Chapter 590

The next day after the affair about Princess Qingbi, Xia Houqi conferred the t.i.tle of Concubine Qing on her . Since that day, Princess Qingbi had been consigned to limbo . In the 10 years thereafter, she spent the rest of her life in an abyss of misery . She never met Xia Houqi again .

No one from the North Qing bothered to see her . But the alliance between North Qing and Da Xia had, due to their nominal marriage, lasted for nearly 10 years .

Then Xia Houqi grew more powerful and a riot broke out in the North Qing . Da Xia grasped the chance to annex the North Qing .

On the afternoon of Princess Qingbi’s conferral, Xia Houqi agreed to let Ye Lingyue resign as the Cauldron Holder but retained her t.i.tle of Marquis Yue . Moreover, Ye Lingyue was given a vast area from the east to the south of Xixia Plain including the Ancient Forest as her territory .

“Your Majesty, I do appreciate it . ”

In court, Ye Lingyue’s voice was quite clear . The man sitting on the throne was at a total loss after having the imperial edict announced, losing all the joy on his handsome face .

He slowly closed his eyes and did not say anything .

All the officials were in silence and then left one by one .

They knew that the emperor felt quite lonely and disappointed at the moment .

“Thank you, Xia Houqi . ”

Ye Lingyue said gently . She was the last one to leave .

When she walked out of court, Xia Houqi opened his eyes abruptly . He felt as if his heart had been taken out when he found no one else in court .

Ye Lingyue was just like a wonderful dream in the life of Xia Houqi .

Now he had to wake up .

Outside the palace, the sunlight was so favorable . Ye Lingyue drew a deep breath and there was a big smile on her happy face .

After resignation, Ye Lingyue had more spare time suddenly .

After destroying the Hong Manor and the Buddhist Monks Sect, the Ghost Sect developed quite well in the Xia City .

Moreover, Ye Lingyue made a big fortune in the gambling house . Then it seemed she spoke much louder than others .

Considering that Ye Lingyue would go to her territory, Yan Che and L’ai Gu began to transfer the properties of the Ghost Sect .

After Ye Huangyu got married to Nie Fengxing, she discussed with her daughter Ye Lingyue before deciding to stay in Da Xia and a.s.sist Nie Fengxing in military affairs .

Ye Lingyue did not try to change Ye Huangyu’s mind since the most important thing was that her mother could live a happy life .

At first, Ye Huangyu felt reluctant to let her daughter go to the faraway Xixia Plain . But then she agreed since Ye Lingyue could not make full use of her talent here in Da Xia .

Several days later, members of the Ye family arrived in the Xia City and prepared to settle down .

But Ye Liuyun decided to go back to the sect and continue learning after the imperial contest .

Earlier, Ye Liuyun was not familiar with Ye Lingyue . However, the imperial contest brought the two closer . They got on well and became good friends since they had similar age and personality .

When Ye Liuyun was about to leave, Ye Lingyue and Ye Yinshuang accompanied her to the city gate .

“Sisters, you can stop here . ” Ye Liuyun smiled and paused .

“Lingyue, if you really want to improve your martial skills, the best way is to join a sect . I heard from my master that all sects and factions, including the 3 major sects, enroll new learners every year . You can keep an eye on this if you feel interested . ” Ye Liuyun’s sect did not rank among the best .

But even such a second-cla.s.s sect had enabled Ye Liuyun to develop martial kills that were far better than those of her peers .

Earlier, Ye Liuyun relied on a rare opportunity to join the sect .

“Thank you for reminding me, sister . But I love freedom and there are too many rules in the big sects . So they may not be suitable for me . I had better be the female feudal lord . ” Ye Lingyue smiled .

Everyone had their own way of living . Seeing that Ye Lingyue had already made the decision, Ye Liuyun did not try to persuade further . Then Ye Liuyun bid farewell to Ye Lingyue and Ye Yinshuang before they parted at the city gate .

Ye Lingyue and Ye Yinshuang went back to the Xia City and happened to find a fair where there were a lot of people .

Ye Yinshuang loved the hustle and bustle and then dragged Ye Lingyue into the crowd .

Unfortunately, the two were dispersed soon since there were too many people .

Several steps further, there was a noise and a large number of people gathering together, seeming to quarrel on something .

“La.s.s, you have beaten somebody and then want to leave?”

Ye Lingyue had intended to leave all this alone . But she heard a familiar voice and recognized the person as Yunsheng .

On the night of the wedding banquet, Ye Lingyue was so busy catering to the guests that she did not have time to attend to Yunsheng . When Ye Lingyue thought of Yunsheng, she had already disappeared

The two seemed like old friends . Ye Lingyue regretted not having asked the dwelling place of Yunsheng in Xia City .

Ye Lingyue and her mother had been saved by Yunsheng . So Ye Lingyue should pay a visit to Yunsheng .

Unexpectedly, Ye Lingyue met Yunsheng once again . Then she moved forward .

The place where the quarrel happened was a restaurant with luxurious decoration .

The quarrel attracted a large crowd before the restaurant .

The situation was a little chaotic . A 4-year-old child was held by a woman and they were both in rags, looking like beggars in the Xia City .

The woman was in tears and the child had a serious wound on the head .

Yunsheng stopped a woman .

That woman looked familiar to Ye Lingyue . Then it turned out that she was the maid of the Dan Palace accompanying Xue Pianran outside the Feng Manor that night .

It seemed that the maid had wounded the child .

“Humph! The child has stolen something from Sacred Maiden . I have just spanked him slightly . Who knows that he is so weak? He wounded his head himself and then put the blame on us . ” The maid raised her head quite high, looking like a proud peac.o.c.k .

She took pride in being a member of the Dan Palace and looked down on the commoners in Da Xia .

“My child did not steal anything . He was just too hungry . Since the steamed bun has already fallen onto the ground and you did not want to eat it anymore, he picked it up . ” The woman holding the child cried out .

The child in her arms was thin and weak and in his hands was still the half steamed bun .

The steamed bun was dirty . Obviously, it had already been bitten and thrown away .

“Bah! He could pick up something to eat . But why did he dirty the clothes of our Sacred Maiden? Do you know how expensive the clothes are? You cannot buy them all your life . ”

“How much? I will make it up to you for him . ” Yunsheng looked angry .

She was not a good-willed person in all cases . As a doctor, however, she could not see others bullying the weak .
