Chapter 318: Seizing Power 73
, what are you nervous about It's just the two of us, don't be tense."It's understandable to be nervous, I have no idea what she means by that.The Empress wouldn't want to publicize what she and Dugu..."Ye Xi, I didn't tell Dugu Cheng that I recovered my memory because it wasn't as you think. I need to handle the Yao Clan's affairs first. The traitors haven't been caught yet. If they knew I had regained my memories, they would be more guarded."
Compared to the previous Feng Ling Xi, they would rather capture a Feng Ling Xi who has lost their memory.
She wanted to act as bait, lure Yao Feifei out, and all they needed to do was cooperate.
"Your Highness, you may discuss this with the King before making a decision."
Ye Xi was still not at ease. If the Wangye knew, he would certainly be happy.
"Do you think he'd still make me take this risk if he knew Yao Feifei wants Zixing. They know I have amnesia now, and we just captured their people. They won't act rashly for a while. Me relaxing my guard and coming out right now is the biggest temptation to Yao Feifei."
If she doesn't need help, she won't tell him her thoughts.
This teahouse is a good place. The window is on the second floor, and you can see people on the street. If anyone appears nearby, she'll know it first. These days, as long as she comes here a few times, she believes Yao Feifei will definitely appear.
Even if she didn't show up, news of her going out would reach Yao Feifei's ears, prompting her to take action.
"But it's very dangerous for the princess to do this. The prince knows, he still won't agree."
Feng Lingxi curled her lips, and the look in her eyes made Ye Xi shiver.
"That's why I need your help."
Ye Xi at this moment really wished he had never appeared before the princess. He felt, he was truly going to die this time.
"Don't worry, I won't take your life."
If he were to die, he'd feel better. He was afraid of the demands the Princess would make, which would be more terrifying than death itself. As the Prince's guard, he really didn't want to be on the Princess's side.
Well, don't you want to
Feng Lingxi narrowed her eyes, looking at Ye Xi's expression, her brows furrowed slightly.
Ye Xi hurriedly said, "No, my subordinate wouldn't be unwilling, I'm delighted to do so, Your Highness, please command."
The king listens to his queen, can he possibly resist
Feng Lingxi took in Ye Xi's expression, "First, don't tell Dugu Cheng about my recovered memory. Second, Dugu Cheng has asked you to protect me. After you finish your meal, find a good hiding place and closely monitor my movements. If they appear, don't rush forward, call for reinforcements."
"How can this be, Your Highness If anything were to happen to you, how could I possibly explain it to the King"
"I can protect myself, let alone with Xiao Li."
Ye Xi glanced at Xiao Li, "Your Highness, are you sure she can protect you"
Xiao Li's chopsticks were pressed against Ye Xi's neck, her voice cold and menacing, "Want to try"
Just kidding.
Ye Xi carefully moved the chopsticks from his neck. He was just saying it casually, wasn't he also worried about her
Why so fierce Aren't you afraid of not getting married
Feng Lingxi looked at the interaction between the two of them, a smile appeared on her face. "Eat quickly, I'll be going out in a while."
Xiaoli retracted her chopsticks, ate with a cold face. Yexi touched his neck, glanced at Xiaoli, muttered two words softly, Xiaoli's eyes turned cold, Yexi immediately wilted, and lowered his head to eat.
After having lunch at the restaurant, Feng Lingxi didn't wait for Yao Feifei and the others to appear. She took Xiao Li to go shopping on the street. As per her instructions earlier, Ye Xi followed them secretly after finishing her meal. Xiao Li and she strolled around aimlessly, just like before she lost her memory, buying everything they could get their hands on.
Feng Lingxi bought a lot of medicinal herbs and sent them back home. For her, medicine was the safest.
The two of them strolled the streets for half a day, exhausted and hadn't seen a single tail following them. As evening approached, they still hadn't seen one, so they finally returned home.
When Dugu City learned that Feng Lingxi was back, he immediately went to her, seeing the fatigue on her face. He was about to speak when Ye Xi followed in and pulled him aside.
"My lord, don't provoke the princess." Today, he didn't wait for Yao Feifei, and after spending another day wandering around, he could feel the princess's intense anger from across the street.
Dugu Cheng was frightened by Ye Xi's words, no wonder Xi'er didn't even raise her eyelids when she saw him.
"Still haven't gotten over it after a whole day of shopping"
Did the King look at what the Princess bought
Dugu Cheng shook his head. He didn't have time to care what was bought back. He had been busy until half an hour ago, and then Yao Wan Ying called him over for a long while. It was only when he finally got free that he heard Xi'er return. He rushed over at the first opportunity, but unexpectedly Xi'er was still so angry.
"The Prince knows the Princess's temper. Her subordinates follow her, holding back for a long time, just afraid that the Princess will get angry."
"This king will go and bring her a bowl of lotus seed soup to clear the heat."
Unbelievable, he forgot everything and now his temper is even worse, just as terrifying as before the amnesia.
Feng Lingxi was in a bad mood, and Dugucheng's heart was also up and down. He was afraid that she would suddenly agree to marry Huangfu Qingyun. At that time, he would really lose his wife and gain nothing.
"I didn't expect that we spent the whole day shopping and still couldn't get Yao Feifei out. I'm afraid yesterday's incident disturbed them."
Feng Lingxi poured herself a glass of water, her beautiful eyes full of impatience.
"Your Highness, although we didn't lure them out today, this servant believes Yao Feifei and the others must know we went out."
Xiao Li comforted, she knew the princess was restless, she herself wasn't any better. This Yao Feifei was a traitor of the Yao clan, as long as she wasn't caught, the Yao clan would be in danger for another day, and the princess even more so.
"Where are the medicinal herbs I bought Bring them to my room. Don't let Dugu City come looking for me, I want to refine some protective potions."
She only knows surface-level techniques and can only rely on poison for protection.
If Yao Feifei really wanted her life, she wouldn't dare to talk to Feng Yu Xi like that, giving her a chance to turn things around.
"This servant will go get the medicine right away, Your Highness. Please be careful in your chambers."
Feng Lingxi waved his hand, what could there possibly be going on inside his own home.
Xiao Li went out for a while, and then had someone bring the purchased herbs over. Feng Lingxi put the herbs away, and she heard footsteps outside. Dugu Cheng called out, "Xi'er"
"Hide quickly."
Feng Lingxi hurriedly got up and went out. Seeing Dugu City walking in with a bowl, she frowned and walked over.
"How did you get here"
Dugu Cheng's smile froze, looking at Xi'er's impatient expression. Thinking of Ye Xi saying she had a fiery temper, he hurriedly accompanied her with a smile and said, "I'll bring you some lotus seed soup. It's hot weather, drinking this will help cool down the fire."
Feng Ling Xi took it, tested the temperature, not hot, drank the lotus seed soup in one gulp, returned the bowl to him. Such a scene left Dugu Cheng speechless.
Is this really good for Xi'er
"I'm full, you can go out now."
Feng Lingxi opened her mouth to drive people away, she wanted to refine medicine, Dugu Cheng being here would only raise suspicion.ster, or you can choose to have her help you handle the affairs of the Yao clan.""If I return the position of the Holy Lord, will I be free"Feng Lingxi thought of her mother being forced to jump off a...
