given to me by the late emperor. Besides her, I won't let anyone else take the position of the Fourth Princess.""Feng Ling Xi poisoned the previous emperor, your marriage to her is out of the question..."Wait."

Feng Lingxi caught the key point and, seeing Lu Fu's astonished gaze, asked the question that had been puzzling her.

"Does the madam mean that no one has ever known the secrets of the Yao clan"

Lady Lu nodded. "For a thousand years, everyone in the world has known that the Yao Clan has treasure. Whoever obtains it can rule the world. People have tried every means to get it, but no one has ever been able to open the Yao Clan's treasure."

"That's impossible, my mother has seen it. I remember when I went to the Yao Clan, they told me that only after becoming the Saint Master could you see the treasures of the Yao Clan. My mother wouldn't lie to me."

Feng Lingxi shook her head, this information volume is really too large.

Lady Lu's expression was stern. "Your mother only has the Zi Xing, not the Bai Liu Li. How could she possibly open the secrets of the Yao clan You must know, the Yao clan is not a simple entity, nor is it the Ghost Saint Kingdom Yao clan you see. The Yao clan spreads throughout the world, and their sacred objects are certainly more than just one. The Zi Xing is the key to the Bai Liu Li, and the address on the treasure map has never been discovered by anyone."

"Where's the map to the treasure"

Feng Lingxi suddenly remembered the braided bracelet her mother had given her, the small piece of parchment hidden inside, and the parchments she had obtained from the Feng family. Could all those fragmented parchments added together be the scrolls Lu Fu was talking about

"Xier, Zi Xing has already recognized you as the master. Bai Liuli's master is also you. If you get the treasure map, you can unravel the secrets of the Yao clan for a thousand years."

"So my mother was being pursued by the Yao Clan, and she had a piece of the treasure map in her hand"

Feng Ling Xi's mind was filled with terrible thoughts. Could her mother be being chased by the elders of the Yao clan because she stole fragments of this treasure map And their intention to take away Wan Er, could it also be related to opening the secrets of the Yao clan

But Wan'er is just a child. Even if she were her daughter, what ability does she have to unlock the secrets of the Yao clan

Feng Ling instinctively touched the purple star on her neck, and an image of her mother recognizing it with her blood flashed in her mind when she was a child. Could it be because of Wan'er's blood

Lady Lu looked at Feng Lingxi's turning eyes and nodded.

"Yes."

"So, did Lu Hao know that my mother was giving him a piece of the treasure map when they first met"

Mrs. Lu shook her head, “You’re wronging him. He doesn’t know anything about the Yao clan. Lu Hao’s feelings for your mother are genuine. These things, your grandmother told me. Because I am the mistress of the Lu family, I have the right to know these things.”

"Why didn't the old madam speak to me personally"

Tonight's information is really huge, she finally understands what kind of existence the Yao clan is. The treasure map fragment held by her mother, and the Ghost Saint Kingdom looking for her mother, should be to retrieve the complete treasure map. And they caught Wan'er, it should be because they want Wan'er's blood. As long as Wan'er is in their hands, the rest of the things the Ghost Saint Kingdom wants, it will also be easy to get.

These things strung together, Feng Lingxi felt it was too terrifying.

This Gui Sheng Guoc's Yao clan didn't want Wan'er to inherit anything at all. They only wanted her blood.

"Xier, I know you are intelligent beyond compare. This is all I know about the Yao clan. The rest, you will have to investigate yourself. Find your mother and ask her about her intentions, the true reason why Guisheng Kingdom took Wan'er. If necessary, the Lu family will intervene and help resolve this. Rest assured, for anything concerning you, I will do everything in my power to protect you."

Mrs. Lu's words touched Feng Lingxi deeply.

"Thank you, Madam."

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

Feng Lingxi politely declined, and looked at the white glass in her hand. She still returned it to its owner.

"My lady, this journey is fraught with uncertainty. If we were to bring the Lu family's heirloom along, it would undoubtedly attract deadly danger. It's best to leave it at the Lu residence for now. In the future, if needed, I can come back and borrow it from you."

Mrs. Lu placed Bai Liu-li into the box. “This belongs to you, and since you’re not comfortable carrying it, I’ll keep it for you. Come get it whenever you need it.”

"Thank you, Madam."

This night, Lady Lu and Feng Lingxi chatted very late. Lady Lu told Feng Lingxi about the origins of the Lu family, about the relationship between the Yao clan and the Lu family, and also talked about many things about the Yao clan. In summary, the secrets of the Yao clan were not just as simple as treasure. Knowing the secrets of the Yao clan, besides treasure, there was something else. What it was, no one had ever known. For a thousand years, no one knew, and no one had ever uncovered it.

The next day, Lu Nian had the carriage ready for their departure. As Lu Nian was about to leave with Feng Lingxi and the others, they encountered Luo Li, an unexpected guest who had come from the Great Yuan Dynasty. Luo Li sought out the Lu Mansion and, by pure coincidence, bumped into Feng Lingxi, who was about to leave.

Just, Luoli glanced at her and left without greeting or a word.

"Master..."

Wan'er watched Luoli walk away, wanting to call him back, but Luoli did not stop. He drifted away gracefully.

"My lady, this is Luo Li, the chieftain of the Yao tribe."

Lu's wife retracted her gaze and patted Feng Lingxi's hand back, her eyes soothing, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him."

Feng Lingxi responded with a nod, glancing at Wan'er and the others who were still bidding farewell to the old lady and the old master. Her eyes were full of tenderness. It seemed that over the past few days, the siblings had won over the old lady and the old master. Those reluctant looks showed they considered this place as their own home.

"Madam, there is one more thing A'er wants to ask of you. Regarding Tao Su's matter, I still hope that Madam can help, so that he and the villagers can clear their names."

Mrs. Lu pointed to the front, "Look who that is"

Tao Su walked over to Feng Ling Xi's side, saw the smile on her face, and greeted her, "Xiao Feng, I'm not late, am I"

"Tao Su, what is this..."

"Looking at the burden on Tao Su's shoulders, 'Where are you going'"

"Protecting you, I promised Lady Lu. After clearing my name, I will safeguard your safety."

Feng Lingxi was stunned, looking at the smile on Lu's wife's face.

"Tao Su's case has been investigated, the Emperor's imperial decree has been issued, Tao's family has been exonerated, and Tao Su has been cleared of all charges. The court will also make arrangements for the people in the mountain village."

Lu Hao replied, noticing Feng Lingxi's puzzled eyes. Tao Su nodded.

"It's true, so I should also keep my promise and protect your safety."

"Isn't it supposed to be a few days How come it's so soon"

Feng Lingxi always felt something was wrong. This processing was too fast, wasn't it

"This is the Empress Dowager's meaning."

Mrs. Lu looked at Feng Lingxi, "Do you remember the box I gave you last night Take it with you. You'll know when you leave Xigu Kingdom."

Feng Lingxi looked at the smile on Lu Fu's face, becoming even more puzzled. This mysterious affair, what exactly was going on

"Sister, it's time to leave."

Lu Nian urged, when he left, not even a farewell, unlike his sister, it was like moving house. This kind of different treatment was really heartbreaking.u're telling me that people who could assassinate her don't know where she is That's a terrible lie."Luo Li coughed lightly twice, looking at Feng Ling Xi and explaining, "This assassination has nothi...
