Chapter 1270: War Drums Begin
r."Seeing the dark circles under Feng Ling Xi's eyes, Empress Cen felt a twinge of sympathy in her heart. After all, she had been with her for these past few days. The child was kind-hearted, and this..."Did Gu Li just say she's marrying you now"
Feng Ling Xi asked in confusion, Feng Yu Mo hurriedly replied, “No, she didn’t say anything.”
"Why are you nervous She hasn't even said she wants to marry you. It's normal for girls her age to have crushes. The feelings she has for you now are just because she finds you new and interesting. Who can guarantee that those feelings will last When she gets a little older, she might not find you as interesting anymore. At that point, she might not even want to be with you. So don't overthink it."
"Sister, are all girls this fickle"
Feng Yu Mo Xin felt a lump in his throat, he was flustered after being scolded by his sister.
Feng Lingxi furrowed her brows, "Didn't you say you didn't want to talk about relationships right now" She was trying to comfort him, and what she said made sense. Of course, the people here seemed like an exception.
This girl cares a lot about traditional festivals and once she sets her mind to something, she sticks with it for life.
She couldn't guarantee that Gulli really had her eyes on Feng Yumo.
"Sister, actually I…"
Feng Yu Mo's words to the edge of his mouth were swallowed back. How should he say this...
This is really hard to put into words, he himself doesn't even know what's going on.
"You're young now, these things are not good to think about. Just leave it to time, time will tell you the answer."
Wind Ling held him down and helped him lie down, "Take the medicine first, and recover from your injuries well."
Feng Yu Mo took the medicine and drank it, but she couldn't feel happy at all.
"Where's Guli Why haven't I seen her"
Feng Lingxi asked, "On a normal day, Gu Li would be the first to see Feng Yu Mo. Why isn't she here today"
When I arrived, I saw her leaving the house.
"Setting out"
Feng Yu Mo, lying on the bed, was getting restless. She looked at Feng Yi Xuan.
"Is she alone"
Feng Yixuan nodded, looking at Feng Yixuan's nervous expression, and comforted, "It might be that going outside for some fresh air will help. Don't overthink it."
Feng Yu Mo's eyes were downcast. Was she leaving Had his attitude made her angry
"I'm going to take a look. You rest for a while after taking your medicine."
Feng Yu Mo responded, lying on the couch but unable to sleep.
Feng Yixuan put the bowl away and, looking at Feng Yumò's expression, said lightly, "Yumò, if you really don't like her, just tell her clearly. There's no need to worry about this matter. Gu Li is not from the Central Plains, she's very carefree. You tell her, she won't be angry, and you don't have to suffer in silence."
"I'm not upset."
Feng Yu Mo looked at Feng Yi Xuan, spoke, but with a hint of irritability, feeling that her tone was not very kind, apologetically said, "I didn't mean what I said, I'm just in a bad mood."
"Is it because of Gulli"
Fei Yu nodded, "I don't know if she should be punished."
According to military regulations, she should be punished, but she is not a soldier in the army, so it's understandable not to punish her.
Feng Yixuan's words spoke to Feng Yumok's thoughts. He was troubled by this very thing. This Gu Li wasn't a soldier in the army, nor was she his subordinate. She had only been in the camp for a few months, but she knew the rules of the army. He had warned her beforehand, and since she knowingly disobeyed, he felt so conflicted.
Feng Yixuan patted his shoulder.
"Think about it yourself, there are some things I can't help you with."
Feng Yi Xuan got up and left. Feng Yu Mo clearly cared about the young lady, but he hadn't figured out his own feelings yet. However, this kind of thing, he couldn't help him. Just wait for him to think it over properly.
Feng Lingxi came out of Feng Yu Mo's courtyard, and she asked the maidservants and servants along the way, but no one had seen Gu Li. Then she walked towards the gate, looking at the pedestrians on the street, her eyes full of worry.
"Did you see Guli go out"
The guard hastily replied, "To the Princess Consort, Guli went riding away."
"Which way"
"The direction of the barracks."
Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli beside her, her face changing slightly, "She wouldn't really go to the military camp to receive punishment, would she"
"Your Highness, shall we go visit the military camp"
Feng Lingxi nodded, "Let's go take a look. She is after all Yu Mo's savior. Her injuries haven't healed yet, and if this is truly a punishment, adding new wounds to old ones, it might take a long time for her to recover."
"This servant will prepare the horses."
Feng Lingxi nodded, instructing the guards to inform Feng Yixuan, and then went to the military camp with Xiao Li.
As soon as the two left the palace, they saw Lu Nian. Seeing Feng Lingxi, Lu Nian's face immediately broke into a wide smile.
"Sister."
Upon hearing this title, Feng Lingxi frowned, quite uncomfortable with it. The discomfort in her eyes made Lu Nian hurriedly change his words, "Your Highness, where are you going"
"To the military camp, how come Young Master Lu is here again"
Li Nian was surprisingly unfazed. He stayed in Linxi County, spending his days leisurely wandering between the palace and inns, never seeming to tire of it.
"I'm coming to the palace to see if there's anything I can do to help."
Seeing Feng Lingxi about to leave, Lu Nian asked, "Is something wrong again Do you need my help"
"No need, it's just a small thing, I can handle it myself."
Lu Nian nodded, "Alright, then I won't bother you. Be careful."
After finishing her words, she waved goodbye to Feng Lingxi, not at all bothered, even giving them a path. Feng Lingxi originally thought that Lu Nian would stop her or go to the barracks with her, but it was an exception this time.
Feng Lingxi rode away on horseback, and Lu Nian quickly found a horse to chase after him.
Outside the military camp, Gu Li knelt outside the tent, her face pale. Inside the tent, General Li had a splitting headache. What was this It was too much to bear.
"Go and inform the Prince quickly, find a way to get her out of here. How could we possibly subject her to military law How could I explain this to Yu Mo"
This girl saved Yu Mo's life, how could he possibly harm her.
"Reporting General, the Lord has gone to inspect the eastern front and is not in the camp."
"Headache."
General Li rubbed his temples, who could save him.
"General Li, Gulina willingly takes the blame and accepts punishment. Please punish me as you see fit, General Li."
Gu Li's voice came again, and General Li helplessly walked out. He saw Gu Li kneeling before him, and stepped forward to help her up. However, Gu Li insisted and refused to get up.
"General Li, please have your military law handle me."
"This won't do, if you want to receive the penalty, go find Yu Mo. You're finding me Isn't this putting me in a difficult position"
Gu Li looked at General Li, her expression was very embarrassed. If she could find Feng Yu Mo, she wouldn't come here to find General Li.
"He's not feeling well now, so he can't punish me."
"Then I'm even more helpless. Why don't you find the Queen instead, she's easier to deal with. You're really making things difficult for me."
General Li wanted to help Guli up, but the girl refused to get up. General Li was so anxious that his head ached.
"Guli, you saved Yumo. I truly can't punish you. Besides, you aren't someone from the military camp, and I have no right to sentence you. You should go find Yumo to receive your punishment."
General Li grabbed Guli up, but she remained kneeling on the ground, refusing to get up, which worried General Li greatly. you don't urge me to get married just for my sake.""I'm sorry."Feng Lingxi apologized, "Then pretend I never said anything just now. I just think you shouldn't waste your time on me.""I know."Huangpu...
