Chapter 315: Divorce

Prince Nanping was suspicious and wanted to ask questions, but when he looked up, he saw that the maid had quickly left on horseback.

Thinking of something, Prince Nanping turned around and asked Xie Lan tentatively, "But does the eldest prince have a way to help you stop vomiting?"

Xie Lan knew that the matter could not be concealed, so he could only nod to King Nanping.

Prince Nanping frowned. His daughter was in so much pain that there were some questions he shouldn't have asked right now.

But he tried to hold back, but finally couldn't hold back any more, "The baby in your belly is... the eldest prince's?"

"Yes."

Prince Nanping felt his head buzzing and a surge of anger rushed to his forehead. He subconsciously wanted to slap the small coffee table in front of him.

But just as he raised his hand, he suddenly realized that the person sitting in front of him was his daughter, whom he had just met. If he slapped her, what if she was scared? Wouldn't that make her afraid of him?

Prince Nanping was filled with rage. He was angry, but not at Xie Lan. He was angry at Xie Changting, and even more angry at himself!
If he had found out the whereabouts of his wife and daughter earlier, or if he had been more cautious and not been shot by the enemy and fell unconscious, Han would not have risked going to Beijing. He would not have been chased and fell off a cliff, lost his memory, and was tricked back home by Xie Changting.

If nothing had happened to him, his daughter would definitely not have been deceived by that kid Xiao Jin and lost her virginity before getting married, and even got pregnant with his child.

The more Prince Nanping thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more guilty he felt towards his daughter. Seeing her in so much pain, he felt so distressed for her that he couldn't bear to say a word of blame to her.

After asking the accompanying armored guards, he knew that Xiao Jin had gone to the palace after leaving, so he immediately ordered the driver, "Go to the palace immediately."

His daughter was in so much pain, the most urgent thing was to help her stop vomiting, and other things could be put aside.

Xie Lan was vomiting uncomfortably, but she didn't stop it. She originally thought that after Xiao Jin gave her spiritual energy last time, she would stop vomiting. Unexpectedly, after only a few days, she started vomiting again.

Fortunately, Xiao Jin had just left and Tiechui caught up with him at the fastest speed.

Upon learning that Xie Lan had vomited, Xiao Jin turned back without saying a word.

The coachman saw the eldest prince riding towards him from afar and quickly stopped the carriage.

Xiao Jin stopped his horse, quickly dismounted, and hurried to the carriage. He was about to greet King Nanping, but before he could open his mouth, King Nanping had already reached out and opened the curtain, "Get in."

Xiao Jin heard the hint of anger in King Nanping's tone and guessed that he might have known that Xie Lan was pregnant.

He was nervous, but when he heard Xie Lan vomiting, he didn't have time to think about it. He pursed his lips and quickly got into the car.

"Greetings, Your Highness." Xiao Jin hurriedly bowed to Prince Nanping. Noticing Xie Lan's pale face, he quickly grasped her wrist and transferred the spiritual energy in his body to her quickly.

Although the King of Nanping had a lot to say, nothing was more important than his daughter's health at the moment. As soon as Xiao Jin came up, he shook Xie Lan's hand in front of him.

His face darkened and he was about to speak when he saw Xie Lan suddenly stop vomiting.

Prince Nanping was delighted, "My daughter, are you okay? Are you still feeling unwell? I'd like to ask the military doctor to come and check your pulse, okay?"

Xie Lan was touched when she saw that he knew she was pregnant before marriage, and not only did he not blame her, but he also looked worried.

He quickly gave Xiao Jin a look, signaling him to let go.

"Don't worry, father. I'm fine. No need to bother the military doctor." Prince Nanping looked at her carefully and saw that her complexion was obviously better than before. He breathed a sigh of relief and said gently, "It's good that you are not uncomfortable. You should rest well."

When he turned to face Xiao Jin, the King of Nanping no longer had any gentleness in his eyes. There was only dissatisfaction in his eyes. "Come with me."

Xie Lan could tell something was wrong with Prince Nanping's voice, and knew without even thinking what he wanted to do with Xiao Jin.

"Father, the eldest prince is not to blame for the child. The reason I got pregnant was because Xie Donghai and Xie Dahe sold me to Lei Tangzhu of the Beast Gang for money.

Fortunately, the eldest prince saved me, but Hall Master Lei had drugged me at the time. There was no antidote in the wilderness, and there was no time to find a doctor.

I would have exploded and died, but I asked the eldest prince to help me detoxify, which saved my life."

Seeing Xiao Jin was about to speak, Xie Lan did not give him a chance and spoke to King Nanping first, "My father just asked me if I really wanted to marry the eldest prince.

It was I who nodded and agreed to the marriage, and then the eldest prince went to ask the emperor to grant the marriage.

I originally had a special fate and would not live past the age of marriage. It was the eldest prince who passed on his own merits and spiritual energy to me, which saved my life."

Xiao Jin didn't expect Xie Lan to defend him so much in front of King Nanping. Although he was happy in his heart, no matter what the reason was, he and Xie Lan had performed the Zhougong ceremony before they were married. No matter how you look at it, he was wrong.

"Your Majesty, I know about what happened with Xie Lan. Even if there is a reason, I cannot escape the blame. But please rest assured, Your Majesty, I promise to be responsible for her and the child to the end.

I love Xie Lan, and I swear that in this life, I will be with Xie Lan forever, without taking concubines or having a concubine. If I break this oath, I will die a miserable death!

Please, Your Majesty, grant me and Xie Lan’s marriage!”

Although the King of Nanping was still angry with Xiao Jin, he could not be blamed entirely for the child's matter. If he had not saved Xie Lan, he might not even know that he had a daughter, and she would have died.

Prince Nanping was not a rigid and pedantic person. In his heart, nothing was more important than his daughter's life.

Since his daughter loves the eldest prince, he doesn't want to break them up. However, thinking of the oath Xiao Jin just made, his brows are still furrowed. "You are a prince now. Given your status, do you think the emperor will allow you not to take concubines or concubines?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. My mother left a will before she died. I have full authority over my marriage. Even the Emperor cannot force me to do something I don't want to do."

Prince Nanping still frowned, "That being said, you are the only adult prince left now, and the emperor will definitely make you the crown prince.

There has never been an emperor in all dynasties who had only one woman.

Even if the emperor doesn't say anything, the court officials will force you to take concubines and expand the royal family."

Xiao Jin did not want the throne. If it were not for asking the emperor to grant him a marriage, he would not even want to return to his ancestral home.

Moreover, based on his understanding of his junior sister, she would certainly not be willing to be trapped within the small square walls of the harem for her entire life.

Sure enough, before he could say anything, Xie Lan had already said, "Father, don't worry. If the eldest prince breaks his promise and wants to marry another woman, I can just divorce him.

It just so happens that I have longed to go to the south, and I can move there with my father. I heard that the climate there is pleasant and it is a good place to retire.”

The King of Nanping had an idea and thought it was a good one. He was worried that he had no son to inherit his throne.

If his daughter really divorced her husband, he could find a son-in-law for her and have a few more children. In this way, he would not have to worry about there being no one to inherit his throne.
