as the Fourth Princess Consort.""Don't forget, you are the Holy Lord of the Yao Clan. I don't want to come find you again."Luo Li smiled at Feng Lingxi and said, “Otherwise, next time we meet, you'll..."Shadow Eight will handle this. Leave the rest to Luo Li, he'll figure it out."

This heart is merciless, she didn't intend to kill her, but she repeatedly deceived others too much, leaving no room for such a scourge.

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's eyes filled with ruthlessness, his own gaze dimmed.

"Xier just scared this king, never seen such ferocity from you before, has it been these few years..."

Dugu Cheng hesitated for a moment, "I'm sorry you had to suffer."

“Who in their life hasn't suffered You are no different. Besides, this woman once cut off Yu Mo's finger with her own heart. Back then, Lu Li stopped her, and now she wants to kill you both again. Such a menace, if we don't kill her this time, when will we”

That's true, but you're being a bit reckless. If she finds out, you're dead.

Dugu City's heart was hanging by a thread. If it weren't for Xin Shui's lofty pride, Xi Er probably wouldn't have killed her.

"Aren't all the strong ones arrogant A woman like Xinshui definitely wouldn't see me as a rival, and she would definitely be less guarded against me than you. I might be taking advantage of her weakness, but there's no other way. I can't beat her fair and square. In this life-or-death situation, I can't afford to be stubborn."

"Don't ever do that again."

Dugu Cheng's worried reminder, he knew that Xi'er was decisive this time, not to mention him, even Luo Li probably didn't expect Feng Lingxi to suddenly strike and kill Xinshui, and the speed was so fast that they were all astonished.

Perhaps Xinshui would never understand how Fenglingxi killed her, even until the day she died.

"Go to sleep, I'm so tired."

Feng Lingxi didn't want to listen to Dugu City talking about her, so she hurriedly went to sleep. Her stomach grumbled again, and Dugu City glanced at her, "Eat something first and then sleep, or you won't sleep well."

"With dawn approaching, if I ate and slept, what would they think of me"

And Dugu City had spent a sleepless night. If Lu Nian knew this, she wouldn't have thought they did anything last night. But she was really tired and hungry.

"Are you hungry"

Feng Lingxi nodded, Dugu Cheng asked again, "Is it tiring"

Feng Lingxi nodded again, and Dugu City took her hand and walked out. "Come on, the kitchen is already up, have something to eat and then go to sleep. What they think is their business, you can't stop it anyway."

Wind Ling Xi thought about it, she didn't need to be so serious. Besides, Du Gu Cheng had slept with many people already, what was the point of dwelling on this She wasn't an 18-year-old girl anymore. Thinking this way, she confidently followed Du Gu Cheng to the kitchen to find something to eat.

Having eaten and drunk my fill, Feng Lingxi was no longer sleepy. However, she began to worry again.

"I wonder if Wan'er and the others have arrived yet. I don't even know what the children are thinking this whole night, missing me. " She sighed, "Thinking of this, Siyu and Siqi have never been separated from me before, I'm so afraid something might happen to them on the road."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty has arranged everything properly, nothing will happen. Wait until night when Xi returns, Your Majesty will tell you. You should go to sleep first."

"Aren't you sleeping" Feng Lingxi asked, then regretted it immediately. Seeing Dugu City smiling, she hurriedly explained, "I mean, you haven't slept all night either."

Dugu City glanced at the time, "This king isn't sleepy, go ahead. If there's news, this king will call you."

Feng Lingxi readily entered the house and rested upon hearing the call. In her sleep, she was unaware of how many things had transpired.

Luo Li and Li Wu Yan rested for a few hours, and they had already recovered to their usual selves. They had to admit that Feng Ling Xi's blood really worked well. Although Luo Li's poison hadn't been fully cured yet, it had already shocked him.

As promised yesterday, Li Wu Yan and Luo Li entered the palace, and coincidentally, Du Gu Cheng was also summoned by the Empress Dowager to the palace.

"See the Empress Dowager."

Du Gucheng paid his respects and entered the palace. He then learned that war had come to report, and in addition to Linxi County, several other border cities had been attacked by various countries. One city had even already fallen. When this news reached the palace, the Empress Dowager almost fainted.

"Empress Dowager, Luo Li and Li Wu Yan have arrived."

As soon as Dugu City arrived, Luo Li and Li Wu Yan came. The Empress looked at Dugu City, “You should step back first.”

"Yes."

Dugu City was taken down. At the palace gate, he saw Luo Li and Li Wu Yan. They each glanced at each other, but neither spoke a word.

"Prince Chen."

When no one was around, Zhang Gonggong, who served Emperor Yuan Zhao, hurried to Dugu City's side and said, "Your Highness Prince Chen, please go see the Emperor."

Dugu City hesitated, the Empress Dowager told him not to wander around here. If she knew he went to see Emperor Yuanshao, if the Empress Dowager found out, she would probably find it difficult even to leave the palace today.

"Your Highness Prince Chen, please, if you don't go, the Emperor might truly be gone."

Zhang Gonggong was about to kneel down, and Dugu City hurriedly said, "Lead the way."

After all, it was the emperor's hard-won kingdom, and he didn't want his father's empire to be ruined by the empress dowager.

"My Prince, I apologize for the inconvenience."

Zhang Gonggong took Dugu Cheng to exchange for a set of young eunuch's clothes, which allowed him to bring Dugu Cheng into Emperor Yuan Zhao's bedroom. After entering, Dugu Cheng saw Emperor Yuan Zhao lying on the bed. He was awake but his face was very pale and he was seriously ill.

"Your Majesty."

Zhang Gonggong stepped forward and called out, Emperor Yuan Zhao responded with a weak "um."

The King of Chen has arrived.

Although Zhang Gonggong’s voice was soft, Emperor Yuanzhao heard it clearly. A pair of dim eyes suddenly lit up, and Dugucheng hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down. "Your Majesty, I am late."

What exactly does the Empress Dowager want They're all the Emperor's sons. Emperor Yuan Zhao never mistreated her, so why would she hurt him like this Looking at him now, Du Gu Cheng only felt a terrifying strangeness towards the Empress Dowager.

Emperor Yuan Zhao trembled and reached out to grab Dugu Cheng's hand, tears welling up in his eyes. This sight made Dugu Cheng's heart ache. What had he gone through to become like this

"Hurry..."

Emperor Yuan Zhao looked at Zhang Gonggong, trembling as he opened his mouth. Only to see Zhang Gonggong hurriedly getting up and walking to the emperor's bed, taking out a delicate box and handing it to Dugu Cheng.

"This is the soldier's tiger talisman, keep it safe."

Emperor Yuan Zhao trembled, his voice a whisper, "Protect... protect, Father's empire."

Dugu Cheng heard this, enduring the pain in his heart, he nodded. "Your Majesty rest assured, your servant will do his utmost."

"Hurry... run."

Mr. Zhang hurriedly pulled Dugu City up, lowering his voice and saying, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, let's leave first."

Dugu City glanced at Emperor Yuan Zhao, then hurriedly followed Zhang Gonggong out of the bedroom. They were worried that they would be discovered if they stayed any longer. If they were found out, they would both be finished.

Zhang Gonggong, with Dugu City by his side, changed into new clothes and knelt down directly.

"Your Highness Prince Chen, the servant has only just learned that the Emperor confiscated your military power back then and imprisoned you in this mansion, causing you great grievances. But now, I humbly beseech you to lend a hand. The Emperor is truly at his wit's end. Please lead your troops into the palace and rescue him from his current predicament."

"This king only has this tiger talisman. Even if I bring troops into the palace, it wouldn't be right or proper. Furthermore, with King Yu and the Empress Dowager currently in power, this king is utterly powerless."'ll do it myself.""Feng Lingxi smiled and said, 'Sister, let me help you.'"Looking at her elder sister's gentle tone, Feng Yu Mo took a deep breath, "Actually, Gu Li's actions were indeed wrong. I'm a...
