Chapter 967: Metamorphosis 41

ajesty, I have already had people prepare all the houses here. I want to bring Xi'er back to live with me. Thank you for your help, Your Highness. I am grateful to you.""Yun'er, what do you think"Huan...Huan Yue watched Dugu Su's departing figure, her fists clenched tightly. A cold glint flashed across her eyes as she whispered, "Tell the master that Dugu Su intends to break the agreement."

Feng Lingxi and Li Wuyan went to the town's apothecary to buy a lot of medicinal herbs. This time, the guards who came out with Dugu City were not many, after the assassination, there were only dozens of people left, with a dozen seriously injured.

Feng Lingxi bought the medicinal materials for them. These soldiers were all people around Dugu City and she couldn't ignore them.

"Dugu City's injuries are severe, and he needs to rest for two days before continuing the journey. However, there shouldn't be any more assassination attempts on this trip."

Li Wuyan opened his mouth, looking at Feng Lingxi with a thoughtful expression.

"Who do you still think assassinated him"

"No, I was thinking, will it snow in two days"

Li Wuyan's eyes stared at the sky. This gloomy weather, either snow or rain, couldn't it even think of clearing up

"Anyway, we've rested enough. Time to get going."

Feng Lingxi nodded, the prescription in her hand remained untouched. After struggling for so long, Feng Lingxi still couldn't bring herself to fully trust Li Wuyan as she used to. They could talk about herbs and anything else without hesitation, but this prescription... If she gave it to him, what if there was a problem with the ingredients

She was scared.

"A-Yan, why do you say people's hearts change"

Feng Ling Xi suddenly asked, Li Wu Yan's footsteps came to an abrupt halt, he frowned and looked at her, "What is it"

"I'm thinking, someday, will the people I believe in betray me"

"How did you suddenly bring this up"

Feng Lingxi wryly smiled, “I thought of my mother and felt some sorrow, so you laughed.”

"At least I won't."

Li Wuyan looked at Feng Lingxi, his eyes sincere, "I said, I treat you as a friend, then I will definitely be your friend."

Feng Lingxi nodded slightly, "Thank you." Hopefully so.

"Your Highness, the mistress has news."

Xiao Li leaned close to Feng Ling Xi's ear and whispered, "I just got word that the mistress was spotted near Yaozu. She was seen in Linxi County a few days ago."

"Immediately send word, have the clansmen spread the message. If anyone finds Mother, tell her to come to Linxi County and look for me."

After such a long time, Mother has finally come back.

Feng Ling's heart was filled with excitement. If she could stay in Linxi County, she would be truly content.

"Your mother is back, congratulations."

Li Wuyan spoke, looking at Feng Lingxi with envy in his eyes. A trace of sadness crossed his face, making Feng Lingxi apologetic and say, "I'm sorry."

"It's good that you found your mother. Now apologize to me."

Windling looked at Li Wuyan walking forward, knowing he was also thinking of his mother. However, the deceased had passed away, and she didn't know how to comfort him.

"Your Highness, this Dr. Li..."

Feng Lingxi shook her head at Xiao Li and said, "Let's just watch for now. She seems confused right now, I don't know if I'm overthinking it or if Li Wuyan is just too good at acting."

After a few days of recuperation, Dugu City's wounds had improved considerably. On the third day, Feng Lingxi was ready to set off. Before leaving, Feng Lingxi pulled Tian Xiaomi aside and handed her a box.

“You're unwilling to leave with me, so here you go. Feng YiXuan has amnesia and doesn’t know how long it will last. If you want him to remain amnesiac, to forget the past, give him this. He can stay here with you, be your big ox.”

Tian Xiaomi looked at the box, her eyes were lost in thought.

If you wish to find me, come directly to Linxi County. They will lead you to me.

Tian Xiaomi put away the box, “Thank you, my fellow villager.”

"Let's go."

Feng Lingxi patted Tian Xiaomi on the shoulder and got into the carriage.

"Isn't she coming with us"

Feng Lingxi shook her head, "She wants to be here."

After all, everyone's choices are different. She couldn't force Tian Xiaomi to stay just because she wanted to. Who knows, maybe she could go back soon.

"You just believe everything that 田小米 says"

Feng Lingxi took out a stack of silver notes and waved them in front of Luo Li's face. "If you give me tens of thousands of silver notes, will you believe what I say to you"

Luo Li's lips twitched slightly, and she lifted the curtain to glance at the inn. Two words popped into her mind: black shop.

"Don't get any ideas, Xiaomi is not the kind of person you think she is." Feng Lingxi glared at Luo Li with displeasure. "They are all black merchants, at most they are robbing from the rich to give to the poor."

"Do you mean to say that you're poor"

When the wind blows, she nods, but with a glance, she shows disdain.

"As the esteemed Fourth Royal Consort and Holy Lord of the Yao Clan, could you possibly be impoverished"

"Did you give me the money I'm not poor, who is" Besides, why couldn't she accept the money that Tian Xiaomi gave her Moreover, she really needed this money. After all, expanding her influence required more spending.

Although this Yao clan supposedly possesses a treasure trove rivaling a nation's wealth, she has yet to see any of the so-called treasures. Her fortune is all her own making; she merely lends her name to it.

"Xier, since these coins are given to you, just keep them well. You'll need them in the future."

Feng Lingxi shoved the money into Dugu Cheng's hands. He didn't speak, as if she hadn't said anything at all. "Take this," she insisted, "The court hasn't sent any rations, and with half a million soldiers, even if we grow our own food, we still need money."

"Tiānxiānglóu is spread all over the world, with a strong foundation. Do you think he would be short of money" Luolí looked at Feng Língxī with disdain, and Feng Língxī's hand suddenly retracted, looking at Dúlúchéng, "Luolí is right, you are richer than me. This money, I will keep it myself."

Dugu Cheng smiled helplessly, his eyes filled with resignation.

"From now on, I'll leave all the money to you to manage."

"I..." Feng Lingxi thought of the mountains of wealth, and before she could feel happy, she thought of the bills to be paid. Just thinking about it gave her a headache.

"Fine, just leave me alone. I can handle my own money."

Feng Lingxi put away the silver note and started to doze off in the carriage. Although it didn't snow outside today, this gloomy weather made it hard to say how long it would last before it started snowing again.

The weather is freezing cold. Traveling in this kind of weather is truly painful.

The journey, which was originally supposed to take half a month, would now take at least a month. As the Lunar New Year approached, they hadn't even reached Linxi County yet, so they could only celebrate the holiday in a bustling place along the way.

"Xier, Wan'er should be able to sit now, right"

On New Year's Eve, Dugu City sat beside Feng Lingxi, looking at the longing in her eyes, and brought up his daughter whom he had never met.

"Well, I should think so."

Feng Lingxi turned to look at Dugu City, "Mother Empress hasn't spoken much this time. Does she have something on her mind"

Since that day she was injured, Shu Taifei spoke very little. When she went to see her, Shu Taifei would always say a few words and then fall silent.

"Mother, you know I want to seize the throne, but with the current circumstances, it's impossible."

Feng Lingxi was somewhat surprised, looking at Dugu Cheng's wry smile, "Actually, my mother cares deeply about how Empress Cen and Dugu Yan killed your father back then. Dugu Yan is dead, but Dugu Xiu and Empress Cen are still alive. Plus, this time you helped them with the antidote, my mother is not feeling well. She thinks we forgot about our hatred for self-preservation."

>er to "remain widowed." She hadn't forgotten this."The Crown Princess is indeed different from other women. Perhaps that's why the poster has a fondness for the Princess. However, Meicai dares to remi...
