to reclaim her position as the Fourth Princess. In short, there were many different versions of the story.Feng Ling Xi sat down in a tavern. Dressed in men's clothing, she had clear eyebrows and brigh..."I truly hid you within me, not letting Dugu Yan see."

Feng Lingxi listened to Dugu Cheng's sullen voice, and she burst out laughing. She hugged his neck and looked at his angry face, feeling very happy.

"Dugu Yan wants to marry me not because he truly loves me, but because he covets the treasures of the Yao clan. You should understand this; there's no need to be upset."

But this king is burning with anger. Now that the chaos has just subsided, he's thinking about snatching this king's woman.

Feng Lingxi shook her head. What this lone wolf, Dugu Yan, wanted was more than just taking the women from Dugu City. He wanted to destroy everything Dugu City stood for. Anyone who posed a threat to him, Dugu Yan would want eliminated.

"The Empress's health has started to deteriorate, I believe she will soon ask me to return to the Yao Clan to retrieve the treasure. These days, you should rest well and recuperate. When the time comes, we will return together. This time when we go back to the Yao Clan, we will wait for Dugu Xiu to return to the capital before we leave."

Empress Cen's mind was wavering, she probably couldn't wait any longer either.

"With war imminent, the national treasury will undoubtedly be depleted. At that time, they will certainly bring up the matter of the Yao tribe. Well then, it's a good opportunity to leave for a while and ease my troubled mind."

Feng Lingxi responded, "Later, I want to go to the General's Mansion. It's been a long time since I've seen my mother, and I don't know how she's doing at the General's Mansion now"

"Your mother-in-law will certainly be well taken care of at the General's Mansion. Don't forget, she's not the old Lady Feng anymore, but the Saintess of the Yao Clan."

Speaking of this, Feng Lingxi felt it was necessary to meet her mother. This period of time, she told others that she was the Holy Master of the Yao Clan, and she needed to explain this to her mother. After all, here everyone knew that her mother had passed away, so her claim as the Holy Master wasn't wrong.

Back at the manor, Feng Lingxi saw Feng Yumuo waiting for her at the gate. Seeing her return, he happily stepped forward, "Fourth Sister, you're back."

"Yu Mo, how did you get here"

Feng Yu Mo saw Dugu City and hurriedly bowed, "Commoner greets the Fourth Prince."

"Xier is the King's queen, you call her Fourth Sister, and you call me Brother-in-law, that's all. We are family now, no need to be so distant."

獨孤城聽夜希說起了風羽墨的事情，既然是被兮兒帶回來的，他自然會好好對待他。

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

Feng Yu's sweet nickname for him, "Brother-in-law," instantly wiped away any displeasure Du Gu Cheng had felt. He patted Feng Yu on the shoulder and said, "Let's go inside and talk."

"Sister Four, Brother-in-law, Madam Yao has arrived."

Feng Yu Mo's words surprised Feng Ling Xi, who hurriedly asked, "When did you come"

Upon hearing that her fourth sister had returned, Lady Yao immediately rushed over from the General's Mansion, even bringing pastries for Yu Mo. Yu Mo asked her to rest in the garden while Sister Xiao Li accompanied her in conversation.

Feng Ling hurriedly went to the garden and saw her mother resting in the gazebo. She hurried forward.

"Mother."

When Yao Wanting saw her, she directly called out to her as "Mother," her gaze falling on Feng Yumo behind her with a look of surprise. She nodded at him, and Feng Yumo stepped forward, looking at Yao Wanting, “Aunt Yao, are you really the mistress”

"Yu Mo, from now on if you're willing, you can call me Mama along with Xi Er."

Feng Yu Mo looked at Feng Ling Xi, hurriedly asking, "Fourth Sister, is she really the mistress"

"Didn't I tell you to call me mother Why, are you not willing"

Wind Lingxi's voice was laced with feigned anger, Wind Yu Mo’s head bobbed like a wave drum as he hurriedly cried out, "Mother."

"Sit down and tell me slowly."

Yao Wan Ying pulled Feng Yu Mo down to sit, and then told her what had happened. After listening, Feng Yu Mo sighed, "When I first heard the news of my mother's death, I was very sad for a long time. Now that I know my mother is still alive, I am very happy."

"It's all my fault, I made Yumu worry."

For this child, Yao Wan-ying still has a soft spot for him. Having grown up outside, she is also the one who protected and raised him, almost like her own half-child. Now that she can take him under her wing, it's also a way of giving his mother some peace of mind.

Feng Yu Mo shook his head, “Mother, if you’re alright, Feng Yu Mo will be very happy. Feng Yu Mo knows that Mother has suffered a lot of grievances, but, why did you leave, and now you're back”

"Mother has returned, there's something she needs to do."

Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yumo's curious gaze and said, "Wait till we get back and Mother will tell you all about it."

Feng Yu Mo didn't ask much either, though he had many questions about his mother's identity, he didn't press her.

"Xi'er, how did you suddenly go with the Fourth Prince to quell the bandits this time without even telling your mother You scared me half to death!"

She is the only daughter, the heir to the Yao clan. If anything were to happen to her, what would become of the Yao clan

Feng Lingxi pulled her mother's hand and coquettishly said, "Mother, this time I left in a hurry, it was my fault. Xi'er promises that next time, she will definitely have someone send you a message. Don't be angry."

"You naughty child, if you do this again, I'll have to punish you severely."

Although Yao WanYing scolded her like that, deep down she knew that even if there was a next time, she wouldn't do anything to her. Xi'er's way of doing things was completely beyond her control. Just like her current actions, they were completely different from their plan. If they hadn't followed her lead, they wouldn't have known what they were doing at all.

The original plan was changed many times because of her, and until now she hasn't been able to take the throne. She even took out the treasures of the Yao clan and traded them with Empress Cen.

"Mother, Xi'er is mindful of her actions. Mother needn't worry for Xi'er."

Yao Wan-ying saw her like this and didn't know what to say.

"During this bandit suppression operation, were there any injuries"

"Mother, this time I was unharmed, and I even received the rank of general."

Feng Lingxi told her mother about Bai Mo and Bai, watching the worry in her mother's eyes, Feng Lingxi explained, "Mother, don't worry, I and Dugu Cheng have made arrangements, this matter will definitely be handled well."

"Your father's attitude towards me has changed recently, which is related to Feng Yixuan's current status. After all, he is the son he treasures most, and Du Gu Xiu also favors him. Your father is very optimistic about Feng Yixuan. About what happened with Feng Yu Xi, your father knows you did it, and he has strong opinions about you. Fortunately, Feng Linglong spoke up for you, otherwise your father would probably have sold you out."

"Mother, please don't mention him as my father in front of me again. He doesn't deserve it at all. If not for your sake, I really want to cut off all ties with him. He has never treated me like his daughter from childhood to now. What he did to you, I can't forgive him."

Without even mentioning what he did to her, he was so cruel and heartless to their mother. She feared that one day, this so-called father would send her and her mother to the execution ground just for his son's sake.

"Mother knows her limits. If that day truly comes, even if you want to acknowledge him, mother won't allow it."

Feng Lingxi responded with a nod, looking at Feng Yumo, "You chat with Mother, I have something to attend to with my Imperial Grandmother. We'll eat together later."

Yao Wan-ying sighed when she saw her leave.

"Your fourth elder sister harbors resentment towards Mother in her heart."uld go back with her, and I would help her."獨孤城 glanced at Feng Lingxi, who was bowing her head and eating in silence, and fell into thought.If what Luoli said is true, then she should think carefully...
