Chapter 204 A Dignified Farewell
Changing the subject, the emperor immediately asked Xu Yingying, "Now I ask you, I'll give you another chance, are you willing to marry the princess or continue the unfinished wedding with the princess?"
When Xu Yingying heard this, she immediately revealed a smile that was uglier than crying.
Xu Yingying took a deep breath, then mustered up her courage and said, "Your Majesty, I don't want to choose any of them. I want to follow His Majesty and build a career for our Dafeng Dynasty."
Xu Yingying said in a strong voice.
The emperor nodded with satisfaction when he heard this. "You are quite responsible. I didn't misjudge you. Then I will cancel your engagement with the princess as you wish and let you go."
"To the outside world, I will also announce that this is just a farce and does not count at all. Then I will choose better husbands for the county lord and princess."
After hearing the emperor's arrangement, Xu Yingying breathed a sigh of relief, then knelt down to express her gratitude, saying, "Your Majesty is wise, thank you for your help."
"Okay, you can leave the palace now." The emperor waved his hand.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I'll take my leave." After Xu Yingying kowtowed to the emperor, she couldn't wait to leave.
On the road.
As Xu Yingying was walking, a eunuch stopped her.
"Sir Xu, does my queen want to see you?" the eunuch said to Xu Yingying.
Xu Yingying was slightly stunned when she heard this, but she quickly guessed who the eunuch was referring to.
Xu Yingying followed the eunuch and walked over, only to see the imperial concubine sitting in a hidden corner waiting for Xu Yingying.
"Are you here?" The imperial concubine immediately put down the teacup in her hand after seeing Xu Yingying.
"Your humble servant greets Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine. I would like to thank Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine for speaking for me in front of the Emperor. I wonder if Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine has called me here to tell me something." Xu Yingying said gratefully.
She naturally understood that the Royal Concubine's help to her this time was not in vain. All shortcuts in life had already been secretly priced.
The Imperial Concubine was satisfied when she saw Xu Yingying being so understanding. "Not bad, not bad. Lord Xu is indeed as smart as the rumors say. I asked you to come here today for no other reason than to get the military token from Li Siqi for me. As for how to get it, you figure it out. I only care about the result."
The Imperial Concubine said calmly.
"Okay, I'll obey your command." Xu Yingying agreed without hesitation.
When the imperial concubine saw Xu Yingying's answer so readily, the smile on her face became even wider. She thought that this move had successfully bribed Xu Yingying.
Little did she know that Xu Yingying didn't take what she said to heart at all. Xu Yingying now just wanted to deal with her and then quickly go back to meet Li Siqi.
"If Your Majesty has nothing else to say, I will take my leave first." Xu Yingying said respectfully to the Imperial Concubine.
"Okay, I really don't have anything else to do, so you can leave!" The imperial concubine waved her hand.
In this way, Xu Yingying successfully left the palace.
It was obvious that Li Siqi secretly hired someone to monitor Xu Yingying in the palace. As soon as Xu Yingying left the palace, she saw the carriage waiting for her in the corner.
She was very familiar with the logo on the carriage. It was the unique logo of Li Siqi's carriage.
Seeing this, Xu Yingying hurried over, and just like that, the two met successfully.
"Your Highness, where is my mother going next?" Xu Yingying asked impatiently after getting on the carriage.
"Of course, back to the county." Li Siqi answered without hesitation.
"Your Highness, I have an unwelcome request. Can we go to Prince Dun's mansion before we go back? I want to go see Li Qinyuan and say goodbye to her!"
Xu Yingying said with some guilt that she was afraid that Li Qinyuan would be unable to get over it and do something to hurt herself. After all, in this dynasty, it was a great shame for a woman if her husband ran away on the wedding day.
Li Siqi was slightly stunned when he heard Xu Yingying's request, but he still nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's do as you say! Let's go to Prince Dun's mansion first! But my identity is quite special, so I won't get off the carriage when the time comes."
Li Siqi spoke to Xu Yingying.
"Okay." Xu Yingying nodded.
The back door of Prince Dun’s residence.
Li Qinyuan, who was always arrogant, appeared in front of Xu Yingying wearing a veil and plain clothes, looking extremely low-key.
"Why did you come to see me again?" Li Qinyuan asked Xu Yingying with red eyes.
"Uh... Actually, I came here to say goodbye to you. I'm going back to the county. Secondly, I don't like girls. I like boys. And I think you are a very good girl. I hope you can find a better husband."
Xu Yingying spoke to Li Qinyuan very sincerely.
To Li Qinyuan, Xu Yingying's words were like a bolt from the blue.
"You mean... I lost to a boy?" Li Qinyuan couldn't accept it.
Hearing this, Xu Yingying nodded her head and replied with a guilty conscience, "Yes."
Hearing Xu Yingying admit it herself, Li Qinyuan sighed helplessly, as if she had compromised, "Okay! Actually, I have already thought it through during this period of time. Since you really don't like me, you won't be happy if I force you to stay by my side. It's better to let you go."
After saying that, Li Qinyuan took off the sachet from her waist and handed it to Xu Yingying.
"I made this myself. I'm giving it to you now. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can tell me. Although we are not destined to be husband and wife, we can still be friends."
Li Qinyuan spoke to Xu Yingying very sincerely.
Xu Yingying nodded quickly when she heard it and said, "Okay, I hope you can think it through. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can tell me and I will do my best to help you."
"Okay, then I wish you all the best." Li Qinyuan laughed heartily when she heard this, as if she had returned to her old self who was full of vigor and vitality.
"Okay, then I also wish you to be free and unrestrained, as high-spirited and carefree as before." Xu Yingying said sincerely.
"Go back! I'm leaving." Xu Yingying waved goodbye to Li Qinyuan.
After saying that, Xu Yingying got on the carriage.
In this way, Xu Yingying and Li Siqi finally arrived at the county after a day and a night of travel.
At the same time, Camellia's headache gradually got better.
Because Xu Yingying had stayed in the palace for too long, Sun Yongan became restless and kept urging Xu Yingying.
"Master Xu, you promised me to avenge us. When can you invite Guo Shaoqi out?"
Sun Yongan said to Xu Yingying with an impatient look on his face.
