atened by the Empress and had no choice but to obey"Your Majesty, she is your sister-in-law."Feng Lingxi whispered, "If the Fourth Prince hears this, he'll definitely be angry.""This world belongs to..."To win, many soldiers' lives would be lost. This is not what I desire."

Xiaoli looked at the Princess, "Princess, there are no immortal people on the battlefield, if they don't die, we have to."

Feng Lingxi looked at the soldiers guarding the valley, her eyes filled with pity. "What I mean is, I don't want our soldiers to sacrifice their lives. If we can minimize casualties and still get Gallo Kingdom to withdraw their troops, why not"

"My Queen, it's not that easy."

Feng Lingxi smiled, "Without provisions, they will have to retreat. Can three hundred thousand troops possibly live without eating or drinking"

"The queen wants to raid their supplies"

Xiaoli understood, seeing the princess smile, she quickly said, “Princess, if you wish to go yourself, this servant will be the first to follow you, no matter life or death, this servant must face it with you.”

Wind Ling Xi responded, "Then you go prepare. When the kites are ready, if the Gallo Nation's army has any intentions of attacking, we act immediately."

Little Li looked at the princess with worry, "Princess, what about you"

Wind Ling pointed towards General Zhang, "Go over there and have a look. If you need anything, just find me."

Xiao Li went to help General Sun at his request, while Feng Ling Xi went to check on the movements of the Gallo Kingdom.

"My Lord, Gallow Country doesn't seem to have any intention of attacking Linxi County for now." Ye Xi relayed the latest intelligence to the King. Throughout their journey, they had traveled day and night, all for the sake of returning to Linxi County as quickly as possible to reunite with the Princess.

"That's because Dugu Xiu's large army also arrived, now eyeing Gallo Country and Linxi County menacingly. Once Gallo Country and Xi'er clash, Dugu Xiu will be able to seize the opportunity. Gallo Country isn't stupid; it wouldn't risk attacking Linxi County. It's probably waiting for the right moment."

"What the prince means is, can't the Queen's side fight back yet"

It's hard to say.

Du Gucheng frowned, "Ye Xi, you ride as fast as you can back and inform General Li to return to Linxi County. Don't enter the city, just set up camp near the city walls of Linxi County. This king wants to see how many people want this king's life."

"Immediately inform General Li. Your Highness, please be careful."

After giving her instructions, Ye Xi immediately rode off. Dugu City led his army onward.

Feng Yu Xi returned from Dugu Xiu's side in the wind and rain. She wanted to enter the city, but was stopped at the city gate. No matter how she explained, they wouldn't let her in.

"Hey, open your eyes wide and look! I am the third sister of the Fourth Princess, what's wrong with you today Why won't you let me in"

The wind and rain battered Feng Yu Xi at the city gate, she shouted loudly but no one let her in. She was so angry that her face turned blue.

"This is too much! You have Princess coming to see me How dare you treat me like this Watch how I deal with all of you."

The wind and rain beat down, and the soldiers at the city gate drew their swords, brandishing them at her throat. “If you don’t leave, we won’t be polite.”

"Third Miss, perhaps we should leave them be. They clearly don't know your relationship with the Duchess. I will return and report to the Duchess, and then we can deal with them."

Feng Yu Xi glanced at them, took a few steps back, and only then did the guards release her.

“Xiaorou, you have to find a way in. Hurry and go look for Xier and tell her that they won't let me in, so ask her to come help me.” Feng Yu Xi pulled Xiaorou aside and whispered, “They didn’t stop you from entering just now, maybe someone is watching you and preventing you from going into the city.”

Xiao Rou glanced at the city gate, some worry in her eyes.

"Miss Third, the servant doesn't know if they can enter."

"Go ahead and try, they won't stop you, their target is me."

After Feng Yu Xi finished speaking, she urged Xiaorou to go inside. As Feng Yu Xi said, no one stopped Xiaorou when she entered the city, and she successfully entered the city. Xiaorou hurried to find Feng Ling Xi. When she saw Xiaorou, Feng Ling Xi was a little surprised.

"Your Highness, the Third Miss was stopped by the guards at the city gate. She sent me to find you and ask you to come save her."

"Xiaorou, wake up."

Feng Lingxi spoke in a low voice, and Xiao Li stood up. Looking into Feng Lingxi's eyes, she felt a little uneasy.

"It is I who forbid her from entering the city."

Xiao Rou looked up at her in surprise, "Your Highness, why won't you allow the Third Miss to enter the city She is your third sister."

"Xiaorou, tell me, these days you go out with her every day. Where have you been going, and who have you met"

Feng Ling Xi asked like this, Xiao Rou was frightened and knelt on the ground, “Your Highness, please forgive me, the maidservant did everything according to the Third Miss’s orders. The maidservant has not done anything wrong to Your Highness.”

“I never said you did something that made me apologize, Xiaorou. I've been here for so long, you should know what kind of person I am. I have never acted inappropriately towards the maids in this household. It's you, knowing all along what Sanjie has been meeting with, yet coming to me now and asking me to let her in. Xiaorou, do you want glory and wealth, or do you want the lives of millions of people in Linxi County”

Feng Ling Xi's words caused Xiao Rou to burst into tears. "Your Highness, forgive me, I know my mistake. The Third Miss allowed me to follow her, she let me follow her to meet people. As a servant, I did nothing wrong except following her orders. Please, Your Highness, see through this."

"Come on, tell me, who did she take you to see when you went out with her What was the purpose"

Xiaorou looked up at Feng Lingxi, seeing her cold expression, knew she couldn't hide it anymore, so she told the truth.

"The third young miss brought her maidservant along precisely so that the maidservant could act as a lookout for her. As for who she met, the maidservant has no idea."

"Go back and rest, don't inquire about her matters anymore. From now on, you are no longer her maid."

Feng Lingxi ordered, looking at Xiaorou's trembling expression, "Take her down and watch over her carefully."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for sparing my life."

"Your Highness,"

Xiao Li walked in, glanced at Xiao Rou, and walked up to Feng Ling Xi. She whispered in her ear, "The arsenic has arrived."

Feng Lingxi's eyes lit up, "Where is the person"

"I was hurt in my house."

Feng Lingxi's expression changed suddenly, and she hurriedly said, "Take me there quickly." She was injured again, it seemed she still hadn't succeeded.

In Xiao Li's room, a figure lay on the bed. Her face was pale and bloodless, her facial scars were terrifying, a testament to months of hardship. She who once possessed such fragility, now bore only the weight of repression and a hint of killing intent in her eyes.

"Arsenic."

Feng Lingxi walked to her, looking at her arm stained red with blood, and hurried over, grabbing her hand, "Who hurt you"

"My Queen, it's good to see you. I came here to tell you, Dugu Xiu brought his army here not to kill Dugu Cheng, but to kill you." A trace of pain flickered across Pi Shao's face as she urged, "You must take Xiao Li and leave Linxi County immediately. You can't hold them off."

"Little Li, fetch some water and use arsenic to treat the wound."

Feng Ling's words had barely left her lips when Pi Shang snatched her hand away and roared at her, "Go! Do you think your medical skills can save your life This time, Dugu Xiu isn't just bringing his own forces. He has the combined might of 300,000 troops from the Kingdom of Galuo. They've joined forces, I tell you! Run now, before it's too late!"ook on the table with them.Du Gu Su was pushed in, this was Feng Ling Xi's first time seeing Du Gu Su leave the mansion. Before, it was always her who went to Su Wangfu, but she never expected that on...
