u City carried Feng Lingxi back to his room and placed her on the bed before instructing Xiao Li, "Guard the Princess. This king will go out for a moment."Xiao Li responded and stayed in the princess'...Dugu Cheng thought Feng Lingxi wouldn't want to let Huangpu Qingyun leave, so he casually made up an excuse.

"It's a pity that I couldn't say goodbye to him."

Feng Lingxi glanced in the direction of the city gates, "Has he gone far yet Otherwise I…"

"It's too late."

Duguxing interrupted her thoughts. He knew about Huangfu Qinyun's feelings for Xi'er, and hearing that Xi'er wanted to see Huangfu Qinyun, Duguxing's heart ached. Naturally, he wouldn't allow her to see him.

Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes darkened, "Since that's the case, then let's do it next time."

"Xier, go back and pack up. We'll set off soon. This time when we return to the Yao Clan, our purpose isn't solely to obtain their treasures. The Jade Mother has a task for me, and you must follow my arrangements."

What's up

Shouldn't this Yao tribe matter be handled by someone else

How could Mother entrust him with this Could it be that there's something she's hiding from me

"My mother-in-law said you shouldn't know about this, and I won't tell you."

Then you won't be getting into bed tonight.

Feng Ling Xi's eyes turned cold, Du Gu Cheng hurriedly went to her side and said with a smile, "It's like this, the queen mother asked me to go back this time to deal with several traitors. She doesn't want your hands to be stained with blood, so she entrusted this matter to me."

Feng Lingxi let out a cold snort. Men are really something, aren't they Just now he said not to speak, but in the blink of an eye, for the sake of getting onto the bed, he changed his tune.

Dugu Cheng saw Feng Lingxi's anger, he grabbed her sleeve and coaxed in a gentle voice, "Are you angry"

When the wind howls, she doesn't speak. Dugu City coaxed again, "It was my mother who wouldn't let me say it, I told you all now didn't I If my mother finds out later, I'll have to be lectured again, Xier, don't be angry."

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng's wronged eyes, "You make sense. If it weren't for getting onto the bed, would you have told me"

"Of course I'd listen to Xier's words. When would this King ever disobey"

Looking at Du Gu Cheng's hopeful gaze, if I hadn't spent time with him, I wouldn't believe he could have such a doting side.

"I'll handle the Yao Clan myself. This time I went back to the Yao Clan, retrieved the treasure, and will act according to plan. Don't dare to go on a solo adventure behind my back, or else I won't let you off."

獨孤城急忙保證，風淩兮看著這樣子，雖然不知道他是不是真的會不在揹著自己做事，但是她心裡也會踏實一些。這段時間回來，獨孤城忙的事情很多，她知道，有很多事他不告訴她，就是怕她擔心，他的身上偶爾出現傷痕，他不說，她也並冇有多問，卻知道，他這段時間冇少遇見事。

Dugu Cheng held her in his arms, "When we return, we'll bid farewell to my mother. If your mother wishes to return to the Yao Clan, take her back. If not, let her stay here."

"I have to take Feather Ink."

Feng Lingxi raised her eyes to look at Dugu City, "Yu Mo is still young. I'm not very reassured leaving him here. Empress Cen already knows that his mother is alive. If Yu Mo stays here, he will only add burden to his mother and me. I'll take him with me. He can martial arts. Following me, he won't trouble you."

"How can Yu Mo even call this king's brother-in-law, this king's nephew Naturally, this king will take care of him. Don't worry, this king will arrange an identity for him so he can follow us without being discovered."

Feng Yu Mo is Feng Ao Tian's child raised outside. Very few people know his identity and appearance. Staying by their side would indeed be safer.

"You wouldn't even eat his jealousy, would you"

Feng Lingxi asked, voicing the confusion in her heart. Du Gu Cheng raised an eyebrow, looking at Feng Lingxi's questioning gaze, "Would this king be so petty"

"Isn't that so Don't think I don't know you said Huangfu Qingyun left because of jealousy, afraid I would meet him and say something that would upset you."

獨孤城 was pierced by her words, swallowed his saliva, and coughed lightly.

"Xi'er, this king truly didn't mean it that way, I just couldn't catch up."

"It doesn't matter, anyway. When I get to Linxi County, I want to find him, and it won't be difficult."

"No!"

Dugu Cheng stopped her without hesitation. Looking at Xi'er's furrowed brows, Dugu Cheng said in a deep voice, "Think about it, he has finally let go of his feelings for you. How can you go find him and make him have feelings for you again"

"I just wanted to have a few things clear with him. Dugu City, if he truly still has feelings for me, he wouldn't have let me go to you."

Feng Lingxi explained, “Huangfu Qingyun is a smart person. He helped us so much this time, we should thank him properly.”

"I know, I've already thanked him. When he finds a wife for the Crown Prince, I will certainly give him a grand gift as a token of my gratitude."

"The vinegar jar."

Feng Lingxi was both angry and amused. She knew that Dugu Cheng was being intentional, but there was nothing she could do about it.

"Here we are."

Dugu Cheng dismounted his carriage and just as he entered the mansion, he saw Huangpu Qingyun waiting for him. Feng Lingxi was surprised to see him, and Dugu Cheng's face wasn't much better either.

"Acheng, Xier, I have something to say to both of you."

Huangfu Qingyun's expression was grave. Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng exchanged glances before joining him in the front hall. He had Ye Xi guard the entrance, then spoke, "The emperor sent word that a strange thing happened in the capital of Huashang. Someone claiming to be you has been practicing medicine there, but instead of saving lives, they are using poison to kill people. The emperor has dispatched people to investigate, but there have been no results, and the number of victims continues to grow."

"Impersonating me to poison people"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "Have I offended anyone on the side of Huang Xia"

Dugu Cheng looked at her, Feng Ling Xi shook her head, “After I lost my memory, it was Huangfu Qingyun who saved me. After recovering my memory, you both followed me, you should know that I haven't offended anyone.”

"Could it be that someone deliberately framed you, or why would they use your name to poison people everywhere"

Feng Lingxi frowned, she really couldn't figure out who would want to harm her like this.

"I came back just to tell you this, knowing you're about to return to the Yao tribe. I want to remind you to be careful on your way back."

"Are you worried someone will assassinate me"

Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow. She thought this person who used her name to poison others was most likely connected to Empress Cen. Otherwise, who would frame her like this

But if it were Empress Cen, what was her purpose

To tell the people of Huangxia Dynasty that she, Feng Lingxi, takes pleasure in poisoning others

Huangfu Qingyun saw her frown and nodded, "It's not impossible."

During this time, the things she did after returning to Beijing have offended many people who want her dead. The wind and rain are uncertain, as are Feng Yu Xi and Feng Linglong. Even the General's Mansion is possibly involved. What's more, she is still the Holy Maiden of Yao Clan. Besides Yao Feifei, there haven't been any other captured traitors from the Yao Clan, so it's highly likely they are connected.

"My lord, something has happened."

Ye Xi hurried forward, leaned into Dugu City's ear and whispered a few words. Dugu City's face instantly sank.ut you, how did you get hurt"Speaking of this, Ye Xi hurriedly sat up and excitedly grabbed the King's arm, "Your Highness, it was the Third Prince, his men injured my subordinates. Yesterday night, m...
