C104 There Is No Excuse for Hundreds of Questions (2/2)
At this moment, Yan Xiaoxi seemed to understand.
She had thought that her love for Nangong Lin had reached an impeccable level and that they had reached a tacit agreement. They had such a sweet relationship. However, in front of such a trial, they were unable to withstand even a single blow.
They didn't even have the basic trust between them.
Yan Xiaoxi's heart instantly turned cold.
Nangong Lin, what right do you have to make her believe you no matter what the circumstances are? What can't be done by herself, what right do you have to force it on others?
The scenes of the past played out in front of his eyes. All the beautiful scenes from the past flooded into his mind like a sea.
Yan Xiaoxi discovered that they had truly gone through too many things together. There were doubts, disputes, sweetness, and no trust.
She felt that she was very ironic, very foolish, and very naive. She actually believed that Nangong Lin was truly dead set on her and would not change even if she died.
Even they were unable to pass through such a small obstacle. Yan Xiaoxi was unable to imagine just how this love would turn into over the course of such a long period of time.
”Someone, lock Princess Lin into the Sky Prison!” Without saying a word, Nangong Xiao suddenly made a move and issued an order.
”Father.” Nangong Lin looked at Nangong Xiao in anger. Both of their deep eyes seemed to have a large amount of their own.
”Lin`er, Xi`er pushed the imperial concubine down and we saw it with our own eyes. The crime of murdering an imperial heir is not small at all.” Nangong Xiao shifted her gaze to Yan Xiaoxi. Hearing his words, Yan Xiaoxi did not cry out in injustice, nor did she cry out. She did not even try to quibble about it as she quietly looked at Nangong Lin with eyes filled with disappointment.
Perhaps this was the result that Nangong Lin wanted to see.
Although Nangong Xiao did not support Nangong Lin's decision, for the sake of the Southern Water Country, he had no other choice.
Yan Xiaoxi was a good woman, if one had to blame something, they could only blame her for having a relationship with the Immortal Spirit Island.
He really couldn't afford to offend the Immortal Spirit Island.
”Today, no matter who it is, This King won't let you all understand a single hair on Xi Er's head.” Even when facing the ruler of a country, his own father, Nangong Lin, was neither humble nor haughty. He did not have the slightest trace of fear in his expression.
”Lin'er.” He had also seen many similar things. Based on his understanding of Yan Xiaoxi, she definitely would not have pushed Liu Zhixue.
Despite knowing that she had been framed, Nangong Xiao could not go back on her conscience and cruelly punish her.
”Father, this king will not say this a second time.” Nangong Lin's gaze was cold as he looked coldly at Nangong Xiao.
”Forget it. You can bring Princess Lin away.” In the end, Nangong Xiao compromised. He truly had no other choice for his son. Since he wanted to protect her, he would hand the matter over to him.
”Father, your son is unwilling.” Nangong Zhen said indignantly. He never expected that Nangong Xiao would ignore the emperor's son that Yan Xiaoxi had harmed just because Nangong Lin had protected her, sparing a vicious woman.
If things reversed and Liu Zhixue had hurt the child in Yan Xiaoxi's womb, the outcome of the matter could be imagined. Liu Zhixue would have already been imprisoned and dealt with afterwards.
Now, his royal father's biased performance was unexpectedly perfect. Nangong Zhen was unwilling to accept this. Since young, which part of him was inferior to Nangong Lin and had his father always favored Nangong Lin?
”There's no need to discuss this further.” With that, she turned and left, leaving behind the dumbfounded Imperial Concubine Xiao and the resentful Nangong Zhen.
Even though they were indignant, they could do nothing about it. After all, Nangong Xiao was the emperor and his words were an imperial edict that they could neither refute nor change.
