The Princess Has a Name: Xue Ke

Ye Feng: "..."

Ye Feng's mind went blank.

The tent was filled with many things: bookshelves, screens, and sleeping/resting areas.

When Ye Feng entered this place, he assumed that the person bathing behind the screen was Xue Qinghe. Intending to tease Xue Qinghe, Ye Feng went directly around the screen and walked to the bathtub.

Ye Feng was stunned.

Ye Feng knew he was wrong.

Because the person in the bathtub was not Xue Qinghe, but a woman who looked similar to Xue Qinghe.

Ye Feng snapped out of his daze. His thoughts raced.

If Ye Feng's guess is correct, this woman who looks very much like Xue Qinghe is Princess Xue Ke.

Wrong!

Ye Feng was summoned here by the Crown Prince's attendant. However, the person Ye Feng saw was not Xue Qinghe, but Princess Xue Ke.

Conspiracy!

Ye Feng finally understood. This was a conspiracy. A conspiracy prepared for him.

During the day, Ye Feng refused to become the Imperial Son-in-Law of the Heaven Dou Empire. That night, His Your Majesty Xue Ye prepared this elaborate scheme to force Ye Feng to Imperial Son-in-Law of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Ye Feng knew that Xue Qinghe was actually Qian Renxue in disguise. Qian Renxue represented the interests of the Spirit Hall. Ye Feng's talent was exceptional. Qian Renxue would never push Ye Feng towards the Heaven Dou Empire.

Of course, it's possible that if the Spirit Hall can't obtain Ye Feng, Qian Renxue might destroy Ye Feng or set a Ye Feng for him. However, this possibility is almost nonexistent.

Because Ye Feng never said he was unwilling to join or help the Spirit Hall.

As for Ning Fengzhi, it's even more impossible for him. Ning Fengzhi would never do such a thing.

As for Jian Sword Saint Chen Xin Sword Saint Chen Xin, perhaps he might do such a thing. However, unless the person bathing in the tub is Xue Qinghe, Sword Saint Chen Xin would not be willing to do such a thing for Ye Feng, even if he were chasing after Xue Qinghe.

Therefore, there is only one mastermind behind this, and that is His Your Majesty Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Ye Feng rejected His Your Majesty Xue Ye, but His Your Majesty Xue Ye played dirty tricks on Ye Feng at night.

Ye Feng took a step forward, knowing it was impossible, but still wanted to leave quietly before Princess Xue Ke noticed.

"Xiao Ai, give me a towel to dry me off. I need to get dressed; I have to represent Father Emperor to see Ye Feng tonight!"

Just as Ye Feng was about to leave silently, Princess Xue Ke had already stood up in the bathtub. The sound of Ye Feng's footsteps when he entered had startled Princess Xue Ke was resting with her eyes closed in the tub.

Suddenly, a completely naked body appeared right under Ye Feng's nose.

Ye Feng was stunned.

It's perfectly normal for a man to be stunned when he sees a woman's naked body.

"Xiao Ai?"

Princess Xue Ke, not receiving a response from her maid, turned her gaze to Ye Feng.

At this moment, exactly three seconds had passed since Princess Xue Ke stood up.

In three seconds, Ye Feng came to his senses and turned to leave.

"If you're not Xiao Ai, then who are you?"

Princess Xue Ke asked instinctively. Then, realizing Princess Xue Ke Ye Feng was a man, she instinctively looked at herself. She was taking a bath, after all.

"Ah!"

A deafening high-pitched scream emanated from Princess Xue Ke's throat.

Ye Feng sighed. He knew he couldn't leave without a word tonight.

If Ye Feng's guess is correct, a maid will enter the tent at this moment. She will serve as a witness, proving that Ye Feng saw Princess Xue Ke's naked body. Ultimately, Ye Feng will be forced, under pressure, to become the Imperial Son-in-Law of the Heaven Dou Empire. After all, that's how it's always portrayed in TV dramas.

Ye Feng stood still, looking at the tent's only entrance. He waited quietly for someone to come in. Three seconds passed, but unfortunately, no maidservant entered the tent.

"I was wrong?"

Ye Feng raised an eyebrow slightly.

Things did not unfold as Ye Feng had imagined.

Five seconds passed, and still no maid entered the tent.

This is absolutely not normal.

Ye Feng's thoughts began to race.

The person taking a bath in the tent is none other than Princess Xue Ke of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Princess Xue Ke screamed so loudly that it's impossible for the maids serving her and the guards protecting her outside the tent not to come in and check what was going on. What if the princess had been assassinated?

But five seconds passed, and still no one came in to ask, not even a maid. It seemed that someone had given orders to the maids beforehand, and had also dismissed the guards protecting Princess Xue Ke.

"Then there's only one explanation."

Ye Feng was very clever. He turned around and looked at Princess Xue Ke behind him again.

After analysis, the mastermind behind this must be His Your Majesty Xue Ye.

His Your Majesty Xue Ye is once again defying expectations. There's only one explanation: His Your Majesty Xue Ye hasn't given up on making Ye Feng the Imperial Son-in-Law of the Heaven Dou Empire. Therefore, His Your Majesty Xue Ye has broken with convention, creating a beautiful and unforgettable meeting for Ye Feng and Princess Xue Ke.

"Who exactly are you?" Princess Xue Ke asked Ye Feng, squatting in the bathtub.

"Ye Feng," Ye Feng replied.

"Ye Feng? Ye Feng from the Shrek Academy?" Princess Xue Ke asked.

"Yes." Ye Feng nodded.

"You... you have such audacity, daring to break into the tent and peep... peep at me while I'm bathing!" Princess Xue Ke rebuked angrily.

"I'm not that bored. Stop cursing, you've been sold out by your father." Ye Feng said calmly.

"My father? What does this have to do with my father?" Princess Xue Ke asked Ye Feng curiously.

Ye Feng then recounted his earlier speculations to Princess Xue Ke. When Princess Xue Ke heard that Emperor Your Majesty Xue Ye intended to marry her to Ye Feng, Princess Xue Ke eyes glazed over. She seemed completely unaware of the matter until this point.

Princess Xue Ke listened to Ye Feng's detailed analysis and believed half of what Ye Feng.

"Xiao Ai, come in here!"

Princess Xue Ke could not accept Ye Feng's speculation and called out to Xiao Ai outside the tent.

"Xiao Ai, did you hear me? Come in here!"

"Xiao Yi, come in here."

"Hong Meng, are you outside?"

Princess Xue Ke called out the names of several maids in succession. But not a single maid entered the tent to answer Princess Xue Ke calls. There wasn't a soul outside the tent. Within a hundred meters of the tent, not a single person could be seen. Everyone had long since been summoned away by His Your Majesty Xue Ye.

Princess Xue Ke was stunned. Now she was certain that she had really been sold out by her father.

At Princess Xue Ke's request, Ye Feng turned around and let Princess Xue Ke get dressed.

"Ye Feng, this is for you."

Princess Xue Ke flicked her finger, sending something flying in front of Ye Feng.

It was a blue, completely transparent rhomboid crystal, with what looked like rippling water inside.

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, then blurted out. "Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud!"
