Chapter 51: Fighting on the Bedframe 15
eaking, Du Gu Cheng suppressed his anger and looked at Feng Ling Xi's smug look. He clenched his fists, his forbearance made the Empress Dowager feel a lot more comfortable in her heart.Feng Lingxi is...“There isn’t, Xier is doing well and very happy. With the kind of love from Fourth Prince, how could she not be happy” Feng Lingxi hurriedly said to prevent her from worrying about her, Zhang sighed and her eyes were full of sorrow.
"Xi'er, are you still blaming your mother for marrying you into the Fourth Prince's Mansion"
Feng Ling Xi shook her head, comforting her, "Mother, Xi'er has never regretted marrying into the Fourth Prince's Residence."
She never expected that the dead Du Gu Cheng was actually faking his death. This marriage was all orchestrated by him. Thinking of that cunning man, Feng Ling Xi felt angry. Now that Du Gu Cheng treated her this way, it made her feel even more that he had ulterior motives.
Zhang listened to her say these things and didn't want to keep hiding them from her any longer.
"Xier, do you still remember when the imperial decree arrived and your mother sent Zhao Gonggong away At that time, Zhao Gonggong told your mother that your marriage was a match granted by the Emperor. If you defied the decree, your head would be chopped off. Zhao Gonggong also said that when you married into the Fourth Prince's mansion, no one would bully you. That's why your mother agreed."
"Mother, this marriage was bestowed by the Emperor. We cannot disobey his decree. Besides, the wedding has already taken place. Mother needn't dwell on it anymore. Furthermore, the Fourth Prince is treating me very well now. It can be considered a good match."
Feng Ling xi, seeing her pained expression, changed the subject.
"Mother, has father been kind to you these days"
Speaking of this, a barely perceptible blush appeared on Zhang's face.
"Your father treats your mother well, and now that you are the Fourth Princess Consort, he has also been paying much more attention to me."
Seeing her mother like this, Feng Lingxi smiled and said, "Then Mother should get pregnant with a younger brother sooner, so that Father can be happy."
“Mother, you’re getting on in years. Don’t count on anything anymore. As for Xier, the Fourth Prince has returned. You must seize this opportunity and quickly give him an heir to secure your position as the Fourth Princess Consort. Otherwise, when concubines enter the palace later, it will be much harder for you to have children.”
Zhang shi cautioned, she had already come, with this woman around, grace would diminish, let alone, Xi'er’s personality, she truly worried that the Fourth Prince would later have a new person and forget the old one.
"Mother, Xi'er understands everything. Don't worry about me, please take care of yourself and don't make me worry."
Zhang patted her hand, "Xi'er has grown up, mother will also take care of herself."
As the two of them chatted, they saw Liu Shi coming over with fruit. Seeing their warm interaction, she smiled gently and stepped forward, "Xier, I've prepared some fruit for you."
Liu Shi's arrival caused Feng Ling Xi's smile to gradually fade. Watching Liu Shi's enthusiastic greetings, Zhang Shi hurriedly thanked her, "Xiao Die, you shouldn't have done this yourself. It should be left to the servants."
"Sister, we are all family. Xi'er is now the Fourth Princess Consort, and I must serve her well."
Liu looked at Feng Lingxi, seeing that her face was slightly cold, she smiled and said, "Xier, the Fourth Prince is very good to you. Seeing how happy you are now, I am truly delighted for you."
Feng Ling's eyes swept over her, thinking of her being defiled. Was she reminding him that he hadn't settled the score with her yet
"Where Second Mistress spoke, back when she entered the Fourth Prince's Manor, Xi’er didn't expect to be where she is today. Come to think of it, she really owes much to Second Mistress's chicken soup."
When chicken soup was mentioned, Liu's face slightly changed, her eyes flickered with panic before disappearing quickly. She hurriedly calmed the fluctuations in her emotions and looked at Feng Lingxi's slightly cold gaze. When she brought up chicken soup at this time, could it be that something really happened that night
Now that she's the Fourth Princess, if they were to really bring charges against her, how could she possibly defend herself
"Xiaodie, you even made chicken soup for Xier, I'm so grateful. You take such good care of her, more than I, her own mother, do." Zhang's words of thanks only made Liu's face even uglier. She looked at Feng Lingxi, forcing a smile and saying, "Sister, this is what I should do."
Feng Lingxi let out a smile, looking at Liu Shi.
"Second Aunt, all three sisters are now of marriageable age. This princess consort has been thinking about finding good matches for them. What do you think, Second Aunt"
Hearing her claiming to be the princess right in front of her, Liu's face grew increasingly ugly. She was showing off her status as a princess right in front of her.
If she really pressed her about what happened that night, Liu shi would be terrified just thinking about it.
"Xier, your three elder sisters' marriages will be arranged by your father. Of course, if you have a suitable candidate, that would be even better."
Feng Lingxi tapped the table thoughtfully, her pensive gaze making Liu shi even more nervous.
"Rest assured, Second Aunt. The marriages of the three elder sisters are entrusted to me, this Princess Consort. I will definitely find the best husbands for them."
Feng Lingxi's words made Liu Shi's forehead break out in a cold sweat. She was certain that Feng Lingxi would never be so kind, she wouldn't want revenge, ruining Linglong's life, would she
"Who cares if you help me find a husband"
Feng Linglong walked over, followed by Feng Lingyu and Feng Yu Xi. The three of them glared at Feng Lingxi with dissatisfaction, looking at her current appearance, they were speechless with anger.
"Older Sister, Little Sister Four was kind enough to help us. How can you say such things" Feng Yu Xi's age was a month older than Feng Ling Xi, born to the third concubine. She was also a natural beauty, but unlike Feng Ling Yu and Feng Ling Long, she lacked the girliness of those two.
Feng Ling Xi rarely came into contact with her, but now looking at her, she seemed rather pleasing.
"What does Third Sister mean by this Does that mean we need her to find us husbands I don't want to marry just anyone."
Feng Lingyu's gaze swept across Feng Lingxi, "Fourth sister, is the Fourth Prince truly good to you or are you just putting on a show in front of us We all have eyes. You're only beautiful, even if you weren't foolish before, wanting to be the rightful wife is wishful thinking."
"Lingyu, how can you speak like that Quickly apologize to Xi'er, she is now the Fourth Princess."
Liu angrily yelled and slapped Feng Lingyu's face hard.
Feng Lingyu covered her face and glared angrily at Feng Lingxi, biting her lip and questioning, "Mother, why are you afraid of her What I said is the truth. She's a woman who has lost her innocence, and the Fourth Prince isn't stupid. How could he possibly like her..."
"Shut up!"
Liu's fury surged, and she slapped Feng Lingyu across the face. The five distinct fingerprints left on her cheek made Feng Lingxi's eyebrows twitch in surprise. She hadn't expected Liu to be so brutal.
"If you utter another word out of place, I'll kill you."
Liu's entire body trembled with anger. This idiot, no matter what, shouldn't have said these things in front of Feng Lingxi. Is he trying to die
She is now the Fourth Princess Consort.
Zhang listened to Feng Lingyu's words, her face changed drastically, she hurriedly grabbed Feng Lingxi's hand, "Xi'er, what does Lingyu mean Are you..."at Feng Lingxi's anger, and smiled, "Do you know what the Yaozu's treasures are Don't even think about it. For over a thousand years, how many people have wanted to get their hands on these treasures,...
