Chapter 1095: Nan Xian's Whereabouts II

"Your name will be Snake Soup until you find the state preceptor."

Feng Ruqing carried its tail and walked out of the back garden with a cold face, leaving only Xiao Qing's tears in the air, with endless heartache and grievances.

It always felt like it was jumping into a fire pit, and could never climb out of it.

***

In the imperial study room of Haitian Kingdom.

Princess Qingjiu bit her lip. Her formerly innocent face was now covered with a resolute, determined expression.

"Father, I don't want to marry anyone, especially those so-called talented young masters within Haitian Kingdom."

She had no interest in any of them.

Fu Yu frowned and sighed helplessly. "Qingjiu, you are not young anymore. Father will not interfere with your marriage, but at least the person you marry must be from Haitian Kingdom, do you understand? You may choose one of those people to be your husband, but that man of unknown origin can never be your husband!"

Qingjiu stiffened as she clenched her fists unconsciously. Her bright and cold eyes were irrepressible.

"Father, I will decide on my marriage. Even if he has nothing, as long as we love each other, I have no fear of being with him. If I don't love a person, even if he was the strongest man in the world, I will not marry him."

In her lifetime, she had been looking for a person who could touch her heart. She would not listen to her father's words and simply chose a young talent from Haitian Kingdom to marry.

"Qingjiu!" Fu Yu's face darkened. "I don't mind if it was anyone else. But I heard that the young man has been unconscious and may not be able to regain consciousness for the rest of his life. You are taking care of him now and will you do that for the rest of your life?"

Princess Qingjiu smiled bitterly. "If he really can't wake up for the rest of his life, then I will keep him with me forever. Father, I won't regret the decision that I have made."

She turned slowly and left the study room without saying anything more.

"Qingjiu." Fu Yu stood up. There was a faint gleam in his eyes. "I don't care. In half a month, I'll be hosting a Flower Banquet. You must come and choose one of those young talents as your husband! I have pampered you and indulged you for decades, and I will not listen to you this time."

He had allowed Qingjiu to bring back a strange man.

And he had allowed that man to stay in the side chamber of Qingjiu's pavilion.

He had never stopped Qingjiu from visiting him regularly, and he had never bothered them.

But he forbade this man to marry his daughter!

There was no need to rush Qingjiu's marriage, but her daughter could not just find a commoner to marry.

That man was odd in every way, and he did not have any trace of spiritual qi in his body.

He knew that Qingjiu would hate him for this, but he must let her marry somebody else. On this matter, he could not pamper her as he usually would.

***

The side chamber of Qingjiu's pavilion was more luxurious than the other main chambers.

Two servants were standing outside the chamber. After seeing that Princess Qingjiu had walked in, they both bent down with respect to the princess. "Respects to Your Royal Highness."

Qingjiu waved her hands, asking the servants to open the doors of the chamber and slowly stepped into it.

Dazzling scents diffused through the whole room and a light breeze was stirring the bed curtains.

The man on the bed slept peacefully. Even with his stiffened face, he looked stunningly beautiful.

Qingjiu had never met someone who was as handsome as him in her life before.
