No matter what, she and Feng Chenlan had been husband and wife for so many years, even if they were only superficially compatible. But she never expected that Feng Chenlan would be so heartless.
She was cut off from all contact with the outside world, and she couldn't do anything.
They are like fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.
——
In the extremely luxurious hall, Feng Chenlan paced back and forth.
His handsome face was filled with joy; it was Ah Li's child!
Ah Li's child is his child.
"Brother, aren't you getting a little too excited?" Feng Jinzhi couldn't help but ask.
"Cough cough cough, why would I be excited? That's A-Li and that bastard Jun Jing's child, why would I be excited!"
"Oh... After all these years, my brother is still jealous of Junjing."
"Jealous? Why would I be jealous of a dead person?"
"Even in death, Junjing and Ali should be buried together..."
"Feng Jinzhi, shut your mouth! Don't say another word!"
Feng Chenlan's face darkened. "I don't care about these things. So many years have passed. I won't argue with a dead person! In any case, this girl is A-Li's child, so she is my child! But I won't be too fond of her."
Feng Chenlan said in a serious tone, "But, I will give her everything she deserves!"
"Oh~~" Feng Jinzhi dragged out the last syllable, looking at his elder brother with a teasing expression. He was clearly nervous, but he still stubbornly refused to admit it.
"Wouldn't she be intimidated by my imperial might when she first meets me? Should I change into casual clothes to appear more approachable?"
Meeting Feng Jinzhi's teasing gaze, Feng Chenlan coughed twice: "Don't overthink it."
“Brother, I didn’t say anything.” Feng Jinzhi shrugged and said innocently, “However, you don’t need to worry about scaring that girl. That little girl is very bold.”
The image of that arrogant girl flashed through his mind, and Feng Jinzhi's lips twitched slightly. "Brother, you should worry about yourself."
That girl would be scared? He wouldn't believe it even if you beat him to death!
Even if the sky were to fall, that girl might not be scared.
Arrogant and conceited! Just like Ah Li back then, no, even more arrogant and conceited than Ah Li back then.
However, that girl certainly had the right to be arrogant. After all, who could cultivate to the Spirit Venerable Realm at the age of seventeen?
If he had achieved this at seventeen... he would only be more arrogant! Thinking about it this way, Feng Jinzhi felt that this little girl was being a bit too modest.
Led by the guards, Liuyue entered the main hall.
"Cough cough cough."
Feng Chenlan cleared his throat, wanting to step forward, but he was afraid that his appearance would frighten the little girl.
"This humble woman, Jun Liuyue, greets Your Majesty." Liuyue bowed respectfully.
"A commoner? What commoner! You are my most precious princess!"
Feng Chenlan corrected.
Jun Liuyue: ...
Feng Jinzhi: ?
Didn't we agree that we wouldn't care at all?
Sure enough, when it comes to A-Li, the Emperor always says one thing but means another.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu Yue's lips twitched, feeling somewhat overwhelmed by Feng Chenlan's enthusiasm.
A bad thought popped into her mind: wasn't her father Junjing?
But the Azure Dragon Emperor treated her like his own daughter, and Nalan Yao was also the Empress of the Azure Dragon Kingdom. Could it be...?
Liu Yue's gaze towards Feng Chenlan instantly became somewhat complicated.
Feng Chenlan saw through Liuyue's thoughts. "I know that you have grown up in the Jun family all these years. Your father is indeed Jun Jing, but I... am also your father."
Jun Liuyue: ?
She was even more confused.
How can one person have two fathers?
Feng Chenlan cleared his throat. "Back then, your mother didn't just marry Junjing, but she married both me and Junjing."
Cough cough cough! Liu Yue almost choked to death on her own saliva.
Something in my mind seemed to collapse.
“I know you may not understand this, but my feelings for your mother are no less than Junjing’s,” Feng Chenlan said earnestly.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have tolerated Nalan Yao's domineering behavior for so many years.
It was because he hoped that one day, his A-Li could come back.
Junjing is dead. As long as Ali comes back, he will be Ali's only husband.
"I understand, I can understand."
Jun Liuyue considered a million possibilities, even the possibility that her mother had cheated on Feng Chenlan and eloped with Jun Jing.
I never imagined that her mother... could have two men submit to her at the same time! And both of these men were exceptional individuals.
One is a genius who rose from a small border country to become famous throughout the continent through his own strength and talent!
The other is the ruler of the empire, the supreme ruler of all.
Ryuue gasped. This was simply... amazing!
"I will treat you like my own daughter and will never mistreat you. Tell me what you want, and I will find a way to get it for you, even if it's just the stars and the moon!"
Feng Jinzhi, standing to the side: ...
What happened to not caring? What happened to being indifferent?
"No need to pluck stars." Liu Yue's lips twitched slightly. "I have no interest in the princess's position, so it's unnecessary."
What she desires most is freedom; if she were to be bound by the shackles of a princess, her actions would become far more complicated.
Feng Chenlan never expected that this girl would refuse his investiture, after all, she was a princess of the Azure Dragon Kingdom!
As the leader of the four kingdoms, the princess of the Azure Dragon Kingdom should enjoy the support of the people, but this girl seems to have... absolutely no interest in it.
“Little girl, are you sure? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Feng Jinzhi said from the side. “You’d better think it through.”
