Chapter 496 Revenge 140

young lady sets her eyes on, who dares to snatch it""Miss Ye, if this were to reach the Emperor's ears, I fear it might affect Master Ye's career."A man in a blue robe walked in, handsome and tall, wi..."What a deep affection!"

Feng Lingxi sneered and opened her mouth, looking at Feng Yu Xi's eyes that were burning with jealousy. Although she was clearly jealous to death, she still endured and said these things to her.

She wasn't a fool. She could tell he had feelings for her, but they weren't genuine. It was just possessiveness. He regretted not being able to have her, wanting nothing more than the Yao clan treasure she possessed.

"If you hadn't said these things, perhaps I would have agreed with you out of consideration for your earnest plea. Now, I can only avoid involvement. Your Majesty, please return."

Feng Lingxi stood up and said coldly, "Xiao Li, see the guest off."

"Feng Ling Xi, are you truly going to be so heartless, to turn against this palace"

Feng Lingxi turned her head and looked into Feng Yu Xi's eyes, seeing the anger burning within them. She couldn't help but laugh.

"Opposing me Your Majesty truly overestimates yourself. You, you dare"

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, ignoring Feng Yu Xi's pale face filled with fury. She turned and left.

"Feng Ling Xi..."

Wind and rain rushed forward, trying to stop her. A figure suddenly appeared from the shadows, stopping her.

"Your Majesty, this is the Fourth Prince's Manor. The Fourth Prince has ordered that no one is to be disrespectful to the Fourth Princess."

Feng Yuxi glared at the guards barring her way, her voice cold as she spat, "What do you think you are, daring to stop this Princess Believe me, I can have you killed..." Before she could finish, a sword was pressed against her throat. The cold eyes and warning tone left no room for doubt.

The Empress, please return.

"You..."

Feng Yu Xi was frightened by the masked guards before her. This Dugu City actually openly raised death servants, she must tell the emperor and arrest Dugu City, to see how Feng Ling Xi could still be so arrogant.

Feng Yu Xi Leng snorted coldly and left in anger.

"Your Majesty."

Dugu Cheng walked out from the shadows, watching Feng Yu Xi's retreating figure. He had heard everything she just said. This Feng Yu Xi was indeed bold. His woman was even being considered by Dugu Yan. Thinking about this, he felt a surge of anger, just like Xi'er had said, all the things Dugu Yan said about liking her were driven by the desire for Yao Clan's treasures. He didn't truly love Xi'er at all.

The more he thought about it, the angrier Dugu City became, and the coldness in his eyes grew increasingly frightening.

"Send someone to keep an eye on the situation in the palace. Report any news immediately."

Deadpool's exposure didn't worry Duke Gucheng. It was common practice for the Duke to raise assassins within his palace. Empress Feng Yuxi's rise to power, he knew exactly how it happened. Even if she told Dugu Yan, with Dugu Yan's current state, knowing wouldn't change anything. He wouldn't have the ability to do anything about it.

As for Xi'er's safety, he had to send someone to secretly protect her, keeping a close eye on her, lest something go wrong.

Feng Lingxi returned to her room, her mind filled with Yu Xi's words. Thinking about how Dugu Yan even called her name in his dreams made her feel sick. She hadn't expected him to still remember her. It seemed that Dugu Yan was still interested in her, she had to be careful. If he truly recovered, who knew if he would be like before, wanting her to serve him in the palace again

"What the Empress just said mustn't be told to Dugu City. If he knew, he would surely be angry."

Feng Lingxi warned Xiaoli, she was so angry she was half dead. If Duguo Cheng knew, he might go to Feng Yuxi for an explanation.

“Your Highness, I think it’s necessary to tell the King and let him properly discipline the Empress. She really thinks that becoming Empress allows her to treat the Princess Consort this way. She doesn't even remember how she pushed the Princess Consort off the cliff before Now she dares to ask for the Princess Consort's help”

Xiaoli said angrily, Feng Lingxi's instructions were completely different from what she had. Feng Lingxi frowned, "Xiaoli, I told you not to tell Dugucheng about the matter of Duguyan dreaming my name, and I didn't tell Feng Yuxi."

"This servant, of course, knows."

Wind Ling let out a breath and rubbed her temples, "Go get me something to eat."

Xiao Li walked to the door, looking at the lord who was walking in. She was about to report when Dugu Cheng stopped her and motioned for her to step back.

Feng Lingxi, hearing someone enter, said without raising her head, "Xiao Li, tell Dugu Cheng to come find me. I have something to tell him."

Dugu Cheng furrowed his brows, watching Xi'er rubbing her temples. His heart ached at her exhausted appearance. He walked over and stood behind her, placing his hand on her temple to give her a massage. Feng Lingxi simply let go, closing her eyes and enjoying it. Her mind was in a mess. What did Feng Yu Xi say today when she came here Should she tell Dugu Cheng about this She needed to investigate what Dugu Xiu was up to first.

After a while, Feng Lingxi opened her eyes, "Xiaoli, have some food."

Standing up, Feng Lingxi looked at the empty table, her brow furrowed. She blurted out, "Xiao Li... Dugu Cheng"

Seeing Dugu City sit down behind her, Feng Lingxi pointed at him and thought of the person who had just given her a massage, "Was it you who gave me a massage"

Dugu Cheng curled his lips into a smile, looking at her surprised expression, "You couldn't even feel the touch of this king"

"Why didn't you say anything when you came back"

This made her keep letting him massage her without knowing, luckily she hadn't wanted to speak just now. With this opportunity, Yu Xi vented all her complaints and grievances to him, and Dugu Cheng knew everything about it.

"I've just gotten back a while ago, and when I came in, I wanted to call out to you. But seeing your tired face, I couldn't bear to wake you."

"It was going really well, but then Feng Yu Xi came along and totally ruined it," Feng Ling Xi sighed, "She just dampened my spirits and now I feel completely drained." He was still fuming.

"What did she ask you to do Isn't it for you to enter the palace and detoxify Dugu Yan"

Dugu Cheng pretended not to know, windling X shaking his head, "No, she came to me, wanting my help, wanting to secure her position. After all, now the only one who can oppose Dugu Xiu is you."

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City without making a sound and explained, "Don't worry, I didn't agree to her."

Of course I knew you wouldn't agree to her, but Feng Yu Xi really said it out loud. How could she think of asking you to help her Didn't she forget that she pushed you off a thousand-meter cliff back then" He hadn't settled the score with her yet, and she was already showing her face and thinking about Xi'er helping her. It was truly shameless.

Feng Ling's lips curled into a smirk as she looked at Du Gu Cheng's calculating gaze. She agreed, "She probably forgot, but I haven't. This debt will be settled eventually."

Dugu Cheng grasped her hand, his eyes filled with heartache causing Feng Lingxi to avert her gaze. "Dugu Cheng, please don't look at me like that. I can handle my own affairs. When you do this, I feel like I am incapable."

"Xier, this king asks you, if one day Feng Aotian kneels before you and begs you to release Feng Yuxi, will you let her go"

He wasn't trying to pressure her, but he wanted Xi'er to know that Feng Aotien was very likely to kneel for Feng Yuxi. He felt sorry for Xi'er; they were both daughters, yet as a legitimate daughter, she was treated less importantly than those illegitimate daughters.
