A hint of contemplation flashed across his eyes, and his face revealed the same thoughtful expression as in the tavern.
After a while, Xie Xingyun destroyed the letter and swept his gaze at the little peregrine falcon.
The latter flapped its wings cooperatively and stood firmly on his shoulder.
A few days later, at the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor.
Eldest Princess Jing An walked in from the main entrance in a luxurious palace dress. There were two maidservants with their heads lowered beside her. Both of them were holding a few portraits.
When the patrolling guards saw her, they all said respectfully, “Greetings, Your Highness.”

“Young Master is at the Supporting Wind Water Pavilion.”
Eldest Princess Jing An was about to leave, but she stopped in her tracks. “Has Yun’er been out recently?”
“Young Master went out three days ago. I’m not sure if he went out these few days,” the guard in the lead replied.
Eldest Princess Jing An frowned and walked straight to the Supporting Wind Water Pavilion without saying a word.
At the Water Pavilion, Xie Xingyun was leaning against the pillar and crushing fish feed with his icy-jade-like hands. With a flick, the fish feed fell into the beautiful Flametail Fish’s stomach.
There were about a dozen of them in the lake, each only the size of a palm. At this moment, they were all in front of the man.
Xiao Zheng’s voice came from not far away, “Your Highness.”
Hurried footsteps followed, and were accompanied by Eldest Princess Jing An’s voice of helplessness. “Yun’er, 1 asked you to choose a noble lady you like that day. Why haven’t you done anything for a few days? Have you forgotten about it?”
Xie Xingyun said coldly, “There’s no one that 1 like.”
Eldest Princess Jing An looked at him disapprovingly. “One’s marriage is decided by one’s parents. One should marry a virtuous wife. Whether you like the person or not is secondary. The most important thing is to start a family first.”
Xie Xingyun did not say anything.
Eldest Princess Jing An continued, “If you see the person, you might change your mind. No matter how good the portrait is, it can’t beat the real person. I have checked these few people carefully. Their backgrounds are very good, and their speech and demeanor are befitting. Don’t you like the type of girl from the Bai Family?”
This was also the purpose of her banquet. For a portrait to be good, one only needed to hire a good artist. The matchmaker could brag all she could, but one only needed to meet the person to know how true it was.
Xie Xingyun raised his eyebrows.
Seeing that he had some reaction, Eldest Princess Jing An smiled and said, “Although Bai Xianyu was born well, these are also delicate and beautiful women. Is there none that you like?”
As she spoke, she waved her hand, and the two maids unfurled the painting in their hands.
Xiao Zheng stood at the side and could not help but take a look. At first glance, he thought that she looked familiar.

It was not known if the artist had done it on purpose or if it was the way it was.
He glanced at Xie Xingyun’s expression and lowered his head.
Eldest Princess Jing An pointed at one of the paintings. The woman in it was beautiful and smiled without showing her teeth. She looked very proper and shy. She said with a smile, “This is the eldest daughter of the Censor, Lu Douzhi. Her name is Lu Xi. When she was young, she had even said that she wanted to marry you.”
Xie Xingyun looked at it without much interest. “Mother, don’t be anxious. I’m still young and have no intention of getting married.”
How could he have no intention of getting married?
Eldest Princess Jing An cursed in her heart. A few days ago, who was the one who had asked her to go to the Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor to propose marriage?
However, he had already been slapped in the face by Bai Xianyu. If she was so thick-skinned as to still show up at her door, she would simply embarrass the royal family of Great Kui.
Although there seemed to be another rumor in the marketplace…
Eldest Princess Jing An pondered for a moment and asked a slightly strange question, “Is Bai Xianyu regretting it?”
