Chapter 1098 Ghost Saint Country 59

outh me in front of him That shameless woman.Feng Lingyu angrily tugged at her sleeves, glaring at Feng Lingxi with eyes that were about to burst into flames."Miss Four, you must be careful."Dugu Yan'..."The body of Qinghe is missing, and there's still no clue as to what happened"

Feng Lingxi shook her head, she didn't even have time to check, she ordered that everything should be investigated, but there was no news.

"Mother is now a hindrance."

Dugu Cheng apologized, saying he knew what his mother had done these past few days. Knowing that Xi'er moved here, it was obvious she was angry and chose to hide away by moving here.

Feng Lingxi mentioned Shu Taifei, and her head ached terribly.

"If there was a way to cure Mother and let her remember the past, things might be better. Otherwise, with her staying like this, it's truly a headache."

Mainly, she couldn't do anything to Empress Shu. Even if she went against her, it would only ruin her own reputation. It was like the incident with the concubines this time. If she hadn't dragged her in and attacked Xiao Li, she wouldn't have been so angry as to execute those two concubines.

However, speaking of these two concubines, Feng Lingxi couldn't help but be curious.

Where on earth did these thirty girls from Linxi County come from, willing to be concubines or side consorts to Dugu City The people of Linxi County wouldn't agree to sending their daughters into his household. Feng Lingxi, after calming down, suddenly realized the problem in the middle of it all.

"Dugu City, when did you make the girls of Linxi County want to marry you again"

Dugu Cheng almost spit out the water he was about to swallow. Looking at Feng Lingxi's serious eyes, he knew she wasn't joking. He swallowed nervously, "Xier, what do you mean by that"

He doesn't seem to have attracted any attention, or spoken to any of the ladies, either

"Mother, where did you find thirty girls to marry me"

Feng Lingxi's words left Dugu Cheng stunned. "I'm also puzzled, I don't know what they want."

He had nothing. Everyone in Línxī County knew that he was penniless and friendless.

Feng Lingxi narrowed her eyes, "Looks like it's time to investigate where these thirty girls came from. Who knows what other treasures we might uncover."

She was in the county town that day. The locals had a good opinion of her. Before they came back, no one could find a suitable woman to marry Dugu City. Now that they're back, thirty women have appeared out of nowhere. Were all these women gathered here waiting to marry Dugu City

"Leave this to me, Xi'er. You have enough on your plate already, just take care of yourself."

Dugu City summoned Ye Su and instructed him to handle this matter.

The food arrived, and Dugu City began to eat. Feng Lingxi accompanied him, carefully pondering the young woman they had chosen this time, becoming even more curious.

To be frank, it's not easy to find thirty women willing to marry Dugu City.

"You're all here."

Shangguan Huan and Qiu'er walked in together, saw Feng Lingxi and Dugu City were both there, bowed to them, and sat down.

How did you find your way here

"We returned to the county office and, knowing you had moved here, came to visit. After stating our names, the guards at the gate let us in."

Feng Lingxi heard Shangguan Huan's words, and she did tell them that if it was just the two of them, they could pass. However, she always felt that this was a bit arbitrary.

"Have you eaten yet Want to eat together"

"Dugu City asked, Shangguan Huan shook his head, “We have gained something this time.”

Feng Lingxi, upon hearing the harvest news, subconsciously looked at Qiuer. Seeing her solemn expression, she recalled what Qiuer had said before going out. Could it be related to Xinshui

"Come on, tell me."

"My heart's desire has come, she reached Linxi County, but I don't know her exact location now."

When it came to the subject of her beloved, Qiu'er's eyes were filled with hatred, but she was suppressing it. Shangguan Huan held Qiu'er's hand, comforting her.

"You mean your sweetheart came with you"

"She's probably after me, but it's also possible she's after you. She's good at disguise, so we can't be sure of her current identity or whereabouts."

Autumn furrowed her brow, she too wanted to find a solution that would appease this predicament. However, it was just too difficult.

"Could it be Qing He"

Feng Lingxi thought for a moment and shook her head quickly.

It couldn't be Qing He. How could this peasant woman possibly be involved with someone like him Besides, Qing He doesn't seem to be a martial arts expert either.

"It's hard to say, this heart-water disguise art is so good even I can't tell. We can only be careful, but it might not be enough."

It's always good to be cautious. Qiu'er is now praying that her feelings are reciprocated by Xin Shui, and not Feng Ling Xi. Otherwise, she would drag Feng Ling Xi down with her.

"Let's first figure out what happened to Qinghe's body disappearing. I think during this period, there must be a connection."

獨孤城 looked at Qiuer, "Can you paint this ideal portrait I need to investigate."

Autumn nodded, Feng Lingxi asked someone to bring ink and paper, and Autumn immediately began to paint seriously.

Shangguan Huan looked at Feng Lingxi, “I heard that Shu Taifei had chosen many beauties for the Wangye to enter the mansion. I heard it on the street, heard the people's cursing voices, and felt that something was amiss.”

After finishing his words, Shangguan Huan glanced at Dugu City. With that said, Dugu City shouldn't misunderstand his meaning.

"You continue."

Upon hearing this, Dugu City did not show any displeasure at Shangguan Huan's words. Shangguan Huan then continued, "The common people have been muttering ceaselessly about Princess Shu giving the prince a bride. Moreover, I heard them say that they seem to be unaware of who these brides are from."

"You mean there's something wrong with these girls"

Shangguan Huan nodded, seeing Dugu City in deep thought, he opened his mouth and said, "This matter I am just guessing, how exactly, still have to investigate deeply."

"I also found that strange just now. The common people of Linxi County all know about our feelings. Before we came back, when my mother chose a concubine, no maiden was willing to come. But after we returned, suddenly thirty maidens were chosen. This is too easy."

Feng Lingxi looked at Du Gucheng, "Don't you think these girls are too easy to get"

If it were a few, she could understand, but suddenly thirty Doesn't this mean all the eligible women in Linxi County have been chosen by Dugu City

"This isn't right, I'll have Yesu look into it later."

Anyway, he doesn't care about how many women there are. It has nothing to do with him. If there is a real problem, at least he should know who the instigator behind it all is.

Feng Lingxi went to Qiuer's place and watched Qiuer painting Xinshui. The appearance of Xinshui was still fresh in her memory because she had made a grand entrance before. When she mentioned her, the scene from that day would appear in her mind.

"It's very well drawn."

Feng Lingxi opened his mouth, and Qiu'er, holding the pen in her hand, trembled slightly before nodding.

"What is Qiu'er to you Why do you hold such deep hatred for her, is she your rival in love"

"No."

Qiu'er was hunched over her drawing, Feng Lingxi's question pulling her back to the Yao clan. The grip on her brush was tight, and Feng Lingxi watched as she worked, feeling Qiu'er's hatred for Xinshui through the very ink strokes. It seemed as if she wanted to pierce the paper and kill Xinshui with the stroke of her brush.

This is a painting full of killing intent.

She made me deeply dislike her, just like the ink-colored ice that left my side. In reality, she is my arch-nemesis. Although I desperately wanted to kill her, I always failed every time.oncubine. However, she admired Luo Ze's ability. He timed it perfectly; the speed of this marriage even surprised her.After leaving the Luo Mansion, Xiaoli's face was downcast."My Queen, why would you...
