i raised an eyebrow, looking at Feng Ling Xi's expression. "What else did he say"Feng Lingxi looked at the concern in her mother's eyes. Thinking of taking a concubine, she realized that she had impli...Waner took Siyu and Siqi onto the carriage. Looking at Fenglingxi's reluctant gaze, Waner hurriedly waved her hand, "Mother, don't worry, I will take care of my younger siblings. If you are going to cry, please go back first."
"I won't cry."
Although Wan'er and Feng Lingxi had been apart for a long time, such separations had become commonplace. However, Si Yu and Si Qi were different. Their eyes sparkled with excitement, mimicking Wan'er as they waved at Feng Lingxi, eager to leave immediately.
Wind Ling Xi truly felt the children's excitement at leaving this place, even their own mother was abandoned. However, that's for the best, hopefully they will be better protected in Tianxiang Lou.
In order to allow them to leave the city smoothly, Dugu City and Feng Lingxi also went shopping together, just to divert everyone's attention and let them leave the city smoothly. And when they appeared hand in hand on the main street of the capital, they indeed achieved their desired effect.
"Ayan, Dugu City has already awakened."
On the second floor of the teahouse, Luoli and Li Wuyan stood watching Dugucheng and Feng Lingxi on the street below. The two were strolling through the streets, laughing and talking. The man was handsome, the woman stunningly beautiful, and with Dugucheng's silver hair, they were simply impossible to miss.
The common people watched, not caring who was in the carriage at all. It just drove right out of the city under their very noses.
"Xier, are you hungry I'll take you upstairs to have some pastries."
Dugu Cheng raised his eyes, landing on the positions of Luo Li and Li Wu Yan, and smiled slightly at them. Li Wu Yan hurriedly took a step back, "How did Dugu Cheng know we were here"
“Since they left the city to protect these three children, they couldn't possibly be unaware of our whereabouts.”
Luo Li's departure wasn't surprising at all, "It seems I have no trust in their eyes."
"We underestimated this little girl, Wǎn'er."
Li Wuyan watched Luoli walk to her position and sit down. He immediately stepped forward to comfort her, "Since things are already exposed, even if they misunderstand you, I'm on your side."
Luo Li looked at Li Wu Yan's worried eyes, "It's alright, this is all part of our plan. Right now, the Grand Elder still doesn't know that Wan Er already knows the truth. They have captured Yao Wan Ying, and now their entire focus is on Yao Wan Ying. They won't make any big moves for a while."
“Then should we team up with Feng Ling Xi directly…”
Before Li Wu-yan could finish speaking, Luo Li stopped him. “We don’t need it for now. Feng Ling-xi's wings are not yet full grown. Right now, we have to find a way to let Dugu City control this Great Yuan Dynasty, or else we will lose.”
"Today I want to find a way to go to the palace."
Luo Li nodded, "I'll go with you. This empress is becoming more and more robust. She wants to dominate the entire Yuan Dynasty and even wants to emulate Empress Cen. However, since this dynasty isn't hers, she naturally can't get her wish."
"I don't want this vast Yuan Dynasty either." Li Wuyan looked at Luo Li, "Before, I tried so hard to get back what belonged to me. Now I realize that living freely is stronger than any empire."
Luo Li chuckled softly, "Your father would probably be so angry he'd come back to life if he knew you thought this way."
"No, he'll be pleased."
Li Wuyan took a deep breath, "These past years, you've seen it too. For the sake of the throne, Father’s sons have met with death and misfortune. That I can be so aware is something both Father and Mother would rejoice in."
"My fifth younger brother is right."
Dugu Cheng led Feng Lingxi over and sat down opposite them, looking at Luoli, "Brother Luoli, this meal is on me."
Luo Li laughed, “That's good, I was worried that no one would buy it. Since the Crown Prince is so generous, then I won’t be polite.”
"Ah Yan, long time no see."
Feng Lingxi greeted Li Wuyan and, seeing the awkwardness on his face, tried to lighten the mood.
Li Wuyan nodded, "I apologize for the inconvenience."
"Your realization is something your father and mother would be proud of. But there are some things that, if they truly belong to you, will come into your hands even if you don't want them. And things that aren't yours, no matter how hard you fight, will never be."
獨孤城的這句話讓一旁的落離笑了。
"Is the Crown Prince talking about me"
"No, Your Majesty was simply stating facts."
Dugu Cheng held Feng Lingxi's hand, the tenderness in his eyes made Luo Li frown beside him, "It seems that King Chen is back together with Xi'er. Let's watch them show their affection."
"My king and Xi'er are indeed getting back together. This is all thanks to some recent events that allowed us to clearly know our hearts."
Feng Lingxi nodded, "The chieftain also hopes that I and Dugu City can reunite, right Back then, you teamed up with him to drive me away, and I didn't hold a grudge. This time, by getting back together, you've also helped me explain things. Thank you."
Luo Li heard this and coughed violently. Li Wu Yan hurriedly patted his back to help him regain his breath.
"Are you alright Would you like me to take a look"
Feng Ling xi hurriedly stretched out her hand, Luo Li dodged and avoided it.
"No need, Ah Yan is enough to help me. Feng Ling Xi, you just need to understand." Luo Li said so, but his heart was filled with unease, and he started to worry that Feng Ling Xi might lose her mind because she got back together with Dugu Cheng, making all his efforts these past few days pointless.
"Is your body really okay"
Feng Lingxi watched Luo Li clutching her chest, seemingly in pain. He must know that Wan'er had left the city. Would he intervene along the way
"It's okay."
Wind Lingxi nodded, "The poison on your daughter has been cured."
When Luoli heard Feng Lingxi's words, her cough worsened, her handsome face flushed red. Li Wuyan hurriedly helped her regulate her breath and said to Feng Lingxi, "Stop talking, if you say anything more, he'll cough up blood."
"Luo Li, I hope you can look at your daughter with your own eyes. She is innocent, and so is my Wan'er." Feng Ling Xi finished speaking, stood up and said to Dugu Cheng, "Let's go."
Behind her, Luo Li's cough grew worse. Only hearing Li Wu Yan anxiously call out "Luo Li," Feng Ling Xi heard a sound of spitting blood and hurriedly turned back, seeing Li Wu Yan holding Luo Li, anxiously feeding him medicine.
"Let me help you."
Feng Lingxi walked over and squatted down, wanting to help. Li Wuyan forcefully shook off Feng Lingxi's hand and shouted angrily, "Feng Lingxi, who told you to meddle Do you know how weak his body is If you want to kill him, just give him a quick death. Please, stop torturing him."
"I... I didn't want to kill him, I just wanted to help him."
Feng Lingxi was so startled by Li Wu'yan's roar that she didn't know what to do. She truly wanted to cure Luo Li, she remembered everything Wan'er said, and she also remembered what Li Wu'yan said last time. She wanted to join forces with Luo Li. with Your Majesty. In case Your Majesty disagrees, I fear Your Majesty's displeasure...""Isn't it just about transporting a few stones Would this king be so petty" Dugu City couldn't stand it anymore...
