Chapter 707: The Chaos of the Jade

aid. Feng Lingxi held the teacup to her nose, inhaling the scent of the fine Longjing tea. It smelled good. Just as she was about to take a sip, someone knocked the cup from her hand, sending it crash...Feng Lingxi responded, the news came as no surprise to her. Empress Cen had been watching her so closely, with spies in every corner of Linxi County. Once she took office, Empress Cen's faction would surely know. Her descent from the mountain meant it was time for her to return to the capital.

It's just a matter of time. It would be great if we could drag it to the end of January.

Feng Yu Mo saw his sister and wasn't surprised at all, but was a little puzzled.

"Sister, why aren't you surprised Didn't you know all along"

Feng Ling reached out to touch his head, looking at the worry in his eyes, and softly said, "This was all expected. Empress Cen has her followers here, I'm sure she knew about my succession immediately. There's nothing surprising about it."

"Then, sister, are you going back"

Feng Yu Mo's eyes were filled with worry, "Sister, are you really willing to give up the treasure"

"Returning is definitely a possibility, Yumu is doing well here learning. Remember, if you want to protect yourself and the people you care about, you need to have enough ability. Otherwise, you'll be powerless despite your good intentions, understand"

Feng Yu Mo nodded, he kept his elder sister's words in his heart and would definitely do it.

"Come with me and see Li Wu Yan's mother, to thank her properly."

Wind Feather Ink followed her steps, and the two came to Lady Li Wu Yan's courtyard. The maidservants in the courtyard saw her arrival and hurriedly stepped forward to greet her, "This servant greets the Fourth Princess."

"Is Lady Li in the courtyard"

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. The Master has forbidden anyone from seeing the Madam. Please forgive me."

Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow, refusing to let anyone see his mother. Why was that

"Where is Li Wuyan"

"Master is out, he should be back soon."

Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yu Mo, "Then let's go back first and come again later."

Feng Yu Mo and Feng Ling Xi were strolling in the garden of Li Mansion. Feng Ling Xi instructed Feng Yu Mo to follow General Li well and to practice martial arts seriously. Feng Yu Mo agreed to both requests.

"Oh, there's one more thing I want to tell you. Little Mi went to the inn her sister gave her. She said she wanted to meet her sister by chance and asked me to tell your sister not to worry about her."

"As long as she can figure it out."

The inn was also a resting place for people from their world, Tian Xiaomi was there, perhaps she would return someday. She still had things to do there, and her situation was different from theirs.

"Yu Mo, did Xiao Mi say anything to you when she left"

She just told me to listen to you properly, that's all.

Feng Yu Mo's eyes were calm, as if he didn't have any lingering feelings for Tian Xiao Mi. Feng Ling Xi thought to herself, perhaps they hadn't developed romantic feelings for each other yet. If that was the case, it wouldn't be a bad thing.

If it's meant to be, there will be opportunities in the future. Besides, Yu Mo is still young.

"You about her..."

Before Feng Ling could finish speaking, Feng Yu Mo hurriedly said, "Sister, Yu Mo and Miss Xiao Mi have nothing between them. Please don't misunderstand."

"Look down on others"

Feng Lingxi smiled and asked, Feng Yumo shook his head, his dark eyes drooping slightly, his expression a little forlorn. He said in a low voice, "Yumo is still young, and besides, I have many things to do. I have no heart for romantic entanglements, let alone my status, which would hold someone back."

"What nonsense are you talking about What's your identity Aren't you my brother The younger brother of the Yao Clan Saint Master, isn't that identity enough"

"Sister, you know what I mean."

Feng Yu Mo looked up into Feng Ling Xi's eyes, seeing the reassurance within them. Feng Ling Xi patted his shoulder and said, "Yu Mo, a person cannot change their birth, but they can change their life. Do you understand what I mean"

"Yu Mo understood, this was what he had to do now."

He is still young, how he was born doesn't matter. He will change his life through his own efforts and become successful.

"Just understand."

The siblings chatted in the garden for more than an hour. Luoli and Li Wuyan came back and, learning that their siblings were here, came to find them.

"Fourth Princess."

Li Wuyan and Feng Ling greeted each other, their tone still as usual. Li Wuyan looked at Feng Yumo, but only glanced at him before seeing Feng Yumo greet him, his attitude very polite.

Li Wu Yan, thank you for treating Yu Mo's eyes this time. Thank you.

Feng Lingxi bowed in thanks and, looking at Li Wu'yan's calm expression, added, "How is your mother doing Today I went down the mountain to see your mother."

Li Wuyan's eyes lit up, then dimmed again.

"Her condition has deteriorated. The medicine you prescribed for her didn't have much effect after she took it. She said she has given up."

Feng Lingxi heard the bitterness in Li Wuyan's words. Thinking back to her conversation with Li Wuyan's mother last time, she knew Li Wuyan wasn't someone who sought death. How could she give up treatment

"I should probably talk to your mother, maybe that would help."

Then please trouble the Fourth Princess.

Li Wuyan, holding onto a glimmer of hope, still wished Feng Lingxi would go and check on her mother's condition. He knew about Feng Lingxi's situation during this time. Although she had stopped helping with his consultations, he understood she was busy and couldn't spare the time. He didn't say much because she had already helped him.

"It's still early, let's take a look at this later. I'll study it with you then."

Li Wuyan made a please gesture, leading Feng Lingxi past.

A group of people arrived at Li Mu's courtyard. After entering, Li Mu, as usual, sat in the courtyard, staring at the sky, somewhat lost in thought. Hearing the sound, Li Mu turned her head to look at the arriving group and then looked away again.

"Mrs. Li, it's good to see you again."

"So it's you."

The stern mother looked at Feng Lingxi and gave a faint greeting, "Madam, today is the Lantern Festival."

"Doctor Li, would it be possible for me to have a private conversation with your mother"

"Ayan, let's go out first."

Lu Fei left his mouth and Li Wu Yan responded by going out, waiting outside his mother's courtyard.

Feng Lingxi looked at Li Fu's pale face, her eyes full of doubt, "Madam, have you been feeling unwell recently"

"Just an old ailment, no need to trouble yourself, Madam."

"Does Madam have only one child, Dr. Li"

When it came to Li Wu Yan, Madam Li's eyes dimmed. "Madam," she said softly, "no matter what you want to know, I don't want to say anything. Ah Yan is such a good boy, he works so hard. All I hope for is that he lives well."

"What do you mean by that, Madam"

Feng Lingxi frowned, "Madam doesn't want to cure her own body. Could it have something to do with him"

“My existence has always been a burden to him. Madam, as a smart woman, you should understand what I mean. I know why you're here. It was Ah Yan who asked you to come. However, Madam, each person has their own destiny and desires. Please do not interfere with my choices.”

Feng Lingxi heard her words and felt a sudden pang of sadness.

She wanted to die. Looking at the desolation in her eyes, Feng Lingxi suddenly asked, "Madam, forgive my boldness, but I have a question. Have you ever thought about what would happen to Dr. Li if you were gone As a doctor, he couldn't cure his own mother. He might never get over this hurdle for the rest of his life."the doctor, and said to Dugu Yu, "Give your third wife some good fortune, don't just chop people's heads without moving.""Your Majesty, I'm only speaking up for you. What he said to you..."What does...
