de. You go call him."Ye Xi responded, hurriedly entering the room. When she saw the man lying on the floor, her lips twitched, and she covered her eyes as she rushed forward, "Your Highness, something..."It seems my little Feimo has really grown up," Feng Lingxi patted Feng Yumo's head, looking at his shy expression. "But this habit of shyness still needs to be changed. A future general can't be shy like this. If you marry a wife in the future and are still like this, who would be willing to marry you"

"Sister, Yumo is still young. He won't be getting married."

Feng Yu Mo's anxious explanation made him seem even more like a child who hadn't grown up.

If you don't marry a wife, won't the Feng family line be cut off in the future

"Aren't there still them"

When Feng Yumo spoke of them, his eyes noticeably dimmed. His future was only cared for by his grandfather and sister; how could others possibly care about his future.

Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yumo's suddenly downcast eyes and comforted him, "They aren't you."

Feng Yu Mo raised his head, watching as his elder sister nodded at him. Her gentle eyes made him nod in return. "Sister, Feng Yu Mo understands."

"Without saying these things, we still have business to attend to."

But what about those people we brought back last night

Feng Lingxi nodded, "It's Empress Cen's spy here. I have to find all of their accomplices. Can we live peacefully in Linxi County if these worms aren't removed"

"Sister, let me help you with this."

Feng Yu Mo volunteered, finally having his day to shine.

Feng Lingxi nodded, looking at General Li, "This matter still needs the help of General Li. These days, everyone entering and leaving the city must be strictly checked, so that spies cannot leak information and ruin our plans."

"This subordinate will definitely cooperate with the young general to apprehend the traitor."

"Xiao Li, you follow Ye Xi, take General Li and Yu Mo to the cell for questioning. See if you can find any clues."

Xiao Li responded and led them down. Only then did Feng Ling Xi look at Du Gu Cheng.

"Xier, what shall we do together"

“Take me to see the city guard, I want to meet him.”

"Do you suspect this city official"

Du Gu Cheng raised an eyebrow. If this guard captain really had a problem, General Li wouldn't be unaware of it.

Feng Lingxi shook her head, “It’s not that I doubt this city guard official, it's just that I feel there are spies under his nose, but he is completely unaware. Regardless of whether he has a problem or not, let's just go and take a look.”

Dugu Cheng nodded, “If there’s a problem, it won’t take long for the truth to come out.”

"Yes."

This is also why she pushed General Li away, perhaps these were all her overthinking.

"Having let things go on for so long in Xinxian County, who in the world would be able to tell who is loyal and true anymore Who could possibly remain devoted their entire life"

獨孤城和風淩兮來到城門口，守城的官員是李將軍麾下的一名副將，戰場上腿腳受過傷，表麵上看不出來，但武功卻不如以前那般。派來這裡當守城官也是因此。

Otherwise, how could the deputy general be willing to serve as a garrison officer

"This humble one bows to the Four Kings, and is the wife of the Fourth King."

"Zhang, Lord, there is no need for formality. This King came today with Xi'er specifically to visit you. These past years, this King has been drifting about, and it has been you and General Li who have been managing Linxi County. It has been hard work, Zhang."

Zhang Baiwen hurriedly bowed, "Fourth Prince, this is all that the last general should do. It is the last general's fortune to be able to serve the prince."

Dugu City motioned for him to sit down and speak. After offering tea, the three sat inside a room on the city wall, watching the snowflakes dance all over the sky outside the wall.

"Master Zhang, you don't seem surprised to see me here."

Feng Lingxi asked, this Zhang DaRen is about forty or fifty years old, calm and introverted, not at all impetuous.

Seeing her appear with Dugu City, she wasn't at all surprised by their presence together.

After she said goodbye yesterday, she entered the city without any inspection. However, this Hundred Questions seemed to have known about her arrival beforehand and showed no surprise whatsoever.

"The Fourth Princess and the clan chief entered the city yesterday. Although I did not see it with my own eyes, my subordinates have reported it."

Feng Lingxi nodded in approval, "Zhang-daren is serious about his work, I truly admire him." Such subtle handling... it seems even the pair of cousins under his eyes haven't escaped his notice.

"Zhang sir, I won't beat around the bush. The reason I'm here today is to ask you something."

Zhang Baiwen stood up, bowed to them, and knelt down.

"Fourth Lord, Fourth Lady, this subordinate has erred."

Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng looked at each other, just as they had guessed.

"Master Zhang, what do you mean by that"

Dugu Cheng frowned, feigning ignorance.

“Your Grace and Her Ladyship’s intentions are clear to me. It must be about the treacherous spies discovered near the Empress Dowager yesterday. This morning, I learned of the Li brothers' capture, so I guessed that Your Grace and Her Ladyship would come to inquire about this matter.”

"So Zhang-daren actually knew about this."

Zhang Baiwen nodded, but his face showed no fear.

"My Lord, My Lady, this subordinate understands that you suspect him of being a spy for Consort Cen. This subordinate can pledge the lives of his entire family as guarantee; he has never done anything for Consort Cen."

"Lord Zhang, please rise and speak."

Dugu Cheng stepped forward and helped him up. Zhang Baiwen looked at the couple before him and truthfully reported what had happened.

He had only been the city guard commander for less than a month when he knew that the Li brothers were spies sent by the Empress Dowager to keep an eye on Xicun. He also knew they met with Dugu Xiu and that they exposed the situation in the city. He wanted to arrest the Li brothers, but he found out that there were other spies behind them within the city.

Zhang Baiwen remained still and pretended not to know, allowing him to move freely within the city. Moreover, Dugu City and Feng Lingxi were both absent from Linxi County. Naturally, the news they carried out was limited.

Zhang Baiwen didn't meddle much, he just stared at their line of movement, observing and guessing. He wanted to know their number, the place they met, and the number of people inside and outside the city.

"To be ashamed, I haven't figured out how many spies there are outside the city walls. They constantly change their meeting places, and I haven't had a chance to take action against them."

Zhang Baiwen finished speaking and looked at Dugu City, "Your Highness, this is all the information I have."

According to Zhang, the informants inside and outside the city, those we captured yesterday, are far from enough.

Zhang Baiwen nodded, "The last general thinks that it is best not to interfere and ignore it."

"Ignore it, and the news will reach Beijing."

Feng Lingxi looked at Zhang Baiwen, her eyes narrowed slightly, "Zhang sir, what do you think"

Zhang Baiwen nodded, his eyes still without the slightest fluctuation. There was no trace of nervousness or unease on his face.

“The Queen’s words make sense, but this general believes that the news of the Queen and the Prince traveling together has already reached the capital and even the Empress Dowager’s ears. The Queen should know that the court has people watching the Prince and Queen’s every move. Since there is no news yet, it must mean something has changed in the court.”

This point raised in the hundred questions is very reasonable, making it difficult to find fault with anything he said.eng Lingxi coldly scanned Feng Lingyu, looking at her angry eyes. Xiaoli walked up to Feng Lingyu's face, "Second Miss, please return."“Father, look at how Feng Lingxi is acting. Is she trying to rebe...
