rning 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 c...“Dugu City’s mother”

Lu Nian was stunned, seeing Feng Lingxi nod. Her mind buzzed, "You mean your mother-in-law, the current Empress Dowager of the Dawan Dynasty, wants to kill you"

"Yes."

These assassins' identities are right here, who else could it be besides the Empress Dowager

It's not hard to guess that he only wanted to kill her, not hurt the child.

Lu Nian was dumbfounded, "How is this possible Why would she do this Wasn't she good to you Don't you have some misunderstanding about her"

If Dugu Cheng knew that it was the Empress Dowager who sent someone to kill Xi'er, what would he think Would the Empress Dowager really not want Xi'er and Dugu Cheng to be together

But Dugu City didn't say it that way.

Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian's disbelief in her eyes and coldly mocked, "Don't you know that people can change"

In the beginning, Dugu City also said that he would not disappoint her in this life, but in the end, didn't he still betray her No matter what Lu Nian said about Dugu City's hardships, the result was right there. The facts speak louder than words.

Lu Nian looked at the coldness in his sister's eyes and fell silent.

These years, he originally thought he was helping Dugu City and joined forces with him to take his sister away, all for her own good. But now, seeing this, Lu Nian realized for the first time that he had been wrong, terribly wrong.

"Sister, I'm sorry. It was my fault for imposing my thoughts on you. I thought I was doing it for your own good, but in the end, I didn't understand you and ended up hurting you without you even realizing it."

Windling looked at Lu Nian's self-blaming eyes and said faintly, "Forget it, things have passed. Don't mention it again in the future."

Lu Nian responded, "Get some rest early. I'll arrange everything and set off immediately."

Watching Lu Nian's leaving figure, Feng Lingxi's eyes dimmed. Thinking about what happened today, her gaze couldn't help but turn cold.

No matter who, if they want her life, she won't let them succeed.

Feng Lingxi got up and walked to Wan'er's bedside. Looking at Wan'er's pale and bloodless face, she took a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat from Wan'er's forehead. She leaned forward, her gaze falling on Wan'er's injured arm, covered her with the quilt, and walked out of the room.

Lu Nian returned to her own room, watching Feng Siyu and Feng Siqi, the siblings, playing happily inside. Because Wan'er was injured, Feng Lingxi took her with him, so these two siblings followed him too, without any reluctance.

"Si Yu Si Qi."

The siblings immediately stopped and ran to Lu Nian's front, "Big Uncle, has my mother slept yet, how is elder sister's injury"

"Waner is asleep, your mother hasn't slept. She scolded me."

Lu Nian sighed, poured herself a glass of water, and watched the siblings. She didn't seem surprised at all.

"Si Yu Si Qi, if your father came to you and asked for your forgiveness, would you forgive him"

"Mom said we can acknowledge him or not, it's up to us. She said we have the right to choose whether to acknowledge him or not."

Feng Siyu said seriously, looking at Lu Nian's puzzled expression, he added, "But we won't recognize him. Who let him abandon my mother and marry another woman."

"Ai!" Lu Nian sighed, not knowing what to say.

The misunderstanding between Dugu City and Xi'er grew larger and larger. There were many women in the Chen Wangfu backyard, he said that Dugu City had never touched them. Besides believing him, who would believe that Dugu City had never touched them

"Uncle, we're going to sleep." Siyu and Siqi tucked in their blankets and hurried to bed. The siblings exchanged a glance, understanding each other perfectly without needing to speak. They obediently fell asleep.

News of Feng Lingxi's entry into the Great Yuan Dynasty quickly spread throughout the martial arts world. Every day, there were rumors about Feng Lingxi, and Tianxiang Building was no exception. However, those who wanted to buy Feng Lingxi's life were still around. With the protection of the Lu family, they had been dealt with cleanly before they could even meet Feng Lingxi.

Feng Lingxi, following the address Feng Aotian gave her, journeyed to her grandfather's hometown, Mingde Town. It took her nearly a month, with the scorching heat delaying her progress considerably.

During the journey, Tao Su's escorting turned out to be quite beneficial for his relationship with Lu Nian. They became close, addressing each other as brothers, and he treated Feng Lingxi like his own younger sister, taking care of her in every way possible. This made the trip much less stressful for Feng Lingxi.

"We'll arrive tomorrow. After entering the city, let's find an inn to stay in first."

Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, as soon as she thought about seeing her grandfather soon, Feng Lingxi was so excited that she couldn't contain herself, wishing she could go see him right away.

"My lady, I just heard from a reliable source that General Zhen Guo is at Mingde Zheng. Your uncle Yi Xuan and his wife also came with him on this trip."

Su Yue reported back. Feng Lingxi and the others were having a meal at an inn. Upon hearing Su Yue's words, it wasn't Feng Lingxi who reacted the most, but Lu Nian by her side.

"Are you sure it's Feng Yixuan and Tian Xiaomi"

The Generalissimo has arrived with his family this time, but the old man seems to be in poor health and is always looking for a doctor.

Feng Lingxi heard that her grandfather was unwell and reacted immediately, saying, "Su Yue, go find out what's going on with my grandfather."

"Mother, why don't I and Su Yue go to Grandfather's estate first to have a look, then return to report to Mother, alright"

Feng Lingxi hesitated. If she didn't go, what would happen if her grandfather found out

"Maybe I should go scout the situation. As a stranger here, it'll be easier for me to find out things than for you."

Tao Su looked at Feng Ling Xi, saw her nod, and got up to leave.

"Mother, don't you want to meet Grandfather Feng"

Wan'er voiced her doubts, actually, Old Master Feng was a pretty good person.

"Wan'er, in the five years since your mother passed away, has he come to see you"

"Is it Master Feng's grandfather that Mother is talking about" Wan'er asked. Seeing her mother nod, a brilliant smile bloomed on Wan'er's face, and when she mentioned Feng Aotian, her eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Of course, Grandpa Feng always comes to visit whenever he's at our place. He'll see Wan'er and bring her some snacks and toys. He also tells Wan'er stories about her mother. He says the thing he regrets most is letting her mother down. These years, he's always wanted to make it up to her, but he never had the chance."

Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes sank slightly. It turned out that Feng Aotien had told her the truth back then, he really wanted to make amends with her.

But what use is it to make amends, she isn't his daughter and he has no obligation to her.

"Wan'er, how many grandfathers do we have"

Feng Siqi tilted her head, biting on the large meat bun in her hand. Her bright, watery eyes were full of confusion. After coming down the mountain, she discovered that she had many grandfathers, all over the world.

“Feng’s grandfather is your mother’s stepfather. Your mother and he have long severed their father-daughter relationship, but later on, he treated your mother very well. And his father, who is also your mother’s grandfather, was extremely kind to your mother. So this time when he fell seriously ill, your mother wanted to bring you all back to see him so that he could see you.”

"Mother, after seeing Grandfather, do we still have to go back to the Chen Wangfu" How could she possibly be with him For every word she spoke, he would retort with ten."Everyone's gone, what are you looking at"Dugu Cheng hurriedly withdrew his gaze and hurried to his mother's side...
