Chapter 1295: War Clouds Gather

g.""Xier, do you say that this king is ugly"獨孤城氣得想吐血，看著風淩兮眼神中的蔑視，鬱悶到極點。 獨孤城 was so angry he wanted to spit blood. Looking at the disdain in Feng Lingxi's eyes, he was incredibly depressed."My lord, d..."What a jerk."

Feng Lingxi gritted her teeth, her gaze towards Lu Nian and the others turning hostile. She couldn't understand how her mother could have fallen for him, wasting her youth.

"Well said, he deserves it."

"You know I'm good at scolding, so you should understand my feelings even more. If you were in my shoes, would you recognize him My mother was right, we shouldn't recognize him. He doesn't deserve to be my father."

Lu Nian swallowed the words that came to his lips. What was he doing Why did he bring it up Now, she had even greater dissatisfaction with her father, and even they were burdened by it.

"You don't admit he has nothing to do with it, but I'm your brother after all, aren't I You have to acknowledge me..."

"Just leave, don't mention recognizing each other again, and don't let him come see me. I don't want to see him."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and instructed Xiaoli, "See the guest off. I'm tired, so I'll go back to rest first."

Having finished speaking, Feng Lingxi left. Xiao Li had the steward see her off and followed the princess's footsteps. Lu Nian still wanted to stop Feng Lingxi, but was stopped by the steward. "Master Lu, please go back."

Lu Nian glanced at Lu Xuan beside her and sighed, "Let's go."

She truly refused to forgive her father.

Lu Nian nodded and glanced at Lu Yi in the courtyard. After Feng Lingxi went out, she directly took Wan'er away, leaving Lu Yi bewildered as he watched their backs disappear.

"What did you talk about How did you make her so angry"

"Who else could it be Our father, with his promiscuous ways. If he hadn't continued to seduce our mother after marrying her, people wouldn't hold such a grudge against us."

Lu Yi touched his nose, "Go back, there's no hope. We'll talk when they arrive."

The three left the Chen Wangfu, each looking like a defeated rooster, listless and dejected.

"Your Majesty, actually what they three said isn't wrong. They are truly your blood relatives."

Just as Xiaoli finished speaking, Feng Lingxi asked, "Have you found any news about Gulì after following Yǔmò out to look for her"

"Young Master Yu Mo hadn't found Gu Li, so he returned to the courtyard and locked himself in his room. The maidservants didn't know how to persuade him."

"Let him think things through by himself. He'll know what to do when he figures it out."

This Gu Li could only go back to her home. Yu Mo hadn't thought of that, he could only say, he wasn't attentive enough to Gu Li.

"Mother, why don't you like your three uncles They are so good to you, yet you always act so harshly towards them."

Feng Ling's footsteps came to a halt. She crouched down and looked into Wan'er's confused eyes, "Wan'er, do you like them three"

"I like them. They are nice to Wan'er, and they play with her, talk to her, and even tell me about things outside. It's so interesting!"

"Mother wants to tell you about what's happening outside"

“Mother said he wasn’t a good man, but Uncle Er told so many stories about his adventures in the world. Wan’er liked his stories.” Wan’er said, tugging on Feng Lingxi’s sleeve, and whispered, “Mother, can you let them play with me Wan’er likes Uncle Er.”

"Wǎn'er, I..."

Looking at Wan'er's pleading eyes, Feng Lingxi really couldn't bear to refuse her. But she truly couldn't recognize them.

Give Mom a little time.

Feng Lingxi pulled Wan'er's hand back, instructing Xiao Li, "See if you can get in touch with my mother. She helped me this time, and it's possible she's still in Linxi County. If you find her, let me know. I have something I want to tell her."

Xiao Li responded and stepped back. Feng Ling Xi led Wan'er back, and along the way, Wan'er kept telling her about Lu Yi and what he had said. In just a short while, Lu Yi had made Wan'er admire him greatly. Her words were full of love for this uncle.

Dugu Cheng and Ye Xi returned to the city. The two did not return home directly, but strolled around the city, preparing to buy some new clothes for Xi'er and Wan'er. They had been married for several years, and he had never bought anything for Xi'er.

"Ye Xi, what do you think Xi'er would like"

"The princess usually dresses simply. She is quite interested in medicine though. Perhaps the prince could give the princess these things, she might be pleased."

"This can't be given as a gift. In a few days, it will be Xi'er's birthday. This king has never given her a gift before. This time, he has to buy her something and celebrate properly."

When it came to birthdays, Ye Xi tried her best to remember, but she still couldn't figure out when Xiao Li was born. The princess didn't even know her own birthday, let alone this little girl.

He knew the princess's birthday was in April, but he didn't know the specific day.

"My lord, when is the princess's birthday"

"April 28th."

"Isn't there still five days"

Ye Xi looked at the King, seeing him nod. Ye Xi thought to herself, "Why don't I go back and ask Xiao Li what the princess likes, so that Your Highness can buy it later"

"No way, something given to your own woman wouldn't be something you ask others about. You have to choose it yourself, that's how you show care. Night Xi, Xiao Li, and your business, you better handle it yourself. Don't let things get to the point where she has someone else in her heart before you even catch hers."

Mentioning this, Ye Xi's expression stiffened.

"My lord, I don't like to hear you say that. Xiao Li and I have a good relationship. Her temper is not something everyone can handle, except for me." Ye Xi said this with a guilty heart.

However, he was just putting on a show in front of the prince. When it came to Xiaoli, he was nothing but a paper tiger.

"You're making it sound too good, capable as you are, you wouldn't have heard a thing by now."

Dugu Cheng looked at the jewelry stores in the city and walked into the biggest one. He took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to the shopkeeper, "Make this for me according to this drawing, and we can talk about the price."

The shopkeeper of the jewelry store glanced at him, “Your Highness, this is not easy to craft, it will take some time.”

“Before the twenty-seventh, just bring it to me.”

"No problem."

Dugu City took out the deposit and came out.

"My Lord, wouldn't the jewelry you just crafted for your Lady be a little too small"

“You don’t understand.” Dugu Cheng's smile deepened. Xi’er had said that people in her world got married wearing such rings as a symbol of eternal happiness. He wanted to create one for Xi’er, to enclose their love.

"Can't you see where you're going"

A sharp female voice entered the ears of the two. Dugu City looked up and saw a group of people surrounding the two, with people around pointing fingers.

"Go take a look and see what's going on."

The streets of Linxi County had always been peaceful. Upon hearing about this incident, Dugu Cheng naturally went to see what had happened.

A couple in hunter's attire was being surrounded and beaten by a mob. They had several rabbits with them on the ground, probably hunters who came to the city to sell their catch.

"What happened"

Ye Xi stepped forward, and as everyone saw that it was Dugu City, they hurriedly bowed, "Greetings to the Prince of Chen."

The hunter couple, perhaps in their thirties or forties, heard it was the Prince and lowered their heads, saying nothing.m the Empress Dowager"Dugu Su, "Yes, this king did it to conceal the truth, but rest assured, Your Highness, I don't want the throne. We won't be enemies."The seriousness in her eyes made Feng Lingxi...
