Chapter 1019: Transformation 93
ds. I can attest that Noble Consort Long was not acting out of a desire to leave the cold palace. When I was poisoned, Noble Consort Long secretly came from the cold palace to my bedroom and stayed by..."So, according to you, if I don't marry Dugu City, I won't be considered a person of the Great Yuan Dynasty, right"
"This is natural; a wife follows her husband, and a dog follows its master."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng, “Since that’s the case, then I won’t marry you again. Since you’ve already given me this 500,000 troop command, I’ll consider it carefully and discuss marriage later.”
"Xi'er, you..."
Dugu City feigned anxiety, "You can't shirk your responsibility. Without these 500,000 soldiers, you're done for. I really can't afford to feed and clothe them for a day."
"Fourth Master, since the remarriage is impossible, this army belongs to the Yuan Dynasty. The court will take care of it."
As soon as Feng Aotian finished speaking, Dugu Cheng immediately reached out and said, "Alright, then please have General Zhen Guo make up the arrears of military pay first. The court only needs to make up the grain for the past two years, and this prince will hand over the military power."
Feng Aotiān's face changed drastically. Two years' worth of provisions and pay for 500,000 soldiers and horses – how could the court possibly come up with that now
"Probably around a million."
Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Aotiand, “Don’t say the court can’t come up with it.”
Feng Aotian's face turned green and white in turns.
"The Emperor only allowed the last general to take command of the troops, but he didn't say anything about replenishing the rations."
Thus, this king cannot entrust military power to you.
As soon as Du Gucheng spoke, Feng Yu Xi asked, "Does the Fourth Prince intend to defy the imperial decree"
"Can't you understand what I'm saying"
“She wasn’t unaware, but she was so eager to make contributions that she forgot her own identity. As the saying goes, 'changing the soup but not the medicine,' sooner or later something will happen. Am I right Your Highness, Moon Empress” Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes fell on Feng Yu Xi.
"Or should I call you Feng Yu Xi, or first Empress, or perhaps..."
"Audacious!"
Feng Yu Xi stared at Feng Ling Xi, her eyes filled with coldness. She simply tore off the human skin mask on her face, revealing her true appearance.
"With so much killing intent directed at me, there's only you, Feng Yu Xi. If you want to conceal it better, then tone down your killing intent towards me. That way, you can achieve what you desire."
"Now that you've recognized me, I have no fear in being honest with you."
Feng Yu Xi looked at Feng Ling Xi, her eyes still fearless. "I came here by order to receive the military power..."
"Even in the midst of storms, don't you ever leave your house without a brain You think I would give you military power just because you came here to ask After taking military power, waiting for them to come and annihilate them, it's truly laughable. You really take yourself seriously."
This imperial court doesn't take them seriously at all. Now that they have heavy troops in their hands, how could they be afraid of the imperial court
Besides, the imperial court was plagued by both internal and external troubles.
"Do you want to defy the imperial order"
Feng Yu Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, "Feng Ling Xi, don't think that because you are the Saint Lord of Yao Clan, you can defy imperial orders. He is the Fourth Prince of the Great Yuan Dynasty! If he defies imperial orders, how will the world view him At that time, if the charge of rebellion is placed upon him, will you be able to protect him"
Feng Lingxi smiled, this wind and rain evening actually dared to say so.
"You make a good point. If I don't hand over military command, the charge of treason will be brought against me, and the whole world will condemn me. But what if that charge can't be brought"
Upon hearing this from Dugu City, Feng Yu Xi instinctively looked around. This place was surrounded by his soldiers and horses.
"Let me advise you, when speaking, be mindful of your status and circumstances. After so many years in the palace, how can you not even learn this" Blinded by hatred and jealousy, or has Feng Yu Xi always been this incapable
As the wind and rain intensified, Feng Yu's face suddenly changed color. Feng Aotian quickly stepped in to smooth things over.
"Come on, we're all family. Be nice to each other and stop arguing."
"Who is she with" Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Aotien's smiling face and couldn't help but sneer. This Feng Yu Xi's visit this time wasn't just about military power.
"Xier, we're all family here. There's no need to be so formal."
Feng Aotian looked at Dugu Cheng, "Fourth Prince, Yuxi hasn't been well since she miscarried. Please understand."
"Not feeling well mentally"
Dugu City looked at Feng Yu Xi, "General Zhen Guo, you better tell this king, just now you said she was the military governor, how come now she's Feng Yu Xi"
"Rain Xi is indeed an imperial inspector sent by the Emperor. This subordinate dares not deceive the Fourth Prince."
Is there still a lack of deception
Du Gu Cheng gave a cold glance, he was truly out of patience with Feng Yu Xi and Feng Ao Tian, this father-daughter pair.
"Tell the Generalissimo of National Defense to inform the Emperor that these 500,000 troops have all been given to Xier as her dowry. As for when she will remarry, it depends on Xier."
"Lord Si Wang, with you acting like this, I can't explain myself to the Emperor."
Feng Aotian glanced at Feng Lingxi, "If this military power is not handed over to the emperor, if this gets out, it's likely to make people misunderstand that the Fourth Prince has ulterior motives. This wouldn't be good."
"The power of the army is not in my hands. Right now, I rely on Xi'er and the Yao tribe to feed me. Even I don't have military supplies."
Du Gucheng's words caused Feng Aotian's face to change drastically. This was about the last time he hadn't given him the military supplies, but didn't he still give them in the end
This Dugu City is truly vengeful.
"If you don't understand, it's best to stay here until you do. When you comprehend, then return and report." Feng Lingxi winked at Dugu City. "Someone, escort General Zhen Guo back to the guesthouse for rest. Treat him well and show him proper respect."
The soldiers hurried forward, a squadron of horsemen already on standby.
Before Feng Aotian could say another word, Dugu Cheng wouldn't give him the chance. Now that Linxi County was under his control, Feng Aotian hadn't brought many people on this trip. Here, he couldn't just do whatever he pleased.
Feng Yu Xi looked at Feng Ling Xi, her eyes fearless.
"I want to talk to you alone."
Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yu Xi, "You've always been investigating my identity, haven't you I can tell you."
Dugu Cheng whispered to Feng Lingxi, “Lingxi, be careful of her schemes.”
"Let's talk tomorrow. I'm tired today, so I'll go back to the inn to rest. There's plenty of time."
Feng Ling Xi's words caused Feng Yu Xi to clench her fists, her eyes fixed on Feng Ling Xi, filled with unwillingness.
"Fourth Royal Wife, I want to ask you, did you know my identity a long time ago Is what my father told me true Am I like this now because of you" Feng Yixuan voiced his confusion, "Was Tian Xiaomimi placed by your side as a spy Were you deliberately watching over me, wasn't that right"
"Ask me why I do these things, ask yourself. Before you lost your memory and after, when were you truly happy"
Feng Lingxi finished speaking, turned around and walked back to the city without looking back. The group hurriedly followed, leaving Feng Yixuan standing there, lost in thought.
"Don't listen to her nonsense. If that woman truly liked you, she wouldn't leave you behind and go alone. She's Feng Lingxi's person, all those who work for her. Do you think she would have any real feelings for you"
Wind and Rain looked at the setting sun coldly and reprimanded, "Don't forget, Wind and Ling Xi are not our people. She is our enemy. If she doesn't die, we will." Cheng's eyes, his voice trembling slightly, "Fourth Prince, where are you taking Yi Xuan"Even though Yi Xuan is cured, he can't stay by my side. What's the difference between that and losing himAt t...
