Chapter 1299: War Clouds Gather 110

nking about her current identity and situation. She hated Feng Ling Xi so much that she gritted her teeth, wanting to pull Feng Ling Long together to deal with Feng Ling Xi.Fēng Línglóng, however, was..."Are they planning to settle in Linxi County"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, her eyes full of surprise, "They bought a house in Linxi County. Why didn't the county official notify us"

This Lu Mansion, so large a dwelling, caused a stir throughout the city. They didn't even know about their territory.

"This king is also quite puzzled. Why would the Lu family buy such a large mansion in Linxi County Such a big move, and this king didn't even know about it."

"My lord, matters like this are handled by the county government. You needn't concern yourself with them."

Ye Xi kindly reminded, but it drew a cold glare from Dugu City. Ye Xi had been out of sorts lately, and the words she spoke seemed to always fall on deaf ears.

"As the magistrate of Linxi County, I have a duty to know about such a large household. Besides, this Lu family is Xi'er's natal family. If it were anyone else, such a large household settling in Linxi County would certainly be reported. After all, Linxi County borders the frontier, and new arrivals are strictly vetted."

"My Lord, I shall go investigate this at once."

Ye Xi hurriedly left, muttering to herself under her breath, "Too much talking is a mistake. I should have kept my mouth shut."

"It seems like we'll be meeting them in the next two days." Dugu City looked at Feng Lingxi, "Have you thought about how to deal with them"

Feng Lingxi’s smile widened at the corner of her lips, “What is there to think about This has already been made clear. It's just like what Lu Nian and the others said, we can probably guess.”

That’s true.

Dugu City saw the wind and was excited, so he didn't say much.

These two days the emperor has stayed with you, it's a good chance to meet your father...

"What father-in-law, he isn't."

Feng Lingxi interrupted Du Gucheng's words, "I told you already, my mother doesn't want to acknowledge relatives. Don't call her that, or if she finds out, she won't recognize you as her son-in-law. Then don't come crying to me."

"Okay, okay, listen to Xier."

獨孤城's voice was filled with helplessness. Watching Feng Lingxi's distressed expression, he knew that Xi'er wanted to see this father of hers, at least to find out what kind of person he truly was.

The news that the Lu family had moved to Linxi County was known throughout the city. Lu Nian stood at the door distributing alms, but his eyes kept searching the crowd for the figure he wanted to see. He didn't see him, and his face fell with disappointment.

"Big brother, didn't she come"

"This little sister is really difficult to deal with. We've caused such a commotion, and she doesn't even come to take a look. How can she be so cold Doesn't she have even a shred of curiosity about what her parents look like"

Lu Nian's tone was full of resignation. Lu Yi and Lu Xuan rolled their eyes, "You're not the first day dealing with her, aren't you familiar with her temper She wouldn't have any interest in this kind of occasion at all."

"So what She's still our Lu family's daughter. You be careful, let your mother hear you, and she'll kick you out." Lu Nian's tone was laced with warning, scaring both Lu Yi and Lu Xuan into silence.

Ye Xi arrived at the street and saw everyone holding rice, their faces beaming with joy. They were all talking about Lu's Mansion, praising their generosity, kindness, how good they were. They talked about how handsome the three sons of the Lu family were and how many girls had fallen for them. One by one, they were the talk of the town.

“I didn't expect the princess's family to be so domineering. They were so generous as soon as they arrived in Linxi County.”

Ye Xi glanced around, even a beggar had two pounds of rice in their hand. This really was...

"Excuse me, sir, I have something to tell you."

Ye Xi stepped forward to stop a beggar, gave him some copper coins, and exchanged his clothes. She smeared dirt on her face and went to the Lu Mansion with a bowl to receive rice.

"Oh well, no use hoping anymore."

Lu Nian sighed and didn't notice Ye Xi, who was dressed like a beggar at all, and dug out two kilograms of rice for him.

"Master Lu, you are a kind and good person, you will surely be rewarded."

Ye Xi lowered her voice, making it sound different from usual. Lu Nian heard the beggar talking to her and nodded, "I didn't expect a beggar like you to be so articulate."

Ye Xi lowered her head and smiled, took the rice, then went out.

"Big brother, what do you say your sister wants us to do in order to come have a look"

Aren't they lively enough

It's such a pity that even for something as generous as this, no one comes to take a look. They really don't know how to join in the fun at all.

"I don't know either, I'm just out of options."

Mrs. Lu walked out and saw that there were only a few people in front of the Lu Mansion gate. She hurriedly walked to Lu Nian's face and lowered her voice, "Has my daughter arrived"

When Lu Nian heard her mother's words, she felt like she wasn't her own daughter.

"Mother, if she had come, we would have notified you long ago. Besides, that younger sister is your husband's daughter, not yours."

"Slap!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Lu Nian immediately received a scolding from Madam Lu. Madam Lu reprimanded unhappily, "What's his, his is mine, what's mine can also be given away, they are all my sons, whoever wants to take him can take him."

"Mother, I am your own flesh and blood."

Lu Nian looked at her own mother with grievance. If she didn't know she was her biological mother, Lu Nian would have suspected they were adopted.

"If you weren't my own flesh and blood, I would have thrown you out ages ago."

Lady Lu hadn't heard any news of Feng Lingxi's arrival, and her tone was full of disdain. What kind of luck was this How did she end up with these three sons The more she looked at them, the more headache she got.

Lu Nian curled her lips. Even if it was her son, she wouldn't be this disgusted, would she

Fortunately, their hearts are strong enough. They have been used to being disliked since they were young, otherwise, this statement from their mother would really break their hearts.

"When I was born, it wasn't a smooth delivery. Do you think I wanted to be your son"

Lu Xuan grumbled in discontent. If he were a daughter, the Lu family and the Nangong family would treat him like a treasure! He wished he were born a girl, but fate had other plans, forcing him into this male body. It wasn't fair!

"It's all father's fault."

Lu Yiqi's gritted teeth, every time he was scorned by his mother, added another layer of resentment towards their father for all three brothers.

As for Lu Hao, he had three sons. He didn't even dare to breathe heavily, after all, they were his.

Ye Xi relayed the information he had gathered at the Lu residence to the King and Queen. After listening, Feng Lingxi's brows furrowed slightly.

"Well, it seems I've disappointed them by not having a past today."

"You're disappointed, but you didn't even see the look in their eyes, how heartbroken they were."

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi's tattered clothes, "Go change your clothes, you worked hard."

"No hardship, no hardship. It is my honor to serve the Queen."

How dare he complain, even the King wouldn't dare to speak out, let alone him.

"Little Li, prepare a gift and come with me to the Lu Residence."

"Go to Lu's residence"

Dugu City looked at Feng Lingxi, "Then this king will accompany you..."

Feng Lingxi stopped him, "No need, I'll go myself. You can rest assured that I'm not going to cause trouble, but to thank them for their charity in the city. As the Princess Consort of Chen, it is my duty to do so."

> evening, this hypocritical facade truly disgusted her. Feng Lingxi felt like she couldn't keep up the act anymore."Have you found out who assassinated you This palace will avenge you."Feng Ling xi sh...
