s afraid they would do something to Xi'er.Since the Fourth Royal Consort has spoken, just wait for her news with peace of mind.Li Wuyan glanced at Dugu City, "Right now, we should investigate why Long..."This matter isn't difficult. I just hope that in the coming period, if Her Majesty brings up the matter of conferring a title with the Empress Dowager, she won't change her previous decision."

"Empress Dowager Cen was somewhat surprised, "Fourth Royal Highness, this old dowager doesn't understand. Why are you so absolute in your support for me and the Empress After all, if Feng Aotian is bestowed with a title, it would be an immense honor for you. Is your animosity towards the Empress because of how she pushed you off the cliff"

"Empress Dowager, my relationship with Feng Aotiān as father and daughter has long been severed. It was Empress Dowager who personally issued the decree. Besides, Feng Aotiān is not qualified to be granted a title. The words I spoke to the Queen were all for Empress Dowager's sake. I have always remembered that I am on Empress Dowager's side."

Feng Lingxi's words made the Empress dowager feel very comfortable. She knew her own place.

"The Empress agrees."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager."

Feng Lingxi bid farewell and thanked the emperor, then exchanged a few pleasantries before leaving the palace.

Today's events, Feng Lingxi knows deeply. She and Feng Yuxi have quarreled like this, it is likely that Feng Yuxi will soon find trouble with her. Just as she thought, the next morning, Feng Aotien came to her house. At first, his tone was still polite. When the topic turned to the bestowal of titles, Feng Aotien became angry.

"You wretch!"

Wind Ling Xi's brows furrowed, looking at Feng Ao Tian with eyes that wished to kill her. A mocking smile played on her exquisitely beautiful face.

"General Feng, how laughable! This Princess has long severed ties with you. General Feng, what qualifications do you have to be so disrespectful in front of this Princess As for the crime, does General Feng know what it means to insult a princess"

Feng Aotian was enraged by her scolding, a fire burning in his chest. He glared at Feng Lingxi with even greater anger.

"General Feng, the crime of disrespecting the princess is serious. General Feng, if you have nothing else to do, please return."

Xiao Li stood before the princess, coldly reminding her.

Feng Aotien, seeing Xiaoli's attitude, raised his hand and slapped her. Just as his hand was about to fall, Feng Lingxi grabbed it. Feng Aotien met Feng Lingxi's angry eyes and said provocatively, "Are you trying to hit me"

Feng Lingxi grabbed Feng Aotiantian's wrist, looking at his face, it was really disgusting, making her nauseous. In the world, how could there be such a father

To have a father like this, what a sin!

Feng Ling Xi grasped his wrist, Feng Ao Tian only felt a sharp pain at his wrist. Feng Ling Xi shook off his hand, her eyes flashing with a cold light, "Get lost."

"Wind soars, ah!"

Feng Aotien's face was pale, humiliated by Feng Lingxi's insult to "get lost." How could a general like him endure such treatment

"Don't let this Princess make you thrown out, by then, General Feng will truly lose face."

Feng Aotian's whole body trembled in the chilly weather, looking at Feng Lingxi's cold eyes, he roared, "Go into the palace and speak clearly to the Empress Dowager, the bestowal must be granted."

"What are you Do you have a say in matters of bestowment"

Feng Lingxi was furious, showing Wind Aotian no mercy whatsoever. "Let alone the fact that you don't have the qualifications to be bestowed with the title of General Zhen Guo, even if it were to be bestowed, it wouldn't fall to you, Wind Aotian! Now, get out of here immediately!"

Feng Lingxi roared, watching Feng Aotians palm strike towards her. Her body swiftly dodged, and she saw a figure arrive like the wind, striking Feng Aotians palm with one blow, sending him flying backward.

"Fengjiang, what are you doing"

Seeing the suddenly appearing Dugu City, Feng Aotian hurriedly bowed, "Subject pays respects to the Fourth Prince."

獨孤城 hurried to Feng Lingxi's side, anxiously checking her up and down. "Xier, are you hurt"

Feng Ling Xi shook her head and turned to look at Feng Aotiān, "General Feng, it's best if you go into the palace and speak to the Empress Dowager today."

"Ye Xi, see the guests off."

Dugu Cheng said coldly, "Inform the emperor of today's events and let him decide."

Feng Aotien's face changed drastically upon hearing that the matter was going to be made public. He hurriedly said, "Fourth Prince, this is all due to my momentary impulse. I beg the Fourth Prince not to make a fuss about it. I will apologize to the Fourth Princess immediately."

Feng Aotian said, and walked to Feng Lingxi's face, but was stopped by Feng Lingxi.

"General Feng should still explain today's matter to the Emperor. This princess can't bear it." After finishing her words, Feng Lingxi turned and left. Feng Aotien wanted to chase after her, but Du Gucheng stopped him. "Since General Feng dares to do it, he must dare to take responsibility. If it weren't for Xi'er coming from General Feng's mansion, this king would definitely not spare you." After finishing his words, he said to Ye Xi, "Send the guest off."

Feng Aotien wanted to say something more, but Ye Xi had someone escort Feng Aotien out.

Du Gu Cheng caught up with Feng Ling Xi's footsteps, watching the frown between her brows, he reached for her hand, his face full of worry, "Are you really alright"

"It's fine, I'm not some helpless damsel. What can he possibly do to me"

Feng Lingxi sighed, "I'm just thinking, Feng Aotien came here today and spoke like this, he must have murderous intent towards me. Coupled with what I said yesterday at Shouan Palace, Feng Yuxi wouldn't let me go either."

"Knowing the danger, he still pressed on."

Dugu Cheng's tone was full of helplessness. He had just learned about this, and Xi Er's actions were indeed quite adventurous.

"The Empress Dowager has doubts about me. Had I not acted yesterday, if Dugu Xiu remained in the capital, he would have caused us tremendous trouble. You know our relationship with Dugu Xiu; he would become a pawn used by Feng Yuxi against us here. Such a powerful pawn, are you not afraid I am."

Yesterday's actions were twofold: firstly, to get Dugu Xiu out of the capital; secondly, to prevent him from being used by Feng Yu Xi to oppose her and Dugu Cheng. Furthermore, the Empress Dowager had always been suspicious of her. By yesterday's efforts to ease the Empress Dowager's worries, she could perhaps gain a little more trust.

"Dugu Xiu's return was too sudden. This king only received the news just now. Feng Aotian saved Dugu Xiu but didn't tell the emperor. He knew that the Empress Dowager wouldn't bear to harm Dugu Xiu, so he acted this way."

“Therefore, I said as much yesterday. In that case, we only need to deal with Feng Aotian and Yu Xi.”

獨孤城知道風淩兮的擔憂，不過，“對付風雨夕我們不需要動手，有些人比我們更想除掉風雨夕。”

Dugu Cheng's words made Feng Lingxi's eyes light up, and she suddenly smiled.

“I almost forgot, in the palace now, I'm afraid no one wants to get rid of Feng Yuxi more than she does.” The only worry was whether Dugu Yan would protect Feng Yuxi. She is pregnant now, and it can be said that Dugu Yan loves her very much. Just afraid of indulging her, by then, the ones who will suffer will be them.

"Recently, the emperor's health has been failing. He looks quite unwell. The imperial physicians have examined him and seem to think there is something wrong."

"Dugu City frowned and said, 'This king has also asked the imperial physician, but there is no clear answer.'"

"Was it made by Feng Yu Xi"

"Who knows who did it, the schemes in this palace are far more complex than we imagine."sudden change in atmosphere. His gaze landed on the steward, who merely nodded politely when he met Dugu Cheng's eyes, without any reaction whatsoever.Dugu Cheng and Ye Xi walked to a slightly farther...
