Rebirth Of Medical Princess - C222
The news of Liu Yue’s disappearance quickly spread inside the Phantom Fire Kingdom like a huge storm. Everyone began to guess where the Imperial Consort Li was, some people said that the Imperial Consort Li was unhappy with the Emperor’s loss of the dragon race, and they secretly killed the Imperial Consort Li. Some people said that the Imperial Consort Li was obviously guilty of a crime, and must have tried to escape.
But no matter how the news spread, Xuanyuan Zhiling still maintained a calm face the entire time.
“Your Majesty, all the ministers are waiting for you. Isn’t it time for the morning assembly?” Xiao Linzi saw that Xuanyuan Zhiling was still sitting on the chair in the royal study when it was time for the assembly, so he carefully reminded Xuanyuan Zhiling.
However, Xuanyuan Zhiling was not anxious, and after hearing Xiao Linzi’s words, he said slowly: “Then let them wait a bit longer, aren’t they fond of passing on gossip? This time, let’s just let them discuss it enough, so that their hearts won’t itch. ”
Xuanyuan Zhiling’s words seemed to carry a hint of punishment.
Hearing Xuanyuan Zhiling’s words, Xiao Linzi did not dare to say anymore, and could only accompany him by his side.
Time seemed to have slowed down, after an unknown amount of time, Xuanyuan Zhiling slowly put down the brush in his hand, stood up and said: Xiao Linzi, attend to our morning assembly. When Xiao Linzi heard this, his face was immediately filled with joy. “Your majesty, you’re finally willing to go to the imperial court. The officials must be getting anxious waiting outside.”
As Xiao Linzi spoke, he began to change Xuanyuan Zhiling’s clothes and followed him to the Endless Harmony Hall.
“The emperor has finally come. The emperor has finally come.” Upon seeing the emperor, all the officials revealed joyous expressions. Some of them even let out a sigh of relief as they followed Xuanyuan Zhiling through the main entrance of the Endless Harmony Hall.
Xuanyuan Zhiling sat upright on the dragon throne, and his eyes quickly swept across the crowd of officials. All of their faces carried traces of anxiousness, and then, Qiu Shangjing still had a calm expression on them.
“How come you’re not in a hurry with your beloved official?” Xuanyuan Zhiling looked at Qiu Shangjing with interest as he asked this.
Qiu Shangjing stood out and cupped his hands, reporting, “If the emperor didn’t come, then so be it, this subject has no choice, but if the emperor wants to come, then this subject can only wait, there will be an outcome eventually, what is there to be anxious about?”
When Qiu Shangjing said this, the other ministers’ faces immediately revealed traces of shame.
“Alright, your beloved one said it well. Actually, I had already planned to come here, but knowing that all my beloved ones are already discussing what happened last night, I decided to give them some time to discuss it. I presume that most of them have already discussed it, right?”
Xuanyuan Zhiling said blandly, his eyes full of gentleness and not the slightest bit of anger. However, the other officials were still frightened by Xuanyuan Zhiling’s words and kneeled down to apologize to Xuanyuan Zhiling.
Xuanyuan Zhiling gave a light laugh, and did not say much.
“Your majesty, now that the Imperial Consort Li is missing, and the Purple Palace has been sealed by your majesty, this subject will not mention anything about the Imperial Consort Li anymore. Please rest assured your majesty.” Xuanyuan Zhiling nodded his head in satisfaction.
However, if there was someone who was tactful, there must be someone who was very stubborn.
“But Your Majesty, don’t tell me you don’t plan to look for Imperial Consort Li? Furthermore, with the disappearance of the Imperial Consort Li, the things that must be going on behind the disappearance of the Imperial Consort Li must not be so simple. ”
With these words, the atmosphere in the imperial court became extremely tense. This was because everyone knew what this person was referring to, which meant that Qin Feng was jealous, causing the death of the Imperial Consort Li or chasing the Imperial Consort Li away.
Xuanyuan Zhiling’s face suddenly changed when he heard it.
“Since you are so concerned about the matters of the Imperial Consort Li, then you should admit that the bastard in the Imperial Consort Li’s stomach is my child. Are you betraying the nation?!” Xuanyuan Zhiling said coldly, his voice was filled with killing intent like a cheetah!
When the officials heard this, they all confirmed their suspicions. Their faces immediately turned unsightly, and no one dared to say another word.
“If anyone dares to reveal any of this, they will die miserably!” Xuanyuan Zhiling stood up from the dragon throne after he finished speaking and left the court.
Ever since this incident occurred, the disappearance of the Imperial Consort Li became a matter that was avoided being discussed in the palace. Everyone was afraid that if this matter were to spread to the ears of the Emperor, they would be executed. But even so, Qin Feng still knew about this matter.
“What did you say?” Is the child in Imperial Consort Li not the emperor? ” Qin Feng had always been loyal to Qin Feng, so it was impossible for her to pretend that she didn’t hear anything when Qin Chen received the news from the servant girl’s mouth.
Qin Feng’s face froze. Had she really misunderstood Xuanyuan Zhiling? But when Qin Feng thought about it again, if Xuanyuan Zhiling and Liu Yue really didn’t have anything, then how could Xuanyuan Zhiling be so stupid as to believe it when Liu Yue told him that he was pregnant?
When she thought of this, Qin Feng’s face once again darkened. She did not decide to forgive Xuanyuan Zhiling, because this matter still indirectly proved that Xuanyuan Zhiling had truly let her down.
“empress, do you really not intend to forgive the Emperor?” Qin Chen carefully looked at Qin Feng’s face. Seeing Qin Feng’s expression, she did not dare to continue speaking.
Qin Feng turned her head around, and with a cold expression: “It’s not that I don’t want to forgive him, but it’s just that I can’t convince the depths of my heart.” After Qin Feng finished speaking, she sighed lightly, and a look of sadness quickly flashed across her face.
However, at this very moment, Liu Yue was rushing to the Black Butterfly Villa right after she left the palace. She was not going to look for the child’s father, but to ask Song Mingzhi why he wanted to tell her the truth.
Song Mingzhi seemed to have known that Liu Yue would come to find him, as he sat inside the room extremely quietly. When he heard the noise outside the window, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.
“I knew you would come, but I didn’t expect you to come so quickly.” Song Mingzhi’s words were extremely relaxed, as if he did not regret telling Xuanyuan Zhiling the truth.
Once these words were said, the window was suddenly kicked open by an external force, and a figure quickly dashed into the room. This person was none other than the Liu Yue who had just escaped from the palace.
“You knew I would come find you and you even told Xuanyuan Zhiling the truth?!” Liu Yue was furious, her hair danced in the wind, at that moment, Liu Yue’s anger had already ignited the entire room.
Song Mingzhi’s expression instantly changed slightly, but he still did not panic in the slightest.
“The reason why I told Xuanyuan Zhiling the truth is because I love him. I don’t want to let Qin Feng live his entire life in lies, and I don’t want to make him feel sad.” Song Mingzhi had a smile on his face when he said this, it seemed that he did not regret telling the truth.
Hearing this, Liu Yue laughed coldly, a tinge of ridicule could be seen within her smile.
“You love Qin Feng? Why did you fall in my bed when you loved Qin Feng? When you loved Qin Feng, you did everything you could to break the relationship between them?! ” Liu Yue’s words were filled with ridicule, and a glint quickly flashed past her eyes.
Hearing this, Song Mingzhi’s face immediately changed, he was no longer as relaxed as before.
I don’t want to ruin Qin Feng’s life anymore. I want Qin Feng’s happiness, and it’s precisely because of this that I can’t let others ruin Qin Feng’s happiness, so I will tell Xuanyuan Zhiling the truth, because the person Qin Feng loves is him! ”
Song Mingzhi said with a resolute face, his expression not the slightest bit ambiguous.
“Well, you sacrificed your child’s wealth and glory to help that woman?” Liu Yue’s face had a trace of gloominess that caused people to feel cold behind them.
Song Mingzhi did not speak, and it was considered to be a tacit agreement to Liu Yue’s words.
“I broke our promise, and now I’m regretting it. I’ll do anything you want.” Song Mingzhi said indifferently after being silent for a long while. He seemed to have already been waiting for Liu Yue here, as if he was looking forward to her death.
Seeing Song Mingzhi, who was wholeheartedly in love with Qin Feng, Liu Yue became even angrier.
“Fine, since you are willing to die for Qin Feng, I will grant your wish!” Liu Yue’s eyes quickly flashed with a trace of viciousness, and stared straight at Song Mingzhi.
Liu Yue took out his sword, under the pale white moonlight, the sword released a gloomy light.
“If killing me is enough to release you, then just do it. In short, I’ve already done such a thing, even if I’m regretting it now, it’s too late.” Song Mingzhi said in a bland voice. He did not fear death at all, as when he was young, he had long wanted to die.
When Song Mingzhi said this, he clearly noticed the trace of hesitation that flashed across Liu Yue’s eyes.
“Then do you regret it now? If you really regret it, I can spare your life. After all, you are my child’s father. ” When Liu Yue said this, she really hoped that Song Mingzhi would tell her that he regretted it, but the reality was completely different.
Song Mingzhi resolutely shook his head: “I have never regretted it. As long as Qin Feng is happy, I will not regret anything!” He was so resolute, so resolute that even Liu Yue’s heart ached with him, but he was still so resolute.
Liu Yue let out a cold laugh, and a trace of disappointment quickly flashed across her face.
“Alright, you chose this yourself. You can’t blame me for this. Actually, I don’t want to kill you either!” As Liu Yue said that, she waved the treasure sword, causing Song Mingzhi to gently close his eyes, he was already prepared to die, but he felt a pain in his chest, but it was only for a moment, he anxiously opened his eyes to look, the sword had only pierced him, but it did not go deep.
Song Mingzhi looked up at Liu Yue, surprise quickly flashing past her eyes.
“You, didn’t you want to kill me?” Song Mingzhi stared intently at Qin Feng, a complicated expression on his face.
Liu Yue let out a light sigh, powerlessly let go of her hands, and coldly looked at Song Mingzhi: “Yes, I really want to kill you with one sword strike, but I just want to think of a child, don’t tell me that I really want to personally kill the child’s biological father?” When Liu Yue said till here, her expression flashed a trace of disappointment.
Song Mingzhi’s face had a very complex expression, there was happiness but also guilt.
“Sorry, it was me who broke our promise. Right now, our children no longer have honor and wealth. However, they did not belong to him in the first place.” Ever since Song Mingzhi had interacted with him for a while, he completely understood what was meant by love, just like how Qin Feng loved Xuanyuan Zhiling.
Liu Yue heard and laughed, her smile mixed with a bit of sorrow.
“You’ve thought for her. You’ve fulfilled the person you love. But have you thought about me? In this game, the most injured person is me! ” Liu Yue’s words sounded dispirited, but this was the first time she felt that she had failed so badly.
Hearing that, Song Mingzhi laughed faintly, the smile mixed with a bit of sadness.
“You’re not the most injured one, but Qin Feng is, because she could have lost her life for Xuanyuan Zhiling, but you would never have done that.” Song Mingzhi looked at Liu Yue with a resolution that had never been there before.
“In your eyes, I, Liu Yue, am an ungrateful person. Since you think so, from now on, we will break off all ties.”
