The scenery of the Southern Qi Dynasty was beautiful, and the weather was also good.
Despite being dressed in imperial robes, the Southern Emperor strolled with Xie Lingqin as if taking a leisurely walk. After walking a short distance, he pulled Xie Lingqin's wrist again and said, "Let me take your pulse. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease."
After a moment, he put it down again, looking relieved, "It's alright."
"Father..." Xie Lingqin looked at the Southern Emperor, paused, and tentatively asked, "Do you know Coca-Cola?"
This is something almost every modern person knows, and Xie Lingqin believes that if Nangong Xingyun was a time traveler, he would definitely know it.
She looked at Nangong Xingyun after she finished speaking.
Nangong Xingyun was also looking at her, his gaze slowly, until finally his eyes shone brightly, "Then do you know about red wine?"
Xie Lingqin's breath hitched. After a moment, she was clearly shocked, yet she couldn't quite feel it; it was as if this was just how it was supposed to be.
"That day, when the black-robed man spoke of your background at the Beirong Imperial Mausoleum, I had some doubts. However, thinking about the vast world, it's possible that you came from an even more ancient era. I never had the chance to ask. Now, it's both unexpected and expected."
"I was surprised too, so..."
Xie Lingqin's eyes flashed darkly; this question also puzzled and intrigued her.
"Then Father, are you the Southern Emperor who fell in love with my mother, Yun Yishang, and had me?"
After all that, it turns out he joined halfway through too, so... things have gotten out of hand.
"I am."
Nangong Xingyun spoke calmly, looking at Xie Lingqin, then suddenly raised his hand to stroke his chin, as if thinking of Yun Yishang, his eyes filled with melancholy, "But I was too young back then, whether in my previous life or after transmigrating, I was too young."
Nangong Xingyun stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the pale yellow palace wall in front of him. "You may not know, but in my past life I was a good-for-nothing rich kid. A car accident brought me here. At that time, I met your mother. I loved her very much, but I didn't know how to give her a better future. However... later, it was because of her that I realized how ridiculous my past twenty-odd years were."
More than twenty years...
Xie Lingqin's lips were a little stiff.
So young!
—But it was her father!
Nangong Xingyun sighed, his gaze falling on Xie Lingqin again, feeling very fortunate, "Fortunately, I have you. Now I have you to make up for what I have to do with."
"I think my mother is a rational person. She went from being kind and innocent at the beginning to understanding the rules of survival in this world."
"Yes, back then, she was really..."
Nangong Xingyun's sudden smile carried a hint of sadness. "I love her, and I still do."
What kind of job did you do in that world?
Nangong Xingyun suddenly asked.
Xie Lingqin pursed her lips slightly, "Agent, the best agent."
Nangong Xingyun nodded. "Perhaps we have met before."
Xie Lingqin frowned.
"I'm not just a rich kid, I'm also what people call an official..."
Nangong Xing didn't finish his sentence, but Xie Lingqin already understood.
Such a governing approach, leading to a peaceful and prosperous Southern Qi dynasty, is something that no ordinary playboy could achieve. Even if he were, the cultural depth he possessed would be beyond the reach of most.
"hehe……"
"hehe……"
The father and daughter looked at each other and then smiled.
They are father and daughter, but also seem to be close friends.
They also learned all of each other's secrets.
"Lingqin, you are my daughter. I have wronged you in the past, but now I only want you to be happy. Girls should be happy and laugh. Look how silly Phoenix is all day long."
silly?
If Nan Fenghuang were to hear her father's evaluation of her, her psychological trauma would only worsen.
"Furthermore, your father needs to tell you that even though you have experienced a love affair that has left you scarred and broken, you still have me, your father, and the entire Southern Qi, who are your strongest support."
Xie Lingqin's eyelashes trembled, and she pursed her lips. "I believe it. And today, in this strategic military location, I have established my authority and won over the hearts of the troops. However, I am worried about what the people of Southern Qi will think about this battle between Northern Rong and Southern Qi."
"As expected by all."
Nangong Xingyun said, "Beirong has been eyeing my Southern Qi for many years, but I have always acted gently and approachably, which is why Yuwen Shu has been able to lower his guard. Now, in a way, you are just a fuse. However..." Nangong Xingyun raised his hand and patted Xie Lingqin's shoulder, "Little Qin, the world's affairs, after a long period of division, will unite, and after a long period of unity, will divide again. This is an unchanging law. Even if you don't cause any waves in your generation, what about in the future? So, you have only brought forward the timeline."
Hearing these words, Xie Lingqin felt a sudden sense of relief, as if a warm breeze had swept over her.
"Father has thought things through very well."
"Then, will Father Emperor publicly choose a husband for you?"
Nangong Xingyun looked at Xie Lingqin; the change in tone didn't seem like a joke.
"Or, how about Xu Yiran? She's been with you for so long, you should give her a proper status eventually."
Xie Lingqin...
"I think Xu Yiran is really good-looking. In modern terms, he has a career, ability, and looks. He's the epitome of a tall, rich, and handsome man, the dream idol of thousands of women. He's even more handsome than... well, Dicky Cheung and Andy Lau..."
“Zhang Weijian, Andy Lau?” Xie Lingqin raised her hand to her forehead. “Sure enough, you wore it almost twenty years before me.”
"Huh, could it be that they're past their prime?"
"It's still relevant."
Xie Lingqin looked at the high walls and tiles in front of her, and then looked around. If it weren't for the surrounding scenery reminding her, she would really feel like she didn't know what day it was or where she was.
