Chapter 777 Imprisonment 37

if she was avoiding something and was also searching for something along the way.Feng Lingxi was worried about her mother's safety. It had been two years since she had seen her, and she didn't know w...Feng Ling's brows furrowed slightly. She liked this old General Feng's personality, but she wasn't sure if it was genuine.

"Your Highness, I will take care of this matter. Please do not be angry."

Ye Chen looked at Feng Ling Xi's eyes, full of coldness. He could tell just how angry these people had made her.

To Ye Chen, Feng Lingxi was a stranger. She only knew Ye Su from the Dark Guards of Dugu City. Ye Xi was her close guard, so she wasn't unfamiliar with him, but they were both absent.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Feng Lingxi turned around, looking at the displaced people behind her. Her eyes were full of worry. "The civilians have lost their homes and are being driven away by the government. You need to take care of them, just tell me what you need."

Nightfall, hearing the sound, immediately found several soldiers to deal with this matter.

The refugees saw the soldiers panic one by one, and Feng Lingxi soothed them, "Don't be afraid, the people of the Fourth Prince's Mansion won't do anything to you."

Seeing their nods, eyes filled with a mixture of apprehension and anticipation, Feng Lingxi gave them a reassuring smile. The disaster victims then followed the soldiers away.

"Ye Chen, you must keep a close eye on this matter."

"Rest assured, Your Highness, I will definitely handle this matter well."

Feng Lingxi then turned to face the soldiers, only to see the leading soldier presenting the fifty taels of silver he had just taken from Xiaoli with both hands, stammering, "Fourth Princess, we were blind not to recognize Mount Tai. Please forgive us."

Xiao Li took back the silver and let out a cold snort.

"Soldiers like you, staying here will only make the lives of the common people unbearable. The Princess Consort cannot possibly let you off lightly."

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Chen, "According to the laws of the Great Yuan Dynasty, Xiaoli, you watch."

Upon hearing this, the soldiers were terrified and hurriedly knelt down, begging for mercy. "Fourth Princess Consort, please spare our lives, Fourth Princess Consort, we truly know our wrongs, we..."

"Take this down and investigate thoroughly."

The venerable General Feng spoke, his voice carrying an undeniable authority. Feng Lingxi glanced at him before withdrawing her gaze and addressing Chu Xi, "Let's find a place nearby to rest."

Looking at her walking towards the carriage, General Feng spoke out, "Girl, do you really not recognize me, your grandfather"

Feng Lingxi stopped abruptly, but without looking back, resolutely got into the carriage. Chu Xi drove the carriage away, leaving the bewildered General Feng behind.

"This girl's personality is just like mine, so stubborn!"

"General Feng, my wife's personality has always been like this. Everyone in the capital knows it."

Ye Chen's tone was full of pride, as if showing off.

The old general stroked his beard, his eyes crinkled into slits with a smile.

"Just as I expected from my granddaughter, she has character."

The General's praise made Ye Chen very happy. Everyone admired the princess's personality, even though she didn't know it.

On the way back to the capital, General Feng asked Ye Chen to tell him about Feng Lingxi. After hearing it, General Feng didn't seem as happy as before, and his face remained grim.

Along the way, all the soldiers could feel the general's intense anger, and there were several outbursts of rage along the way.

Feng Lingxi did not immediately return to the Fourth Prince's Mansion, but instead found a house in a nearby village outside the city. Chu Xi and Xiao Li knew that the princess did not want to return to the capital, she didn't want to return to the Fourth Prince's Mansion. Knowing she was troubled, they didn't ask any further questions, they simply followed her wishes and moved into a farmer's house.

"Your Majesty the Queen, this is the dinner I have prepared for you. Please eat a little."

Feng Lingxi stood at the door, gazing at the drizzle outside. It was early March, and although spring had arrived, the weather remained cold. Feng Lingxi turned her head to look at Xiaoli carrying in the dishes, but she had no appetite.

I wonder what has become of those villagers, if they have found a place to settle and if they are able to eat their fill.

Xiao Li let out a soft sigh and walked to the princess's side, taking her clothes and putting them on her.

"Your Highness, since Night Star has taken charge of this matter, he will definitely handle it well. Moreover, General Feng is also aware of this, they certainly dare not be negligent."

Feng Lingxi walked to the table and sat down. Xiaoli served her food, “Your Highness, you must take care of your own body. Only when you are well can you do what you want to do.”

I know.

She just sighed, "The rich feast while the poor starve."

What he said is absolutely true. Unless you see it with your own eyes, you wouldn't know how disheartening the Yuan Dynasty's soldiers treated the common people. They ignored the suffering of those affected by disasters, drove them out of the city, and even labeled them as rioters. Is this what an emperor who claims to be a benevolent ruler is like

"My lady, I think General Feng has a good impression of you. Perhaps he is different from the others in General's Manor."

Feng Lingxi hummed in response, thinking of the old general. Her expression softened considerably.

"After returning tomorrow, the answer will naturally be revealed."

"Fourth Royal Princess."

Chu Xi stood at the door and shouted, Feng Lingxi responded and let him in to speak. Looking at the soup pot he was holding, Feng Lingxi's brows furrowed slightly.

"This is tea brought to you by my master."

Chu Xi put it down, opened it to look at the chicken soup inside. It was the same as last night's.

"Your landlord is so free, he even cares about my three meals."

Although so, Feng Lingxi still held the bowl and drank up the soup. Chu Xi's expression stiffened slightly as she watched her drink it all. "Fourth Princess, please take your time. I shall leave first."

"Chu Xi."

Feng Lingxi shouted, watching him turn around. Her beautiful eyes lifted slightly as she said, "Ask your master for me, I was entrusted to be taken care of, is this kind of care going beyond the bounds"

Chu Xi promptly retreated at the sound, Xiao Li looked at the princess with confusion, "Princess, is the owner of Tianxiang Building not very nice to you Someone is protecting her, no matter what their purpose, why pick apart that relationship It will be awkward to see each other later."

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli, the words she had on the tip of her tongue were swallowed back down.

"Have a little drink to warm yourself up."

Feng Lingxi did not speak, only drinking soup. After the meal, she washed up and went to sleep.

As night fell, a cold wind blew into the room. Feng Ling Xi instinctively pulled up the quilt covering her body. The conditions in this farmhouse were not as good as at the inn. It was bitterly cold and she was sensitive to the cold. She fell asleep but her hands and feet froze stiff, waking her up abruptly.

Wind Ling Xi opened her eyes and suddenly saw a black shadow standing by her bedside. She was so scared that she rolled over and jumped out of bed, just as the other person's voice came to her ears.

It was me.

Feng Lingxi heard the other party's voice, her brow furrowed.

"Host, you're not sleeping at three in the morning. You keep following me like this, what do you really want"

Last night, he appeared and told her about the Three Kings entering the capital to pay homage. What else could he possibly have to say today

He returned to Beijing.

Upon hearing this, Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow, seeming a little surprised.

"Who"

In the darkness, Feng Lingxi couldn't see his face clearly, but at least she had heard his voice.

"Dugu City."

Feng Ling's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Where is he now"

The shadow paused, then walked towards the door. Feng Lingxi hurriedly chased after him and shouted, "Wait, explain what's going on!" said, "Do you want to go say goodbye to your mother""No."Wan'er opened her mouth without hesitation, her voice sweet and childish, with a hint of anger."My child, how are you just like your mother, s...
