Chapter 597: Conspiracy 83

Linxi County. All the plans were rejected by Feng Aotian. Dugu Xiu's face darkened, and he angrily rebuked, "General Feng, what do you mean Could it be that you still want to protect Feng Lingxi"Feng...Feng Ling Xi interrupted Du Gu Cheng's words. Du Gu Cheng looked at her, his expression changed slightly, a layer of helplessness appeared in his handsome eyes. He knew that Xi Er would sooner or later say she wanted to see Luo Li, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

“It seems Luoli truly understands you. He said that if you want to see him, go to Huamanlou. Tomorrow, this King will accompany you there.”

Feng Lingxi nodded, "There are some things I need to ask him in person. Besides, even if he can't tell me about the Yao clan, I might be able to glean some information from him. That would be helpful, at least a little."

Feng Lingxi explained these things, nothing more than hoping that Dugu City could understand her intentions.

As Xiao Li said, Dugu City is really afraid that something will happen to her.

Dugu Cheng nodded. "This king understands. He told this king today that he will take you back to the Yao clan in a month. This king planned to tell you about this in two days, but now that you want to see him, this king tells you, when you meet him tomorrow, have some preparation in your heart."

What are you preparing

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, her beautiful eyes raised, "Don't you think I would follow him back to the Yao Clan"

Dugu City looked at her, thinking of Luo Li's confident words. Xi'er would go back with him, perhaps now Xi'er hadn't seen Luo Li and didn't feel anything. When she saw Luo Li, it might not be the same anymore.

"If he says he can help you find your mother-in-law, or if he says the Yao clan needs you…"

"Dugu Cheng, do you think he can help me find my mother Aman said my mother was forced by them to jump off the cliff in the forbidden zone, her life and death are unknown. How can he help me find her I can't go to the bottom of the cliff myself Besides, the Yao clan needs me, what does it have to do with me Because of the Yao clan, how much suffering I have endured. Now it is not whether the Yao clan needs me, but whether I need it."

Feng Lingxi was very angry. She had wanted to vent these words that had been bottled up inside her for a long time. She wasn't some kind of saint, she just wanted to live her life well, instead of submitting to them for the sake of so-called heirs.

What is the Yao ethnic group and what is their relationship to you

Since taking on the identity of the Yao Clan Saintess, hasn't she died enough already

Now that her mother was driven to jump off a cliff by them, the Yao people really needed her. Why didn't they look for her when things were going wrong Now that they need her, why should she clean up their mess

Dugu City grasped her hand, "Don't say it anymore, Xi'er don't be angry, if you get angry and hurt your body this King will feel distressed."

Feng Lingxi took a deep breath, looking at Duguo City's worried eyes, "I still feel that the old me suited me better. What's the point of pretending to be gentle and virtuous, and wasting so much time talking to them"

Feng Lingxi vented her feelings, and her mood improved a lot. Then she returned to her room to rest.

Dugu City accompanied her, watching the melancholy on her face. He sat beside her, holding her hand, silently accompanying her.

Feng Lingxi lay there, tears instantly streaming from the corners of her eyes. Dugu Cheng watched her, knowing she was wronged and distressed. Yue Mu's matter must have deeply affected Xi'er. He couldn't help her, so he could only stay by her side, hoping that after she cried, she would feel a little better.

Perhaps she was too tired from this period of time. Feng Lingxi cried for a while and then fell asleep.

Dugu Cheng covered her with a quilt and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. He got up and walked aside to start writing a letter. Linxi County and Yaozu were not far apart, and he had been to Yaozu before. Although he didn't know about the cliff under the forbidden area, he could let them go first and see if there was any news about his mother-in-law.

That's all he can do.

The next day, Feng Lingxi and Dugu City went to Huamanlou. Luoli saw them coming and was not surprised. She had already brewed tea and was waiting for them.

"It seems you knew we were coming"

Feng Ling Xi walked over and sat across from him. Dugu Cheng sat beside Feng Ling Xi, watching Luo Li's calm and composed appearance. She remained unaffected by their arrival, as always, gentle and refined like jade, as if their arrival had been arranged with her beforehand.

"Fourth Princess, the Fourth Prince is having tea."

Rarely did Luoli also greet Dugu City, even offering him a cup of tea.

Feng Ling Xi held the teacup to her nose and sniffed it, then Du Gu Cheng reached out to take it, but Feng Ling Xi stopped him.

"Luo Li, what do you mean"

Feng Lingxi put down the teacup in her hand, “If you want to learn from me, there’s no need for this.”

Du Gu Cheng looked at the teacup, his face changing abruptly, "Luo Li, is this why you wanted to meet Xi Er"

"Fourth Princess, you wanted to see me today. Since you've come looking for me, you have to follow my rules."

Luo Li offered her the tea, "This poison isn't difficult."

Feng Lingxi coldly glanced at him, “Indeed it’s not difficult, but I don’t want to play this game with you. If it’s inconvenient, I’ll take my leave.”

Get up, pulling Dugu City to leave. A leisurely voice came from behind, Luo Li's calm and composed tone made Feng Lingxi very unhappy. There was a feeling that she was being controlled by the overall situation, making her feel passive.

"Don't you want to know about the Yao people I can tell you."

Feng Lingxi curled her lips into a sneer, turned to look at Luoli, and said, "Not interested."

Luoli frowned, looking at Feng Lingxi's eyes, which had changed. "Aren't you the Saintess Why are you not interested This Yao Clan is yours."

"Mine"

Feng Lingxi seemed to have heard the biggest joke, she couldn't help but sneer and question, "Which eye of yours saw that the Yao Clan is mine I don't even know where the Yao Clan is, what place it is. Just because you gave me the identity of a Yao Clan saintess, do I have to want to know about the Yao Clan Why bother The Yao Clan has already caused me enough trouble."

"Without the identity of a Yao Clan Saintess, do you think the Empress Dowager of the Yuan Dynasty would allow you to live"

Luo Li looked at Feng Ling Xi's eyes, which gradually became deep. Did he misread her, or was she pretending

Feng Lingxi smiled, looking at Luo Li's probing eyes, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Then you tell me, with the identity of the Yao Clan Saintess, would I live a good life"

Before Feng Lingxi could reply, she asked again, "If the Saintess of Yaozu was so kind, why didn't anyone from Yaozu protect me when I was attacked a few days ago"

"Aren't there people already assigned to protect you"

Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li, pointing at Xiaoli. "You mean Xiaoli The revered Saintess of the Yao Clan, someone who is respected by all countries, and she only has one person protecting her Is this what you call the glory of a Saintess"

獨孤城聽了風淩兮的話，心裡酸澀的厲害，他知道兮兒不喜歡這瑤族的聖女身份，卻不知道她竟然這般厭惡，她說得冇錯，這瑤族聖女的身份自從落在她身上後，她的處境的確冇有比以前的將軍府四小姐好哪去。

Luo Li looked at Feng Ling Xi's eyes, filled with mockery. She couldn't even utter a single word in response to her words.

After a moment, Luoli said softly, "You're an exception. I never thought there would be a rebellious saintess like you in the Yao clan." they arrived, they informed Feng Lingxi to come down the mountain. Upon receiving the news, Feng Lingxi packed up and handed over the Yao Clan to the elders for management before leaving the Yao Clan...
