Chapter 278 Sauvignon Blanc 35
The news from Hanzhang Palace spread quickly, and with the help of Anian, the big mouth, Rushou and the others soon knew that the Wen Xiaoliu brought back by Xuan was the long-missing King Ji Haoling Jiuyao.

However, no one came to comfort Ling Xi. This was because Yiying, Xie Shuhui, Qianxun and others had confidence in and understanding of Ling Xi. They knew that Ling Xi would not be defeated by this incident.

This is the confidence that Ling Xi has as the Young Master of Haoling.

Ten days later, Chen Rong's Xiaoyanxi held the Chishui Autumn Competition. Ling Xi and Ruoshou led people to participate in the competition. Anian, Fangfeng Yiying and Xie Shuhui were all participants.
Xiao Yanxi is a descendant of the royal family of Chenrong. After Chenrong was destroyed, he surrendered to Xiyan and married the only daughter of the chief of the Chishui tribe.

Afterwards, Xiao Yanxi was highly valued by King Xiyan and became the most important minister of King Xuanyuan, in charge of the Central Plains region that originally belonged to Chenrong Kingdom, which was considered a kind of appeasement to the Central Plains clans.

The Chishui Autumn Tournament was a competition held after Xiao Yanxi took over Zhongyuan. At the beginning, it was just a small-scale competition held by Xiao Yanxi to stimulate the Zhongyuan clans. He wanted to let the children of Zhongyuan not be confined to one side and become arrogant, and let the children of each clan understand that there are always people better than you, so that they would be humble, studious and hardworking.

But because the effect is very good, many clans want to have this opportunity to train their children, and more and more clans in the Wilderness are participating in the competition.

Later, aristocratic families also joined in, and the Chishui Autumn Competition became a grand event in the entire Wilderness.

The special thing about this competition is that it is not based on country, but rather a competition and exchange between families, so it transcends national boundaries.

King Xiyan and King Haoling would always send ministers to deliver generous prizes, which attracted many talented young people to participate.

For nearly a hundred years, the Chishui Autumn Competition has been hosted by Ling Xi and Ruoshou. In the beginning, the two of them would play, but later they won too many times and it became boring, so they just watched the competition from the audience.

This time, Ling Xi was accompanied by Xuan Xuan and Wen Xiaoliu. It was the first time for both of them to go to Chenyi City, so Ling Xi naturally had to take more care of them.

Haoling is a land of water, with rivers and lakes scattered throughout the country. Like previous years, Rushou chose to travel by boat.

After getting on the boat, Ling Xi wanted to look at Wen Xiaoliu who came with her. Her appearance had not yet recovered and she still looked like a man.

Speaking of which, this was the first time she had seen her nominal "sister" since the incident in Hanzhang Palace.

She is very busy on weekdays, and she spends most of her time in Xuan's palace, so we really can't see each other.

Sitting together, Ling Xi felt very comfortable, but Wen Xiaoliu was a little embarrassed to talk to Ling Xi.

Wen Xiaoliu did not expect that the girl Xi she knew was actually her sister. She felt very complicated for a moment.

"In two hours, we will arrive at the city of Chenyi in the Central Plains. This is a big city in the Central Plains with many aristocratic families. So if you encounter some arrogant children from aristocratic families, if they go too far, Brother Xuan and Sister Xuan don't have to be too polite. Just don't let them bully you. By the way, Shuhui and Yiying get along well with some people from the Central Plains clans. If you want to go somewhere to play, you can take them with you."

Ling Xi sat leisurely, holding a cup of scented tea in her hand, looking at Xuan and Wen Xiaoliu and giving them careful instructions.

These clans in the Central Plains are all very arrogant and conceited, but things would be much easier if we could truly make them respect us.

Xuan has a special identity, so naturally many people look down on this grandson of the King of Xiyan, and Wen Xiaoliu has not yet recovered his status. Ling Xi has to keep a closer eye on these two people.

Hearing Ling Xi's words, Xi Xuan knew that she was doing this for his own good. Although it was for Hao Ling's face, he still smiled faintly and said, "Thank you, Xi, for reminding me."

When Wen Xiaoliu heard Ling Xi calling her sister, she was stunned for a long time. After coming to her senses, she nodded quickly: "Thank you, Axi."

Ling Xi smiled: "It's okay."

After arriving at Chenyi City by boat, Ling Xi saw the people who came to pick them up as soon as she got ashore.

The young master of the Chishui clan, Chishui Fenglong, and his young lady, Chenrong Xinyue.

If it was Hao Ling from a few hundred years ago, it would not be worth it for the young master of the Chishui clan, one of the four major clans, to come and greet him personally. However, after more than two hundred years of development, Hao Ling's strength has increased significantly, while the power of the clan has gradually weakened under Ling Xi's continuous operation. Therefore, when facing Hao Ling today, the clans naturally cannot be as high and mighty as before.

Chen Rong Xinyue saw the woman in red standing at the bow from afar and couldn't help feeling excited.

She pulled the handsome young man beside her and said coquettishly, "Brother, Wang Ji and the others are here."

Chishui Fenglong had no choice but to pamper his sister: "Okay, okay, aren't they here? Xinyue, don't be so excited."

However, when he saw the big ship in the distance, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

It seems like I haven't seen that person for more than 30 years. I wonder how she is doing.

Chen Rong Xinyue was so focused on looking at people that she didn't notice her brother beside her at all.

When the boat reached the shore, Ling Xi got off first, followed by Anian, Rushou, Xuan and Wen Xiaoliu, and then Fangfeng Yiying and Xie Shuhui.

Chishui Fenglong and Chen Rong Xinyue bowed to Ling Xi together: "Greetings to the Second Princess and the Third Princess."

Ling Xi helped Xinyue up and smiled gently: "Fenglong, Xinyue, it's been a long time since we last met. Are you all right?"

Chishui Fenglong was a very handsome man, but at this moment he smiled like a boy next door, looking naive and even a little silly: "We are fine, how is Princess Wang?"

When he saw Ling Xi again, Chi Shui Fenglong's heart began beating faster and his ears turned red.

He felt that the woman in front of him seemed to be getting more and more beautiful.

Chen Rong Xinyue pushed Chishui Fenglong aside, then held Ling Xi's hand, her excitement evident in her words, her voice full of joy: "Second Princess, you finally came to Chenyi City. We haven't seen each other for more than 20 years. I wanted to see you at the previous two autumn competitions, but I heard that you were traveling, so I didn't see you."

Ling Xi nodded to Xin Yue: "It's been more than 20 years since we last met. How have you been recently? Have you been bullied?"

Chen Rong Xinyue felt a pang of bitterness and touching in her heart. She had been trapped in Xiyan as a hostage for so many years, and only one Princess Haoling II had asked her if she had ever suffered or been bullied.

"No," Xinyue shook her head, "Ever since you, Second Princess, taught me magic, no one dares to bully me."

Anian stood beside Ling Xi with a puffy face and looked unconvinced. Her sister was monopolized by this man as soon as she arrived. What was going on?

Chen Rong Xinyue excitedly pulled Ling Xi along and walked towards the post station of Haoling Kingdom.

The rest of the people followed behind them. Chishui Fenglong wanted to talk to Ling Xi, but was blocked by Xinyue and had no chance.

Wen Xiaoliu was walking in the middle. Seeing that Ling Xi and Chen Rong Xinyue looked very familiar with each other, she couldn't help but ask Xie Shuhui who was standing beside her: "Miss Xie, it turns out that Ah Xi also knows someone from Chen Rong's family?"

Xie Shuhui folded her hands, pursed her lips and smiled dignifiedly: "Your Highness has brought people to participate in the Chishui Autumn Competition several times. Over time, he got to know Master Chenrong and Miss, and they have a very good relationship."

Wen Xiaoliu: "I understand. Thank you, Miss Xie."

Xie Shuhui: "You are welcome, Princess."

Only then did Xuan realize that Ah Xi was actually familiar with the young master of Chen Rong. His eyes darkened. This was not good for him.
