Hi Mi!
I'm not sure what you mean by ``fontspec with default setting'' --- but
what seems to be very common is:
\usepackage{fontspec}
\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
and when you specify your main font, you should use the common ligatures
option:
\setmainfont[Ligatures=Common]{Minion Pro}
Does that work for you?
