Chapter 767: Imprisonment 27

nown, if they are not carefully investigated, in case someone with ill intentions remains by our side, there will be unnecessary trouble. Every servant who enters the mansion is checked like this.""Th...Dugu City stayed by Feng Lingxi's side as the night deepened. Feng Lingxi always knew this, but she rarely sought out Ye Su.

As Feng Lingxi stepped out of the study and returned to her own courtyard, she saw a figure waiting for her. Upon seeing her, Luo Juzhou turned to face her with a smirk, his delicate features contorted with provocation.

Feng Lingxi walked over and looked at Luo Juzhou, "Lady Luo, my mother asked me to take good care of you. If you have anything, just tell the steward, I have already informed him."

"This county lord is here to find you now."

Luo Ju Zhou looked Feng Ling Xi up and down, raising an eyebrow and asking, "May I come in and speak It's a bit cold out here."

"Lord Luo, please."

Feng Lingxi led Luo Ju Zhou into the room, had someone serve tea, and watched as she looked around her own home. Her gaze seemed to be searching for something. Feng Lingxi noticed this and didn't get angry.

"Does Cheng Ge live here"

"He and I have always slept here."

Feng Lingxi's words made Luo Juzhou roll his eyes, "That's pretty sour grapes."

"A-Cheng isn't someone who craves fame and fortune. Besides, it's quite good here."

The housing in Linxi County is more modest than this, and they are still living well, aren't they

"Fourth Princess, when will City Brother return This county princess awaits him. I won't wait too long, will I"

Feng Lingxi heard her ask about Dugu Cheng again, and without concealing anything, she said, "I've already sent people to inquire about his whereabouts. If I hear any news, I will tell the county lord."

Luo Juzhou curled her lips, looking at Feng Lingxi sipping tea. Her gaze subconsciously fell on her abdomen. "When are you going to give Chengge a child You and Chengge have been married for a year now Not having children until now isn't good."

Mentioning this, Feng Lingxi didn't have much of a reaction. She was just trying to probe, wanting to know how she felt about Dugu City.

"We weren't planning on having a child this soon, Empress Dowager knows that too."

Feng Lingxi's words made Luo Juzhou give her a withering look, "Empress Shu didn't say anything because Cheng Ge is good to you. Empress Shu doesn't want to make things difficult for Cheng Ge. As for you, since you have married Cheng Ge as his wife, why don't you give him a child"

"Princess Luo must know about my situation, and it's not suitable to have a child right now."

Lu Juzhou's eyes scanned the surroundings, "Well, City Brother hasn't taken any concubines When I first came, there weren't any other women in this courtyard."

"The backyard of the prince's mansion only belongs to me, and it can only be mine."

Feng Lingxi's words were very infuriating. Looking at Luo Juzhou's expression, Feng Lingxi took a sip of tea and calmed herself down.

"Your Highness, Consort Lan has arrived."

A maidservant from outside came to report. Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Juzhou, "Miss Luo, Lanfei is looking for me. I'll be right back. You do as you please."

Luò Jú zhōu heard Lán Fēi, and hurried to catch up, "Wait a moment, I haven't seen Sister Lán Fēi in a long time either, let's go together."

Hearing her call Mo Huai Lan sister, Feng Ling Xi remembered what Lan Fei had told her before, thinking that they must know each other.

Suddenly, Feng Lingxi felt a tinge of envy towards them. Having known Duguxing since childhood, their relationship must be quite good, right

"Miss Luo, please."

Feng Lingxi brought Lu Juzhou to the front hall. Mo Huilan saw her arrive and got up to walk over. Feng Lingxi hurriedly bowed, "Greetings to Lanfei."

"Please don't be so formal, I came to see you today because there's something important I want to discuss."

As soon as Mo Huilan finished speaking, Luo Juzhou stepped forward and took Mo Huilan's arm, acting coquettishly. "Lanfei sister, long time no see."

Mo Huilan looked at the girl holding her arm, her face displeased.

"Who are you"

Luò Jú's smile froze, her face contorted with embarrassment.

Wind Lingxi explained, "Lan Fei, this is Luo Juzhou, the young lady of Pingxi Wang."

"Are you Ju Zhou"

Mo Huilan recognized Luo Juzhou. Seeing her turn and reveal a smile, she frowned slightly and asked, "How are you at the Fourth Prince's Residence I heard that King Pingxi came to the capital, but he should not have arrived yet."

Luo Juzhou was displeased with Mo Huilan's attitude, but due to her status, she could only endure it. She forced a smile, making herself appear innocent and pure.

"Father will be here in a few days. I wanted to see Brother Cheng, so I rode as fast as possible to the capital, but I didn't expect Brother Cheng to not be in the city." Looking at her complaining lips slightly pouted, Mo Huilan's eyes turned cold.

"The Fourth Master is already married, what brings you here to see him in such a hurry You're making it difficult for the Fourth Madam."

Mo Huilan's lesson left Luo Juzhou with a stiff expression, unconsciously clenching his fists.

Feng Lingxi saw the situation and opened her mouth to say, "Lanfei, Princess Luo and A Cheng are childhood sweethearts. It's normal to miss childhood companions after many years apart."

"What childhood companions Back then, my father and the King of Pingxi accompanied the Fourth Prince on campaigns east and west. She was just a little girl back then, how could the Fourth Prince play with her"

It has to be said, Mo Huai Lan's words were truly ruthless. Feng Ling Xi had originally wanted to ease the tension, but now that Mo Huai Lan said this, the atmosphere became even more rigid.

Luo Juzhou's eyes were slightly red. She didn't expect Mo Huilan to not give her any face, and even helped Feng Lingxi reprimand her, making it seem like she was in the wrong.

"Lan Fei elder sister, Zhou'er knows he was wrong."

Luo Juzhou lowered her head to admit her mistake and turned to Feng Lingxi, saying, "Fourth Princess, I hope you will forgive me."

"Miss Luo, there's no need to be like this. Guests should be treated well, and besides, you and Young Master Cheng are childhood sweethearts. You can stay at the Prince's Mansion."

"No need, the prince has his own residence when he goes to Beijing. It's not appropriate for the princess of Luo County to disturb him at home."

Mo Huilan looked at Feng Lingxi, her face full of disapproval, even more so than Feng Lingxi. Feng Lingxi frowned. Her mother concubine had asked her to keep Luo Juzhou, and if she left, her mother concubine wouldn't know how to explain it.

"Understood, I'm on it."

Luo Juzhou bit her lip, her red eyes seemed like they would cry out at any moment. That wronged expression made Feng Lingxi have a bad premonition, wanting to stop her, but Luo Juzhou had already run away.

"Luo County Lord…"

"Feng Lingxi, are you crazy What does she mean by coming here You're not stupid, can't you see it"

Mo Huilan angrily stopped her, forbidding Feng Lingxi from chasing Luo Juzhou.

Feng Lingxi looked at Mo Huilan's indignant expression and explained, "She is a guest of my mother. If she leaves like this, I wouldn't be able to explain it to her."

"What's there to explain Don't you see, she came here to provoke you. This Luo Juzhou is the most beloved little princess of Pingxi王府. She gets whatever she wants. She has liked the Fourth Prince since she was young. This time coming to Beijing is all about the Fourth Prince. Do you need this empress dowager to remind you"

Feng Lingxi looked at Mo Huilan's angry expression, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed. "She came here for Dugu City, this is her business, as long as Dugu City has no intention of it, that's fine."er was kidnapped and brought here for protection, but in reality, he deliberately framed those black-clothed men. He brought her here, it's really despicable and shameless."Rest easy, Fourth Royal Wif...
