than the Emperor's or the Grand Empress Dowager's edicts."Feng Aotian's expression changed slightly, but he made a great effort not to show it.Although I have been away from the capital for a while,...The carriage suddenly jolted, Feng Ling Xi leaned forward, and Du Gu Cheng reacted quickly, pulling Feng Ling Xi into his arms. They heard the sound of fighting outside. Feng Ling Xi and Du Gu Cheng exchanged a glance. Du Gu Cheng lifted the curtain of the carriage and a long sword was thrust towards them. Du Gu Cheng dodged, the sword missing its mark. Ye Xi rushed forward to rescue him and engaged in a fight with the black-clothed swordsman.
"The Prince and Princess are under attack by assassins."
Night Xi shouted, watching the growing number of black-clad men around her, starting to feel overwhelmed.
Dugu Cheng and Feng Lingxi got off the carriage. Xiao Li had already hurriedly retreated to their side, warily watching the men in black. “My lord, my lady, these are the men in black. They seem to be the same group from the Yao tribe before.”
Feng Lingxi looked at those men in black, her eyes flashing with a cold glint. This Yao Clan's storage rental was really unbearable. They didn't say anything earlier, but now they brought it up just when she wanted a child. Was it even possible now
Upon hearing that it was a Yao clan member, Dugu City couldn't help but chuckle.
"Xi'er, it seems you have to hurry up and give this king a fat little boy."
Feng Lingxi gave him a withering look. "What time is it Do you still have the mood to joke around"
Du Gucheng looked at those men in black, "Who are you kidding around with, Your Highness I'm serious."
Seeing Xier's expression, Dugu City smirked, "What if I settle them all When we get back, you give this king a child, how about that"
Feng Lingxi looked at the smile in Dugu City's eyes. This fellow was addicted.
"I can handle them too."
Feng Ling Xi watched as the black-clad man and Ye Xi fought fiercely. Her hand moved within her sleeve, drawing the bow crossbow aimed at them, but she was stopped by Dugu Cheng grabbing her wrist. "I'm here, how could I let my beloved wife take action If this were to spread, wouldn't I lose all face"
Seeing Dugu Cheng's suddenly serious expression, Feng Ling Xi didn't even have time to speak before hearing Dugu Cheng say, "Protect the Princess well, this King will make a swift victory."
Feng Lingxi only saw Dugu Cheng draw his sword and go out, fighting the black-clothed men. The blades flashed, and the black-clothed men quickly fell in a heap. Feng Lingxi watched Dugu Cheng's handsome movements, this martial arts skill indeed didn't need her to take action.
Feng Lingxi walked to the corpse of the man in black and knelt down, checking the marks on his body. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
"He's really a member of the Yao ethnic group."
Xiaoli looked at the princess, her eyes filled with sympathy. “Princess, we are all members of the Yao clan. Why are you treating us this way”
Feng Lingxi's eyes were slightly cold, "You also know that these are people from the Yao clan. They assassinated me first. Should I still be concerned about them and give them opportunities to chase and kill me repeatedly"
Xiaoli looked at the coldness in the princess's eyes. She just felt that it was cruel as members of the Yao tribe, but what the princess said was also right. It was truly puzzling why the Yao tribe would have such a mission. The princess didn't say she wouldn't have an heir. Such a pursuit and assassination of the princess was indeed deserving of death.
"Xiao Li, this isn't the first time."
Feng Ling Xi's words caused Xiao Li to lower her eyebrows, "The meaning of the Princess Consort, the maidservant understands. The Yao clan's customs are also strange, why must they assassinate the Princess Consort"
"It's all cleaned up." Feng Lingxi watched Du Gucheng walk over, and went to look at the bloodstain on his body. It seemed that the death of the black-clothed man in front of him had nothing to do with him.
It's true, I have walked among flowers but remained untouched.
"Go back."
Wind Lingxi got into the carriage and looked at Dugu Cheng who lightly patted her shoulder. “How is it”
"Xier doesn't think these people from the Yao clan are really bold. This is under the emperor's feet, wouldn't they be afraid of getting caught if they attempted such an assassination"
Feng Lingxi frowned slightly, "They're all death soldiers, what's there to be afraid of."
Du Gu Cheng also thought the same, by the time the carriage returned to the Duke's Mansion it was dark. Yao Wan Ying learned that Feng Ling Xi had been assassinated and after inquiring, reminded her, "Xi Er, next time you must be even more careful, the number of assassinations will become more frequent."
"Mother, since we are all from the Yao clan, why resort to such an assassination You could have simply asked me to give birth to an heir. Sending these assassins to kill me resulted in the needless sacrifice of so many clan members. What were they thinking"
Yao Wan'ying looked into Feng Lingxi's eyes, seeing the flames of anger within them. "Mother plans to return to the Yao clan for a trip. This assassin is different from the people Mother and her family know. Mother needs to go back to the Yao clan to see what's going on. Xi’er, stay here and be extra careful."
“Is Mother going back to the Yao Clan”
Feng Ling xi hurriedly asked, "When will your mother be back"
Yao Wan'ying shook her head. "I don't know for now, this time when I go back, I'm afraid I won't be back in the short term. If there's anything, my mother will have the clansmen pass you a message."
Feng Lingxi looked at the worry in her mother's eyes, grasping her hand, "Mother, are you suspicious that there is a problem within the Yao clan"
"Unsure."
Feng Ling Xi heard this, her face wasn't looking too good either. Now with these constant assassination attempts, she worried there was a problem within the Yao Clan. She feared that even if she gave birth to an heir, it wouldn't change her fate of being assassinated.
“This matter must be thoroughly investigated. If there is indeed a problem within the Yao clan, we must deal with it promptly to prevent Empress Dowager from finding out and harming Xi'er.”
Dugu Cheng's eyes showed worry. Once Xi'er lost the Yaozu treasure, she would lose her value. The Empress Dowager and Dugu Yan wouldn't keep her, and Xi'er's situation would become very dangerous.
"I think so too, so I have to go back. You take care of Xi'er for me," Yao Wan'ying instructed Dugu Cheng. "Before I get back and if you encounter assassins from the Yao clan, don't hesitate, kill them all without mercy. Make sure Xi'er is safe."
"Rest assured, Mother, I know how to handle this and will not put Xi'er in danger."
"As for Empress Cen, remember to keep her in the dark about the Yao clan. Otherwise, it might harm Xi'er."
Yao Wanying was very uneasy. If there was really something wrong with the Yao tribe, she didn't dare to think about how the Empress Dowager would deal with Xi'er.
"This king remembers it all, Mother-in-law, rest assured."
Feng Lingxi watched Dugu Cheng listen attentively to his mother's instructions. All she worried about was whether her mother would be safe on this return trip. What had happened in Yaoli
After their meal, Feng Lingxi and Dugu City returned to their room to rest. However, Feng Lingxi tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Today's assassination attempt by the Yao clan troubled her deeply. She couldn't shake the feeling that they weren't after her for the succession.
"Aren't you asleep yet"
Dugu Cheng walked to Feng Lingxi's presence, took off his outer robe and lay down beside her. Looking at Feng Lingxi staring at him, he suddenly smiled.
"Xi'er, are you waiting for this king to give birth"
Feng Lingxi glared at him with displeasure, “What nonsense are you talking about I’m just thinking about living. Is there really something wrong going on inside the Yao Clan Will Mother be able to return safely this time”
"Your mother-in-law didn't tell you not to worry"
Feng Lingxi shook her head, she didn't want to worry about it, but she always felt something was wrong.
