Chapter 1034: Metamorphosis 108

poisoning. However, when Dugu Xiu arrived, the smile on her face disappeared instantly. “Your Majesty, there’s no need for you to worry about my affairs. There are many things to attend to in the cour..."This king desires revenge."

Dugu Yu looked at Shu Taifei, "As long as Shu Taifei lets my fourth brother help me, I will go back to be an undercover agent for my fourth brother and never break my promise."

"Is it worth it for a woman"

Dugu Yu heard this and did not feel ashamed. He slowly closed his eyes, his mind filled with images of his former days with his beloved concubine, so warm and sweet. But now, he was alone.

"Back then, wasn't it your father who gave up all the beauties in this palace for Empress Dowager Shu, showering her with his affection alone"

The Dowager Empress fell silent for a moment, "It seems the men of the Dugu clan are all deeply devoted."

"If you insist on this, then go back," she sighed.

"Imperial Noble Consort Shu, did you promise this king's request"

The Empress Dowager Shu Tai stared at Du Gu Yu, her eyes suddenly becoming sharp. "This matter, I don't want anyone besides you and me to know."

"Thank you, Imperial Noble Consort, for your understanding. This King will certainly do as you say."

The Empress Dowager responded, looking at the joy on Duke Gu's face. "The departed are gone, live well."

"This king promised her that he would live well."

Dugu Yu left the next day, leaving a letter behind. Dugu Cheng was disappointed when he found out, but he didn't say anything. At least in his letter, he said that he wouldn't tell anyone about what happened here and told him to believe that he would always be his third brother.

Regardless of whether his words were true or false, Dugu City was already beyond saving. Fortunately, after several days, there was no news from the court condemning him.

After what happened to Du Gu Yu, Feng Ao Tian also visited Feng Ling Xi several times, wanting her to let him return to the capital. Ever since Feng Ling Yu was rescued, Feng Ao Tian has been restless and the black-clothed men have disappeared.

Feng Aotian naturally wouldn't be let go. Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng didn't wait for Feng Lingyu and the man in black to come save Feng Aotian, but instead received a letter from Huangfu Qingyun, informing them of the meeting between Feng Yuxi and Luo Li in the Hu Xia Dynasty. Feng Lingxi's heart turned cold.

Although I knew they were connected, knowing the truth still felt unpleasant.

"Your Highness, we just received word that there was an explosion near the Dan Liao tribe. Should we go take a look"

"Explosion"

Hearing this word, Feng Lingxi's first reaction was the explosives she had previously developed. Wasn't that investigated How could there still be any

"Wait for me, I'll be there soon."

Feng Lingxi hurriedly changed into a new set of clothes and took Xiao Li out of the mansion. As soon as they reached the door, she saw a familiar figure. Looking at the person, Feng Lingxi's mood was quite complex, and she didn't know what to say.

"Well, don't you want to see me either"

"After all, you still came."

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli, "You go busy first."

Xiaoli glanced at Luoli, gave her a greeting, and then went to investigate the case.

"Would you like me to come over sometime"

Luo Li's appearance to Feng Ling Xi was like June snow, terrifying and nothing more.

After Luo Li moved into the residence, seeing its simple furnishings, he said, “You didn't go to Yao Clan's luxurious palace. Instead, you chose this place. Living in this small courtyard every day, you seem quite comfortable.”

"Didn't they say, 'when a woman marries, she follows her husband, and when a woman marries a dog, she follows the dog' Where there is Dugu City, I am there. As for the clan leader, didn't you say that we shouldn't see each other again in this life How do you have time to come see me"

When she said this, Feng Lingxi's smile was her trademark one, but inwardly, she was very uneasy.

She knew that the purpose of her departure was by no means simple.

"Remember what I told you back then Goodbye, we..."

"Aren't we supposed to never see each other again" Feng Lingxi interrupted Luo Li, shrugging her shoulders. "I think it's nice that we meet again like this. We were friends after all, how can we just disappear from each other's lives Don't you think so"

"Do you really still consider me a friend"

"Of course not, you are the head of the Yao clan. The word "friend" isn't quite appropriate to describe us."

"You've become quite sharp-tongued." Luoli stared at Feng Lingxi's face, lost in thought for a while before saying, "Actually, you don't have to be so nervous. I didn't come here to take you away this time. It was just a coincidence, and I suddenly felt like seeing you."

With a sentimental look, Feng Lingxi stealthily glanced at Luo Li. If she didn't know him, she would have thought he was confessing to her, missing her.

"It seems you were just passing by, that gave me a fright! I thought you were taking me away."

"If I wanted to take you away, would you come with me"

Luo Li's tone suddenly became serious, Feng Ling Xi was unambiguous, "Of course not, you don't know, I live pretty well here. Yao clan up and down, I manage everything in order, life is simple and comfortable."

After a long silence, Luoli looked up at Feng Lingxi, her lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to speak but held back.

Feng Lingxi was terrified by his actions. She hoped Luo Li wouldn't speak up and ask to take her away. Their collision shouldn't happen this early.

"I'm here to take care of some business, I won't bother you for too long. Can I stay here for a while"

"What's up"

Wind Ling looked at Luoli, "What's wrong"

The elders' commands have nothing to do with you.

Feng Lingxi heard that it had nothing to do with her, she couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. But then she thought about what her mother said and what Huangfu Qingyun had told her, Feng Lingxi became even more confused about this Luoli, unable to see through her or figure her out.

"I'll have someone clean your room later."

Luo Li glanced around, "The Fourth Prince is not at the manor."

He went to the army camp.

Luo Li looked at the emptiness of the mansion, then turned to Feng Ling Xi, "Does the Fourth Prince really intend to garrison here and defend the border Does he truly not want the throne anymore"

"How did the chief come to be concerned about the Great Yuan Dynasty's empire"

Feng Lingxi smiled and said, "We're very happy here. Staying like this for a lifetime wouldn't be bad either."

"So if one day, you really had to make a choice, would he refuse to become the emperor of the great Yuan Dynasty"

We don't intend to think about hypothetical scenarios, and the chieftain needn't worry about them either. Just focus on your own affairs.They were all asking if they should seize power. Their purpose was certainly not to genuinely support Dugu Cheng as emperor.

But as for this departure, this time coming here, it seems there are many words that couldn't be said.

"You're right, there's really no need to dwell on something so far away."

Feng Lingxi nodded, having someone bring tea. Luo Li finished her tea and stood up, "May I go see Wan'er She's over a year old now, isn't she"

"Over a year old, my wet nurse brought me."

Luoli's face broke into a rare smile, "In that case, I can pay my respects and become your disciple."

"Wait a moment." Feng Ling Xi stopped Luo Li, "Waner, I have no intention of letting her succeed as the Yao Clan leader. If you want to take on an apprentice, wait until I give birth to my son and then you can take one."

The only thing we can do now is to stall for time. Feng Lingxi worries that after taking him as a disciple, this Luo Li will take Wan'er away.

>Dynasty's periphery. Moreover, with the small nations near the border becoming restless now, having your brother there will surely quell the chaos and bring peace, it is a wise decision.""Although wha...
