Chapter 1097 Ghost Saint Kingdom 58

chest. Dugucheng saw this and motioned for Yexi to check if the other men in black had such a tattoo. As he expected, each of the men in black had such a tattoo."Strange, how could someone use religio...The steward plopped to his knees and stammered, “Your Highness, please forgive me. I know I was wrong.”

"Knowing you were wrong, what else is there to say Since you belong to the Consort Shu, naturally you should return to her. I'll find someone else to serve me."

The butler's face turned as pale as paper. The princess was going to dismiss him! He pleaded frantically, "Your Highness, I know I've made a mistake. I am willing to do anything for you!"

"No need, I can't afford to use the things of Imperial Noble Consort, nor dare I. You may go."

Feng Ling swept through the crowd of applicants, meticulously scrutinizing each one. After a long while, she remained unsatisfied, unable to find a suitable candidate. After all, this housekeeper had to not only be competent but also meet her exacting standards and be someone she could rely on.

When Shu Taifei learned that Feng Lingxi wanted to replace the people in her manor, she was so angry that she stormed out of the courtyard. The steward hurried forward to greet her.

"Imperial Consort Shu, the Princess wants to replace me. Please, Imperial Consort Shu, speak up for me."

Feng Lingxi, hearing the housekeeper's words, felt even more that she was blind to have let him be the housekeeper here.

Her money was used to support the people who even wouldn't feed her.

"Windling, early in the morning, what are you messing about again The cook has been replaced for me, and now even you, the steward, want to be replaced"

“Who I change to is my business. This cook doesn't give me food, what am I supposed to do by paying to support someone like this If I want to change, then I will change. And this steward, as the steward of the house, takes money and does nothing. The master has no food and he doesn't even know. He neglects his duties and is not even qualified to stay here.”

"What master The master of this mansion is Cheng'er."

"The Empress Dowager said that the lord of this estate was indeed Duguxing, but all the expenses for this household were paid by me. Since I am the one paying, of course, I have the final say on who my money goes to. I'm replacing these cooks, naturally. The Empress Dowager can keep them if she likes; we won't interfere with each other."

What is non-interference

Seeing Feng Lingxi's composed and tranquil expression, Shu Taifei was even more furious.

She withdrew all the people, could it be she's going to find another manor to support them.

“Zhang You.”

Feng Lingxi saw Zhang You coming over with his daughter, and called out to him.

"Would you be willing to serve as the steward in my household"

At least we know each other.

This man looks refined and cultured. To be bringing his daughter along is also quite difficult. Furthermore, the matter with Qing He hasn't been resolved yet. Keeping him here serves two purposes: first, it solves his housing and transportation issues, and second, perhaps we can gain something by helping him.

Zhang You was startled and quickly replied, "My Lady, I'm just an ordinary commoner. I've never served as a steward before."

"Can you read"

Wind Ling Xi asked, Zhang Yu looking at everyone staring at him, his face was a little embarrassed, he clasped his hands and said, "Returning to the Princess, the villain can read."

"This steward position is yours. I'll find someone to bring you and teach you how to manage the affairs of this household. It's not convenient for you to be here with your daughter, so being a steward would be suitable. Whenever you want to leave, I won't stop you."

"Thank you, Your Highness. It is an honor to be of service."

Zhang You knelt down, pulling his daughter with him. Feng Lingxi looked at Zhang You's daughter, "Your daughter and my Wan'er are about the same age. It would be good to let them spend more time together. Children playing together will also be beneficial."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."

Zhang You hurriedly expressed his gratitude and pulled his daughter, saying, "My little daughter, Zhang Yue, is willing to serve the county princess."

Feng Lingxi nodded. With a steward in place, the remaining positions of cook and servants were much easier to fill.

Shu Taifei watched Feng Lingxi replace the steward right in front of her, so angry that she couldn't even speak for a while.

"Feng Lingxi, if you want to find a steward, go ahead. This county office belongs to the city, not your manor."

Feng Lingxi glanced at Shu Taifei, "Since Shu Taifei has spoken so directly, then I will move to the Yao clan's main residence. As for the expenses of this household, don't come asking me for it. I won't be responsible for people who have nothing to do with me."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and looked at the fourteen and fifteen-year-olds beside her.

"Have someone bring my belongings to the Grand Palace."

"Come and go as you please, who's afraid of whom."

Shu Taifei let out a cold snort, trying to scare who

Feng Lingxi moved into the Yao Clan's main residence with Wan'er and her entourage. There was a steward there, but Zhang You was the one she chose as the steward, so she placed him as deputy steward there, directly under Feng Lingxi's control and not subject to the Yao Clan's restrictions.

The Yao clan's main residence didn't have many people. After Feng Lingxi made the arrangements, she sent a message to Dugu City. Upon learning that Feng Lingxi had arrived at the Yao clan's main residence, Dugu City didn't say anything and simply moved into the residence. On the day Feng Lingxi moved out, Tai Fei Shu welcomed twenty-eight beauties into the mansion. She intended to arrange them for the prince to ensure the continuation of the royal line, but unexpectedly, Dugu City ran away.

Looking at the wind. The dust-covered Dugu City returned, his hair still had a blade of grass clinging to it, and his face was full of exhaustion.

"Are you hungry"

"I didn't eat all night. Just got back to the mansion and heard you arguing with my mother, so I moved out and came over to take a look."

Feng Ling Xi told someone to prepare food, and looking at Du Gu Cheng's tired face, she sighed.

"I don't want to argue with my mother, she truly has no mercy. I'm afraid that if I stay any longer, I'll lose control."

“About Xiao Li’s matter, I apologize on behalf of my mother. After she lost her memory, her personality changed drastically. I tried to communicate with her, but it was unsuccessful. She's like a different person. Just like the incident with Na Fei, I said I wouldn't want it, but those twenty-eight women, I drove them all away. My mother doesn't know what method she used, but she brought them all back to the manor. The whole yard is full of women, just looking at them is frightening.”

獨孤城說到這些女人，還打了個寒顫，好像她們有多可怕一樣。

"Well, don't you want them to give you heirs"

Feng Lingxi smiled and asked, being able to hear Dugu Cheng's true words, she was truly happy, at least what she did wasn't in vain.

"Even you can't satisfy them all, what use are these women Besides, I don't have the energy to deal with them." Xi'er is better than all of them in every way, he doesn't want to be surrounded by so many women who would bother him constantly.

Feng Lingxi covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, "You actually still have the time to joke with me Haven't you been exhausted these past two days"

Du Gu Cheng's expression became serious. "It was a matter from the court, I went to the military camp to handle it and now it's finished. But as for Mother Empress here, I'm afraid Xi'er might be wronged."

"It's fine, my mother is just suffering from amnesia and has forgotten the past. I've already moved out, so she wouldn't be happy enough to come here and scold me, and besides, she couldn't get in anyway."

This Yao clan's main residence, outsiders cannot enter at will, unless she Feng Lingxi speaks up. Otherwise, whoever dares to trespass, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Where's that little girl, Wan'er Why isn't she here"

It's better this way, Mother doesn't come in. That way I won't have to argue with Xi'er. He's stuck in the middle no matter who he sides with. It's fine if we separate; when he has free time he can go see Mother, and the rest of the time being here is also quite good.

"I'm playing with Zhang You's daughter, I have Fourteen and Fifteen accompany them, nothing will happen."

"Zhang You"

Du Gu Cheng frowned, Feng Ling Xi just told him about Zhang You's butler. This Qing He's husband had disappeared after investigating Qing He's body. Zhang You still needed to help with this, and it would be convenient for her to investigate if he stayed.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!ew days, and they each have their own troubles that are hard to say."Did you find out everything"Feng Lingxi turned to look at the Third Elder, "I would like to ask for your advice, Elder. This little...
