Chapter 1441: War Clouds Gather (262)

raid it would be in trouble.The maid served up pastries and tea. Feng Lingxi poured tea for Dugu Yan, and Dugu Yan then spoke."Xier, how did you suddenly disappear that night Are you hiding from me be..."Uncle."

Tao Su changed his words, listening to Lu Hao's bitter words, he curiously glanced at Feng Ling Xi's side, and more or less understood the meaning in Lu Hao's words.

"I'll take you for a spin, come here often when you have time."

Tao Su nodded and followed Lu Hao, listening to him talk about the Lu family. Occasionally, he would ask about Feng Lingxi, and Lu Hao would answer. However, after finishing, he would remind Tao Su not to tell Feng Lingxi, lest she be unhappy.

Tao Su also learned about Feng Lingxi's marriage from Lu Hao's words. What surprised him the most was that Feng Lingxi had主動 proposed a divorce. This impressed him quite a bit. A woman divorcing her husband while pregnant is no easy feat.

A woman carries so much, and when others hear it, they easily feel sympathy.

Fei Feng Ling's appearance doesn't seem like she needs someone to take care of her at all. As an overly strong woman, she just makes people want to pity her even more.

Chen Wangfu

Dugu Cheng had received his third letter from Tianxiang Building. The letter confirmed that the woman who appeared in Xigu Country was indeed Feng Lingxi, but it couldn't confirm whether the child by her side was hers.

News of Feng Lingxi's appearance had spread throughout the Yuan Dynasty. This was no longer a secret within the palace walls. The Empress Dowager summoned Dugu City, but he refused, citing illness. Dugu City knew that his mother wished to inquire about Xi'er's situation.

Over the years, the Empress Dowager's attitude towards Feng Lingxi has changed drastically. She is no longer the same mother-in-law who treated Xi'er as her own daughter. Although Dugu Cheng allowed Luo Qin'yi to enter the mansion for five years, he never favored her or had a son with her. He arranged so many women for him that the back garden of Chen Wangfu was almost full, but no matter what methods they used, these women couldn't even see Dugu Cheng once, let alone give birth to a child for him.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager blamed all these misfortunes on Feng Lingxi. Over five years, over a dozen women had married into the Chen Wangfu, but none of them were willing to stay. Some ran away, while others couldn't bear the humiliation and sought to be disposed of.

Dugu City didn't care at all about what the women in the back garden were doing. He lived in the courtyard where Feng Lingxi got married, every flower and grass there was taken care of by himself, even Luo Qin'i couldn't enter casually.

"My lord, the chief of the Luo clan has arrived."

Ye Xi brought Luoli in and saw Dugu Cheng tending to the flowers and plants in the courtyard. That black attire with white hair was particularly eye-catching. Luoli raised an eyebrow and walked towards Dugu Cheng.

"The flowers and plants here are indeed cultivated very well by the Crown Prince."

Luo Li sat down, and Dugu Cheng washed his hands and sat across from her. After offering tea, he looked at Luo Li's increasingly mature face, "What brings you to see this King Just say it."

"With such an attitude, at least I'm Wan'er's master. Don't you worry about Wan'er getting angry if she finds out"

Luo Li poured herself a glass of water and took a sip. The smile on her lips widened, ignoring Du Gu Cheng's cold attitude, she continued, "I'm going to Xigu Kingdom for a trip. My Yao Clan's Saint Lord has appeared, and she also has two children now. I'm very curious, who are these two children"

Du Gu Cheng clenched his fist around the cup, suddenly crushing it. Blood flowed down his hand.

Luo Li furrowed her brow, looking at Du Gu Cheng's suppressed anger in his eyes, and said with a faint smile, "What, do you care who the child belongs to"

Dugu City's hands, which had been enduringly still, trembled violently. He couldn't believe that Xi'er would have a child with someone else.

That child, she definitely isn't his.

I won't believe you until things are clear.

"Whether you believe it or not, do you think I care if you do"

Luo Li sipped her tea, a contented smile on her face.

Over the years, Feng Lingxi has been truly hidden deep. Even he couldn't find her. He had to admit that he underestimated Feng Lingxi. She truly lived up to being Yao Wan Ying's daughter. If not for the fact that he still knew some traces of Yao Wan Ying these years, he would have suspected that Feng Lingxi was hidden away by Yao Wan Ying.

"When are you leaving"

獨孤城 raised his eyes to look at Luoli, "This king will go with you."

"Pathetic! I went there because I was looking for her. What are you doing there"

Luo Li ruthlessly crushed Dugu City's thoughts, "Don't forget the current situation in the court. Could you leave now The current emperor is unwell. If you leave now, do you think they would agree"

"This is my business, you don't need to worry about it."

Dugu Cheng spoke in a composed voice, “Luo Li, as you ordered, this king has taken care of everything. It's time to strike back.”

"No, it hasn't started yet. Don't worry, Crown Prince Chen. You've finally gotten used to a comfortable life. There are countless beauties in the backyard, and you don't lack Feng Lingxi. Besides, I know that Prince Huangfu Qingyun of the Chao Dynasty still hasn't given up on Feng Lingxi. When he learns the news, he plans to go find her."

"Didn't he already get married What is he going to Xier for"

Dugu Cheng angrily spat out, his hand clutching the cup was full of blood, but he didn't feel any pain at all, only the killing intent in his eyes grew colder and colder.

Luo Li raised an eyebrow. “You're right, you're already married. Why would you go looking for Feng Ling Xi You two are divorced, with a divorce decree…”

"This King tore it up long ago, and furthermore, this King never agreed to a divorce with her. It was she who agreed to it."

Dugu City's eyes flickered, landing on Luo Li. His gaze held a warning.

"I've done everything I promised you. Don't even think about her, or I will end our cooperation." Dugu Cheng's handsome face was chillingly cold; he'd already done too much these years.

Luo Li frowned and nodded slightly.

"Alright, just kidding. The reason I didn't bring you this time is to prevent you from getting into a fight with her after meeting. Don't forget your current situation, all your hard work over the years shouldn't go to waste. Besides, isn't it good for you to stay here as the Crown Prince Why bother going out and showing off What if this angers Feng Lingxi and backfires That wouldn't be good."

Dugu Cheng remained silent. Was this why he stayed here, waiting for Xi'er to appear

He waited for five years, thinking Xi'er would never appear again. Now that she's here, if he doesn't go to her, what will Xi'er think

She has always hated this King.

獨孤城’s voice was heavy with suppression, looking at Luo Li, “This time if I don’t go, this king is worried that she will continue to hide from me in the future.”

"You're overthinking it. If she truly wanted to hide from you, why would she reveal her whereabouts She managed to hide for five years, but she can't possibly hide forever. Besides, Wan'er will be ten soon and go to the Yao Clan. She wouldn't stay hidden. If I'm not mistaken, her appearance now is mainly for Wan'er."

Dugu Cheng knew Feng Lingxi would come out for Wan'er, but she would also disappear again after that.

"May she truly be willing to stay for Wan'er, even if she never forgives this king for the rest of her life."

Only Dugu City didn't know that Feng Lingxi had never hated him. She said that if he betrayed her, she would only leave him and wouldn't hate him.
