Chapter 198 - 198: Regret That I Can’t Give Birth to a Daughter (3)



The man sitting high above was not surprised. “Then…”

“Then, Linyuan has nothing else to ask for.” Mo Linyuan smiled and bowed.

Emperor Wu Xuan frowned and his expression was a little ugly. However, the reason why Daqing did not openly make use of the marriage alliance was to leave a way out for both sides.

The deeper meaning was that if he was unwilling, he could not force him.

Seeing this, Mo Xin took a step forward and said with a smile, “Your Majesty, Xin’er does have someone she likes. I wonder if Your Majesty can fulfill it?”

Emperor Wu Xuan’s expression softened slightly. “Who is it?”

She was a little hesitant. Under everyone’s gaze, she said the name.

“Xie Xingyun.”

Mo Xin’s cheeks were red. After saying that, she kept her head lowered.

Emperor Wu Xuan laughed loudly. “Yun’er is not engaged yet. 1 can talk to him about this for you.”

Mo Xin was overjoyed. “Thank you, Your Majesty!”

After Gu Yu entered the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor, he had been hanging his head low, looking dispirited. It was not until the young man in black flipped another page of a book that he said, “Do you know that Bai Xianyu was summoned to the palace?”

Xie Xingyun held the book in one hand and placed his other hand on the table.

“Emm.”

“Then do you know what the Empress Dowager said to her?”

Xie Xingyun raised his eyebrows. “Do you know?”

Gu Yu was melancholic. “I was present. How would 1 not know?”

“Did she talk about a marriage alliance?” Xie Xingyun pinched the space between his eyebrows and lay on the couch, covering his face with a book.

Gu Yu looked at upturned eyebrows and suddenly asked another question. “That’s right. Why aren’t you worried about Bai Xianyu at all? What if she’s forced into a marriage alliance?”

Xie Xingyun’s lips curled up. “Then you won’t be able to see me now.”

Gu Yu did not understand what he meant. After thinking for a while, he could not figure it out, so he decided not to think about it. “Then do you know how Bai Xianyu turned her down?”

“How?”

“She said that she couldn’t bear children!” Gu Yu frowned and said, “Because it was Emperor Wu Xuan who sent people to watch me. The black magic worms and everything else were also under their noses. At first, I was worried that she was lying, but when I tested it, guess what happened!”

Xie Xingyun slowly closed his eyes, as if he was resting.

“The black magic worm did not change color! That means that Bai Xianyu really can’t bear children,” Gu Yu said strangely. “This is the first time I’ve seen the color not change the slightest bit. This means that there’s no hope of healing at all. Sigh…”

He said a lot, but the man did not say anything. Hence, he pushed Xie Xingyun. “Can you give me some reaction?”

Xie Xingyun opened his eyes and sat up again. “Yes.”

GuYu,”…”

“Why do you sound like I’m the one who likes her? I’m talking about Bai Xianyu. If she can’t bear you a little marquis and a little daughter for you in the future, what will you do?”

Xie Xingyun straightened one of his legs and thought for two seconds before curling his lips slightly.

“Pretty happy.”

GuYu,”…”

“That way, fewer people will have designs on her.”

GuYu,”…”

Xie Xingyun thought of the little daughter that Gu Yu had mentioned just now.

If she looked the same as Little Yu, she would definitely be very lovable.

However, he would already be satisfied if Little Yu was willing to marry him. Although it was a pity that she could not bear him a daughter, it would save Little Yu the trouble of worrying.

Gu Yu had come to comfort Xie Xingyun, but he did not expect him to not care at all.

He did not know whether to laugh or cry. When he saw Xie Xingyun starting to read again, he looked over curiously. “What are you reading?”

‘Is it a military book or some ancient book? Is there a need to hold it so tightly?’

Xie Xingyun did not block him. His eyes were slightly raised and he was focused on reading.

Gu Yu looked at the content and was speechless.

“Recipes?”

The man said “emm” nonchalantly and turned the page.

Gu Yu,”… Are you reading this to cook for Miss Bai?”

Xie Xingyun stared at the words and frowned. “Yes.”

Gu Yu,”…”

“Young Master, His Majesty has ordered you to go into the palace!” Xiao Zheng stood outside the door with an eunuch holding a horsetail whisk beside him.

Xie Xingyun looked unhappy at being disturbed. “Got it.”

An hour later.

On the palace wall, there were golden glazed tiles everywhere, and the red wall was high.

Emperor Wu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back. “Did you find anyone suspicious about what happened last time?”

Xie Xingyun leaned against the white jade and half-opened his eyes. His thoughts were unfathomable.

There was a long silence.

He said, “None.”

Emperor Wu Xuan was not surprised by this outcome. The Court of Judicial Review and the imperial army searched the surroundings of the Great Xiangguo Temple, but they only caught one assassin.

There was no evidence left behind at all.

After another moment of silence, Emperor Wu Xuan suddenly smiled. “Then let’s not talk about this matter. Let’s talk about family matters. Yun’er, you’re already at the age where you should get married and have children. I think Princess Chong An of Daqing is not bad. She’s gentle and understanding.. What do you think of her?”
