Chapter 281: Seize the Throne 36

ead in disagreement, "I think this woman is very cunning and not easy to deal with. A woman who could rise to prominence in the imperial palace of the Yuan Dynasty, even with a war god as her protect...I can't remember.

Feng Lingxi mumbled, “I was rescued by the Crown Prince.”

Xiao Li, hearing this, glanced around but didn't see Huang Fu Qingyun. She hurriedly asked, "Has that young lady thought about recovering her memory"

I can't remember.

Xiao Li looked at the current state of the princess, it seemed that she was truly very hurt. Asking her probably wouldn't get her anything. It seemed like she could only secretly find a way to help the princess recover her memory. Only by recovering her memory would the princess know who to choose.

Then don't think about it, lest you get a headache.

Feng Lingxi hurriedly asked, "Xiao Li, did the Crown Prince say that you seem to know me Is that true"

"No, Your Highness, there's been a misunderstanding. I mistook the young lady for my former mistress."

"Your former master"

Wind Ling Xi curiously asked, "Who is she, and where is she now"

Xiao Li looked at the curiosity in the princess's eyes, her nose ached, and her eyes became moist, but she bit her lip tightly, refusing to let herself cry.

"I lost her."

Feng Lingxi took a handkerchief and wiped the tears from her eyes, "Don't cry, it makes me uncomfortable to see you cry."

Xiao Li hurriedly wiped away the tears from her eyes and, looking at the princess's eyes filled with sympathy, said, "Miss, it was my fault. I shouldn't have told you this."

Feng Ling reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes, "It's strange, looking at you cry, I actually feel very uncomfortable, Xiao Li, tell me about your previous master, okay"

Xiao Li's expression stiffened, looking at the curiosity in the Princess Consort's eyes, and thinking about telling the past. If the Crown Prince knew, wouldn't he know about her relationship with the Princess Consort

No, she can't expose her identity. The princess is safe here for now at least. She hasn't had time to notify the king, so nothing must happen.

"Miss, I'm afraid to tell you about the previous master. I'm worried that His Royal Highness the Prince will blame me."

Windling glanced outside, "No way, he asked me to come find you."

Xiao Li's heart was even more uneasy. This was the Queen coming to test her.

"Then the maidservant will tell the young lady."

Feng Ling quickly nodded and sat down on the stool, eagerly looking at Xiaoli.

"My former master was a princess. She was very beautiful, a stunning beauty. She loved alchemy, was brave and intelligent, and treated me very well."

When Xiaoli reached this point, her eyes welled up, looking at the princess who was staring at her. Tears streamed down her face. Feng Lingxi hurriedly reached out, and Xiaoli quickly wiped away her tears, "Miss, I'm sorry, I lost my composure."

"It's okay."

Xiaoli broke into a smile. "Thank you, Miss, for your understanding. My former master is just a thing of the past. Please don't mind it."

"You just said your former master was a princess and very fond of alchemy. Does she like medicine too"

Feng Lingxi grasped the key point. She also liked medicine, just like Xiao Li's previous master. No wonder she took a liking to Xiao Li at first glance. It turned out that she and her former master were both people who loved medicine.

"Yes, she particularly likes alchemy. She knows all sorts of medicines, and I have learned a lot about medicine from her."

"Then could you teach me"

Feng Lingxi grasped Xiao Li's hand, "I like medicine very much, but I don't know how to make it myself. I'm also afraid that if His Royal Highness finds out, he won't be happy."

Seeing the sadness in the Princess's eyes, Xiaoli felt a sour ache in her heart. It turned out that even the Princess had times when she was unhappy. The Crown Prince liked her, but he restricted the Princess's affections. Unlike the King, no matter what the Princess did, he never interfered.

Why wouldn't the Crown Prince allow Miss you to like medicine

Feng Ling hurriedly waved her hand, "He's not refusing, he just thinks I'm too unwell and is worried about me."

"The Crown Prince is so good to Miss."

Xiaoli thought about the King, who fell ill because of the Queen's condition. Her heart was very complicated. If she told the King about the Queen's situation here, how uncomfortable he must be.

"The Crown Prince has been very kind to me."

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli, her beautiful eyes drooping. "But I don't want to be his Crown Princess. I don't want to have children."

"Both the mistress and her handmaiden, like their previous master, disliked having children."

"Is that so Then could you tell me more about her"

Feng Lingxi hurriedly asked. Xiao Li glanced outside, seeing no one around, she then spoke about the story of the princess recovering and the king's actions. Seeing Feng Lingxi listening attentively, her eyes moistened. Perhaps after telling the princess, she would still remember the king.

Dugu City and Ye Xi drove a carriage carrying Feng Fu towards the Yao Clan's direction. Along the way, Dugu City was extremely quiet, with no smile ever appearing on his face. No matter how Ye Xi tried to strike up a conversation, Dugu City remained indifferent.

"My lady, how much longer until we reach the Yao Clan"

Along the way, he observed the road to the Yao clan. Not only was the terrain complex, but the entrance was also concealed. It seemed deserted, but people were hiding everywhere. If it weren't for Feng Fuzi leading the way, they wouldn't be able to find it at all.

"Unless there's an unexpected delay, we should arrive before nightfall."

Feng Fu Ren lifted the curtain, looking at Du Gu Cheng's cold and stern face. After a moment of thought, she opened her mouth.

"Before I left, I instructed the Yao clan members who were hiding in the capital to secretly search for Xi'er's whereabouts. They will notify me as soon as they have any news. Don't worry too much, as long as Xi'er is safe, we will definitely find her."

Dugu Cheng hummed in response and said nothing more.

Ye Xi looked at the king this way, she was very worried.

"My Lord, after we arrive at the Yao Clan, we'll have to change our address for you. I'll still call you Young Master, and Madam will need to adjust her way of addressing you as well."

"Young Master Chen, no one could have guessed your identity."

The Wind Lady spoke first. Dugu Cheng simply hummed in response and remained silent again.

"Master, you..."

Yexi wanted to speak up, but the Wind Lady stopped him, telling him not to disturb him.

The carriage continued forward. Dugu Cheng looked at the scenery on the road, quickly noting down those heading to the Yao clan. His sharp eyes observed the surroundings, and as they entered the Yao clan's territory, about ten people appeared along the way, each with formidable martial arts skills. Furthermore, lurking in the shadows, besides the six assigned by his wife, there were another six who seemed out of place.

"Cross this mountain range and you'll reach the Yao village. When that time comes, you'll go in with me."

"Master Chen, I will tell them that you are my savior and escorted me back safely," Feng Fu-ren said.

"As you wish, madam."

Dugu Cheng said in a low voice, as the carriage reached the entrance of Yaozu's valley. Passing through the valley, it was another world, just like a town, very large and prosperous. Surrounded by mountains on all sides, majestic peaks rose one after another.

Dugu City and Ye Xi helped Feng Fuzi out of the carriage. Looking at the crowd surrounding them, they were dressed in clothes that seemed to be from a foreign land. The old man at the front had white beard, leaning on a cane, his eyes bright and sharp.

"Elder Yao Qing of the Yaos welcomes His Holy Master back to the Yao clan, may the Holy Master be blessed ten thousand times."

Yao Qing, the eldest elder of the Yao people, was fully responsible for all matters of the Yao people after Fengfu left the Yao people. He held a very important position in the Yao people.e able to stay there any longer."Mo Huai Lan's voice was laced with a hint of coldness. Meeting Feng Yu Xi's hostile gaze, she coldly said, "Empress Dowager, this concubine feels it would be best to l...
