Chapter 20: The Fourth Prince's Challenge

ll here. The Emperor sent Cheng to quell the unrest, likely fearing he might leave along the way. That's why he did this. If Cheng left, they'd hold our lives hostage. It's just another one of the roy...Listening to his parched voice, Feng Lingxi really wanted to give him a package of poison and directly poison him to death, once and for all.

"You're the legitimate daughter of the General's Manor, you know. If you don't want to marry him, your father could plead for you, and it would definitely work. Besides, you're the most beautiful woman in the capital. You're just going to marry a dead man..."

That's enough!

Feng Lingxi roared angrily, banging her fist on the table. She glared at Dugu Cheng with icy eyes, "Speak another word of nonsense, and I'll kill you right now."

I really don't know why I agreed to configure the antidote for him. Such a troublesome person, just kill him and be done with it.

Dugu Cheng felt the killing intent in her eyes and hurriedly covered his mouth. Feng Lingxi glared at him for a while, took a deep breath, and continued to prepare the antidote.

Feng Lingxi is really ruthless, sleeping with him and wanting to kill him. Those blind fools actually said Feng Lingxi was a foolish idiot. She thinks they are the idiots! With this skill, this gaze, and this ruthlessness, she can go head-to-head with anyone.

Half an hour had passed, Feng Ling Xi pushed the prepared antidote in front of him, and coldly warned, "Take the antidote and get out of my sight, don't appear before me again, or I will kill you."

Duguxing carried the packed medicine and looked at Feng Lingxi. How could he get closer to her this time

She seems to really not want anything to do with him, this woman who slept with him and is still so hostile towards him.

"Last question."

Dugu Cheng opened his mouth, and immediately felt Feng Lingxi's icy gaze. He swallowed nervously and hurriedly asked, "I just want to ask you, don't you want to know who I am, what my name is, I..."

"No, I don't want to. Go out now, immediately."

獨孤城 looked at her, then took the medicine and left her room.

Seeing the King come out, Ye Xi hurried forward. Dugu Cheng handed him the medicine pouch and asked coldly, "How is the situation over there"

"Everything is going according to your plan."

Looking at the Wangye's expression, he was most likely scolded by the Fourth Miss again

Ye Xi suddenly looked forward to getting along with the Fourth Miss after the Lord returned to the mansion.

"My lord, today the prince went to General's Mansion to play chess with the fourth young lady. The fourth young lady won him, and the prince even hugged her."

Dugu City's handsome face grew even darker, and Ye Xi, looking at her king's sullen expression, whispered, "Your Highness, do you think the Crown Prince might have known Miss Four before"

"So what if we know each other, she has defeated this king. She is already this king's woman, and in the future, she will be this king's Fourth Princess Consort. Even if this king dislikes her, he cannot give her to the Crown Prince." Dugu Cheng's eyes grew colder, "Go investigate, this king wants to know Feng Lingxi's relationship with the Crown Prince."

That damned woman, she forced herself on him and still wants to associate with the Prince Does she think he's dead

"My Lord, I will go investigate immediately."

Without the disturbance of Dugu City, Feng Lingxi had a particularly solid few days. The Feng family was busy with her wedding preparations, and the entire General's Mansion was filled with joy.

Even Zhang moved to Feng Lingxi's courtyard and lived with her. On the eve of their wedding, the mother and daughter chatted all night long. Feng Lingxi had hoped to learn something about the original owner going to the dilapidated house from them, but she learned nothing.

The wedding day arrived just like that, and under the escort of the bridal procession, Feng Ling Xi was married to Prince Si's Mansion. She completed the ceremony alone, becoming the Fourth Princess of Prince Si's Mansion.

While others' weddings are filled with guests, she went to her new home alone.

Even the maids in the household looked at her with disdain, and the entire Fourth Prince's Manor was cold and deserted. Even dinner was the usual meal. This treatment of the Fourth Princess really made people feel heartbroken.

"Fourth Princess, according to regulations, you may not sleep tonight. You must keep vigil for the King until dawn. This old servant will be waiting at the door."

Feng Lingxi looked at the wet nurse of this Fourth Prince, who was also the nanny of the Feng Mansion. To have her guard the tomb on their wedding night was truly taking advantage of her.

"Miss..."

As soon as Xiaoli finished speaking, Grandma rushed forward and slapped her across the face, rebuking her, "Disrespectful girl! After marrying into this family, you should address me as 'Princess'. Don't you understand this basic etiquette"

Xiao Li covered her face, her eyes brimming with tears, quickly apologizing.

"Grandma, the servant knows her mistake and will not repeat it."

Feng Lingxi looked at the slap mark on Xiaoli's face, her cold eyes swept over the Fourth Prince's nanny. Was this a warning to her

"Zhao MaMa, this princess asks you, who is the master of the Fourth Prince's Residence now"

Zhao MaMa looked at her in surprise. Wasn't it said that the Fourth Miss of the General's Mansion was a foolish and incompetent fool What was with this fierce look

"It must be the Fourth Royal Consort, then."

Feng Lingxi slapped Zhao Mamu across the face with her hand, and coldly said, "Even when beating a dog, you look at its owner. When did it become your place, Zhao Mamu, to discipline my personal maidservant Was it the Emperor's order, or is this your own idea"

Zhao MaMa was slapped, quite angry, "Fourth Princess, this old servant is the Fourth Prince's wet nurse, even if the Fourth Prince treats this old servant, he should be polite."

Feng Lingxi, upon hearing her words, sneered and questioned, "You also know that I am the Fourth Princess Consort, not the Fourth Prince. If you love the Fourth Prince so much, why didn't you follow him to death when he died in battle That would have truly shown your loyalty, wouldn't it"

"Fourth Princess, you..."

Grandma Zhao was so angry her whole body trembled. Feng Lingxi retracted her gaze and looked around the room.

"Take down all the celebratory decorations from inside the house. In half an hour, have the spirit hall set up for this princess. This princess will go to the front hall to keep vigil for the Fourth Prince."

Feng Ling Xi's words caused Zhao Ma Ma's face to change drastically. Today was the Fourth Prince's big wedding day, and she actually wanted to replace it with a spirit hall If this got to the Emperor's ears, wouldn't she lose her life

"Fourth Princess, today is the joyous day of your and Fourth Prince's wedding. There is no need to set up a spirit tablet, especially since the seventh day has already passed..."

"Well then, just kneel and submit. This princess is tired and needs to sleep." Feng Lingxi said, then ordered Xiao Li, "Make up the bed."

Little Li glanced at Zhao Mama, then quickly went to make the bed. After all, her young mistress was the master of this Fourth Prince's mansion.

Zhao MaMa saw her like this, thinking of the old princess's instructions, and opened her mouth to say, "Since the fourth princess is unwilling to stay up all night, remember to get up early tomorrow morning to greet the old princess."

Feng Lingxi glanced at her, “Keeping vigil requires a spirit hall. If there isn't one, this Princess Consort will go to sleep and give you an incense stick’s time to consider.”

Wind Ling Xi began to take off her makeup. Zhao Mama glanced at her, "Fourth Princess Consort, get some rest early. Tomorrow morning, this old servant will come and pick you up."

Seeing Zhao Mama close the door and leave, Feng Lingxi walked to the bed, "It won't be easy for this Fourth Princess to get along here." Arriving just now, even a nurse like that is bullying her, let alone the old Princess.

"Your Highness, Xiaoli has troubled you."

Feng Ling Xi looked at the palm prints on her face and pulled her to her side, "Xiao Li, you remember this for me, from now on no one but me can hit you, do you know" time."Feng Lingxi's smile widened at the corner of her lips. It seemed that this time she was truly grateful to Tian Xiaomi. The charm of love was indeed great, enough to change a person.Feng Aotian...
