Chapter 846: Falling Frost Flower (36)
and after much deliberation, she selected a few. After the selection was complete, several daughters of ministers were left out. Empress Dowager Cen looked at Feng Lingxi, "What do you think of these...When Feng Lingxi got up, Dugu City was no longer in the room. A note and a crossbow were left by her side. When Feng Lingxi got up, she looked at the refurbished crossbow and her eyes became even softer.
It turned out that last night, Dugu City was helping her fix this.
It has to be better than what she made.
"Your Highness, did the King return last night"
Xiaoli's face was full of smiles. Knowing that the King would be coming, she had specially instructed the Shadow Guards to let him pass, pretending not to see him. Everyone outside said that the relationship between the Princess and the King was so good. Some even bet their entire fortune on their separation, unafraid of losing money.
It's Ye Xi, she said that the king bought 100,000 taels from the prince and princess. The king and the princess won't divorce. When this is opened, the king will make a big profit.
Xiao Li only then realized that the Wangye and the Crown Princess were indeed very good at playing. Both of them bought so much silver, who knows how much silver all the people in this city have lost This gambling house is probably going to shut down.
"Seeing that you're in a good mood, have all the herbs been delivered to Li Wuyan"
Xiao Li gave a light smile, “This servant will naturally do whatever the Princess commands.” She put down the breakfast in her hands and, seeing the Princess tidying her clothes, hurried over to help.
"Your Majesty, when I returned, everyone in the city was talking about the separation of the King and the Queen."
"Separation"
Feng Lingxi curled her lips, "When did I ever break up with Dugu Cheng How would I not know about such a thing"
"The casinos are all betting, you have no idea, they're all betting on you two breaking up."
"Well, that's great! That way, I'll make a killing."
Feng Lingxi carefully stored her bow and crossbow, a cold glint flashing in her beautiful eyes. "Have there been any news from the palace The Empress Dowager summoned Mother to the palace; she wouldn't have said nothing, would she"
"I heard that Shou'an Palace was quite lively yesterday, with the Empress Dowager, Empress, Lan Fei, and Shu Taifei all present. Shu Taifei seems to be doing well at Shou'an Palace. The Empress Dowager only inquired about the Duchess's condition and did nothing unfavorable towards Shu Taifei."
"Mother, as long as you're fine."
Having learned that Shu Taifei was unharmed, Feng Lingxi felt relieved.
She also believed that Shutai could handle it with ease, and as for when she would enter the palace, it wouldn't be anytime soon.
The Empress Dowager proposed to leave the palace and return to her residence, but she was stopped by Lan Fei. She was even scolded by the Empress Dowager, who told her not to leave the palace. This morning, General Feng entered the palace to meet the Empress.
Little Li reported meticulously, her information network was extensive. Feng Lingxi nodded slightly, "Feng Yuxi couldn't leave the palace, she must be displeased with Lan Fei, and I believe King Pingbei will soon enter the palace to meet the emperor. It seems another good show is about to begin."
Feng Lingxi tidied up. "We're going to Tianxiang Lou today, let someone inform the clan leader that I'm treating them to a meal at Tianxiang Lou."
Little Li wore a puzzled expression, "Your Highness, you're going out today. I'm afraid there are many eyes watching you in the city. Are you really going to go out"
Feng Lingxi nodded, "Call Grandpa and Yu Mo, take them out for a good meal, I'll treat."
Xiao Li responded, but she didn't understand what the Princess meant. She knew that with so many eyes on her right now, going to Tianxiang Lou was dangerous. Who knows how many people were out there trying to assassinate her.
Feng Yu Mo and Feng Cang Kai knew they were going to Tianxiang Building today, so they cooperated and followed Feng Ling Xi.
Feng Cangkai's curiosity and interest in Feng Lingxi stemmed from her unpredictable style of doing things, which left him guessing.
"Xier, that box you gave to Zhao shi, when are you going to ask her for it back"
"What day is it today"
Zhao Shi also didn't proactively hand over the box to her. Feng Ling Xi now thinks back, after the box was opened, Zhao Shi was fine, she couldn't help but wonder if this ice silkworm was truly as Xiao Si Mu said, the origin of the Frost Flower.
If her judgement is wrong, she will have to find another remedy for Luoshuang flower.
"It's been three days."
Feng Yu Mo looked at his elder sister's furrowed brows and worriedly asked, "Sister, do you think that box might be lost by the Zhao family She didn't say she would return it to you."
"I told her to keep it and didn't say when she should return it to me, so naturally she wouldn't give it back." At least, Zhao wouldn't return the box to her until she figured out what was inside.
But when she understood, it would probably be too late to remedy the situation.
"Sister, are you not worried that Zhao would secretly give your box to the Empress"
Feng Lingxi smiled lightly, "If that's the case, it'll be even more interesting."
Feng Yu Mo didn't understand Feng Ling Xi's meaning, and she didn't ask further. Feng Cang Kai just listened to the conversation between his niece and nephew without interrupting. These days of observation, he found that his granddaughter, Feng Ling Xi, had a frightening mind. She seemed to have many secrets hidden from him.
She was just a seventeen-year-old girl, after all. There were many things that simply couldn't be explained. She had a sudden illness and then miraculously recovered. After she got better, she became skilled in martial arts, as if she were a completely different person.
Upon arriving at Tianxiang Lou, Luoli and Li Wuyan were already there. Besides them, there was also the owner of Tianxiang Lou, Feng Lingxi. Upon seeing him, Feng Lingxi first frowned slightly before politely greeting him.
"Is the OP here today"
Dugu Cheng was a little displeased. Xi'er seemed very reluctant to see him.
Luo Li smiled. Feng Ling Xi's reaction was interesting, she really didn't know what kind of reaction she would have if she knew that Duguo Cheng was the master of Tianxiang Lou.
"It was I who invited the poster to join."
Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li, her beautiful eyes sweeping over Dugu City, her expression puzzled.
"The owner of Tianxiang Building and the chieftain of Yao Clan are actually this close"
What's wrong
Luo Li frowned, "Could it be that I can't have friends"
"Of course not." Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, her eyes slightly cold, "I just didn't expect the host would grace so many people with their presence."
Luo Li looked at Feng Cang Kai, "Besides General Feng and me, all of us have met the樓主."
Feng Lingxi's lips twitched slightly, "It seems like that, she's overthinking things."
"Now, both inside and outside the palace are saying that you and the Fourth Prince plan to separate and move back to the General's Mansion. This matter has caused a huge stir throughout the city. Don't you come out and explain it to them"
Luo Li poured a cup of tea for Feng Ling, smiling and asking.
Feng Cangkai looked at these extraordinary young people, the shock in his eyes couldn't escape Luoli's gaze. Their gazes met, and Feng Cangkai smiled slightly at Feng Cangkai.
Feng Cangkai considered himself a veteran of the battlefield, having spent decades in it, yet he had never seen anyone like Luo Li. This young man exuded confidence, as if everything were under his control.
"What should I say to explain this to the chief"
Feng Ling Xi held a cup of tea and took a sip, her beautiful eyes sweeping over the street below. “Their mouths are on their own bodies, so whatever they say goes. What explanation could I possibly give If I said no, would they believe me”
"If you don't say, how do you know they don't believe"
"Why should we care if they believe it or not" Feng Lingxi glanced at Dugu City, "If one lives so concerned with the opinions of others, I believe both the樓主 and the clan leader wouldn't be as carefree as they are now."
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi, the eyes under the mask held a hint of admiration, but he didn't show it.his old slave has delivered you to the palace gates. Please return home carefully."Grandma Zhang bowed respectfully to Feng Lingxi, her voice very polite."Thank you, Grandma Zhang, today."Feng Lingxi...
