Chapter 1107: Ghost Saint Country 68
hope the princess will cooperate!""I wonder how Madam Zhao intends to verify my innocence Will she strip me naked and inspect my body, or will she bring a doctor to examine me""Your Highness, of cours..."Who else could it be"
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi's furrowed brows and said, "This matter is something this king can handle himself. Don't get involved. Just wait for Feng Aotien to find you."
"What does he really want to do If he truly wants to bring honor to his family, wouldn't it be better to treat Yu Mo well Why must he help the wicked and become a sinner"
Feng Lingxi gets angry whenever Feng Aotiantian is mentioned, she really doesn't understand this man. What does he want by following them
"If only I understood what he wanted, things would be easier."
Knowing that Xi'er was angry, he was also angry. He hadn't slept well these days, all thanks to Feng Aotien stirring things up. This man is old enough to know better and calm down.
"If you don't give him military power, will he just not leave"
He doesn't seem to have any intention of leaving at all. This time the emperor sent him here specifically to take back his military command, but he didn't give me the imperial decree this time, and I don't know what other purposes he might have.
Thinking of Feng Aotian and his words, Dugu City's eyes flashed a cold light, but it quickly disappeared.
"Xi'er, have you ever thought about meeting your biological father"
"No."
Feng Lingxi didn't hesitate at all. She wasn't really Feng Lingxi; the original owner of this body had nothing to do with her. Who her biological father was didn't matter to her. With such a complicated family background and mother, she was already fed up. If another father appeared and expected her to do things for him, wouldn't she be the one who lost out It would be better not to know anything, to have nothing to do with it.
Dugu Cheng heard this and secretly let out a sigh of relief.
"Luo Li arrived at the Yuan Dynasty, Mo Bing came with her."
Autumn watched Feng Lingxi, "Be more careful yourself."
"If you really care about me, why don't you help me figure out what kind of identity Mo Bing is using to cause trouble for me"
Feng Lingxi casually said something, but to her surprise, Qiu'er actually agreed.
"Alright, I'll tell you when I find out." Qiu'er finished speaking, stood up, and bowed to them. "I'm going now. When Shangguan Huan returns, tell him that I'm fine and safe. Tell him to follow you. I'll come back when I have time."
After Qiu'er finished speaking, she left. Feng Lingxi wanted to stop her, but knowing she couldn't hold her back, after struggling for a while, she gave up.
Du Gu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's struggling eyes, "Why don't you stop her She seems to know quite a bit."
"If Shangguan Huan were here, he wouldn't stop Qiuer from pursuing the truth further. Those who can hold onto a person cannot hold onto their heart. There's no need for that. As for you, if you can't sleep, why not go back to the mansion and see your mother She'll definitely be furious today."
"Xi'er, will you come with me"
Feng Lingxi wanted to say no, but when she thought of those women and the need to deal with them quickly, she nodded.
"Let's go together. Those women have problems, they need to be dealt with properly. If they were sent by Xin Shui, why did they place so many women around the Empress Dowager What is their purpose We have to be on guard."
Qinghe was arranged by Xinshui. No matter what Xinshui's purpose was, whether to test her or give her a taste of things to come, what she needed to do now was to clean up the threats around her.
“This person’s way of doing things is quite sly. If they were here for Qiu’er, they wouldn't arrange so many people in front of the Empress Dowager. With four dead already, it must be that they angered her. I think it would be safer if we lived with the Empress Dowager.”
Leaving his mother alone, he was truly worried. But thinking of his mother's attitude towards Xi'er, Duguo Cheng felt a headache coming on.
When mentioning living with Shu Taifei, Feng Lingxi's face stiffened slightly. Thinking of all the dissatisfaction and nitpicking Shu Taifei had towards her, she felt uncomfortable all over.
But thinking about it, Shutai's current situation, for fear of worrying Dugu City, she had to endure it.
Then, let's bring her here. She can live at the Yao Clan's main residence from now on.
This place is relatively safer, the Yao people, as long as she speaks, they wouldn't dare to refuse. With the protection of the Yao people, it would be much safer.
"Can the Yao people agree to let Mother Empress move in"
Dugu Cheng knew that this empress dowager's attitude made the Yao clan people unhappy. The empress dowager's temper, once she argued with Xi'er, would certainly be restless.
"You're afraid I'll bully her, aren't you"
Feng Lingxi walked up to Du Gucheng's face, her beautiful eyes swept over Du Gucheng's handsome face, seeing his helplessness, she pouted, "She knows you owe me money now, doesn't she Let her stay here, she will be more obedient, at least a little bit afraid. I'll see if I can find a way to restore her memory. This can't go on forever."
"Poor thing."
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi's eyes, seeing the forbearance within them. He took her hand. Feng Lingxi glanced at him, "It's not that I feel wronged, it's just that I'm afraid of doing poorly and making Mother even more dislike me, causing you to be difficult."
The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been a headache for men since ancient times, whether as a filial son or a husband, it is very difficult. Anyway, wanting to keep things balanced is especially hard. Feng Lingxi didn't want to make Dugu Cheng feel embarrassed.
"Xier, your mother's attitude towards you is a bit prejudiced. Xier doesn't mind it and is content with things as they are now."
Feng Lingxi nodded, holding Dugu Cheng's hand, and said softly, "To be honest, my mother is really like those troublesome mothers-in-law in the deep boudoir right now."
Dugu Cheng responded, "Let's go, and meet your troublesome mother-in-law."
Feng Lingxi responded with a smile, her face radiant. She couldn't remember when she had last held Dugu City's hand like this. Holding hands, although her mother didn't like her, Dugu City was good to her.
Dugu Cheng tightened his grip on Feng Ling Xi's hand, his eyes sweeping over the smile on her face, the corners of his lips slightly lifting. This little girl, just like that, could smile so happily. He really hadn't spent enough time with her lately.
Once he's finished with everything, he'll definitely make time to be with her and make up for his absence during this time.
When the two returned to the county government office, Empress Dowager Shu saw them and her face darkened.
"Mother."
Shutai Fei's face was displeased, she did not even look at them.
"What brings you here, anyway You've got a wife now and forgotten your mother. My life or death doesn't concern you."
Dugu Cheng walked before Shu Taifei and knelt down. Shu Taifei's expression stiffened, and she stepped forward to pull him up.
"What are you doing When did I ever let you kneel"
"Mother, I've caused you so much suffering."
Shu Taifei let out a cold snort, and put on an act of feigned indifference again. With Feng Lingxi around, she couldn't let her see her current shabby appearance.
If you truly still consider me your Imperial Consort, then listen to me and divorce her.
Shu Taifei mentioned again about the matter of Huifeng Lingxi's marriage, and Huifeng Lingxi frowned, "Shu Taifei, my marriage to Dugu Cheng was bestowed by the previous emperor. If I disagree, I cannot be excused. You are now suffering from amnesia, so I won't hold it against you. If you truly don't want your son, then I will take him back. He owes me so much money, and I need to get it back properly."
"What do you want to do!"
The Empress Dowager exploded instantly, rising to her feet and glaring furiously at Feng Lingxi.man, you shouldn't disregard your father's death. Feng Ling Xi poisoned your father, that was found by the imperial physicians...""Xi'er went to battle with this king, there is no evidence of her pres...
