lady herself."Huangfu Qingyun glanced inside the room, "May I go see her"Zhang Taiyi responded, and Huangfu Qingyun went inside. Seeing Feng Lingxi lying on the bed with a pale face, the imperial phy...獨孤城點點頭，“你也不要想太多，既然你們到了這裡，本王就會保護好你們。”
Li Nian felt much more relieved upon hearing this.
"To be honest, your brother-in-law is really good. He's much better than your sister. She just yells at me and never says a kind word."
Lu Nian spoke of Feng Lingxi, his voice full of helplessness. Their father had made a mistake, and as older brothers, they were suffering the consequences too. They wanted to have a better relationship with their sister, but they couldn't. They had to cater to her every whim and dare not treat her poorly for fear of being scolded.
獨孤城眼中滿是疼惜，“兮兒也是冇辦法的，其實本王知道她心裡還是很想有哥哥和家人，隻是嶽母讓她不準和她們相認，她不能違背嶽母的意思，畢竟她是嶽母一手帶大的。”
Lu Nian nodded, "I know, I don't blame her, it's just that she seems tense and tired."
"How could one not be tired."
獨孤城嘆了口氣，“本王也希望她能放開一些，隻是她好像習慣了這樣的生活，改不過來，本王倒是希望你們能讓她過得輕鬆點，有什麽事，本王能替她扛著。” 獨孤城 sighed, "I also hope she can let go a little, but it seems like she's used to this kind of life and can't change. I just hope you guys can make her life easier. If there's anything, I can take it for her."
"We know what to do, thanks, brother-in-law."
Lu Nian heard Dugu City's words and knew that the message he gave them was true happiness. He reached out to pat Dugu City on the shoulder and smiled brightly.
Xier is their Lu family's treasure, how could they let her live a hard life As long as she accepts the identity of Miss Lu, not to mention just a small Yuan Dynasty, if she wants this world, the Lu family can get it for her.
"Big brother."
Lu Xuan rushed in, panting heavily. Seeing Dugu Cheng was also there, he greeted him hurriedly, "Brother-in-law is here too! I just got the latest news. It's said that the imperial court has sent people to Linxi County. They're almost here and they claim to be investigating our relationship with the Chen Wangfu."
"This matter, this king knows, the visitor also knows, it is just Xier's foster father Feng Aotian."
"It's Feng Aotian."
Lu Nian looked at Dugu City, "Brother-in-law, do we need to help This person seems to be the General of the Nation now."
"It's alright, he's treating Xier well now. This time, I can handle it. Just stay here and wait for news. You don't need to do anything."
Lu Nian nodded, "Okay, if you have any news, just have someone tell us, and we'll be there right away."
Du Gucheng replied with a nod, bowing towards them with clasped fists. "This king shall return first then."
"Brother-in-law, walk slowly."
Looking at Dugu Cheng walk away, Lu Xuan finally asked, "Big Brother, you really don't need help This Feng Aotiān is Xi'er's adoptive father. I've inquired about him, and he doesn't like Xi'er very much. Back when they were in the General's Mansion, he treated Xi'er poorly and never considered her his daughter. Should we take this opportunity to give him a lesson and vent for our sister"
"If you're really like that, I'm afraid Xi'er wouldn't want us to stay here."
Lu Nian told Lu Xuan, "Don't meddle, just wait for news patiently."
"Good."
Although Lu Xuan was very dissatisfied, he still listened to Lu Nian's words. As long as Feng Lingxi wasn't harmed, he didn't care. After all, his parents had said that they only had one sister, and they had to protect her well. If something happened to their sister, they would all be finished.
Dugu Cheng made a first-class incense and went to the station. Calculating the time, Feng Aotiantian would be here soon. This time, he didn't intend to wait for Feng Aotiantian to find him.
Wind Ling Xi returned to the palace, but Dugu City hadn't come back yet. Thinking of what Luo Li had said to her, she felt a growing unease in her heart.
"Xiao Li, when the prince returns, ask him to find me."
Feng Lingxi instructed him, then went to see Wan'er.
"Wanna, was it fun"
Feng Lingxi had just walked to the entrance of the courtyard when she heard Lu Hao's voice coming from inside. Her footsteps stopped, and she hid aside, watching Lu Hao playing happily with Wan'er in the courtyard. How could he be at the prince's mansion
When she first came in, she didn't see anyone and told Lu Hao that he had arrived.
"Wan'er, when will your mother be back"
Lu's Madam's voice followed, Feng Lingxi glanced over. Lu's Madam crouched down and looked at Wan'er, "If your mother came back, you mustn't tell her we were here, or she would be angry."
Originally, they really came in with her back. They wanted to play with Wan'er so much, Mother only told her not to recognize them, she should have said nothing about them not being allowed to come, wouldn't she be too cruel to them this way
Feng Lingxi watched from the shadows, Wan'er's smile on her face was genuine. She truly liked Lu Hao and his wife.
"Grandpa Lu, Grandma Lu, my mother won't know you're here. She doesn't come to play with me much, so you can rest assured."
Wan'er got up and clung to Lu Hao.
"Grandfather Lu, are you teaching me light work Wan'er wants to learn."
"Very good, very good. Grandfather will teach you again."
Lu Hao couldn't stop smiling. They could secretly play with Wan'er here, but they were afraid Feng Lingxi would find out and get angry.
Feng Lingxi just stared at them. Lu Hao taught Wan'er martial arts, and Wan'er was very happy. Even at a young age, she practiced for half an hour without complaining about being tired. On the contrary, her legs were numb from standing. If it wasn't for the sound of the steward behind her, she wouldn't have realized she had been standing for so long.
The steward followed the direction indicated by the princess and saw that both Lu Hao and Madam Lu were present. Just as he was about to speak, Feng Lingxi stopped him with a gesture of silence. She turned and walked to a short distance away before asking.
"What do you want"
The steward hurried forward and said, “Your Highness, the Master sent word that he will not be back for dinner tonight. Please do not wait for him.”
Since Dugu City had something to attend to, she didn't want to keep pestering him with questions.
"Your Highness, this Master Lu and Mistress Lu..."
"Let them come in when they arrive. Just watch them and don't disturb them."
Feng Lingxi finished speaking, turned and left. She spent little time with Wan'er, so Lu Hao and Madam Lu would just have to take their daughter away. Let them stay here with Wan'er; she would pretend not to know anything about it.
The steward followed Feng Lingxi's footsteps, "Your Highness, should we have the evening meal served here for the county princess, or send it to her"
They didn't go themselves, just sent her over. Let Xiaomi handle it, she knows what to do.
The steward responded, and Feng Lingxi returned to her own courtyard. She glanced at the sky and hesitated for a moment before writing a letter to Huangfu Qingyun, inquiring about the situation in Aoxia Dynasty. Although he had hurt Wan'er last time, Aoxia Dynasty had helped her and Dugucheng on several occasions. She wanted to check on their situation and see if she could offer any assistance.
Feng Lingxi wrote the letter, and after thinking for a while, she added to it: "If you need any help, please don't hesitate to ask."
Wind Ling told someone to send the letter out. As dusk approached, she tidied up and went to the apothecary.
When it was dark, Dugu Cheng came back, and Feng Aotien came back with him. They returned by carriage.
Feng Lingxi was very surprised to see Feng Aotian returning with him. Only then did she realize that Dugu City had gone to meet Feng Aotian.d the body. Looking at his skillful technique, Feng Lingxi felt much more at ease. This coroner should be able to determine the cause of death.After all, this isn't that difficult. With some experienc...
