Chapter 570: Conspiracy 57

Fourth Prince had spent the night at a brothel, how could he still come to the General's Mansion today Could it be that he too came to find Feng Lingxi and demand an explanation"Go take a look."Feng L..."Didn't you tell him about that time you spent at his house"

He didn't ask, how could I possibly tell him Besides, he kidnapped me with ulterior motives and wanted to harm Dugu City. How could I possibly tell him this" Feng Lingxi pursed her lips, looking at the worry in Huangfu Qingyun's eyes.

"Don't worry, he won't die anytime soon."

Huangfu Qingyun glanced at her, "I'm not worried about him, but you."

She sees things so clearly. This Dugu Yu wouldn't kill her now, but he would eventually make a move against her. Keeping him around is a future threat. Xi'er knows this yet she still does it. He truly worries about Xi'er's future.

He can't do anything to me, and besides, with Dugu City protecting me, he wouldn't dare touch me.

Feng Lingxi's smile when she mentioned Dugu City made Huangfu Qingyun's heart ache slightly. He could protect her too, even if he wasn't her fiancé. He could protect her as her brother, as long as she was willing, forever.

"That's good then, if you need anything, just let me know. Since I am your elder brother, I will never abandon you."

Feng Lingxi nodded and flashed a bright smile at Huangfu Qingyun, "Xi'er knew her elder brother was the best."

Even when she acted cute, Huangpu Qingyun could still feel the invisible barrier between them. It was always there, preventing them from truly treating each other as siblings.

Then you continue working, I'll go back first.

Feng Lingxi hurriedly got up and reached out to support him, but Huangpu Qingyun grabbed her wrist and moved away. "I'll go back myself, you busy yourself."

"Then be careful, I'll come see you later."

Huangfu Qingyun nodded, his back lengthening as he walked away. Feng Lingxi's smile gradually disappeared from her face, replaced by a look of utter helplessness.

"Your Highness, do you think Crown Prince Huofeng truly treats you as a younger sister I can't help but feel that the way he looks at you is full of affection."

Xiao Li muttered, if the King saw this scene, he would be jealous again.

"Since you treat me like a sister, your eyes looking at me are naturally the same as they would for a sister. What's wrong with that"

Feng Lingxi tapped Xiaoli's head, "Don't speculate randomly, just focus on your own tasks."

Xiao Li pouted, she wasn't blind, how could she not see it.

"Your Highness, this servant thinks you should find a woman for Prince Huanghou as soon as possible. That way, he won't keep pining after you."

"Would you like me to introduce you"

Feng Lingxi abruptly questioned, Xiao Li was so frightened her face turned pale, "My Princess, please don't joke with your servant. I'm just a maid..."

"Where was Xi that night"

Feng Ling Xi smiled mischievously, looking at Xiao Li's surprised expression, her smile deepened.

"Don't tell me you don't care about him, you even took the knife for him."

"Your Highness, I can explain! When I saw that sword heading for Ye Xi's chest, I didn't think twice. As the Young Master's personal guard, if anything happened to him, the Young Master would surely be heartbroken."

"Then you haven't thought about what would happen if you stopped them What if they cut off your hands in retaliation You wouldn't be able to get married for the rest of your life."

Feng Lingxi's words made Xiaoli frown.

"My lady, I have a few things in mind."

Wind Ling Xi feigned understanding, nodding her head slightly. "That's true. If he really injured your hand, Ye Xi would definitely be responsible for you."

"Your Highness, I have no interest in him at all."

Xiaoli anxiously explained, Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow and looked at her, that look of disbelief made Xiaoli so anxious she was about to cry.

"Only you know if that's the meaning."

"Slave..."

Feng Lingxi raised her hand and smiled brightly, "Explanation is just a cover-up, so it's better to say nothing."

Little Li looked at the princess, that wronged little look made Feng Lingxi's smile at the corner of her lips rise even further. Was she too good to Ye Xi

She really didn't have that kind of thought, that person, how could she possibly like him.

The next morning, Dugu Yu arrived with his hands respectfully offering the antidote. He treated Feng Lingxi with utmost respect. Feng Lingxi took the antidote and sniffed it at her nose before handing it to someone else. "Take three pills a day, morning, noon, and night, for three days to detoxify."

"Thank you, Fourth Royal Wife."

Feng Ling Xi went back to her room and retrieved the antidote. After studying it, she confirmed that its ingredients were identical to what she had prepared. As she suspected, the itinerant practitioner's skills weren't as refined. Some aspects weren't properly executed, causing the poison to be somewhat unorthodox but otherwise unremarkable.

Feng Lingxi understood the medicine's effects, and by dusk, the toxins had been purged from her body. Feng Lingxi felt much lighter and more energetic.

Feng Aotien also sent Feng Yixuan to the villa. Seeing Feng Lingxi, Feng Yixuan was no longer arrogant from that day. He didn't say a word, as if he allowed her to dispose of him, his eyes were somewhat hollow and lifeless.

"Xier, I entrust Yi Xuan to you."

Feng Aotien looked at Feng Yixuan's current appearance, his eyes full of reluctance, but also helpless.

Feng Ling Xi was willing to heal him, what else could he do besides following her wishes

Since I have promised, I will naturally keep my word.

Feng Aotian walked to Feng Yixuan's face, "Yixuan, listen to Xier here, father believes that you will be better soon."

Feng Yi-Xuan seemed to not hear, leaning there, without anger.

"Carry him back to the room and let him rest comfortably. Take good care of him."

Feng Lingxi commanded, looking at Feng Aotian's reluctant gaze, a cold light flashed in her eyes. "There's something else I need to ask Father about. I heard that Father has given the position of wife back to my mother and proclaimed it to the world. Everyone in the capital knows that Zhao shi is now just a concubine, while my mother is the only legitimate wife of the General's Mansion. Is this really true"

Feng Aotian nodded, “Of course it’s true. This was the Empress's intention all along, Xier can rest assured, your mother is the only wife in General Manor.”

"That's good, in a few days, the banquet for the tribute envoys will begin. There will certainly be family members from General Manor attending the banquet. Although my mother hasn't returned, since Zhao is now considered my aunt, in such an occasion, father probably wouldn't bring her, would he"

Feng Aotien's face changed drastically, looking at Feng Lingxi's cold eyes in her gaze, his fists clenched tightly.

"The Empress Dowager's mother, even if she were just a concubine, would be allowed to participate."

"Father, are you trying to make everyone laugh at you Bringing a concubine to such an important occasion, what will people think of Mother when this gets out"

Feng Ling Xi's words left Feng Ao Tian speechless. After a long silence, he said, "Xi Er, look, even your mother can't come back in time. Why don't you let Zhao Shi go With the relationship of being the empress dowager's biological daughter, no one would say anything."

Of course not, I'm just a concubine. How could I possibly replace the mistress at such an important banquet Besides, even the Empress agreed to let Zhao take over the mistress position. She should know that in such crucial occasions, it wouldn't be appropriate for Zhao to attend. Even disregarding General Mansion's reputation, we must also consider the face of the Great Yuan Dynasty.
