Chapter 1427: Smoke Signals Rise 248

lead her to attack Dugu City."Li Wuyan, please take good care of him."Li Wuyan responded, looking at Feng Lingxi's forehead, "Your wound..."Feng Ling xi hurriedly reached out to touch her forehead, th..."Go have your fight somewhere else, don't delay my dinner."

A cold voice rang out, and everyone's gaze fell upon the stunning woman who walked in from outside the inn. Seeing her walk past and sit beside the siblings, the two immediately changed their expressions and smiled obsequiously, "Mother, my brother and I were just playing."

"Feng Siqi, I am your brother."

Feng Siyu glared at his younger sister, who was born just one minute after him. She insisted on being the older sister, which he found ridiculous. Her temper was terrible; she was always competing with him for the title of eldest sibling.

Feng Siqi was about to retort, but seeing her mother's displeasure, she quickly said, "My brother is just my brother. We grew up together anyway, so there's no need to distinguish between older and younger."

Humph, I knew he'd take advantage of him. Feng Siyu wore a displeased expression, but she didn't dare say anything more for fear of displeasing her mother.

"Mother, I asked the waiter to bring all the signature dishes here. Let's have a good meal later."

Feng Siyu spoke up, watching the waiter bring out the dishes and quickly placed the bowls and chopsticks in front of his mother. Although only four years old, Feng Siyu was indeed quite tall, looking like a five or six-year-old child.

"Word on the street is that the former Crown Princess Feng Lingxi of the Yuan Dynasty has reappeared."

The people at the next table started gossiping again, only this time their target was Feng Lingxi, who had disappeared from public view in recent years.

"Mother, they are talking about you."

Feng Siqi whispered, glancing timidly at her mother. Seeing her expression calm and composed, as if she hadn't spoken a word, she felt even more uneasy.

The beautiful woman before them, adorned with two dolls, was Feng Lingxi who had disappeared for five years. Now that she had just come out and heard people gossiping about her, she found it somewhat surprising.

It's been five years, I can't believe she's still so famous in Xiguo. People here at the teahouse and tavern still talk about her so much.

Feng Lingxi served her daughter a bowl of soup and said, "Eat your dinner. Don't worry about other people's business."

Feng Siyu gave Feng Siqi a look, and Feng Siqi obediently lowered her head to eat without asking any more questions.

"I've heard about it too. It seems this Feng Lingxi appeared in our Xigu Kingdom."

"Don't you know that Feng Lingxi isn't just the princess consort of the Daming Dynasty, she is also the illegitimate daughter of Lu Hao, the head of the Lu family in our Xigu Kingdom. The current emperor has even said that anyone who finds Feng Lingxi and provides any information about her will be rewarded with one hundred taels of gold. If we happen to meet her, it would be fantastic!"

"Isn't that so But Feng Lingxi is really good at hiding. People have been looking for her for five years, and no one knows where she is."

"Do you know what she looks like If you don't even know what she looks like, you might not recognize her even if she was standing right in front of you."

A few people at the next table were talking and started to cheer, but they didn't say anything else. They just ate and drank as usual.

"One hundred taels of gold."

Feng Siyu glanced at his mother. His mother's news was actually worth one hundred taels of gold, so perhaps the emperor of Xigu Kingdom liked her more.

"After dinner, we'll set off."

Feng Lingxi gave Feng Siyu a warning look with her eyes. Feng Siyu hurriedly finished his meal, then asked the waiter to prepare some dried food for them, which he put in his satchel. Only then did he get up and tidy up.

After leaving the inn and replenishing their supplies, Feng Lingxi set off with her son and daughter, driving a carriage away.

"Mother, where are we going now"

On my way back home, I'll stop by and give Master the things I bought.

The carriage was crammed full of necessities, every inch packed. These were all she had brought down the mountain to buy for her master this time. Thanks to her master, these past five years had been safe; otherwise, they would have surely found her.

"Mother, should we tell Grandfather about what happened today"

Feng Siyu poked his head out and sat beside Feng Lingxi. This was the first time he heard outsiders discuss his mother like this, and moreover, his mother didn't seem happy today.

Just say what you want to say.

Feng Lingxi was riding in a carriage, her mind full of the news she had heard since coming down the mountain. She never expected that even after five years of disappearing, people would still be looking for her. She understood why the Lu family was searching for her, but what could Duguo Cheng possibly want from her

Does she still live

Five years ago, she came out of Linxi County. After walking through the mountains for a day, she discovered that someone was following her. She found a place to change her clothes and disguise herself, slipping away from their sight. She didn't know where to go, so she randomly walked towards the west of Xiaxia. Unexpectedly, she reached the border of Xigu Kingdom. After entering a small town, just as she was about to find a place to stay, she saw a group of beggars bullying an old man. She couldn't bear it and stepped in to help the old man repay his debt. The old man then clung to her, following her everywhere, demanding food and lodging.

At that time, she was very lonely in Xigu Country alone. The old man followed her everywhere. Wherever Feng Lingxi went, he would follow. When she had nowhere to go, the old man asked her if she wanted to go to his house. Feng Lingxi agreed, and only when she arrived did she realize that the old man was not a beggar at all, but a hermit with high martial arts skills and medical skills. He had always wanted to accept an apprentice but had been unsuccessful. After Feng Lingxi appeared, he immediately discovered her and followed her for several days, staging this play. Feng Lingxi didn't want to be his disciple, but coincidentally, she had traveled a long distance, and her unborn child was unstable. The old man saved her and also allowed Feng Lingxi to witness his medical skills. Thinking that she had nowhere else to go, she became his disciple.

She was carrying twins, and coupled with an unstable fetal position, Feng Ling Xi resided on the mountain until she gave birth to her two children, a brother and sister.

After giving birth to a child, Feng Lingxi followed her master to the mountains to learn medicine and self-defense martial arts. It was for this reason that she stayed there for five years.

"Mother, are you not happy today"

Feng Siyu saw that his mother was unhappy, and he cautiously asked, "Is it because they said something about you, Mother Is that why you're upset"

"No."

Feng Siqi pulled Feng Siyu back into the carriage and whispered, "Brother, Mother's in a bad mood. She must be because of what they said."

Feng Siyu nodded, looking at Feng Siqi, "The Lu family, the Crown Prince, and the current Emperor, they are all looking for mother."

"Keep it down."

Feng Siqi hurriedly pulled Feng Siyu, her chubby little hand covering his mouth, staring at Feng Siyu, “Don’t let Mother hear this.”

"Anyway, whoever comes looking for their mother, we won't let them see her. They're all bad people."

Feng Siyu's handsome little face was full of displeasure, his slightly cold eyes had the flavor of loneliness, although he was young, he was gifted. He learned martial arts from Feng Lingxi's master, and also learned a lot of medical skills. What was most admirable was his immunity to poison.

Since Feng Lingxi's master was worried about the siblings being poisoned in the future, he began giving them medicinal baths after they were born. He created a unique immunity to poisons for both of them, ensuring that no poison could harm them.

"That King of the First Rank is probably our father."

Feng Siqi looked at her brother, “They said that our mother was the Princess Consort of Chen, so the King of Chen is our father.” and a chill permeated the air."Fourth King, my subordinate is here on the Empress Dowager's order to invite Lord Feng Lingxi of the Yao clan to the palace for a visit.""Yao Clan Saint Lord"Luo Li's c...
