w, I believe that soon, the King will take a concubine into the palace."Feng Ling Xi remained silent as ever. If Du Gu Cheng was truly like that, then she didn't have much to say.When Dugu Cheng woke...The sixth prince glanced at it, raised an eyebrow and asked, “Purple crystal It’s quite pretty. Are you trying to give this as a gift to this prince”
Feng Lingxi stared at the seriousness in his eyes, it didn't seem like he was joking. Could it be that he really didn't recognize this Zi Xing
"This is not an ordinary amethyst, but the Yao clan's sacred object, Zi Xing."
"The sacred object of the Yao people"
Feng Lingxi nodded, looking at the Sixth Prince's furrowed brow. Could it be that he truly didn't know of the Yao clan's existence
"Are you Feng Lingxi, the Fourth Princess of the Great Yuan Dynasty"
The sixth prince smiled and invited Feng Lingxi to take a seat.
"Since you're here, sit down and chat."
Feng Lingxi was certain that this Sixth Prince knew about Zi Xing. Since he knew her identity, how could he not know about the Yao clan Her guess was correct, the Yao clan and the Ghost Saint Kingdom were in cahoots.
"Sixth Prince, could you enlighten me"
"Here, have some tea."
The Sixth Prince finished his instructions and then said to Feng Lingxi, “Four Princess Consort’s visit to the Sixth Prince’s Mansion tonight is nothing more than wanting to inquire about the Yao Clan’s location from this prince. However, I'm sorry to tell you, I don't know where it is, Four Princess Consort, I'm afraid you have come in vain.”
"Since you know the Yao Clan exists, how could you not know where this place is"
The Sixth Prince stood up, his expression solemn. "It's true that I don't know. The Ghost Saint Nation and the Yao Clan complement each other, not interfering with each other. The Yao Clan and the Ghost Saint Nation have a meeting time every year, but it's not with us. We princes only heard Father mention it, we wouldn't meet the envoys of the Yao Clan."
"Is that it"
Feng Lingxi couldn't believe it, the Yaozu here were actually going to coexist peacefully with the Ghost Saint Nation like this
"That said, I wouldn't have any reason to lie to you."
The Sixth Prince looked at Feng Lingxi, "If you don't believe me, I can't help it."
Feng Lingxi looked into the eyes of the Sixth Prince, seeing sincerity there that didn't seem to be hiding anything.
"Can you at least give me a little information"
"Wait."
The sixth prince looked at Feng Lingxi, "Since you've come, just wait with peace of mind. In a month, the emperor will meet with the chief, and you will have your chance."
"The ninth day of the next month"
Feng Lingxi calculated the time and, seeing the sixth prince nod, couldn't help but frown. Did she still have to wait for another month
Have we been here this long, and there's still no way out
"This is your only way out."
The Sixth Prince looked at Feng Lingxi, "I've told you everything I know. Don't make things difficult for my other brothers, the Fourth Princess. They are so scared of you they don't even dare to leave the house."
Feng Ling felt awkward and smiled sheepishly. She didn't want to visit them every day; she wouldn't have come here if it weren't for needing a way up the mountain.
"Thank you for informing me, Sixth Prince."
The Sixth Prince nodded, "I have no choice. Otherwise, if Father found out, I would be punished."
Feng Lingxi and Xiaoli glanced at each other and bowed in thanks.
"Then we should head back now."
Leaving the Sixth Prince's Mansion, she didn't encounter any danger along the way. This Sixth Prince was actually quite alright; he wasn't as difficult as she had imagined. He told her everything he knew, so the trip wasn't a complete waste.
"Your Majesty, are we really waiting until the ninth day of next month"
It's been almost a month and a half now. Waiting like this, back and forth, will take half a year.
"There's nothing we can do but wait."
Having traveled such a long distance to the Ghost Saint's Kingdom, it was impossible for her to return without seeing Wan'er. What were the Yao Clan's intentions They would eventually reveal themselves. She didn't believe they would stay hidden forever, and she couldn't wait for them to come down the mountain, couldn't wait for the chance to see Wan'er.
Back at the inn, it was dark. Dugu City saw her return and rushed forward. Seeing that she was unharmed, he finally felt relieved.
"Why didn't you say anything before leaving"
Being unable to see her again, Dugu City felt worried.
"I went to the Sixth Prince's Mansion and had some gains."
Feng Lingxi changed her clothes. "Next month, on the ninth day of the lunar calendar, we will attend the Luoli meeting to see the Emperor of the Ghost Saint Nation. This is something the Yao clan and the Ghost Saint Nation do every year. The sixth prince said they don't know where the Yao clan is located."
"Do you believe what he said"
Dugu Cheng frowned, wouldn't a prince of this country even know this
Feng Lingxi poured herself a glass of water and took a sip, looking at Dugu City, "You don't say it, the princes of this Ghost Saint Kingdom are really happy. There are so many concubines in the backyard that they don't want to favor them. The guards in the prince's mansion are only two, simply comfortable beyond comfort."
Being princes, look at Dugu City's life and then at this Sixth Prince. It's truly enviable.
Dugu Cheng glanced at Xi'er, his handsome brows slightly furrowed.
"Without the struggle for imperial power, life is naturally comfortable."
"Envy, even a little bit of jealousy."
If Dugu City were also like this, being a prince, she would be able to spend her time competing with the other princes' consorts when she had nothing else to do. That way, she could have a comfortable life.
"Even I am envious."
獨孤城 looked at Feng Lingxi, “It’s a pity, this king doesn’t have that fortune.”
Shangguan Huan knocked on the door, interrupting the conversation between the two.
"My lord, my lady."
After receiving consent, Shangguan Huan walked in, a trace of fatigue and the scent of dew lingering on his handsome face.
"I just heard that the Elder of the Yao clan has come down the mountain."
"Did the elder go down the mountain"
Feng Lingxi looked at Shangguan Huan, "Where did you hear about this Are you sure"
"It's the Third Elder, confirmed, he will be at the market tomorrow, the specific time is yet to be determined."
Shangguan Huan's words left Feng Ling Xi puzzled, "How did you know"
Shangguan Huan raised his eyes to look at Feng Lingxi, hesitated for a moment, lowered his head, and did not answer.
"Xier, let's take a look tomorrow. If they really come, we can also ask when they want us to go up the mountain."
“This time, he went down the mountain to discuss Wan'er with the Queen.”
Shangguan Huan's words made Feng Lingxi even more puzzled about where he got the news. However, Shangguan Huan didn't seem willing to reveal it. The doubts that reached Feng Lingxi's lips were swallowed back down. Tomorrow when she sees Elder San, perhaps she'll get the answers she wants.
As Shangguan Huan said, at noon the next day, Feng Lingxi met the three elders of Guisheng Kingdom. The white-haired and bearded elder looked Feng Lingxi up and down, his eyes filled with undisguised disdain.
She's really just like Wan'er, no wonder she gave birth to such a clever girl.
Feng Lingxi saw the disdain in his eyes, her brows furrowed. She hadn't done anything, what was there to be disdainful about
With a steady gaze, Feng Lingxi was not at all inferior to the three elders.
This line, the three elders led by two disciples, while Feng Lingxi was sitting next to Dugu City and Shangguan Huan, but Shangguan Huan wore a mask, unwilling to expose his face. Feng Lingxi did not ask too much, after all, everyone has their own secrets.
"Three elders went down the mountain, but they relayed the chieftain's words to me, asking me to go up the mountain"
Feng Ling opened her mouth, this person was indeed patient. She didn't ask, and he didn't speak a word.
"Really, is Wan'er truly yours"
Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng were both taken aback, wondering why the three elders would ask such a question
Could it be that Wǎn'er and she don't look alike
Even if she wasn't exactly like him, there had to be some resemblance between her and Dugu City, right"Good-bye."Dugu Cheng dropped a sentence and turned back to his residence.Feng Yu stood with clenched fists, staring into the twilight. This damned Dugu City was impossible to bribe."Return to the pal...
