Chapter 1415: Smoke Rises
n and sighed."Xi'er, Mother isn't trying to force you. It's just that the current situation requires you to give birth to a successor for the Yao Clan as soon as possible. Only then can we appease the...Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli's pale face, "I remember he beat you thirty lashes, I will get justice for you."
Xiaoli grasped Feng Lingxi's hand, tears welling in her eyes as she shook her head. With pain etched on her face, she pleaded, "I'm fine."
Feng Lingxi patted her on the back, looking at her like this, he felt even more heartache.
"Xiao Li, are you hungry I'll get you something to eat."
Wan'er walked up to Xiao Li with a large drumstick in her hand, offering it forward and flashing a bright smile at Xiao Li. Xiao Li opened her mouth, looking from Wan'er to the drumstick, tears welling up even more uncontrollably at the corners of her eyes.
"Don't cry, there's nothing to cry about. If you really want revenge, I'll kill that woman for you."
"No!"
"No!"
As soon as Su Yue finished speaking, Feng Lingxi and Xiao Li said in unison. The two looked at each other, and Feng Lingxi said, "This is a matter of the Chen Wangfu, I can solve it myself."
Xiao Li nodded in agreement, looking at the Queen with worry in her eyes.
"Your Highness, someone from the West courtyard has arrived and brought some top-grade wound medicine. They said it was from Miss Luo."
A maidservant came in to report, holding a jar of ointment. When Feng Lingxi heard it was brought by Luo Qin from the West Courtyard, she got up and walked over. Her eyes turned cold, and she snatched the jar and threw it away, coldly rebuking, "From now on, nothing from the West Courtyard is allowed to be brought here."
"This servant knows her mistake, Your Highness, please be forgiving."
The maid was so scared that she knelt on the ground, begging for mercy. Feng Lingxi gave her a cold glance, without the sadness from before, her eyes held only icy coldness, “Tell Luo Qin Yi, I, Feng Lingxi, am still the mistress of this Chen王府, and this Chen王府's back garden is not where she gets to point fingers, get out!”
The maidservant scrambled to her feet and rushed out, afraid that Feng Lingxi would throw her out the next second.
Feng Lingxi returned to Xiaoli's side, the coldness in her eyes had vanished. Instead, a tenderness towards Xiaoli filled her gaze, causing Xiaoli's eyes to well up again. For her sake, the Princess and the Prince were completely at odds, and even caused trouble with Luo Qin'yi from the West Courtyard.
"Lord, do you have other plans There is nothing left here to keep you."
Su Yue reminded, looking at Feng Ling Xi who remained silent, and said, “Should I inform the clan leader”
“My own affairs, I'll inform him what to do. Let him come here to stand up for me, or let him come here to watch my jokes. Feng Lingxi’s own business, I can handle it myself. You take Wan'er down with you. She is the future leader of the Yao Clan, so you must protect her well. If I leave, Wan'er will definitely not stay with him.”
"Yes!"
Su Yue heard Feng Ling Xi say this, and she felt relieved. As long as she wouldn't leave the County Lord to Du Gu Cheng, then she had completed the clan leader's assignment, could protect the County Lord, and allow Feng Ling Xi to command her.
"Mother, you haven't finished eating yet, Wan'er won't leave."
Wan'er timidly said, tugging at Feng Lingxi's sleeve, her little face full of pleading.
Feng Lingxi crouched down, reaching out to gently stroke Wan'er's face. She spoke softly, "Wan'er, why don't you go back and rest with Su Yue first Mother will finish these."
But Wan'er wanted to see her mother eat until she was full.
Wan'er looked at her mother with pleading eyes, her aggrieved little eyes seemed about to cry. Feng Lingxi got up and walked to the table, eating large mouthfuls, but her eyes were sour and painful. She wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry in front of Wan'er.
Xiaoli lay there, watching the Queen being tortured like this, tears of heartache streaming down her face. She couldn't let the Queen continue like this; she had to find a way to take her away. The King was sorry for the Queen, so she would return her to her mistress.
Feng Lingxi, after finishing his meal, looked at Wan'er and forced a smile.
"Wan'er, can you go back with Suyue now"
Wan'er nodded, looking at the smile on her mother's face. Her small body quickly ran over and hugged Feng Lingxi, her voice softly saying, "Mother, you have to cheer up."
Feng Lingxi's choked head, forcing back the tears welling up in her eyes. Wan'er let go of her, leaned down and kissed Feng Lingxi on the right cheek, then smiled as she walked out.
"Waner, I'm sorry!"
Feng Lingxi trembled as she spoke, and the moment her eyes closed, tears flowed uncontrollably, unable to be restrained.
She also wanted to allow Wan'er to be properly cared for by her parents, but now, Dugu City chose another woman and abandoned her and her daughter. He even beat Xiao Li like this. She really didn't want to believe that all of this was done by Dugu City, but the fact really hurt.
"Mother, I'm sorry."
Xiao Li lay on the bed, hearing the princess's words, tears welled up uncontrollably, and sobs escaped her lips.
"Your Highness, I am so sorry!"
Xiao Li choked back tears and apologized with all her might, "It's all my fault for being useless, letting the Crown Princess be bullied."
"Don't say that."
Wind Ling Xi opened her eyes, reaching out to wipe the tears from her face. She sniffed, trying to stop herself from crying. She couldn't let Xiao Li feel sad with her; she still had a lot of things to do.
"Xiao Li, I know you're doing all this for my own good, but please never go behind my back to ask Dugu Cheng again. We both forgot that he is a man, and he is also the lofty King Chen." And she still didn't understand what kind of person Dugu Cheng truly was.
It feels like the days spent with Dugu City were different. That Dugu City wasn't the same as the one now. This man is cold-blooded, ruthless, flirtatious, and consumed by power. He is no longer the Dugu City she once loved.
Remember that year they first met, they got married. The next year, she fell off a cliff into the desolate summer, and he searched for her. The following year, she returned to Beijing, pregnant with Wan'er. She went back to Yaozu alone and gave birth to Wan'er. The next year, Dugu City found her back. Not long after, Wan'er was kidnapped to Guisheng Country, and they both searched for her and brought her back. After so many twists and turns, she always listened to Dugu City, but what does it mean now
Fei Lingxi's tears rolled silently from the corners of her eyes, she slowly closed her eyes, the struggle in her heart, the answer within her, Fei Lingxi was unwilling to uncover, but it seemed she had no choice.
"Xiao Li, if I and Dugu Cheng part ways, where would we go with Wan'er Could we go to the Yao Clan"
Xiao Li looked at the lost look in the Princess Consort's eyes, her trembling hand clasped the Princess Consort's, biting her lip and saying word by word, "To the ends of the earth, I will follow you in life and death."
"Xiao Li."
Feng Lingxi held her hand, tears falling even harder. After a long while, she finally held back and shook her head. "No, I won't let you wander the world with me, I won't let you suffer. Who am I I am Feng Lingxi! I have a skill, I can heal people, I can support you all."
Xiaoli's heart was already aching so badly she couldn't breathe. She closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face even more fiercely as she nodded continuously.
She knew the princess could do anything she said, the princess wouldn't let her suffer, but she was willing to suffer.
"Alright, let's stop crying. It's just a man! What's there to cry about I'll pretend I was blind and didn't see him clearly. Since he chose Luo Qin'i today, then Feng Lingxi will not have this man. There are so many men in the world, why would I hang myself on this tree" their four Queens every night, neglecting even matters of the military camp."Rumors spread from Linxi County to the capital, reaching the ears of Emperor Dugu Xiu.Recently, his health hasn't been goo...
