Chapter 344: Seizing Power 99
he Princess's temperament is so cold and aloof. You toyed with her back then, schemed to marry her into the manor, and even deceived her. How could she possibly have any good feelings for you""Alright..."Mother promises you, Xi'er, just know that everything Mother does is for Xi'er's sake, and that is enough."
Feng Lingxi responded and looked at her mother's gentle eyes. She thought, "If Mother could tell her everything she did, it would be great. That way, she would also know what Mother was doing."
Yao Wan Ying got up, “Xi’er, how is your father I heard they said he was badly injured.”
"He's fine, I treated his wounds. Don't worry, mother."
Yao WanYing nodded, "It's fine."
"Mother, may I ask you a question"
Feng Ling hesitated for a moment, seeing her mother nod, and then asked, "Didn't you say that you didn't want to care about his life or death Why take the risk to save him"
"He can't die."
Yao Wan'ying grew serious, looking into her daughter's puzzled eyes. "Mother told you this way because when Mother married your father, she truly liked him. Over the years, his actions have worn away Mother's feelings for him. But if you want to clear your father-in-law of the charge of poisoning the late emperor, you will still need his help. After all, he has some status in court. In the Great Yuan Dynasty, we can only rely on him to help the Fourth Prince."
"Mother, do you think he will help Dugu City Although he is my father, he is also the father of Feng Linglong and Feng Yu Xi. Can he agree to help us while putting Feng Yu Xi and Feng Linglong in danger" She didn't believe her mother's words. If he could really help her, he wouldn't have done such a thing.
She had given up all hope for this father.
“That wasn’t an option before, he has no choice now. The court is using him to get the Purple Star on you and has already abandoned him. If he’s smart, he’ll help the Fourth Prince. Besides, his life was saved by you. If he refuses, you can take his life anytime.”
Yao WanYing said it very straightforwardly, she knew Xi'er really disliked Feng Aotian and was angry at everything he did.
She was just as capable, but they needed Feng Aotian's help right now. Her daughter couldn't be blamed for poisoning the former emperor. Even if Xi'er went to marry into the Aohan dynasty as a princess, she would still need Feng Aotian's help to ensure the plan succeeded without fail.
"Since Mama said so, Xier will follow Mama's orders."
I hope Feng Aotian won't let her down again, and won't let their mother down. If he can change, they're still family, and she will treat him well. But if his heart is still not with her and his mother, then don't blame her for disowning him.
"Go see him. When Mother is better, we'll return to the Araw Summer and ask his opinion."
"Mother, does she hope he returns to the Yuan Dynasty himself or comes with us"
Let him do as he pleases.
Feng Lingxi nodded and left with Xiao Li.
Yao Wan'ying got up, walked out of the room, and looked at the sky outside. A figure flew down from the air.
"My Lord, the latest news is that Dugu Xiu led an army of 300,000 back to the Great Yuan Dynasty overnight. Yao Feifei has also left with him."
"What about the others"
"Never seen."
Yaowan Ying raised an eyebrow. Yaofei Fei went to the Great Yuan Dynasty. In that case, if she wanted to catch her, she'd probably have to go to the Great Yuan Dynasty.
"I understand. Keep an eye on things and let me know if you hear anything."
Yao Wanying pondered for a moment, then inquired of the maidservants in the mansion to take her to meet Feng Aotian.
Feng Ling Xi's appearance caused Feng Ao Tian to hastily sit up. Seeing her arrive, Feng Ao Tian wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say
"It seems like the injuries are recovering well."
Feng Aotian nodded, seeing her approach. He struggled internally for a while before forcing himself to ask, "Xier, is your mother alright"
"You still have a little conscience. She's good, at least she's better than you are now."
Feng Aotian's expression stiffened, looking at Feng Lingxi, his expression awkward.
"That's good, she came to save me that day. Seeing her injuries were pretty serious, I just asked."
The atmosphere instantly turned tense. Feng Aotian's words made Feng Lingxi a little angry. If it weren't for her mother saving him, she wouldn't have been injured. It was just that her mother said she wanted to save him, thinking about the blood flowing from his body on hers, so she endured it.
My mother told me to ask you, after you've healed, will you go back or go with her to the Arid Summer
Feng Aotian's expression froze, "To the Summer Wilderness"
"Well, you're not keen"
Feng Lingxi raised her eyebrows, the displeasure in her expression causing Feng Aotiantian to frown. “It’s not that I’m unwilling, but that I can’t. I am a general of the Great Yuan Dynasty. Although something like this has happened, if I go to the Huangxia Dynasty, I will drag down the entire General's Mansion.”
Feng Lingxi heard his words and let out a cold snort, "You still can't bear to part with your precious children, can you"
Feng Aotian hesitated for a moment before speaking, “Xi’er, I know you hate me, and I know I don’t deserve to be your father. I still say the same thing: I can’t go to the Aoxiang Dynasty. Even if you hate me, this is my decision. If I left General’s Mansion, it would be treason. If the emperor punishes me, what will you do”
"Why do I have such compassion"
Feng Lingxi let out a sarcastic laugh, “Could it be that the General’s Mansion still has something to do with me” Back when she was stripped of her rank, they didn't even treat her like family. No one spoke up for her, only Du Gu Yan and the Empress Dowager who turned against her and issued a warrant for her arrest.
"Xier, he's right. He can't go to the Aoxia Dynasty. Not only that, but Mother must return to the General's Mansion in Dayuan with him."
Feng Lingxi hurriedly stepped forward to support her, her tone reproachful. "Mother, why have you come"
"Mother just received news that Yao Feifei and Dugu Xiu have returned to Dayuan Dynasty. Mother is going back with your father to Dayuan Dynasty. She's worried that Dugu Xiu might make a big move, plus with Yao Feifei having the Yaozhu map, mother doesn't feel safe."
"Yao Feifei went to Beijing with Dugu Xiu, could it be that Dugu Xiu really took Yao Feifei in"
Seeing the worry in her daughter's eyes, Yao WanYing explained, "Xier, I have already informed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he will come to pick you up and return to Huaxia. On the eighth day of the next month, you will go to Dayuan Dynasty as a princess of peace. We will see each other in our capital then."
"With Princess Consort"
Feng Aotian looked at Feng Lingxi, seeing her eyes turn cold, a warning gaze that made Feng Aotian's body tremble, hurriedly looking away.
“Feng Aotian, if you still have a shred of compassion for me and my daughter, then cooperate with us.”
"Wan Ying, what do you and Xi'er want to do"
Feng Aotian heard that she wanted to go back with him, and he actually became uneasy, having a fear he'd never felt before.
Now WanYing is the Saint Lord of the Yao clan, a person the Empress Dowager desperately wants to capture. She follows him back, and if she makes even the slightest mistake, he will be beheaded because of her.
"You needn't know what I'm going to do. Suffice it to say, if you cooperate, you and your family will be safe. If you don't, I can't guarantee the safety of your sons."
Yao Wanying's words not only startled Feng Aotian, but also Wind Lingxi, who was taken aback by her mother's statement.
Her mother had threatened him in such a way, indeed, to deal with Feng Aotiān, one must attack his most vulnerable spot. Only then could he be completely persuaded.ped out of the inn, Dugu Yu spoke first."Do you truly believe everything I say"Why not believeDugu City looked into the distance, "This king thought you came here again to take back the military power...
