The Rising Phoenix-Chapter 122: Convince Her To Break Off The Engagement With The Third Prince

Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Convince Her To Break Off The Engagement With The Third Prince

"I don’t know about that." Bai Guowei quickly shocked his head.

"Yes. How could we know about that? It is not like we have anything to do with that." Han Yunru also quickly denied it.

Bai Xifeng looked at them with an intense stare. Their reaction seemed to indicate something. Well, she was sure if she pressed the topic right now, they would not tell them.

"Is there anything else that you want to say to me?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"No." Bai Guowei shook his head.

"Nothing else." Han Yunru was also doing the same.

"Then, I will go and continue sleeping." Bai Xifeng stood up and wanted to walk to her room to continue her sleep.

"It is already morning. Why do you still want to sleep?" Han Yunru commented?

"Why do you care? It has nothing to do with you." Bai Xifeng said.

"If you are my daughter, I will discipline you." Han Yunru replied.

"If I am your daughter, I am going to be miserable." Bai Xifeng responded.

"You!!!" Han Yunru wanted to get mad.

"Xiao Li, show our guest the door." Bai Xifeng shouted.

"No need. I will leave. Who wants to be in this shabby courtyard anymore?" Han Yunru stood up and walked to the entrance.

Bai Guowei also followed his wife.

Bai Xifeng entered her room and threw herself onto her bed. One minute passed and Bai Xifeng already fell asleep.

....

Bai Xifeng started to teach Yu Xiaohui and Xiaoqing about the medicine and poison. Since they were from family of pharmacist, their learning ability about the herbs were excellent.

Yu Nianzu and Xiao Li had been given a book about the skill that they wanted to learn. They would read book first. They needed to understand the fundamental of the skill that they wanted to learn before learning the practical skills.

Bai Xifeng asked Xiao Li to accompany her there. When Xiao Li asked about the place that Bai Xifeng wanting Xiao Li to follow her, Xiao Li was surprised.

Xiao Li never went to the Palace before. She was a little bit scary.

"Don’t worry too much. It is not a haunted house." Bai Xifeng commented when she saw her maid feeling scared about going to the Palace.

"Young Miss, I prefer haunted house." Xiao Li stated.

Even the three siblings agreed with that. They rather spend time in the haunted house compared to Palace. If they were in the haunted house, they would only be harassed by the ghost who wanted to scare them.

However if they were in the Palace, they would need to worry about their head. If they made something wrong, they might lose their head.

Bai Xifeng would not understand the fear since she was from the different timeline. She was from the time where everyone was equal.

Meanwhile, they were in the time where everyone’s worth was measured by birth. If someone born in the royal and noble family, he would also be a royal or noble. They would have the servants to take care of their needs.

It would be different for someone who born in the normal or peasant family. They needed to get everything ready by themselves. They also needed to respect the royal or noble if the royal and noble could kill them.

"We are going to the Palace in the afternoon. I wonder if you would prepare lunch for us." Bai Xifeng said.

She could still thinking about lunch. She already ate the Palace food. It was quite delicious.

"Young Miss, what’s about your outfit?" Xiao Li asked.

"Huh? What outfit?" Bai Xifeng did not understand.

"We need to get a new outfit to see your majesty." Xiao Li stated.

"No need for that. It is waste of money and time." Bai Xifeng did not want to waste her money on something like that.

"But..." Xiao Li wanted to speak something.

"It is final. I will just wear the outfit that I already have. No need to buy the new outfit just because I need to meet the emperor. It is not like I want to impress that emperor and want his attention. I don’t want to be his new wife. Hell no!" Bai Xifeng shook her head.

...

Bai Xifeng wore a normal dress walking to the main entrance where Bai Guowei was waiting for her in the carriage.

Bai Guowei flinched his eyes when he saw the dress on Bai Xifeng’s body.

"Why are you not dress up a little bit?" Bai Guowei asked.

"For what?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"You are going to go and see His Majesty. You need to look the best." Bai Guowei stated.

"Why should I do that? It is not like I want to see my boyfriend." Bai Xifeng rolled her eyes.

"What? What is boy... boyfriend?" Bai Guowei did not understand the word.

"Forget it. I will wear this outfit. I don’t want to change. If I need to change, it is better for me not to go." Bai Xifeng was about to get off the carriage.

"No. His majesty wants to see and talk to you. It is important." Bai Guowei stopped Bai Xifeng. "Let’s move."

Seeing Bai Guowei’s reaction, it seemed the emperor really wanted to see her. Bai Guowei might be in trouble if he did not bring her out.

Bai Xifeng became interested knowing this situation.

While on the road, Bai Xifeng did not talk to his uncle at all. She only talked to Xiao Li. Xiao Li awkwardly replied to her young miss.

They arrived at the Palace. The Palace guards stopped the carriage and asked their purpose of coming to the Palace.

Bai Guowei explained the situation to the Palace guards about their reason for coming to the Palace.

The Palace guards were surprised when they heard that this young miss was being invited to the emperor himself. The Palace guard immediately allowed them to enter the Palace.

No carriage allow to enter the Palace. So, they needed to walk. Bai Xifeng complained.

They arrived at the main hall. They entered the main hall after receiving permission from the eunuch outside.

Bai Guowei and Bai Xifeng entered the main hall. Xiao Li also entered the main hall but she also stood up at the corner of the main hall.

In the main hall, ahead there was a throne. The emperor was sitting on the throne.

Bai Guowei kneeled down and paid his respect to the emperor.

Bai Xifeng was just standing up and doing nothing. She did not want to do the same as Bai GuoweI. She did not think much about the emperor.

"Why are you not kneel down?" The emperor asked.

Bai Guowei was shocked seeing Bai Xifeng just stand there doing nothing. He thought Bai Xifeng would follow his action.

"Reply to Your Majesty, are you forget that I have a decree that allow me not to kneel down to the royal family. That is including you, Your. Majesty." Bai Xifeng said.

"Oh, I forget." Liu Man said. He then looked at Bai Guowei. "Bai Guowei, you can leave now. Thank you for bringing Bai Xifeng here."

Bai Guowei was shocked when the emperor asked him to get out. He thought he could stay here to hear what the emperor wanted to say to Bai Xifeng.

However, he could not do something except for going out.

Bai Xifeng looked up at the emperor. She wanted to finish whatever matter here and left.

"Bai Xifeng, to be honest, I am regret asking you to marry my third son. He is not suitable for you." Liu Man started.

"It is suitable. Very suitable." Bai Xifeng cut the emperor’s word.

"He is an idiot. He could not help you." Liu Man mocked his own son.

"Yeah. So what?" Bai Xifeng said.

"With your wonderful talent, you better off with other prince." Liu Man said.

Bai Xifeng already understood what the emperor wanted to do. He wanted to pair Bai Xifeng to his other sons. The third Prince was an idiot. So, he was not suitable to her who had excellent talent in the cultivation.

The crown Prince must whisper something to the emperor. The crown prince did tell her that he would persuade his imperial father to break off the engagement with the third Prince.

However, the royal family did not want to embarassed themselves to write the same decree to Bai Xifeng. They wanted Bai Xifeng to give up the engagement by herself.
