to the current empress, isn't this General’s Mansion just a thing in her grasp This Wind and Rain is such a proud person, letting her own mother become a concubine while praising my mother as a madam...."You're lying, the scroll can't be burned."
Luo Li wasn't fooled by Feng Ling Xi's words, she stared coldly at her, "Where did you hide it"
"Hurried"
Feng Lingxi chuckled, "Luo Li, who told you that something that can't be burned can't be destroyed You probably don't know, if I want to destroy something that can't be burned, I can still use other methods to destroy it."
Luo Li looked at Feng Ling Xi, her veins visibly pulsing with suppressed anger.
"Your daughter looks just like you. I've cured her poison, and she'll soon be able to live a normal life like other children. If you don't want to keep her, then make a clean break. I believe that in the next life, she'll be grateful for what you did."
After questioning for a long time, Luoli still refused to admit to the sacrifice. She couldn't let Wan'er and Luoli be together anymore; she had to protect Wan'er in her own way, ensuring she was safe.
"Let's go, we won't get any answers anyway."
Feng Lingxi stood up, Luo Li called out to her, "Feng Lingxi, you won."
Feng Lingxi sneered, she won
"Did you win" Feng Lingxi stared at Lu Li, "You still care about your child, even a tiger doesn't eat its offspring. Your daughter, even though Feng Yu Xi isn't the woman you like, this child is simply a miniature version of you. I think you've seen that, haven't you"
Luo Li clenched his fists, mentioning the child and the wind, rain, and dusk. He felt a surge of blood welling up in his chest, uncontrollable, and sputtered out, coughing up blood. His face instantly turned as pale as paper, and Li Wu Yan hurriedly supported him.
"Luoli, don't get excited."
Feng Lingxi was genuinely surprised by Luo Li's reaction. How could Luo Li be worse off than Dugu City "What did Feng Yu Xi do to him"
Li Wuyan glared coldly at Feng Lingxi, "Don't mention that woman again."
Feng Lingxi stepped forward, grasping Luoli's hand to take his pulse, but Luoli pulled away. This action left Feng Lingxi puzzled. What kind of poison could drive Li Wuyan to such a state
"You can't antidote him"
Li Wuyan did not answer her. Feng Lingxi, in a low voice, said, “We make a deal. We cooperate. I help Luoli detoxify, and you tell me how the Yao clan's conspiracy works”
Luo Li wiped the blood from the corner of her lips and looked at Feng Ling Xi's confident expression, "Are you worthy"
"You…"
Wind Ling clutched her fists tightly, this Luo Li was truly infuriating. This concerned Wan'er's life, and he dared to ask if she was qualified
"Xi'er, let's go back first."
獨孤城拉著風淩兮,反正也不問得出什麼,再說下去也冇有意思了。
"Luo Li, don't ever look for my daughter again. Take your people back. If you want to forcefully take my daughter, I don't mind, let us all perish together." Feng Ling Xi coldly warned, pulling Gu Cheng away.
"Pff…"
Luo Li coughed up blood, Li Wu Yan immediately pressed his acupoints to stop the bleeding. Luo Li sat cross-legged and adjusted his breath for a while before calming down.
"Didn't you and Feng Ling Xi agree to make things clear Why are you silent again"
Li Wuyan worriedly looked at Luo Li, he was in such a state, he really would lose his life.
"Du Gucheng's illness hasn't recovered yet. I can only say that, if he recovers and regains his military power, otherwise, how could we allow them to grow stronger."
But you shouldn't joke about your life. If you keep coughing up blood like this, you really will be gone for good.
Li Wu-yan's eyes were full of worry. He believed in his medical skills, but faced Luoli's illness, he was helpless.
"I'm fine."
Luo Li took a deep breath, raised her eyes to meet Li Wu Yan's worried gaze, and comforted him, "A Yan, I'm fine, don't worry."
"How can I not worry when you do this to yourself Why don't you just speak your mind"
Luo Li remained silent. All he hoped was for Feng Ling Xi to grow up quickly, to possess enough strength and the support of the Yao tribe to resist. Otherwise, everything they had done would be in vain.
Let's go back.
Li Wuyan supported him out and hid in the shadows. Dugu City and Feng Lingxi came out from another door, watching Luo Li's departing figure, "Although this is a bit inappropriate, I still feel like I heard the key point."
Feng Lingxi muttered, how many things did Luo Li hide from Du Gucheng, their partner
"Dugu City, hasn't Luoli told you about these things"
Dugu Cheng shook his head. "When I was with him, he would never say these things. Moreover, when it comes to important matters concerning the Yao Clan, Luo Li rarely speaks."
Feng Ling let out a light sigh, "Is it so difficult to be straightforward You make it sound like I don't have the capability or the means to stand against the Yao Clan." It seemed she still had to find Xiaochao.
"I'm going back home. I'll go find Xiaochao, she'd know best."
獨孤城 followed Feng Lingxi's footsteps and walked out of the tavern, but he found someone following them. When he turned back, he didn't see anything.
"Xier, we're being followed."
“If no one was following us, that would be strange. Go back.”
At this juncture, it's strange that no one is tailing them. The fact that they are being followed under Luo Li's very nose suggests it's not someone from the Yao clan. Currently, besides the Yao clan, only people from the palace could be involved. It seems the news of Dugu City and her shopping trip will soon reach the Empress Dowager's ears.
"Looks like I'm going back to the palace again."
Dugu Cheng wasn't stupid; he knew these people weren't from Luo Li. He had just finished talking with Luo Li, and he wouldn't send someone to follow them out of boredom. However, the Empress Dowager's recent dissatisfaction with them made Dugu Cheng frown.
"Xi'er, no matter how the Empress Dowager looks for you, don't go to the palace."
Feng Lingxi nodded. She wasn't idle and had nothing better to do than go to the Empress Dowager for no reason.
Back at the residence, Dugu City and Feng Lingxi parted ways. As Dugu City had said, the Empress Dowager summoned him back to the palace, while Feng Lingxi went to look for Xiaochao.
After getting acquainted with the situation in the mansion with the housekeeper, Xiaochao was about to find Feng Lingxi when she saw her return. She ran forward, "Miss, you went out"
Looking at the fresh and lively Xiaocao, this is indeed befitting her. She's both playful and mischievous, a complete contrast to just moments ago.
"Just came back from seeing Luo Li, have you picked out your clothes yet"
"It's all settled. The steward has arranged for me to stay in Miss's courtyard. There are several rooms there, and I've chosen one that can ensure Miss's safety."
Little Grass followed Windling, "Miss, what did the Chieftain want to see you about Did he say anything about the Lady"
He didn't say, and he didn't admit that Wan'er was a sacrifice.
Feng Lingxi sat down, and Xiao Cao hurriedly followed suit, her eyes anxious. "Of course he wouldn't admit it," she said. "But Miss, do you believe what I say or what the Clan Chief says"
"I only went to ask him. It was he who sent me to the Yao Clan to find my mother in the first place. From then on, I fell into Luoli's trap and was plotted against by him. Now that I've found him, I just want a clear answer."
But the result, Miss Xiaochao was not satisfied either. Xiaochao's words were exactly what Feng Lingxi had thought. She was indeed dissatisfied with Luoli's words, but she was quite satisfied with what she overheard.
"Little Grass, didn't you have something else to say Let's continue."e."Li Wuyan soothed, "Let's go inside and sit."Wind Ling glanced nervously outside before instructing Xiao Li, "Tell Ying Ba and the others to keep investigating and see what's going on."Li Wuyan and...
