I traveled through time just for the jade hairpin, I never wanted to be the queen

Chapter 133 Meeting He Jingcheng

He Tingxi was worried that Ling Xiyue was too tired, so he made some suggestions.

"Xiyue, you must be tired, right? Let's find a place to sit down and rest."

"Okay. That's exactly what I meant." Ling Xiyue nodded.

On the way, Ling Xiyue looked at the duck in the cage from time to time and said proudly: "Let's roast the duck when we get back. I want to taste it carefully."

"Okay, as soon as I get back, I'll tell the kitchen to make you a roast duck." He Tingxi responded with a smile.

"We eat together. Without your guidance, I might not win even if I try 50 times. You are the real hero." Ling Xiyue praised He Tingxi.

He Tingxi smiled when he received the praise.

"Really? Then I have to eat a big duck leg. After all, I'm a big contributor, right?" He Tingxi joked.

"Of course. I'll give you a big duck wing as a reward to show my appreciation." Ling Xiyue said seriously.

"Really? I'm so flattered. Thank you so much for your grace, Your Majesty." He Tingxi said cooperatively.

"No problem." Ling Xiyue pursed her lips to hide her smile.

When He Tingxi saw Ling Xiyue’s face full of joy, he was also very happy.

The two continued walking forward, and after walking for a while, Ling Xiyue suddenly had an idea.

"Tingxi, why don't we find a place where we can sit and listen to stories?" Ling Xiyue suggested.

"Do you like listening to stories?" He Tingxi was a little surprised.

"It's okay, I'm just curious and want to listen." Ling Xiyue responded with a smile.

"Okay, let's go. I know a teahouse with a nice environment and well-told stories. I believe you will like it." He Tingxi agreed readily and thought of a place.

"Then, let's go." Ling Xiyue said excitedly.

He Tingxi took Ling Xiyue towards the teahouse.

Not long after they walked, He Tingxi heard the sound of a carriage driving towards them from behind. He quickly helped Ling Xiyue to the side of the road.

"There's a carriage behind us, please pull over first."

"Okay." Ling Xiyue followed He Tingxi to the side without hesitation.

After standing on the side of the road, He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue stopped and prepared to wait until the carriage left before continuing to move forward.

At this time, Ling Xiyue looked towards the carriage and saw that it was not only very large, but also luxuriously decorated. It was obvious that the person sitting inside was a person of status.

Just when Ling Xiyue wanted to speak to He Tingxi, He Tingxi whispered to Ling Xiyue: "Don't speak, lower your head first, and wait until the carriage passes."

Ling Xiyue was stunned. She was very confused, but she still lowered her head obediently and did not dare to say anything, for fear of doing something wrong.

He Tingxi also lowered his head like Ling Xiyue. He Tingxi spoke only after the carriage passed by them and went away.

"You can raise your head now."

He Tingxi raised his head first, and then Ling Xiyue followed suit.

"Tingxi, what's wrong? Do you know the people in the carriage?" Ling Xiyue suddenly had this premonition.

He Tingxi supported Ling Xiyue and talked as they walked.

"Well, the carriage just now was He Jingcheng's carriage." He Tingxi said seriously.

Ling Xiyue was shocked. She asked in horror: "Did he find us?"

He Tingxi paused, then said soothingly: "Probably not. Have you forgotten that we are in disguise? In this situation, he can't recognize us."

Ling Xiyue heaved a sigh of relief at this time, "That's right, my makeup skills are so good, he shouldn't be able to recognize me."

"Yes, that's right." He Tingxi nodded, but the smile was gone from his face.

Ling Xiyue didn't pay attention to He Tingxi's expression, she just looked forward.

After watching for a while, Ling Xiyue looked down at her belly. After thinking for a while, she suggested: "Tingxi, why don't we go back home? Although he didn't recognize us, safety comes first."

"Okay, I think so too." He Tingxi agreed readily.

So the two of them walked back towards their carriage.

……

He Jingcheng and Fang Di were sitting together in the carriage. Out of boredom, he opened the curtain and looked outside.

Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure, and when he looked closely, his eyes widened.

When he noticed a "familiar" person looking at him, he hurriedly lowered the curtains, looking panicked.

Fang Di noticed something was wrong with He Jingcheng, and asked with concern, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

"I saw He Tingxi." He Jingcheng responded.

Fang Di was stunned. He hurried to the window, opened the curtains and looked out. However, no matter how hard he looked, he saw nothing. The street was full of ordinary people.

Seeing this, He Jingcheng advised: "Put down the curtain, you can't see it."

Fang Di then lowered the curtains and returned to his seat, his face full of confusion.

"Your Highness, there are only civilians outside, not His Highness the Prince of Yan."

He Jingcheng laughed coldly.

"He and Ling Xiyue dressed up as ordinary people, so of course you couldn't recognize them."

"Then, Your Highness, why did you recognize him?" Fang Di was very puzzled.

"Fang Di, what you said is very interesting. Why can I recognize him? He Tingxi and I grew up together. Even if I don't look at his face, I can recognize him at a glance just by looking at his figure." He Jingcheng said very confidently.

"Yes, your highness is right."

Fang Di did not refute, but after thinking about it, he asked curiously: "Then Your Highness Prince Yan, did you not find the prince?"

He Jingcheng couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

"I should have discovered that he recognized my carriage."

Fang Di was silent for a moment, but after a while, he reacted.

"Your Highness, isn't Prince Yan's leg disease still not healed? Didn't you see anyone in a wheelchair just now?" Fang Di said in horror.

"I just thought of this. Could it be that his leg disease has been cured long ago?" He Jingcheng began to think, frowning.

"Remember that His Royal Highness Prince Yan said that we can't go out until March? It's only the end of the month now, and there is still a month left." Fang Di was also very confused.

"Yeah, what's going on? Is he hiding some secret?" He Jingcheng guessed.

"It is very likely, Your Highness. How about bribing the people in Prince Yan's Mansion to see if His Highness Prince Yan's leg disease has been cured?" Fang Di suggested.

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you. Be sure to be careful not to let He Tingxi know." He Jingcheng nodded.

"Don't worry, Your Highness."

……

Shi Hui and Ling Junqi were waiting boredly beside the carriage. When they saw He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue walking towards them, they immediately perked up and went to greet them.

Shi Hui first saw the cage in He Tingxi's hand. After taking a closer look, he saw a duck inside.

"Your Highness, why did you buy a duck? We have plenty in the mansion." Shi Hui was very puzzled. As he spoke, he took the cage and held it in his hands.

Ling Xiyue laughed when she heard the voice.

"Shi Hui, I didn't buy this duck. I caught it with a trap. Isn't that amazing?"

"Ring?"

Shi Hui muttered, and soon he reacted, looked at Ling Xiyue and praised: "My queen, you have great skills."
