Chapter 716: Yao's Uprising 86
ve some money."They are now short not only of grain, but also of money. They can save wherever possible, and besides, the refining methods are not difficult. If all else fails, they can find a doctor...Just as Feng Lingxi had expected, Yao Yi heard Feng Lingxi's words and agreed. He also understood her purpose in asking him to do this. With a slight hint from Feng Lingxi, Yao Yi went down the mountain.
The former elders of the Yao clan were all waiting for Feng Lingxi's arrangements. Although they had been dissatisfied with her before, she was now someone they couldn't afford to provoke. Most importantly, they all hoped to be reused, naturally wanting to make amends and prove their worth.
Feng Lingxi's days in the Yao tribe were very pleasant. In her spare time, she would read medical books, refine pills, explore the mountains of the Yao tribe, and occasionally visit the sick members of the tribe. The tribe was even more appreciative of her care and concern for them.
In just a few days, Feng Lingxi's image among the Yao people improved significantly. Not only that, but Feng Lingxi also communicated with the clan members who studied medicine, giving them guidance on medication and formula modifications, and telling them about the refining of pills to make their use more convenient.
The clansmen, because of this, completely changed their opinion of Feng Lingxi's approachable manner and realized that she was actually a kind person at heart. They held her in high regard.
"Your Highness, there's news."
Xiao Li walked in, holding a letter and handing it to the Queen. Feng Lingxi opened the letter and looked at the contents. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her expression solemn.
"Your Highness, what happened"
Feng Lingxi passed the letter to Xiaoli. Looking at the contents, Xiaoli's face also changed.
"Your Highness, do you really think Feng Yixuan wants to kill you"
Yaoying's letter said that the day before yesterday, he went to Dan Liao tribe and got in touch with Yeluhong. Although Yeluhong was suspicious of his arrival, under his explanation, Yeluhong was half-believing and half-doubting, letting him stay in Dan Liao tribe. Yesterday, he accidentally overheard Feng Yixuan and Dugu Xiu talking about trying to assassinate Feng Lingxi on their way back to the capital, so he immediately sent someone to inform him.
Feng Lingxi still had some doubts about this letter from Yao Yi to her.
Feng Yixuan has always wanted to kill her, it's not a new thing. This time, though Luo Li was there to protect her, he still failed to assassinate her. But this time, he infiltrated Linxi County without attacking her, which means he doesn't have any immediate intention of killing her.
And she didn't say when she would return to Beijing. It was too early to talk about this with her now.
"My Queen, what are you thinking about"
Xiao Li whispered, watching the queen's thoughtful expression, and said to herself, "I think we should be careful. Feng Yi Xuan is really too bad. If I had known earlier, I should have poisoned him."
“He wants to kill me, it's not that easy.”
Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli and suddenly smiled.
Tell Yao Yi that I received his message and to keep an eye on things.
"This slave will go now."
Feng Lingxi spread out the paper on the table and wrote a letter to Dugu Cheng. These days, he had set off to quell the chaos and it would take about half a month to go back and forth. The letter Feng Lingxi wrote wouldn't be sent out, but she wrote it because there were some things she wanted to say to Dugu Cheng.
Little Li came back and saw the Princess again writing a letter. She peeked with sly eyes and said playfully, "Princess, you write to the King every day, but don't send them. When the King comes back, won't you have to write fifteen or so letters"
Feng Lingxi, without a care, meticulously packed the letter, not even considering that there was anything amiss with her actions.
"Counting the days, I'll be back in thirteen days."
Feng Ling Xi's lips curled into a smile, "When the time comes, we'll return to Beijing and deal with them."
"The Empress always says that, but what if the General pressures her again, using his status to force her to compromise The Empress might say she doesn't want to, but in the end, she'll just let the Dowager Empress off the hook again."
When Feng Yu Xi was mentioned, Feng Ling's smile disappeared from her face.
"What's the rush This wind and rain have been calm lately. She’s plotting such a big scheme, all she wants is to reach the highest point. Let her climb up there, and then I'll drag her to hell. Only then will she understand the feeling of being worse off than dead."
Xiao Li felt the anger emanating from the Princess, and hurriedly said, "This servant was just talking. Your Highness don't think too much about it, isn't there still the King He will handle it."
Feng Lingxi was tidying up as she asked, "Have there been any news from the capital"
The Shadow Eight Transmission said that Empress Cen refused to grant the title of Generalissimo of the Nation to someone. The Empress and she had a big argument, and also, there have been many more women in the Emperor's harem recently. The beloved concubine Long had a miscarriage a few days ago, apparently because of Lanfei who just entered the palace.
"Lan Fei"
Feng Lingxi raised her eyebrows, "Du Gu Yan is indeed fortunate. He doesn't know how many women he has had, and now the harem is not lacking in women at all."
"They didn't say specifically, we'll have to wait and see what's going on when we get back."
Feng Lingxi nodded slightly. This year, Feng Yu Xi took advantage of their absence to diligently support General's Mansion. She just didn't understand why, even after all this time, Dugu Yan and Empress Cen hadn't been able to get rid of Feng Yu Xi. Before, Empress Cen had said that this position wouldn't last long. Now it seems that something must have happened on Empress Cen's side as well.
"Xiaoli, I have a letter for you. Please deliver it to the palace and give it to my mother concubine. Ask her to hand it over to Empress Cen."
Xiaoli immediately became nervous, "Your Highness, if you send a letter into the palace, it definitely won't reach the Empress Dowager's hands. This capital city is full of people loyal to the Empress. Don't forget, there are also the Third Prince and Sixth Prince's people watching."
"It doesn't matter, this letter wasn't really meant for Empress Cen anyway."
Feng Lingxi held a pen and paper, thinking for a long time before writing a lengthy message in the letter. Xiaoli watched from the side, unable to comprehend what the princess was doing by writing such a heartfelt letter of longing for the Empress Dowager after half an hour.
Feng Lingxi finished writing and specially read it aloud to Xiaoli. Seeing Xiaoli's bewildered expression, Feng Lingxi's smile widened. "What do you think Was it very moving"
"Your Highness, I don't understand. Is this your true intention"
Feng Lingxi winked at Xiaoli, that playful smile made Xiaoli unconsciously lower her head. The princess actually flirted with her.
"Find a reliable person and deliver it to the Empress Dowager, have her take extra care."
Xiao Li responded and took the letter, Feng Ling Xi sat at the desk and picked up a book at random, leisurely flipping through it.
Outside, the wind and clouds were surging, but inside the Yao clan, Feng Lingxi was leisurely and carefree.
"Well, have you heard anything from Fengling Xi"
Feng Yixuan had already asked more than ten times, learning that after the Lantern Festival, Feng Lingxi returned to Yaozu. He was furious, and this Yao Yi even said he could coax Feng Lingxi down the mountain, but it's been five days now, and not even a shadow of Feng Lingxi has been seen.
Ye Lu Hong glanced at Yao Yi, "Elder Two, didn't you say Feng Ling Xi would come down the mountain What's going on"
Yao Yi's expression stiffened, and he hurriedly apologized, "I just learned about it. My subordinate said that the Holy Master was unwell, so we changed the plan to descend the mountain."
"She's unwell As a doctor, how could she be unwell I think it's you who is useless." and he still hasn't come back. I wonder if something happened to himFeng Lingxi's heart was very uneasy. Today, she had wasted time at the General's Mansion."The city lord has gone into the palace. T...
