The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

That day, I noticed that the old man looked at my jade pendant with a very unusual gaze, and he also mentioned that he knew Old Man Gu and was Old Man Gu's savior!

Gu Lingxi had a vague suspicion in her heart! Now that her father had said it himself, it confirmed her guess! But she still felt uneasy! She wondered what the old man had gone through? His face was haggard, and his hair was completely white? He shouldn't be much older than her father! Yet he had become like that!

Seeing that Gu Lingxi remained silent, Gu Fengyuan assumed that his daughter would not be able to accept it for a while!

Sigh! Brother Ye hasn't had it easy these past years! Don't blame him! Back then, he encountered powerful enemies and couldn't protect your mother. The reason he didn't come to take you away was because he didn't want to implicate you!

Gu Lingxi nodded heavily. Her daughter understood! She didn't blame her; she was just having some difficulty accepting it.

Sigh! I know! I don't know how Brother Ye has spent these past ten years trying to avenge your mother! He's become so worn out, I almost didn't recognize him!

Back in the day, Brother Ye was a top-tier handsome man, dashing and dashing! Even Emperor Nangong… was completely infatuated with him! Realizing he almost said something wrong, he quickly stopped himself! Alas! What a pity! What a pity!

Keep this token safe! It's part of your dowry left to you by your own father!

Listening to Old Man Gu recount the story of that drunkard, Gu Lingxi couldn't help but sigh. Although she didn't know what kind of person her biological father was, a man who could care for his deceased wife for decades and who had refrained from seeing his daughter for over a decade for fear of implicating her—such a father couldn't be too bad! Especially since he was also a sugar daddy!

Gu Lingxi accepted the gleaming golden token! The character "Demon" on it was strikingly prominent! The token of the Lord of the Demon Feather Palace? She never expected that her father's dowry would be the entire Demon Feather Palace! She never expected that her father was not only the former city lord of Wuyang City, but also the Lord of the Demon Feather Palace. This disguise was too thick!

I bet Old Man Gu doesn't know what this is!

Where is my dad?

He was so preoccupied with lamenting the passing of spring and autumn that he almost forgot about the important matter! Old Man Gu patted his head in annoyance!

Oops, I almost forgot something important! Your dad went back to prepare your dowry!

Huh? Wasn't it already given? Gu Lingxi shook the golden token! She was puzzled as to why she needed to prepare a dowry. Her wedding with that Prince Li was still a long way off!

Sigh! Your father said that you were betrothed to their adopted son, Ye Weilan, since you were little! He is now the city lord of Wuyang City! As soon as he heard that you were going to marry Prince Li, he immediately objected and said he would go back right away and have his adopted son come and snatch you away!

Gu Lingxi was also shocked after hearing this! What was going on? She was completely overwhelmed! She hadn't even solved one problem yet, and her own father had created another one for her!

What should we do? We can't disobey the Emperor's decree! Why don't you just head back to Wuyang City? Perhaps the Emperor will give Wuyang City some face and let this matter go!

Seeing her father's worried expression, Gu Lingxi was deeply moved. "Dad! Don't worry! I'll handle this. There's always a way! I'm sure I'll come up with a foolproof plan!"

Having a foolproof plan would be ideal! But Prince Li is no pushover, is he? Your father is truly worried about you!

"Father, you probably don't know what this is, do you?" Gu Lingxi asked, shaking the bright orange magic feather token in her hand. She was very curious whether her father knew what it was.

"Isn't this the token your own father gave you? Does it have some great use?" Gu Fengyuan asked, puzzled. Being in the imperial court, he only had a vague understanding of the affairs of the martial world. Brother Ye hadn't told him what the token was for. He genuinely didn't know, assuming it was some kind of token from a pawnshop, money exchange, or property in Wuyang City.

Have you heard of the Demon Feather Palace?

Of course I've heard of it! The Demon Feather Palace has been a household name for over a decade! It holds a top-tier position in the martial arts world today!

"You mean this token belongs to the Demon Feather Palace?" Gu Fengyuan asked in surprise!

To be precise, it is not only the token of the Demon Feather Palace, but also the Palace Master's token of the Demon Feather Palace! Gu Lingxi said slowly!

Gu Fengyuan stared wide-eyed in disbelief! This? Could Brother Ye be the Lord of the Demon Feather Palace? But he quickly understood. With Brother Ye's strength, building a force was not impossible! The Demon Feather Palace was neither entirely righteous nor entirely evil; they weren't exactly benevolent, but they weren't utterly despicable either! Their strength was among the top in the entire martial arts world!

With this force protecting him, Gu Fengyuan could finally feel a little more at ease!

"That's wonderful! It seems Brother Ye has taken care of everything for you long ago! Now I can rest assured! You've grown up and have your own ideas now, so just do what you've decided! I and this family will always support you!" Gu Fengyuan stroked his beard with satisfaction. With Brother Ye protecting Xi'er, he finally felt more at ease.

Oh! Next month is His Majesty's 60th birthday, and all the young ladies need to prepare one or two impressive talents! You should stay home and prepare well, and don't go out and have fun, understand?

"Oh! I know, Dad!" Gu Lingxi playfully stuck out her tongue! The Emperor's birthday banquet, sigh! To be honest, she really didn't want to go! Going shopping would be much more carefree and enjoyable!

Leng Feng stared in disbelief at the bright orange Demon Feather Token in Gu Lingxi's hand. "Miss, is my mouth blessed? Is this real? This token can't be fake, can it?"

Gu Lingxi said irritably, "Then you try it!"

The cold wind really didn't hold back, it opened its mouth and took a bite! Ouch! My tooth! Really?

Seeing Leng Feng's dazed look, Gu Lingxi and Leng Yu couldn't help but laugh!

Whether it's true or not, we'll find out tomorrow when we go to the Demon Feather Palace branch! She's still really looking forward to the dowry her father left her! That old man is quite nice to her; next time she sees him, she'll definitely give him a few more jars of wine!

So now Miss is the Lord of the Demon Feather Palace?

The cold wind and rain looked at their young lady with shock and curiosity!

Gu Lingxi didn't hide anything from them! I'm sure you've all heard the rumors about my background!

"Yes!" Leng Feng and Leng Yu nodded in unison. Previously, the Third Miss Gu Yuting had spread this news throughout the entire mansion! But the General suppressed it, and it was dropped! They all treated it as just a rumor! After all, the Madam really did give birth to a daughter back then!

It's true! The old drunkard who gave me the token must be my biological father! Regardless of whether I'm the general's biological daughter or not, just remember that the Gu family will always be my home, Gu Lingxi's home! My father, my mother, and my brother will always be my family! No matter what happens in the future, protect them first, understand?

Leng Feng and Leng Yu solemnly promised Gu Lingxi, "Miss, you treat us like brothers, and the General's Mansion has been incredibly kind to us! We will do everything in our power to protect you and those you wish to protect! We have no ulterior motives!"

Gu Lingxi was also generous to her loyal subordinates, taking out various bottles and jars of rare tonics purified by Ah Li from her spatial storage! She handed them to the two of them! "These are some nourishing pills that should also help your Xuan power! Take them!"

The two of them accepted the gift without any hesitation, showering Gu Lingxi with profuse thanks. "Thank you! Miss, for your generous gift!"

Gu Lingxi couldn't bear to look at his fawning manner!
