Chapter 203: Counter-calculated
In Princess Lexi's heart, even if she can't be with Lan Tingxuan, she has to choose a man who is better than him, but now that the matter has come to this, she has no choice, even if she is unwilling and unwilling, she will not be able to escape the fate of marrying Feng Kun.
If Feng Kun was a man who was better than Lan Tingxuan, maybe she wouldn't resist so much, but he was a womanizer who couldn't be compared anywhere, and he was useless except for his family background.
Xing Tianqi sat at the desk waiting for her answer, but she refused to talk about the topic in silence, but it was useless to run away from it at this point.
"Since you don't have any ideas, then I will make a decree tomorrow so that you can get married as soon as possible." Xing Tianqi said helplessly, things have developed to this point, even if he doesn't want to, he can only marry Feng Kun, this is the only way now.
"I'm not married." Princess Lexi refused without thinking about it, knowing that this was the only solution, but she was still very reluctant.
"You're not married? So what do you want? Xing Tianqi thought that she had figured it out, who would have thought that she would still resist like this, but even if she didn't want to, she could only marry him, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to explain to Hua Duguo at all.
"Lexi, I know that you have been wronged, but the matter has come to this point, if you don't marry him, who else can you marry? Or do you plan to never marry for the rest of your life? Is this possible? Xing Tianqi persuaded hard, hoping that she could think clearly about the consequences of this matter.
Princess Lexi lowered her head bitterly when she heard his words, since she knew that Lan Tingxuan would not be with her, she had never thought about choosing a colt again, but she deceived herself into thinking that she still had a chance, but if she married someone now, the little hope in her heart would also be shattered.
"Your Majesty, I really don't want to get married." Thinking about it, she suddenly cried aggrievedly, she just wanted to marry the person she liked, how could it be so difficult?
Seeing this, Xing Tianqi sighed helplessly, what she was thinking in her heart He knew clearly, but Lan Tingxuan's attitude also showed that it was impossible to make a strong order for Lan Tingxuan to marry her, so she could only choose to give up.
originally thought that after so much time, she had let go, even if she couldn't let go, her liking for him was not so strong, who would have thought that at this time, she still only had him in her heart, and her liking for him continued unabated.
He walked around the desk to her side and gently hugged her into his arms, for him, she was also his sister, so he naturally didn't want her to be wronged, but now he had no choice but to let her marry Feng Kun.
Even if he doesn't make an order, after Shangshu knows that his son has done something ugly, he will think of a way to make up for Princess Lexi, as for how to make up for it, the answer is self-evident.
Hubu Shangshu is an honest official, so he naturally will not allow his son to make mistakes, but for Feng Kun, he has always been helpless, every time he sees him in and out of Huajie Willow Lane, he wants to break his legs, but because he owes him, he can only turn a blind eye.
Now that he has made such a big mistake, he naturally will not sit idly by, just now Feng Kun also offered to marry Princess Lexi as his wife, if Hubu Shangshu knew about this, he would definitely enter the palace to ask to marry the princess.
"Lexi, I know that Feng Kun has never been on your list of concubines, but something has happened, and there is no way to refuse, a woman has lost her innocence, and it is impossible to marry someone else." Xing Tianqi said softly, hoping that she could figure out the seriousness of this matter.
For this matter, Princess Lexi naturally knows how serious it is, originally the marriage was not up to herself, it was the love of the queen mother and the favor of Xing Tianqi that gave her the right to choose, but despite this, she could not completely rely on her own temperament, and now that such a thing has happened, she has no right to choose.
Originally, the emperor of Huadu Kingdom wanted her to marry Xing Tianqi, but she longed for a free life and didn't want to be trapped in the palace for the rest of her life, so she told him what she thought, who would have thought that he would agree without thinking about it, and even let herself live in the palace and enjoy the same treatment as the princess of Xingqi Kingdom.
He was already very indulgent to himself, and he didn't want to embarrass him anymore, so he could only choose to agree, but he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.
"It's all up to the emperor." She clutched at the hem of his shirt in despair, feeling that after saying this, all the strength in her body was gone, and even the hope of living was gone.
"Lexi, don't worry, I won't let him bully you." Xing Tianqi felt her despair, distressed, but helpless, if nothing had happened to the two of them, there would be other opportunities to make amends, but she had lost her innocence, and she had no choice but to marry Feng Kun.
Princess Lexi leaned into his arms and cried out loud in despair, struggling for so many years, after all, she couldn't resist fate, and she still couldn't help but marry someone she didn't like.
Xing Tianqi let her cry, and when she finished venting, she asked again what was going on, only when she explained it clearly, she knew where to start, but she was worried that it would touch her sadness and make her desperate again.
After thinking about it, I decided to ask her, if I didn't ask clearly, this matter would not be traced at all, let alone where to start.
After Princess Lexi vented and felt that her mood calmed down a little, Xing Tianqi still asked, and as soon as the words came out, her body suddenly froze, which made him suspicious, feeling that this matter was not so simple.
After hesitating for a while, she still said that she had designed Lan Tingxuan, although Huadu Country was open, it had not yet reached the point of fornicating with someone before she got married, so she didn't think about what to him from the beginning, knowing that he was an upright person, even if it was just two people lying on the same bed and didn't do anything, he would be responsible, so he dared to do this, but the result was too surprising to her.
"You designed Lan Tingxuan?" Xing Tianqi listened to her words, and her eyes widened in shock, a woman actually used her innocence to design others, this is really bold enough.
"It was just for him to lie down in my bed, who would have thought it would be like this." At this time, Princess Lexi regretted it, if she knew that things would turn out like this, she would not have done this by killing her.
"And where is he now?" If this matter involves Lan Tingxuan, then where is he now? How can someone who is already in a coma suddenly disappear?
"I don't know." She shook her head weakly, having no idea where he was from the time she woke up until now.
Seeing this, Xing Tianqi could only send someone to look for it, in order not to make people suspicious, he could only be said to summon him to see a doctor, otherwise this matter would spread out, and Princess Lexi's face would be gone.
After searching for a long time, he found Lan Tingxuan, who was still unconscious, in the room in the backyard of the Tai Hospital, in order to let him go to see the emperor soberly, the doctors in the Tai Hospital used various means to make him sober, you can imagine how ruthless Princess Lexi was in medicine for him in order to be successful.
When Lan Tingxuan woke up and found himself lying in the Tai Hospital, he was greatly relieved, he was very worried that he would still be in Princess Lexi's dormitory after waking up, which was already a betrayal of Jiang Liuli for him.
Because of Xing Tianqi's summons, even if his body has not yet recovered, he still has to rush to the imperial study, but his body is weak and he walks staggeringly, if it were not for the eunuch on the side to support him, he would have already fallen to the ground.
Insisting on coming to the imperial study, he walked in tremblingly, and when he saw Princess Lexi on the side, he hurriedly stayed away from her, afraid that he would be calculated by her again.
"See the emperor." Lan Tingxuan knelt weakly on the ground and didn't want to get up, Xing Tianqi saw this, and knew that the effect of his medicine had not faded yet, so Feng Kun's matter really had nothing to do with him.
After glaring at Princess Lexi, he hurriedly stepped forward and helped him up, let him sit on the chair next to him, looked at his pale and weak face and sighed repeatedly, if Princess Lexi's plan succeeded, not only Lan Tingxuan would be hurt, but even his wife would be hurt, she had gone too far in doing this.
Seeing him like this, Princess Lexi lowered her head guiltily, in order to make him completely unconscious, she put a lot of *, but now it seems that she put too much.
"I'm fine, I just asked Lexi to apologize to you, this time, she did too much." Xing Tianqi said helplessly, at first he wanted to ask him about Feng Kun, but now it seems that he doesn't know that it is naturally impossible for a person who is so sleepy to wake up halfway and take Feng Kun to Princess Lexi's bedroom.
What's more, with his character, he would not have done such a thing, and now it seems that it is even more difficult to find out the truth of this matter.
When Princess Lexi saw that Xing Tianqi suddenly changed the topic, she knew that Lan Tingxuan had nothing to do with this matter, so she could only swallow the unwillingness and resentment in her heart, stand in front of him, and apologize to him as the princess of a country, which can be regarded as a very shameful thing for her.
"I can't afford this apology from the princess." When Lan Tingxuan saw her coming, he quickly got up from the chair and took a few steps back, now he was like a snake and scorpion to her.
When Princess Lexi saw him like this, her heart hurt even more, but she was helpless, who made herself so unbearable in his eyes.
Xing Tianqi naturally saw that Lan Tingxuan was alienated from her, even cold, and knew that he also had a grudge in his heart, so he could only slow down the matter first.
"In that case, then you go back first, I will give you a few days off, rest at home, and then enter the palace on duty when your body is well." Xing Tianqi understands his body, and the other is that he hopes that the two will not see each other again in the next few days, so that they can ease each other's emotions.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lan Tingxuan didn't think about answering, at this time, the last place he wanted to stay was the palace, and he didn't want to see Princess Lexi.
"I'll send you back." Seeing that his body was still weak, he could only let someone send him back, otherwise with his current condition, he would not even be able to go out of the palace gate.
Lan Tingxuan knew his situation, so he didn't refuse, and with the support of the eunuch, he walked out of the imperial study without looking back.
Princess Lexi knew that he was disgusted with himself at this moment, and the pain in her heart was getting deeper and deeper, since she couldn't marry him, it didn't matter who she married, thinking of this, she smiled desperately.
Xing Tianqi saw her staring blankly at Lan Tingxuan's departing figure, shook his head helplessly, and then came to the bookcase and personally wrote the marriage edict, once this edict was announced to the world, there was no possibility of changing it.
