Chapter 946: Metamorphosis 20
It would be held on the eighth day of the next month, just half a month away. With no one to disturb her, Feng Lingxi lived comfortably. However, Dugucheng often wasn't at the Wangfu as he was busy wi...Feng Lingxi and Li Wuyan were chatting quite engrossedly. As they neared the Fourth Prince's Mansion, Feng Lingxi suddenly turned to Dugu Cheng and asked, "You said you had something to do, didn't you Why haven't you left yet"
Dugu Cheng looked at Li Wuyan, "Since the emperor has ordered this prince to protect Li Wuyan personally, he naturally cannot disobey."
Now that I think about it, he can openly live in the Yao Clan's main residence. In the evening, he can be with Xi'er together. He wants to see what Li Wuyan can do to pester Xi'er.
Feng Lingxi looked at Li Wuyan, "Why did you let him protect you so closely You're making it too obvious to attract the Empress Dowager's attention. If they find out that Dugu City hasn't lost his memory, it won't be good."
"That's precisely why I want to keep him by my side. They think the more Dugu Cheng despises you, the longer we should keep him. This way, Dugu Cheng's resentment towards us will grow, and he won't even be able to complain. That's forbidden, Dugu Xiu."
Du Gu Cheng felt stifled listening to Li Wu Yan's words.
It's Li Wu-Yan who made him hold his breath.
"Ayan, are you really going to give Dugu Xiu a love curse"
Luoli didn't understand why Li Wuyan had made such a decision without consulting him. If he had known, he definitely wouldn't have agreed.
If Dugu Xiu is fine, will Xi'er and Dugu Cheng be able to live well
"I just wanted to find a taste tester, and you haven't been poisoned by the CIA."
Luo Li opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word.
It's really heartless.
He actually used Dugu Xiu as a test subject for poison. This is the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty! He's really bold.
"A Flame, Dugu Xiu is the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. This wouldn't be very good, would it"
Feng Lingxi frowned, if she were discovered, it would be very troublesome.
"What's wrong He asked me to antidote him, how can I know if the antidote I concocted works unless I try a few times Besides, he's the only one poisoned by the love worm right now. And in my eyes, there is no difference between an emperor and a commoner."
Regardless of one's status, there are only two distinctions: patient and kind person.
"Then take it easy, don't go too hard."
Li Wuyan nodded and then remained silent.
"I want to see my mother."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, “Just have a chat, I’ll be back after I finish talking.”
"Alright."
Dugu Cheng looked at Luo Li, "You guys wait for us a while."
"Come in and have some tea. I'll give you half an hour."
Luoli glanced at Fengling Xi, knowing she cared deeply about Shutai. With a cheerful and generous gesture, she did a good deed, also to show Li Wuyan that he was actually human too.
Wind Ling Xi came to Shu Taifei's courtyard. She hadn't been here for a long time. Looking at every flower and grass here, just like in the past, her eyes couldn't help but moisten. Since she gave birth to Wan'er, she had become more sentimental and fragile.
"Mother."
Feng Lingxi saw Empress Shu from afar and quickly walked up to her. Hearing Feng Lingxi's call, Empress Shu stiffened, turned back in disbelief, and saw Feng Lingxi standing not far away. She happily got up and walked towards her.
"Xier."
"Mother."
Feng Ling rushed forward and hugged her, tears welling up in his eyes uncontrollably.
"Mother, Xi'er is here to see you."
"Silly child."
Shutai held Feng Lingxi close, gently patting her back. Her own eyes were also red with emotion.
It's been over a year, and I see Xi'er again. It's really good to see her.
Let Mother Concubine have a good look at Xier.
Shutai allowed the wind to disperse, then took her hand and examined her carefully. Seeing her rosy complexion, but much thinner with eyes full of distress, Shutai felt a pang of sympathy.
"How did you lose so much weight"
“Mother, Xier is keeping her figure, she’s not thin.” Feng Ling Xi wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. Instead, Mother had truly lost weight, and her complexion wasn't as good as before. It made Feng Ling Xi feel guilty because Mother actually looked much older.
"Mother, Xi'er is sorry to you. These past year, with you staying in the palace, it must have been unhappy."
When the palace was mentioned, the Imperial Noble Consort sighed.
"When I married your father, Your Majesty, I knew that my fate was to be confined within the palace walls. Later, your father kept me in the Prince's Manor, and life was relatively free. However, after his death, who could have controlled access to this deep palace"
"Where is Aunt Su"
Feng Lingxi looked around, unable to see Su Su's figure. Worry filled her eyes.
She went back. After I entered the palace, I let her leave. She's not someone who can stay here. Sending her back was to protect her, so she wouldn't be implicated.
"Mother, would you like to go with Xi'er"
Feng Lingxi dragged Shu Taifei, “You go to Linxi County, Xi'er is there, she can protect you.”
"This..."
The Consort Shu hesitated, "Mother concubine doesn't want to part with Cheng’er. Ever since he lost his memory, he has only had eyes for that woman, Huan Yue. Mother concubine sees him like this and feels both anger and resentment, yet there is nothing she can do about it."
After all, she gave birth to him.
She couldn't abandon him either. At this point, staying felt just as unbearable.
"Mother, actually he didn't lose his memory."
Feng Lingxi glanced at Dugu City in the distance, but still said, in such a deception of her mother, she really couldn't bear it.
And, we also have to send the Empress Dowager away. Tell her it’s alright. Once they reach Linxi County, they can do their things.
Shu Taifei's face was shocked, watching Dugu Cheng walk towards her. Before he could speak, Shu Taifei asked, "Is what Xi’er said true"
Du Gu Cheng nodded, and Shu Taifei raised her hand and slapped him. She could be heard crying as she accused him, "Do you know what you're doing You even deceived me"
"Mother."
Feng Lingxi dragged Shu Taifei and looked at the palm prints on Dugu Cheng's face, "Don't be angry first, let me explain to you." Feng Lingxi hurriedly told Shu Taifei everything that had happened. After listening, Shu Taifei did not forgive Dugu Cheng, but became even angrier.
Regardless of the reason, what you did is wrong. You hurt your mother's heart, and mine too. Even her precious grandson, she hasn't seen him yet. This is all his own doing.
There are some things that cannot be discussed with them.
Dugu City knelt before Shutai's presence, "My son knows his mistake. Mother concubine, you can beat and punish me as you please, I have no complaints."
"You..."
The Shujiafei raised her hand as if to strike him, but in the end she didn't. She simply held him, weeping even more sadly.
Feng Lingxi watched them, the mother and child, from the side. Her heart felt a pang of discomfort.
"Mother, even if he has made a hundred mistakes, now is not the time to blame him. He cannot be exposed right now. I hope Mother will understand."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "Get up first, tidy yourself up, and go be a bodyguard for Li Wuyan."
Dugu City looked at his mother, his eyes full of reluctance, but he still responded.
"Mother, there's something I need to tell you. After leaving Dugu City, I became pregnant and gave birth to a granddaughter. Her name is Wan'er."
When the Empress Dowager heard that she had a granddaughter, her eyes crinkled with joy as she pulled Feng Lingxi down to sit beside her.
“Your mother knows you’re pregnant, but she didn’t know if it was a grandson or granddaughter. Now that you’ve told your mother, she’s truly moved. Cheng’er treats you so well, and you’re still so good to your mother. Your mother really hasn’t raised you for nothing.”rush to the palace first and tell her about her forbidding her from leaving the city. However, she never expected Feng Lingxi to return to the General's Mansion instead. This left Empress Dowager Cen...
