"Do you mind if This King sits down?"
Gu Qingli suddenly turned around. It was not that she was not vigilant, it was that all her attention was focused on the familiar carriage coming out of the city gate, so she did not notice anything else.
"Brother-in-law?"
Xiao Yi Mo, however, didn't notice the sarcasm in her words. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and smiled. He felt that she was much more beautiful than before, and the arrogant and aloof expression on her face made him feel a sense of novelty.
"Waiting for the Fifth Emperor's brother?" I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. " It was rare for him to laugh so heartily. Even the gloominess in his eyes had been wiped away.
"Do you know what he said to royal father after he entered the palace?" His evil eyes roamed her face, trying to catch a hint of fear or cowardice from her face, but he did not succeed.
Gu Qingli wasn't curious at all. Her gaze remained fixed at the entrance of the imperial city, her expression indifferent. She knew that the more this happened, the more he would have to tell her.
Xiao Yi Mo Wan sighed as her expression became serious, "I really feel sorry for you. Baba is here only to receive a grievous news — Fifth Imperial Brother entered the palace to report to Royal Father, he said that he had to marry Li Yue. He also said, "One of the seven rules is' no later ', and Hugh is not unreasonable." It seems like he's determined to take Li Li Yue as his first wife, sigh! "
"Has brother-in-law finished?" I'm leaving now. " Gu Qingli had already seen Xiao Yixiu's carriage coming out of the city gates. She stood up to leave.
"Oh, do you know why he is so determined to take Li Yue? He said that Li Yue was pregnant. Hahaha, I really can't believe that he could actually impregnate such a woman. "
Gu Qingli stopped in her tracks. At that moment, the spasm in her heart spread throughout her body, as if it couldn't stop. She took a deep breath and listened to the last part of his sentence. She said lightly, "He can only impregnate women, but you, brother-in-law, are a man. Of course you won't understand, and you don't need to understand so much."
With a sniffle, Xiao Yi Mo disappeared at the end of the stairs.
Of course, she didn't stop Xiao Yi Xiu's carriage. Instead, she took a shortcut and returned to the Residence of Mo King. She went straight back to Feng Ling Xuan and locked herself in her room.
Li Yue is pregnant, Li Yue is pregnant... These words rang in her ears, sounding louder and louder, causing her eardrums to hurt.
He said that he had not touched the false moon that night, but he told the Emperor that she was pregnant. He even wanted to cripple his main wife and invite that fake into his residence!
Gu Qingli felt that her breathing wasn't easy. Gradually, her chest felt like it was being held down, making it difficult for her to breathe.
This was good as well. It would be good if she could leave the manor like this. She would be able to escape Xiao Yi Xiu's control, and would not even need to leave the Eastern Abyss to be free.
"Esteemed wangfei, the prince has returned to his residence and is here to see you." Yu Ying's voice was very soft. Perhaps it was because Gu Qing Li had entered the house with a pale face and with a calm expression, she had closed the door heavily. She had sensed something.
Gu Qingli tried her best to catch her breath and rubbed the corner of her eyes. Very good, there wasn't even a trace of moisture. She pushed herself up and went to open the door.
"Princess Hua-Yang's complexion isn't too good?" Upon entering the room, Xiao Yixiu noticed the change in her expression and stared fixedly at her face.
"I'm fine. What is the prince doing here?"
"..." "Nothing, I just came to visit the wangfei." The moment he saw Gu Qing Li, he was struck speechless. He recalled that in the royal study, he had ruthlessly told the Emperor that there was not a single child in the seven rules that could be abandoned.
At that time, he had only wanted to contradict the emperor to see how angry he was. His expression had changed, and he hadn't really thought of crippling his wangfei.
When he saw Gu Qing Li, his previous thought had disappeared without a trace. He went up to her and wanted to shake her hand.
Gu Qing Li retreated a step ahead of him, avoiding his hand without leaving a trace. She brought out a cup of cold tea in her hand, preventing him from making any moves to get close. She lightly said, "I had thought that Prince would come back very late, but who would have thought that it would be so soon. Your Highness can rest assured that everything in the estate is fine. "
"This King wants to discuss something with you."
"Hmm?" Do we even need to discuss writing a divorce letter? Oh, that's not right, she's a wangfei. I don't know how Dong Yuan went through the process of repudiating his wife, but the wangfei probably isn't like the people.
"This King wants to..." It turned out that Na Li Yue's words were actually so hard to say. He didn't say anything for a long time.
Gu Qingli smiled. "My prince, if writing the letter of rest is troublesome, why don't we just let it go?" I wonder if Dongyuan had a precedent where princes and consorts parted ways? " When she said this, it was as if a thorn in her heart was slowly sinking deeper and deeper into her heart.
Xiao Yi Xiu was stunned for a while. "What is the wangfei saying? Why does This King not understand? "
"Miss Li Yue is already pregnant. Can I, as an imperial concubine, still occupy her place?" Gu Qingli had already forgotten about exposing Gu Qingxiao's identity. So what if it was exposed? The meal had already started. One wanted to replace her own younger sister, while the other wanted to divorce her husband. She didn't want to see either of them again.
"How did you know?" Who said anything in front of you? " Xiao Yi Xiu's expression suddenly became stern.
"Didn't Your Highness enter the palace to report to your majesty that you must welcome Li Yue into the estate? "I've already committed seventy percent of the offense, so I should naturally be eliminated …"
"Shut up!" "Xiao Yi Xiu has never spoken to her in such a harsh manner before." This king knows that there are people who wish to make a big deal out of the matter of Laiyue. Perhaps this will make Princess Wangfei unhappy with me, but I'll tell you right now, Li Yue has to enter, but Princess — Don't even think of leaving this king's side. "
Gu Qingli's delicate eyebrows knitted together, her eyes gradually becoming dark. "I just wanted to give Lady Li Yue the position of main wife. Could it be that this isn't the prince's intention?"
"This King will not discard Consort. No matter what crime you've committed, don't even think about leaving." He said each word slowly and then turned around and left.
Gu Qing Li's entire body was ice-cold. As she fell into the chair, a deep feeling of powerlessness slowly rose in her heart.
What did he want? You're still not willing to let her go?
Luo Yun sat at the front of the Immortal Drunken Wine Tower in a daze as she listened to Xiao Yi Mo talk about his arrival at the palace today.
She didn't have Gu Qing Li's self-control. The moment she heard what Xiao Yi Xiu had said, she felt as if her entire world had been destroyed. She cried until she couldn't even make a sound.
Luo Yun was originally a delicate and sweet young girl, but her crying only made him appear more teary. Her pearly white cheeks were full of tears, causing people to feel pity for him.
When Xiao Yi Mo saw this, he was slightly moved. He extended his hand to wipe her tears as he consoled her in a gentle tone.
"How can he do this to me! "Even if it's Li Yue's birth that's despicable and knows that she shamelessly pestered him, she still …" Luo Yun was heartbroken. "I've done so much for him, and he never knew when to be moved. Just where did he put me?"
Upon recalling how she had met Xiao Yi, Luo Yun felt a sense of despair. When he knew her, she had been a twelve-year-old girl, and she had seen him rejected as a doctor outside the valley. She had not uttered a single plea, just stood silently in the cold rain, letting the lightning and thunder in the inky darkness of the night fall, and the rain in his collar.
