tion of Fourth Princess for her granddaughter. Well said, I'll tell my mother and have her enter the mansion. Then, I'll give up my position as Fourth Princess to her."Feng Ling Xi's words left Zhao M...Three days later, Feng Aotiān's troops arrived in Linxi County. Dugu City didn't welcome them personally but instead had Feng Lingxi appear in his stead.
When Feng Lingxi was in sight, Feng Aotiān's proud aura would falter. For some reason, whenever he saw Feng Lingxi, he always felt like she had him figured out.
Feng Lingxi did not see Feng Yu Xi, but Feng Yi Xuan and Feng Ao Tian changed into their previous clothes together. They no longer had the arrogant look of before, instead they had a few more gentle breaths. Whether it was because they hadn't recovered their memories or something else, it was unknown.
Feng Yi Xuan saw Feng Ling Xi, although her father and elder sister had told her many bad things about her, but seeing Feng Ling Xi, Feng Yi Xuan couldn't feel her fierceness. Instead, she felt a noble and generous aura emanating from her. Just standing there, she was awe-inspiring.
"As the General who Guards the Nation arrives, it's a shame we haven't welcomed him properly. Please, come in."
Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes swept across Feng Aotian left and right, but she didn't see Feng Yu Xi's figure. Her expression was puzzled. At that moment, she glanced at Feng Yi Xuan twice, but her reaction to his appearance wasn't surprising at all, which made Feng Aotian wonder.
Yi Xuan wasn't dead, Feng Lingxi wasn't surprised at all. Was it because he had hidden too well, or had she known all along that Yi Xuan was alive
"Isn't this Linxi County ruled by the Fourth Prince Or are you saying that General Wei doesn't deserve to be welcomed"
Feng Lingxi blushed. Her lips curled slightly, "I didn't expect the General to be so self-aware, knowing he wasn't worthy."
"You..."
Feng Aotien glared at her with cold eyes, his displeasure evident. Feng Lingxi ignored him.
"The General of the Nation has arrived, I presume he's staying at the station. This small county of Linxi can't accommodate a figure like you. We won't keep you." Feng Lingxi smiled slightly and told the guards behind her, "Escort the General of the Nation to the station and have someone take good care of him. Lest we be accused of failing to treat our honored guests well."
"Feng Ling Xi, what do you mean by this When did it become your turn to speak in Linxi County" Feng Ao Tian coldly rebuked. "This General has come here on a mission..."
“So what This is the territory of my Yao clan. As the Saint Lord of the Yao clan, it's not your turn to speak! You wouldn't even have a place to rest your feet in this Yao clan land if it weren't for Du Gu City's face.”
"Nonsense! When did the territory of the Yuan Dynasty become that of the Yao people"
Feng Ao's face turned pale with anger, but this time he hadn't brought any troops. He knew he couldn't win in a direct confrontation.
"Dowry, you don't understand. For Dugu City to remarry me, he offered fifty million military powers as a dowry, and all of Linxi County will be under the control of my Yao clan. You didn't know this"
“You……”
Feng Lingxi's smile widened at the corner of her lips, "It's not too late to know now, after all, it's still early. If you go back now, you can still reach the inn ahead. However, I want to remind you, this place is all mine, and the prices will be a bit higher."
"Feng Ling Xi…"
Feng Aotian took a deep breath, looking at her infuriating expression. He really didn't know how he could have such a daughter.
"Half a million soldiers belong to the imperial court, and this Linxi County is also part of the Yuan Dynasty. How could he, a prince, be allowed to dispose of them at will"
"The General Wind's words are something this King doesn't want to hear. Since the gifts have been given, now the court claims these troops as their own. When this King allowed the court to provide rations for the soldiers, did they ever say these soldiers belonged to the court"
The voice of Dugu City came over, walking to Feng Lingxi's side, looking at Feng Aotiān.
"Marshal Protector of the Nation, what this King says is correct, isn't it"
"The last general has met the Four Kings."
Feng Aotian, no matter how arrogant he was, would never forget the purpose of this trip. He was ordered to take command of the troops. As soon as he arrived in Linxi County, Feng Lingxi gave him a warning. If he didn't perform well, he might be kicked out of Linxi County later on.
"No need for formalities."
Dugu City looked at Feng Aotitian's side, Feng Yixuan, his eyes glanced and retracted.
Feng Yixuan, though he had not recovered his memory, understood something when he saw Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng. They knew his identity. This meant that Tian Xiaomi may have known all along that he was Feng Yixuan but chose not to tell him, keeping him by her side as her shop clerk.
Thinking of this, Feng Yixuan's mood became quite heavy. He felt that Tian Xiaomi and Feng Lingxi had teamed up to deceive him.
But he couldn't help but wonder if Tian Xiaomi was being used because she didn't know.
Various speculations troubled Feng Yixuan's mind.
"Lord Si Wangye, I have been ordered to come here. Would it be possible for me to enter your mansion and speak with you in detail"
Feng Aotian's tone was gentle and polite, his attitude towards Dugu Cheng completely different from before.
"General Zhen Guo, please, this King also has some words to have you deliver."
Feng Aotien and others entered the county town and went into the county government office.
Looking at the houses in the county government, compared to the palace, they were simply worlds apart. They were much smaller and lacked any extravagance. They were just like ordinary county government buildings, quite austere.
"Please sit, General."
After Feng Aotian took his seat, he asked to be served tea.
"Fourth Prince, have you always resided in this county government office and not built a separate palace"
"This county office is quite good. These soldiers don't even have enough food to eat, so where would they get the money to build a palace What's more, this is a border region, and it's already a blessing to just be able to afford food."
Every word from Dugu City revealed his poverty. Since he arrived here, the court had not given him a single copper coin. He managed to support 500,000 soldiers through the aid of others.
"The Fourth King said, 'It's all due to my lack of foresight.'"
"Five hundred thousand soldiers must require a considerable amount of wealth, right Thinking about it this way, the Fourth Prince is indeed extremely wealthy."
The wind and rain at dusk opened her mouth, it's just that she has changed her face now, disguised as a man.
"Who is this"
Dugu Cheng looked at the wind and rain dusk, this tone was... a little bit…
"Your Majesty, this is the inspector sent by the Emperor to accompany me on this inspection."
"Inspection"
Dugu Cheng glanced at Feng Yu Xi, "So thin and frail, how are you like a woman"
Feng Yu Xi heard this, and was so angry she wanted to scold him, but she held back.
"My lord, this is the emperor's arrangement. I have no choice."
"Since this is an inspection, let's sit down."
Feng Lingxi winked at Dugu City, "Don't neglect others."
As the evening wind and rain fell, Feng Yu Xi sat down. Looking at Feng Ling Xi, a fleeting glint of killing intent in her eyes didn't escape Feng Ling Xi's notice. This must be the person Tian Xiao Mi had mentioned. It seemed Feng Yu Xi had made up her mind.
Her hostility runs this deep, who else could it be besides Feng Yu Xi.
One really can't contain their excitement, which betrays them.
"My king, I am indeed poor, but fortunately my wife's family is wealthy and influential. I rely on them entirely. Last month, I could not afford to support these soldiers, so I gave her the military command and let her take care of it."
"Since you are married, you are a family. Whoever raises them is raising them. Marrying the prince of the Yuan Dynasty makes you a person of the Yuan Dynasty, and this military power belongs to the Yuan Dynasty."
Wind and Rain Xi's voice carried a hint of disdain. He seemed determined to hand over military power to Feng Lingxi, wanting to prevent them from reclaiming it. Quite the scheming mind he had.ut being humiliated like this by him made Feng Yu Xi want to kill Feng Ling Xi."The Emperor is right, I am indeed inferior to her in every way."Dugu Yan swept her with a cold gaze, "Remain in the Phoe...
