Chapter 349: Seize Power 104
ple, her consciousness gradually fading.She must find a man to antidote her as quickly as possible, or else the poison will take hold and she'll die here. Wouldn't it be a shame to waste the opportuni...Feng Ling Xi heard Feng Yu Xi's words, her heart was slightly surprised. It seemed that Du Gu Cheng's whereabouts were all under their eyes. Could it be that her identity had also been suspected by them
"Noble Consort sister, this princess heard that the Fourth Prince has a wife, is that true"
Feng Lingxi had a curious look on her face. Seeing Feng Yu Xi's expression stiffen, she complained, "My elder brother won't even tell me. I don't want to marry the Fourth Prince blindly."
"Doesn't Princess Yaohua like the Fourth Prince"
Feng Lingxi lowered her head, looking dejected. Feng Yu Xi hurriedly asked, "Princess Yao Hua, is there anything you need"
"This princess only wanted to marry the Fourth Prince because he is a war god. However, this princess heard that he has a queen and that he likes his queen. Moreover, before, the Fourth Prince went to the Xia Dynasty to find that woman. As the honorable princess of the Xia Dynasty, how can I stoop to being a concubine"
Feng Lingxi's words shocked Feng Yu Xi. Could the Yao Hua princess before them really be the princess from the Arah Summer Dynasty Hearing her speak, she didn't seem like Feng Lingxi at all.
"Rest assured, Your Highness. Since you're marrying into the family, how could you ever become a concubine I assure you, the Fourth Prince's wife poisoned the late emperor. She is no longer worthy of being his consort. When the Fourth Prince returns, we will divorce her immediately. The position of Fourth Princess Consort will be yours, and no one can take it away."
Feng Lingxi heard Feng Yu Xi's words, and her face was filled with delight. "Really This princess told you so! How could a general's daughter possibly compete with this princess for the position of Fourth Princess"
"This is nature."
Despite the wind and rain, she smiled as she faced Yao Hua Princess. From her personality to the way she spoke, she was nothing like Feng Ling Xi. This princess seemed a bit spoiled and willful, but also kindhearted. She probably wouldn't deceive her.
But she still had to find a way to see her face, or else she wouldn't be able to go back and report.
"Princess Yaohua, after strolling around all morning, are you hungry Perhaps we should find a restaurant for lunch"
"But I can't take off my veil, what if someone sees my face My brother will scold me."
Feng Lingxi put on an act of wanting to go, but also fearing being scolded. Feng Yuxi hurriedly said, "There's a private room in the wine shop ahead. Princess, you wouldn't mind me seeing your face, would you"
"You're not a man, so what do you have to be bothered about"
Feng Lingxi's eyes lit up, "Then let's go eat quickly, I'm starving!"
As the wind and rain lashed, Feng Yu hurriedly brought her to a restaurant. They entered a private room, ordered some dishes, and each had their maidservants attending to them inside.
"Ali, take the veil."
After Feng Lingxi sat down, she removed her veil, revealing a radiant face. Compared to before, Feng Lingxi looked completely different, yet she was also a rare beauty. Xiao Li, who was watching, was astonished, but her heart felt at ease.
She should have thought of it earlier, the princess could change her face with a disguise, her face would have already been disguised.
Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yu Xi who was staring at her face, and smiled brightly.
"Noble Consort sister, what are you looking at me for"
Feng Yu Xi Lian hurriedly said, “Princess Yao Hua, you are so beautiful. Your eyes seem to be able to speak, and they make people like you just by looking at them.”
Feng Lingxi smiled bashfully, "Your Majesty, please don't say that, it makes me feel embarrassed."
When the food arrived, Feng Lingxi didn't act like a princess at all. She ate happily and told Yu Yixu a lot about herself, embellishing stories about her identity with Huang Xia Chao. Throughout the meal, Yu Yixu mostly smiled and took the opportunity to ask Feng Lingxi about things. Feng Lingxi answered them all.
Feng Ling was sent back to the inn, and Feng Yu Xi returned to the General's Mansion in the evening rain. When Feng Ao Tian saw her return, he saw that her expression was wrong, and she seemed reluctant to meet her. However, Feng Yu Xi called him over.
"Father, are you sure it was Feng Lingxi who orchestrated the battle in Linxi County"
Feng Aotian saw her mention it and asked, "Why does Xi Gui-fei ask such a question"
"Hearing Princess Yao Hua's words, I suspect that Feng Ling Xi might not have actually been brought here by them."
After Feng Yu Xi finished speaking, she looked at Feng Aotien and hastily explained, "Father, what I mean is, if Xi'er is really in their hands, we would also try our best to save her. It's just that from Princess Yao Hua's words, there are some doubts about the daughter."
"During the Battle of Linxi County, I didn't see Xi'er make a move. Before the battle, I saw your sister. She had just recovered from a serious illness and was quite stubborn. Her speaking style, as you know, has always been like that."
Feng Aotian's words left Feng Yuxi in deep thought and suspicion.
"Father, the fourth sister likes to refine medicine. This Princess Yao Hua likes to refine poison. Logically speaking, they should be able to become good friends, but why, listening to Princess Yao Hua's words, is she very dissatisfied with the fourth sister"
Wind Aotian shook his head, “I don’t know about that. When the Fourth Prince sent people to save my father to Linxi County, my father never saw Xi'er again. I don't know what happened.”
Under the stormy twilight, I was speechless. Thinking of my mother's words, I cautiously asked, "Father, I heard that you brought back a woman when you returned this time. Because she looks like Fourth Sister's mother, you brought her back"
"You're saying Yingying, she and Xi'er's mother look very alike. Their father brought her back, wanting to keep her at the estate. He wants her to be here when Xi'er returns next time, so she can see her. It's also a small way to compensate for what happened."
"Just because someone is dead, does that mean finding a similar person can compensate for it"
Feng Yu Xi unhappily raised an eyebrow, “With you acting like this, how can my mother bear to live”
"Xigui, you and your four sisters, Lingyu is dead, and both you and Linglong have become noble concubines. Your youngest sister is now a fugitive. If you meet her again one day, father would let her see Yingying as a way to give her some closure."
"Are you trying to treat her like your mother"
Feng Aotian saw Feng Yu Xi's fury and soothed her, "Let her stay in the mansion first. Isn't Empress Dowager going to hand over Feng Ling Xi to the Xia Dynasty after this visit By then, Yingying will be useful." Feng Aotian hurriedly found an excuse, and Feng Yu Xi heard this and suppressed her anger.
How could she have forgotten, that woman Feng Lingxi wouldn't appear if not for this woman who looked just like her mother. If she were to be pushed out, perhaps Feng Lingxi would be lured out at that time, and it would also eliminate the big worry in her heart.
Since Father is doing things for the court, then let her stay at the mansion temporarily. However, I hope Father clarifies things so she doesn't truly think of herself as the fourth sister's mother.
Feng Yu Xi dropped a sentence and left.
Yao Wan'ying walked out from the shadows, staring at Feng Yu Xi's departing back, and walked toward Feng Aotiān.
"I'm going for a walk."
"You..."
Yao Wan'ying glared coldly, "Don't forget what I told you."
Feng Aotiān swallowed the words that were about to leave his lips. The current Wǎnyíng was really not the one he knew anymore.
Feng Lingxi returned to the inn, and Huangpu Qingyun called her in for tea. Looking at the sweat on her forehead, he reached out and wiped it away.
"Xier, haven't you been discovered by her"
Feng Lingxi removed the veil, revealing a stranger's face. Huangfu Qingyun saw this and instantly understood.tions. None of you are to leave the palace grounds without my command.""Thank you, Empress Dowager."Feng Linglong and Shen Yun hurriedly thanked them and got up to leave.They both sobered up a bit, re...
