Chapter 1041: Ghost Saint Kingdom 2

uld give me a Tian Shan Snow Lotus A younger one would be fine too, it's mainly because of my hobby of collecting medicinal herbs."Du Guyu's expression froze, looking at Feng Lingxi's smile on her lip...Feng Lingxi reached out and hugged Dugu City tightly. Hearing him say these words, she realized that he had also experienced the darkest period of his life.

He was before her, laughing and chatting, as if he could see through everything. It wasn't because of anything else, but because he had already experienced it all.

"It's all over."

獨孤城應了一聲，伸手摸了摸她的頭髮，“如果不是母親妃，我可能真的就去當我的舍子淚，而不是天香樓的樓主。”

**Translation:**"Dugu Cheng hummed in response, reaching out to touch her hair, "If it weren't for your mother, I might have really become a 'Shezi Lei' instead of the master of Tianxiang Lou."

"What is the difference between Shezi's tears and Tianxianglou's owner"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City and listened attentively to his story when he spoke.

"Shezi Lei was the top assassin in the Jianghu. At first, I only killed to survive and out of anger at the injustices of the world. Everyone in the Jianghu knew my name. I killed without mercy, my hands stained with blood. But Tian Xianglou was a court chef from the palace whom I saved. While protecting him, he cooked palace dishes for me and told me about his life. He was old and had nowhere to go, and because I saved him, I remembered how good my mother and father were to me, and I became clear-headed."

Dugu Cheng paused for a moment, "After that, I used the money earned from killing to open Tianxiang Lou and took all those assassins under my command. Gradually, it formed a killer sect in the Jianghu, gathering information and starting this kind of business."

"In that case, this imperial chef is indeed a benefactor in your life. Then why did he leave the palace"

He wouldn't say, and I didn't ask. Everyone has a past, everyone has their own secrets. I don't want to pester him with questions, besides, he follows me faithfully, without any ulterior motives.

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi, no longer feeling the same heartache as before. His heart felt much lighter.

"Speaking it out, my heart feels much lighter. These things have been weighing on me for so many years. I haven't even mentioned them to my mother empress, fearing this past would burden her with guilt and self-blame. Actually, my mother empress already knows."

"Dugu Cheng let out a self-deprecating smile. 'She's a person of the rivers and lakes, how could she not know these things You've forgotten about Su Su aunt, your mother's family is also from the rivers and lakes.' "

"So, the Earth is round, spinning around and around, there's no escaping fate."

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "Now that Tianxiang Building has branches all over the world, doesn't that mean there are many branch buildings"

"More than a hundred, they're all taking care of it."

"Is that the imperial chef"

Dugu Cheng shook his head, "He's been dead for two years, the leader of the dark guards, and the deputy master of Tianxiang Lou, Ye Mei."

"Ye Mi, Ye Xi, Ye Su, An Wei are all surnamed Ye"

Because they conducted their affairs at night, they were given the surname Ye. Ye Mei was the most outstanding member of the dark guards, and the women under her command were all peerless beauties, with unparalleled enchanting skills.

Feng Lingxi, hearing this, suddenly understood what.

"Is this Night Demon a woman"

Duguyan nodded. "There are quite a few women among the Dark Guards, and their martial arts skills are formidable. Moreover, they are just as capable and ruthless as men."

"Then why didn't you bring a woman It's all men"

獨孤城 smiled, “Because this king dislikes women, no matter how good they are, none of them are as good as Xier.”

Feng Lingxi's smile gradually widened, and she coquettishly said, "You are such a tease."

Of course it's true, do you think I like everyone If you hadn't forced me back then, I would still be single and wouldn't have gotten married this quickly.

"Regret it"

Feng Ling Xi asked, "That night, I didn't know it would be you." She knew that if it was any man, she would have rushed over.

That night, I never thought something like this would happen. You should know, that day I was forced by you.

Dugu City's voice was tinged with a hint of grievance. Feng Lingxi listened and couldn't help but smile, "Still wronged Do you regret it Anyway, the daughter is born, regretting it won't do any good."

"No regrets." Dugu Cheng said softly, "Because it's you, I've never regretted it. Even at the very beginning, when I felt a little stifled. I was a valiant warrior, a feared assassin in the Jianghu, and I was actually raped by you. You say I don't feel suffocated"

"Then you're not very considerate either, making me marry and be a widow."

Feng Lingxi thought of the beginning, a smile appeared on her face.

A chance encounter led to who they are today.

"You didn't agree to it because you were willing to become a widow, did you What were you thinking back then Do you really think I don't know"

獨孤城 also thought about the time the two of them had spent together back then. He could say that looking back now, he was truly envious.

If there was still a chance, I would really want to go back to the life I used to have. There were not so many worries back then, and I didn't have to worry about anyone scheming against me or the people around me.

"Back then, we were truly happy. We didn't have the identities of Yao Clan members, our emperor father was still alive, and no one wanted to harm us."

Feng Lingxi nestled in Dugu City's arms, "After we finish everything, we should live like this."

"This time when we go to the Yao tribe, we'll get to the bottom of things. If it's really just about the chieftain's heir, we can give them a son, but we'll have to wait until he grows up a bit before sending him over. We believe they won't find it too difficult for us."

Hearing this, Feng Lingxi was still unwilling to part with the child.

This child left her parents at such a young age. Even as the chief, she wouldn't want to burden them, whether boys or girls, with responsibilities they shouldn't have to bear at such a tender age. It would be truly cruel.

"Dugu City, if boys could also be clan chiefs, I'll send my son born to the Yao Clan as their chief when he grows up. Would you bear to part with him"

After all, the Empress Dowager still hopes that Dugu City will ascend the throne in the future. If he becomes the Emperor, his son will be the future crown prince. Could Dugu City bear to do so

"What's the harm Boys should experience more trials. What if the Yao clan really gave the position of clan leader to our son Wouldn't that mean the Yao clan would belong to our son in the future In the end, after all the calculations, wouldn't those old-timers be the ones who suffer"

Feng Lingxi thought, that's also right.

"It's just that I don't know if my mother would agree."

“When the chief and my heir to the throne are not in conflict.”

Dugu Cheng knew what she was thinking and comforted her, "The most important thing is that the Yao clan has spoken up and given us time."

"Hmm."

"Alright, sleep now."

Dugu Cheng gently stroked her hair, "If you don't sleep, it will be dawn."

Feng Ling Xi hugged his waist, "Dugu City, thank you."

"Fool."

Kissing her forehead, Dugu City closed his eyes contentedly.

Even if it's hard and difficult, things will be resolved one by one. If we agree on something, then there's nothing we can't do.

Soon, a faint breathing sound reached his ears. Dugu City hugged her tightly and gradually drifted off to sleep.

Luo Li had never thought that bringing up a child would be this hard. Late at night, logically speaking, a child of this age, after having milk, should sleep. But the round eyes of the child before him stared at him, not crying or making a fuss, just refusing to sleep. What was going on

>l ill, I have been treating him for five years, but his condition has only worsened. I have tried every medicine, but I am still helpless. I wonder if Fourth Miss has any good remedies”He will get bet...
