Chapter 283: Seizing Power 38
is Saintess seems to have noticed something here. This forbidden zone... it's fine during the day, but at night, no one dares to come here. Especially after Yao Wan'ying fell from the cliff, everyone..."This…"
Dugu Cheng raised an eyebrow, "What, are you still wanting to see me bathe"
The maidservant hurriedly apologized, "Master Chen, please forgive me. I am sent by Elder Yao to serve both of you masters. I truly cannot refuse."
"Get out."
Dugu Cheng's tone was impatient. The two maids glanced at each other, put down their clothes and hurriedly retreated.
"Elder Yao is really staring intently." Ye Xi clutched her clothes and inspected them, sniffing them at her nose. Her face changed slightly, and she hurriedly said to Dugu City, "There's something wrong with the clothes."
Du Gucheng gave Ye Xi a wink, and Ye Xi walked to the table beside him and dipped his brush in ink.
After Feng Fu finished bathing and changing, she sent someone to invite Dugu Cheng and Ye Xi over for a meal. Although she had returned to Yaozu after a long absence and it seemed the same as before, things had changed. For example, Elder Yao, since her return, had watched her every move, treating her like a guest rather than one of their own.
Dugu Cheng and Ye Xi changed into their own clothes and came before Feng Fu Ren. Looking at Feng Fu Ren in a Yao tribe outfit, she had a few more exotic flavors. She didn't seem as detached from the world as before, but instead, she had a few more domineering vibes.
Yao Qing looked at Dugu City and Ye Xi, who were still wearing the same clothes, with some puzzlement.
"Have a seat."
Feng Fu-ren gestured for Dugu Cheng and Ye Xi to take their seats, and said to Yao Qing, “Elder Yao, come sit down and have a meal with us.”
Yao Qing respectfully said, "My subordinate wouldn't dare to share a meal with the Holy Lord. The Holy Lord is hosting distinguished guests, so my subordinates will send people to perform dances and music for entertainment."
"No need, I've grown accustomed to a simple life these years. Elder Yao, you should head back and rest earlier. We have the blessing ceremony tomorrow."
Yao Qing responded and stepped back.
Wind Lady greeted Dugu City, while Ye Xi watched the maidservants standing on both sides attending to him. The Saint Lord of the Yao Clan seemed just like the king of a tribe, he was treated really well.
"Madam, is there a place where we can speak"
The wind madam looked at the maidservant attending her and said, "I have already changed these maidservants, they are all mine. If you want to say anything, just speak freely."
Du Gucheng was a little surprised, he didn't expect her to be so fast. It seemed that the Yao Clan hadn't fallen completely into the hands of the Great Elder yet.
“I’ve already told the High Elder that Night Xi and I will be leaving the Yao Clan tomorrow.”
"What did he say"
Du Gucheng looked at those maidservants, "He told us that this Fengyuan was a place for the family of His Holiness to live. He was surprised by your arrangements for us."
A hint of coldness flashed in Feng Fu's eyes, "Then you should do things your way tomorrow. You go out of Yaozu first, and I will send someone to meet up with you on the way back. I want to see what Yao Qing has planned this time."
"My lady, be careful."
Dugu Cheng instructed, Xier's mother is his mother. He failed to protect Zhu Xier, so he would protect her relatives for her.
"He doesn't have the guts to do anything to me yet."
Looking into Feng Fu's eyes, Du Gu Cheng seemed to see the fierceness in Xi Er's. Perhaps this was a case of like mother, like daughter. Xi Er must have learned this from her mother.
"We will be back as soon as possible."
After dinner, Duguo City and Yexi returned to Fengyuan to rest. Although Yaoqing didn't come, she still sent someone to inquire.
The Yao people's starry sky is particularly beautiful. Dugu City lay on the roof, looking at the twinkling stars in the night sky, thinking of Ye Xi and what he said, Xi'er is now with another man, and it is very possible that she has already lost her memory.
He searched for her for two days in the capital but couldn't find her. Does that mean their fate has run its course
"My lord, are you thinking of the princess wife again"
Ye Xi flew beside him, looking at the melancholy on the prince's face and soothingly said, "Wait until we help Madam settle matters here, we will return to the capital to look for the princess. Moreover, Madam has already sent people to the capital to look for the princess. I believe there will be news soon."
"Ye Xi, do you think Xi'er will really have forgotten who I am Will she and that young master fall in love over time"
Such a woman as Xi'er, how many men in the world wouldn't like her He was truly afraid that if he missed his chance, there would never be another opportunity to be with her.
"My lord, don't think too much about it. You know best what kind of person your wife is, she wouldn't leave you to find someone else."
But if she loses her memory, who can control matters of the heart
獨孤城 gazed at the night sky and said to himself with a self-deprecating chuckle, “In the beginning, I swore revenge on her. But in the end, I lost to her, and more importantly, I lost to my own heart.”
"My lord, there's no point in thinking about anything now. Once we finish here, we'll go find the princess. Then you'll know what really happened. Besides, Little Li is going to find the princess too, isn't she If she gets any news, she'll definitely tell us."
Did you see Xiaoli following Xier that day
Ye Xi's body stiffened slightly, looking at the loneliness in the king's eyes, she didn't know how to comfort him.
He now only hopes that Xiaoli can find the princess as soon as possible, and don't let the princess fall in love with the one who saved her.
The Prince's Mansion
Feng Ling that day after listening to Xiao Li finish her previous master's story, liked being with Xiao Li even more. Huangpu Qingyun sometimes looked at Feng Ling's kindness towards Xiao Li and felt a bit jealous, feeling that the relationship between Xiao Li and Xi'er wasn't something that just started now, but rather one that had existed long ago.
"Xiao Li, let's go for a walk. I want to check out the herbal medicine store."
Feng Lingxi pulled Xiao Li out early in the morning, and as soon as Xiao Li agreed, she saw Huang Fu Qingyun walking over and hurriedly greeted him.
"Xier, are you all going out"
Huangfu Qingyun looked at Feng Lingxi's money bag in her hand. Now she had learned to carry a money bag when going out.
Feng Ling hurriedly placed the money bag behind her and timidly looked at Huangfu Qingyun, whispering, "Your Highness, I want to go shopping with Xiao Li."
"I'll go with you."
Feng Lingxi shook her head, which action made Huangfu Qingyun frown and subconsciously look at Xiao Li, "Why"
"You won't let me go to the herbal medicine shop."
“So you took Xiao Li with you”
Huangfu Qingyun looked at Xiao Li, obviously displeased. Xiao Li hurriedly knelt down, "Your Highness, forgive me. Miss likes medicinal herbs and was afraid Your Highness wouldn't allow her to go out, so she could only let me take her out to buy medicinal herbs."
Feng Lingxi hurriedly pulled Xiao Li up, shielding her behind him, and looked at Huangfu Qingyun, "This matter was all my idea, Your Highness. If you want to punish, just punish me."
Huangfu Qingyun, watching Feng Lingxi's actions, suddenly felt envious of Xiaoli. She was actually able to elicit such pity from Xi'er.
"If you're going out to buy medicinal herbs, I'll have someone go with you."
Feng Lingxi looked at Huangfu Qingyun in surprise, "You don't stop me from buying herbs"
Huangfu Qingyun looked at her astonished gaze, the pain in his heart deepened. It turned out that in her heart, he had made her feel so unfree
"Whatever you like to talk about, just say it, and I won't stop you from doing anything you want to do."raid of She's sitting in the carriage, and her ears aren't growing out of nowhere. How could she possibly hear us talking It's such a blizzard. We are elders of the Yao Clan, for heaven's sake! Does s...
