it until your own body recovers before talking about it."Feng Lingxi still wanted to say something, but when she met Dugucheng's domineering gaze, she could only tell Xiaoli, "Go and have a look, tell..."You have said these words to me before."
The Empress Dowager Cen was very dissatisfied with Feng Lingxi's words. Such evasive replies were meaningless after being said several times, just like how Feng Lingxi kept talking about the Yao clan's treasure but never gave her any.
This verbal promise, this flimsy verbal promise, how much is it worth
"Feng Lingxi apologized with a face full of remorse, "I'm sorry, I didn't realize it had already been said."
Then Empress Cen cast her a glance. “The people outside are saying that you’re going to hand over the Yao Clan's treasure to me. Now everyone in the world thinks you shouldn't do so, and those with ulterior motives see this as an opportunity to attack you.”
Feng Lingxi nodded, "The Empress Dowager makes sense. It's just why would everyone in the world know this news Many people within the Yao clan don't even know about it. I promised the Empress Dowager, and only I and the Fourth Prince know about it. The rest are those who belong to the Great Yuan Dynasty."
Feng Lingxi hesitated for a moment, then raised her eyes to meet Taihou Cen's icy gaze. She frowned and asked, "Does Taihou think this matter has anything to do with the Sixth Prince"
"How did you bring up Xiu'er again He's missing, what can be done"
Empress Cen seemed very unwilling. After all, Dugu Xiu was her own son, and she couldn't tolerate anyone criticizing him.
“Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, and King Six's cooperation with the Dan Liao tribe, the Empress Dowager should be clear about this. The leader of the Dan Liao tribe, Yelü Hong, has such remarkable abilities to strengthen the Dan Liao tribe, he must be extraordinary. King Six knows that the Yao Clan treasure is to be given to Your Majesty. Yelü Hong would surely know this as well. I wonder if they spread this news themselves.”
"So, you're saying that this was done by Xiu'er"
Feng Lingxi frowned, her expression feigning complexity, shaking her head.
"I'm not sure, maybe or maybe not."
Empress Cen swept a cold gaze over Feng Lingxi's conflicted expression. "No matter who reveals the news to me now, I will ask you this: everyone in the world knows that the Yao Clan's treasure is meant for my family. Since this has been agreed upon, deliver the treasure to the Great Yuan Dynasty as soon as possible."
Windling nodded in agreement.
“The Empress Dowager speaks truly. I have also been considering this matter. I will return later to discuss it with the chieftain and see how we can avoid the prying eyes of the world and safely transport such a large treasure trove to the Yuan Dynasty and into the Empress Dowager's hands.”
Feng Lingxi's serious tone almost made Empress Cen furious.
Her words were clear enough. The whole world had its eyes on the Yuan Dynasty.
Feng Lingxi's every move is now under their watchful eyes. If this treasure is transported, wouldn't it be telling the world to come and grab it How could this treasure possibly reach the Great Yuan Dynasty
Empress Cen felt that this time she really was shooting herself in the foot. She hadn't expected things to develop like this after releasing the news.
"Your sincerity in offering this treasure is enough for me, Your Majesty. It's not suitable to transport it at the moment, so let's leave it be for now."
"Yes."
Feng Lingxi meekly replied, looking at Empress Cen's suppressed emotions in her eyes, she remained silent.
"The General's Residence awaits your comfort, but you are still the daughter-in-law of Imperial Consort Shu. As the Fourth Princess Consort of this Four Kings' Mansion, the late Emperor bestowed upon you this marriage and did not agree to your separation. Do you remember this"
Feng Lingxi replied, "Of course I remember. The late emperor said that the betrothal was a decree and could not be revoked. I have always kept it in mind."
Empress Dowager Cen nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "During this time you've been at General Fu’s residence, the streets and alleys of the capital have all been talking about your discord with Fourth Prince. To be honest, this matter is something I wouldn't normally concern myself with, but since your marriage was arranged by the late emperor, I must remind you of the gravity of the situation."
“Thank you, Empress Dowager. However, my relationship with the Fourth Prince is not strained. I returned to General's Residence only because it had been too long since I visited my mother's home. Besides, my grandfather came back from his hometown and I wanted to show him filial piety in front of him. I didn't expect to be misunderstood. It was my oversight. I will return to the Fourth Prince's Mansion in the next two days.”
"Very well."
Seeing Feng Lingxi's well-behaved reply, Empress Cen felt much better.
After all, she was married to the Fourth Prince of the Yuan Dynasty. She still had to consider her status as a princess.
"Your Majesty, didn't Generalissimo Zhen Guo's title exist before This period while Grandpa has returned, he had his son go everywhere to quell bandits and unrest, protecting the country and benefiting the people. This title of Generalissimo Zhen Guo is quite fitting."
After Feng Lingxi finished speaking, Empress Cen's face turned grim.
The matter of this national hero general had finally been quelled, yet Feng Lingxi brought it up again.
Feng Lingxi, seeing the situation, continued, "Compared to Lan Fei and the Empress now, the Empress's natal family is slightly inferior. I just think that granting a title can alleviate the current situation, but this title must be granted by Grandpa."
Then Empress Cen finally understood. Feng Ling Xi had been talking for so long, she just wanted the title of Grand Marshal of the Nation for Feng Cang Kai.
She, when the wind was fierce and rain poured down, finally woke up and realized she had to team up with Feng Yu Xi to protect the General's Mansion.
It seems that Feng Lingxi's general's mansion has always been without the rain and dusk of Yu Xi. In this way, she is relieved a lot.
"Your words have reminded me. The Empress and the Emperor get along well now. If she were to become pregnant again, this position of Crown Prince would belong to the child in her womb. Since you are here, why not go to the Phoenix Hall and feel the Empress's pulse This way, I can also know what is going on with her."
When Feng Lingxi heard that he was going to see Feng Yuxi's pulse, his brows furrowed even tighter.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Medical Bureau has many imperial physicians. I'm afraid this might not be appropriate."
"Why should I object to sending you Besides, I want to know the true situation of what's in the empress's womb. I know only you can give me a satisfactory answer."
Feng Lingxi was very reluctant. She really didn't want to deal with this matter of Yu Xi being pregnant in the wind and rain.
"Grandma Zhang, accompany Fourth Princess to the Fenyi Palace for a walk. Later, come back for dinner."
Feng Lingxi, unable to resist the imperial decree, followed Zhang MaMa to the Phoenix Pavilion.
"See the Four Kings."
As Feng Lingxi walked towards the imperial garden, she heard a maidservant's voice and raised her head in astonishment. She saw Dugu City walking towards her, which surprised her greatly. How did he enter the palace
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi's surprised eyes, his handsome face full of displeasure.
"Xi'er, seeing this king, what is your reaction"
"How did you get here"
Feng Lingxi looked at Zhang Mamá beside her and whispered, “The Empress Dowager asked me to go to the Fengyi Palace to diagnose the Queen's pulse. I will return after dinner.”
"This King will go to see the Emperor, and I'll wait for you at the palace gate in a while."
Wind Lingxi nodded, watching Dugu City lean down and whisper a few words in her ear. Wind Lingxi looked at him in surprise, meeting Dugu City's smiling face, becoming even more confused.
"Hurry to the Phoenix Pavilion, I'll tell you later."
Beside, Zhang Mama watched Dugu City walk away. The Fourth Princess's puzzled expression, although curious, she still politely urged, "Fourth Princess, it's getting late. Let's go to Fenyi Hall for a check-up first and then talk."
Feng Lingxi turned her head to look at Zhang Mamā, lowering her voice and asking, "Zhang Mamā, do you know about King Su's entry into the palace"e taken with you. If there's no food along the way, they can serve as rations."獨孤城收下，看著這地上積雪，“小璃他們去打獵了，想必也會有點東西回來，到時候再給村民分點。”Feng Lingxi nodded, "Just now that old woman said that we should be able to...
