sed to buy food. If it were someone else, they would have bought the entire world with it."Mother, how much money is in the Yao clan's treasure, and why do so many people want it"It is said that it is...Huangpu Qingyun held Feng Lingxi in his arms, feeling her real presence. The scent of her body, her warmth, the faint fragrance of medicine from her hair—it was all no longer a fleeting glimpse in a dream.

Feng Lingxi hurriedly pushed him away.

"Huangfu Qingyun, how did you get here"

Feng Lingxi's mind was blank. She had just arrived yesterday, and this Huangfu Qingyun, as the Crown Prince of the Huangxia Dynasty, how could he appear in the capital city of Dayuan Dynasty Moreover, how did he know she was here

Huangfu Qingyun's eyes held a smile as he gently tapped her nose. Looking at Feng Lingxi's puzzled expression, he said with tenderness, "Of course I came to find you."

"No, I mean, how did you know I was here I only arrived in Beijing yesterday"

Huangfu Qingyun looked at Feng Lingxi's serious and solemn expression, and suddenly became serious.

"I heard you returned to the Yuan Dynasty some time ago. A half-month ago, the Huang Xia Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty proposed a marriage alliance, my father agreed, so I came."

"You..." Feng Lingxi was shocked, "Are you here to visit relatives"

Is it necessary for the strength of this summer dynasty to be compared with that of the Yuan Dynasty Besides, after all these years, has Huangfu Qingyun not yet married

Huangfu Qingyun looked at Feng Lingxi's astonished gaze and nodded with a smile, "Yes, this marriage is of my own volition."

"Congratulations then."

Feng Lingxi and Huangfu Qingyun kept a certain distance. After more than five years, he hadn't changed much. Seeing him doing well, Feng Lingxi was also happy for him.

"Xier, can we have a good chat These past five years, I've really missed you. Seeing you come back, and that you haven't changed at all, I'm truly overjoyed. It's so good to see you again."

Huángfǔ Qīngyún spoke and wanted to embrace Fēng Lǐngxī, but he saw her step back two steps, keeping a certain distance from him.

"I need to go out now, I have something important to attend to. Let's make plans for another day."

"Wherever you go, I'll go with you."

Huangfu Qingyun was so happy to see Feng Lingxi that he didn't want to be apart from her at all. He held back from telling her that this time, his betrothed was Xi'er. He wanted to see her reaction after finding out.

No matter if she would accept him or not, if it was with her family's consent, Emperor Yuan Zhao could order the marriage. Xi'er should not refuse him. Being with him is better than being with Dugu Cheng. Back then, he and Dugu Cheng had agreed that as long as he owed Xi'er, he would no longer tolerate it. He would pursue Xi'er and marry her.

Feng Lingxi felt Huangfu Qingyun's enthusiasm and reached out politely to push him away, keeping a certain distance from him.

"No need."

Huangfu Qingyun's smile froze on his face, watching Feng Lingxi distancing herself from him. His heart felt like it was being pricked by needles, aching with discomfort.

Since she is no longer the Crown Princess, couldn't she accept him

"Xier, do you dislike me"

Huangpu Qingyun suddenly asked, Feng Lingxi was left dumbfounded by his words.

“No, it’s just a matter of status. Besides, I really have something to attend to, and I can’t take you with me.” Her eyes fell on the group of people behind him. He was the Crown Prince of the summer dynasty, noble in status, and traveled in a retinue. She didn't want to draw attention.

"Then I'll wait for you to come back."

Feng Lingxi nodded to him and hurriedly went out with Feng Aotian.

"Sister Xi'er, do you know who the prince came here to meet with his family during this scorching summer"

Feng Yixuan suddenly asked, Feng Lingxi's face was nonchalant.

"It couldn't possibly be me, why worry so much Besides, I'm going as soon as I finish what I have to do."

"Xier, sister, you probably can't leave so easily."

Feng Yixuan paused for a moment, "I heard the rumors a few days ago that this time during the summer court, the prince and his relatives would be choosing a partner. And I heard it was you."

"Me"

Feng Lingxi seemed to have heard a joke, she shook her head involuntarily, "Yi Xuan, are you joking with me I already have three children. Have you ever seen a consort who came with three children"

"Sister Xi'er, I heard it too, but seeing Crown Prince Huofeng come to look for you, the way he looked at you, I think there's an 8 or 9 out of 10 chance that this is true."

Feng Lingxi stopped her steps and looked at Feng Aotien.

"Is what Yi Xuan said true"

“I don’t know, I just came back myself, and I haven’t heard any rumors that your relative is him.” Feng Aotian looked at Feng Yixuan. He was truly unaware of this matter, and even if he had heard rumors, he wouldn’t spread them without verifying the truth at this crucial moment. Doing so would damage Xi'er’s reputation.

Feng Yixuan was intimidated by Feng Aotiān's gaze and lowered his head, "I will investigate this matter as soon as possible."

"If this is true, Prince Chen's sources would have news before yours. Figure out how to get the truth from him. Also, don't spread it around recklessly. The truth is still unknown, so avoid causing trouble."

Feng Yi Xuan nodded, apologetically saying, "Sister Xi'er, I'm sorry. I acted rashly."

"It's fine, this matter does need to be investigated clearly. I certainly don't want to come back just to be treated as a tool."

Feng Lingxi recalled the attitude of Huangpu Qingyun just now. It was impossible for the Chao dynasty to accept a married woman with three children as the crown princess, right They wouldn't want her to be their Empress!

Feng Lingxi shook her head. If it was really the case, Huangfu Qingyun would have just said so just now.

"Let's go see Feng Yu Xi first and find out what happened five years ago before we say anything else."

Feng Aotian responded and saw that Feng Lingxi was not pursuing further questions. He drove towards the back mountain where Feng Yu Xi resided, braving the wind and rain.

After the wind and rain had a child, when she returned to the Feng family, Feng Aotien placed her in a wooden house on the back mountain of the General's Mansion. The air was fresh there, and no one disturbed them.

Although Feng Aotien didn't let Feng Yuxi return to the General's Mansion, Zhao Shi was truly kind to this woman. She often visited and even had maids attend to her, ensuring she had food and clothing without worries. It wasn't bad at all. However, Feng Yuxi's body was becoming increasingly frail. She was no longer the spirited Feng Yuxi of old.

Feng Aotian brought Feng Lingxi to the wooden house where Feng Yuxi lived. From afar, they could hear the child's crying mixed with scolding. Feng Lingxi recognized the voice as Feng Yuxi's. It seemed that Feng Yuxi had also become a village woman in the countryside, raising children and nagging them.

"Xier, I apologize for the trouble."

Feng Aotien felt a bit awkward. This kind of thing with Feng Yuxi, he was used to it, but Feng Lingxi was unexpected.

Beyond the shouts of Feng Yu Xi, there were also coughs. Feng Ling Xi frowned and followed Feng Ao Tian towards the wooden house.

The child's cries grew louder and louder, accompanied by the sound of beating. Feng Aotian quickened his pace and rushed in. He saw Feng Yuxi holding a stick about to hit the child, so he immediately stepped forward, snatched it away, picked up the child, and looked at Feng Yuxi's disheveled appearance. It hadn't been long since they last met, but her face was pale, her hair was messy, her lips were cracked, and her eyes were dim. These unhealthy symptoms made Feng Yuxi look like a woman in her forties or fifties.ged, they want to take action against her.These Yao people are ridiculous. When they needed her, they considered her the Saint Master's heir. Now that they don't need her anymore, they're trying to fi...
