Chapter 806: Imprisonment 66
then we can deal with them."Feng Yu Xi glanced at them, took a few steps back, and only then did the guards release her.“Xiaorou, you have to find a way in. Hurry and go look for Xier and tell her tha..."Your Highness, please don't worry. You haven't had your period this month, have you Perhaps it hasn't come yet, so I couldn't diagnose anything."
Little Li comforted her, seeing the sadness in the Queen's eyes, she knew that the Queen was looking forward to having a child with the King. After returning, the Queen stopped taking medicine, only because her body hadn't fully adjusted yet, making it difficult to conceive.
Feng Lingxi nodded, washed up, drank some fish soup, and then went to pay respects to Empress Shu. In the evening, Yuexin came, but she still hadn't conceived a child.
After Feng Ling Xi, her days were spent recuperating. Her health was poor and she couldn't conceive a child, which was a problem for both her and Dugu Cheng. She didn't want him to take concubines and also yearned for a child of their own.
After months of fighting, Dugu City finally captured the Dan Liao tribe. Yelü Hong fled, and Dugu Xiu's whereabouts are unknown. Dugu City once again proved his status as a war god.
Let's calculate the time since I left Beijing. It's been three months already, and it's now early June.
The battle report reached the capital. Dugu Yan ordered Dugu Cheng to return to court, and although Feng Lingxi learned about Dugu Cheng from the Yao clan during that time, the real news of his victory came with this report.
That's how Feng Lingxi came to understand the emotions of ancient women waiting for their husbands to return from war. It was a long and arduous wait.
"Your Highness, the King has sent a letter."
Xiaoli excitedly came in holding the letter and handed it to Feng Lingxi. Feng Lingxi happily took it, looked at the contents of the letter, and a smile appeared on her stunning face.
"Mother, do you know"
"Everyone knows, Your Highness said that Young Master Yumeng will also return to the capital this time."
Feng Lingxi hearing Feng Yumo, the smile on her face widened, "Go tell grandpa, let him be happy."
Since the relationship between Feng Cangkai and Huifeng has improved, Feng Lingxi has been visiting the General's Mansion. Although it was only Feng Cangkai who moved, this was already enough to satisfy Feng Lingxi.
Feng Cangkai was very pleased with his grandson, Feng Yumo. Over the past few months, under his reorganization, the General's Mansion had undergone a remarkable transformation. Compared to before, it was truly impressive. Feng Aotien had also been arranged by Feng Cangkai to quell bandits and restore order, effectively separating himself from the General's Mansion. Although Zhao shi held the position of secondary wife in the General's Mansion, she did not hold any real power. Under Feng Cangkai's watchful eye, she dared not act out of line.
Since the last incident, Feng Yu Xi had been too afraid to cause trouble for Feng Cang Kai. She stayed in the palace, never venturing out. Feng Ling Xi learned from Mo Huai Lan that because of Mo Huai Lan's pregnancy, Feng Yu Xi had also used her cunning to keep Du Gu Yan staying overnight at her Feng Yi Dian. Although she succeeded several times, she had yet to hear any news of a pregnancy. It seemed she was worried about the Dragon Heir.
The news of Du Gucheng's return to the capital with his troops spread throughout the Great Yuan Dynasty, causing widespread joy.
On this day, Feng Lingxi woke up. It was a June day, and when she got out of bed, the weather was still sunny. As soon as she stepped outside, it started to rain.
Feng Lingxi, accompanied by Xiao Li, stayed at Ti Xiang Lou. She planned to return when the rain lessened, but then a figure appeared, and Xiao Li called out to that person.
"Chu Xi."
Upon seeing someone she hadn't met in a long time, Chu Xi smiled and walked up to Xiao Li, greeting her, "It's the Fourth Princess Consort and Miss Xiao Li."
Feng Lingxi was truly surprised to see Chu Xi appear, and hastily asked, "Chu Xi, has your lord come to the capital"
Chu Xi, “The master arrived only recently and didn't say he wanted to see the Fourth Princess.”
Feng Lingxi awkwardly smiled, she didn't say she wanted to meet their landlord, just asked.
Xiao Li watched Chu Xi's appearance, feeling a little unhappy in her heart. If the princess knew that the樓主 was the King, she wouldn't know how the King would be punished. However, she had promised the King not to tell the princess, so she could only bear it.
"My princess didn't say she wanted to meet you guys, Lord Chu is overthinking."
Little Li retorted, glaring at Chu Xi. She looked at the smile on Chu Xi's lips and then at the rain still falling outside. Turning to Feng Lingxi, she said, "Princess, let's go upstairs for something to eat. We'll leave when the rain stops."
Feng Lingxi responded, looking at Chu Xi and saying, "Young Master Chu, would you like to come together I'll treat you." Her impression of Chu Xi was still quite good. Feng Lingxi had initially wanted to inquire about the owner of Tianxianglou from Chu Xi, but he declined her offer.
"Your Highness, I have something to attend to, and I can't accompany you."
He's not bored to death, and having a meal with the princess wouldn't be a problem. If the King knew about it, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
Feng Ling had just walked up to the second floor when she saw the shopkeeper approach, "Fourth Princess, the master of this house requests your presence."
Xiao Li watched Chu Xi just walk out of Tianxiang Building. Her gaze fell on the private room pointed at by the shopkeeper, her eyes filled with suspicion.
Why would the Lord have walked away with Ye Xi, meeting only with his Consort If she didn't know the Lord’s identity, she would truly think that the owner of this Tian Xiang Lou and the Lord were not one and the same.
Feng Lingxi, seeing Xiaoli's puzzled expression, asked, "Xiaoli, what's the problem"
Xiao Li came to her senses and hurriedly shook her head, "Your Highness, I was just asking."
As the princess went into the private room, Xiao Li looked at the prince standing by the window. She wanted to speak, but when she met his warning gaze, she instinctively closed her mouth.
"Fourth Royal Wife, it's nice to see you again."
Dugu Cheng wore a mask. Now he was the master of Tianxiang Building. His sharp eyes were still cold, and they swept across Xiaoli who stood beside Feng Lingxi. Xiaoli even became restrained in her gaze.
"Xiao Li, wait for me outside."
Feng Lingxi instructed, Xiao Li glanced at the king once, and after going out, the shopkeeper led her to a private room next door to wait.
"Host, it's been a while. I wonder what brings you to the capital this time"
Dugu City stared at her with his eyes. After months of separation, Xi'er was still as cold towards him as ever. However, that was fine too. Her complexion had improved considerably, and she had gained some weight. These past few days rushing back to the capital city hadn't disappointed him after all.
"Acting on someone's behalf, I remind the Fourth Princess that someone wants to harm you."
"Someone else wants to assassinate me"
Feng Lingxi's brow furrowed slightly, and seeing him nod, she couldn't help but smile.
"What do you mean, Fourth Princess"
Feng Lingxi said, "The master of Tianxiang Tower wouldn't usually come to Beijing personally for such trivial matters. This isn't like his style at all. Many people want to see the master, but they can't even catch a glimpse of him. Yet, he came all this way just to inform me. If word got out, I'm afraid I'd be targeted for assassination again."
Dugu Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, she could still smile, it seemed that these past few months had been too comfortable for her.
"The Fourth Princess should know that this floor owner is entrusted to protect your safety, so naturally, nothing will happen to you."
Feng Lingxi's eyes widened in surprise. Today, the owner of Tianxianglou spoke so much
Before this, there weren't a few words, how come this time it's like a different person.
"Please, the Fourth Princess."
獨孤城 gestured for her to have a meal, without speaking.
Actually, he rushed back just to see her, to see how she had been doing these past few months. Seeing that she was well, all his fatigue vanished.ords, the laughter of Xiao Li and Ye Xi from outside reached their ears. Feng Lingxi glared at Dugu Cheng, "Nothing happened."獨孤城 pulled her hand down, hugged her waist, and coaxed softly, "Xier, are...
