about what was happening with Du Gu Xiu when she saw Ye Xi enter. "Greetings, Your Highness, and my Lady,""Get up."Ye Xi saw the king, hurriedly stepped forward, and said with a smile, "My lord, I jus...Feng Lingxi, upon hearing that she was to remain in the palace to learn etiquette, went directly to the Empress Dowager's chambers.

When Empress Cen saw Feng Lingxi arrive, she smiled and took her hand, saying, “Yao Hua, I have already persuaded the Fourth Prince to take you as his consort. Before your wedding, you should stay here with me to learn the etiquette of the Great Yuan Dynasty. Are you willing”

"Your Majesty, if I have learned the etiquette of the Yuan Dynasty well, will the Fourth Prince like me"

Feng Ling's expectant eyes made the Empress chuckle and nod, "Even if you haven't learned proper etiquette well, the Fourth Prince will like you."

"Yao Hua thanks Empress Dowager, if it weren't for Empress Dowager, the Fourth Prince definitely wouldn't be willing to marry Yao Hua."

"You silly child."

The Empress Dowager gently stroked her head, her eyes filled with affection. She treated her like family. Only in this way could she successfully convince Yao Hua to trust her and tell her more about Feng Ling Xi.

"Your Majesty, when did Yao Hua begin learning the court etiquette"

Feng Ling Xi pursued, "Yao Hua is afraid of not doing well, the Empress Dowager wants to teach Yao Hua everything."

"Rest assured, this empress will have Mama Liu teach you. I guarantee you'll learn. After the wedding, make the Fourth Prince happy."

Feng Lingxi gave a shy smile, “Empress Dowager.”

Seeing her daughter lower her head, shy and demure, the Empress Dowager's eyes crinkled with laughter. Princess Yao Hua was just a child after all; as long as they married her to Duke Dugu, everything would be easy.

"Nanny Liu, from today onwards, you must thoroughly teach Princess Yaohua the etiquette of the Yuan Dynasty."

"I obey your command."

Feng Lingxi excitedly grabbed Liu Mama's hand, "Liu Mama, let's start now."

"Yao Hua, today you must also be tired. We'll begin tomorrow. This Imperial Dowager will have Liu Mamasan take you to your palace chambers and let your personal maidservant attend to you. If there is anything you need, feel free to tell this Imperial Dowager."

"Yao Hua obeyed the Empress Dowager's orders and thanked her."

Feng Lingxi took Xiao Li down, and the Empress Dowager's smile gradually faded.

I don't know what Princess Yaohua sees in Dugu City, otherwise there wouldn't be so much trouble.

Nanny Liu placed Feng Lingxi in a comfortable spot and instructed the palace maids to take good care of her. She herself waited outside the hall.

Feng Lingxi was soaking in the bathtub, with Xiao Li attending to her bath. Her eyes occasionally glanced at the palace maids waiting outside, too afraid to speak out of turn.

"Princess, won't it be easy to expose your identity"

"No."

She had checked beforehand, her human skin mask could hold up. This bath was to be served only by Xiao Li, no outsiders allowed. Once her objective was achieved, she could leave the palace.

Xiao Li was still uneasy. Seeing the Queen's fearless face, she became even more cautious.

"Xiao Li, you must be extra careful these days and remember not to make any mistakes."

Feng Lingxi cautioned them, they had all disguised themselves and couldn't be discovered in public. She could handle herself, but she was worried about Xiao Li making a mistake.

"Rest assured, princess, I will be most careful."

Wind Ling Xi responded and, after bathing and changing her clothes, Xiao Li served her by dressing and making up. Making sure that both of them were without error in their makeup, they then went out.

"Princess Yao Hua, the Emperor has arrived."

Feng Lingxi heard that Dugu Yan had arrived, her brows furrowed slightly. She wasn't here to be a concubine, what was Dugu Yan running to her for

Before she could figure it out, she heard the sound of palace maids kneeling outside. She hurriedly took Xiao Li out to greet them, "Yao Hua greets Your Majesty."

Dugu Yan stepped forward, reaching out to help Feng Lingxi. This action made Feng Lingxi instinctively step back, raising her head to look at Dugu Yan with a puzzled expression, "Your Majesty, is there something you need from me"

"I hear that my fourth brother has agreed to your marriage, so I've come to express my thanks."

He still wanted to touch her hand, this Dugu Yan is really a great little flirt.

Wind Ling Xi silently cursed him in her heart, but on her face, she said gratefully, “Thank you, Your Majesty. Yao Hua will definitely study the etiquette of the Great Yuan Dynasty well and won't disappoint you, Your Majesty and Empress Dowager.”

獨孤雁 looked at Feng Ling Xi, her eyes gentle.

"Yao Hua, accompany me for a walk in the Imperial Garden. I have something to tell you."

Feng Lingxi followed Dugu Yan to the Imperial Garden. Along the way, Dugu Yan remained silent. Feng Lingxi secretly glanced at the eunuchs and palace maids around them; none of them dared to speak. The atmosphere was oppressive when with Dugu Yan.

Feng Lingxi didn't like this feeling. She and Dugu Yan walked side by side to the pavilion in Yugarden. Dugu Yan gestured for Feng Lingxi to sit down. Looking at the pastries that were brought up, Feng Lingxi was a little restless, not knowing what Dugu Yan had called her out for.

"Does Princess Yaohua fear me"

Feng Ling Xi raised her head and looked at Du Gu Yan, meeting his gaze with his bottomless dark eyes. “Your Majesty, why ask such a question”

"I rarely see anyone who is not afraid of me. You seem very much like an old acquaintance of mine."

"A female"

Feng Lingxi asked, seeing Dugu Yan nod her head, a jolt went through his heart. Could it be that she was the one he was talking about

"Her name is Feng Lingxi, I presume Princess Yao Hua knows her."

As expected, it was her, this Dugu Yan. He wanted to say something to her again.

"What are the Emperor and Yao Hua talking about Feng Ling Xi is my dowry. As long as I marry the Fourth Prince, Feng Ling Xi will be presented with both hands."

"Is she... okay"

"I'm wondering," said Dugu Yan hesitantly, "how is she doing"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Yan's complex expression in her eyes and nodded, "That's good. This princess has no grievances with her, so she won't treat her badly."

"Does Feng Lingxi know she's going to be sent into the palace as your dowry"

He had always wanted the opportunity to ask for clarification, why his mother desired Xi'er's life, but he didn't want to kill Xi'er either. He was caught in a great internal conflict.

"She had no choice." Feng Lingxi said arrogantly, looking at Dugu Yan's complex eyes and asked, "Your Majesty, do you like Feng Lingxi"

"I was only asking about her, after all, she is the fourth prince's wife. She was married to my younger brother by the late emperor. Even though she poisoned our father, my younger brother and she have not yet divorced. It's best to get some clarity."

“What’s there to ask Feng Lingxi poisoned the former emperor, she should be punished. However, I’m quite curious. I heard that when the former emperor died from poisoning, Feng Lingxi was not in the capital and had already gone out on campaign with the Fourth Prince. Why would it still be her who poisoned the former emperor Didn't she reach such a level of medical skill”

Feng Ling Xi's serious expression made Du Gu Yan feel a little flustered, she didn't know why Princess Yao Hua would ask so directly.

"Is Princess Yao Hua also interested in her affairs"

“This princess isn’t interested in her, but I am interested in her medical skills. This princess is skilled in poisons, but this Feng Lingxi actually has the ability to poison the previous emperor. This princess is very unconvinced and wants to compare with her, but my elder brother won’t let me see Feng Lingxi. Otherwise, I could directly have a contest with her.”

Feng Lingxi's face was filled with frustration. Upon hearing her words, Dugu Yan finally understood that Feng Lingxi had been controlled by Huangfu Qingyun. It seemed that if she wanted to see Feng Lingxi, Huangfu Qingyun would be the key.is lips, the fondness in his eyes unmistakable. This was the life he desired, and the grievances of court held no sway over him."You haven't recovered your memory yet. You don't regret it, and I hope...
