Chapter 935: Metamorphosis
nce is a shame to him."Feng Yumo's eyes welled up with tears, Feng Lingxi touched his head with a heartache, "From now on, you only need to remember that you have Fourth Sister. As for the Feng family...Feng Lingxi and Luo Li looked at each other, both of their eyes filled with confusion.
"This Du Gu Xiu knows quite a lot of people from the border region, so it's really hard to say who poisoned him with venom."
Feng Lingxi carefully recalled the people Dugu Xiu might have come into contact with, her eyes suddenly lit up, staring at Luo Li, "Could it be Yelü Hong"
Besides him, she couldn't think of anyone else.
After the extermination of Yelu Hong's Dan Liao tribe, he didn't die. He escaped with Dugu Xiu for a period of time and disappeared. Could this period of absence be related to the venomous poisons of the Western Regions
Feng Lingxi's speculation made Luo Li frown, "If that's really the case, then Du Gu Xiu and Yelu Hong's relationship is probably not as good as it seems. Otherwise, Yelu Hong wouldn't have planted love poison on Du Gu Xiu. Even if Du Gu Xiu became emperor, he would only be a tyrant."
Given Yelü Hong's attentiveness, it must be that Dugu Xiu did something to him. Otherwise, Dugu Xiu would have gone looking for an antidote after planting the love bug on him.
"We can only speculate at this point, and it's difficult to say for sure if Yelü Hong was involved."
Luo Li calmed down, "The most urgent task right now is to find the person behind getting the gunpowder formula." This gunpowder formula must be retrieved, otherwise if it's actually made and causes war, it would be terrible.
Feng Lingxi nodded, she is now worried about this.
At first, she researched it to help Dugu City, but now it has become a hidden danger.
"Actually, this thing, if used skillfully, is not unusable."
Luoli hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth, looking at Feng Lingxi's furrowed brows, "I know you're resistant, but have you ever considered that the power of this gunpowder, if it could truly be used to reduce war and pacify the world, would also be a good thing."
Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li. At that moment, she suddenly had an idea.
She wanted to transport the materials for her gunpowder formula back to her Yao clan's territory and conceal them.
In this era, these materials are not so easy to find. The raw materials in their hands might be what she left behind. If they were gone, they might not be able to find them. Even if there is a recipe, without the materials, it would be impossible to refine.
Wind Ling's lips curled into a slight smile, a hint of scheming flashing in her eyes.
"Ayan told me about you. You've changed a lot recently."
Luo Li sank her voice and spoke, “I know Elder Yao informed you about Du Gu Cheng. This must be quite a shock for you. However, I still want to remind you, no matter what you do, remember one thing: never forget your original intention.”
"What is my original intention"
Feng Lingxi looked at Luoli, "Or perhaps, what I've done these past few days, have I committed any acts of harming heaven and disrupting earth"
"That's not what I meant. You've been making quite a stir lately, and your reputation has spread throughout the martial world. Many influential figures are now keeping an eye on you. The news about your collaboration with Empress Cen to obtain the Yao Clan's treasure made many people hostile towards you. Now, with this situation unfolding, it's likely that you will attract attention from various nations."
"Peeking into the Yao Clan's Treasure"
Feng Lingxi let out a cold snort, "Do you think I would give up this treasure"
What she needs to do now is expand her influence, at least enough to protect herself and the people she wants to protect.
"They covet you now that you are alone."
Feng Ling was taken aback, looking at Luoli's eyes with a hint of surprise.
"Could it be that they're dismissing all those unmarried young girls and are set on marrying me, a divorced woman"
"Xier, don't always keep mentioning being a widow. When Dugu Cheng recovers his memory, he will beg you to return."
Feng Lingxi glanced at him, her eyes gradually turning cold.
"Dugu Cheng has never lost his memory. The clan leader wouldn't not know this, would he"
"I..."
Lost for words, he stared into Feng Lingxi's eyes, the coldness within them making him forget everything. He had forgotten that Feng Lingxi already knew about this.
"Now that you know everything, what else is there to say."
This decision was made by Dugu City himself, and it has nothing to do with him.
"By the way, I have something to do, so I'll be leaving. If you need anything, ask Ah Yan to tell me." Luoli got up and left, seeming a little reluctant.
Feng Lingxi knew that Luo Li was afraid of her scolding him, but now she knew everything, how could she scold him She should thank Luo Li and Dugu Cheng for protecting her like this. Otherwise, she was afraid she would have died tens of thousands of times by now.
After Zi Feng Ling learned the truth, Du Gu Cheng never saw her again. News spread throughout the capital that Empress Cen had suddenly fallen ill and was bedridden. There was also a dispute between the Emperor and Prince Su, who was summoned by Empress Cen. This angered Du Gu Xiu, leading to an open and covert power struggle between them. The court was in turmoil, and the dissatisfaction with Du Gu Xiu among the people of the Great Yuan Dynasty grew increasingly intense, as did the calls for his removal from power.
Since Empress Cen fell ill, she summoned Dugu Su only to ask him to bring Feng Lingxi back. She believed that only Feng Lingxi could cure her illness. These imperial physicians treated her every day, but her health grew worse instead.
In the autumn season, Cen Taizu, who had been ill for three months, was now critically ill, barely able to leave his bed. In Shou'an Palace, only Dugu City saw Cen Taizu alone. Looking at Dugu City, who had returned after a delay of three months, Cen Taizu seemed to have seen a lifeline.
"Feng Ling, have you come back"
Dugu Cheng looked at Cen Taihou's emaciated and shrunken figure. If he wasn't worried about his mother's safety, he wouldn't come here to see her.
Feng Lingxi is now the Saint Master of the Yao Clan. When I speak to her, she no longer listens.
"What..." Empress Cen heard this and coughed violently, struggling for breath for a long while.
"The Empress allowed her to return, but she refused to come back."
Dugu Cheng's expression was indifferent, "Your Majesty, I initially went to great lengths to find Feng Lingxi for you. Despite being rejected hundreds of times by her in the Yao Clan, I never gave up on helping Your Majesty find her. Yet, why did Your Majesty allow Yue'er to marry King Su"
Today, Dugu City looked haggard with a noticeable stubble on his chin. He seemed slovenly overall, and this made his words sound rather mournful.
"I didn't force her to marry the Duke of Su, she married him herself."
Empress Dowager Cen coughed, her breath coming in gasps.
"I know you're a man of loyalty and devotion. I kept her imprisoned in the palace, even when the Emperor wanted to take her as his consort, I stopped him. But your woman, she willingly slept with the King of Su on the same bed. What could I do I had to follow her wishes and let her marry the King of Su."
"You're saying it was Huanyue who took the initiative..."
Upon hearing this news, Dugu Cheng feigned being shocked. He looked at Empress Cen in disbelief. Seeing her nod, his handsome face turned pale.
"This empress wouldn't stoop to deceiving you at this juncture. This empress's style has never been so base and shameless."
Dugu City stared at Empress Cen, seeing her coughing severely, her eyes did not seem to be deceiving him.harem already had a queen And she was the prized pearl in the current prime minister's hand, a queen he couldn't possibly depose.If you like "Wind Ling Xi Du Gu Cheng", please copy and paste the follo...
