Feng Lingxi frowned, not quite understanding what he meant."I've spent nearly ten years in Liangzhou. If I can't even protect myself, then wouldn't that be ten wasted years" Dugu Yu's confidence made...Looking at Xī’s smug expression as the wind and rain lashed down, Fēng Língxī truly couldn’t imagine what her days of imprisoning Luólǐ were like What happened to Luólǐ that day To what extent had she been tortured to become such a shell of herself.
"Did you poison Luo Li I saw him yesterday, and he wasn't doing well."
"He came"
When the wind and rain arrived, Feng Yu's face changed drastically. He grabbed Feng Ling Xi's arm urgently and asked, "Where is he Did you tell him I'm here"
"No, I just went to ask him about my mother. Seeing that he wasn't feeling well, I asked what was wrong. He said it was Li Wu Yan who told Luo Li to poison you, so I came to ask you about this."
"It's Li Wuyan again, they really are inseparable. Such a sickening couple."
"They..."
Feng Lingxi hesitated for a moment, did she overthink it Li Wuyan shouldn't be that kind of person. Even if she jokingly said it back then, it couldn't have really become true.
“It was he who tempted Luoli away. If it wasn't for him constantly pestering Luoli, how could she have no feelings for me Feng Lingxi, besides women, men can also steal your husband. You are right. I did poison Luoli, but he won't die. I just want Luoli to remember that he belongs to me and no one can take him away.”
Feng Yu Xi's eyes were filled with hatred and rage, the satisfaction of revenge.
"He's the father of your child after all, you're being so cruel to him, aren't you afraid he'll kill you"
Feng Ling sighed and let out a breath, "Is it worth it to become like this for one man"
"I'm not worthy, but he is." Feng Yu Xi looked at Feng Ling Xi, and suddenly smiled with a sinister air. That smile made Feng Ling Xi feel uneasy, truly wondering what had twisted Feng Yu Xi's state of mind into such a shape.
"Feng Ling Xi, you saved my daughter, and I'm willing to tell you anything you want to know. But about Luo Li's matter, you better stay out of it. You'll only get hurt if you meddle, understand"
Feng Lingxi retracted her gaze and said coldly, “I didn’t want to interfere. I only understand my patient’s situation. You don’t have to say anything, but every word you speak, I will remember.”
“Do as you please, I don't ask for anything now. All I want is for my daughter to get better. As for everything else, I don't ask for anything more.” Feng Yu Xi walked to Nian Li’s side and knelt down, holding the child’s small hand. Her eyes softened, and she wore a look of tenderness and love.
Feng Lingxi walked out of the General's Mansion, her mood heavy. Looking at the bustling crowds on the street, she looked up and sighed.
"Feng Ling xi ah Feng Ling xi, one's own affairs can't even be managed well, why bother to worry about them"
Feng Lingxi was just about to leave, shaking her head, when a carriage pulled up before her. A man stepped out of the carriage and bowed respectfully to Feng Lingxi. "Princess Shenglan, the Empress Dowager requests your presence. Please accompany me to the palace."
This is Zhang Mama, who serves the Empress Dowager. Feng Lingxi knows that she can avoid the first day of the lunar month, but she cannot avoid the fifteenth day.
Tell your Empress Dowager that I do not wish to enter the palace.
The Empress Dowager said, "She asks you to think it over carefully. If you don't enter the palace today, she will ask for you again tomorrow."
Grandma Zhang's tone carried a hint of coercion. She just waited there, not urging her at all.
Feng Aotiān's carriage returned, and seeing Zhang Mamā and Feng Língxī, he hurried forward.
"Grandma Zhang, what is this..."
“General Zhen Guo, this servant is here on the Empress Dowager's orders to escort Princess Shenglan into the palace. General Zhen Guo, I humbly request your assistance in persuading the princess.”
After Zhang Mamá finished speaking, Feng Aotiān walked to Feng Lingxi's face and lowered his voice, "Why are you here again"
"You go tell Lu Nian that I've entered the palace to see the Empress Dowager, and I'll go with her for a walk."
Since she couldn't avoid it, she went to see what the Empress Dowager wanted.
She's already avoiding her, if she insists on seeing her, then just see her.
"Then be careful yourself."
Feng Aotian reminded, watching Feng Lingxi get into Zhang Mama's carriage. The carriage drove away, and he hurried back to find Lu Nian.
The carriage entered the palace, and Feng Lingxi was directly brought to Ci'an Palace to see the Empress Dowager. After many years apart, Empress Shu had long since lost the shadow of her former self as a concubine. When Feng Lingxi saw her at first glance, she seemed to see the Empress Cen from that year. The majesty between her brows and eyes made Feng Lingxi almost unrecognizable.
"Feng Lingxi pays her respects to the Empress Dowager."
Wind Ling Xi was blessed, her body and spirit were at peace. Looking at the Empress Dowager who stared intently at her, her tone carried a hint of coldness and pride.
"Get up."
Feng Lingxi stood there, and Empress Shu stared at her for a long while before saying, "Zhang Mama, have a seat."
"Princess, please."
Feng Lingxi bowed her thanks and took her seat. The atmosphere in the hall became strange. These people, calling her princess one by one, were truly treating her as a princess from Xi Gu. However, this was also good; it reduced a lot of trouble.
"I wonder what the Empress Dowager summoned me for today"
Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, and Shutai Hou frowned. To ask so directly was in Feng Lingxi's character. After so many years, she hadn't changed at all. Even with the identity of a princess from Xigu Kingdom, she didn't have even a shred of princely demeanor.
"It hasn't been easy for this empress to see you, has it"
"This statement from Empress Shu Tai caused Feng Lingxi's face to change slightly. She explained calmly, "My identity and position have changed now, Your Majesty, please understand."
"Well then, I shall speak plainly."
The Empress Dowager gestured to Zhang Mama to go outside and guard the door, then said to Feng Lingxi, “This empress has summoned you several times these past few days. Now that your status has changed, it’s even more difficult for this empress to see you.”
Feng Lingxi remained silent, only listening, waiting for the Empress Dowager to get to the point.
"The Empress Dowager heard from the city dweller that five years ago, you were the one who initiated the divorce. Is this true"
"Yes."
Wind Lingxi looked at Empress Shu, fearless.
Shutai Empress shot a glance at the mamasan beside her, and the mamasan walked up to Feng Lingxi with an imperial edict in hand. She unfurled it and placed it before Feng Lingxi's face. Feng Lingxi remained silent after reading the contents.
"Since you were the one who took the initiative to leave, you wouldn't be thinking about returning to Cheng'er's side. Now that you are a princess of Xi Gu Country, Cheng'er naturally wouldn't be good enough for you. For both of your sakes, Ai Jia hopes you will sign this."
"Grand Empress Dowager, five years ago when I parted ways with Crown Prince Chen, I was alone, leaving everything behind. Now you write on this paper that I must promise never to reunite with Crown Prince Chen and hand over the child to him for raising. I just want to ask one question, Grand Empress Dowager, is the child you speak of Wan'er"
"If you want to take her away, Wan'er, I won't stop you. After all, the Yao Clan's leader is her master, and she will be going to the Yao Clan in ten weeks. Whether she stays or leaves isn't important. What matters is Siyu and Siqi who are by your side."
Feng Lingxi sarcastically said, "Empress Dowager, Feng Siyu and Feng Siqi are my children with King Chen. They have nothing to do with him. For the past five years, I haven't starved them, and now that I am the princess of Xigu, they will be better off following me."
>, would not dare to barge in."Give us a heads up and say that we need to see you.""Once the Holy Maiden has finished bathing, I shall enter and inform her."Fourteen and fifteen, like door gods, did no...
