Feng Lingxi looked down at the lake below and swallowed nervously, "Will I die if I jump in""The lake is not very deep. Jumping in is just like taking a bath. Besides, with me here, nothing will happe...Huangpu Qingyun heard what Dugu City said and just wanted to laugh.

"This is really interesting. You've given her the decree once already, and now you're bringing up the Imperial marriage Dugu City, when did you become someone who only relies on your father"

At first, he quit for Xi'er, but what about Dugu City

He promised to treat Xier well and take care of her, but he didn't do it. He only cared about himself and never considered Xier. Now that he has the chance, and has fought for the opportunity to be with Xier, this time, he absolutely won't back down.

"Whatever you say, I've said what I had to say. As for what you think, that's your business."

Dugu Cheng didn't want to argue with Huangfu Qingyun anymore. Huangfu Qingyun had his own thoughts, and so did he. He knew the purpose of Xi'er's return this time, she would definitely not agree to the marriage, let alone her current identity, which was nowhere near the kind of person they wanted her to marry.

Don't say he doesn't have the qualifications to let her go and reunite with her family. Even the Emperor and Empress Dowager don't have that right.

Huángfǔ Qīngyún narrowed his eyes, watching Dúlú Chéng's retreating figure. A cold glint appeared in his eyes. He was like this, and he still wanted to cling to Xī'er Was it just because Xī'er gave him a pair of dragon and phoenix twins Did he still want to use the children to coerce Xī'er

He would never let Xi'er stay by Dugu Cheng's side because of the child, letting her suffer grievances.

When Feng Lingxi arrived at the backyard, she saw the children playing with Tian Xiaomi. All her worries vanished instantly.

"Sister Xier, you should stay for a while this time, so the children can get together properly. After we're apart, who knows when we'll meet again." Feng Yixuan looked at Feng Lingxi's faint smile on her face. She wasn't in a good mood today. Seeing that both Huangfu Qingyun and Dugu City were back, this family matter must be bothering her.

"I'd love to stay longer, but I'm afraid I might have to leave sooner than expected." Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yixuan. "You saw it just now, both Dugu City and Huangfu Qingyun came. The people at the gate are all gathered around the Lu Mansion. You should have some idea why they're here."

"Xiao Feng, don't mind what they say. Once things are done, we'll leave." Tao Su spoke up to advise, today after Dugou City and Huangfu Qingyun arrived, they had been arguing non-stop. He already knew about the marriage matter, but he didn't know how to tell Xiao Feng.

Dugu Cheng said he didn't agree to the marriage and also didn't know about it until just now. However, Huangpu Qingyun claimed that he was sent here to arrange the marriage and would definitely take Xiaofeng back as his princess.

Tao Su knew that if Xiaofeng ran for office, she definitely wouldn't agree. But he was just an outsider and couldn't speak up.

Feng Lingxi responded, and she also knew that her return this time had caused trouble. This matter concerning her family, she didn't know how it ended up on her head. She wasn't a princess or county princess of the Dayuan Dynasty, and she even had three children. She couldn't understand why they would choose her for this arranged marriage. This Aohua Dynasty was ridiculous—they could have chosen anyone else but agreed to marry her, a woman who had given birth and been divorced.

"Sister Xi'er, Prince Huangfu is also deeply in love with you. If you truly like him and want to be with him, Yi Xuan also approves. Just because he has never married from the time he met Sister Xi'er until now and has been deeply in love with you, I approve of him being with you."

"What did you say Huangfu Qingyun has never been married"

Feng Lingxi was truly astonished upon hearing this. Seeing Feng Yixuan nod, she couldn't believe it.

Didn't he say he was going to get married back then How come...

"No, it's precisely because he has been waiting for you all these years. That's why the Empress and Emperor of the Aohan Dynasty agreed to this marriage alliance. Because it's with you, so when the Dowager Empress proposed it, Aohan Dynasty immediately agreed."

Tao Su's words shocked Feng Ling Xi. Tao Su added, "It was said by Crown Prince Huafu and Brother Lu. Prince Chen was also there at the time."

Feng Lingxi frowned. Why did Huangfu Qingyun not get married Even if he didn't, she wouldn't marry him because of it. Moreover, his actions made his parents even more disgusted with her. In the first place, it was because of her that Huangfu Qingyun hesitated to get married. She hadn't expected that after five years, he was still waiting for her.

"Xiaofeng, if you truly like him…"

“I have no romantic feelings for Huangfu Qingyun, and I will not be with him.”

Feng Lingxi's attitude was firm. Looking at Tao Su's puzzled eyes, she slowly said, "He deserves better, but that person will definitely not be me."

"Xiaofeng, you're doing great. Don't mind what others say, just do what you want to do."

Feng Lingxi smiled, “I know I’m doing well, so I don’t need to make myself despised. Ao Xia Chao has been kind to me, and all I can do is this.” Perhaps, for Huangpu Qingyun, marrying her was his greatest desire, but she knew that even if she agreed, she couldn't give him the happiness he wanted. Once they were married, Huangpu Qingyun would regret it, and his life would be tarnished. She didn’t need to harm him.

"I've never liked girls, and I don't know what you're thinking, but I support you no matter what."

Tao Su looked at Feng YiXuan, "As long as Xiao Feng feels it's right."

"Xier Jie, you decide."

Feng Lingxi nodded, unwilling to say more about these troublesome matters.

"Let's stay here today. My siblings and I haven't been together in ages, let Xiao Mi keep me company for a while."

"Okay."

Feng Yi Xuan had no objections; he was delighted to stay. He would make them uncomfortable at the General's Mansion anyway, and he could catch up with Sister Xi Er here. He couldn't have asked for anything more.

"As soon as I arrived, I heard you talking about me. It seems like the only way to appease your younger brother Yi Xuan is to treat him well, otherwise he might hold a grudge against his older brother like me," Lu Nian sighed, putting on an innocent and wronged expression. This was met with Feng Ling Xi's one-eyed glare.

"You're here just in time. You owe me an explanation about what happened today. Dugu City and Huangfu Qingyun stayed at my house for a whole day. Do you know how many commoners are crowding outside, watching"

Lu Nian wore an innocent expression.

“Listen, little sister, you know these two men. One is your ex-husband, the former Crown Prince of the Yuan Dynasty, and the father of your child. The other is your betrothed who also treated you kindly, your ‘imperial brother.’ You tell me, how can I, your unrecognized older brother, possibly be their match Besides, they've been bickering since they met; I haven't even been able to get a word in edgewise. How am I supposed to handle this”

When Lu Nian said that, Feng Lingxi felt even more headache.

"Then do you know about the Great Yuan Dynasty allowing me to marry Huangpu Qingyun"

"I just heard, but I disagree. This has nothing to do with you! You're the eldest daughter of our Lu family, the princess of Xi Gu country. Even if it were a marriage alliance, it wouldn't be up to the Yuan Dynasty to choose your husband, would it"

"When did I become the princess of Xi Gu Country"endant was left to me by my father, while the other pendant was given to his other child."Bai Xiaoduo looked at Bai Mo and saw that his face was pale, so she motioned for him to sit down."I went to Ti...
