n. This servant is fine."Seeing her so restrained, the Crown Princess took her hand and, changing her attitude from just moments ago, led her to a gazebo nearby and sat down.Feng Ling Xi, I have somet...Knowing all this, Feng Lingxi tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep. She kept thinking about the words that Du Gucheng had spoken to her in Mingde Town. Now that she thought about it, she realized that she truly didn't understand him at all.

Feng Lingxi soon received the imperial decree from the Empress Dowager, summoning her to the palace for an audience.

Seeing the palace maids and eunuchs come to pick her up, Feng Lingxi suddenly found it amusing. This Empress was really quick, wasn't she Did she think she could still influence her

"Miss Feng Si, the Empress Dowager said, please bring all three young ladies into the palace to see her."

Grandma's address surprised everyone present. This clearly distanced Feng Lingxi and Dugu City's relationship, separating them as if they were divorced. How could she, the former daughter-in-law of the Empress Dowager, acknowledge these three children but not recognize Feng Lingxi, her daughter-in-law Wasn't this clearly asking her to bring the children to the palace Such a foolish thing, Feng Lingxi felt that she wasn't stupid enough to do that.

"You go back and tell the Empress Dowager that I have something to attend to today and cannot enter the palace."

"By the Empress Dowager's imperial decree, you dare defy her"

"Grandmother, with a furious voice, rebuked. The Imperial Guards behind her rushed forward immediately. Lu Nian stepped out, glanced at these Imperial Guards, and said faintly, 'Isn't it just a trip to the palace I'll accompany you. Could this Great Yuan Dynasty's imperial palace possibly eat you What are you afraid of'"

"I have something to do today."

Feng Lingxi saw Lu Nian winking at her, not wanting to bring the child into the palace. If she entered the palace, she wouldn't be able to take the child out again.

I don't want to enter the palace either.

Wan'er stepped forward, looking at the granny beside the Empress Dowager. She recognized this person; she absolutely detested her. This person had always been unkind to Wan'er and was no good person at all.

"Mother, Wan'er doesn't want to enter the palace."

"Mother, Siqi and Siyu don't want to enter the palace either," Feng Siqi and Feng Siyu chimed in, looking at those eunuchs and maidservants. Feng Siqi and Feng Siyu hid behind Feng Lingxi, glaring at them with displeasure.

"Since you don't want to, then we won't go to the palace."

Lu Nian looked at the children and then turned to Grandma, saying, "Grandma, please go back. This time, my younger sister came to Daming Dynasty to handle business. She will leave after she's done, and won't bother Prince Chen. Please tell Empress Dowager that so she can rest assured."

Grandma glanced at Feng Lingxi, but her attitude towards Lu Nian was very respectful.

"Young Master Lu, she is Miss Feng Si. These three children are from the Prince Chen's Mansion and should return to the palace with this old slave to meet the Empress Dowager."

"Who said we belong to the Chen Wangfu We belong to our mother, and have nothing to do with the Chen Wangfu."

Feng Siyu's handsome little face was instantly filled with anger, glaring at his grandmother, "I am surnamed Feng, I am my mother's."

"That's exactly it. We aren't from the Chen Wangfu."

Feng Siqi agreed. Looking at the grandmother's eyes on them, they were not friendly at all. That empress dowager definitely wasn't a good person.

"The two young masters, you are the princess and young master of the King of Chen. How can you say such things You are not surnamed Feng, but surnamed Dugu..."

Grandma corrected, the Empress Dowager was right. Feng Lingxi is precisely trying to prevent the prince's children from returning to the Wangfu. Her intentions are truly vicious, making them follow her surname. No wonder she is so arrogant this time, wanting to use the children to deceive the Prince.

"What little prince and princess"

Feng Ling Xi's cold eyes glared at Grandma, "Grandma, are you trying to steal my child"

"Miss Feng Si, the slave has never said that she wants to steal your child. She only asks you to bring the child into the palace. The Empress Dowager wants to see you."

Feng Lingxi let out a cold snort. "If the Empress wants to see me, why bring my child along"

"What else could it be for They must have their eyes on Siyu. What could she possibly do The Crown Prince has no heir, so they probably want to take Siyu away," Wan'er stepped forward, glaring at the old nanny, "This princess will go back with you, but they don't deserve to."

After Wan'er finished speaking, she turned to look at Feng Lingxi.

"Mother, I'm going into the palace. You don't have to come with me. She just wants to keep Siyu and Siqi in the palace. These years, she hasn't treated me as her granddaughter. Anyway, she won't do anything to me. I'll go see her."

Even if the Empress Dowager disliked Wan'er, she wouldn't dare to do anything to her. After all, she still had to give Luoli some face. Luoli was the chieftain of the Yao tribe, Wan'er's master, and Wan'er was also the heir chosen by the Yao tribe. Just based on this identity, the Empress Dowager wouldn't dare to touch Wan'er.

"Princess Wan, the Empress Dowager is letting you and Miss Si accompany two other young ladies into the palace..."

“Are you deaf Didn’t you hear what this mistress said” Wan'er interrupted sharply, walking up to the old woman and demanding, “This mistress said it, I enter the palace, they are not allowed to enter. This mistress will explain it clearly to the empress dowager herself.”

"Mother, Sister Wan'er is so frightening."

This was the first time Feng Siqi had ever seen Wan'er like this, so fierce. Her sharp gaze and imposing manner were completely different from usual, making Feng Lingxi feel distressed. At such a young age, she was already caught up in the intrigues of the palace.

Haven't you been frequently summoned to the palace for lectures these years, Wan'er

Grandma stared at Wan'er's fierce gaze, her eyes landing on Feng Lingxi. "Miss Feng Si, the Empress Dowager..."

"Grandma, can't you hear"

Wǎn'er got angry and, followed by her Sùyuè, stepped forward and stopped the grandmother in front of her. Her tone was warning: "Grandmother, my mistress is angry."

Grandma saw the wind whipping around but didn't say a word. Unwillingly, she retracted her gaze and bowed to Wan'er. "Please, Miss Wan."

"Mother, you needn't worry about palace affairs, just attend to your own matters. I'll be back soon."

Wan'er was so considerate that it made Feng Lingxi feel distressed. He quickly pulled Wan'er aside and whispered, "Wan'er, will the Empress Dowager make things difficult for you"

"No, she has to give my master face."

What Wan'er said was straightforward. Luoli had once told her that she needn't consider anyone else because she was the future leader of the Yao clan. Anyone who dared disrespect her would be held accountable by the Yao clan to the fullest extent, which is how Wan'er developed her domineering personality today.

Feng Lingxi glanced at her grandmother and whispered, "Then go. Tell the Empress Dowager that when I return, don't waste time on me, and don't even think about getting any benefit from me."

"Wan'er understands, Wan'er will enter the palace first."

Waner brought along Su Yue. When the grandmother wanted to say something more, Waner glared at her, so she had no choice but to follow.

"Sister Wan'er is so amazing!"

Feng Siqi looked at the departing team with admiration, “If I were them, I wouldn’t dare to be so fierce.”

"As her elder sister grew up in such a place, she is naturally different from us. Moreover, she will be the future chieftain." Feng Lingxi's heart clenched at the mention of the chieftain. She had to speed up; she couldn't let the Yao tribe succeed. Her Wan'er couldn't become a sacrifice.

Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian, "I'm going to the General's Mansion now, would you like to come with me"

I was thinking of going alone, but now that the Empress Dowager has her eyes on her, I'm afraid she won't be back for long and will come looking for her again. She needs to get answers from Feng Yu Xi quickly.rt Longgui. She left the palace to pray for me."Dugu Yan grabbed Feng Linglong's hand, her eyes full of tenderness.
