Chapter 1531: Glazed Purple Star 70

elong to the imperial concubine. Although everyone in the palace says that Concubine Yun committed suicide by hanging herself, before seeing Concubine Yun's body, no one can say for sure if she truly..."Hurry up."

Someone in the crowd cried out, and the people scattered like they had seen a plague.

This is what it means to be human.

Feng Yixuan walked up to Feng Lingxi's face, "Who would dare ask you A slight slip of the tongue could bring disaster. Who would dare"

Feng Lingxi's lips twitched slightly, "Didn't they fear causing trouble when they talked about me just now" What kind of logic is this Besides, she really wanted to hear what they had to say about her. Maybe she could find some answers she was looking for here.

"Come in."

Feng Yixuan watched the departing people, shaking his head helplessly. This is what it's like under the emperor's rule.

The news of Feng Lingxi's return to the manor spread quickly, and Huangpu Qingyun, who had been waiting for a long time, brightened up upon hearing it. This time, the betrothed was her. Huangpu Qingyun was full of energy, and a smile never left his handsome face.

Of course, there are those who rejoice and those who mourn. Du Gucheng also appeared at Lu Fu, but Feng Lingxi didn't know about it.

Feng Lingxi entered and immediately saw this scene: a room full of men drinking tea, seemingly enjoying themselves, but each with their own thoughts.

"Xiao Feng, you're back."

Tao Su saw Feng Ling and walked over to him, greeting him politely. Looking at Dugu Cheng and Huang Fu Qingyun beside him, he said, "They've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Where are Siyu and Qiqi"

Feng Lingxi ignored Dugu Cheng and Huangfu Qingyun. To be honest, she was furious right now. She now understood why the common people were gathered around Lu's mansion. This mansion housed the current King Chen and the crown prince of the neighboring country of Arah Xia who had come for a visit. She was caught in the middle, and now they were being targeted like meat on a chopping board. The feeling was unimaginable.

Tao Su pointed to the backyard. "In the backyard, Wan'er is playing with them, and your younger siblings too."

Feng Yixuan glanced at the few men who were about to speak but held back, and said, "Sister Xi'er, I'll go take a look at the children first."

"I'll go too." Feng Lingxi spoke up. Huangfu Qingyun couldn't sit still and hurriedly got up, pulling her forward. "Xier, didn't you say you wanted to chat with me properly when I returned"

Feng Lingxi glanced at the hand clutching her arm, her eyes slightly cold.

"Prince Huangfu, you can still chat with them. I have something to attend to and won't keep you company."

Seeing this, Dugu Cheng's smile widened. He said, "How could Xi'er possibly like Huangfu Qingyun She never even had a chance with him before, how could she possibly be his match now If it weren't for the empress dowager's side, he wouldn't have personally come to Lu Mansion to keep an eye on things."

Feng Lingxi didn't miss Dugu Cheng's smirk, and coldly reminded him, "Although I agreed to treat your illness, but please, Prince Chen, be mindful of your status. Don't run around aimlessly, or it will damage your reputation if it gets out."

Dugu City's smile froze instantly, looking at Feng Lingxi's indifferent attitude, he hurriedly explained, "Xier, it's not like that, Your Majesty can explain, I..."

"Lu Nian, I'll leave this to you."

Feng Lingxi left a single sentence and went to the backyard with Wei Yixuan, not forgetting to bring Tao Su along. Tao Su followed her to Dayuan Dynasty. As it was a gathering of friends, she didn't want to involve him, lest rumors spread and people attack him, saying ill things about him.

"It seems Xi'er still has Prince Huangfu in her heart. Even after five years, she doesn't want to marry you." Dugu City took a sip of tea, his expression calm and his eyes determined. Xi'er was his.

"What do you mean, King Chen I gave Xi'er to you. Don't forget, I had a betrothal with her too. If you hadn't been so quick, and Xi'er hadn't liked you, there's no way I would have let her go willingly. Now that you've failed Xi'er, she will be under my protection. You don't need to worry about her anymore."

Huángfǔ Qīngyún's words angered Dúlǔ Chéng, but he held back.

"Your Majesty owes her nothing. I will explain the matter to Xi'er myself when the five years are up, there is no need for you to intervene."

Huangfu Qingyun raised an eyebrow. He didn't need anyone to intervene; he was here to celebrate with his family. His marriage to Xi'er was already a done deal, something even Prince Chen couldn't stop.

"It seems it's not your turn to speak on this matter, Chen Wang The betrothal has already been decided. Do you think the Empress Dowager would listen to you and cancel the betrothal"

Huangfu Qingyun said this with a smug look, watching Dugu City's anger unconcealed, his eyes filled with pride.

"This is my own affair, Royal Highness Prince Huofengyun. This King has said it before, I haven't wronged her. Xi'er wouldn't agree to marry into the royal family, and this King wouldn't allow it either. Xi'er wouldn't agree."

"How could King Chen know that Xi'er wouldn't agree Doesn't he still think Xi'er would refuse me for you"

Huangfu Qingyun was very sure that this time, Xi'er would definitely agree. Was the position of empress in this scorching summer dynasty not better than what she had here

"This king is certain."

"Alright, stop arguing. Didn't you see how Xi'er acted just now She clearly didn't want to pay attention to you. Just go back. As for how Xi'er chooses, that's her business." Lu Nian was fed up with their bickering. His sister was upset earlier, and he still needed to figure out how to coax her later so she wouldn't be angry and take it out on him.

"Lü Niàn, take good care of Xī'er for me. I shall return first."

Huangfu Qingyun watched Dugu City leave, but he wanted to stay. However, Lu Nian had already issued a warning, and besides, he was Xi'er's older brother. He couldn't linger, lest he leave a bad impression on his future brother-in-law.

"Well, then I'll head back first. Lu Gege, please tell Xi'er that I'll come visit her again tomorrow and ask her to take good care of herself and rest well."

Having said that, Huangfu Qingyun took his entourage out, got into the carriage, and looked at Dugu Cheng standing there. In a low voice, he said, "Your Highness, this palace still advises you not to compete with this palace. The Empress Dowager's meaning has been made very clear. You and Xi’er will not be able to mend the broken mirror."

Du Gucheng didn't want to pay him any mind. Currently, Huangfu Qingyun was relying on his connections with the royal family to speak up. He had just returned, and this matter was already settled. He truly didn't know about it. However, no matter how difficult it was, he wouldn't allow this matter to become a reality. Xi'er could marry anyone, but she absolutely couldn't go to Huangxia Dynasty as the empress. This would make it impossible for her to face the world in the future.

“Huangfu Qingyun, if you truly care for Xi’er, you shouldn't have agreed to this political marriage. You should know that Xi’er went missing five years ago, and this time she could disappear again. She didn't come back for the purpose of marrying you. If you push her too far, you will regret it even more than I did. Unless you don't love her at all.”

Dugu Cheng's voice was slightly cold. He knew Xi'er's temper well. Huangfu Qingyun's actions today had already made her very angry. He originally planned to explain things clearly to her during her return to the capital, but now it seemed difficult to do so.

Let me make one thing clear to you. The divorce decree from back then wasn't written by me. It was Feng Lingxi who brought it up. When the late emperor gave us his blessings, he explicitly stated that I had no right to divorce her. Feng Lingxi will always be my queen for life.have also been considering this matter. I will return later to discuss it with the chieftain and see how we can avoid the prying eyes of the world and safely transport such a large treasure trove to t...
