This man was slender and handsome, as if he was not a real person. He had sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes above his tall nose, his thin lips were slightly pursed, and there was an invisible expression on his face.
Qingwei didn't know whether this person was an enemy or a friend, so she subconsciously pushed Ling Feng behind her.
If they find her at this time, either Ling Wei's remnants are coming to hunt down the mother and son, or the news of Ling Wei's death is false!
Frowning, she looked cautiously at the tall, tall man standing there. Qingwei thought that the person who brought the news often helped the mother and son, so it was impossible to lie to them.
Just as Qingwei was about to ask, the man spoke.
"Are you the princess of Lingbo?"
Qingwei looked at the man more cautiously and said coldly: "The Ling family has been destroyed a long time ago. Who are you?"
Obviously feeling that the man was startled, he lowered his head and said: "I came back late. I am Ling Bo's friend. My name is Chen Xuan."
"Friend...Chen Xuan..." Qingwei murmured in a low voice.
Ling Bo's best friend Chen Xuan, on their wedding night, Ling Bo still regretted that his friend had gone to another world because of an irresistible mission and could not attend their wedding ceremony.
For the past two or three years, Ling Bo was worried about Chen Xuan's safety every day, but every time he sent the space paper crane to Chen Xuan, he would not receive a response. Ling Bo also knew that Chen Xuan was busy and would naturally come back when the task was completed.
.
After marrying Ling Bo, what Ling Bo and Qingwei talked about most was the interesting things between him and his friend.
Even on the day Ling Bo usurped the throne, Ling Bo told Qingwei that when Chen Xuan came back, he must show him how virtuous his wife was and how smart his son was.
Hot tears fell from the corners of his eyes and fell on Ling Feng's hand. Ling Feng looked at his mother who had dropped her guard and was crying, and held her mother's hand tighter.
That was the first time Ling Feng met Chen Xuan.
Carefully and cautiously, curious eyes kept wandering around Chen Xuan's body.
Chen Xuan wanted to comfort Qingwei, but men and women were not close to each other, so he could only extend his hand to Ling Feng.
"Are you Ling Feng?"
A nice voice came, Ling Feng nodded, and grandma hummed.
Chen Xuan smiled bitterly, touched Ling Feng's head and said, "My godfather is late, I'm sorry."
A series of tasks kept him very busy. Occasionally, he received the space paper crane from Lingbo and listened to Lingbo's report on his progress.
"Brother Xuan, Qingwei agreed to my proposal, I'm so happy!
"
"Brother Xuan, Qingwei and I have set an auspicious date. It will be the 6th of next month. Are you free to come back?"
"Brother Xuan, I'm getting married today. It's a pity that you can't come to attend, but don't worry, I've reserved a spot for you and put a piece of your favorite water coral on it. Just treat it like you're here!
Also, I left a jar of the wedding wine for you. It won’t be too late for us to drink it when you come back!
"
"Brother Xuan, Qingwei is pregnant, I'm going to be a father!
You have been alone for so many years, and it’s time to find a partner. My child will be born in the spring next year. Don’t be too envious. We agreed that if I have a child, he will be my child’s godfather.”
"Brother Xuan!
Qingwei gave birth to a big fat boy!
My son, your godson, is so fat!
When will you come back for a hug? You must take good care of yourself outside."
...
Ling Bo would share the trivial matters and pleasures of life with Chen Xuan. Once Ling Feng could speak, Ling Bo would teach Ling Feng to call "godfather" to Chen Xuan when he saw the thousand paper cranes.
The last time it was transmitted to the Space Paper Crane was on an autumn day two and a half years ago, when Chen Xuan had just completed half of his mission.
Ling Bo and Chen Xuan said that his father was about to die, and the succession ceremony would be held soon. However, he felt that he was not suitable to be a king, so he wanted to give up the throne to his brother Ling Wei.
I want to live a lifetime of leisure with my wife and children.
Loving parents, a kind wife and a lovely son, life does not need to be too rich, just happiness.
Moreover, Ling Bo felt that Ling Wei was more suitable to be king than himself. He had already discussed with the old king and planned to give up the throne to Ling Wei during the succession ceremony and give him a surprise.
Chen Xuan happened to be free from Ling Bo's letter that time, so he replied to him. Chen Xuan said that he had heard all his letters, but the work was very busy, so he would be careful and asked Ling Bo to put the wine away and drink together when he came back.
That was the last time Chen Xuan received a message from Ling Bo. After that, Chen Xuan was too busy and didn't notice that Ling Bo didn't send him another letter. When he suddenly remembered, it was when he had just finished the mission.
I always felt stuck in my heart, but I also thought that Ling Bo might be living happily with his wife and children and had no time to write him a letter.
Returning to the palace without stopping, everything was as usual, but everything seemed to have changed.
The originally warm and lively palace now felt cold to Chen Xuan for some reason.
Chen Xuan stood in the main hall and looked at the man sitting on the dragon chair. His original smile of joy disappeared, and his handsome face looked like frost.
Ignoring the circle of soldiers and generals surrounding him with weapons, he asked coldly: "Who are you?"
