Chapter 1464: Glass Purple Star

the same thing he was, that if the emperor’s medicine wasn't administered carefully, Xi'er would become the one who killed the emperor."Your Majesty, your daughter-in-law will go back and carefully co..."Don't give me that, you know what I mean."

Lu Nian's voice carried a hint of displeasure. If it weren't for his sister protecting him, he wouldn't agree to live here.

"If I said that Xiaofeng and I were just ordinary friends, would Young Master Lu believe me" Tao Su smiled. "Xiaofeng is worthy of my respect, and I wouldn't have any improper thoughts towards her."

"Don't you think she's past her prime, having been married and given birth to three children"

Lu Nian questioned, Tao Su was startled, wanting to cry but unable to.

“Of course not, she’s younger than me. It’s just that she can’t accommodate anyone in her heart, and besides, she deserves my respect. Sometimes, it's not necessarily that men and women being together are always with ulterior motives. Xiao Feng and I are like that.”

Tao Su knew he sounded a bit pretentious, but it was true. He didn't have any inappropriate thoughts towards Feng Ling Xi. He would take care of her as Mrs. Lu wished, at least protect her safety. He would do his best.

Lu Nian looked Tao Su up and down, clearly disbelieving.

His sister was the first beauty of the Yuan Dynasty. Although she had given birth to three children, it was not at all apparent. Such an excellent woman, there's no reason why Lu Nian wouldn't look upon her favorably.

"This is what you said, from now on don't like her, or I won't be polite to you."

Lu Nian issued a warning, seeing Tao Su smiling and nodding in agreement, he suddenly felt that he was being too harsh. But for Dugu City, he could only do this.

Lu Nian placed her hand on Tao Su's shoulder and smiled.

"Did you get scared"

Tao Su glanced at him, smiling and saying, "No."

"You're not bad, but it's a shame. All the men around my sister are excellent. If she wasn't already engaged, I'd be happy to let you try."

Lu Nian sighed, "This girl is just like this. If she gets married late, people will talk about her. Besides, the Lu family didn't find her in time, making her suffer a lot. Now all we can do is protect her."

"Got it."

Tao Su was still smiling, he wasn't any different, he also had people he wanted to protect.

"Her husband didn't actually mistreat her, he just hurt her because of some things. I'm telling you this to let you know that her husband won't give up on her, and he will find her."

Tao Su nodded, "The misunderstanding is too deep. If it can be explained clearly, it is still possible to forgive."

Lu Nian nodded, he thought the same way, but Tao Su said again, "If the misunderstanding deepens, over time, a wounded heart will be riddled with holes, and the wounds will be unable to heal. Can Xiao Feng forgive him even if an apology sews them up"

Lu Nian's body stiffened, staring at Tao Su, for a moment she didn't know how to answer his question.

“Xiao Feng hid from him for five years, and it wasn't because of Siyu and Siqi. It was because she was truly heartbroken. If not for Wan’er, she probably wouldn't have come down the mountain at all.” Tao Su said, adding, “Don't misunderstand me, I don't mean anything else. These are all Xiao Feng's words to me, and my understanding of her.”

Lu Nian felt a lump in his throat, looking at Tao Su's calm eyes. Did he truly not like his sister

"If you think Xiaofeng and her husband can truly be together again, then please explain the misunderstanding clearly. Perhaps, the broken mirror can be reunited."

Lu Nian looked at Tao Su, "Do you know something"

"I've said everything I know." Tao Su looked at Lu Nian, with a slight smile. "I just hope that Master Lu won't ever suspect that I have any ill intentions towards Xiaofeng." He had already explained many times these past few days.

"Sorry, I'm worried about her too."

Lu Nian patted Tao Su's shoulder apologetically.

This is the end of a paragraph.

"It's alright, the Lu family will help me clear my name. If you have any questions you want to ask for clarification, I will answer them."

"I've put you in a difficult position."

Lu Nian sighed, “My sister used to have a fiancé too, but she didn’t know at the time. She married Dugu Cheng as his wife. Her fiancé even saved his life. He was also an excellent man.”

Tao Su nodded, "I'm just a common man from the Jianghu. I understand what Lu Shao means."

"No, I'm not talking about your status. I just want to tell you that my sister is devoted to love and has chosen Dugu City as her husband. If she truly doesn't love him in the future and chooses another man, as her older brother, I will support her too."

Tao Su nodded, indicating understanding.

Lu Nian told Tao Su many things about Dugu City and Xiaofeng's past, including their feelings. Tao Su just listened without saying much. He knew that Lu Nian said these things to tell him that Dugu City and Xiaofeng were in love, and Dugu City only had to part ways with Xiaofeng because of his difficult circumstances.

Feng Lingxi had cooked the meal and the maidservants helped set the table. Looking at the full table of dishes, Lu Nian's eyes narrowed into slits with a smile. However, Feng Lingxi didn't react much when she saw Lu Nian arrive.

"Little sister, don't you want me to come here"

Tao Su glanced at them. "Xiao Feng, I'll go call the seniors to eat."

Feng Lingxi responded, turning to face Lu Nian. Her expression grew colder. “The food at the Lu family is better than mine. Why did you come here”

"If I hadn't come, how would I have known you were keeping such a big thing from me You didn't even let me know about the two nephews."

"Don't tell Dugu City."

Feng Lingxi warned, "I don't want him to know."

"Do you think disappearing for five years really meant vanishing into thin air You think I know where you are because my parents told me No, it was the Lu family and people from Tianxiang Lou who found out. Dugu City knew you were back a long time ago, and he even knows about the boy and girl around you. It's just that he doesn't know yet that this child is his."

After Lü Niàn finished speaking, her eyes dimmed.

"Sister, I know you hate him…"

"You're overthinking it. I don't hate him, I just want to stay away from him and live a peaceful life."

Feng Ling said calmly, "You should know that all these years, I hid from you to live my own life. If it wasn't for Wan'er, I wouldn't have come down the mountain."

“Do you want to take Wan'er up the mountain”

Lu Nian looked at Feng Lingxi, watching her obviously angry face. He said solemnly, "You can't take it away. Luo Li already knows about your appearance, and he also knows that Wan'er came here. You can hide easily, but can you hide for a lifetime Some things must be faced and resolved."

"You talk too much."

After years of inner peace, Lu Nian's words stirred up turmoil within him.

"If you truly want to take Wan'er away, you should ask my parents for their permission. If that doesn't work, I can also agree."

Feng Lingxi gave a cold smile, raised her eyes, and her gaze became sharp. "Do you think I came down the mountain for nothing Since I dare to come down, I dare to face it head-on. I don't need you to repeat this in front of me. Besides, don't act as a spokesperson for Dugu Cheng, I'm not interested in his affairs, and I don't want to hear about them."

Lu Nian opened her mouth, meeting Feng Lingxi's cold warning gaze. She sighed helplessly.

It seems that Dugu City wants Xi'er to forgive him, it is probably impossible.

However, they've reached this point, and he bears a great deal of responsibility.bed their hands, tightening her grip. The palace maid cried out in pain and released Feng Ling Xi, retreating to Feng Yu Xi's side, "Your Majesty Empress, Princess Lan..."Mo Huilan raised her hand and...
