Chapter 706: Yao's Rebellion 76

ng Dugu Xiu's composed appearance, Feng Lingxi's eyes flashed with a trace of scheming. Dugu Cheng was right, this Dugu Xiu, driven to desperation, would definitely come looking for her."Sixth Prince,..."Aren't you worried about Li Wuyan's mother's situation I brought you here directly and let you stay here casually. Anyway, he wouldn't mind us."

Luo Li took the lead and walked in, Feng Ling Xi followed closely behind. The servants of Li Mansion saw Luo Li's arrival and did not show any strangeness, but greeted him respectfully, as if he were the master of this place.

"Is Li Wuyan staying here to spend the New Year with his mother"

"This is natural. Li Wu Yan is truly good to his mother, spending New Year's with her every year."

Luo Li led Feng Ling Xi to the courtyard on the west side and said to her, “You can stay here these few days. My room is opposite yours. You can find me if you have anything.”

"You're quite familiar with this place, you even have your own yard."

Feng Lingxi surveyed the surroundings, finding a tranquil and picturesque environment.

"This is what I bought, where did Li Wu Yan get the money from"

"Could this be the Yao Clan's settlement"

Luoli shook her head, "This is my resting place. If I've arrived here, I'll rest here. It's not bad."

Feng Lingxi understood. Luoli must have come to help Li Wuyan. It's true, Li Wuyan lives in the mountains, where would he get the money to buy such a large mansion for his mother On the other hand, Luoli, with his noble status, could easily afford not only this mansion but even the entire Linxi County.

"Your Highness, this servant will go to the Lord's Mansion later to find Young Master Yu Mo for you. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth will take good care of Your Highness."

Xiao Li reminded him, once everything was arranged, she would go to the City Lord's Mansion, maybe she could even find out something.

Be careful on the road.

Feng Lingxi instructed, after Xiao Li left, she specially let Yingliu follow and secretly protect her safety.

"She's just a maid. Why all this protection for her"

Luo Li didn't understand, so she arranged for her to stay here because Feng Ling Xi didn't want to go back. It was just that Feng Ling Xi's attitude towards her maidservant Xiao Li was so good that it made him, the chieftain, envious.

"Xiao Li is not a maid in my heart, she is my sister."

Feng Lingxi looked at Luoli, "I'm just worried that she might be ambushed on her way to the City Lord's Mansion."

"Not really."

Luoli's words prompted Feng Lingxi to reply, but she didn't speak. Instead, she took out a scroll and continued reading. Seeing this, Luoli opened her mouth and said, "Then you rest first. I'll come find you when Li Wuyan returns."

Wind Ling xi Ying Sheng, Lu Li leaving, she just raised her eyes, narrowed her eyes, watching his leaving back, falling into contemplation.

It wasn't that she suspected Luoli of anything, but she felt there were some strange and unexplainable things about her. This Luoli truly made her suspicious.

All she wanted now was for him to truly be indifferent to her, otherwise her situation would only worsen.

One should not have the heart to harm others, but one must be prepared to defend oneself. She is truly afraid now.

In the evening, Xiaoli came back with Feng Yumò following behind her. Seeing Feng Lingxi, Feng Yumò was very excited and immediately grabbed her hand, looking her over carefully. Seeing that her sister had lost weight again, he looked heartbroken.

"Sister, you've lost so much weight. Is being the Saint Master of the Yao Clan very tiring"

Feng Lingxi glanced at Xiao Li, "Didn't she tell you"

"I dare not speak out of turn."

Xiao Li looked at the smile on the Queen's face. Young Master Yu Mo was still better. When he came, she could see the Queen's bright smile. She really hoped that the Queen could smile more often.

"Sister, Xiaoli didn't tell me anything, that's why I'm worried about you."

Feng Yu Mo's eyes were full of worry, in just half a month, this person had thinned out.

Feng Ling's face was graced with a soft smile as she met Yu Mo's concerned gaze. "These past few weeks have been busy with matters concerning the Yao clan, and it has taken its toll," she said, "But now that everything is settled, I can finally eat more and regain some weight."

"This servant will go prepare the evening meal right away, and later will ensure the Princess eats plenty."

Xiao Li politely stepped back, leaving this place to her siblings.

She knew that besides the King, only Young Master Yumo could make the Princess happy.

"Yu Mo, how are your eyes Are there any uncomfortable places Later I'll have Li Wu Yan take a look at them again."

"Doctor Li treats me much better than you do. He's come to the house a few times this past while and my eyes are all better now." Feng Yumo's tone held a hint of complaint, but only he knew that this complaint was meant to catch his sister's attention and make her care about him.

He had heard about what happened recently, and he had also asked his brother-in-law. He knew about his sister's miscarriage, but he didn't want his sister to know that he knew. He didn't want her to be sad.

Feng Lingxi heard that Li Wuyan went to help Yu Mo see his eyes, and she felt grateful to Li Wuyan in her heart, but also ashamed.

He treated his own mother without any regard, but he helped to heal Yu Mo's eyes and constantly checked on him. This kindness must be repaid well.

"Yumo, I'm so sorry. I've just been incredibly busy lately, so..."

"Sister, I don't blame you. I'm just worried about you. You're going to the Yao Clan for half a month, and if something happens, you won't tell me. Now that I see you have lost so much weight, I can't help but feel sorry for you."

Feng Yu Mo interrupted her, grabbing Feng Ling Xi's hand and sitting down, his eyes full of worry.

"Your brother-in-law has been busy conquering surrounding small countries and tribes lately, so he hasn't had time to spend with you. Don't blame him for that."

"Was it him who started the fire"

Speaking of Dugu City, Feng Lingxi's eyes were complicated, but she still asked the question that troubled her heart.

"That's not entirely true. On the day of your coronation, your brother-in-law led his troops to repel those tribal armies. Otherwise, they would have attacked the Yao tribe, and you would have been in danger. Afterward, the various tribes were still restless. In addition, the surrounding small kingdoms seemed to have heard rumors that our food supplies were dwindling and decided to attack. General Li received the news and quickly organized his troops before leading them out on an expedition."

Wind Feather Ink's eyes were fixed on his elder sister. Seeing her expression was calm and collected, not seeming too nervous about her brother-in-law, he continued, "Brother-in-law doesn't want them to attack here. This Linxi County is our home, we can't let them attack here."

Feng Lingxi nodded, "I know, he is the war god, and I believe he will return in triumph soon."

“I can only wait for him to come back. My brother-in-law won't let me follow, saying that my eyes have just recovered and can't have the slightest mishap. I can only stay here to watch over Linxi County for him and protect the safety of the people.”

"Then just do your job well, don't disappoint him."

Feng Lingxi admonished, looking at the fading youthful air on Yu Mo's face, Feng Lingxi felt heartbroken for her younger brother. He was only fifteen, yet he had to bear burdens that didn't belong to him.

To Yu Mo, she was his dearest relative in this world.

"Yu Mo, from now on, you must learn well from Dugu Cheng. Remember what you said before, you want to be a great general and make Feng Aotian look up to you."

When it came to Feng Aotien, Feng Yumò's eyes dimmed slightly. Suddenly remembering something, she hurriedly said, "Oh right, I got news that Empress Cen sent the Sixth Prince to pick you up back to the capital. The news of your ascension as the Saint Lord has reached the palace."er promise."Shutai's gaze fell on Feng Lingxi's covered neckline. Her eyes seemed to see through the traces under her collar, causing Feng Lingxi's face to flush uncontrollably."Thank you, mother."Shu...
