Chapter 645 - 645. Things Are Not Good

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Miss Su Qing, thank you for saving my life. You’re back. Where’s Li’er? Is he alright?

Consort Li first thanked Su Qing for saving her and the Emperor, then anxiously asked about her grandson’s condition.

“You don’t have to thank me. You just have to promise me one thing.”

Su Qing did not answer Consort Li’s question. Instead, she looked at the old Emperor and began to discuss her conditions.

The old Emperor felt that things were not good. Now, Su Qing no longer spoke to them with the courtesy of relatives. Saving them was not as unconditional as before.

He guessed that Su Qing’s condition was something he would not be able to agree to. However, she had just saved him and the Tartan Kingdom. No matter what condition she proposed, he did not seem to have the right to reject it.

“What condition?”

The old Emperor could only ask Su Qing. Su Qing glanced at him before opening her mouth and saying,

” Let Yeluchun and Xiao Ying separate. Li’er belongs to Xiao Ying.”

“What?”

Consort Li thought that she had heard wrongly. How could a woman’s family allow a divorce? Wasn’t a woman’s chastity greater than the sky in the Central Plains?

How was Xiao Ying going to continue living after the divorce?

Not to mention taking Li’er away. Li’er was of the imperial family’s bloodline. How could he wander about in a foreign land?

“Emperor, what do you think?”

Su Qing did not look at Consort Li and only asked the old Emperor. Whether the old Emperor agreed or not, she would have done so. Asking him was only her last form of respect.

“Miss Su, Chun’er only treated Xiao Ying like that because the love spell poisoned him. He lost his memory and doesn’t know anyone. He only calls Xiao Ying’s name. Now that he’s missing, I discovered he’s gone to Mo City. Although Chun’ er is my son, I don’t have the right to agree on his behalf. I’m grateful that you saved us. I’ll agree to any condition you want, except for this one.”

The old Emperor shook his head. He did not want to lose Xiao Ying, this good daughter-in-law, and did not want to lose Li’er. Hence, he was unable to agree. “Yeluchun went to Mo City?”

When Su Qing heard this, she was stunned. When she treated Yeluchun, she had erased his memories. Her goal was to separate him from Xiao Ying. She didn’t expect him to remember Xiao Ying under such circumstances still.

“Yes, Chun ‘er has deep feelings for Xiao Ying. I hope Miss Su won’t break up the couple. If Xiao Ying insists on separating, I’ll agree to her taking Li’er away.”

The old emperor said it with great difficulty but still promised Xiao Ying to take Li’er away without hesitation. But the prerequisite was that she gave up on Yeluchun.

“Alright, I’ll respect Xiao Ying’s opinion, too.”

Su Qing thought for a moment and nodded. Her goal was to make Xiao Ying happy and away from danger. Only when she returned to the country would she and Shuisheng be able to protect her.

However, if Xiao Ying was unhappy, then there was no point in doing so.

“Miss Su, was Li’er saved? Can you let us see him?”

Consort Li saw that Su Qing didn’t force her anymore, so she asked her timidly. She missed Li’er so much day and night. She dreamed that Li’er was critically ill and worried about him.

“He’s saved.”

Su Qing glanced at Consort Li. She and the old Emperor had always been good. If not for them protecting Li’er, the child would have long been killed.

“Can I see him?”

Consort Li pleaded with Su Qing. Su Qing nodded and carried Li’er out of the system. Li’er had just left the system when he saw the torch and was very curious. His large eyes stared at the torch’s light, and his two small hands were placed in his mouth to nibble. His small face was pink, and one could not glimpse the Chinese poison at all.

Su Qing fed him goat’s milk all the way. The child did not lose weight and put in a lot of effort. The gaze she had when she hugged Li’er was not like the coldness and sternness when she killed people earlier, and became very gentle. “Li’er, Li’er!”

When Consort Li saw that her grandson was still alive and well, tears flowed down at that time. She took Li’er from Su Qing’s embrace and kissed his face repeatedly, unwilling to let go.

“Miss Su, you have done us a great favor. I represent Tartan and Chun ’er to thank you.”

The old Emperor was very smart. He pulled his son along to thank Su Qing, hoping she would remember their past kinship.

“I have to take the child away. Xiao Ying is waiting for the child to return. I will ask Xiao Ying about their plans. If she wants to go back, we will take her. If she still has feelings for Yelu Chun, we will send the three of them back.”

Su Qing saw how much the old couple loved their child, so she didn’t say anything too heartless and gave them a guarantee.

“Can’t he stay here?”

Consort Li couldn’t bear to discuss this with Su Qing. The old Emperor tugged at her and said,

” Xiao Ying must be even more anxious than us. Let Su Qing carry him back. I believe that Xiao Ying and Li’er will return.”

No one could stop Su Qing if she wanted to take her away. The old Emperor knew this very well. He could only be soft with her, not hard. Otherwise, it would only backfire. She was a person who could be coaxed but not forced.

Su Qing saw that the old Emperor was very righteous and agreed to let Consort Li and take care of Li’er for a night. Tomorrow morning, she will bring the child back.

In Mo City, Xiao Ying sat before the bed and looked at Yelu Chun, whose eyes were tightly shut. The image of him saving her twice appeared in her mind again. He was the first man she fell in love with. How could she forget him so easily?

At this moment, he was lying quietly on the bed. His deep eyes were closed tightly. No one could see the deep love or ruthlessness in them. He was like a child who had gone astray!

Forgive him or not?

Xiao Ying was very conflicted. Li Shuang ‘er visited Xiao Ying after feeding her brother. Li Shuang’ er sighed when she saw Xiao Ying’s tearful face and painful eyes. She was no longer the carefree Xiao Ying she had been before. She was so sad and depressed that her heart ached.

“Xiao Ying.”

Li Shuang ‘er took a bowl of red dates and white fungus soup from the servant girl’s tray.

“Xiao Ying, eat something. You haven’t even eaten dinner. This won’t do.”

“Sister Shuang ‘er.

“I’m not hungry,”

Xiao Ying wiped her tears and forced a smile.

“You have to eat even if you’re not hungry. Don’t punish yourself with other people’s mistakes.”

Li Shuang ‘er had heard Xiao Ying talk about how heartless Yelu Chun was, and she got angry just looking at him.

“I miss Li’er. My Sister-in-law has already left for half a month, and I still don’t know how the child is?”

Xiao Ying shook her head. Even though she was sad about Yeluchun’s heartlessness towards her, she was more worried for her son. She would dream of Li’er lying there helplessly. Every time she woke up and couldn’t touch her child, she would cry for the entire night, unable to fall asleep again.

This kind of torture was what Xiao Ying couldn’t stand the most!

” You should believe in Sister Su Qing. As long as she takes action, Li’er will be fine.”

Li Shuang ‘er was full of confidence. Those so-called divine doctors were not even comparable to Sister Su Qing’s phoenix feathers and qilin horns.

Xiao Ying nodded. It was only because she knew that her sister-in-law was involved that she did not break down. Otherwise, she would have long been in despair after so many days.

Li Shuang ‘er stayed for a while before leaving. At night, Xiao Zeyu ordered people to get Xiao Ying back to rest. He also sent a servant girl to take care of Yeluchun.

Ah Lu didn’t let Xiao Ying leave.

” Princess Consort, don’t go. His Highness will hurt himself if he wakes up and can’t find you.”

“Xiao Ying, don’t go!” Yeluchun suddenly shouted as if he was cooperating with Ah Lu..
