Chapter 336: Seizing Power 91 >

pital, could he still be causing troubleHowever, they all knew of Dugu Yu's rebellious heart. Perhaps it was just a matter of time; who knows, he might rise again one day."These royal brothers are rea..."Interesting, really interesting."

Dugu Cheng glanced at Huangfu Qingyun, "Huangfu Qingyun, I'm right, aren't I Xi'er is not a helpless woman."

Huangfu Qingyun listened to the scout's report, he really didn't believe that Xi'er could have such ability.

With tens of thousands of arrogant warhorses, how did Xi'er make them poisoned and diarrhea What kind of medicine would it take

"Months ago, Xi'er already had a countermeasure. This Feng Aotian is just unlucky, becoming Xi'er's first test subject."

Anxiety vanished in an instant, now Dugucheng only wanted to set up camp and watch the show.

He believes that Xi'er will have even more amazing performances.

"How magnificent it is to see tens of thousands of horses all at once!"

Looking at Dugu City's smile, Huangpu Qingyun shivered involuntarily. Thankfully, he wasn't the one facing him; otherwise, the losses would have been devastating!

"Huangfu Qingyun, do you surrender now"

Dugu City laughed even brighter, "My Xier, either don't make a move, or when you do, astound heaven and earth, and weep gods and demons."

Huangfu Qingyun looked at Dugu City, who was beaming with pride, and shook his head helplessly. He admitted defeat, but not entirely. Wasn't this the outcome anyway

Xi'er likes Dugu City but doesn't like him, so he is destined to lose.

"So, you're not going to help"

Dugu Cheng countered, "Do you think we need to intervene This is a confrontation between her and Feng Aotiān. Besides, this is a good opportunity for Feng Aotiān to see how capable his least beloved daughter is, making him realize how wrong he is."

Let him bully Xi'er and see if he regrets it after this battle, his intestines turning green with remorse.

Huangfu Qingyun frowned. Although Xi'er was capable, letting them, a father and daughter, kill each other was still a bit cruel.

Linxi County

Feng Lingxi, clad in armor and a white robe, stood atop the valley, her gaze fixed on the scene outside the city. The coldness in her eyes made even the soldiers beside her feel intimidated, as if they saw the ruthlessness of the King.

"Your Majesty, shall we engage them head-on and give them a good thrashing"

General Sun stood beside Feng Lingxi, watching the scene before them. It was truly gratifying.

"These horses can't be used to fight to the death, but they won't be ready for combat in the short term. Feng Aotian should retreat his troops." He had no choice. Without horses, could they possibly face them all on foot It was simply impossible.

"Your Highness, should we let him go like this"

Sun, the vice general, was unhappy. “Since he bullied you so much, at least he should be routed and flee in disgrace.”

"They are all soldiers of the Great Yuan Dynasty. There is no need to harm the soldiers of the Great Yuan Dynasty."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and walked to General Li's side, "General Li, has there been any news from the Prince"

"Reporting to the Princess, there's no news from the King yet. It is difficult to get information about the situation in Linxi County right now. But please rest assured, Princess, the King is undefeated in battle and incredibly intelligent. He will surely return victorious."

Feng Lingxi nodded, "That's true, he has Huangfu Qingyun by his side. He will surely return victorious."

General Li saw that the princess's thoughts were drifting far away, her eyes full of worry.

"Your Highness, are you alright"

Feng Lingxi withdrew her thoughts, "General Li, you continue to have people keep an eye on Feng Aotian's side. Once he makes a move, no matter how late, report it to me."

"Your subordinate will obey."

Feng Lingxi left, Xiao Li followed behind her. The two walked one after the other, and Xiao Li couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Your Highness, letting the imperial army go this time, if the commander-in-chief were to be Dugu Xiu, he certainly wouldn't let it go."

"If that's really the case, then I'd have a much easier time handling it."

Wind Ling's beautiful eyes swept over the imperial army in front of her. "If Dugu Xiu appears, I will know if he is with Yao Feifei. Even if not, I can settle old scores with him."

Xiao Li heard the princess's words and quickly said, "Princess, I feel that you seem to have no intention of taking action against the court this time. With your abilities, even replacing them would be easy. Why haven't you made a move"

"Do you think I would betray you"

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li's unwillingness in her eyes and explained, "I don't want to let Dugu Cheng bear the charge of treason. I already carry the sin of poisoning the emperor. Even if we rule the world, we can't make the people wholeheartedly accept us."

Wind Ling let out a long sigh, "Moreover, neither I nor Dugu City desire this world."

"Your Highness, why have you lost your fighting spirit"

Xiao Li was a little confused. This wasn't the princess she knew. Could it be because the princess was afraid

"To have ambition doesn't mean to conquer the world. What I've always wanted isn't the world itself; it can be ruled by anyone, as long as they treat the people well."

Besides the Prince and Princess, who else has such ability

Little Li mumbled in displeasure, "Your Highness, think about Feng Yu Xi and Feng Linglong. If you were to go back and see them now, with their current status, they would bully you, make you suffer injustice. Could you accept that"

"Xiao Li, I know what you're saying. I won't forget what Feng Yu Xi did to me, but this has nothing to do with these soldiers. We are all soldiers of the Great Yuan Dynasty. If we fight, no one will benefit. Things have degrees of severity, Xiao Li, remember not to implicate the innocent."

"I obey."

Xiao Li knew she couldn't argue with the princess, so she said no more.

In Feng Aotiān's camp, tens of thousands of horses were pulling feces and barely alive before they even set out. Feng Aotiān's face was pale with anger. The military doctor examined the horses and found that the fodder they had eaten last night had all been mixed with arsenic. The horses suffered diarrhea, unable to fight, and the stench of horse manure filled the area for dozens of miles around. They were forced to retreat.

"General Feng, is Feng Lingxi your daughter Did you already know about all her tricks" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lord Liu was very displeased with this battle. Looking at Feng Aotian's grim face, he continued his accusations.

"Tens of thousands of horses have been lost like this. When this news reaches the Empress Dowager's ears, neither of us will be able to bear the responsibility."

"What does Master Ryu mean to do about this"

Feng Aotien's face was very grim. He never expected Feng Lingxi to have such abilities. The amount of Jiangzi powder she put on the horses wouldn't kill them, but it left them half-dead.

Abandoning the horses, they couldn't return to account for themselves to the Empress Dowager. Staying behind to tend to the horses would likely be unbearable with the smell of horse manure.

Feng Lingxi's move was truly devastating. Without expending a single soldier, she managed to inflict a crushing defeat upon them.

"Of course, we must seize Feng Lingxi and escort her back to the imperial court for the Empress Dowager to deal with. Only then can we save our own lives."

Feng Aotian looked at the ferocity in Liu's eyes and snorted coldly.

"Lord Liu speaks so easily, to capture her back. If we could really capture her, how would the Empress Dowager send this general out Lord Liu, are you jesting"

"I see, General Feng, you don't seem to want to But General Feng, don't forget what the Empress Dowager said to you."poison has been neutralized, and we can swap it for another."He just needed a test subject.Li Wuyan's words sent Luoli into deep thought, "Could someone else do it""Too late."Luo Li remained silent fo...
