Chapter 1200: The Smoke of War Rises 11

e Empress, seeing Feng Lingxi's anxious look, said calmly, "I didn't mean to blame you. I was just complaining to you a bit. I treat you like my own sister and just wanted to have a chat."Feng Lingxi..."Your Highness is jesting, how dare a lowly subject..."

"Hold on, that's not right," Du Gu Cheng interrupted, "The way to be a good husband says I should indeed be inferior to you. This king genuinely wants to know what methods there are to make the Crown Princess more respectful towards this king."

"The Princess Consort of Chen is truly a heroine among women. This commoner dares not speak rashly."

Dugu City waved his hand, pretending to be annoyed and said, "What a female hero, this is because she is the Saint Lord of Yao Clan, this king has to give way to her. She's not gentle and virtuous at all, she doesn't put this king in her eyes, it's really a headache."

"Perhaps the Crown Princess of Chen has the King of Chen in her heart."

"It's all lies. She has no regard for this king, except to bully and exploit him."

Du Gucheng spoke like a wronged husband, endlessly complaining about Feng Lingxi, as if he had suffered an immense injustice.

If she truly had me in her heart, she wouldn't show me any disrespect. Not even in the bedroom...

Dugu Cheng swallowed his words. The male protagonist's eyes lit up noticeably before he quickly concealed it.

Dugu Cheng waved his hands impatiently.

In short, everyone sees that this king is following her lead. In reality, it's just that she's bullying me. Your skills in managing your wife, this king truly wants to learn from you."

This remark from Dugu Cheng made the male lead's expression hesitate. The outside rumor was that the Prince of Chen feared his wife, and now it was suddenly brought up in front of him. At this moment, it was really hard to know what to say.

"If you have a way, just say it and let me hear it. It would also give me some face."

"This…"

The master hesitated. This King wanted him to teach him how to please a wife. If this got out, the King's wife would surely have him chopped up.

"The commoner dares not."

獨孤城臉色一沉， “本王命令你，說。”

The male householder was so scared that he knelt down and timidly said to Du Gucheng, "I... I did it."

Windling and the woman went out to milk the sheep. Although the milk was fragrant, it had a strong gamy smell. Windling didn't know if Wan'er would be able to accept it, but she herself could bear it.

"Your Highness, the goat's milk is ready. It smells so good."

Feng Lingxi followed the woman in, a smile on her face that made her appear gentle and kind. However, after being scolded by Dugu Cheng just now, the master's eyes toward Feng Lingxi changed.

"Let me taste this."

The woman quickly brought a bowl and offered it to Dugu City, her attitude respectful, daring not to be disrespectful in the slightest.

Dugu Cheng sniffed, his handsome eyebrows furrowed, "This smell..."

"It's got a strong smell, but it's very nutritious."

Feng Lingxi winked at Dugu City, and Dugu City put down the goat's milk. "This king doesn't like this taste."

Then don't waste it.

Feng Lingxi brought the goat's milk to Wan'er, who was having a great time playing with Youyou. The little ones could play even without talking. The smell of goat's milk made Youyou drool. The woman hurriedly brought a bowl for Youyou. Watching the two drink, Feng Lingxi’s smile widened.

"I told you that Wan'er would like it."

"My beloved said, 'Then let's buy two ewes to bring home.'"

"This milking is too difficult, I've learned it but still can't do it. Otherwise, let my sister-in-law come to our house and milk the sheep for us. Youyou and Wan'er will also get along with her. When we go back, along with the housekeeper's daughter, the three children will have company."

"Do as your beloved wife says."

Dugu Cheng could be said to have shown his fear of his wife to the fullest. The male host looked unwilling, but he dared not speak out to stop her. After all, when the princess consort spoke, he couldn't refuse.

Feng Lingxi looked at the male owner, "I pay my sister-in-law every month, is that okay"

The male host's expression stiffened slightly. He looked at the woman who was bowing her head and avoiding his gaze. He suppressed the unease in his heart and nodded.

"It is a blessing for me to be able to serve the Crown Princess. I will follow the Crown Princess's arrangements wholeheartedly."

"My lord, this pasture needs someone to manage it in full authority. Perhaps we should just let him take charge."

Dugu Cheng flattered Feng Lingxi, "My beloved wife is right, we should indeed find someone to manage this. Whoever my beloved wife says should be in charge, that's who it should be."

"Thank you, Lord."

Feng Ling Xi was in a good mood. She looked outside. Why hadn't Xi arrived with her people yet this night Could something have happened

"How come Xi hasn't returned yet tonight Won't she have run into an ambush These bodies out here need to be dealt with, otherwise we burn them right here. It's better to be safe than sorry." Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City. Over thirty corpses; burning them would be more straightforward.

Dugu Cheng looked at the male owner beside him, his eyes flickering, noticing that Dugu Cheng was looking at him, his gaze converged, but his expression could not hide his heart's panic.

"Wait a little longer. If the person hasn't arrived yet, we'll have the shepherds help dispose of the body."

"That's all we can do."

Feng Lingxi wore a look of helplessness, showing no intention of leaving. The master of the house, seeing their stance, spoke up, “Prince Chen, Princess Chen, my wife and I will go prepare some food for you.”

"You've worked hard."

The male host hurriedly pulled the woman out, watching the fear in her eyes, Feng Lingxi gave Dugu Cheng a look. This really needed to be watched closely, she couldn't let anything happen to her.

They hadn't been gone long when Ye Xi arrived with her army. Leading the charge was Feng Yu Mo. Upon hearing of the incident, Ye Xi brought three thousand soldiers to thoroughly investigate.

Sister, brother-in-law.

Feng Yu Mo turned over and dismounted, looking at the corpses not far away. "How did they all die"

Dugu Cheng nodded, "Have the bodies all burned. Also..."

Dugu Cheng lowered his voice and said, "All the men here are bandits. The original men have all been taken away. The remaining women, children, and elders are the people of this place. Later, gather all the villagers and separate the men from the women and detain them all."

Feng Yu Mo heard the news, although surprised, he quickly understood.

"Understood."

Feng Lingxi walked to Youyou's face, "Youyou, follow us later, don't run around."

YoYo didn't see his mother and panicked, wanting to cry. Feng LingXi hurriedly hugged him, "Your mother went to cook for you. You'll eat soon."

Upon hearing this, Youyou didn't cry. Wan'er held his hand and continued to play, but Tian was truly moved.

The arrival of the army made the herdsmen somewhat panicked. Feng Yu Mo ordered the soldiers to gather all the herdsmen together, separating men and women. The terrified expressions on the herdsmen's faces, if one didn't know they weren't the original herdsmen, would have truly been fooled.

"Everyone, please stay calm. I've gathered you all because of today's robbery. To better investigate this matter, please cooperate and answer my questions. Once we're done, you're free to go."

Feng Yu Mo coldly opened his mouth, his sharp eyes sweeping over the men present. Looking at their honest and naive appearances, if it weren't for his sister's words, he would really have been deceived by them.

"Yu Mo, don't be too fierce, you'll scare the common people."

Dugu Cheng spoke, "Ask each of them individually and clarify what happened. Make a record."

Feng Yu Mo moved a stool and began to investigate. All the villagers were trembling with fear, while Duguo City watched from the side. Taking advantage of the opportunity to check, Feng Ling Xi gathered all the women beside her, using the pretext of checking to compare them one by one, to see if it was true as the eldest sister-in-law had said that all the men had been taken away. highly of her medical skills, spreading rumors that make her name buzz throughout the city.Feng Yu Xi never expected that, as the empress, she would be less respected than Feng Ling Xi, the fourth pr...
