before we make a move.”"I'll arrange it right away."After Ye Xi left, Feng Yu Mo hurriedly asked, “Brother-in-law, Yu Mo requests to go together for the rescue.”Dugu City nodded, "You and Aman go tog..."If Her Royal Highness finds that I am wrong, or still doubts me, I have nothing to say."

Feng Lingxi smiled, “Zhang sir, you’re right. I was just surprised by your analysis and ability to see things. Your keen observation skills are admirable.” Feng Lingxi praised without reservation.

"As Master Zhang said, both my and the Prince's whereabouts are being watched. As long as we stay together, Empress Dowager Cen will surely know. And as you said, if there were no incidents in court, she would have received news a long time ago."

Dugu Cheng nodded, "Zhang Sir, these treacherous officials of the empress dowager cannot be left behind. They must be dealt with. No matter how many there are here, deal with these first. This king came here to guard the border, and I leave all matters to you."

"Your Highness can trust this subordinate, this matter, this subordinate will definitely handle it properly and won't disappoint Your Highness and the Duchess."

Zhang Baiwen eagerly accepted the mission and immediately gave orders, starting to act.

"Lord Zhang, this city gate is the gateway to the entire Linxi County. The well-being of our people depends entirely on your protection. Although I remain here, this gate is paramount. I hope you will diligently safeguard the people of Linxi County."

"This humble servant will remember the King's teachings and will use his life to protect the people here."

Dugu City nodded and took Feng Lingxi away.

Zhang Baiwen's words, Xier believes them all.

“He was willing to risk his entire family’s lives, and I observed him carefully. When he spoke, there was no hint of panic or deception in his manner. This means he wasn't lying to us, unless he had truly reached a point where he could deceive everyone.”

If that were the case, she would have nothing to say.

Feng Ling sighed softly.

"Dugu Cheng, you said that staying in Linxi County will help us solidify our power. How do you plan to achieve that"

Feng Lingxi frowned, "Although there are 500,000 soldiers here, you have to feed all 500,000 soldiers. Judging by the current grain reserves, it won't last long. We need to find a way to support them."

"Xier, Your Majesty has already thought it through. We will become self-sufficient. There are plenty of deserted areas here. We can cultivate the wasteland and grow our own food. There's nothing we can't do."

This was once supported by the Ahxia Dynasty and the Yao tribe. They can't rely on external support forever; they have to be self-sufficient. Otherwise, once they go to war, if their grain supply runs out, their situation will be very difficult.

“I agree, but becoming self-sufficient isn't easy. In this Linxi County, we have very little arable land for planting wheat. We'll definitely need to cultivate wasteland. Just thinking about how much grain 500,000 soldiers would need is terrifying.”

Dugong Cheng nodded. Although Tianxiang Building was spread all over the world, it mainly dealt with information and earned enough money to buy grain. However, it couldn't be exposed yet, so it could only operate secretly.

"Xier, there's something I want to discuss with you."

"What is it"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng's hesitant expression, frowning, "What is it"

"Are there a lot of food supplies for the Yao people"

"Do you want me to give you the Yao clan's grain"

Feng Lingxi frowned, it wasn't that she refused, it was just that she couldn't keep giving for long. The Yao Clan's grain supply wasn't inexhaustible either.

Yes or no.

Feng Lingxi frowned, "What do you mean by that"

Dugu Cheng gently tapped Feng Lingxi's forehead, watching her furrow her brows and said softly, "Although the Yao clan can provide grain, it cannot be a long-term solution. But the Yao clan can help me with one thing, which is to purchase grain."

"Would you like me to help you acquire grain"

獨孤城點了點頭，“瑤族收購糧食不會引起外部的注意，而且，即使囤糧也比我容易得多，而且不容易被人盯著，我不一樣了，若是購買糧食，多少眼睛盯著我。”

"Buying grain is no problem, it's just that I'm afraid the money in my hands isn't enough."

The treasure of this Yao clan simply couldn't be taken out. She needed enough money to buy grain.

"How could the owner of Tianxianglou be without money The money from Tianxianglou is yours, enough for you to buy feed."

Feng Lingxi instantly understood, "You want me to use the money from Tiangxiang Building to buy grain for you, diverting the court's attention."

Du Gu Cheng nodded, "Otherwise, with the weather here, it would be impossible to grow enough food."

"That's a good idea."

Feng Lingxi looked at the worry in Dugu Cheng's eyes and soothed, "Right now, with the current situation in court, we still have plenty of time."

"I wonder how long I can stay here."

Dugu City let out a soft sigh, "If Father were still here, he definitely wouldn't want to see us brothers turn against each other like this."

When it came to brothers, Feng Ling Xi’s mind immediately brought up one person. She hurriedly asked, “Of your father's six sons, I know all five of you, but this Fifth Wang Ye, how have I never met him before and never heard you mention him”

Dugu City frowned, "He's been missing for a long time."

"Missing"

Dugu Cheng hummed softly, "Father didn't say much. I don't know much either."

Only your father emperor knows the truth.

Feng Lingxi shook her head. Although the former emperor was deeply in love with Shutai, showering her with affection, he wasn't a qualified husband to other concubines. Cen Taihou poisoned him so that her son could ascend the throne. Wasn't this all his own doing

"Xier, if you're willing in the future, we can have another child. If not, we won't."

I have a daughter, she's pretty good too.

"No more sons"

Feng Lingxi furrowed her brow, looking at Dugu City's slightly stunned expression, "If you become emperor in the future, who will inherit your throne"

"What if I don't have to be Emperor anymore"

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, "Who can say for sure what's happening in this world If there were a wise ruler, wouldn't you rather have me strive for the imperial throne so that the people could live and work in peace and contentment"

"Do you think Dugu Su could be a good emperor"

It's only been a few days since he arrived, and his thoughts have changed again.

Dugu Cheng smiled, "Perhaps so."

How could he know, that in Linxi County, what he saw was the result of war and chaos. The people there longed for peace and prosperity. In the capital city, it was a place where power and greed reigned supreme, and hearts would be different.

He did think, if Dugu Suzhen could be a good emperor, he wouldn't fight for it. As for his mother concubine, all he had to do was explain things clearly.

"That's true, it's just my mother…"

"I'll tell you, as time goes on, perhaps my mother and I will both think the same way." Here, with Xi'er, Wan'er, and my mother, we live as a family. What else is there to be unsatisfied with

"My lord, something has happened."

Upon arriving at the county office, Ye Xi strode forward with a grave expression. "The people we captured last night all died from poisoning," he said. see her reaction."Then why don't you know what kind of person Feng Lingxi is after recovering your memory""I ask you, wasn't it her who saved you from Dugu Xiu in the first place Wasn't it her who br...
