t Dugu Cheng's delighted eyes, looking at him clutching her hand, she hurriedly pulled it back, "Who are you""I…"Feng Ling Xi's words pierced Du Gu Cheng's heart. Looking at Xi Er with completely unfa...Ye Xi hurriedly raised his hand and swore, "Your Highness, I, Ye Xi, swear to heaven that I am absolutely on your side. The King was indeed drinking at a brothel last night, completely drunk as mud. It was my subordinate who guarded him, ensuring no woman came near him."
獨孤城讚賞地看著夜希,不愧是他貼身的侍衛,關鍵時候,還是他給力。
"This is your business, and it has nothing to do with me. In a few days, the concubine will enter the palace, and the prince doesn't need to go to the brothel. It would be best to avoid hurting his body and neglecting the concubine." Feng Lingxi finished speaking and left without looking back.
Dugu Cheng watched her leaving figure, and suddenly excitedly looked at Ye Xi and said, "See Xier is jealous. Anything about hurting her body or neglecting the concubine, it's all because she's jealous. She definitely likes this king."
“My Lord, what the Princess means is that you shouldn’t go to brothels for pleasure. Wait until the concubine arrives. If she finds out about your…” Night Xi trailed off, unable to finish the sentence. “She's afraid it will tarnish the reputation of the Duke's mansion.”
Du Gucheng's smile froze, and he glared at Ye Xi angrily, "Don't talk nonsense, misinterpret the meaning of the princess. How could this king be unwell"
Xier's words don't mean he isn't capable, do they
Thinking of this, Duguo City frowned. This wouldn't do; he absolutely had to explain things clearly to Xi'er.
"Xier, wait for this king."
Dugu City hurried after, Ye Xi watched the king's lackluster appearance. If she hadn't been following him all along, she would have doubted if it was still the same king. Where was the bravery and tactical mind of the battlefield
"My lady, the second concubine is truly dead now. There should be no one who can threaten your position. What are you still worrying about"
Xiao Li looked at the Queen's worried face and felt sorry for her.
Feng Lingxi walked to the table and poured herself a glass of water. Thinking about what happened today, she felt uneasy in her heart. She always felt that Feng Yu Xi had tricked her, but she also felt that she was overthinking it.
With Liu's death, logically speaking, her mother would benefit the most. But if father truly blamed her, placing all the responsibility on her mother, then the one who benefited the most would be Zhao.
Feng Lingxi rubbed her temples, never feeling so exhausted before. Perhaps she had overthought things; Xue Yu Xi and the Zhao family were not such people.
"Xiao Li, you said something happened to the Liu family. Who benefits most from this turmoil in the General's Mansion"
“Of course it’s the mistress. Is that even a question”
Feng Lingxi shook her head, “If you were Father, and Mother had killed his most beloved concubine, would you still love her”
"Of course not, and she'll think her wife is a viper with a venomous heart, even more distant from her."
Xiao Li finished speaking, suddenly realizing, "Your Highness, do you mean that this time the greatest beneficiary is Third Aunt and Third Miss"
Feng Lingxi's mood was very irritable, "I acted impulsively."
I wanted to use this opportunity to let people outside know her style of doing things, so that when the concubine entered the palace, she would be more well-behaved. However, I didn't expect to fall into their trap. Now that I think about it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get.
"Your Highness, this isn't really your fault. You were in a bad mood today, that's why you overreacted."
Feng Lingxi naturally knew it was because she was in a bad mood and acted impulsively. She shouldn't have such an impulse, but because Dugu Cheng didn't return all night last night, she miscalculated. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
To lose her composure for a man is not in keeping with Feng Lingxi's usual grace.
"If Lord Wang arrives later, tell him I'm tired and ask him to go to the study for a rest."
Feng Lingxi finished speaking and lay down. She needed to sort out her emotions properly and couldn't be swayed by Duguo City any longer. If she continued like this, she would lose control and might one day throw away her own life in a moment of impulsiveness.
"Your Highness, actually, the Wangye was quite good to you today. He's always been on your side and didn't give any face to Feng Side Consort. Otherwise, tonight…"
Feng Lingxi rolled over and looked at Xiao Li, "Xiao Li, is he your master, or am I your master"
"It's you, after all. Xiao Li takes her leave."
Feng Ling Xi had just lain down when Xiao Li came out and saw Dugu Cheng walking over. She hurriedly went to meet him.
"This slave has met the young master."
Dugu Cheng's eyes were fixed on the door, "Xiao Li, where is the princess"
"My lord, the princess said she's tired. If you come, just go to the study and sleep."
Dugu Cheng's smile froze, go to the study for a sleep
How can that be possible
"This is my king's bedroom, why would the king go to the study to sleep."
Dugu Cheng was about to step forward when Xiaoli stopped him, "Your Majesty, the Princess is in a bad mood. I think you should wait before going in."
"Feeling down"
Upon hearing this, Dugu City hurriedly beckoned to Xiaoli and walked aside to inquire.
"What's wrong with Xi Er"
"I'm not sure, My Lord. Perhaps it's best not to disturb the Lady. You can speak with her tomorrow."
Ye Xi walked up to him and whispered, "Your Highness, why don't you just withdraw first Don't anger the Crown Princess. Besides, if you go in, you'll just be sleeping on the floor anyway. It's better to sleep in the study..."
Before Ye Xi could finish speaking, she was kicked hard. Ye Xi quickly dodged the attack and giggled mischievously.
Xiao Li looked at Ye Xi like this, and couldn't help but laugh.
"There's no discipline whatsoever."
In Xier's bedroom, there's a chance to sleep on the floor or on the raised bed. But in the study, he has any chance
"What are you still doing Get out of here quickly."
Dugu Cheng, dissatisfied, left with Ye Xi. Xiaoli saw them walk away before returning to the room. She looked at the princess who had already fallen asleep and tidied up before going out to wait.
"Ye Xi, you go lead Xia Li away from me. Don't let her enter the room. I'm sleeping in the house tonight."
"My lord, do you think the princess would let you sleep in her room With your persistent and shameless behavior, you'll only make the princess dislike you. If she gets rid of you, it would be humiliating."
"She dares!"
After Dugu Cheng roared, he looked at Ye Xi who gave you a knowing glance. He coughed lightly, “This king will be more careful, Ye Xi. This king considers you a brother, so don't push it too far. At least leave some face for this king.”
"My subordinate is truly worried about Your Highness's safety, which is why he kindly reminded you."
The Queen's temper, he looked at it and felt scared. The King just went to a brothel last night, and tonight he still wants to go into the house, dream on.
"Ye Xi, this king can't help but feel that you aren't like a guard belonging to this king at all. You act more like an enemy who delights in putting me down."
Ye Xi hurriedly bowed and apologized, "Your Highness, please be calm. I was only concerned for you, which is why I spoke truthfully."
Dugu Cheng looked at him, not even wanting to speak to him.
In the study, after tossing and turning for a long time, Dugu City still couldn't sleep. He quietly snuck outside Feng Lingxi's room, saw Xiaoli dozing off at the door, groped for the window position, pushed open the window, and climbed into the room.
Looking at Feng Lingxi lying on the bed, Dugu City's heart pounded wildly. He hadn't been this nervous even when he snuck into the enemy camp, but now, he was sweating with anxiety.. I have something to do, so I'll be going now.”Li Wuyan rose to his feet and left. Feng Lingxi stood up, gazing at the snowflakes falling from the sky, lost in thought."Lord, don't take Dr. Li's word...
