Chapter 101 -103: Can’t Wait to Marry Him
Emperor Yongye’s eyes deepened.
“Ah Ling, don’t talk nonsense.”
Dongfang Lianhua gripped her daughter’s hand; her palm was ice-cold. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Emperor Yongye’s darkening expression and the murderous intent that was revealed as soon as the words ‘secret edict’ were mentioned.
Accompanying the Emperor was like accompanying a tiger; Ah Ling had caused a big disaster this time.
Dongfang Lianhua steeled her heart, preferring to die to protect her daughter’s life should Emperor Yongye become enraged.
Turning his back, Emperor Yongye’s face was a tumult of light and shadow.
That secret edict left by the late Emperor was related to his imperial throne, a chronic anxiety of his for many years; he had Feng Zhanlian investigate, but there had been no news.
Today, at last, there was a lead.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, Prince Wu requests an audience from outside.”
Li Qing spoke from outside.
Dugu Wu.
Why has he come again?
Inside the Imperial Study, the three of them had varying expressions.
“Let him in.”
Dugu Wu and the Old Grand Preceptor were at odds over the affairs of the Ministry of Revenue, which also troubled Emperor Yongye.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, this servant has forgotten to report: early this morning, I captured several spies from Beiqi.”
Dugu Wu returned, leaning on a cane.
“Where are they?”
Emperor Yongye’s turned around abruptly, his face an iron blue.
“Some have been executed, and a few are detained in the Capital Governor’s prison. They confessed that their mission to Great Chu was to gather military intelligence and to capture Princess Yong’an and her two children and take them back to Beiqi.”
Dugu Wu then looked towards Feng Bailing and her daughter.
“Capture?”
Emperor Yongye scoffed.
As part of Feng Zhanlian’s implication, Feng Luochen understood martial arts and was taught by Beiqi people; he had defected long ago, and Dongfang Lianhua was very likely a Beiqi spy too.
“First capture, then kill; those Beiqi spies did not hesitate to disguise themselves as people from the Fengtian gambling house to capture Feng Luochen. Feng Luochen has the bloodline of the Beiqi Grand Ancestor Emperor, possesses divine strength and is a martial arts prodigy. The Emperor of Beiqi, fearing future troubles, wanted to silence by murder, but unfortunately, Feng Luochen escaped. They laid the blame on Feng Luochen, whose body is outside.”
Dugu Wu finished speaking, and Emperor Yongye pondered for a moment.
The Beiqi Grand Ancestor Emperor was Dongfang Lianhua’s maternal grandfather, the founder of Beiqi.
He was a rare martial arts prodigy and one of the few supreme warriors who had condensed the Wuji Golden Seal.
Could it be that Dongfang Lianhua and her children have indeed inherited his bloodline?
Emperor Yongye ordered the body to be brought in.
“The coroner has already examined it; the wound was caused by a Beiqi Wolf Tooth Blade. They failed to capture Feng Luochen, so they staged the scene, attempting to frame Feng Luochen for the murder.”
With just a few words, Dugu Wu cleared Feng Luochen of the murder charge.
Divine strength, a martial arts prodigy?
Dongfang Lianhua, kneeling on the ground, was confused; her head hung low. Was that really referring to her and her sons?
What Beiqi spies? Weren’t they just some men from the gambling house?
Moreover, the body from the gambling house, when was it sent into Chu City? This man’s actions were stealthy, yet one thing was certain—he had greatly assisted her and her daughter.
Feng Luochen was safe.
Emperor Yongye glanced at the body, his eyes devoid of any mirth.
“Dugu, although your body is unwell, your senses are even sharper than mine.”
Dugu Wu spoke gravely.
“Your Majesty, please calm your anger. My senses are Your Majesty’s senses. I have also received news that the Beiqi envoy will soon arrive in Chu City.”
Emperor Yongye’s heart stirred.
The obvious purpose of the Beiqi envoy’s visit was to test Dugu Wu’s leg injury, as well as the matter concerning Dongfang Lianhua.
Although there had been no contact for many years, Dongfang Lianhua was, after all, cousins with that Emperor of Beiqi. If Dongfang Lianhua’s family were to be troubled at this time, the Emperor of Beiqi would have an excuse to question Great Chu.
Dugu Wu made a special effort to investigate the Beiqi spies, showing his concern for Feng Bailing, the prospective Princess Consort.
The Princess’ Mansion was originally a place where anyone could easily take advantage of its loneliness, but in the blink of an eye, it gained two big backers.
“Dugu, it’s time to discuss your marriage with Ah Ling. The sooner Ah Ling marries over, the sooner she’ll have someone to take care of you.”
Emperor Yongye spoke with a smile, presenting himself as an elder.
“Thank you, Emperor. Princess Consort Shun has already selected an auspicious day. I have other matters to attend to and must take my leave first.”
Dugu Wu exited.
“Lianhua, you can get up now. We are all family, and I cannot stand by and watch you being bullied.”

“Thank you, brother. Then, what about my matter with Feng Zhanlian?”
Dongfang Lianhua felt a cold sweat in her hand.
“Divorce is a matter that affects the royal family’s dignity, and you must think it over carefully. I will give you another three months to consider. During these three months, you may live separately from Feng Zhanlian. After three months, if you still wish to divorce, I will make the final decision.”
When Emperor Yongye said the words “final decision,” it carried a profound meaning as he looked towards Feng Bailing.
Feng Bailing understood that Emperor Yongye intended to exchange the secret edict for Dongfang Lianhua’s freedom.
If nothing unexpected happened, the secret edict would be in Prince Shun’s Mansion.
Could she really ask Dugu Wu for it?
When the mother and daughter stepped out of the Imperial Study, it was already noon.
“Princess Yong’an, Princess Shengping, the Empress Dowager has been informed of your entry to the palace and invites you over for a conversation.”
The nanny from Ciyuan Palace was waiting outside and hurriedly spoke as she saw the two.
“I should go and inform the Empress Dowager about my divorce, as the matter has reached her ears as well.”
Dongfang Lianhua said with a wry smile.
As the mother and daughter arrived at the entrance of Ciyuan Palace, they saw Dugu Wu coming out from inside.
He glanced indifferently at Feng Bailing as he saw her.
“Mother, I will escort Prince Wu.”
Feng Bailing took the initiative to follow Dugu Wu.
The two walked through the imperial garden, surrounded by a riot of flowers, with colorful butterflies fluttering among the blossoms.
“Thank you for today.”
Feng Bailing knew that without Dugu Wu’s appearance, Emperor Yongye would never have changed his stance, and Luochen’s accusations couldn’t have been cleared.
“Indeed, Feng Luochen carries the royal bloodline of Beiqi, and your mother has inherited a part of the Grand Ancestor Emperor’s bloodline as well. You weren’t picked up, were you?”
Dugu Wu’s heterochromic eyes swept disdainfully over Feng Bailing.
Apart from medical skills, utterly useless.
“When should we schedule our wedding date?”
Feng Bailing repeated to herself that he was a much-needed Great Replenishing Pills, and she would endure!
She needed to get her hands on that secret edict and marry into Prince Shun’s Mansion as soon as possible.
“Are you so eager?”
Dugu Wu’s eyes darkened.
Does she not realize that every woman who marries him meets an unfortunate end?
Although he didn’t plan to have any intimate actions with her, this woman had always been infatuated with him, and he couldn’t guarantee she wouldn’t develop ill intentions towards him.
“I’m considering it for the sake of your leg.”
Feng Bailing declared confidently.
While they were talking, they saw Nalan Yan’er and others, including Princess Consort Guo, walking on a cobblestone path nearby.
Nalan Yan’er looked up and saw Feng Bailing whispering something into Dugu Wu’s ear amid the flowers.
Envy filled her heart, and she whispered.
“Isn’t that Princess Feng and Prince Wu?”
A young girl beside Princess Consort Guo heard Feng Bailing’s name and jumped in fright, hastily hiding behind Princess Consort Guo.
Nalan Yan’er exclaimed.
“Mingxia, why do you look so pale?”
Feng Bailing and Dugu Wu turned to look over upon hearing the voice.
