Chapter 150: Han Yan Comes Out of Confinement

Xuanyuan Hongtai didn't expect that Nangong Jing was much calmer than he imagined. The imperial decree granting the marriage had been issued and there was a lot of noise in the palace about the betrothal, but Nangong Jing stayed quietly in the mansion without making any movement.

This made Xuanyuan Hongtai, who wanted to find something to hold against Nangong Jing so that Xuanyuan Xingyao could completely compromise, or take the opportunity to drive Nangong Jing out of the imperial capital, very helpless.

"Your Highness the Seventh Prince still refuses to agree to propose marriage?"

Xuanyuan Hongtai asked his personal steward.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The personal steward answered honestly.

Thinking of the stubborn Xuanyuan Xingyao, Xuanyuan Hongtai also had a headache.

They have been locked up for nearly a month, but Xuanyuan Xingyao still refuses to agree to break up with Nangong Jing.

At first, Xuanyuan Xingyao's attitude softened, and Xuanyuan Hongtai thought he knew he was wrong. However, he didn't expect that when Xuanyuan Hongtai set the date for the wedding and asked Xuanyuan Xingyao to come forward to propose marriage, he was met with a fierce rebuttal from Xuanyuan Xingyao.

Xuanyuan Xingyao even threatened to commit suicide, saying that if he really had to propose marriage, he would rather commit suicide, which made Xuanyuan Hongtai very angry.

Xuanyuan Hongtai was angry, but he couldn't really joke about Xuanyuan Xingyao's life.

Xuanyuan Hongtai was very troubled about what to do with Xuanyuan Xingyao. Recently, even Ning You had become a little soft-hearted and begged him for mercy every day.

Xuanyuan Hongtai wanted to be angry, but when he looked at Ning You's slightly haggard face and red and swollen eyes, and thought of Ning You's virtuous behavior over the years, Xuanyuan Hongtai could no longer get angry.

"Your Majesty, Master Bing is outside the Imperial Study, requesting an audience with Your Majesty."

A eunuch suddenly ran in hurriedly and spoke before Xuanyuan Hongtai got angry.

When Xuanyuan Hongtai heard that Bing Linxuan was coming, his expression immediately changed slightly and he stood up and said.

"Please invite Master Bing in."

When Xuanyuan Hongtai heard that Bing Linxuan was coming, his first reaction was to ask Bing Linxuan to persuade Xuanyuan Xingyao. Xuanyuan Hongtai believed that with Bing Linxuan's persuasion, Xuanyuan Xingyao would definitely listen to him.

As for whether Bing Linxuan would stand on Xuanyuan Xingyao's side, Xuanyuan Hongtai believed that Bing Linxuan would definitely be like him and hope that Xuanyuan Xingyao would take the smoothest path.

"emperor."

After Bing Linxuan entered the imperial study, he nodded slightly to Xuanyuan Hongtai.

Xuanyuan Hongtai is the Dragon Shadow Emperor after all, and Bing Linxuan has to give him some face even though he is a War Saint. Otherwise, Bing Linxuan would not have asked someone to inform him, but would have rushed in directly.

"When did Master Bing come back?"

Xuanyuan Hongtai has had a good relationship with Bing Linxuan over the years because of Xuanyuan Xingyao, and they can exchange a few words when they meet.

"I just got back today, and as soon as I got back, I heard that Yao'er was getting married, so I rushed to the palace to see what was going on. Yao'er clearly said before that she liked men, and that if she found someone she liked in the future, she would bring him back to me to see. How could he suddenly want to marry a woman?"

Bing Linxuan said this on purpose, so that Xuanyuan Hongtai would mistakenly believe that Xuanyuan Xingyao had liked men from the beginning.

In this way, Xuanyuan Hongtai would not vent his anger on Nangong Jing. After all, even without Nangong Jing, there are other men, right?

Moreover, Bing Linxuan's words also implied that he supported Xuanyuan Xingyao.

Xuanyuan Hongtai naturally understood the meaning of Bing Linxuan's words, but it was precisely because he understood it that he felt particularly aggrieved.

I originally thought that he was a helper on my side, but I didn't expect that he was Xuanyuan Xingyao's backer.

However, if what Bing Linxuan said was true, then it seemed that Nangong Jing was really innocent, and it would be a bit inhumane for him to vent his anger on him.

"Although same-sex relationships are considered normal on the Dragon Shadow Continent, they are not mainstream. If Yao'er were to really be with a man, how many rumors would there be in the outside world? Master, do you know?"

Xuanyuan Hongtai said without giving up.

"Your Majesty has forgotten one thing, that is, the strong are respected. As long as Yao'er is strong, who would dare to say anything behind his back? Even if things don't work out, don't we still have you, Your Majesty, and this old immortal like me?"

Bing Linxuan said with a smile.

"I hope Yao'er can have his own children and enjoy the happiness of family."

Xuanyuan Hongtai continued.

"Marrying someone you don't love, being forced to bear children, and never feeling happy for the rest of your life, would you be willing to experience such a joyful family life, Your Majesty?"

Bing Linxuan asked directly.

Xuanyuan Hongtai fell silent after hearing this. He put himself in Xuanyuan Xingyao's shoes and thought about it. If he were Xuanyuan Xingyao, he would be forced to marry someone he didn't like and also forced to have a child.

Forget about being happy, it’s good enough that you don’t hate the wife you married and the children you gave birth to.

Is it really his fault???

"I just want him to live a normal life. Is that wrong?"

Xuanyuan Hongtai said stubbornly.

"Your Majesty's fatherly heart is not wrong, but has Your Majesty ever asked Yao'er what kind of life he wants?"

Bing Linxuan said earnestly.

Xuanyuan Hongtai was completely silent. Why didn't Xuanyuan Xingyao say that he would rather give up the identity of a royal family member and the title of a prince, and be with Nangong Jing.

Bing Linxuan saw Xuanyuan Hongtai's dilemma and did not continue to force him.

Xuanyuan Hongtai is an emperor after all, and he cares a lot about his reputation. Pushing him too far will only backfire.

Although Bing Linxuan is Xuanyuan Xingyao's master and is qualified to decide Xuanyuan Xingyao's marriage, Xuanyuan Hongtai is Xuanyuan Xingyao's biological father, so he is naturally more qualified than Bing Linxuan.

The most important thing is that Bing Linxuan doesn't want Xuanyuan Hongtai and Xuanyuan Xingyao to become completely enemies. Like Xuanyuan Hongtai, Bing Linxuan also hopes that Xuanyuan Xingyao can have the happiest life.

Whether it is martial arts, family, or the one you love.

Bing Linxuan turned around and silently left the imperial study, and went to Zhaochun Palace to see Xuanyuan Xingyao.

When Bing Linxuan saw Xuanyuan Xingyao, he almost didn't recognize him. His resentment towards the emperor was so deep that it couldn't be described.

"Yao'er, why are you so thin? And how did your cultivation level increase so much?"

When Bing Linxuan saw Xuanyuan Xingyao, he was first surprised by his haggard appearance, and then shocked by his cultivation as a War King.

Xuanyuan Xingyao has good aptitude, but no matter how good his aptitude is, it is impossible for him to improve his cultivation from War Sect to War King, and at that, to the middle stage of War King, in just over a year.

Xuanyuan Xingyao's cultivation level is now slightly higher than Wu Wei's, which is obviously abnormal.

"Master, you are finally back."

When Xuanyuan Xingyao saw Bing Linxuan, a rare look of joy appeared on his face, and his frown finally relaxed.

"It's because the master came back late that you suffered."

Xuanyuan Xingyao's overjoyed expression made Bing Linxuan temporarily stop asking him about his cultivation level and only feel distressed.

Xuanyuan Xingyao shook his head. Now that Bing Linxuan was back, he no longer had to worry about being forced by Xuanyuan Hongtai to get married.

Xuanyuan Xingyao can ignore himself, but he cannot ignore Xuanyuan Leng and Ning You.

Although Xuanyuan Leng didn't say anything, Xuanyuan Xingyao still learned from the palace people that Xuanyuan Leng had been scolded several times by Xuanyuan Hongtai because of his affairs during this period.

In the court, Xuanyuan Xi and Xuanyuan Qing kept causing trouble for Xuanyuan Leng, but Xuanyuan Leng never once said these things in front of Xuanyuan Xingyao. Xuanyuan Xingyao felt extremely painful during this period.

"Master, I'm glad you're back."

Xuanyuan Xingyao never said that he was not suffering, that was all hypocrisy.

"Don't worry, I have a master here. He will definitely make you happy."

For Bing Linxuan, it doesn’t matter who Xuanyuan Xingyao’s partner is, whether he is a man or a woman, as long as Xuanyuan Xingyao likes him and the other person is a good person.

"Master, have you visited Xiao Jing? How is he?"

Xuanyuan Xingyao hasn't seen Nangong Jing for nearly a month. Even though Xuanyuan Leng has always said that Nangong Jing is a good person, Xuanyuan Xingyao still feels a little worried.

"That kid looks just like you, and he's lost a lot of weight. If Han Yan comes out of confinement, I'll be heartbroken."

Bing Linxuan blamed Xuanyuan Hongtai in his heart. Does it matter whether it is a boy or a girl? He has messed up such a good couple of young people.

When Xuanyuan Xingyao heard that Nangong Jing had lost a lot of weight, he pursed his lips slightly and felt extremely distressed.

Bing Linxuan was very curious about Xuanyuan Xingyao's sudden increase in cultivation. Of course, he was more worried about Xuanyuan Xingyao and whether he had used some method to quickly improve his cultivation.

Although Bing Linxuan believed that Xuanyuan Xingyao was not the kind of person who would joke about his future, what if he encountered a crisis and had to use it?

Bing Linxuan was about to ask when he suddenly felt a powerful force spreading throughout the entire palace. Although the force quickly disappeared, Bing Linxuan still felt that someone had broken through to the god-level cultivation level.

"This aura means Han Yan has made a breakthrough. Let's go to the worship hall quickly."

The sudden attack of Wei Ya just now even suppressed Bing Linxuan, not to mention Xuanyuan Xingyao, who almost vomited blood.

In other words, the other party quickly retracted the wire, otherwise Xuanyuan Xingyao would have fallen.

Although it was only for a moment, Bing Linxuan still felt a familiar breath from the wire, it was Han Yan's breath.

Han Yan successfully broke through to become a God Summoner, which was great news for Xuanyuan Xingyao.

Because Bing Linxuan was accompanying him, the guards did not dare to stop Xuanyuan Xingyao from leaving Zhaochun Palace.

However, after Xuanyuan Xingyao left Zhaochun Palace, he immediately went to the imperial study to report to Xuanyuan Hongtai.

At this time, Xuanyuan Hongtai was also wondering what was going on with that huge wire.

When Xuanyuan Hongtai heard the guard's report that Bing Linxuan took Xuanyuan Xingyao to the worship hall with a happy face, he realized that Han Yan must have successfully broken through.

Han Yan's breakthrough to summoning gods was naturally a good thing for the Dragon Shadow Empire, but Han Yan's breakthrough also meant that Nangong Jing's backers became even more powerful.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Hongtai didn't know whether he should be happy or worried.

"Yao'er, go to the Duke's Mansion and tell Xiao Jing that Han Yan will definitely want to meet his beloved disciple after he comes out of seclusion."

When Bing Linxuan was about to reach the Imperial Garden, he suddenly thought of something and said to Xuanyuan Xingyao behind him.

Xuanyuan Xingyao was stunned for a moment, then responded with surprise.

"Yes, Master."

Xuanyuan Xingyao responded and without waiting for Bing Linxuan to speak, he turned around and ran out of the palace.

Bing Linxuan looked at Xuanyuan Xingyao's anxious expression and cursed softly.

"You really don't need a master anymore if you have a lover."

Bing Linxuan cursed but he was not really angry. He even deliberately asked Xuanyuan Xingyao to find Nangong Jing. Otherwise, with so many people in the palace, couldn't he just find someone to inform Nangong Jing? Why did he have to let Xuanyuan Xingyao go?
