ade Shutai laugh."Feng Lingxi pretended to be a dutiful daughter-in-law. The eunuchs and maids at the gate were tidying up the fallen bird's nests and saw Feng Lingxi's actions."Send for the imperial..."This is really interesting. This Su Wangfei and Dugu Xiu, this Su Wang is truly ruthless. It seems she's just a pawn. I reckon it won't be long before news of Su Wangfei's suicide spreads."

Feng Lingxi narrowed her eyes, "Xiao Li, pack up, let's go down the mountain."

"Your Majesty, will you intervene"

"There's nothing to worry about. This Yuan Dynasty has just begun. We only need to focus on our own affairs and ignore the rest." Dugu Su made her move. Empress Cen and Dugu Xiu would be finished soon enough.

She still had to discuss with Dugu City what to do next.

Recently, small countries near the border have been restless, and even tribes have made a comeback. Feng Lingxi wondered if this had anything to do with Dugu Su.

Throughout the entire Yuan Dynasty, besides Dugu Su, there wasn't anyone else capable of such things.

Dugu City, upon receiving news from the court, immediately instructed General Li to send a report of recent battle developments to the capital. At the very least, they needed the court to know what he was currently preoccupied with.

Since leaving the capital, Empress Cen had told him to make amends with Feng Lingxi and hadn't sent any more messages. Dugu Cheng knew that Empress Cen was most likely preoccupied with matters in the capital and unable to spare any attention elsewhere.

Feng Lingxi was descending the mountain when she hadn't even reached Linxi County, she saw a group of people chasing after a young girl. The girl was about fifteen or sixteen years old, dishevelled and dirt-streaked, running in panic. Seeing her carriage, she ran towards them, shouting as she ran.

"Help!"

Feng Ling Xi's carriage was forced to stop, the young girl near her carriage shouted loudly, "Help!"

Xiao Li jumped down from the carriage and stopped those people. The young girl hurriedly ran behind Xiao Li, nervously looking at the group of burly men in front of her.

"What wrong did this girl do"

"Just mind your own business and hand her over, or else we won't be so polite."

The big Han man at the front was grimacing, trying to scare Xiao Li.

Xiao Li turned around to look at the girl behind her, looking at her dirty appearance, "Why did they catch you"

The young girl knelt down with a thump, grabbing onto Xiaoli's pant leg. "Miss, please have mercy and save me! I failed to find a suitable match and was taken back to their house to be a maidservant. I barely managed to escape, but they are going to capture me again."

"Which prefecture"

The young girl was taken aback, looking at Xiaoli, "It's from Luo Mansion in Linxi County."

"The Luo Mansion"

Xiao Li frowned, is there such a family in Linxi County

Bullying men and intimidating women, this is not in line with the style of Linxi County.

"You better not interfere with our affairs in the Luo Mansion. Do you know what position our Luo Mansion holds in Linxi County If you offend our master, you won't be able to get away with it."

"Is the Luo Mansion this arrogant"

Xiao Li glanced inside the carriage, curling her lips into a sneer. "I'd like to see just how capable this Lord Luo really is. This Linxi County has the Fourth Prince residing here; could he possibly allow your insignificant Luo family to be so brazen"

"You don't even know this, Miss Luo from our family is about to marry the Fourth Prince as a concubine. In Xincun County, our Luo family holds some sway."

"Oh!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Lingxi lifted the curtain of the carriage and her beautiful eyes swept over the crowd before her.

"When did this happen I have no idea."

"Who do you think you are to know about this"

That person's attitude was extremely arrogant, not taking Feng Lingxi seriously at all. In their eyes, Feng Lingxi and Xiao Li were nothing more than the wives of some family, incomparable to the Luo family.

"Audacity! To speak to the Fourth Princess like this."

Xiao Li angrily rebuked, the leader and his men looked at Xiao Li and Feng Lingxi, "It's her, still the Fourth Princess Who doesn't know that this Fourth Princess is the Saint Lord of Yaozu She always has countless maidservants following her. Just you two, where did you come from to impersonate the Fourth Princess here"

Xiaoli was so angry that her face turned green.

"Take them all back and keep a close watch on them."

Feng Lingxi's cold eyes swept over the crowd, and with a faint command, those people laughed heartily. But the next second, seeing a woman emerge from the shadows, their faces gradually paled.

"Lord."

Feng Lingxi nodded, walked to Xiao Li's face, looked at the disheveled woman, "Take her back to the county government."

That girl looked at Feng Lingxi with a hint of fear in her eyes. Xiaoli whispered, “Don’t be afraid, Your Highness isn’t actually fierce, she just always looks cold.”

"Thank you, Fourth Princess, for saving my life."

Feng Lingxi responded and got on the carriage, continuing back to the city.

Back at the county office, Feng Lingxi glanced at the young girl beside Xiaoli.

"Take her down to change her clothes and come see me later."

Xiao Li responded and took the young girl away. Feng Ling Xi changed her clothes and saw Shu Taifei bringing Wan'er to find her. Upon learning that she had returned home, Wan'er started clamoring to see Feng Ling Xi. Thus, Shu Taifei was naturally the happiest.

"Mother Empress."

Seeing Feng Ling Xi's slender and thin frame, the Empress Dowager felt a pang of sympathy in her eyes.

"Xi'er, it's only been ten days since we last saw each other, how have you lost so much weight"

Feng Lingxi smiled faintly, supporting Shutai to sit down, "Mother Empress, there are many things in the Yao clan to be busy with every day. Although I am a little tired, my body is very healthy."

"It's fine, Wǎn'er knows you're back and insisted on coming to see you."

Feng Lingxi looked at Wan'er, and Wan'er looked back at Feng Lingxi. She didn't call her name, just stared at her like that.

He has grown taller and his temper has gotten worse too.

Feng Lingxi didn't care whether Wan'er called her or not. This Wan'er's temperament, I'm afraid she still has to continue bickering with her.

"Juan'er, call mother quickly."

The Empress Dowager urged, Wan'er looked at Feng Lingxi, for half a breath she couldn't utter a sound.

"Your Highness, someone has arrived."

Xiao Li's voice came, Feng Ling Xi looked at Shu Tai Fei, "Mother concubine, I still have some things to deal with, you bring her back first, I will go see you after I finish."

As Empress Dowager Shu was about to speak, Feng Lingxi had already walked far away.

Wan'er walked away, her figure swaying in the wind. Her eyes were filled with reluctance, but she couldn't bring herself to speak.

"In that case, your mother will definitely treat you as nothing from now on."

"Grandma."

Wan'er opened her arms, "Hug me."

Shu Taifei held Wan'er in her arms and softly coaxed, "After all, she is your biological mother. Don't always be angry with her. Your mother's temperament, if you keep doing this, she really might be able to ignore you as her daughter."

Feng Lingxi entertained the rescued girl in the courtyard. Looking at the fear on her face, she looked her up and down.

"You say you're here to pay a visit, but I don't know who your relatives are. Tell me, perhaps I can be of help."

The young girl's eyes were downcast as she looked at Feng Lingxi, "My name is Ye Shuang. I am from Liangzhou and have come here specifically to look for the Fourth Prince."

Feng Lingxi heard this and couldn't help but smile.

"Well, you seem to be quite honest. I thought you'd come up with a bunch of excuses to explain yourself."

Feng Lingxi's words caused Ye Shuang's eyes to tremble slightly. Xiao Li hurriedly stepped back, eyeing this Ye Shuang with caution.omorrow."Feng Lingxi served the noble concubine to bed and then left her room, a worried expression on her face.Is the throne really that alluringShe still thought that Shutai had not cared much about...
