ble to stand more firmly in the Prince's Mansion.""Father, I remember correctly, wasn't this task for my younger brother arranged by the Fourth Prince"Feng Aotien's face stiffened, "You don't think Xi...The atmosphere thickened, and while the weather outside the gazebo was scorching hot, inside it noticeably cooled down due to Feng Aotian's words. Feng Aotian looked at Feng Lingxi's increasingly cold face, his anger reaching its peak.
Feng Aotien saw Feng Ling, and he was speechless. He suddenly didn't know what to say, and after a long silence, Feng Aotien couldn't bear it any longer and spoke up.
"Dad knows you have strong opinions about them, and think Dad isn't treating you fairly. But have you ever thought about why I treat them well, but not you like that..."
Feng Lingxi's cold eyes swept over him, "Why am I against them Don't you have a clue"
Before Feng Aotien could speak, Feng Lingxi continued, "Haven't you always treated me poorly It started when I burned my brain and was considered unloved. Even after I recovered, because I wouldn't listen to you and couldn't be used by you, you weren't as fond of me as before. I wasn't as foolish as before, allowing those people to bully me."
Feng Lingxi's reprimand made Feng Aotian's old face flush red. It was indeed so, Feng Lingxi had burned her brain, he felt her existence was a disgrace, after she recovered, the things she did made him feel she lacked any upbringing, and his good impression of her disappeared.
And the others, out of respect for him as their father, would treat him with warmth and concern, even obeying his arrangements and considering the interests of the Feng family, earning his favor.
" speechless, I told you so. Don't you feel ashamed to face me"
Feng Lingxi let out a cold snort, looking at his current appearance, she just felt exasperated.
"Remember what I told you If you don't treat me like your daughter, I won't treat you like my father. Don't push me to my limit, or I won't hesitate to drag the entire Feng family down with me."
Feng Lingxi's words sent a chill down Feng Aotiān's spine. Looking into the coldness in her eyes, Feng Aotiān suddenly felt that his daughter was truly a stranger, even more so than before she recovered from her illness. It made him afraid to approach her.
"Dad, there's one last thing I need you to do for me."
"Feng Aotiān!"
Feng Lingxi roared in anger, "What face do you have to ask me for help Do you really think I wouldn't dare cut ties with you"
"Once this is done, if you wish to cut ties with me, be my guest."
"Xiaoli, bring me the ink and brush."
Feng Lingxi angrily glared at Feng Aotian. Did she really dare not write a letter of severance to sever their father-daughter relationship with him
Xiao Li brought the brush and ink, Feng Ling Xi's strokes were powerful and forceful, she wrote "Breaking Off All Communication" and placed it before Feng Ao Tian, "Sign it, and I will agree to your last request."
Feng Aotien looked at Feng Lingxi's eyes full of ruthlessness. He really didn't expect her to go this far. The relationship between father and daughter, she really said she could break it
“You don't need to look at me like that. This time, I will go to the government office to get a seal and send it to Empress Cen. I will completely sever ties with you and the Feng family.”
"Are you going to do this"
"It was you who wanted this so much."
Feng Lingxi placed her pen in front of him, "Sign or not, it's up to you. I'm too lazy to waste my breath with you here."
Feng Lingxi stood with her back to Feng Aotien, unwilling to see his hideous face again. She was utterly disappointed in this so-called father of hers. If not for her mother's sake, she would have been even harsher.
Feng Aotian looked at the severed letter, and for a long time, he didn't sign it.
The atmosphere was so tense, it felt like the air around them had turned to ice. No one dared to breathe.
When Dugu City returned to find Feng Lingxi, he saw this scene and knew that the father-daughter duo had quarreled again. Dugu City simply frowned upon seeing this and did not go over. He believed that Xi'er would be able to resolve it well.
After a moment, Feng Aotian bent down and picked up the severed book, tearing it apart.
Feng Lingxi heard the sound of tearing paper and turned to look at Feng Aotiān, watching his slightly reddened eyes, her mood was quite irritable.
“I know everything I’ve done has made you hate me, your father. Even when I ask you to do things, you don't want to, and I won’t sign this divorce paper. If you don’t help me, that’s fine. The Feng family bloodline won’t be broken because of this. Do whatever you want.”
Feng Aotian finished speaking and left the pavilion.
"Your Highness, the General seemed to have cried just now."
Xiao Li watched silently from the side, whispering a reminder that although she disliked the general's attitude towards the princess, when the general cried just now, she truly felt his helplessness.
Windling thus, her mood became irritable.
"Xier."
Dugu Cheng walked quickly to her, looking at the back of Feng Aoti leaving with her, "Do you want to chase him back"
"No need, if he truly meant it, he would prove it to me."
Xiao Li finished cleaning up the books and went back, making space for them.
"He sought you out so that the King would attack the Heavenly Revelation Country"
Dugu Cheng poured a cup of tea for Feng Lingxi, watching her still staring at Feng Aotiān's departing figure. He knew she was in turmoil and comforted her, "The battle in Tianqi Country, this king could easily intervene. However, the deal between Tianqi Country and Dugu Xiu, if it truly came to fruition, if Dugu Xiu were exposed, I fear Feng Yixuan wouldn't fare well either."
Feng Aotian probably didn't understand this point. He wanted to bring Feng Yixuan out with all his heart, but he didn't know that Feng Yixuan didn't want to come out at all.
"Feng Yixuan is now a bloodthirsty wolf, how could he understand Feng Aotians's painstaking efforts He wanted to help Dugu Xiu, but he didn't know that to Dugu Xiu, he was nothing more than a pawn."
Dugu City nodded, "Xi'er is right, that's precisely why this King is unwilling to go into battle."
"We don't care what they do, let them do whatever they want. After all, the military power is in our hands. If they try to take back the military power now, why should we get involved in this mess"
Feng Lingxi's words sounded somewhat resentful, with a strong hint of accusation.
Duguxing knew very well that this time, Duguyan had taken back the military power, simply because she was afraid that he would pose a threat to her throne with his heavy troops. However, he never had a way to fully reclaim the 500,000 troops in his hands. These soldiers belonged to him, even without the authority. As long as he gave an order, they were his soldiers, and no one could take them away.
"Not feeling well, Your Highness How about I take you for a walk"
Wind Lingxi glanced at the sky, "Should we go out now"
"What Afraid this king might do something to you under the cover of night"
Feng Lingxi glared at him, "You should be the one afraid." She was so angry now she could devour him, would she even fear him
Dugu Cheng laughed cheerfully, “Then this king will look forward to Xi'er’s performance.”
Holding her hand, their fingers intertwined, Duguo City led her out of the mansion, riding a horse towards the valley. At dusk, the setting sun painted the sky with a beautiful line of afterglow.
Dugu Cheng rode with Feng Ling Xi, galloping through the valley. They rode until her horse was tired and the sky darkened. Under the moonlight, Feng Ling Xi and Dugu Cheng sat hand-in-hand by the river at the back of the mountain, gazing at the night sky and listening to the chirping of insects and the sound of flowing water.you tell him I've returned home."The guards responded, and Feng Lingxi led Xiao Li into the city."Your Highness, did the person you met today tell you who kidnapped Young Master Yǔmò"Xiao Li voiced he...
