Chapter 734 Imprisonment 34

ht below the cave, it was almost twenty meters tall. Someone without experience would definitely be scared."Hold onto the rope and look around."Xiaoli was directing from above, her eyes never leaving...Feng Lingxi turned over and got up, putting on her coat. The landlord had already lit the candles. Feng Lingxi saw Xiaoli sleeping soundly and was impressed by his martial arts skills.

Xiaoli knew her own martial arts skills very well. To be able to leave Xiaoli completely helpless, this person's martial arts must be incredibly high.

"I wonder what urgent matter could have caused the poster to disturb me at this late hour. If word of this got out, it would surely ruin my reputation."

Feng Lingxi's attitude towards the poster was slightly cold. If she couldn't get a satisfactory explanation, she wouldn't be polite.

The Three Kings have arrived in the capital today and have already met with the Emperor. General Feng will arrive at the General's Mansion tomorrow, escorted by guards from the Fourth Prince.

The host explained this clearly and concisely.

But he really overthought it.

The Three Kings entering the capital was nothing more than a way to replace her position as the Fourth Princess. Since Du Gu Cheng wasn't in the capital, it was impossible to directly replace the Princess's position. Besides, General Feng returned to his general's mansion, and she had no connection with the general's mansion or him anymore.

“The poster told me this, don’t you think they’ve got the wrong person I’m not Dugu City. Even if they want to replace these four wives and marry someone else, they should find Dugu City. Secondly, the poster must also know how I am related to General Fu, what does this old general returning home have to do with me”

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, fixing her gaze on the person under the mask. Her eyes were sharp and cold.

It's getting late, let the host go back, I'm sleepy.

The landlord stared at her with wide eyes for a long time, then turned and broke the window to leave.

Feng Lingxi glanced at the window, then looked down, her brows furrowed even tighter. This was the third floor! Such powerful martial arts were truly astonishing.

The landlord left, Feng Lingxi went to check on Xiaoli's situation. Making sure she was alright, she covered her with a blanket and returned to bed. However, this commotion had robbed her of sleep.

When the Three Kings entered the capital, the princess of King Pingbei became Lan Fei. How could the princess of King Pingxi be content to be second best She would have to rival the current emperor and find a son-in-law who would satisfy King Pingxi. Perhaps only Dugu City could fulfill these requirements.

Feng Lingxi sneered, these ancient people's minds were all spent on how to marry their daughters off to men of interest.

What genuine emotions, in their eyes, simply don't exist.

However, if she didn't get any news about Dugu City here and just let the Three Kings send people to Siwangfu, wouldn't that make her seem too easy to bully

How can she be the Saintess of the Yao clan This time, Empress Cen summoned her mother into the palace without a word, talking about the matter of three months. Could it be that she's not thinking about taking advantage of the Yao clan's treasures

Feng Lingxi analyzed for a while, the coldness in her eyes intensified. She, Feng Lingxi, was not someone who feared the weak and yielded to the strong. Duguo Cheng didn't say taking a concubine, no one else dared to push people onto her.

Having made up her mind, Feng Lingxi got up, dressed herself, and walked to Xiao Li's side. She called out to wake Xiao Li. After a while, Xiao Li was woken up by Feng Lingxi. Looking at the princess, she felt dizzy and came back to her senses. She hurriedly grabbed her hand and asked, "Princess, are you alright What just..."

"The host just arrived, he knocked you out."

Xiaoli shuddered at the landlord's words.

"My Queen, why would the master of this house seek you out at three in the morning"

"The Three Kings have arrived in the capital and paid their respects to the Emperor. Tomorrow, General Feng Lao will also arrive at General's Mansion, escorted by people from Dugu City. If we don't receive news from Dugu City tomorrow, we'll return to the capital directly to see these so-called Three Kings for ourselves."

Xiao Li's drowsiness disappeared completely, and she immediately sat up straight.

"Your Highness, haven't you slept all night"

Feng Lingxi nodded. Where could she possibly sleep The host's arrival, although she said those words on her lips and pretended not to mind, when it came to her lifelong happiness, how could she truly remain unmoved.

Looking out at the sky, Feng Ling Xi patted Xiao Li's shoulder. "I just had a surge of wanting to immediately set off back to the capital, but I thought about it and hadn't gotten any news from Dugu Cheng, and I don't want to just leave like this."

She trudged here, exhausted from her journey. With no news of Dugu City, she couldn't bear to leave just like that.

Xiao Li understood the Queen's feelings and stayed by her side. Feng Ling Xi didn't fall asleep until dawn. At noon, Xiao Li woke Feng Ling Xi up. News from the clansmen came that after Du Gu Cheng left Yang Shan County that day, he headed southeast. There was no trace of where he went specifically.

Therefore, Feng Lingxi issued her first command as the Saint Master: any member of the Yao clan who received news of Dugu City must report it immediately.

After issuing the command, Feng Lingxi and Xiao Li set off back to the capital. As they exited the inn, they saw a carriage waiting for them outside. Looking at Chu Xi who was approaching, Feng Lingxi frowned slightly, her gaze fixed on the direction of the carriage.

"Fourth Royal Wife, my master knows that you are returning to the capital and has specially sent Chu Xi to escort you back."

"Thank you for your trouble."

Feng Ling walked towards the carriage and got in. Only then did she realize that there was no one else inside besides Chu Xi. She looked at him puzzled, "Where's your master"

The host has not arrived.

Feng Ling Xi wanted to say that she had seen the host last night, but Feng Ling Xi held back.

"He's really putting in his all, isn't he I wonder who could have gotten him to go to such lengths to help."

Chu Xi smiled, but did not answer.

"Your Highness, a carriage is not as fast as horseback. If you feel uncomfortable or need a rest, please don't hesitate to speak up."

Thank you.

Feng Lingxi lowered the curtain and sat in the carriage with Xiao Li. As the carriage departed, a figure emerged from the inn, wearing a mask and a black robe that reached their feet. They stood at the entrance of the inn, and over ten figures ran up behind them.

"樓主."

"Protect along the way, make no mistake."

After speaking, he left on his own.

The carriage was bumping terribly, not nearly as comfortable as riding a horse. Feng Lingxi was tossed about quite severely, and after two hours, she could take it no more.

"Stop."

The carriage came to a halt, Feng Lingxi stepped out and looked at the disaster victims seated on the ground before her. When they saw the carriage stop, all the people cast their desperate gazes towards it. Even Feng Lingxi hadn't expected such a scene.

A desolate scene, with refugees everywhere. There were estimated to be five or six hundred people, including the elderly, children, women, and patients. Some were even digging up soil to eat grass roots.

Such a scene Feng Lingxi had never encountered before. Chu Xi originally didn't want to stop, but when the Fourth Princess called out, he had to stop here.

"What's wrong with these people"

"Fourth Royal Wife, these are refugees. There seems to have been a flood in the nearby towns."

Feng Ling Xi was drawn to the cries by the sight of the woman and child. A woman was holding a child, perhaps three or four years old, weeping uncontrollably, some distance away from her.

"Does the imperial court not care about these disaster victims"

Feng Lingxi saw these displaced people wandering outside. There were no villages or towns nearby, and the surrounding grass showed signs of being dug up. Looking at their situation sitting here, it seemed like they didn't intend to leave.

When has the imperial court ever governed these peoplehis, but Consort Long insists on staying at the residence. I wonder if General Feng could tell us"If you think "Wind Ling Xi Du Gu City" is good, please copy and paste the following URL to share with...
