Chapter 178: Court Change 22

ox in his hand. Every pill inside was made by Xi'er after staying up all night. He understood her worries, and since he promised to protect her, he would definitely keep his word.Ye Xi, enter the pala..."Promise me one thing, and I'll let you go."

Feng Lingxi felt her strength loosen a little. This change made her feel that Feng Lingyu didn't really want to kill her.

“I'm out of options, Feng Lingxi. I know you're not my fourth sister. My fourth sister had her brain burned out and wasn't as smart as you. I saw everything you did today clearly. Everyone around me wants me dead, Feng Lingxi. I only ask that you promise me one thing.”

Feng Lingxi listened to her words and replied.

"Help me kill Feng Linglong and the Sixth Prince."

Feng Lingxi's body stiffened, watching the Sixth Prince standing in the distance looking at them. Feng Lingyu looked like this... he was actually watching with a blank expression. Could it all be that the Sixth Prince had Feng Lingyu do this

"Promise me."

Feng Lingyu shouted, looking at the guard pointing an arrow at her. Feng Lingyu was terrified, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Tell me why"

"Because I hate that they used me."

Feng Lingyu's voice was filled with hatred. Feng Lingxi responded, and suddenly the force on her neck loosened. She heard a muffled "poof" from behind her. Turning around, she saw Feng Lingyu holding a golden hairpin that had pierced her chest. Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, and her eyes stared at Feng Lingyu weakly, saying, "Don't lie to me."

Looking at Feng Lingyu's pleading eyes, Feng Lingxi nodded. Feng Lingyu's face changed, and her body fell down.

"Xier."

Dugu Cheng rushed forward and hugged Feng Lingxi, placing her in a safe place. He looked at her with worry and asked, "Are you hurt"

"No."

Dugu Cheng looked at the bruise on her neck, his heart aching as he gently rubbed it for her.

"Xi'er, are you alright"

The Emperor and Shu Fei stepped forward, concernedly inquiring. Feng Ling Xi shook her head, looking at Feng Ling Yu who had died by suicide, her mood was very complicated.

"Bring her out! Let the Wind Spirit Jade be dragged before me and left to rot for three days, as a warning to others!"

Feng Lingxi heard that the Empress was going to abuse the corpse, so she hurriedly stepped forward to plead for Feng Lingyu.

"Your Majesty, please show mercy."

The Empress looked at Feng Lingxi, her eyes extremely cold. "You want to plead for her She almost killed you just now."

Feng Ling Xi glanced at Feng Ling Yu lying on the ground, “Today is Empress Dowager's birthday, Feng Ling Yu did such a thing to disturb the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, it is indeed deserving of death, but she has committed suicide. Please, Empress Dowager, for today being your birthday, spare her.”

The Empress looked at Feng Lingyu, the anger in her eyes making Feng Lingxi uneasy. She knelt down.

"Your Majesty, I beg for mercy. Please spare Lingyu this time, Your Majesty. I don't want Your Majesty's hands to be stained with blood today."

"You, Feng Ling Xi! This palace said I would reward you, and yet you dare to plead for this lowly wretch Do you know that by begging for him, you forfeit your reward"

Feng Lingxi raised her head and looked at the Empress, "This servant is willing, only begging the Empress to be at ease."

The Empress stared at Feng Ling Xi for a long time before saying, "Rise, I shall heed your words and spare Feng Ling Yu this lowly wretch."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Dugu Cheng helped Feng Lingxi get up. He truly didn't understand why she insisted on trying to earn rewards from Fenglingyu and the Empress. Not only did Dugu Cheng not understand, but no one present knew her intentions.

"Today's banquet is over, you all may disperse."

The Empress dropped a word and left, the birthday banquet becoming like this, no one was in the mood anymore.

Feng Lingxi saw that the Empress had relented. She walked up to Feng Aotian and said, “Take her back and bury her properly. After all, she is your daughter.”

Feng Aotian looked at her, his expression complex, but he didn't say anything.

"Xier, we should go now."

Today, Xi'er can be said to be exhausted. Fortunately, she managed to get out unscathed thanks to the commotion caused by Feng Lingyu.

"Father Emperor, Mother Empress, we shall take our leave first."

Feng Lingxi bade farewell to the Emperor and Consort Shu, bowing her head. Seeing them nod, she followed Dugu Cheng out of the palace.

After getting into the carriage, Feng Lingxi, weary and exhausted, leaned against it. The words Windling Yu uttered before his death still echoed in her ears, fresh in her memory.

"Xi'er, are you tired"

Dugu Cheng looked at her like this, and softly said, "Let's go back and have a good rest later."

"My lord, do you know why I just pleaded for Feng Lingyu"

"Xi'er does this, naturally there is your intention, as long as you are alright, this king doesn't want to ask too much."

Feng Lingxi smiled at him and said, "Thank you."

With this level of trust, she felt at ease.

She didn't want too many people to know about the conversation she had with Feng Lingyu. After all, telling others about this wouldn't benefit Dugu City in any way, and it might even cause him trouble. She pleaded for Feng Lingyu today, and the Empress was furious. She truly didn't know what would happen tomorrow after today.

"I'll take a quick nap, call me when you're ready."

Feng Lingxi leaned there, closing her eyes and fell asleep in a moment. Dugu City sat beside her, resting her head on his shoulder and reaching out to hold her, making her sleep more comfortably. Such an action, Feng Lingxi did not react at all, which shows how tired she was.

Upon arriving at the palace, Dugu City carried Feng Lingxi back to his room and placed her on the bed before instructing Xiao Li, "Guard the Princess. This king will go out for a moment."

Xiao Li responded and stayed in the princess's room until late at night when Dugu City returned, only then did she return to her room to rest.

Feng Lingxi woke up to find it was already the next morning. Looking at Dugu City lying beside her, she was a little surprised. She lowered her head and looked at her clothes, her brows furrowed. Who had changed her clothes

"Awake"

Dugu Cheng opened his eyes, Feng Lingxi hurriedly sat up, facing Dugu Cheng, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Dugu Cheng got up and put on his coat. "You slept too soundly yesterday, Your Highness. I carried you back, and let Xiao Li change your clothes. I didn't touch you."

"Why didn't you wake me up"

Hearing his explanation, Feng Lingxi felt much more at ease. She was still very satisfied with Dugucheng's gentlemanly behavior.

"You're too tired, this king can't bear to see it."

Feng Lingxi, upon hearing his words, couldn't help but blush. Her heart pounded like a deer caught in the snare because of his words.

"Xi'er, last night this king went out for a while because the Sixth Prince took Feng Lingyu away."

Feng Lingxi heard that Feng Lingyu had been taken away and hurriedly asked, "Why would he take Feng Lingyu away Doesn't he care about her at all"

Feng Lingyu said the Sixth Prince had harmed her, causing her to become like this. Could there be some hidden truth to this

"Have you ever thought, Xi'er, that Feng Lingyu might not be dead at all"

Dugu Cheng's reminder made Feng Lingxi frown. When she saw Feng Lingyu's wound, the golden hairpin was stabbed so deep, how could she not die

Yesterday, I didn't check if Feng Lingyu was dead. Your father took her back, and the General's Mansion didn't hang white lanterns.

Dugu Cheng looked at the doubt in her eyes and continued, "If Feng Lingyu were truly dead, even if Sixth Prince took her back, he would have held a funeral for her. But there wasn't."

"Could it be that it was too late yesterday, so I didn't have time to prepare"le, when the Wangfei wakes up she will definitely go to the pond to check. Clan leader, this servant begs you, help the Wangfei, she really can't lose the Wangye."Luo Li glanced at Feng Ling Xi's pale...
