s smile froze, while Dugu Cheng left with a hearty laugh.The next day, Dugu City left early, leaving only a note for Feng Lingxi. It just had four words: Wait for me to come back.獨孤城冇有和風淩兮道彆，一方麵是他怕他會舍..."Do you say such things without fear of Dugu City's retribution"

Feng Lingxi didn't feel a shred of jealousy because of these women. Anyway, it wasn't what Dugu City wanted. Wasn't that just inevitable

This person, living, has to understand some things, otherwise it's tiring.

Little Li pouted, “I’m telling the truth, Your Highness. If you truly care for your wife, then you should deal with these women properly, and then I wouldn't gossip about you.”

Feng Lingxi saw Xiao Li's angry look, reached out and poked her wound lightly, teasingly, "What, did you forget the pain after the scar healed If Ye Xi heard this, he would tell Dugu City, you'd have a hard time."

He dares.

Xiao Li's voice turned cold, her fists clenched, and her eyes narrowed dangerously.

"If he dares to tell the king, I'll chop off one of his arms."

Ye Xi shivered at the doorway. When had she ever been so bold Besides, what Xiao Li said was true. If the King truly loved his wife, he should have dealt with those women properly.

Alright, I'll have to go back and tell the King so he knows what's going on.

"You're not hurting anymore now, are you"

Wind Ling's face was smiling, her tone doting. Only then did Xiao Li realize that the Princess was chatting with her, diverting her attention and easing her pain. She was touched beyond words.

"Your Highness, if you were a man, I would serve you for life."

Xiaoli looked at Feng Lingxi with pleading eyes, her eyes brimming with tears.

Feng Lingxi was amused by Xiaoli's words. If she were a man, she would certainly cause quite a stir, wouldn't she

"If I were a man, I'm afraid Ye Xi would challenge me to a duel."

"If he dares, if he so much as touches the Princess with a finger, I will take his arm off! I will protect the Princess."

Wind Lingxi smiled and shook her head. It seemed that Ye Xi would have to work harder in the future, otherwise, with Xiao Li's personality, he wouldn't know when he could marry her back home.

"Where is Xi, she hasn't come back yet after fetching water this night"

Wouldn't he be eavesdropping at the door

Xiao Li looked at the door suspiciously. Ye Xi, hearing this, almost dropped the basin in her hands. She hurriedly knocked on the door, walked in with water, and pretended she hadn't heard anything.

"Your Highness, how is Xiao Li's injury"

I've taken medicine and still need to rest in bed for a while.

Feng Lingxi's words had fallen, and Xiao Li hurriedly explained, "Your Highness, I'm not that weak. It'll be fine after a few more doses of the medicine."

"Look for yourself."

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi who remained silent, "Take good care of her, this girl is quite strong. If the medicine isn't applied properly, it can easily cause inflammation and worsen her condition. Tomorrow, let Fourteen and Fifteen come and apply the medicine for her; she has limited ability on her own."

"Your Highness, I managed to reach…" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Xiao Li hurriedly shouted, Feng Ling Xi hooked her lips into a smile, her eyes glancing at Ye Xi, "Or perhaps, you want Ye Xi to help you as well..."

"Your Highness, please spare me."

Yexi's expression was awkward, he still wanted to live for two more years, Xiao Li's fist, really wasn't something you could eat.

Xiaoli glared at Yexi, "I can do it myself."

"Yes." Ye Xi was simply a loyal dog, looking at Xiao Li's puffed-up expression, he found it adorable. Anyway, just following her would make him happy, he didn't want to learn from the prince, lest he have to keep scheming his way onto the bed after they got married.

I'm going to sleep, I have something to do tomorrow.

Feng Lingxi gave Ye Xi the ointment in her hand and left.

This night, Dugu City did not return. Feng Ling Xi packed up early and went out with Shangguan Huan.

"Your Highness, I have investigated this Qing He. She is indeed the wife of Zhang You, and her situation is as you described. Perhaps she really is an accident."

Feng Ling Xi frowned, if it really was an accident, how could she be missing

"I need to find her body now. I have to know for sure if she's really dead or if someone stole her body."

Shangguan Huan nodded. The two of them inquired about Qing He from some people they had met. After the investigation, it turned out that Qing He had no problems and had not contacted anyone else. It seemed that her purpose was to infiltrate the palace and marry Dugu Cheng to live a life of wealth and prosperity.

"After walking all morning, we still haven't found any clues. It's really strange."

"Your Highness, the body of Qing He has been stolen. Have you inquired about the guards who were on duty at the time"

Feng Lingxi nodded, "I've asked everyone, they don't know when the body disappeared, and no one went in."

"Could it be that they stole it themselves"

Feng Lingxi frowned, "How should I put this This Qing He incident wasn't a big deal to begin with. No one took it seriously. After the incident, no one would have thought that the body was stolen. Now, investigating it is even more clueless."

"This matter is afraid that there is no way to investigate it."

Feng Lingxi and Shangguan Huan arrived at the teahouse, ordered some refreshments to rest for a bit. This teahouse was also the easiest place to gather information, with many people coming and going, many wanting to hear the latest gossip. So they often came to such places to inquire about it.

Feng Lingxi was no exception. Today, she went out in men's clothing after a little adjustment to her appearance. This allowed her to blend in and make her investigation more convenient.

Have you heard

Feng Lingxi was holding her tea, just about to take a sip, when someone at the next table spoke up.

"This Shu Taifei found thirty women for the Fourth Prince, this Fourth Prince is truly blessed."

"No, it's the Fourth Princess who is wronged. I heard she was driven out of the government office and moved to the Yao Clan's main residence."

Feng Lingxi, hearing this gossip, took a sip of water. Listening to gossip about herself felt strange somehow.

"I heard that the Fourth Princess executed two newly arrived concubines. This Fourth Princess is so fierce and jealous, how could the Imperial Noble Consort not be angry."

"Isn't that right I also heard that the Fourth Prince and Princess are now separated. Maybe, when the Fourth Prince returns to the County Office, he will be surrounded by beauties, enjoying himself so much that he forgets everything. Think about it, who would want to face a she-tiger"

"That's right, with so many beauties around, this is truly the life of a prince."

After that, there was a burst of lecherous laughter. Shangguan Huan, hearing this, angrily grasped his sword. Feng Lingxi held onto his hand, shaking her head at him, signaling him not to be impulsive.

Since this is a place for open discussion, opinions on good and bad will naturally arise.

This isn't the first time she's been spoken ill of, so what's the big deal.

Shangguan Huan looked at Feng Lingxi's calm and composed expression, he really wanted to teach those two people a lesson. They were both blinded by female beauty.

However, speaking of which, where did this Shutai find so many women for the Fourth Prince I heard that even the girls in the county town are unwilling to marry the Fourth Prince. No one wants to compete with the Fourth Princess for favor.

"You're right, I haven't heard of any girls from the county willing to marry either. And you know, these girls are all exceptionally beautiful, stunning beauties. Isn't that strange"

Feng Ling gave Shangguan Huan a wink, the moment of truth was here.

"Speak softly, I heard that now the Empress Dowager is most displeased when people speak ill of her. She's changed like a different person."i back to the Yao Clan. This sudden return to the Yao Clan shocked the elders within the clan. They knew Wind Lingxi was in Linxi County, but they didn't know she would come back suddenly.Looking at t...
