Chapter 1153: Ghost Saint Country

ly isn't your biological son"Luo Li's fingers tapped on the table. Feng Ao Tian, with his aloof and cold expression, continued, "Although our Yao Clan keeps to itself, I still understand reason. A f..."My lord."

Ye Xi rushed back from outside. The butler saw Ye Xi and looked over, Ye Xi walked to Dugu City's side, leaned down, and whispered, "There's news from Shangguan. My subordinate can take you there, but someone is watching us here."

Dugu City glanced at the steward, who hastily averted his gaze and pretended to be nonchalant as he directed the servants. His nervousness was evident.

"Go and get him."

Dugu Cheng opened his mouth, a smile appeared at the corner of his lips, and Ye Xi understood the calculation in his eyes. He hurriedly walked over, "Butler, the King requests your presence."

The steward's heart skipped a beat, but since Duke Gu had called for him, he couldn't refuse. He quickly forced a smile and asked, "Night Guard, what brings His Royal Highness to seek me out"

"Of course it's a good thing, our Young Master has always been fair in his rewards and punishments. You've been taking care of the Madam recently, and the Young Master has been praising you before me. He's probably going to reward you."

Hearing praise was one thing, but this was different. This made the steward's heart race; he felt very uneasy.

Does he not know if he is good to the princess

This night the guard said, he was not so panicked before, but now he is even more flustered.

“I have met the Lord.”

"Butler, this king will be taking the Princess out later. Please find Doctor Li and ask him if he would like to join us."

"Doctor Li has left. Doesn't the prince know"

The steward heard that the young master was going out. He recalled that this morning, Dr. Li had said he would be away from the estate for a couple of days and asked him to keep an eye on things. Now, how could the young master just go out

"I went out, this king didn't pay attention. Xier has been clinging to this king these days, and I haven't had time to look for him. Where did Dr. Li go, and when will he be back"

"After two days of saying it, Your Highness, where are you taking the Princess to"

The steward asked cautiously, afraid of arousing suspicion from Dugu City. Dugu City made no secret of it, "Last night, this king promised Xi'er to take her out of the city for a walk. As you know, she is now like a child, very clingy, and this king couldn't resist her. Today's weather is pleasant, this king intends to take her out for a stroll. I originally planned to bring Doctor Li along, but now it seems that only this king can go with Xi'er."

And with that, he let out a sigh of slight regret.

"Shall I accompany the Master and Madam on this trip"

"Butler, if you leave, who will take care of this household Miss Wan'er is still here. You can't leave, or if anything were to happen to Miss Wan'er, the Duchess would know and surely blame you for negligence."

Ye Xi reminded, looking at the steward's suddenly changing face, he was indeed from the Yao clan. When it came to Feng Lingxi, he still had some scruples.

"Butler, this king is bringing Xi'er out to hunt in the suburbs. We'll bask in the sun, enjoy the scenery, and return by evening. You stay at the manor and look after Wan'er. Ever since she went to the summer court, she's been quiet and withdrawn. With me accompanying Xi'er, I haven't been able to attend to Wan'er properly, so I'll have to trouble you, Butler."

"No, it's my fortune to take care of the young master. The King and Queen can go out and play, I will definitely take good care of the young master."

Knowing that Dugu City went hunting, the housekeeper didn't think much of it.

After all, Dr. Li said that we only need to know the movements of Dugu City.

"Ye Xi, prepare the horse."

"Your Highness, are you riding a horse"

The steward was a little surprised. Dugu City nodded, "Of course, the weather is nice today, galloping on horseback, Xi'er also likes it. Besides, this king goes hunting, and it's not suitable to ride in a carriage."

The steward nodded in agreement, “What the lord says is very true, I shall go prepare some food for the young master now.”

Wan'er loves to eat chicken legs, so she told the kitchen to make her a few more. Also, don't let her eat too many, or she might not be able to digest them.

"Yes."

The steward responded and withdrew, leaving only Dugu Cheng facing Ye Xi. He winked at Ye Xi, who went to inform Feng Yuemo to accompany them. He ordered the others to stay behind and continue monitoring the house. As they left, Dugu Cheng took only Feng Lingxi and Ye Xi with him. After the steward relayed the news, he followed outside the city and then withdrew.

Feng Yu Mo saw that the tail was gone and then came out to meet Dugu Cheng. Looking at Feng Ling Xi dozing off, Feng Yu Mo's eyes were full of doubt, "Brother-in-law, why is my sister so sleepy"

It's not even noon yet, how come my spirits are so low.

"I had quite a lot to eat before I went out, so I'm probably feeling sleepy from being full. However, it's about the same time as yesterday when I felt sleepy, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem."

Ye Xi glanced around, "My lord, I'll lead the way, just follow close behind."

"After the feather ink pad, pay attention to your back, do not let anyone follow."

Feng Yu Mo responded with a sound, and the group rode away on horseback.

Li Wuyan went out this time to see Luoli. In a few days, the worm in Feng Lingxi's body would take shape. If he really wanted to kill Feng Lingxi, he could make his move. If not, he would have to let the worm die in her womb.

"Ah Yan."

Luo Li saw Li Wu Yan, and smiled broadly as she walked forward, wanting to give him a big hug, but Li Wu Yan dodged her.

"What's with all the hostility I'm not going to eat you."

Luoli sat down and looked at Li Wuyan's gloomy face. "You look unhappy. I haven't seen you like this in a long time."

"Why are you doing this, Fengling" Li Wuyan cut straight to the point. Luo Li's smile gradually faded as he met Li Wuyan's questioning gaze. "It wasn't my intention, it was the elders' decision."

"So, you had someone 'drug' her, making her miscarry from poisoning"

Luo Li looked at Li Wu Yan's questioning eyes, feeling increasingly troubled.

"A Flame, He Jia wasn't drugged by me. It was Dugu City's wet nurse who..."

"If you didn't change her prescription, and replaced it with the one for pigeons, how could she have poisoned them Don't you know, doing this, Feng Lingxi will be utterly devastated when she finds out the truth."

"Didn't you already tell her that the Empress Dowager is behind all of this What does this have to do with me Besides, you poisoned her too. Ah Yan, we are both the same kind of people, doing things for others, unable to control our own destiny."

Li Wuyan looked at Luoli, his eyes full of anger, his fists clenched.

“I never truly wanted to kill Feng Lingxi. She held no necessity of death to me.”

Luoli gave Li Wuyan a glass of water. "She didn't have to die, but only like this would Yao Wan'ying appear. No wonder I treated her this way, because as long as I could force Yao Wan'ying out, no matter what pain she endured wasn't my decision. If she blames anyone, she can only blame Yao Wan'ying."

Luo Li clenched her fists, ignoring Li Wu Yan's furious glare.

"Ayan, I told you, we and she are ultimately not the same kind of people. We can't be long-lasting friends. You and Dugu Cheng are the same. Don't forget why you've endured so much hardship for so long. Don't tell me you fell for Feng Lingxi."

Li Wuyan's face was gloomy, Luoli patted his back, "Don't get involved emotionally, and don't fall for Feng Lingxi. Don't forget the poison in your body. It was you who chose this path."

"If I were to fall in love, would you then plan to kill me After all, I'm just a useless pawn, aren't I"ou think is following us"Dugu Cheng hooked his lips and smiled, asking, "Feng Lingxi seriously pondered for a moment. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!"It was Duguy."...
