Xiao Qingning secretly glanced at Li Zhehao. At this moment, the expression on his face was obviously relaxed. He must have the same feeling as her.

Ye Hengjing didn't notice Xiao Qingning's little move, and continued: "But what moved me the most was that she could understand my thoughts and feelings. Maybe it's because we have similar experiences and we both yearn for freedom. Usually, she can understand what I mean without me saying much. I don't know if you can understand this feeling. When I'm with her, I can really be myself without having to play the role of the Second Prince. This feeling is something that no one else can give me."

After hearing this, Xiao Qingning couldn't agree more and nodded repeatedly.

"I understand what you said very well. Only in front of that person can I be carefree and truly be myself. How can I describe this feeling? It's hard to describe, but it just feels very comfortable and incredible."

Ye Hengjing smiled and nodded when he heard this, "It seems that the Fifth Princess has also experienced such a moment, so she can understand my feelings."

Li Zhehao could naturally empathize with what Ye Hengjing said, and he felt the same way about Ning'er.

Every point Ye Hengjing just said was very accurate, and Li Zhehao had to admit that he was sincere to Xuan'er.

Although Xuan'er is innocent and kind, she has rarely communicated with others since she was a child, and she can't easily open her heart to anyone.

Ye Hengjing knows Xuan'er so well, and it's not just superficial understanding. This must be the result of Xuan'er opening her heart to him.

At this time, Li Zhehao no longer had any doubts about Ye Hengjing's character.

There was no need for Ye Hengjing to spend time deceiving Xuan'er, as it would be of no benefit to him.

If Ye Hengjing wanted to have a marriage between the two countries, then marrying Ning'er, the real princess, would naturally be more beneficial to him.

But Ye Hengjing gave up this good opportunity that was within his reach and made his relationship with Ning'er come true. This actually shows that Ye Hengjing did not have any bad intentions.

Yesterday he just couldn't accept what happened between Xuan'er and Ye Hengjing for a while, so he said that they couldn't think that Ye Hengjing was a good person just because he helped them.

In fact, Li Zhehao knew very well what kind of character Ye Hengjing was.

However, although Ye Hengjing's feelings for Xuan'er were beyond doubt, Li Zhehao couldn't give in so easily.

There are some issues that he still needs to confirm personally.

"Second Prince, I already understand your feelings for Xuan'er, but that doesn't mean I will agree with what's going on between you. Even if you can finally bring Xuan'er back, what can you give her?"

Ye Hengjing had already expected that Li Zhehao would not nod so easily. Facing his questioning, Ye Hengjing looked at him calmly.

Ye Hengjing suddenly smiled. "Your Highness is looking at me like this. You don't think I'm going to give Xuan'er status, wealth and splendor, do you? Xuan'er doesn't lack these things. What's so strange about them? What I can give her is naturally what she doesn't have now, or what she doesn't have enough of, freedom, happiness and joy."

This answer satisfied Li Zhehao, but he was a little curious about how Ye Hengjing, the second prince of Weiyuan Kingdom, could do what he had just said.

"Oh, really? Happiness and joy are fine. Xuan'er loves you now. Being with you may really make her happier than she is now. But you said you can give her freedom. No one will believe you if you tell them. If you were an ordinary person, I could believe you. But if Xuan'er marries you, the prince of Weiyuan, she will just be trapped in another place after traveling through mountains and rivers. How can she be free?"

Ye Hengjing chuckled when he heard this, "Then the prince consort doesn't understand the situation in our country. Women in our country are much freer than here. Women can do anything that men can do. In our country, women can take the imperial examinations, become officials, and do whatever they want. Women are very free, and they won't be criticized even if they don't marry for the rest of their lives. I once told Xuan'er about this, and she longs for such a life very much."

Li Zhehao said disapprovingly: "Your Highness seems not to have understood what I said. Even if the women of Weiyuan Country can live the life they want freely, what does this have to do with Xuan'er? If she becomes your princess, will your father allow her to go out and show her face at will? Even if the customs of Weiyuan Country are more open, they will not allow the royal daughter-in-law to go out and walk around at will, right?"

"Don't be anxious, Prince Consort. Just listen to me. As for my identity that Prince Consort is worried about, it won't trap Xuan'er. On the contrary, with her by my side, I will have more courage to break all these shackles. Prince Consort is right. The royal family has strict rules and is indeed not as free as ordinary people, but I am different from them. Although I was born in the royal family and am the eldest son, I have no intention of fighting for power and yearn for a free and easy life. The throne will be inherited by my elder brother, and I will only be an idle prince in the future. When my elder brother is in power, he will know that I am no threat to him. Then I can take Xuan'er to the outside world to see different scenery. This is our common expectation."

Li Zhehao and Xiao Qingning were both stunned when they heard this. They had never expected Ye Hengjing to have such an idea. This indeed coincided with the life that Li Yaxuan longed for.

Let go of all constraints, travel around the mountains and rivers with your loved one, and watch the sunrise and sunset together. This scene is exciting just to think about.

Regardless of whether Ye Hengjing can eventually do it, the mere fact that he has this intention is enough to move people.

Li Zhehao couldn't help but sigh that even their ideas were so consistent, no wonder Xuan'er liked him.

Just as my cousin often says, the fate between people is really wonderful. Some people are destined to be together for life at first sight, just like my cousin and her husband.

Some people dislike each other at first, but at some point in the future they are suddenly attracted to each other and then it becomes unstoppable, just like him and Ning'er.

Ye Hengjing and Xuan'er are another case. They did not leave a good impression at the beginning, but as they got along with each other bit by bit, they gradually found their common points. Their affection for each other grew day by day, and eventually became inseparable.

No matter which one it is, it is fate destined by God. As long as the feelings between two people are strong enough, nothing can become an obstacle.

Seeing Ye Hengjing openly expressing his love for Xuan'er and imagining their beautiful future life, Li Zhehao suddenly felt that if Xuan'er could marry him, her future life might be very happy. And as a brother, he was willing to help his sister get this happiness.
