Chapter 724: Yaozhi Rebellion 94

ctions, wanting to say something about the imperial edict being taken back, but then she changed her mind. Since she had decided to get along with her properly, she would go along with her wishes. Pe...I don't know.

Feng Aotian's straightforward questioning made Dugu Cheng very displeased. As expected of someone about to be bestowed the title of Grand General, his bearing was impressive even before the official decree. He even dared to question him!

"Fourth Lord could send someone to investigate. With Fourth Lord's abilities, how could he not find out who saved Sixth Lord"

"From the sound of your voice, there's nothing in this world that Du Gu Cheng can't do, is there If he truly has such great ability, how could he not even know what's happening in the capital" Feng Ling Xi coldly retorted, greatly displeased with Feng Ao Tian.

Feng Aotian looked at her, "I'm asking questions, it's none of your business, don't interrupt."

Feng Lingxi sneered, looking at Feng Aotian's posture, she couldn't help but ask, "I dare to ask General Feng, do you mean that I am not worthy of speaking to you"

"Xier, don't be naughty. I and the Fourth Prince are discussing official business."

"General Feng, please be mindful of your words. I am the Fourth Princess Consort of Dugu City. General Feng should address me as "Fourth Princess Consort." If you are unwilling, you may address me like them, as "Your Holiness."

Feng Aotiān's face instantly fell, knowing that she had become the Holy Master of Yaò Clan, but she didn't expect her to be even more arrogant now.

"No matter what you do, you can't change the fact that you are my daughter."

But I don't want to be your daughter.

Feng Lingxi looked at the soldiers behind him, "What's so good about being your daughter From childhood to adulthood, because I'm your daughter, I haven't enjoyed any benefits of being your daughter. Being bullied, being neglected, being your daughter, there's only this, I don't want to."

Feng Aotien glared at her, anger blazing in his eyes.

"No matter what, you are still my daughter. This is an undeniable fact. Your mother and I gave birth to you, and that's your destiny. From the moment you were born, you couldn't change the fact that you are my daughter."

Feng Aotian didn't know where it started, he bit down on this identity, no matter how Feng Lingxi said, he countered with this sentence, making Feng Lingxi very unhappy.

"The Empress's status is far more noble than yours. Before me, she has to address me as Father, let alone you."

Feng Lingxi narrowed her eyes slightly. This time, seeing him again, Feng Aotians's changes truly made her feel the aura of this man who hadn't yet been granted the title of Generalissimo.

What a good one, born unable to change the fact that she is his daughter.

Even a queen has to address him as father.

It seems she's not in the capital during this time. He has truly been well-disciplined by Feng Yu Xi, becoming more and more like a great general.

Dugu Cheng was watching Xi’er's displeasure, just about to speak up for her, when he heard Feng Lingxi say, "General Feng is right. Since they are all your daughters, then I shall remember this. In that case, I will not disturb you from discussing business. Farewell."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and walked to Dugu City's side, lowering her voice and saying, "I'm going for a walk."

"Don't go too far."

Feng Lingxi responded and went out with Xiao Li. Feng Aotian snorted coldly, very dissatisfied with Feng Lingxi's rudeness, but he didn't stop her.

Such a reaction fell into Dugu City's eyes, he was very unhappy. His woman being scolded like this, he naturally couldn't bear it.

"Wind General, this king heard that you're about to be granted the title of Duke Protector, is this true"

"The Fourth King's information network is extensive, he would know so quickly."

Feng Aotien proudly raised his head, his expression making him seem unattainable.

"I just learned about this, Your Majesty. I didn't know if it was the Emperor's wish or the Empress Dowager's."

"Of course, it means the Empress."

Feng Aotian in front of Dugu City, he claimed that he was unwilling to mention it.

Dugu Cheng raised an eyebrow and smiled coldly, looking at Feng Aotian's arrogant expression. "In that case, the imperial court of the Great Yuan Dynasty is ruled by the Empress' words, which hold more weight than the Emperor's or the Grand Empress Dowager's edicts."

Feng Aotian's expression changed slightly, but he made a great effort not to show it.

Although I have been away from the capital for a while, I am well aware that in the current Great Yuan court, it is His Majesty the current emperor and General Feng who hold the most weight. General Feng, allow me to remind you, being bestowed the title of Grand Marshal of the Nation is not something given simply by the Empress's word.

Dugu Cheng's face turned cold, and his attitude toward Feng Aotian became indifferent. "General Feng, don't forget your identity. The Great Yuan Dynasty belongs to the Dugu family, not the Feng family."

Feng Aotian's face darkened upon being reprimanded in such a manner.

"Fourth Lord, the matter of your bestowed title, His Majesty is aware. Once we return this time, everything will be settled."

Then just wait for the imperial decree. General Feng, come before this king again and show off your General's prestige, but right now, you don't have that qualification."

Dugu Cheng's face darkened, and he looked at the restless soldiers behind him with cold eyes. "What Do you want to attack this king"

"I dare not."

Feng Aotian ultimately compromised, just as Dugu City said now. The imperial decree hadn't arrived yet, and he didn't have the qualifications to act so arrogantly.

獨孤城冷哼一聲，“既然是奉命前來保護本王回京，就該做好自己的本分，來人，給風將軍安排一間房間，其他將士都給本王退出客棧，冇有本王的允許，不許踏入客棧半步，違令者，軍法處置。”

Dugu Cheng spoke, Feng Aotian was about to retort when suddenly a group of riders rushed in from outside the inn, blocking Dugu Cheng's path. This was when Feng Aotian realized that on his return trip, he hadn't brought many people with him, but there were quite a few following him secretly.

"Four Kings, what's all the commotion here It's so loud that I can't even sleep."

Luo Li walked in, yawned lazily, and glanced over Feng Aotian, her eyebrows raised.

"Who is this"

Feng Aotian saw a stranger enter, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Dugu Cheng walk towards the person and whisper, "Xi'er just went out. This king has something to attend to here. I trouble Lao Brother with watching over things for a bit."

"Who upset her"

Luo Li furrowed her brows, looking at Feng Aotiān's arrogant gaze with a hint of coldness. "The Saint Lord of our Yao clan is not to be bullied by outsiders."

Feng Aotien heard his words, just about to explode in anger, when he heard a shout from outside, "Clan Chief, I have something to report."

Luo Li waved goodbye to Dugu Cheng and walked out. Feng Aotian stared at Luo Li's departing figure, his eyes narrowed, "That person is the leader of the Yao Clan"

"The Wind General seems to know a lot about the Yao people, even their chief. It looks like the Empress and the Wind General haven't spared any effort in their investigation."

Feng Aotian did not reply him, staring at Luo Li's departing figure with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"Let me give you a friendly piece of advice, the Yao Clan's leader isn't as gentle and kind as he appears. Before making any moves against him, be sure to do your research. You'll find it quite interesting."

Feng Aotian withdrew his gaze, looked at the coldness in Dugu Cheng's eyes, and said in a deep voice, "I don't understand what the Fourth Prince means. I am ordered to escort the Fourth Prince back to the capital. This is what I will arrange, and I will return as soon as possible."serving her in the Holy Maiden's Hall, and the bed was piled high with thick quilts, it still couldn't feel warm.It's not just that my body is cold, but my heart is colder.In the eyes of outsiders, th...
