they were divorced. How could she, the former daughter-in-law of the Empress Dowager, acknowledge these three children but not recognize Feng Lingxi, her daughter-in-law Wasn't this clearly asking her..."I just went in."
Feng Lingxi lowered the carriage curtains, “Dugu Cheng, tomorrow we still have to enter the palace.”
"Why"
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's eyes, that hint of calculation in them, and didn't know what she was talking about
Of course, it's to go into the palace to admire the snow! Look at the sky, it's overcast and raining continuously. It will definitely snow tomorrow."
"Xier, stop making a fuss."
Dugu Cheng's voice was full of resignation, "You still have the heart to make jokes like this."
I'll tell you tomorrow morning.
Feng Lingxi casually picked up a medical book and started reading. Dugu Cheng frowned, lost in thought.
The next day, Dugu Cheng and Feng Yu Xi entered the palace again. They had entered the palace for two consecutive days, which made Feng Yu Xi restless.
I wanted to intercept her, but I was a step too late. This time, Feng Lingxi only stayed in the palace for less than half an hour before leaving. According to those who saw her, Empress Cen bestowed upon Feng Lingxi a pile of things. When Feng Lingxi left the palace, she couldn't even keep a smile on her face.
For five consecutive days, Feng Lingxi entered the palace every day. Either she would have tea with Empress Cen or dine with her. When she left the palace, she always carried gifts. She could be said to be the most favored person in Empress Cen's eyes.
"Xier, may you return to the palace tomorrow"
Just out of the palace, Du Gu Cheng asked, watching her gradually fading smile, holding her icy hand, his face full of concern, in such cold weather coming out, Xi'er's body how to bear.
"Tomorrow is unnecessary, we await honored guests at home."
Dugu City took her into his arms, "These days have been hard on you."
Feng Lingxi raised her head and looked into Dugu Cheng's eyes, seeing the pain there. She couldn't help but smile.
"Dugu City, I found that apart from saying these things, you have nothing else to say to me. Remember when we first got married, weren't you very playful Now why aren't you being playful anymore"
In Du Gu Cheng's mind, the scene of their wedding day flashed by. In order to retaliate against her for forcefully sleeping with him, she really used every trick in the book. And what was the result She still lost.
"I've already lost to you, I've lost to you my whole life."
Her thin lips curved upwards slightly, the happiness on her face unconcealable.
"How do they speak of my king"
Windling shook her head, and Dugu City looked at her, his eyes smiling with a hint of helplessness. "They said that after I married you, I was afraid of my wife."
"Isn't that right"
Feng Lingxi finished asking, and Dugu City smiled.
"Well, this king acknowledged it in front of them as well. This king is a scaredy-cat when it comes to his wife, so what They don't have the fortune that this king has, they just envy him."
When Feng Lingxi heard this, her heart ached for Dugu Cheng. What mattered was that he wasn't being controlling, she wasn't some shrew after all. Dugu Cheng was just afraid of losing her, afraid she wouldn't stay by his side. That's why he catered to her in everything, doing whatever she wanted, doting on her simply because he loved her.
He snuggled into his embrace. Feng Ling Xi listened to his heartbeat, her eyes slightly moist, but a smile curved her lips.
"Yes, they are just jealous of you. They don't have the good fortune to marry me."
Du Gu Cheng lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead. "Xi'er, promise me, no matter what you do, remember to always prioritize your safety. Don't make this king worry." He truly didn't want to lose her again.
Feng Lingxi hummed softly, burying her face in his arms, but the tears at the corner of her eyes flowed even more fiercely.
As long as she could be with him in this life, what else couldn't she do
Don't worry, Dugu City. For you, and for our future, I will definitely act with caution.
Wind fills the building
Luo Li listened to his subordinates' report, his expression becoming colder and colder. The cup in his hand suddenly shattered with a snap. Everyone around him held their breath, trembling and standing there nervously. The temperature around them seemed to drop twenty degrees.
"You're quite something."
"Master, perhaps we should still..."
Luoli swept a cold glance, the man kneeling on the ground quickly shut his mouth.
"Is there any news about Yao Wan Ying"
"Not yet."
Luoli's eyes turned even colder, "What a bunch of trash."
However, they found that beneath the forbidden zone was not land, but a bottomless water pit.
"That is to say, Yao Wanying is really dead."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes, and the person reporting to him bowed their head in response.
"Keep searching, we must find Yao Wan'ying."
"Master, there's one more thing. The Saintess and Emperor Qingyun have a marriage contract. Should we get rid of Emperor Qingyun"
Luo Li glanced coldly, "She's married now. The engagement between Huangpu Qingyun and her is long gone, there's no need to involve the Xia Dynasty, besides, pass on my decree, and tell Elder Three to come to the capital to see me."
The warmth of the rare winter sun hadn't yet reached the window, when a knock on the door came from outside. "Your Highness," Xiaoli called out, "someone wishes to see you."
"Who is it" Feng Lingxi turned over, instinctively reaching out, but there was no one there. It was no wonder the bed wasn't warm. She opened her eyes and saw that Dugu City had already gotten up and left. Feng Lingxi sat up and yawned, sleepiness still lingering.
"It's parting."
Feng Ling Xi's beautiful eyes lit up, her red lips curled into a slight smile, "You came earlier than expected."
"Xiao Li, come in."
Feng Lingxi got up and dressed. Xiaoli saw that the princess had woken up and hurried in with a cup of hot water.
"Your Highness, Luoli has requested an audience with you. Do you know why he wishes to see you"
Feng Lingxi glanced at Xiao Li, "If you can't hold back your temper, it will naturally come."
These days I've worn her out, but she's finally here.
"By the way, how is Ah Man doing Any improvement"
“Much better, internal injuries are almost healed, and external injuries except for the serious ones are almost healed.”
Feng Lingxi nodded in satisfaction, her external wound medicine seemed to be quite effective.
"Don't let Aman see Luo Li."
"I understand, I've instructed A Man, and he knows."
Feng Lingxi responded and tidied up. Then, she went to the front hall and saw Luoli drinking tea. She walked over.
"Your Highness, good morning."
Luo Li saw Feng Ling Xi coming and greeted him politely.
Wind Ling's red lips curled slightly, her eyes sweeping over the departing crowd. She found his gaze fixed on her, as if he wanted to see through her.
"Lord Luó, why are you here so early this morning Is there something the matter"
Luo Li glanced at Xiao Li and the maidservants in the room, "May I have a word with the Fourth Princess privately"
"Xiao Li, stay here. Everyone else go wait outside."
Feng Lingxi spoke, and soon only the three of them remained in the front hall.
Luoli looked at Xiao Li, "Could she also avoid this"
Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li, her eyes indifferent, "Xiao Li is my personal maid and cannot leave my side for half a step. If Gongzi Luo finds it inconvenient, then just give up."
"Rising to leave, Luoli called out to her, "Why would the Fourth Princess do this"
Feng Ling Xi turned around, watching Luoli get up. "Since that's the case, would you care to move to the garden"
"Don't go out, it's cold."
Feng Lingxi sat down, languidly holding Xiao Li's teacup and taking a sip. Her beautiful eyes lifted, "Lord Luo, is there anything you can't say here Just the three of us, what's there that we can't talk about"won't force you if you don't."Zhao Shi glanced at Feng Ling Xi. She wouldn't force herself, but her granddaughter's life was gone. Now that she was an old woman, she didn't want to protect anyone else...
