A dead person, no matter how good he is, is still dead.
The emperor comforted himself.
That was all he could think about.
Otherwise, what else could he do?
He had no way to deal with Xu Lingyi.
He couldn't bear to blame her for still liking Xie Huaixing.
It was possible that she was deliberately playing with him.
Then we can only blame Xie Huaixing.
But the prerequisite for dealing with Xie Huaixing is that they can get out of here.
But whether we can find a way out now is still unknown?
"Yier, do you want to go out from here?" The emperor stared at Xu Lingyi's face.
Even though she is not wearing any decorations now, her face is still fresh and refined, and her beauty is captivating.
"Of course I want to go out." Xu Lingyi said.
When the emperor heard this, his eyes darkened and his brows furrowed. He couldn't help but wonder in his heart if she wanted to go out because Xie Huaixing was outside.
The emperor didn't ask.
"Your Majesty, why do you ask this suddenly? Haven't we always wanted to go out? Don't you want to go out?"
The emperor didn't know that he suddenly felt that the current situation was pretty good.
There were only the two of them here, no one else involved.
The most important thing is that Xie Huaixing is not here.
Even if she might be thinking about Xie Huaixing in her heart, she would not have any chance with him.
Facing Xu Lingyi's confusion, the emperor lowered his eyes and said, "I want to go out too."
He didn't want her to know the complicated thoughts in his heart.
Also listed are his and her relatives.
For the sake of their loved ones, they must also try their best to find a way out.

In the capital city.
"Empress Dowager, please take care of yourself." The nanny hurriedly supported the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager has always paid attention to maintenance and health preservation. She has been a one in a million beautiful woman since she was young. Otherwise, she would not have been the only one favored in the late emperor's harem.
But in recent days, the Queen Mother has become much more haggard.
"How can I take care of myself? They say the emperor is dead, and everyone in the court has submitted a petition to adopt a relative from the royal family to take the emperor's place! My son's life or death is uncertain, and they are doing this. How can I possibly agree?"
The Queen Mother's face was covered with tears.
In fact, Nanny also felt that His Majesty had already... After all, that was a bottomless abyss, how could he survive if he fell in?
But the Queen Mother was stubborn and unwilling to accept reality.
Mammy can totally understand.
The Queen Mother only had two princes in her life. She had already lost a young man once, so how could she accept losing him a second time?
But even if the Queen Mother could not accept it, the country could not be without a master for a day... She could already foresee that the Queen Mother would be forced to compromise in the end.
I just hope that by then, the Queen can hold on.
"If my son had a prince, these people would never dare to force me like this."
The Queen Mother spoke but was filled with regret. She quickly shook her head, "No, I can't say such things anymore. I would rather not have a grandson. As long as the emperor returns safely, he will be my only son. If he is gone, I don't want to live anymore."
The emperor usually has a cold face, but the empress dowager knows that her own son has her in his heart and is filial to her.
No matter what happens between them, they are still mother and son.
The Empress Dowager in the palace was worried about the Emperor, but the Xu family was in high spirits.
"Mother, I feel comfortable only when Xu Lingyi, that bitch, is not in this mansion."
Ever since they found Xu Lingyi's jewelry on the edge of the cliff that day, the princess and the others knew that Xu Lingyi had fallen off the cliff.
When they knew Xu Lingyi was dead, they simply told others that Xu Lingyi had eloped with a strange man.
After all, the dead can't speak.
"Mother is also very happy, but I am worried about your father coming back..."
The princess still cared about Father Xu. She had fallen in love with this man back then. Even though he treated her with respect on the surface, he avoided her like the plague in private.
But she still likes him.
"What is there for mother to be afraid of? His Majesty's life and death are uncertain. Brother Xie told me that he is very likely to take the position. The court officials are all recommending him, but the Queen Mother and the people behind her are unwilling. As long as father supports Brother Xie and stands by him, Brother Xie's throne will be a sure thing. When he ascends the throne in the future, I will naturally be the Queen. Can father still blame the Queen?"
Xu Lingmian's face has healed recently, with only a faint scar left.
She applies medicine every day and believes that after a while there will be no more scars.
In addition, Xie Huaixing was about to embark on a road to success, which made her even more proud.
The princess gently stroked her hair, a worried look on her face. "Xie Huaixing...did he say in person that he would make you queen?"
Xu Lingmian shook his head. "No, but besides me, are there any other candidates? That female doctor is of such a lowly status, how can she compare to my daughter? I am a princess, and the daughter of a great general. As long as Daddy helps Brother Xie, there is no reason for him not to marry me. Mother, don't worry, my daughter will soon become the most noble woman in the world."
"Don't underestimate a man's affection. Mother is just afraid that he will be carried away by it."
Xu Lingmian said what was hidden in his heart.
"But mother, I don't think Brother Xie really likes that female doctor."
"Sometimes I feel that he cares a lot about that female doctor, but sometimes I feel that Brother Xie is just so-so towards her, or even a little cold. I can never quite understand Brother Xie's attitude."
The princess frowned instead. She didn't have much contact with Xie Huaixing and didn't know him very well.
But my daughter was completely absorbed in it.
