Chapter 159: Palace Change 3

he threatened several elders and clan members who then turned against her. She orchestrated today's events to expose Yao Qing's plot."This Yao Qing planned for over ten years, why is he so impulsive..."When I went to the market today, I noticed someone following me. Could this be related"

Du Gu Cheng frowned, "You said you were being followed"

Seeing her nod, Dugu City's brows furrowed even tighter, "If they came for you, then who would they be"

"I don't know. I'll return to the manor and have Xiao Li keep an eye on things these days. If there's no more movement, then we can only accept this. If they're still secretly watching me, I'll investigate and see who sent them."

"Leave this to Yexi, he'll handle it. You stay at the manor these few days, so as not to arouse suspicion."

Feng Ling Xi responded, and now she and Dugu City had a common secret: their mother's faked death.

He knew, and she needn't pretend about it in front of him.

"Your Highness, the General is here."

Xiao Li knocked on the door and came in to report, "They insist on seeing you."

Du Gucheng looked at Feng Lingxi's slightly pale face and comforted her, "Xier, if you don't want to see him, this king will go see him for you."

"No need, if I don't see him today, he will still keep coming. I might as well go see him."

Seeing Feng Lingxi's sudden coldness, Dugu Cheng knew she was still angry. After all, Yue Mo's death was because of Feng Aotian's actions.

"Your Majesty will accompany me."

Feng Lingxi responded and, along with Dugu Cheng, arrived at the front hall. Feng Aotian saw Feng Lingxi and immediately stood up, "This minister greets the Fourth Prince and Princess."

Dugu Cheng helped Feng Ling Xi sit down, then sat beside her.

"General Feng, please sit down."

Hearing this address, Feng Aotiān's face changed slightly. Looking at Feng Lìngxī with a cold face, he hesitated for a moment but didn't know how to speak.

Feng Aotian sat down, Duguo City ordered someone to serve tea, watching him look at Xi'er, hesitating to speak, and opened his mouth to ask, "I wonder what General Feng is looking for Xi'er in the palace"

"I came to the Wangfu to see Xi'er, there are some things I want to tell her."

Feng Aotien's words fell, and he looked at Feng Lingxi's indifferent face.

"Xier, Father wants to have a private talk with you."

Feng Lingxi heard him calling her name, and she stared at him with cold eyes. "As I told you, if my mother has an accident, the General's Mansion and I have nothing to do with each other."

"Xier, you misunderstand your father. This time, your father came here just to explain things clearly to you."

Dugu Cheng raised his teacup, took a sip, and looked at the father and daughter. "Xier, why don't you have a good chat with General Feng It's best to make things clear."

Feng Lingxi responded, and Dugu Cheng stood up, "This King will go to the study first and come find you in a while."

Seeing Dugu City leave, Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Aotian, her voice extremely cold.

"Just say what you want. After today, don't come looking for me again. I have nothing to do with the General's Mansion anymore."

Feng Aotian heard her words, his face turning quite ugly.

"Xier, I am your father. Even if you don't recognize me, you can't change the fact that you are my daughter."

Feng Lingxi let out a cold snort. "You have the nerve to call me your daughter Since I can remember, I don't recall you ever caring about me. When I was five and had a high fever that damaged my brain, did you ever consult a doctor for me Did you ever look after my life or death If it weren't for my status as the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, I probably would have died in the backyard long ago."

"Xier, your father has been fighting wars outside for years. After you fell ill, I found many doctors for you, but they all said there was no cure. You have food and drink in the backyard, and I haven't treated you poorly, so why are you so unwilling to live"

Feng Aotian took a deep breath, looking at her angry eyes, and waved his hand dismissively.

“I’m not here today to talk about these old things, you must have heard already. Your third aunt is now the mistress of General's Mansion. I'll be leaving for the battlefield in a few days, and there will only be your third aunt as a woman in General's Mansion. Father doesn’t want to take another concubine either. Your third aunt has a gentle personality, handing over General's Mansion to her, I believe you would agree.”

"My mother's body is still cold, and you already let another woman take her place. You told me I would agree Don't you think that's ridiculous"

Feng Aotiān explained, "This has nothing to do with your mother. You should think about your father. This General's Mansion can't be without someone in charge…"

If you came here just to say these things, you can go back. The General's Mansion is already settled, my mother is already dead. What are you saying this to me for Your own affairs are your own business, take care of them yourself. And from now on, don't come to me about the General's Mansion anymore.

"Xier, your third sister is still unmarried. In a few days it will be the Empress's birthday. As you know, now your third sister's status has become a legitimate daughter, that is, your own blood sister. But your elder and second sisters are both illegitimate daughters. Father hopes that you will agree to transfer your elder and second sisters under your mother's name, giving them the status of legitimate daughters..."

"Impossible."

Feng Lingxi was furious, her eyes bloodshot. Looking at his face, she felt a surge of disgust.

She couldn't understand how she could have such a father. What nerve did he have to say such things

Feng Aotien was also a little angry, "Xier, it's just a nominal position, why are you so petty"

Feng Lingxi angrily slammed her fist on the table, glaring at him with icy eyes, "Then tell me, why did my mother suddenly fall ill and die so abruptly"

"You are the one who healed her. I admit I was rough, but if your medical skills weren't lacking, your mother wouldn't be dead. Now you dare to blame me"

Feng Aotian dumped all the responsibility on her head, and he never wanted to admit it was his fault in the first place.

He had never experienced the allure of the outside world, and he was clueless as to how he had ended up like this.

Wind Lingxi, upon hearing his words, felt even colder in her heart.

"I won't agree to your request. My mother only has me as her daughter. Besides, you already have a wife now. Placing Feng Linglong and Feng Lingyu with your current wife is better than placing them with my mother. At least your current wife is alive."

Feng Ling Xi stood up, Feng Ao Tian roared angrily, "You stop right there."

Feng Lingxi closed her eyes tightly, her clenched fists creaking.

"As sisters, shouldn't we support each other"

Feng Ling Xi opened her eyes, her eyes were cold and clear.

Unless I die, there's no room for negotiation.

With a single sentence left hanging, Feng Lingxi strode out without looking back, leaving Feng Aotien standing there with a face ashen.

"A rebellious daughter!"

He was so annoyed. He really didn't want to come see her if she hadn't agreed.

Linglong, why did she have to be registered under the Zhang family name Wouldn't it have been just as fine under the Zhao family name

Feng Lingxi walked out of the front hall and saw Feng Linglong striding in. Looking at her flamboyant attire, she said coldly, "Xiao Li, see her off."

"Well now, Fourth Royal Consort, is this how you greet me Avoiding me like the plague"

Feng Linglong walked before her, seeing that her complexion was so poor. Her eyes swept past her father who had walked out from the front hall and said faintly, "Fourth sister, elder sister is here today because of family matters. Would elder sister not please invite me inside to speak"ured for her to sit down. Looking at the coldness in her eyes, she tentatively asked, "Are you really not going to tell him before leaving What if there's a misunderstanding here This man might be ver...
