Chapter 1330: War Smoke Rises

    

disheartening."How is it, seeing this imperial concubine and yet you do not bow"Feng Yu Xi walked before her, her red lips curled into a sneer, her beautiful eyes swirling, and her folding fan gently..."I just feel that this Feng Aotiān is not simple, he probably deliberately dragged you two down." Lü Niàn disliked Feng Aotiān very much. From his words and deeds, it could be seen that he did not really respect his sister.

"As for Feng Aotiān, how he treated Xi'er back then, this King knows best. His change, this King has seen it all. He is a smart man, and now, he also knows that seeking help from Xi'er is his only chance to turn things around. Naturally, he wouldn't give up on Xi'er as his lifeline."

"I knew this guy was just taking advantage of Xier. Back then, he abused her in every way possible, and now that she's useful, he sticks to her like glue. This person is truly despicable." Lu Nian was emotionally charged. He had guessed it a long time ago, but now that Du Gucheng confirmed it, he was furious.

Although Feng Aotiān wants to use our couple, it's not entirely disadvantageous for us.

Du Gu Cheng's words caused Lu Nian dissatisfaction.

"So you let him use Xier"

Faced with Lu Nian's question, Dugu City was not flustered at all, but explained, "Feng Aotian is someone we can't shake off. He has a firm grasp of power in the court. It was he who was sent by the court to investigate the border. Think about it, if he wasn't capable, would the current emperor have sent him to investigate this king"

"You mean, he's the emperor's man"

"Yes, but not necessarily."

Du Gu Cheng's words left Lu Nian confused, "Can you be more specific Is this or isn't it"

"The Emperor kept Feng Aotiān because he must have extraordinary abilities. His legal wife, who is Xī'ěr's mother, was the Saintess of the Yao Clan. This current Mrs. Zhao has a connection to the Yao Clan of the Ghostly Holy Nation. His daughter, Feng Yu Xi, also known as Mò Bīng, is the personal guard of Luolí, the leader of the Yao Clan in the Ghostly Holy Nation. Think about it carefully."

Since Dugu Cheng had said everything up to this point, Lu Nian, being so intelligent, must surely understand what he meant.

Lu Nian was silent for a moment before saying, "Xi'er knows this herself"

Of course, she's not stupid. However, Xi'er wasn't willing to help Feng Aotian last time because she felt sorry for the suffering of the people. In fact, she also hoped that she could help the King gain a good reputation among the people.

"Hearing you say that, Xier indeed lives quite thoroughly."

"It's always been like this." Dugu Cheng let out a long sigh. "And that's precisely why I worry about Xi'er. She went to Tumuw Town alone. If she can't cure this plague, she would rather sacrifice herself than put me in danger."

This is the reason why he insists on going with Xi'er. With him there, at least they can try to figure things out together.

“This girl is so stubborn, just like the women in the Lu family.”

Lu Nian's tone carried a hint of blame, but it wasn't meant to be accusatory. More than anything, there was concern in his voice. How could this young lady from the Lu family bear so much on her own

"I'll go with her this time. If you need anything, just speak up. I'll do whatever I can to help."

Thank you.

Lu Nian patted his shoulder, "I have something else to do first. Let me know when you've finished discussing."

He had to figure out the situation in this town. He couldn't let his sister get into trouble. Even with her high medical skills, there would be times when she ran into difficulties. If he didn't keep an eye on her, if something happened to her, the Lu family would be finished.

"Your Highness, why don't you try to persuade the Queen Perhaps she will relent"

Ye Xi suggested, "Actually, the Princess is also worried about the safety of the Prince. Perhaps the Prince could have a good talk with her."

Duke Gucheng sighed, "If things were that simple, wouldn't it be great You know Xi'er's temper - stubborn and unyielding. This king has no way to influence her decisions."

"Since that Prince knows he can't change the Duchess's mind, why argue with her Doesn't this make the Duchess unhappy"

"This king is also angry, Xier this temperamental girl, only knows to take risks, don't think about it, if she has an accident, what would this king and Wan'er do"

As soon as Dugucheng finished speaking, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Fenglingxi standing at the door. He was startled and hurriedly walked over with a smile.

"Xier, when did you come"

"Before long, you'll hear the words I use to scold you."

Dugu Cheng's smile froze on his face as he looked at Feng Lingxi staring at him. He was panicking inside, "How come you came without even saying hello." Wouldn't this make her even angrier

"Go if you want to, maybe I overthought it."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, turned and left, leaving Dugu City standing there in a daze.

"Are you agreeing or are you angry again"

"My Lord, I believe the Lady is indeed angry. Consider this, she kept you here for your own good, yet you chose to leave. Wouldn't that be a waste of her kindness With your actions, she must surely be upset."

Dugu Cheng gave Ye Xi a cold glance, "What do you understand If I don't go, what will happen to Xi'er"

"What will happen to the soldiers of Linxi County and the county princess now that the King has met with an accident The Crown Princess is a doctor, she can take care of herself. You, my lord, cannot heal illnesses, what would you gain by going Besides, General Zhen Guo is already there, your presence or absence wouldn't make much difference."

"You..." Dugu City was angered by Ye Xi's words, "Xi'er glared at you, how can you be so incompetent and speak up for her"

Ye Xi didn't mince words, "My subordinate just felt that the Princess Consort was doing this for the Prince's sake. Your words made the Princess Consort's face so difficult to look at. If you insist on going against her, wouldn't that make the Princess Consort's impression of you even worse Perhaps she feels that you don't believe in her medical skills at all, and thinks you're like a shadow following her."

"You're getting bold, aren't you"

獨孤城's handsome face darkened, Ye Xi hurriedly apologized, but was still muttering.

"My subordinate just thinks the Prince is a bit immature."

Dugu Cheng raised his hand as if to strike Ye Xi, and hissed in a low voice, "You still have the nerve to say that."

Night Xi hurriedly reached out to block, fearlessly saying, "It is you who insists on having your subordinates say it."

"You shut your mouth," is such a pleasant thing to say. I don't know if he's my guard or Xi'er's guard.

The two people who were originally on good terms became estranged because of this trip to Tumu Town. Dugu Cheng did not go to appease Feng Lingxi. When Dugu Cheng returned to the courtyard, he found the door locked.

"Xi'er, open the door."

Inside, Wan'er got up and, hearing the knock at the door, whispered softly, "Mother, is Father knocking"

Feng Ling Xi tucked the quilt tightly around Wan Er. "Ignore him, Xiao Li will speak to him later and have him sleep in a different room tonight. Tonight, Mother wants to sleep with Wan Er. Tomorrow, Mother has to go treat people and save lives. While Mother is away, Wan Er needs to listen to her aunt and be well-behaved until Mother returns."

Feng Ling Xi softly spoke, Wan'er nodded. There was another knock at the door. Feng Ling Xi glanced over, Wan'er fidgeted with eagerness to open the door for Dugu Cheng, but hesitated due to her mother's gaze.

"Mother, did Father make you unhappy"an with her, acting like a virtuous and loving wife. This actually sparked a competitive spirit in Feng Lingxi."This kind of thing can be settled. Yuxi is her younger sister, how could a sister harm h...
