Chapter 856 Falling Frost Flower 46

    

a talisman, symbolizing the sun and fire. It meant good fortune and eternity. These people in black all have this tattoo. If I'm not mistaken, this should be an organization related to fire.”An organ..."Your mouth is certainly sweet." Feng Lingxi glared, watching Dugu Cheng take her hand and get into the carriage. The wind blowing in was warm, making it easy to imagine how long and difficult Dugu Cheng's wait had been.

"I have something to tell you."

Feng Lingxi thought about it and decided to tell Dugu Cheng about Feng Yu Xi's pregnancy after all. After all, this matter was rather complicated. Feng Yu Xi was pregnant, and her due date was only a month apart from Mo Huilan's. Previously, because Mo Huilan was pregnant, her status in the palace had risen sharply. Now that Feng Yu Xi was also pregnant, and already three months along, it was feared that the harem would be in turmoil again.

Upon hearing this, Dugu City frowned.

"Her pregnancy is not a good thing. If the Empress has no children, she wouldn't be able to stand firm in the palace."

"Do you truly believe that you can hold the position of Queen"

Feng Lingxi glanced at Dugu City, and said softly, "Don't forget what I told you before."

Dugu City frowned slightly, looking at Feng Lingxi's puzzled eyes. He held her hand and said, "Her pregnancy is her own business, we shouldn't interfere. I'll only worry when you're pregnant."

Feng Lingxi smiled, "It will probably take some time."

"This King will do his best."

Du Gucheng said earnestly, looking at Feng Lingxi's eyes, a hint of melancholy. After listening to Xiao Li say that Xi'er was injured and needed proper conditioning to conceive, Du Gucheng became even more tolerant of Feng Lingxi.

He knew Xier also wanted a child, but for now, she couldn't get pregnant.

Feng Lingxi changed the subject, "What brings King Su to the palace"

When it came to the King of Su, a frown replaced the smile on Dugu City's face, and his solemn expression made Feng Lingxi realize something was wrong.

"What happened"

"The Emperor wants to reuse King Su, but you know his current situation. So-called reuse is a humiliation for King Su. What I didn't expect was that King Su agreed."

"Agreed"

Feng Lingxi was also a little surprised, but she quickly understood.

Before, Dugu Su allowed her to ask if she could cure Luoshang Hua. Moreover, she also suspected that Dugu Su was able to stand up. His martial arts were unfathomable, or perhaps he could suppress Luoshang Hua.

"This is where this king is puzzled. This king asked him, does Xi'er know what he said to this king"

Feng Lingxi shook her head, but the struggle in Dugu City's eyes showed that they must have had a disagreement.

"He said he wanted revenge, to avenge Li Guanjia. He said that even if he was sitting in a wheelchair, he would take revenge for Li Guanjia. The Emperor gave him the position of Dali Temple official, the purpose of which, this prince truly does not understand."

"Was the position of Dali Temple Minister given to the Prince of Su"

Feng Lingxi frowned, seeing Dugu City nod. Feng Lingxi felt more and more that this King Su was problematic.

"It seems like there's going to be another bloody storm."

Du Gu Cheng hugged Feng Ling Xi's shoulder, looking at the worry on her face, he tightened his hold and said, "Xi'er, this king doesn't want to get involved in this muddy water, it's best to just watch from the sidelines."

"I don't want to get involved, but if they threaten us, let them fight among themselves."

Dugu Cheng responded with a smile, gently stroking her head. Looking into Feng Ling Xi's eyes, his gaze was filled with tenderness.

Since being apart, Xi'er's mood has improved quite a bit, not as suppressed as before. "Xi'er, if you want to go back to the General's Mansion to live in the future, just go back and stay for a few days."

Feng Ling Xi raised her eyes to look at him, "Why"

Dugu City looked at the confusion in her eyes, and gently touched her head lovingly, "This King wants to see you happy."

Feng Lingxi's body visibly trembled. Was it so simple to make her happy

"I'm also very happy at the Fourth Prince's Mansion."

Dugu Cheng nodded, watching Xi'er's nervousness in her eyes. A smile still lingered on his lips, doting and gentle as he explained, "But you have your grandfather and Yu Mo accompanying you at the General's Mansion. Your happiness there is different from that in the Fourth Prince's Residence."

Feng Lingxi's eyes darkened. "Maybe it's because I don't have family to accompany me that I feel this way."

"My lord knows."

Feng Lingxi leaned against Du Gucheng's embrace, closed her eyes, and said in a weary voice, "I want to sleep for a while."

Dugu City hummed softly, allowing her to lean against his chest, watching as she quickly fell asleep. His eyes grew even more tender.

Feng Lingxi's return to the Si Wangfu spread quickly. They didn't get the reunion they hoped for, and the gambling den almost shut down. The whole city was buzzing about Feng Lingxi returning to the General's Mansion. As for Feng Lingxi herself, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.

The wager had been a windfall, with Tianxiang Building secretly pocketing a significant sum. Combined with the 100,000 taels wagered by Dugu City, their earnings were substantial.

While Feng Lingxi was happy, things were not so good in the palace. Because Feng Lingxi had told Empress Cen about Xi Wu's pregnancy, the palace was now in turmoil.

Mo Huilan almost fainted when she heard the news that Feng Yu Xi was pregnant for three months. She barely managed to make it to Fenghui Hall to question her. She had finally become the most favored woman in the harem after getting pregnant, but she never expected Feng Yu Xi to also be pregnant. She silently endured the first three months without making a sound. Now, everyone in the harem is saying that she was too high-strung and proud of her pregnancy, unlike Feng Yu Xi who was so low-key. They praised Feng Yu Xi for being a true mother of a country, embodying the grace of Empress Dowager.

Because Feng Yu Xi had not reported her pregnancy, she was scolded by Empress Cen. However, Empress Cen's rewards soon made Feng Yi Dian (the palace where Feng Yu Xi lived) exceptionally prosperous. It wasn't just Empress Cen's rewards; Dugu Yan also bestowed many things.

Since Feng Yu Xi entered the palace, she had never received such treatment.

When the courtiers learned that Feng Yu Xi was pregnant, they turned against each other, vying for favor. After all, the child in her womb would be the future crown prince, and naturally everyone wanted to curry favor with her.

The news of Feng Yu Xi's pregnancy quickly spread throughout the land, overshadowing the rumors of Feng Ling Xi and Du Gu Cheng's separation. In fact, it brought a much-needed peace to their lives.

It was a fine sunny day. Feng Ling Xi accompanied Shu Taifei for tea in the garden early that morning. Since Feng Ling Xi's return, Shu Taifei had treated her as usual and hadn't mentioned her pregnancy. The two of them got along even better than before.

"Shutai, Princess Consort, and Pingnan Wangfei request an audience."

Hearing that the Princess Consort of Pingnan was coming, Feng Lingxi's smile stiffened slightly. She turned to Shu Taifei and said, "Imperial Mother, it's probably because of the Princess Consort of Pingnan's poison."

"Xier, haven't you found a way to detoxify yet"

The Shun Taifei asked the Pingnan Princess to come in. Before she arrived, the Shun Taifei inquired about the antidote for Luoshuanghua's illness with concern.

"Wind Ling shook her head. 'Not yet, I haven't had much time lately.' "

"This poison is quite rare, if it truly has no antidote, then after being poisoned, I'm afraid there's nothing left to do but wait for death."

Shu Taifei let out a soft sigh, and then saw Xiao Simu accompany Pingnan Wangfei in. Seeing Feng Lingxi was also there, Xiao Simu politely greeted everyone.

"Fourth Princess, may I have a word with you in private"just the beginning.獨孤城 looked at Feng Lingxi, his eyes full of worry."Xier, this king thinks that we should find a time to take you and Empress Dowager back to Linxi County. I'm afraid this capital ci...
