I am loyal to you with all my heart. It was for your safety that I kept my martial arts skills a secret.”Xiao Li knelt down, her face full of sincerity, “I know I have done wrong, please, Your Highnes...Xiao Li came back soon after she went out and said excitedly, “Miss, Master invited you to have a meal. He had a smile on his face when he spoke, perhaps because he was happy that you won the game against the Crown Prince.”

When it came to chess, Feng Ling Xi was upset. During the game, she had agreed that if she won, he would grant her one wish, but how could she have forgotten to mention it

I don't know if Dugu Yan will still remember the promise she made when they meet again next time.

"Xiao Li, has the Crown Prince ever visited our home before"

"Miss, before the noble guest arrived, the Second Madam never allowed you to go out, and Xiao Li also stayed by your side."

Feng Lingxi responded, seeming eager to meet him. It looked like this was their first meeting. She and Dugu Yan should be meeting for the first time.

"Little Li, can you do me a favor"

Feng Lingxi beckoned to her and gave her instructions. Xiaoli responded, and Feng Lingxi then took her to the dining hall for a meal.

Because Feng Aotian won against the Crown Prince in a game of Go, his attitude towards Feng Lingxi changed. Although this daughter spoke harshly, now that she had a good relationship with the Crown Prince, he might even stop their marriage. If it went through, Xi'er could possibly become the Crown Princess. He needed to reconsider his view of this daughter.

"Dad, we're all waiting for her alone You're being too biased, aren't you"

Feng Lingyu stared angrily at Feng Lingxi who was slowly walking over. Thinking about how she had stolen the spotlight from her in front of the Crown Prince and humiliated her, Feng Lingyu wished she could kill her. After she recovered, Feng Lingxi and her mother and sisters had all been suppressed by her. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

"Spirit Jade."

Liu kicked her, signaling her to be silent with her eyes. Feng Lingxi deeply pleased the Crown Prince, though it was still a few days before their wedding. Who knew if there would be any changes Now that she offended Liu, would she still have a position in the General's Mansion

Feng Aotian looked at his second daughter, his brow furrowed. "Lingyu, your fourth sister is already fine now, and she just finished talking with the Crown Prince. We might as well wait for her. The Crown Prince specifically told us to take good care of your fourth sister when he left."

Feng Lingyu clenched her fists, unwillingly staring at Feng Lingxi. Seeing her approach, she forcefully swallowed all her resentment.

Wind Ling Xi arrived at the dining hall and saw that everyone was already seated, waiting for her. She walked to her own position and said faintly, "Father, I made you wait. I wanted to have a quick bite in my room first. Thank you, Father, and Second Aunt, for your concern."

Looking at Feng Lingyu's indignant gaze, Feng Lingxi scanned the dishes on the table. Surprisingly, there were still some of the dishes she had been eating more of these past two days.

"Xier, in a few days you'll be getting married. After that, it will be hard to have the whole family eat together like this. Spend more time with your father these days."

Feng Aotiān's words of fatherly affection made Feng Lingxi feel a little uncomfortable. Suddenly being so kind to her, he must have been told something by Dugu Yan, right

Otherwise, she was thinking about having a chat with Dugu Yan, wanting her to get closer to the prince.

"Father said that in a few days it will be the wedding day. Father and the second aunt are busy preparing my dowry and wedding affairs, Xier is also helping."

"Xier, you don't need to worry about your dowry. Father will arrange everything properly for you. You are the eldest of our four sisters, and since you are marrying into a general's family, father won't treat you poorly."

Feng Lingyu, hearing her father's words, stabbed at the bowl with her chopsticks so hard they could have pierced right through it.

"Father, please rest assured. Once I marry off, I will find suitable husbands for my three elder sisters."

"Who wants you to find me a candidate I'm going to be the Crown Princess..."

Feng Lingyu's words had not been finished when Liu shi interrupted her. Feng Lingyu glared at her angrily, "Mother, why won't you let me speak Why is it that I can't say who I like She's already going to be the Fourth Princess, could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will marry her instead"

"The second sister is right, there's nothing wrong with speaking up about who you like. Wanting to be the Crown Princess is even better, it shows that the second sister has ambition and will bring glory to our House of Feng."

Feng Lingxi smiled, saying, "Looking at Feng Lingyu's proud appearance, she dares to say anything. This is much easier to deal with than Feng Linglong and Liu."

"Of course, after I become the Crown Princess, I will take good care of you."

Feng Lingyu was in a good mood and her attitude towards Feng Lingxi had improved considerably.

Liu shi watched Feng Ling Xi like this, her heart pounding. She didn't believe that Feng Ling Xi would be so kind.

"Xi'er thanks Second Sister."

Feng Aotien looked at his fourth daughter's composed and calm demeanor. Thinking that she was about to marry into the Fourth Prince's Manor, he couldn't help but sigh.

If the Fourth Prince hadn't met with misfortune, marrying into the Fourth Prince's Residence would have undoubtedly brought glory to General's Mansion. But now, going there would mean becoming a widow. Seeing her clear-headed appearance now, he felt a tinge of regret. Back when he bestowed the marriage, he shouldn't have been so hasty.

But things are unpredictable, who would have thought she would wake up after the marriage ceremony

After the meal, Feng Lingxi returned to her room, closed the door and began to prepare the antidote. Tomorrow was the day that person came to collect the antidote, she had to give it to him quickly and draw a clear line between them.

A dark shadow flipped into the room through the window, and seeing Feng Lingxi inside, he hurriedly said, "I came here to see if you had kept your promise to concoct a cure for me. I'm having a relapse today."

Feng Lingxi glanced at him and continued to prepare her antidote.

Alright, the antidote is ready. He can just take it and roll.

"In half an hour, the antidote will be ready. Take it and get out."

Du Gu Cheng hurriedly moved a stool and sat beside her, watching her prepare the medicine. Her skillful movements and knowledge of herbs shocked him. How could he not know she had such abilities

"These rumors going around outside are completely baseless. They say Miss Fourth is foolish and incapable of anything. I think they're all blind."

I don't know if people outside are blind or not, but if you dare to speak a word out of place, I guarantee you'll be both blind and mute.

A cold light flashed, Dugu City's figure flickered, with a needle between his fingertips, he looked at Feng Lingxi who was expressionless. Dugu City played with the embroidery needle, "Rest assured, I will keep my affairs with Miss Fourth in my belly, and I will never reveal half a word to the outside world, but why doesn't Miss Fourth change this embroidery needle to a silver one"

Feng Lingxi ignored him, silver needles aren't free, are they

Where is she getting money to buy silver needles now A sewing needle would be nice.

Seeing that she remained silent, Dugu Cheng began to search for a new topic of conversation.

"Fourth Miss, will we never see each other again"

Feng Lingxi put down the medicine in her hand and looked at him, "What do you mean"

Dugu Cheng wore a fearless expression. "Marrying that Fourth Prince is like being a widow. After all, women always have needs. Otherwise..."

Before he could finish his words, Feng Lingxi raised his foot and was about to strike. Dugu Cheng swiftly intercepted the attack, stopping his foot an inch below his hip, his forehead beaded with cold sweat.

"Get out after taking the medicine, we'll never see each other again!"

"It's really heartless."

Dugu Cheng looked at her icy face, "Are you really willing to marry and live a widow's life"g Lingxi stopped her, saying, "Empress Dowager, please calm down. These imperial physicians dare not prescribe medicine for you because they are afraid of the ingredients. If there's such a situation,...
