Chapter 1369: Smoke Rises 190

send someone to handle it.Luoli came to find her the next day and said goodbye, explaining that she needed to leave the capital for a while to attend to important matters. Although she didn't know wha...Of course not.

Lu Nian thought about it, he had been doing pretty well lately, he probably wouldn't get beaten up.

"Let's go then."

Lu Nian tidied up and followed Xiaoli to Chen Wang's Mansion. Along the way, Xiaoli told Lu Nian everything that happened at the mansion. When it came to Tian Xiaomi, Lu Nian was also indignant. The two of them talked more and more angrily, almost forming an alliance to go find Tian Xiaomi to settle the score. But later, both were afraid that Feng Lingxi would be angry, so they just cursed a few words and let it go.

Feng Lingxi hadn't waited for her love, but instead, she was visited by Nangong Huayun. Upon learning that Dugu Cheng wasn't at the manor, Nangong Huayun went straight to the point, his attention still focused on Feng Lingxi.

"Your Highness, the Princess Consort of Chen, I've come to ask today if you could possibly heal my mother."

Nan Gong Huayun came this time with a consultation fee. He had sent people to inquire and knew that the Crown Princess of Chen loved rare and precious medicinal herbs, so he specially brought some precious herbs hoping that the Crown Princess would diagnose his mother for him.

Feng Lingxi remained silent, not uttering a word. This Nangong Huayun was truly determined to find her to heal his mother. She really didn't want to get involved in this mess.

"Prince Huayun, there have been so many things happening at the mansion lately, I really am..."

"It's alright, as long as you agree to see my mother, just the consultation. I'll handle everything else, Your Highness. Please, Princess Consort, I beg you, save my mother."

Nangong Huayun's eyes pleaded, begging almost to the point of kneeling.

"But..."

She really didn't want to, the wife of this Prime Minister's mansion, she truly didn't want to treat her.

“Your Highness, the Princess Consort of Chen, do you know why I have come to Xicun this time I am here on an imperial decree to find King Feng. I am here to help King Chen, please trust me, give me a chance, and I will do my best to help King Chen complete his mission.”

Nan Gong Huayun brought this matter to light, Feng Lingxi still refused. Emperor Yuan Zhao asked Dugu Cheng to find Dugu Feng, not her. What does this have to do with her

If the wife of this Prime Minister's mansion were to have an accident during her treatment, she would truly be unable to escape blame.

Nan Gong Hua Yun saw the wind rise and remain silent, thinking she was considering. He continued, “Princess Chen, I'm truly at my wit's end. My mother’s condition can no longer be delayed. I implore Princess Chen, with your kind heart, to lend a hand.”

"It's not that I'm unwilling to treat her, it's just that your mother's illness has been going on for so many years, and you have sought out famous doctors who couldn't cure her. I'm afraid I don't have the ability either. Besides, your mother is the wife of the Prime Minister. I'm afraid if I can't cure her..."

Feng Lingxi hadn't finished speaking when Nan Gong Huayun interrupted and swore, "Princess Consort of Chen, no matter if you can cure my mother or not, as long as you are willing to lend a hand, no matter the outcome, I accept it."

Feng Ling sighed, he had already said so much, she really couldn't refuse him.

"Then bring her to my house tomorrow, and I'll take a look at her."

"I wonder if it would be too much trouble for the Princess Consort to go to the post house, my mother has been traveling long and hard, her health is not good. Tomorrow I will send someone to pick up the Princess Consort at the post house. Would that be alright"

"Good."

With things already this far, there's no way she could refuse.

Nan Gong Huayun hurriedly thanked her, "Thank you, Princess Chen. Huayun thanks your Highness on behalf of my mother."

"Since I haven't treated you yet, Young Master Hua Yun, there's no need to be so polite. I promise to treat your mother and do my best, but I can't guarantee a cure."

"As long as the Princess Consort of Chen is willing to treat Hua Yun, he will be infinitely grateful."

After Nangong Huayun finished speaking, Xiaoli led Lu Nian in from outside. Seeing Nangong Huayun there, she was a little surprised and then walked over with Lu Nian.

"Your Highness, Young Master Huayun."

Nangong Huayun looked at Lu Nian, her eyes full of confusion. Feng Lingxi introduced, "Huayun Gongzi, this is Lu Nian. All the medicinal herbs in Tumuwzhen were donated by him."

Lu Nian clasped his hands together and gave a casual greeting, "Lu Nian."

"So it's Young Master Lu. My name is Nan Gong Hua Yun," he finished, then turned to Feng Ling Xi and said, "Since Princess Chen has guests now, I'll come and pick you up at the inn tomorrow. I won't disturb you further."

Wind Lingxi responded and instructed Xiaoli, "Escort Master Huayun."

"Please, Master Huayun."

Xiao Li made a gesture, and Nan Gong Hua Yun bid farewell. Only then did Lu Nian ask Feng Ling Xi, "Is this person the imperial envoy sent by the emperor"

"Envoy"

Wind Ling frowned, seeing Lu Nian nod, a hint of surprise in her eyes. "How did I not know he was an imperial envoy"

He is very ostentatious in front of others, just not in front of you guys. However, he's acting this way because he definitely has something to ask you.

He's been bedridden for a long time, and he wants me to go see him.

Feng Lingxi took a deep breath, alone in the city. With no one else around but Lu Nian, she finally had someone to talk to.

"No wonder, I said his attitude was so good. While we weren't here, this guy walked sideways. Now that he needs something from you, no wonder he's so polite."

Lu Nian's exaggerated words were indeed quite fitting. She didn't like this Nanguang Huayun either, but she couldn't avoid him because of his status.

"By the way, I came to you today to talk about the medicinal herbs used in Tumu Town. How much do all those herbs cost Have you calculated it I'll have the accounting department settle up with you."

Feng Lingxi said the serious matter, this money thing has to be settled clearly. Although she knew the amount was not small, she still had to pay it back to him.

Lu Nian raised an eyebrow, looking at Feng Lingxi who was taking notes with a pen and paper. She frowned and asked, "Do you have any money"

"If you have no money, do you not have to repay it"

Lu Nian nodded, "Then don't give it. Anyway, I don't care about this amount of money. By the way, where is Dugu City"

Changing the subject, Lu Nianke was more familiar with Feng Lingxi's affairs than Feng Lingxi herself. When mentioning Dugu City, Feng Lingxi told Lu Nian about Feng Yumo. After all, it wasn't anything she couldn't say. This Dugu City wasn't in Linxi County. During this time, if Lu Nian wanted to visit Wan'er at her home, she wouldn't stop her.

"According to what you're saying, there's something wrong with the local government. These bandits are colluding with them. Your brother is probably in a very dangerous situation."

Lu Nian seriously pondered, and as soon as she finished speaking, she noticed Feng Lingxi's sorrowful eyes. She quickly explained, "It's not that he actually has something to do. It's just that this government and the bandits colluding are very troublesome. Dugu City is the King of Chen, he can solve it."

“I know, I’m just worried about Yu Mo’s safety. He’s so pitiful. Unlike the other children in the Feng family, his mother died young, and Feng Aotian doesn’t like him. As a bastard son, he lived outside General Feng’s residence since childhood, enduring hardships. He understands things better than anyone else. I truly treat him as my own younger brother.”

Lu Nian saw the mist rising in Feng Lingxi's eyes, feeling a pang of sourness.

Feng Lingxi treated Feng Yumo better than she treated her own older brother. This Feng Yumo was truly envied by him.

"So you're telling me all this, as my dear older brother, what do you mean Are you trying to get me to sympathize with him" Lu Nian's voice was dripping with sarcasm. "If you were really that kind to me, I'd be willing to fall off a cliff a few times." was Dugu Cheng."Feng Ling lowered her head, took a sip of water, and images from this morning flashed in her mind. Her ears flushed involuntarily - what a shame!"Didn't you ask us what we saw him do...
