Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

Long Wu spoke one sentence after another, and the emperor burst into tears.

He owned a vast empire, but in the end he lost the person who stood shoulder to shoulder with him.

Until the last moment, she left with a smile on her face.

The emperor once thought that the child she gave birth to at the cost of her life was protected by him as a treasure.

Perhaps it was because he was immersed in the sorrow of losing Long Wu and buried her that month that Mu Nanqi was replaced by someone else.

But he saw nothing.

His eyes were filled with endless pain. "Your mother is very good. She doesn't like to call herself 'this palace', so I don't want you to call her 'mother queen' either."

After hearing this, Mu Nanqi's face was frosty.

His trip tonight was not in vain. He had already gotten everything he wanted and knew that he was once the child that was expected to be born.

This is enough.

He had no intention of saying any more words to the emperor, so he bowed and prepared to leave.

Just as he was about to turn around, the emperor suddenly said something mysterious and shocking: "Nan Qi, she is not dead. The abbot of Wanfo Temple said that there are many souls from other worlds in the myriad worlds. She said she went home, probably to her home in another world. If I persist in my obsession and use the blood of my closest relatives to cast a summoning array, I will have a chance to bring her back here."

The emperor's tone was a little hurried. "In the past, I have tried using Mu Qinghan's blood countless times, but it has never succeeded. It turns out that he is a fake. How could he succeed? Nan Qi, you are different. You can do it."

His eyes sparkled with excitement, "You can definitely make her come back to me."

Mu Nanqi's lips were full of sarcasm, breaking his beautiful fantasy, "Why do you want her to come back?"

"Ok?"

The emperor looked confused, as if he had not expected him to ask this.

Mu Nanqi continued, "She must be extremely disappointed with this place, so she chose to leave. She gave so much to you but couldn't get your undivided attention. Who are you trying to show off your affection for now?"

The emperor's face was filled with embarrassment after being exposed. "But aren't all men like this? Who doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Which emperor doesn't have three thousand beauties in his harem? Could it be that she is so cruel to abandon us father and son just because of such a small matter?! What gives her the right to be so unconventional?"

So he hated women with such independent thoughts, like Xin Wanyun and Song Zhi!

It's just so disgusting!

Women like this should be killed before they mature.

Mu Nanqi looked at his expression and said word by word, "So you are unwilling to accept this, right? Why do others have so many women around them, but she is the only one by your side?"

"Why do people respect and trust her more than you? You are the emperor, and she is just a woman, right? That's why you keep testing her limits, trying to make her become a wife and mother who respects you, and trying to confine her to the harem so that no one can see her anymore."

"You covered Mingzhu with a black veil, preventing her from shining. You did so much, but you didn't expect that she had given up on you the moment she first tried to express her love for you. You naively thought you were taming her."

The emperor looked a little ashamed when the most selfish and dark part of his heart was exposed.

These are exactly what he has never dared to face.

His breathing was a little disordered, and his mind went blank for a moment, not knowing what to say.

After a long time, he finally calmed down.

The emperor smiled bitterly and surprisingly did not refute.

"You're right. This is all caused by my greed and jealousy. She could have been with me, but I gave up this opportunity. I deserve it, but..."

He changed the subject, "I have a chance to start over with her now!"

He looked at Mu Nanqi eagerly, "Shall we go to Wanfo Temple together to bring your mother back?"

In the emperor's opinion, Mu Nanqi would never refuse this request.

After all, that was his mother, someone he had never seen since he was born.

But Mu Nanqi just uttered one word coldly, "No."

"What did you say?!"

The emperor suspected he had misheard, and his eyes were filled with astonishment. "Don't you want to be loved by your mother?"

"Do not want to."

His voice was clear and calm. "The time when I needed my mother the most has passed. I can live a good life now. You don't have to trick me into bringing her back and imprisoning her by your side. She is free."

Mu Nanqi said this solemnly, not moved by it.

"But she's your mother!"

"We haven't had any contact for a single day. Even my mother doesn't have as deep a relationship with me as you think."

The emperor walked up to Mu Nanqi and said, "Don't you blame her? If she hadn't insisted on wanting those unrealistic things and abandoned us, how could you have been replaced and suffered so many years?"

Mu Nanqi said: "First of all, I will only blame the culprit. I don't want her to live a life she doesn't want here just for me. It's good that she left."

"Secondly, that's not unrealistic. In my lifetime, I will only have one wife, Azhi."

"Nan Qi!"

The emperor was completely confused. "How could any emperor have only one woman in his life? Don't encourage their evil ways."

"I'm happy to help, just leave me alone."

Mu Nanqi looked at the emperor coldly.

The emperor took two steps back in sorrow, "Nan Qi, don't be stubborn. Only I can give you everything you want. As long as the world is yours, you won't be able to take down a little Song Zhi."

Mu Nanqi showed no mercy, "This world is yours, have you captured my mother?"

In one sentence, the emperor was speechless.

He knew that he couldn't shake Mu Nanqi's mind, so he stopped saying things that would make him unhappy.

He quickly said, "I won't force you. If you really want to marry into my family, that's fine, but on the wedding day..."

"It's getting late, Your Majesty, please go to bed early. I will take my leave."

Guessing what the emperor was about to say, Mu Nanqi interrupted him without giving him a chance to finish.

After saying this, he respectfully left the hall without giving the emperor a chance to stay.

Of course he could guess what the emperor wanted to say, but there was no need.

The injuries he had suffered could not be erased, and the scars left in the Heavenly Prison had not disappeared to this day. The deep and shallow scars showed how much the emperor had wanted him dead.

This is just the surface.

The invisible wounds in the heart are even more difficult to heal.

Now it’s good enough that we don’t interfere with each other.

Looking at Mu Nanqi's back, the emperor wanted to send someone to chase him, but after thinking about it, he forced himself to do nothing and watched him walk away.

They've broken the ice tonight, which is a great start.

More haste, less speed. He will take it step by step and eventually rebuild the relationship between father and son.

Long Wu must also hope that the father and son can live in harmony.
