ur Yao Clan's Saint Lord to marry you...""Chieftain, do you have any leads on my mother's whereabouts"Upon being asked this, Luo Li's smile instantly vanished from her face. She really didn't want to...Feng Lingxi continued to do her own thing, Wan'er followed Xiaoli, the two of them sneaking around, circling Feng Lingxi. Feng Lingxi accidentally looked up and scared them into hiding. Feng Lingxi frowned, although she was confused, she didn't say anything to them.
Although she didn't like her, it was enough that Wan’er and Xiao Li could play together peacefully. At least she could watch the girl and be content with that.
For the whole morning, Xiao Li and Wan'er tiptoed around like thieves, hiding and sneaking until Dugu City came in. Seeing Wan'er and Xiao Li together, he looked at Xi'er in astonishment and asked, "Xi'er, how did Wan'er end up here I thought Ye Xi had left."
"My Lord, the little mistress was clinging to me, so I brought her here. I have told Ye Xi about this." After entering, Ye Xi heard Xiao Li's words and was puzzled. When did she talk to him He always heard from the Yao Clan people that Wan'er followed Xiao Li.
Feng Lingxi frowned, "In that case, I have to be more careful next time. This time, following Xiaoli was fine, but if I follow someone else next time, it could be dangerous."
Xiao Li nodded apologetically, looking at Wan'er. She didn't say a word either.
"Wan'er, are you hungry Daddy wants to take you for a walk, okay"
Wan'er looked into Dugu City's expectant eyes and reached out to embrace his neck.
"Xi'er, would you like to go together"
"I still have some things to do, I'll go down the mountain tomorrow, so I can't play today."
Feng Lingxi looked at the ledger on the table. If she didn't finish it, she would procrastinate for a few days. This Yao clan here, if they investigated further and found out about Luo Li, things would be difficult. Once she sorted out the other matters, she could go down the mountain.
Then I'll take Wǎn'er out, and we'll have a meal together in a little while.
Feng Lingxi responded, "Xiaoli, you take them down and take good care of them."
"I obey your orders."
Within the Yao clan, if no one were to lead Dugu City and his party, they would still be considered people from the Yuan Dynasty. Although they were men of the Holy Master, they were ultimately involved with the imperial court. The clansmen held a degree of apprehension towards Dugu City.
Dugu Cheng didn't mind. He came here for two reasons: to see Xi'er and to see how the clan members lived here. Additionally, according to Xi'er's suggestion, he wanted to take a look, after all, a bystander can see more clearly.
Before Dugu City had even left, Yao Song entered.
"Lord."
What's the matter
Feng Lingxi looked up and met the gazes of several elders beside Yao Song, "Elders, do you have something to say to me"
"Lord, earlier we saw the Four Kings and Miss going together to the Yao clan forbidden zone. My subordinates stopped them, and Little Li was also there. About this matter, I specially came to ask Lord, what is your intention"
"I already know about this. It was my intention for the father and daughter to move freely among the Yao people, but they are not allowed to enter the restricted area. Just let them know, and they won't mind."
Yao Song hesitated for a moment, "Holy Lord, this forbidden zone was the place where the first Holy Lord fell off a cliff. At that time, you specifically instructed that no one else could go there besides you, so I came to ask."
Feng Lingxi nodded, "It's fine to not let them pass, it's a small matter, no need to mind."
Yao Song's words reached his lips but he swallowed them back down. How could he not mind such a big deal happening in this forbidden zone
"By the way, I will go down the mountain tomorrow. I leave the affairs of the Yao Clan to you. You can report once a month. I will send someone to investigate then. I will continue to live in Linxi County."
Feng Lingxi's words left Yao Song astonished, "Your Holiness, leaving the Yao Clan's affairs to us... Isn't that inappropriate"
"As long as we do our best for the Yao clan, what's wrong with that Besides, wasn't it always like this before"
Feng Lingxi looked at Yao Song, “Leave the clan matters to you. Take it seriously and handle things properly.”
"My Lord, upon hearing your words, I am filled with trepidation."
Yao Song broke out in a cold sweat, feeling as though the Holy Lord's words were subtly probing him.
This used to be something handled by the elders, and in the end they ended up plotting against the Lord. Now that the Lord knows this, he still lets them handle it. Is he not afraid that they will plot against him like before, or is he trying to use this opportunity to find out something
These days, since the Lord has returned, she has been investigating the incident of the previous Lord's fall. Although she found out that it was related to the chieftain and stopped there, she always felt that this matter would not be let go by the Lord.
“You should know that I am not only the Saint Lord of the Yao Clan but also the Fourth Princess Consort of the Great Yuan Dynasty. I have to deal with both the affairs of the Great Yuan Dynasty and the Yao Clan, naturally I am stretched thin. These days I have observed you carefully and know that you are all loyal people. Entrusting you with the management, I feel at ease.”
Feng Lingxi, when I said that, all the elders' faces changed.
They themselves don't even know if they will betray, where does Feng Ling Xi have the confidence to believe them.
Yao Song cupped his hands and bowed, “Master, Yao Song will definitely do his best and fulfill his duties to complete the mission for Master. He will definitely not disappoint Master’s kindness.”
Thank you, Elder Three.
Feng Lingxi smiled faintly, her eyes sweeping over the other elders. Seeing them hastily agree, the pretense and panic in their eyes were all captured by her.
This Yao clan, some people are reused, there are people jealous and discontent, the more outstanding Yao Song is, the easier it is for the other few to pick things up. If she can take this opportunity to discipline them all with Yao Song's hands, it wouldn't be in vain for her trip here.
Yao Song can be said to be truly loyal to Feng Ling Xi. Feng Ling Xi lets him handle things, and he takes them seriously and handles them efficiently, with balance and flexibility. He's quite moldable.
If the Yao clan had such a loyal confidant as him, her life would be much easier.
"Your Holiness, this is what my subordinates are supposed to do."
Feng Lingxi looked at the other elders, just as she had expected, their eyes towards Yao Song held a hint of hostility, though it was well concealed and not overtly displayed.
Dugu Cheng spent a day playing with Wan'er in the Yao Clan. The entire Yao Clan knew that the Holy Lord had a daughter, and there was an uproar of cheers throughout the clan. However, soon someone went to Feng Lingxi and suggested that she give birth to a boy as quickly as possible. Since ancient times, the Yao Clan had always been ruled by the Holy Lord's successor. If she could give birth to a boy, it would allow the Holy Son to inherit the throne, sparing the woman from bearing the burden of the Holy Lord's position.
I thought Feng Lingxi would reject this proposal, but I was surprised that she agreed readily.
Xiao Li looked at Wan'er's expression, her eyes obviously dimmed, that dejected expression made people feel distressed just by looking at it.
"The queen will definitely have another child, but when is unknown."
Xiao Li's words made Wan'er's expression even more pitiful. She looked at Feng Ling Xi from afar, her eyes wide and confused, as if wondering what to do.
"Don't you want the princess to give birth to a younger brother for you"
Wǎner looked at Xiǎolǐ, "Yes."
"What do you think"
Wan'er nodded, Xiaoli was full of surprise. She thought Wan'er would be jealous, but she actually wanted a younger brother. Could it be that the mother and daughter had quarreled again
Feng Lingxi finished explaining everything about the Yaozu clan and, before leaving, deliberately avoided Yao Song. Instead, she summoned several other elders and spoke to them in private. The content of their conversation remained unknown, but Yao Song never questioned anything. He respectfully bid farewell to Feng Lingxi as she departed.hard to earn. Why blindly serve such a tyrant Is it worth it""Loyalty to the king is what a general should do. Today, I won't hold your words against you, but if these words reach the emperor's ears,...
