Lingxi with a thump, tears streaming down her face."Miss, it is my fault. I should not have deceived you. But at that time, I was truly afraid to reveal myself to you. I was worried...""Little Li, I...Yao Wan'ying naturally wouldn't agree to tell them, so the elders of the Yao clan imprisoned her, cutting off her contact with the outside world. If it weren't for Yao Wan'ying's shadow guards, Yao Wan'ying would probably have been kept in the Yao clan until she died without ever having a chance to escape.

Yao WanYing had three shadow guards. After learning that the Holy Lord was kidnapped, the shadow guards wanted to rescue him. During the rescue, they were discovered. Yao WanYing fled to the Yaozu forbidden land and was forced by them to jump off the cliff in the forbidden land. Aman also followed suit, but when she fell off the cliff, she was caught by a branch, saving her life.

A-Man, who had escaped death, did not find the Holy Master at the foot of the precipice. She took the blood book given to her by the Holy Master before he fell and fled to the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. On her journey, she finally arrived at the Yuan Dynasty but was discovered by the Yao clan people who chased after her all the way until she reached Feng Lingxi's presence, leading to their first encounter.

"Aman, what is the forbidden place of the Yao people"

Feng Ling's voice choked with emotion, she couldn't believe that her mother would encounter such a thing. To be besieged on her own territory, and yet she was unaware of it all.

"A-Man doesn't know either, A-Man only heard that those who enter the forbidden area without permission are dealt with as rebels."

Aman looked at Feng Lingxi, tears welling up in his eyes. "Holy maiden, the Holy Mother must still be alive. Please save her."

Feng Ling hastily helped Amian up and soothed her, "Don't cry first, tell me where you fell off the cliff, I'll have people from Linxi County look for your mother first. I'll pack my things and head over immediately."

"My Queen, you must not go to the Yao Clan on your own. It is too dangerous."

Xiao Li stopped her and looked at Ah Man, "I believe the Holy Lord hopes that the Princess can live, rather than risk going to the Yao Clan. The current situation of the Yao Clan, if the Princess goes, she is only sending herself to death."

Aman clutched her fists, hating herself so much that she pounded her chest. Feng Lingxi saw this and hurriedly grabbed her hand, "Aman, don't worry, I will send someone to find your mother first. You rest well. I'll go talk to Dugu Cheng now and confirm the time to find your mother. Rest assured, I will definitely go."

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li, "Don't try to persuade me, I have my own plan."

If people from Linxi County are involved, let alone the Yao tribe uprising. If she were to speak with Empress Cen and ask for her support, Empress Cen would certainly agree. Since the mother is involved in the Yao tribe incident, how could she remain indifferent

Aman nodded excitedly, "Aman knew that the Holy Maiden would definitely save the Lord."

Feng Lingxi patted her shoulders, "Rest well, I'll go talk to Dugu Cheng."

Xiaoli followed the princess out, watching the snowflakes outside and hurriedly advised, "Your Highness, I beg you, don't be impulsive. The Holy Master fell off a cliff, and I am more saddened than anyone else, but Your Highness must remember that the current situation of the Yao clan, their eyes are all on the princess. I dare say, if you step out of the capital, it will be difficult for Your Highness to survive until you reach Xilin County."

Feng Lingxi slowly closed her eyes, "You said it as if I didn't know. But I am the daughter of my mother. How can I just stand by when she is in danger"

"But it is precisely because of the Queen's idea that they have this opportunity. Does the Queen really not want to consider the consequences If something happens to the Queen, with the Holy Master missing, what's the point Will the Yao Clan still care"

Feng Lingxi suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes instantly brightening. "There might be someone who can help me."

Xiao Li frowned, looking at the sudden brightness in the Princess Consort's eyes, "The Princess Consort means..."

"Farewell."

"Can this really help the princess"

Xiaoli frowned, picking up this fallen leaf. It seemed the princess was very resolute about it. But could the Yao clan now believe anything

Feng Lingxi shook her head, "I don't know if he can help me, but I might be able to glean some information from him." Looking at Xiao Li's worried eyes, she said, "Don't worry, I won't act rashly. I know you're concerned about me."

"Your Highness, you should think more about the King. He has put in a great deal for you. Remember what he did when you fell off the cliff You just need to remember that."

Feng Ling Xi responded, she understood what Xiao Li meant.

She has been to the brink of death several times, so why wouldn't she cherish her life It's just that sometimes, she is helpless. If not, who would willingly go out of their way to cause harm

"You take care of Aman, I'll go find Du Gu Cheng and have a talk."

At this point, Dugu City should have finished his work.

Feng Lingxi walked to the door of the study and was just about to knock when she heard Ye Xi's voice.

"My lord, can you really keep your internal injury a secret from the princess"

"If you hadn't said anything, how would Xi'er have known Her skills are different from mine; she wouldn't have noticed."

After Dugu City finished speaking, he took a sharp breath of cold air. Ye Xi helped him regulate his breathing and applied medicine to his wound. Although it was snowing, his forehead was covered in sweat, and his handsome face was unusually pale.

Feng Lingxi stood at the door, her steps froze. Listening to what Dugu Cheng said, her eyes dimmed.

He got hurt, but didn't tell her.

Taking a deep breath, Feng Lingxi knocked on the door. "May I come in"

Dugu Cheng hurriedly dressed himself, Ye Xi put away all the ointments on the table, and then Dugu Cheng said, "Come in."

Feng Lingxi entered and saw Dugu Cheng reading a book. Seeing her arrival, he quickly stood up and walked over.

"It's so late, why is Xier here"

"I just came from Ah Man. She's awake and told me about the Yao tribe. I came here to tell you about it."

Dugongcheng pulled her down and sat beside her. Looking at her expression, he seemed indifferent and hadn't noticed his injury.

"Xier, tell me."

"My lord, I shall take my leave first."

Ye Xi's knowing retreat was actually out of fear that staying here for a while would allow the princess to see through him. He was so guilty.

Feng Ling Xi told Du Gu Cheng everything that had happened to the Yao tribe, “Can you help me send a message to Lin Xi County, asking them to go to the bottom of Niang Zhuai Cliff first to look for mother's whereabouts A Man said mother is still alive.”

"This king will immediately send someone to Linxi County to have them look for your mother's news. Xi'er, don't worry, your mother is a blessed person, nothing will happen to her."

Dugu Cheng comforted her, looking at her peaceful face, his eyes filled with heartache.

"I'm fine. The most important thing now is to find my mother. I need an explanation, whether she's alive or dead."

Feng Lingxi clenched her fists, the worry in her eyes causing Dugu Cheng to worry.

"Tell this King the location where the Yue mother fell off the cliff and have them go and handle it tonight."

Fēng Língxī shook her head, " Mǎn just woke up and said too much, she didn't tell me the location yet. I'll ask her tomorrow and go there." Mǎn had a close call, her mind was in a mess. She asked her to draw a map so it would be easier for them to find people.

"That works."

Duke Gucheng looked at her slender figure, "It's getting late, Xier, you should rest early too. Tonight, this King still has some matters to deal with here, it will be late..."

"Dugu City, I want to see Luoli."coquettishly said, "Empress Dowager, are you blaming Yao Hua This bird's nest is the best. Yao Hua personally instructed the Imperial Kitchen to stew it for you. You must eat all of it."Queen Cen laug...
