s Royal Highness, the young lady is physically well. As for whether she remembers her past, I cannot judge at this time."Huangfu Qingyun hurriedly walked to Feng Lingxi's face, "Miss, what is your nam...Feng Lingxi's eyes turned red, she didn't want to express anything to him, she just wanted to find someone to talk to. These days, the things weighing on her heart were particularly unbearable.
"Alright, alright, don't act like I'm bullying you."
Lu Nian reached out to wipe the tears from Feng Ling Xi's eyes, "If you're really worried about him, then go see him."
"The lord specifically ordered that the princess not go. This bandit suppression is very dangerous, and the lord worries that if the princess goes with him, he won't be able to protect her."
Xiaoli explained to Feng Lingxi that seeing the princess's sorrowful appearance, she couldn't bear it.
Lu Nian glanced at Feng Lingxi, "No wonder she was so forlorn and melancholy. This is truly the first time I've seen her like this."
Feng Lingxi calmed her emotions, "I just told you about Feng Yu Mo's accident, didn't you ask where Dugu Cheng went"
She was just casually mentioning Yu Mo, Feng Ling Xi absolutely wouldn't admit that she had just shown a vulnerable side of a woman in front of Lu Nian. She didn't want Lu Nian to see this side of her.
"Alright, I get it."
A sly smile spread across Lu Nian's lips, the more she explained, the more it seemed she was trying to cover something up.
It was rare to see such a strong person like her show this vulnerable side in front of him. Lu Nian didn't want to embarrass her, so he planned to brush it off and avoid making things awkward later. He wouldn't let his family's young lady be treated unfairly.
"I'll have someone look into things for you and let you know. That way, you can rest assured."
"Are there still people here"
Feng Lingxi was surprised and asked, seeing Lu Nian raise an eyebrow, he explained, "What I mean is, do you have other people here"
Of course, or else how would I survive here.
Looking at Feng Ling Xi's shocked eyes, Lu Nian's smile widened, "Little sister, tell big brother the truth, do you need my help"
Feng Lingxi, hearing this, felt all her bottled-up grievances welling up inside her. Looking at Lu Nian's concerned eyes, she desperately wanted him to help her, but she couldn't. Even though Lu Nian was related to her by blood, she had promised her mother not to acknowledge the Lu family.
"No, I can handle it myself."
Lu Nian's eyes dimmed instantly. It seemed that this younger sister still couldn't accept him as her older brother, the one who carried his father's debts. Being the son of a debtor was truly a hardship for him.
"If you have anything you need help with, remember to ask me. Don't be shy with your own brother, or else you'll just have to cry alone."
Lu Nian's voice was doting, Feng Ling Xi nodded towards him, but her nose felt sour. The feeling of being loved by family was really good, but she didn't dare to accept it.
"Xiao Li said you asked to see me about something. What is it"
Feng Lingxi only then came to her senses, remembering the purpose of her visit. She hurriedly beckoned him to drink tea, her expression becoming serious.
“Quite a few things have happened at the Heavenly King's Mansion. First, Zhang You was tempted by lust and killed Tian Xiaomi's maid, Chun Feng Xia Ri. Then, there's this Nan Gong Hua Yun who came to me about treating his mother. I'm short-staffed at the moment and would like you to come visit my mansion more often. Would you be interested”
"Why did you suddenly ask me to come to your house"
Lu Nian was truly astonished by Feng Lingxi's request, but he was happy to oblige.
It's a great honor to be able to move around the Chen Wang Mansion. If this gets out, it will be quite prestigious. This is a good thing indeed.
"Didn't I just say we're short-staffed Are you going to agree or not"
Feng Lingxi felt guilty when asked by Lu Nian. In fact, she just wanted Lu Nian to visit more often. Recent events had made her uneasy, and she wanted someone close by her side, but she didn't know how to say it.
"I'm afraid I can't agree to that."
As soon as Lu Nian thought about the princess arriving tomorrow, his brow furrowed. "Tomorrow, the princess from Xigu Country will arrive. I have to greet her. If I move in, she'll probably want to stay at your residence too."
"She really came"
Feng Lingxi was suffering from a terrible headache. Was the princess of Xigu country just bored and looking for trouble She thought that once her anger passed, everything would be fine, but she didn't expect it to come back.
Lu Nian shrugged, "I also have a headache. I've said what needed to be said and tried to advise her, but she insisted on coming. I really have no other way."
"Then you better serve your princess."
She has enough to deal with already, and now she has a princess from the Xi Gu Kingdom on top of that. Her life is completely chaotic.
"Oh, my parents are really something else. I don't know what they have to brag about."
Lu Nian grumbled in discontent, "It's always me who comes to clean up their messes! Being their son is so difficult. Their demands are high, they have a ton of requests, and the best part The rewards are minimal."
Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian with sympathy. It was indeed tough for him to have such a wife.
"Sister, the princess of Xigu Kingdom came mainly for you. I know you don't want to have anything to do with her, but I still hope you can defeat her and make her willingly return to Xigu Kingdom so that she won't pester us endlessly here."
"I don't have time to entertain your princess from Xigu Kingdom. My household is short-staffed right now, I need to hire people, and I also have to go see Nan Gong Huayun's mother for her illness. Plus, Yu Mo is missing right now, how could I possibly have the mood to deal with her"
"If I help you find information about Feng Yu Mo, will you please help me deal with this princess" Lu Nian's eyes were full of pleading. Seeing Feng Ling Xi frown, she made a pleading gesture.
When it comes to Feng Yu Mo, Feng Ling Xi's heart aches. Although she doesn't want to deal with people from Xi Gu Country, in order to get news about Feng Yu Mo quickly, she still nodded her head. Besides, if they really came to find her, it wouldn't be as simple as whether she met them or not.
"Alright, that's settled. You find me Feather Ink, and I'll handle this Xi Gu princess for you. But let me be clear, if I offend the princess, the consequences are on you. You deal with them."
He said it himself, and since her status is lower than the princess', she will inevitably offend her. If there are any consequences later, naturally the Lu family will have to deal with them. After all, they brought this upon themselves by recruiting her.
"No problem, as long as you don't kill her, you can do whatever you want to her."
"Deal."
Lu Nian's face immediately lit up with a smile. Thinking about not having to entertain the princess herself, she felt as if a weight had been lifted. Everything would be fine; her younger sister was so smart, she would definitely handle this spoiled princess.
"Then you have news to tell me. I still have something to attend to here, so I won't keep you any longer."
"Let me go see Wan'er first. I'll stay for dinner tonight. I'll cook for you in a bit."
"You"
Feng Lingxi was taken aback when she heard Lu Nian say he was going to cook. Seeing him nod, his expression serious, she swallowed nervously, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Can you cook Don't poison me."
Lu Nian shrugged and smiled, "After you taste my cooking, I'm afraid you'll be clinging to me every day to have me cook for you."
Feng Lingxi's face was full of disbelief, but she didn't stop him. Right now, she needed to find some helpers. This mansion lacked a steward, and she was thinking, who would be most suitable for this position Someone she could trust and who could manage this manor in an orderly manner.ust go to the palace for a while, don't worry, nothing will happen."Shutai looked at her, the worry between her brows made Feng Lingxi smile reassuringly. Then she followed Feng Yuxi into the palace."...
