Chapter 674: Yao's Uprising 44

Hearing the Empress, Feng Lingxi felt a little nervous. Her mother had told her that the Empress was the biological mother of the prince and wasn't kind to Consort Shu. She advised her to be careful....The fifteenth tale was interrupted before it could be finished by Ye Xi. Feng Lingxi glanced at Ye Xi, "Where is he"

"In the foyer."

Feng Lingxi glanced at Shiwu and walked towards the front hall. Just as Shiwu was about to follow, Ye Xi stopped her.

"Fifteen, what's the situation with Xiao Li"

Fifteen glanced at Ye Xi, "I can't tell you." With that, she caught up to Feng Lingxi and hurried away.

Ye Xi touched her nose and heard that Xiao Li had gone to the kitchen, so she walked towards the kitchen.

"Xiao Li."

Ye Xi walked in and saw Xiao Li taking pastries, so she rushed forward to help.

"Need something"

Ye Xi let out a sly giggle. The King had sent him to inquire about the Princess's well-being. Hearing about Xiao Li's injury was a gain, but this return visit revealed that Xiao Li had visibly lost weight. He originally wanted to know why, and now, with this opportunity, he couldn't miss it.

"Just now your wife asked about your injuries, fifteen. Are you hurt"

Xiao Li's body trembled, she turned to look at Ye Xi, her eyes full of anxiety, "Did Shi Wu say anything"

"Before I could even speak, he interrupted me. The prince has something to discuss with his wife, so he's going to the front hall first."

Xiao Li's eyes darkened slightly, she quickly placed the pastries onto a plate. Ye Xi hurried to help, noticing Xiao Li's silence, she tentatively asked, "Xiao Li, when did you get hurt What happened in the Yao clan How bad are your injuries Are you alright"

"I'm fine."

Xiaoli's expression was cold. She had to stop Shiwu quickly. She couldn't tell the princess, or the princess would worry about her again.

"It's nothing, Your Highness. Why are you so nervous Tell me, did something happen to the Yao Clan..."

Xiao Li glared at him, "I still have to bring food to the princess, no time to waste talking with you."

Holding the pastry in her hand, Xiaoli walked outside. Yexi hurriedly followed, "On the way, tell me, I'll help you carry..."

"No need, don't follow me."

Xiao Li's voice was cold, and Ye Xi reached out to snatch the plate from her hand. Xiao Li quickly rushed over to grab it back, and the two clashed. Ye Xi's figure flashed, and she started fighting with Xiao Li. Xiao Li just used her internal energy when blood surged up in her chest, her face turned pale, and she spat out a mouthful of blood. Ye Xi was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to support her.

"Xiao Li, what's wrong with you"

Grasping her wrist, Ye Xi probed her internal injuries, his face filled with shock. "How could your internal injuries be this severe"

Xiaoli shook off his hand, "Don't worry about it."

"This is about the Princess, isn't it If you don't tell me, I'll tell the Prince."

"No."

Xiao Li coldly sneered, “You can’t tell the King.”

"Then tell me, what happened Why are your internal injuries so severe"

Yexi's questioning made Xiaoli very disgusted, "Can I leave since I was hurt by Yaochu"

Holding the pastries, Xiao Li hurried to the front hall. Yexi grabbed her hand and snatched the pastries from her, "Your internal injuries are severe, you need to rest properly, let me help you."

"Can you"

Yexi nodded, Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, "How can I help"

Of course there's a way, I've been following the lord these many years, what kind of injury haven't I suffered I can help you.

“Okay, I’ll find you later.”

Xiao Li took the pastry from his hand and left. Ye Xi watched her leave, hurriedly following after her. It seemed like what the King had said was true, the Princess and Xiao Li really did have an incident in the Yao clan. Xiao Li's injuries were so severe, and the Princess, it was likely she wasn't doing well either.

Feng Lingxi arrived at the front hall and saw Huangfu Qingyun and Dugu Cheng discussing matters. Seeing her, they quickly had someone leave. Feng Lingxi looked puzzled at General Li as he left, then walked to Dugu Cheng's side, "What happened"

"Xier came just in time, General Li just reported that your mother sent you some clothes, afraid you'd be cold here. Try them on later."

"Mother, what makes you think of giving me clothes"

Feng Lingxi felt a little strange. From the capital to here, she didn't come without clothes. Sending someone to deliver clothes was a bit exaggerated.

"The Empress Dowager's meaning."

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, his eyes full of helplessness.

Since it wasn't appropriate to directly send you clothes, I followed Mother's wishes and sent them to you along with a letter.

Dugu City handed her the letter, "The Empress Dowager orders you to open it with your own hands."

Feng Lingxi looked at the letter, written "From Feng Lingxi". The handwriting was indeed that of the Empress Dowager, but why wasn't it an imperial decree

Although doubtful, Feng Lingxi didn't think too much about it. She opened the letter and looked at the contents, her face growing increasingly worse. Dugu Cheng saw Xi'er's expression change and hurriedly asked, "Xi'er, what happened"

After Feng Lingxi finished reading the letter, she gave it to Dugu City. “Feng Yuxi wants to kill me, so be more careful,” she said. “She also said that the people behind Feng Yuxi have disappeared in the capital, so be more careful.”

"Who is the person behind the rain and wind"

Huangfu Qingyun looked at the couple, her eyes full of doubt.

But what about Dugu Yu

“It shouldn’t be Dugu Yu. Dugu Yan left Dugu Yu in the capital. The person behind this stormy eve isn't from the capital.”

Dugu Cheng said in a low voice, looking at Xi'er's cold face, and soothingly said, "Don't think about it too much, the Empress Dowager didn't say who that person was, we just need to be more careful."

"This person's identity is quite strange." Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City and suddenly smiled.

After we left the capital city, he followed us out as well. It seems like he truly wants to kill me.

Dugu Cheng raised a brow slightly, "This King has investigated. Dugu Xiu didn't come. It was Feng Yixuan, he left the capital, but disappeared soon after."

"Feng Yixuan was a person who acted alone. When Feng Yixuan left the capital, wouldn't you suspect who was behind it Feng Yixuan is Feng Linglong's younger brother. Feng Yu Xi begged me to save Feng Yixuan for Feng Linglong. Doesn't this make it clear Feng Yu Xi used Feng Yixuan's hatred for me to try and kill me. Feng Linglong is still too young, she actually believes Feng Yu Xi and truly thinks that if Feng Yixuan was better, he would be obedient."

Feng Lingxi shook her head, her eyes full of coldness.

"He shouldn't have been saved. Life is not good, and he insists on seeking death."

Feng Lingxi clenched her fists, the killing intent in her eyes made Dugu City beside her worried. Xi'er was in a bad mood, Feng Yixuan had really bumped into her hand.

"If he doesn't want to live, then kill him."

Luo Li walked in and looked at Feng Ling Xi, “The news I just received, the younger brother you saved, did indeed meet on the way, as you said, he was following us when we left the capital.”

"Lu ge."

Dugu Cheng glanced at Luo Li, his eyes complex.

Loli said this, Xi'er was probably even more eager to kill Feng Yixuan.

This Feng Yi Xuan is really her half-brother, to actually kill him... If this news gets back to the capital, everyone will say she has a venomous heart, killing even her own flesh and blood.

"This matter shall be handled after this king has thoroughly investigated it and made a decision."

Dugu City held Feng Ling Xi's hand, "This King will send someone to investigate Feng Yi Xuan's whereabouts. If it is really him, this King will help you get rid of him." At least, Feng Yi Xuan couldn't die at Xi Er's hands. to go with you, I'll do everything I can. Your Highness, please rest assured.""Your Majesty believes in you."Looking into his doting eyes, it seemed like he believed everything she said. His tone and...
