Chapter 660: Yao's Turmoil 30
odded. "Back then, when his father banished him from the palace, it was actually to protect him. He just didn't expect that he would come back."Feng Lingxi thought to herself and said to Dugu Yu, “Did...“Perhaps the Three Elders truly haven’t taken my words to heart. Why does Yao Chu's crime need me to repeat it to you Or are you saying, in the eyes of the Three Elders, I am merely a girl in her teens, someone to be disregarded My words lack the authority to warrant your consideration”
"My subordinates didn't mean it that way."
With a fearless look on his face, Yao Zhi seemed to be saying he wouldn't yield even to the wind and would stand firm to the end.
Feng Lingxi sneered, curled her lips, and gave him a cold glance.
Even if you don't believe me, you should believe the chieftain's judgment. Or are you saying that in the eyes of the three elders, the chieftain's words are not something you can trust
When Yao Zhi saw Luo Li leaving, his face changed.
He knew the methods of the Yao Clan, as they were incredibly cunning and ruthless.
"My subordinate meant no disrespect, he merely wished to clarify matters and provide an explanation to the Yao Clan."
Feng Lingxi let out a cold snort, "Do I not owe the Yao Clan an explanation, or is it that only the explanations of the three elders count as explanations"
Yao Zhi clenched his fists, the anger in his eyes hidden but not escaping Feng Ling Xi's gaze. She gave him a cold look and reminded him in a frigid tone, "Third Elder, I've said my piece, please remember it well. I don't want to repeat myself."
"What happened"
From afar, she saw Yao Zhi come to find Feng Ling Xi. Looking at Feng Ling Xi's cold and sharp eyes, she walked up to Yao Zhi and said in a warning tone, "Third Elder, didn't I tell you not to disturb the Saintess's rest You still don't listen to me"
Yao hastily knelt down, "Chieftain, please calm your anger. I had no such intention."
Luo Li looked at Feng Ling Xi with a cold gaze, "Step back, come to me if there's anything."
Yao Zhi hurriedly got up, lowered his head, and his unwilling eyes swept over Feng Ling Xi's face full of coldness, leaving in anger.
"Didn't he put you in a difficult position"
Luo Li looked at Feng Ling Xi, "Just as I finished making the arrangements, I heard they said Yao Zhi came to find you, so I hurried back, afraid he would do you harm."
"As long as I have fifteen, he can't hurt me."
"Fear the unexpected."
Luo Li was thinking about her miscarriage, feeling guilty in her heart.
Thank you.
Feng Lingxi said a thanks, "Thank you for your trouble this time, chief."
Luo Li's words reached her lips, then she swallowed them back. Feng Ling Xi saw that he had finished speaking, and returned to the Sheng Nü Temple. She was a little tired and wanted to rest.
"Keep her safe."
Luo Li instructed Shi Wu, "Don't let anyone near her."
After giving his instructions, Luoli finally left.
December 21st
Early in the morning, Feng Lingxi got up. The carriage had already been prepared outside and was waiting for her. The news that Feng Lingxi was going back to Linxi County to celebrate the New Year had spread throughout Yaozu. Although many were unhappy about it, no one dared to speak out against it.
The chieftain spoke, and personally escorted the saintess back to her husband's side in Linxi County for the New Year. They could only obey and wait to attend the enthronement ceremony after the New Year.
Feng Lingxi got into the carriage and looked at the Yao people who were sending her off. She saw the different expressions in their eyes, then lowered the curtain and closed her eyes to rest.
The carriage left the Yao village, and then the people of the Yao village surrounded Yao Zhi and Yao Yi and began to question them.
"Elder Two, what does the Holy Maiden mean by this The Yao clan has suffered such a great misfortune. Instead of staying to handle clan affairs during the Lunar New Year, the Holy Maiden has gone back to spend time with her husband. She simply doesn't care about the Yao clan."
"Do not speak ill of the Saint behind her back, remember the High Elder's teachings."
Yao Yi reminded, looking at Yao Zhi's fleeting cold gaze, ordered his men to all go back, unwilling to argue with Yao Zhi any further, for fear that he would end up like Yao Chu in the end.
```Let me know if you have any other questions. ```
At this time, Yao Zhi was naturally like Yao Yi, comforting his clansmen so that they wouldn't spread the word to the chieftain. If they did, he would be found guilty and there would be no way for him to clear his name.
On the carriage
Xiaoli and Shiwu sat beside Feng Lingxi, Luo Li sat opposite her, watching Feng Lingxi close her eyes and meditate. There was no sign that she wanted to speak. Several times, Luo Li tried to start a conversation with her, but when it reached her lips, she swallowed it back down.
Today is still a snowy day, just like every other day, snowflakes are falling all over the place. The road isn't easy to walk on, carriages are moving especially slowly, no one is talking, and you can clearly hear the sound of horses' hooves outside.
Along the way, Yingwei brought a lot of people to secretly protect them. Luoli was worried about the dangers on the road and sent people to protect them all the way.
"Do you have something to tell me"
After walking for more than an hour, Feng Lingxi suddenly opened her eyes and spoke, breaking the oppressive silence.
Actually, during this time in the Yao tribe, she knew all the rumors and gossip within the clan. She chose not to respond, not because she was unwilling to clarify, but because she knew that doing so would only make things worse. Besides, she didn't feel the need to explain herself to them.
Because no matter what she clarified, no one believed her words.
"Returning to Linxi County like this, I don't know how to explain it to Dugu City. When you and he parted ways for the Yao tribe, it wasn't like this now. Now, I think you can't hide it from him."
Feng Lingxi watched Luo Li. He hesitated in the carriage for so long, was he going to tell her this
If you can't hide it, don't hide it.
Luoli was a little surprised, Feng Lingxi said again, "I thought you would tell me the rumors the Yao clan spread about us."
"Those things you don't have to worry about. People will talk, whatever they say is their business. I'll handle it when I get back."
These days he had warned them, but just to avoid bothering Feng Lingxi, he turned a blind eye and waited until they returned. Then, he would handle things cleanly and make sure she wouldn't hear these rumors after going back.
Feng Lingxi responded with a voice, then closed her eyes again.
Luo Li glanced at her, her eyes drifting towards outside the carriage. All along the way, she only heard the sound of horse hooves.
Linxi County
Shadow Six's sudden appearance caused Dugu City to hurriedly get up, his excited heart almost leaping out of his chest.
The Saintess descended the mountain this morning, and should arrive in the evening. Yingliu came specifically to inform His Royal Highness.
"Xi'er went down the mountain."
Du Gucheng's face was filled with delight, the joy at his lips making Ying Liu frown as he reminded, "The Holy Maiden has been working hard these days and her body is a bit weak, so please take good care of her, Your Highness."
"I understand."
Du Gu Cheng's eyes dimmed for a moment before quickly returning to normal. He knew about Xi Er's condition just by seeing her.
"Shadow Six bids farewell."
After informing Dugu Cheng, Ying Liu left to meet the Holy Maiden. Meanwhile, Dugu Cheng made arrangements for Xi'er to return home and feel the warmth of family, specially instructing someone to prepare accordingly.
"My lord, should we tell the princess about Yu Mo"
Since Feng Yumo's return, many doctors have been consulted, but none could determine the cause of his blindness. His eyes were not injured, yet he lost his sight inexplicably.
Dugu Cheng looked solemn. "Let's talk about it when Xi'er comes back."
Xi'er knew that if she let Yu Mo check, he would definitely get angry. Yu Mo had begged her not to say anything, but Xi'er was also very conflicted about what to do.
"Go tell Yumo."
As night fell, Dugu City sent someone to inform Huangfu Qingyun that Xi'er would be there in the evening. This was so that Huangfu Qingyun could be happy. Xi, “You are not allowed to say no, you must leave, this is my order.”If we don't leave now, we're probably going to be unable to leave later.Here is the translation of your provided text, with HTML...
