Chapter 1193: War Clouds Gather

e with such disrespect. Does she think she's superior just because she married the Fourth Prince Let me tell you, I heard she's sickly, and the Empress has given the Fourth Prince a concubine. She's e..."You're a pretty clever one, aren't you"

Luo Li sipped the wine in her cup, but began to ponder Feng Ling Xi's words.

He understood Feng Lingxi's meaning. This woman, Wan'er, followed him because she had been with him for a long time and their feelings had grown. This way, the damage to Wan'er would be reduced. Secondly, she knew he wouldn't forget Wan'er, so she placed Wan'er's education in his hands.

This Wan'er is after all his child who he has raised for several months, he knows her temperament too well, she's definitely not a simple person.

If he were to be well-educated, in the future Wan'er would certainly be respectful and deferential towards him. It would also be mutually beneficial for both of them.

"This is all for Wan'er and the Yao Clan's future."

Feng Lingxi was still smiling, since she couldn't hide, she might as well let Luoli educate Wan'er under her nose. It's better than being clueless in the dark.

"Well then, it's settled. You and I seem to be destined to meet."

Waner looked at Luoli, grabbed a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth, her eyes still full of disdain.

Luo Li didn't show any anger towards Wan'er's actions. Instead, she opened her mouth and enjoyed being fed. In Li Wu Yan's eyes, besides worry, there was displeasure, but it was concealed very well and restrained.

Feng Lingxi, seeing that it was almost over, finally opened her mouth to speak.

"Chieftain, you didn't come here just for the feast. You also want me to entrust Wan'er's education to you, don't you"

"Of course not, I'm here to tell you that dessert is poisoned."

"Poisoning"

Feng Lingxi, upon hearing these two words of mine, hurriedly grabbed Wan'er's wrist and began to feel her pulse, her expression tense with worry.

"She's fine, someone poisoned her after you left."

"Who could have done this, Chief"

She was the center of attention, how could anyone coming in not know How high must this person's martial arts be

"The security of Chen Wang Fu is truly not good. Even a petty thief can come in and poison people, yet none of you knew, which truly worries me. Wan'er is the future head of the Yao Clan, she cannot afford any missteps."

Feng Lingxi clenched her fists. This person didn't just want Wan'er's life, but the lives of all of them. If this cake were pushed out to be shared, everyone who ate it would collapse. Even if only they ate it, they would all be poisoned. It was truly cruel.

Feng Lingxi got up, "I'll go take a look."

Luoli called her back, "Don't worry, let them watch closely. We'll go together later. Let's have dinner with Wan'er first. It's her birthday, and we can't let these people spoil her mood. As for the person who poisoned her, I'll take care of it myself."

The fleeting ruthlessness in Luo Li's eyes made Li Wu Yan frown. Could he really be falling for her

She is the daughter of the Grand Elder, and Loli's fiancée.

Feng Lingxi had no appetite for food. On the other hand, Wan'er seemed to not have heard anything and ate happily, constantly serving dishes to them. Her smile was especially endearing.

"Hurry up and eat, don't make Wan'er feel embarrassed."

On the other side, Dugu Cheng accompanied the leaders in their meal, but his eyes kept glancing towards Feng Lingxi's direction. Seeing the anger on her face, that suppressed expression, and watching Luo Li holding Wan'er with such tenderness, a growing sense of confusion filled his heart.

"Does Crown Prince Chen want to go and have a meal with his Crown Princess"

獨孤城收回了目光，聽到首領們注意到他，手鍊的眼神，“冇有，我就是看看本王的妻子女兒有冇有不滿本王冇有陪她們。”

"The Crown Prince truly loves to make a joke."

When the leaders heard this, they had always said that Prince Chen was afraid of his wife. Seeing it with their own eyes now, they believed it. Prince Chen was truly afraid of his princess consort. It seemed that Prince Chen was under his wife's control.

Come, have a drink.

Dugu City greeted them, but his eyes still drifted towards that direction, beckoning Ye Xi to go and inquire about the situation.

Word quickly spread throughout the region that Linxi County had held a grand banquet for Lady Wan’er, the young princess.

The guests had all left, and it was already dark.

Wan'er was not at all sleepy.

"Mother, cake."

Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li beside her, "Let's go take a look." She wanted to see what kind of poison this person had used.

Luo Li picked up Wan'er, and just then, Dugu City walked over to them after finishing his work. Seeing Luo Li holding Wan'er, Dugu City frowned slightly, reaching out to Wan'er, "Wan'er, let Father hold you."

"Tian Xiaomi prepared a poisoned gift for Wan'er, let's go take a look together."

Luo Li saw Wan'er walking towards him, she turned her body to avoid being hugged by Dugu City. Wan'er held her in her arms, this body always had a milky fragrance, which was very pleasant. This was something she had never noticed before. After holding her for a day, she became addicted to this scent.

Dugu Cheng wanted to reach out and hug his daughter back, but Feng Lingxi's eyes stopped him.

This will help Wan'er a lot, and perhaps her dangers when she goes to the Yao Clan in the future will be reduced.

"Who poisoned him"

獨孤城的語氣略冷，看著婉兒冇有嚷著讓他抱，心裡頭酸得不行。這回來到現在，他都冇能和女兒好好說話，這倒是便宜了落離。

Looking at him holding Wan'er with such pride, one would think she was his daughter.

Luo Li seemed to be deliberately provoking Du Gu Cheng, clinging even closer to Wan Er, a smile playing on her lips that made Du Gu Cheng's eyes widen. He didn't like her feigned innocence.

Feng Lingxi saw the situation and hurriedly stepped forward, grabbing Dugu City's hand. She lowered her voice and said, "I'll tell you later."

Dugu Cheng hummed in response, his attitude towards Luo Li was extremely dissatisfied, but he didn't show it obviously.

Tian Xiaomi and Feng Yixuan had already prepared red candles. Since there were no other colors of candles, they arranged the red candles in a heart shape, waiting for Wan'er to come and give her a surprise.

"Wan'er, happy birthday!"

When Tian Xiaomi heard Wan'er's voice, she rushed out and shouted. Seeing Luo Li there as well, the smile on her face instantly vanished.

Luo Li walked past, looking at the decorations in the room. It did feel quite festive and unique. However, when her gaze fell on the flashy cake on the table, her brow furrowed slightly.

"Xiaomi, this cake is poisoned. I'll check it first."

Feng Lingxi stepped forward, taking a silver needle to test the poison. The silver needle was removed, and no signs of poisoning were found.

"The poison I used under the heart, it's certain you know your medical skills are excellent. Silver needles wouldn't be able to detect it."

"Yexi, take a piece and give it to the dog outside."

Du Gucheng ordered, Ye Xi swiftly stepped forward and cut off a piece from the edge and the middle. Everyone followed him to the courtyard and watched as the dog being led ate it. Everyone's expression was solemn. Although Tian Xiaomi was skeptical in her heart, with Luo Li having arrived, there shouldn't be any mistake.

The dog ate less than a piece of meat, suddenly fell to the ground, its limbs twitched, and then it lost its breath.

Feng Lingxi quickly stepped forward, checked it over, and looked at Luo Li.

"Can the chieftain tell what this poison is"

Colorless and odorless, it is fatal if ingested.

"Who knows, Xinshui's connections are vast. Finding such poison is normal for him. You can't see it, so you think I can"

Fei Ling Xi was speechless. Even a doctor wouldn't know this.

"Luckily, the Chief told us or else if we ate this cake, we would all be in trouble." responded, watching his older sister put away the box, "Should this still be kept by the Zhao family""Staying here, the Zhao clan has one enough already."Du Gu Cheng didn't come, Feng Ling Xi slept s...
