The Princess And The Lord

"You want to stay at Lord long Ming Manor?!" Governor Yang surprised.

"Yes, I helped Madame Zhao prepare her wedding banquet because she didn't have any relatives so she asked for my help," Yang Xi Ying said. 

"Xi Ying, this is not good." Yang Xi Ying's mother looked worried, "What would people say if the Yang family's daughter lived somewhere other than her own residence, people would gossip about us, besides Hei Shen must have enough people to prepare for the wedding" Yang Xi Ying mother gently persuade his daughter, she is a typical noble daughter, gentle, gentle, and very attentive to people's opinions.

Yang Xi Ying was also like this until he met Lory, she didn't really care anymore about what people thought of her, as long as it didn't damage her reputation too much.

Yang Xi Ying stopped paying attention to them, after all the worlds were ruled by the strong because she was the wife of the Jiu Yun sect master and a close friend of the Iron Queen, no one would dare to speak ill about her in public. 

Yang Xi Ying smiled calmly, "People will say that the relationship between the Yang family and the Hei Shen sect is quite good, didn't people always want to make a connection with Long Ming but none of them could even see Long Ming's shadow but this daughter not only could sit in the same table with Long Ming but also could come and go Hei Shen Manor at will, so how can this be such a bad thing" Yang Xi Ying's smile that did not reach his eyes remain, she hated how weak his mother was, no wonder even though she was the official wife everyone could bully her. 

"Also, there are no women in Hei Shen's manor, only the servants and Luo Ri Yi who didn't understand the customs of noble marriage so she asked me for help, so how can I refuse her request."

Madam Yang Smile weakly "But…you don't have to stay there, you can come in the morning and return in the evening, isn't that work too?" she was half pleading Yang Xi Ying.

Yang Xi Ying knew that her mother was still apprehensive about her decision to stay at Zhao Li Xin's residence but she couldn't bear to stay in Yang Manor any longer, because she was young she never felt safe in Yang's manor, every day she had to remain vigilant. from his father's conspiracy concubines then after he felt the comfort of living in Zhao Li Xin Manor and the Jiu Yun sect she became used to it. 

"That's right Xi Ying, it would be bad in public eyes if you stay in other people's house when you have your own family house, besides your father was the Governor of sun Jan city, what would people think about me, about us… can't you understand that?" Governor Yang also reluctant to let Yang Xi Ying stay at Long Ming Manor, he worries what other officials would gossip about him especially after the commotion last night who knew if the rumors already spread on the street.

Governor Yang massaged his head tiredly. "Xi Ying just follow your mother's order…"

Yang Xi Ying took a deep breath, these two people only care about their image and reputation, but they don't care how she feels. 

"Xi Ying will stay with me at my Manor"

Everyone startled by the sudden melodious voice that came from the door, a man with modest but elegant white robes enter the room, the man looks pristine and refined like a pure jade, his expression was calm and tranquil but his eyes were sharp and cold like a dagger.

"Brother Li, your home!" Immediately her gloomy expression replaced with a bright smile.

"En, I'm sorry it takes longer than I expected" Li Mo Zhen smile lovingly at her. then he turns his head towards his inlaw and cupped his fist courteously "Son-in-law greeting Father and mother in law" he respectfully said.

"Mo Zhen, you don't have to be so polite." The governor's face beamed with joy, having a strong sect master as a son-in-law was one thing he was very proud of, not only Li, Mo Zhen had good looks and good manners he was also very strong and the leader of the most powerful sect in the kingdom, was something that the governor like to show off to his fellow officials. 

"Welcome to Mo Zhen's house, by the way, Mo Zhen, what do you mean about Xi Ying living in your own house?" Madame Yang's eyes sparkled when she saw Li Mo Zhen like her husband. She was also very satisfied with her son-in-law. Because of the problems with Han Yuan, Yang Xi Ying's reputation was ruined, everyone said no one wanted to marry his daughter.

Madam Yang was drowning in grief until she fell ill and was bedridden for weeks but who would have thought that the daughter that everyone mocked could catch the attention of the sect master of the Jiu Yun sect, not only he marry Yang Xi Ying in the grand marriage he also treated her daughter very well too. Li Mo Zhen's action was like a heavy slap to everyone who mocked her and Yang Xi Ying. Today, no one dared to say anything in front of him even the concubines who used to raise their chins like peacocks in front of her have no choice but lowered their heads whenever they saw her. 

"I bought a manor near the Yang Manor, so Xi Ying could stay there whenever she visit Mother and father" he explained calmly with a gentle smile plastered on his face, no one noticed a faint glint in his eyes. 

Li Mo Zhen doesn't really like his in-laws, even though they all love Yang Xi Ying but their love is too shallow and superficial. Governor Yang was a kind man, very loving to the elders and very gentle to all of his wives. The problem was that the man was too weak with his wives he never strictly disciplined them when they were wrong the worst thing he does was reprimand them, meanwhile, Yang Xi Ying's mother was too meek and quiet even though she was the hostess of the Yang family, because of this Yang Xi Ying force to protect herself.

Yang Xi Ying never felt at home in Yang Manor, through her adult life she had been disappointed way too many times by her parents too many times, which made her impatient to break away from her own family. When she despaired came  Han Yuan, the man who gave Yang Xi Ying a perfect illusion about the future made yang Xi Ying hopeful again, she thought Han Yuan was the person he had been waiting for.

Young and gullible she pins all her hope to Han Yuan, she didn't realize she had been fooled by that man and become a joke in the city, Yang Xi Ying father did try to reprimand her but it because he thinks Han Yuan position is too low from her, it would be an embarrassment if she married a lowly man like Han Yuan, however, this only make Yang Xi Ying more adamant to stay with Han Yuan.

Fortunately, Yang Xi Ying met Lory and Zhao Li Xin, all of a sudden she was struck by the reality of what kinda loser Han Yuan was. It was as if she had been poured with a bucket of cold water, she was finally able to think clearly and let go of his obsession. Li Mo Zhen couldn't imagine what would happen to Yang Xi Ying if she didn't meet Lory, for this alone, Li Mo Zhen felt very grateful to Lory and Zhao Li Xin. 

"You bought a manor?" Yang Xi Ying surprised.

"Yes, The Manor is right beside Hei Shen Manor, we can ask permission to make a connecting door so you can visit Lo….Madam Zhao anytime you want" 

"Really!" she clasped her hand in front of her chest excitedly.

Yang Xi Ying's Mother and Father's eyes twitched, they had never seen their daughter look so happy. Yan Xi Ying grew up as the perfect noble daughter, calm, calm, and a little aloof, Yang Xi Ying never showed any interest in being close to anyone, not with her parents or other siblings so they were stunned by her desire to be close with Long Ming's wife.

Madam Yang was also felt a bit bitter that yang Xi Ying would be happier to live closely with her friends than her. 

In the end, the Governor had no reason to keep Yang Xi Ying in his residence, Yang Xi Ying was so happy he left the room with glittering eyes filled with joy she knew she couldn't intrude on Zhao Li Xin's privacy all the time, even though Lory wouldn't care but Zhao Li Xin is a different matter, it's better not to provoke the Demon Lord any further so having her own place near Lory house is the best resolution. 

Yang Xi Ying holds Li Mo Zhen's hands as they walked together. "Thank you very much for the house, now I can spend more time with Lory without having to stay at her house," he said happily. 

"I know you are happy but please don't forget your husband needs his wife's attention too" he flicks her forehead lightly.

"I won't – I won't" she chuckled. But then all of the sudden, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared with the arrival of two people in front of her.
