Chapter 1374: The Pitiful Nalan Zhangqian IV
Everyone seemed to be in shock. No one spoke for the longest time.
The retired emperor… had actually… made the reclusive world yield?
Just how strong was he back then?
Perhaps the news was too sudden, even the old general kept quiet.
“Your Majesty…” Nalan Zhangqian’s eyes were red. He even lifted his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes while saying, “So, you were just trying to search for the retired emperor. I have misunderstood you. I thought Your Majesty just wanted to goof off, so you have tossed all these grave tasks to me. Please relax and go on, by the time you return, I will hand Liu Yun Kingdom back to you in perfect condition.”
Feng Ruqing glanced at Nalan Zhangqian with pity in her eyes. She wondered if her uncle was too naive to believe in her father’s words so easily.
It was true that he wanted to search for her grandfather, but the problem was that they had no ways to locate her grandfather.
Yet, her father was already throwing his responsibilities to her uncle…
It was clear that he only wanted her uncle to work for him in his place.
Feng Chen too let out a sigh of relief, thankful that there was still a person to replace him so he would not be left in Liu Yun Kingdom.
His ultimate goal was still Qinqin.
He was not willing to give up on cultivating. Or else, even with their blood relations, they would only drift further apart and he could never pursue her again…
“As for the last thing I want to announce, it’s something to do with the princess…” Feng Tianyu continued to say in a low voice.
Nalan Zhangqian was stunned as she stared curiously at Feng Tianyu.
‘Wait…
‘Didn’t His Majesty say he only had two things to announce?
‘Why is there a third?
‘Why do I have a feeling that I just fell into a trap…’
“I’m sure you all know that the princess is now pregnant, and I a.s.sume you’d want to know when the princess and the state preceptor will hold their wedding ceremony…”
When talking about his daughter and his unborn grandchild, a warm smile graced Feng Tianyu’s expression.
The ministers looked at each other as they regained their spirits.
Could it be that… His Majesty would be announcing the date for the princess’s wedding ceremony?
“A wedding ceremony? Hehe…” Feng Tianyu chuckled. “That won’t ever happen! My own grandchild will be raised by me, my own daughter will also be raised by me. I have ample resources, so I can take care of them both!”
‘That b.a.s.t.a.r.d Nan Xian just went and knocked my daughter up without notice!
‘Did he ever consider my feelings as a father?
‘Just thinking that my precious daughter would become a wife, a mother, and even endure the hards.h.i.+ps of ten months of pregnancy makes my heart ache…’
A slight breeze slipped in from outside as a man in white robe stepped into the hall and paused.
His white robes were like snow, his appearance as handsome as a saint, bearing a cold aura like the moon. He was perfect.
“We will hold the wedding ceremony three months later. I can take care of my wife and daughter.”
Feng Tianyu was speechless.
He slammed the desk and stood up in rage.
Was this stupid brat trying to provoke him?
To think he even trusted him so much!
But this b.a.s.t.a.r.d ended up kidnapping his precious daughter!
What a waste of his trust in him!
“Nan Xian!!! She is my daughter!”
Nan Xian responded calmly, “The child in her is my daughter.”
Feng Tianyu felt like his punch had just landed on cotton. It was ineffective.
“I won’t agree to it, never!”
“Father!” Feng Ruqing looked at Feng Tianyu. “I slept with the state preceptor, I must take responsibility.”
Feng Tianyu was speechless.
He kept getting the feeling that his daughter sided with the outsider more.
However, when he met Feng Ruqing’s sincere and resolute gaze, he could only swallow back his words and ask, aggrieved, “When do you want to hold the wedding ceremony?”
