e Xi was about to cry. He had no idea that after just dealing with the black-clothed men, the Prince would be so eager..."Ye Xi, ignore him, what's wrong"Feng Lingxi helped Ye Xi break the siege, and...Hearing the pulse, Luo Juzhou hastily drew his hand back, his eyes flickering.
Feng Lingxi, seeing this, put on a facade of a good sister and reached out to forcefully grab her hand.
"What are you afraid of Just call A Cheng brother, and consider this princess your own sister-in-law. Let me see."
My sister-in-law
"What a shamelessness," Luo Juzhou thought in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it. He just retracted his hand again.
"No...it's okay."
"Why not Don't you want me to take a look at your body"
Feng Lingxi's words left Luo Juzhou in a state of turmoil. He looked up just as Shu Taifei approached, and hastily stood up.
"Lady Shutai."
As she spoke, she was about to walk towards Shutai and reach for her arm. Feng Lingxi quickly grabbed her arm, "Don't tell Mother Empress."
Luo Ju Zhou watched Feng Ling Xi clutching her hand, beginning to feel confused.
Could she already know her purpose
Since she entered the palace, it has always been her and herself playing a game, preventing her from talking to Dugu City. Even now, Shu Taifei doesn't allow her to touch him.
Shutai looked at Feng Ling Xi's actions and said calmly, "Zhou'er is here."
Luo Juzhou hurriedly bowed, "Boat pays respects to the noble consort."
As she spoke, wanting to go over and help Empress Shu, she heard Empress Shu speak first.
"Xier, come here to your mother."
Feng Lingxi quickly walked to Shu Taifei's side, supporting her. She gave a subtle signal to her mother with her eyes, and then said to Luo Juzhou, "My mother has been unwell these past few days and needs to recuperate well. Luo Junzhu, please speak."
When Lu Juzhou heard that Shu Taifei was ill, he hurriedly asked, "Shu Taifei, where are you feeling unwell"
"These days, I've been selecting fabrics to make clothes for Xi'er. It's been tiring."
Feng Lingxi hurriedly reached out to knead Shu Taifei's shoulders, apologetically saying, "Mother concubine, you've worked hard. In the future, leave these kinds of things to the servants. You don't have to help me choose anymore."
"Mother, if you have nothing to do, you might as well help me choose."
The Dowager Empress patted Feng Lingxi's hand, her eyes full of love. Lu Juzhou watched enviously, his hidden resentment and unwillingness filling his gaze, but he could only show a well-behaved facade.
"By the way, Zhou'er came to my house to find Xi'er, is there something"
Luo Juzhou was about to speak when she saw Feng Lingxi give her a wink. Luo Juzhou knelt down with a thud, "Esteemed Concubine Shu, I, Zhou'er, came today to ask for a favor from you."
Just say what's on your mind.
Shutai's face was full of concern, Luo Juzhou bit her lip and mustered her courage to look up and say.
"Please, Lady Sushu, allow me to enter the manor. As long as I can stay by Master Cheng's side, even as a concubine, I am willing."
"That won't do."
Shutai refused outright, her brows furrowing. “Your Majesty has betrothed you to Prince Su, in a few days you will be the Princess Consort of Su, how can you marry Cheng’er”
Feng Lingxi never expected Luo Juzhou to make such a request. She was truly astonished.
"Shu Taifei, Zhou'er begs you."
Luo Juzhou spoke, bowing to Shutai's empress. Shutai's empress looked at Feng Lingxi, her eyes full of confusion, not knowing how things had developed into this.
"Miss Luo, aren't you making things difficult for your mother Not to mention that you have already been betrothed to the King of Su, but even last night's affair... If you entered the house, wouldn't it lead to misunderstandings"
Feng Lingxi's words successfully aroused Shutai Fei's curiosity.
"Xier, what happened last night"
"Fourth Princess, I never meant to steal Cheng Gege away from you. I was just…"
"No way."
Feng Lingxi didn't give her any face at all, even snatching men to this point, she couldn't be soft.
"Fourth Royal Princess, I beg you, please let me enter your household"
Luo Juzhou's tears fell silently, her pitiful appearance made Feng Lingxi feel disgusted. She suddenly wanted to know the reason for her entry into the house. She lost her body last night and now wants to enter the house. This woman is so cunning.
"Xier, what on earth is going on"
I came here hoping to see if Luo Ju Zhou would cause trouble for Xi'er, but I didn't expect to encounter this situation.
Feng Lingxi patted Shu Taifei's hand and glanced at Luo Juzhou. She leaned in close to Shu Taifei's ear and whispered something, causing Shu Taifei's eyes to widen in shock. Her gaze toward Luo Juzhou changed completely.
Luo Juzhou's tears were falling even harder.
"Imperial Noble Consort Shu, don't you think that since Zhou'er isn't pure anymore, she doesn't deserve to marry Chengge"
"Boat boy, this matter, this concubine's family cannot agree to."
This was the first time that Consort Shu had addressed herself as "this palace" in front of Luojuzhou. Previously, her status hadn't been sufficient to warrant Empress Dowager's change in address. Now that Empress Dowager had agreed, she wouldn't normally have done so in front of Luojuzhou. However, on this occasion, Consort Shu felt it was essential to clarify her identity.
"Shu Taifei…"
Luo Ju Zhou's eyes welled up with tears as she looked at her, unable to believe that she had rejected him so completely.
Shutai looked at Feng Lingxi, "Xi'er, this matter, your mother concubine will leave it to you. You decide for yourself."
Feng Lingxi nodded, looking at the nurse beside her, "Send Mother Concubine back to her room to rest."
Shutai's consort rose, and Lu Juzhou rushed forward, but before he could even touch Shutai's consort, she was blocked by the mamas beside her.
"Lady Luo, do not be disrespectful to the Imperial Noble Consort."
Luo Juzhou was taken aback by the scolding and looked at the nanny, a little shocked.
"These two are maids sent by the Empress Dowager to take care of Mother's diet and daily life."
Feng Lingxi nodded towards Empress Shu, asking the maidservant to send her back.
"Lady Luo, get up. Kneeling on the ground like this will hurt your knees."
Feng Lingxi's words brought Luo Juzhou back to his senses. He stood up and looked at her, "Why does the Fourth Princess want to stop me so much Won't you let me stay in the Prince's Mansion"
“If Lady Luo had made her intentions known to me sooner, I might have given it some thought. However, what she said in front of my mother just now, I cannot agree with.”
Luo Ju Zhou looked at Feng Ling Xi's eyes, a layer of coldness appeared.
Why
Feng Lingxi looked at the refreshments brought up and took a bite.
"The words uttered by Miss Luo just now, I ask you, if she were to allow you into her household, wouldn't last night's events indirectly acknowledge that it was City Master who did it This would be harming him, surely Miss Luo knows this"
Feng Lingxi's words made Luo Juzhou's eyes even colder. It seemed that Feng Lingxi had seen through her intentions long ago.
"The look in Lady Luo's eyes is something this princess does not approve of. Although I hear you were picked by a flower thief last night, the purpose you seem to be aiming for is only one thing: to marry into the Fourth Prince’s Residence, am I right"
Feng Lingxi curled her lips, meeting Luo Juzhou's gaze. The killing intent in his eyes made hers grow colder.
"I, as a person, have always been one who doesn't start trouble. But if someone starts trouble with me, I will definitely retaliate."
Feng Lingxi's words were spoken softly, but the chill in her voice caused Luo Juzhou to subdue the killing intent in his eyes.
"I don't understand what the Fourth Princess is saying."
"The Lady Luo’s arranged marriage to the frontier failed, it seems she learned a lot during this time. This poison is insidious, injected silently into the body without a trace. Such high-level skills in poisons, this Princess admires them."
Luo Juzhou looked at Feng Lingxi's sneer at the corner of her lips, and her face regained a pitiful look.Country."Su Yue hurriedly stopped her, "Princess, I also heard that the eldest son of the Lu family has arrived in the capital. Would you like to meet him first""He's here"After Feng Lingxi disappeare...
