Nangong Ying was very sad and realized how stupid she was to actually believe that an emperor could have true feelings!

From then on, she gave up on Emperor Kunming and stayed in her own bedroom, not seeing anyone. She wanted to leave several times, but she couldn't bear to do it when she looked at her son in her arms.

Emperor Kunming thought she was just throwing a tantrum and did not indulge her. He thought she was just an orphan girl in the world, and he was so disappointed that she was not satisfied even after being given the position of queen!

In order to deliberately anger her, Emperor Kunming not only stayed in Changsun's palace every night, but also took some beauties into the harem.

After hearing the news, Nangong Ying lost her last bit of affection for him and wanted to wait until her son grew up a little, hand him over to Zhongli Xiao and then leave.

Because she knew that Changsun Man was cruel and unscrupulous, if her son had no one to protect him, he would have difficulty surviving in this harem full of intrigue and scheming.

Not long after, Beitang Yuan suffered from the Hundred Poisons Heart Corrosion Curse cast upon him. The imperial doctors could not find out what was wrong, so Nangong Ying had no choice but to take Beitang Yuan to Linggun Mountain to find Zhongli Xiao.

Since then, Nangong Ying has never returned to Shengjing.

Emperor Kunming thought she was just angry and believed that she would eventually come to her senses. After all, Beitang Yuan was the crown prince, and she would come back for her son's future.

When Beitang Yuan was three years old, the Nangong family from the Middle World came and wanted to take Nangong Ying away.

Nangong Ying didn't dare let the Nangong family know that she had a son, so she entrusted Beitang Yuan to Zhongli Xiao before leaving.

Two years passed like this. When the news that the prince's fate was predicted by the Taoist priest to be not able to live past the age of sixteen spread, the court officials, mainly from the Changsun family, submitted a memorial to the emperor requesting that Beitang Hong be appointed as the prince.

It was not until this time that Emperor Kunming finally remembered that he had a queen and a son.

He didn't expect Nangong Ying to be so hot-tempered. She wasn't as gentle and virtuous as Zhangsun Shi at all, and was not worthy of being the queen of a country. He wanted to depose her, but was rejected by the queen dowager, and the mother and son even quarreled over it.

Emperor Kunming was very angry, so he went to Linggun Mountain in disguise, wanting to ask Nangong Ying how long she would continue to make trouble.

She thought to herself that as the king of a country, she should go to see her in person and call it a day and go back to the palace with him. If she continued to make trouble, he would really abolish her position as queen and Beitang Yuan's position as crown prince.

However, Nangong Ying had been gone for two years at that time.

When they arrived at Linggun Mountain, Zhongli Xiao told him that Nangong Ying was dead and only left him a letter.

Emperor Kunming looked at the letter in his hand and was stunned, recalling the love they once had.

"She died just like that?" He shook his head in disbelief and questioned Zhong Lixiao, "Nangong Ying is my queen. Why didn't you tell me when something like this happened?"

"So you also know that she is your queen?" Zhong Lixiao was so angry that he punched Emperor Kunming. "You bastard, you are not worthy of her at all."

Emperor Kunming was knocked to the ground and sat there blankly for a long time before he asked where Nangong Ying was buried. He wanted to take her coffin and bury it in the imperial mausoleum.

"Ying'er left behind a will before she died, saying she wanted to divorce you and didn't want to have anything to do with you. Go!" Zhongli Xiao ordered him to leave. "Emperor Kunming, if you still care about Beitang Yuan being your son, you should know how to handle this matter properly."

"Where is Yuan'er? He is my son, I want to take him back." Emperor Kunming said.

"You took him away? Do you want him to die faster?" Zhongli Xiao was even more furious when Beitang Yuan was mentioned. "Yuan'er was cursed by the women in your harem. Without my magic to suppress it, he will die at any time.

You have many women in your harem and many sons. The death of one of them would not be a big deal to you. But Beitang Yuan is now my disciple, Zhongli Xiao. I won't be as cold-blooded and heartless as you and not care about his life or death."

In the end, Emperor Kunming was driven down the mountain by Zhongli Xiao.

After Emperor Kunming returned to Shengjing, he announced the news that Nangong Ying had died of illness and named Zhangsun Man as the successor.

Since Beitang Yuan had Zhongli Xiao as his powerful backer and the Queen Mother intervened, he did not dare to bring up the idea of ​​deposing the Crown Prince again.

After hearing these words, Beitang Yuan and Xie Jinglan finally understood the truth of what happened. They never expected that Emperor Kunming was such a heartless person.

Xie Jinglan felt sorry for Nangong Ying. If it were her turn, she would have left too, but it would have been hard for Beitang Yuan.

"Haha..." Beitang Yuan clenched his fists tightly, veins bulging.

If he had known that the emperor treated his mother like this, what would the life and death of Yuyong Kingdom have to do with him?

"Those things are all in the past." Xie Jinglan knew that he was feeling bad, so she gently placed her hand on the back of his broad hand to comfort him.

"I'm fine." Beitang Yuan shook his head slightly at her and changed the subject: "Master, Madam Xie was abducted to the Middle World by Wei Rufeng and Beitang Hong. We must go and rescue her. Please take us there."

"Lan'er! Wei Rufeng and Beitang Hong deliberately brought your mother out for you to see, and told us to take her to the middle world. Their purpose is to lure you there. If you really go there, it will be very dangerous." Zhongli Xiao's face was solemn.

"Master, don't worry, I will protect Lan'er." Beitang Yuan said.

"My current strength is not weaker than yours. I don't need your protection. I can go by myself." Xie Jinglan knew his good intentions, but the middle world seemed to be more complicated than this Guangyuan. More people were not necessarily a good thing.

"Besides, I don't know how long I'll be gone. How can you, as the Crown Prince of your country, come with me when you're so busy?"

"Now that the world is at peace, I want to go see mother." Beitang Yuan's voice was muffled. A scumbag like his father was not worthy of his mother at all. Since their fate was over, he would never call her mother queen again.

"Master, I just want to go see my mother."

Seeing that he insisted on going, Xie Jinglan stopped talking and looked at Zhong Lixiao.

"If you really want to go, then go back and finish the things at hand. I will activate the teleportation formation to send you there." Zhong Lixiao sighed in his heart: Things in the dark will come eventually.

"Yes, we know!"

After they finished talking, Beitang Yuan took Hu Xiu and He Changsong directly back to Shengjing, while Xie Jinglan took Xie Xue, Xie Yin, Zhongli Xiao and Zhu Yichen back to Linggun Mountain.

After returning to Linggun Mountain, Xie Jinglan met with her family and told them that she wanted to go to the Middle World to save her mother.

After hearing her words, Zong Zhengyi, Xie Wanying and Xie Feng all looked unhappy.

"Lan'er, it's too dangerous for you to go alone. I'll go with you." Zong Zhengyi was really worried about her going alone.

Although he had never been to the Middle World, he learned some things from Zhongli Xiao.

The spiritual energy in the middle world is richer than that in the Guangyuan Continent, and people's cultivation is stronger. The Nascent Soul Realm is considered the top powerhouse in this Guangyuan Continent, but it can only be regarded as middle to lower-level strength there. Lan'er was unfamiliar with the place, and it was so difficult for her to rescue Mei Yingying from Wei Rufeng and the Fu family.
