Chapter 1543: Glazed Purple Star 82

him."On their turf, they wouldn't make a move unless they were absolutely sure they could kill them in one strike. They wouldn't be stupid enough to risk it otherwise.Furthermore, she didn't feel an...In the palace, some were happy while others grieved.

Huangpu Qingyun could no longer laugh.

"Xier, don't you give me even a single chance"

Huangfu Qingyun told himself in his heart that as long as Xi'er opened her mouth, he would really give up.

Even though he knew the answer, he still fantasized that Xi'er would say no, and he could keep waiting...

"Sorry."

Huangfu Qingyun closed his eyes, tears swirling in his pupils. He knew this was it. Xi'er had refused him so many times, she never hesitated, dragged her feet, or gave him false hope. Over the years, he had always hoped for a chance to be with her again, but in the end, he was just wishful thinking.

"I... I understand."

Huangfu Qingyun's voice trembled, struggling to calm down. He opened his eyes, looked at Feng Lingxi, and squeezed out a smile that was worse than crying, "I won't bother you again in the future. I wish you happiness."

Feng Lingxi bowed apologetically, and Huangfu Qingyun retracted her gaze, nodding politely towards Emperor Yuan Zhao, "Since the marriage alliance is not possible, this palace will return first. Farewell."

Take care!

As Huangfu Qingyun passed by Feng Lingxi, he whispered softly. He thought this was his last goodbye to Feng Lingxi; after this, they probably wouldn't meet again.

"Take care, and also sorry."

Feng Ling Xi's words were not soft, Huang Fu Qing Yun heard them, but endured and didn't turn back, walking towards outside the palace. He didn't want to stay and make her more embarrassed.

"The marriage proposal from the Xia Dynasty has already been withdrawn. Let's pretend it never happened. However, there is one thing I still want to ask Princess Shengluan."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Emperor Yuan Zhao coughed lightly, hoping Feng Lingxi would notice his action and open her mouth to give him a check-up. However, Feng Lingxi seemed not to have heard anything, just waiting for him to speak.

"About your marriage to Prince Chen and the matter of separation, yesterday I specifically went to ask Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager told me that when the late Emperor bestowed the marriage, he said that you and Prince Chen could not divorce, nor could he divorce his wife. I wonder if you remember this"

Wind Ling's eyebrows rose slightly, "How did this topic suddenly come up Is this to ask her opinion on behalf of the Empress Dowager, or is there another reason"

Du Gu Cheng was also surprised. Did the Emperor ask this to try and get him and Xi'er back together

"Your Majesty, the divorce papers have been given to Prince Chen. My husband and I are no longer connected. I am afraid that due to the Emperor's previous decree, Feng Lingxi may not be able to fulfill it." Feng Lingxi finished speaking and bowed apologetically. Now that she holds the status of a princess from Xi Gu Nation, even if it was the previous Emperor's decree, she could consider this marriage invalid.

"Does Prince Chen think the same way" Emperor Yuan Zhao looked at Dugu City.

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi and nodded towards Emperor Yuan Zhao, "I respect her choice."

"In that case, this matter I shall not concern myself with, lest it damage the harmony between our two nations."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Dugu Cheng and Feng Lingxi simultaneously spoke in gratitude. Emperor Yuan Zhao looked at Feng Lingxi, his eyes filled with countless thoughts. However, Feng Lingxi ignored him, looking instead at Lu Nian. Lu Nian immediately stepped forward, "Your Majesty, if there's nothing else, then I shall take my leave."

"The Crown Prince will stay, you should all withdraw first."

Feng Lingxi and Lu Nianfu, after finishing their goodbyes, went out.

"Crown Prince, do you know why I have kept you behind"

Emperor Yuan Zhao spoke, Dugu City looked at him, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know."

"You've seen today's events. Feng Lingxi's status is no longer what it was, and I cannot make decisions about her marriage. She rejected the alliance from the Araxia Dynasty. She is no longer a subject of our Great Yuan Dynasty. As for your relationship with her, I am powerless to intervene."

"This minister thanks Your Majesty for your concern. It's just that Xi'er's heart is no longer with this minister, and it cannot be recovered."

Although I don't know what Emperor Yuan Zhao meant, he can't let Xi'er return to his side in front of the emperor now. Today, Emperor Yuan Zhao's attitude was a bit off. If this were any other day, he would definitely stand by the Empress Dowager's side.

"Enough, I'm tired. You handle this yourselves."

After finishing his words, Emperor Yuan Zhao coughed a few times. Dugucheng clasped his hands together and said, "Your Majesty, please take care of your health."

"My illness has not been a recent development, the imperial physicians are at a loss, and how is Prince Chen's health these days I see your complexion has improved quite a bit from before."

獨孤城 understood, Emperor Yuan Zhao probably wanted Xi'er to see him. He had been coughing in the palace for days, and likely wanted Xi'er to take the initiative to treat him.

"To be frank with Your Majesty, when I was on my way to Mingde Town, I fell seriously ill. Luckily, Xi'er came to my rescue and treated me. My body is much better now."

"Feng Lingxi's medical skills are becoming increasingly refined. If there were such a divine physician in my realm, surely there would be no illness in the land."

Du Gu Cheng said calmly, "But now, she is the princess of Xi Gu Nation. I am incompetent and cannot help Your Majesty relieve his worries."

"Prince Chen, I know you still have her in your heart. Have you ever thought about getting back together with her She has already given birth to three children for you. A woman's life, giving birth to three children... If you treat her sincerely, she will definitely stay by your side and spend the rest of her life with you."

Emperor Yuan Zhao thought that Feng Lingxi's ability to cure his illness was a great help, and he came up with the idea of having Dugu City and Feng Lingxi reunite. As long as he got better, he wouldn't worry about lack of successors. It would be better to win Feng Lingxi over than to make her unhappy.

"As for me, I'd like to, but the Empress Dowager forbids it. Besides, Xi'er doesn't have any feelings for me. The Emperor has seen this too. Even if we had three children, Xi'er is still like an unmarried woman, beautiful and alluring, still attracting many suitors."

Emperor Yuan Zhao glanced at Dugu City, this statement wasn't false.

“I will tell the Empress Dowager about this. You should spend more time with Feng Lingxi these days. The child is already here. Now that your position as the rightful wife of the Prince of Chen's Mansion has been vacant for so long, it’s time for her to come back.”

"Your servant obeys."

Although he knew Emperor Yuan Zhao was doing this to keep Xier, he couldn't disobey the imperial decree. He could only agree for now and see how things unfolded.

"Your Majesty, should I go personally to explain the Empress Dowager's side"

"No need, I'll tell the Empress Dowager when I go later, she'll understand." Water doesn't flow to outsiders' fields, with Feng Lingxi's current status and three children with Dugu City, as long as Dugu City thinks of a way, they can still get back together.

"Then, this minister shall take his leave first."

Dugu City left the palace, Feng Lingxi didn't leave, but waited for him by the carriage. When Dugu City saw Feng Lingxi, he was unexpectedly surprised. He never dared to think that Feng Lingxi would wait for him to come out.

"You're finally here, I thought you'd be another half day."

Lu Nian stepped forward and glanced at the gate of the palace, "Let's talk in the carriage."

Dugu Cheng got on the carriage and saw Feng Ling Xi. His eyes softened.

"Xier, the Emperor just asked this King to find a way to reconcile with you."

Dugu Cheng was honest and straightforward. He told everything right away.

Feng Lingxi heard the words of getting back together, her eyes turned cold suddenly, as if she had heard a joke. "So, he asked you to come and ask me to get back together"him. He and Nian'er had agreed on this beforehand, who knew something would go wrong in the middle This wasn't his fault...""And Nian'er, don't think that by hiding away you can avoid my punishment. S...
