Chapter 1253: War Drums Beat

was unwilling. He would rather have Yi Xuan like this for the rest of his life than let Dugu City take him away. He was afraid that he would never have another chance to see Yi Xuan again."General Fe..."Wan'er is still a child, you shouldn't be too strict with her."

Feng Lingxi didn't think there was anything wrong. After all this time with Luo Li and Wan'er, Luo Li already treated Wan'er like her own child in her heart. It was understandable to be a little spoiled, and besides, she thought Wan'er was growing up very well like this.

This girl is already smart, if she could have more experiences, then in the future, she would be able to get along well with the Yao people.

If it wasn't too extreme, Feng Lingxi thought she could accept it. But if they really trained Wan'er to be a proper lady of the house, she feared she wouldn't be able to accept it.

She didn't care about the future of the Yao clan, but she cared deeply about Wan'er's future. She allowed her to be clan leader, but she wouldn't allow her to become a puppet of the Yao clan.

Dugu Cheng looked at her with surprise, "Xi'er, what's wrong with you today" This attitude towards Luoli in the past wasn't like this. If Wan'er did something a little too much, she would say something. But today, how did it change

Feng Lingxi withdrew her gaze, meeting Dugu Cheng's puzzled look. Her eyes dimmed slightly. "I used to think that I could teach her with my own methods, but after what happened recently, I understand that the way of survival here is different from where I came from, so the educational approach also needs to change."

Dugu City stared at Feng Lingxi's face. Her expression was serious, without any hint of a joke. Why would Xi'er change her original intention

"Xier, actually, this king thinks your education is quite good. Being strict isn't necessarily a bad thing. Wan'er, at her young age, being clever is a good thing, but as you said, it's not right for her to play tricks..."

I didn't say her little schemes were right, but it depends on who they're aimed at.

She thought, if it weren't for her using this method to save herself when Wan'er was captured by the Ghost Saint Country, and making the elders of the Ghost Saint Country give up on keeping her, she wouldn't have been able to bring Wan'er back from the Ghost Saint Country.

"Xi'er, what you say makes sense. I'll listen to you."

"You also think I'm right"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City in surprise. She thought Dugu City would oppose her words, but she didn't expect him to agree.

"This is natural, Xi'er is right, in this world, the weak are prey to the strong, but one must also be able to bend and stretch. This king does so, let alone a child like Wan'er."

Taking a deep breath, Dugu City's eyes became much gentler.

"From now on, just tell me any thoughts you have. I will share your worries and we'll discuss them together."

"Okay."

Having received recognition from Dugu City, Feng Lingxi's mood improved considerably. It was late at night, and if there were no wars, she might consider giving Wan'er a younger brother or sister.

Linxi County

"Little General, another brother from the Eastern Patrol went missing last night."

"Lost again"

For three consecutive days, the soldiers on patrol at the eastern gate mysteriously disappeared in the dead of night. They vanished without a trace, and their whereabouts remained unknown even after a thorough search of the area surrounding the eastern gate. Not even a single body was found, as if they had simply evaporated into thin air. This chilling disappearance sent waves of fear and unease throughout the military camp.

"The last general led his men to investigate, and like the past two days, three people went missing this time."

"In three days, it's already five people."

Feng Yu was suffering from a severe headache. The terrain in this area wasn't complicated; it was just forests and mountains. There had never been anything like this during previous patrols, so why did this happen suddenly And for three days straight!

"Yu Mo, why don't I go to the east side tonight for a patrol I don't believe there are really ghosts in the east side! It must be someone causing trouble and deliberately making such a fuss to sow discord. Wait until tonight, I'll find that person and kill him."

Gu Liqi's vigor was palpable, having spent several months in the military camp with Feng Yumo. She shed any pretense of feminine restraint and became as one of the soldiers, mixing freely with them and considering herself a part of their ranks.

Feng Yu Mo heard that she was going to patrol and hurriedly stopped her.

"No unauthorized actions, captured by military law."

Feng Yu Mo's words made Gu Li pout in displeasure.

"I'm doing all this for the safety of the soldiers. Think about it, these soldiers are people too, and so am I. Why can they go but I can't"

Feng Yu Mo's handsome face sank when Gu Li questioned him.

"You're not a soldier in my camp. Don't run around without my orders, do you hear"

Gu Li snorted angrily and then ran away.

That damn Feng Yu Mo, she helped him out of the goodness of her heart, and he actually scorned her, saying she wasn't someone from the military camp. It's just too hateful! She treated him so well, and yet this is how he repaid her. She doesn't believe it! She went, and when Feng Yu Mo returned, he really had her punished by military law.

"You keep an eye on her, don't let her go alone to the east side of the mountain for patrol. I'll go find the master to discuss this."

After half a month, Feng Lingxi and Dugu City's army returned to Linxi County. Looking at this familiar place, this was their home. This Chen Wangfu, all the people here were familiar faces, there wasn't so much scheming.

"Welcome back to the manor, Lord Wang, Lady Wang, and Miss Wan."

Zhang You received the news and went out to greet them. The servants of the Chen Wang's Mansion also came to help.

"Xiao Li, and Ye Xi, help me tidy up this place."

Dugu Cheng instructed, then turned to Feng Lingxi, "Lingxi, this king will go to the military camp for a while and be back later. Elder and Dr. Li, you take care of them."

Feng Lingxi responded and watched as Dugu Cheng rode away, hurriedly calling to Ye Xi, "You follow him, we'll handle things here."

"Hard work, Your Highness."

Ye Xi was naturally inseparable from Dugu Cheng's side as his personal guard. These few days, the king's heart has been restless, worrying that there might be changes here. When he returned, he would naturally go to the military camp to have a look.

Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li and Li Wu Yan, "Clan Chief, Ayan, are you staying in the Prince's Mansion or going back"

"If the Princess Consort of Chen doesn't mind, I'd like to stay in this Prince's Mansion, so it's convenient for me to teach Wan'er martial arts."

Leaving the room, Feng Lingxi had nothing much to say. Anyway, there were no secrets in this palace; letting them stay wouldn't hurt.

"Butler, please arrange for the two distinguished guests to be settled."

Zhang You responded, hurriedly making a gesture to invite Luo Li and Li Wu Yan. "Please follow me, both of you."

Luo Li bent down and picked up Wan'er, "Come on, take your master to your house."

Feng Lingxi watched them go in, her right eyelid twitching nonstop. She didn't know why, but returning here, a sense of unease crept over her. She felt that something was about to happen.

As soon as Dugongcheng entered the camp, someone immediately stepped forward to report.

"This subordinate pays respects to the Lord. My Lord, something has happened."

Hearing of the incident, Dugu Cheng's handsome face darkened. "Where is Feng Yu Mo"

"The Wind Xiaojiang has been missing for three days. Four days ago, Guli girl went to the east face of the mountain without telling Xiaojiang, and disappeared. Afterwards, Wind Xiaojiang took a team of troops to patrol the east face of the mountain, and also disappeared."

Dugu City walked into the military camp, and General Li hurried over upon hearing the sound, "The last general greets Your Highness."

"General Li, please tell this king in detail about the disappearance of Eastern Face. Did Feather and Ink look for you before they vanished"

General Li hurriedly took out a letter and handed it to Dugu City, "This was given to me by Yu Mo before he went to inspect the eastern mountains. He asked me to hand it over to Your Highness."tepped forward and respectfully asked.The Six Elders and Eight Elders, hearing this, were startled.Feng Ling Xi has truly become the Saint Lord now. She definitely won't let them off easy."Those who b...
