Chapter 694: Yao's Uprising 64

am entered, followed by several maidservants. Upon entering, she blocked the doorway.Feng Lingxi walked to the old princess's face and paid her respects."Mother Empress, it's so late for you to come t...If you can't be together, don't give him any chance.

He deserves better.

Feng Lingxi's idea wasn't wrong, but she didn't know that even if there was a sliver of hope and possibility, Huangpu Qingyun was also willing to wait. To him, Feng Lingxi was the best he thought.

Luo Li retracted her gaze from her, and smiled.

It's true that there isn't anything that wouldn't appear on Feng Lingxi. She is indeed a captivating woman.

Feng Lingxi retracted her gaze and saw Luoli remained silent, not uttering a word, but closing her eyes in meditation. Xiao Li sat beside her, watching the princess like this, feeling resentful towards the King in her heart. She had waited for an hour, and the King hadn't returned. Could it be that he was truly blaming the princess and unwilling to come back

The carriage wasn't going slowly. Today the sun was out, and the snow on the road had been melting all day. They should be able to reach Yaozu before nightfall.

Du Gu Cheng received the news that Feng Ling Xi had returned to Yaozu in the afternoon. After going out and coming back, he heard the news and immediately returned to the City Lord's Mansion, but Xi'er had already left, leaving only a letter on the table. Du Gu Cheng looked at the contents of the letter, which was similar to Xiao Li's explanation.

Dugu Cheng, I should have told you about this a long time ago. The only reason I didn't was because I didn't know how to speak to you. The child is gone, and I am heartbroken. Now, there is nothing I can say to change what has happened. I need to return to the Yao Clan to attend to their affairs. When I am finished, I will come back. If you have any thoughts or feelings, please tell me. I won't blame you and will respect your choices.

Dugu City held the letter, what did it mean

What does it mean to respect his choices even if you don't understand his thoughts

Could it be that in Xi'er's heart, he, Dugucheng, was so insignificant From beginning to end, he only loved the child and not her

Dugu Cheng crumpled the letter in his hand, his face ashen. He was increasingly unable to understand how Xier could have such a perception of him.

He received a notice this morning that the various tribes were restless and mobilizing, and he was worried it would be detrimental to Xincun County. So he went to check on the situation. He had planned to explain things about their child to her when he returned, but unexpectedly, she misunderstood what happened.

Does he treat her well She really doesn't feel it, does she

Dugu City was very angry, and his anger burned to the extreme. Things happened suddenly, he had only been out for half a day, and people were gone.

Most importantly, the content of the letter Xi'er left behind. He was really angry, Xi'er didn't understand him.

Ye Xi watched the King's face from the side, knowing that when the Princess returned to the Yao clan, the King rushed back non-stop, but unfortunately, he was still a step late.

"My lord, perhaps we should go to the Yao Clan and explain things clearly to the princess. I think the princess understands your feelings, she won't be angry."

Xi'er probably thinks that this King only cares about the child in her belly, and there is still a gap between them.

Dugu City forlornly put away the letter in his hand, but his heart couldn't calm down.

"My lord, if you don't explain clearly, how can the princess know your heart Do you hope that the princess will always have opinions about you Xiaoli has someone inform the princess, it is nothing more than hoping that there can be a clear explanation between my lord and the princess. We should still go to the Yao tribe."

"Fine, let her handle the Yao Clan's affairs by herself. This King has things here that won't allow me to leave."

After Dugu Cheng finished speaking, he left the room. Ye Xi saw that the King had left, her eyes full of worry.

Wind Lingxi returned to the Yaozu on New Year's Day. When Yao Zhi received the news, he was almost shocked to death and rushed back to the Yaozu overnight, but he still arrived a step late. Wind Lingxi called a meeting of elders as soon as she returned to the Yaozu. Yao Zhi, who did not attend the elder's meeting, was naturally named by Wind Lingxi.

Because this time, besides Feng Lingxi, the clan chief was also present at the Elder Assembly, all elders were gathered, except for Yao Zhi. At the Elder Assembly, Feng Lingxi specially asked about Yao Zhi's whereabouts. The elders stammered for a long time without giving a response.

Feng Lingxi stared coldly at the eight elders present, besides Yao Zhi and Yao Chu. The eight elders, led by Yao Yi, had been targeted by Yao Zhi ever since Yao Chu's accident. Yao Zhi hated Yao Yi and wanted to find an opportunity to get rid of him.

Yao Yi is a rather smooth talker. He managed to prevent Yao Zhi from succeeding, and now that Feng Ling Xi is inquiring about Yao Zhi's whereabouts, he naturally seized the opportunity to reveal everything. He informed Feng Ling Xi of Yao Zhi's absence from the Yao clan these past few days, and also took the chance to report to Feng Ling Xi about Yao Zhi going down the mountain to meet with the tribal chief.

Although the elders wanted to stop her, Yao Zhi wasn't there. They said a few words for Yao Zhi and didn't dare to say anything more. Although they were all Yao Zhi's people, after all, they were elders. How could they not see that Feng Lingxi was eyeing Yao Zhi this time If they said more, they would inevitably be added to the elimination list.

The position of the Yao Clan Saint Master, they have no share in it anyway. They might as well stay put and remain elders. Then we'll see what happens later.

Feng Lingxi stared coldly at the elders present. Seeing that they were all silent, her eyes fell on Yao Yi.

"Elder Two, what you say is all true. Elder Three is also an elder of our Yao clan, how could he possibly break the clan rules and meet with chiefs from other tribes"

Yao Yi hurriedly said, "Chieftain, Saintess, what I say is true. Yao Zhi did meet with the chieftain of our tribe. This is known to all the elders here. If you don't believe me, you can ask them. This matter is no longer a secret within the tribe."

When he was shaken out, the faces of the other elders turned pale with panic. They lowered their heads and avoided eye contact.

Feng Lingxi looked at them, “Elderly ones, you all know the rules of the Yao clan. Now that the Clan Head is here, you should tell us, about this matter, do you know anything or not”

"Holy Maiden, we are indeed aware of this matter. However, the three elders have yet to provide us with an explanation, and we are unsure how to inquire further."

"What explanation did he give you Can't even a elder change the Yao clan's rules"

Feng Lingxi coldly reprimanded, her expression extremely stern. The elders had never seen Feng Lingxi so cold and sharp in her inquiries about the Yao clan's affairs. For a moment, they were frightened by her, each lowering their heads and daring not to speak.

"The Yao clan's rules clearly state that clan members are not allowed to collude with outsiders. Violators will be considered traitors to the clan, and will either be expelled from the Yao clan or face punishment, depending on the severity of the offense. Is that right"

Yao Yi heard Feng Lingxi's words and quickly agreed, "The Saintess is right, the clan rules clearly state that we are not allowed to associate with outsiders. Yao Zhi is knowingly breaking the rules. I think he wants to betray the clan and become the Sacred Master."

"The Second Elder is right, Yao Zhi must have harbored rebellious intentions against his clan."

The four elders followed suit, and the other elders also agreed. They all defected. At this critical juncture, they weren't blind or deaf, so how could they not hear The Saintess wanted to get rid of Yao Zhi. If they continued to help Yao Zhi, they would probably end up badly themselves. and caught the plague, would he be able to take the blame"Ye Xi nodded. "Your Highness makes a valid point. What should my subordinate do to refuse the visitors"Feng Lingxi thought for a moment, “Jus...
