nant…"I'll go back after taking the medicine, won't get pregnant."Lu Zhe kept soothing Luo Xue, looking at her pitiful appearance with helpless eyes."Don't forget, the reason we have today is all than..."Death by poisoning"

Feng Lingxi was shocked, seeing Ye Xi nod. She couldn't believe it, over a dozen people had all died from the poison.

When the subordinates and General Li arrived, the person was already dead.

"Go take a look."

Du Gu Cheng and Feng Ling Xi hurried to the prison, looking at the dozen or so corpses laid out there. Feng Ling Xi stepped forward to examine them, Xiao Li following behind and saying, "The time of death is consistent, calculated to be an hour ago, that is, when we finished talking."

"How could this be"

Last night, there was no suicide by poison on the spot. Instead, they asked if they had all committed suicide before. That's too weird.

Feng Ling xi carefully examined their bodies, as Xiao Li had said, the timing matched perfectly.

"Just bury them all."

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "That's it for this matter."

"Your Majesty, shall we not investigate further"

General Li hurriedly asked, his eyes filled with worry, "The spies outside the city haven't been caught yet."

"Master Zhang has already gone to handle it, and we should hear from him soon." As Zhang Baiwen said, their every move with Dugu City was being watched. It was impossible to remain unknown.

These people are dead, the traitors outside the city, they probably won't be able to do anything.

As expected, an hour later, Zhang Baiwen sent word that dozens of corpses had been found outside the city. All had committed suicide by poisoning, and they were all from Empress Cen's faction. The poison they used was the same as that used by the informants in the prison.

Inside the county magistrate's hall, a heavy snowstorm raged outside, but the atmosphere within was thick with tension.

They investigated the traitor, and all those captured committed suicide by poison. Feng Lingxi just wanted to know who among them was actually the traitor.

"Sister, this matter is due to Yumo's incompetence. I..."

It's none of your business.

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi and Xiaoli, their faces weren't any better either. This mission had failed, and they hadn't expected it to turn out this way. They were all blaming themselves.

"Little Li, have Sun Cheng take them down the mountain."

"Xier, what did you ask Sun Cheng to come here for"

They went to the Yao tribe before, and now they're bringing them back. Could it be that they have another plan involving explosives

I want them to help me with something.

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and turned to General Li, "Sun Cheng is also someone brought up by General Li. Let him go down the mountain to help General Li with some matters. Today's people behind us will appear very soon."

"Did the Queen know who it was"

General Li hastily asked, "I will bring my men to arrest him."

"Coming towards me."

Feng Lingxi looked at General Li, “I don’t know who it is, but I’m sure they’re coming for me.”

Du Gucheng frowned. Xi'er mentioned Sun Cheng, and said he was coming for her. Could it really be related to the explosives

"Isn't the Princess in danger" General Li said, his eyes full of worry. Feng Lingxi shook her head. "Don't worry, I can handle it."

"Xiao Li, Yu Mo, you guys come with me for a trip."

Dugu Cheng watched Feng Lingxi about to leave, and reminded her, "Come back soon."

Feng Lingxi nodded and took them out. General Li hurried to ask, "Your Highness, you're not accompanying the Princess What if the Princess encounters danger on the way"

"Xier has her own people protecting her, and besides, what could possibly happen when she goes to see Luoli"

General Li finally let out a breath. Dugu Cheng looked at General Li, "Accompany this king to the military camp."

As Dugu City said, Feng Lingxi went to find Luoli. Today's events were indeed strange, and Feng Lingxi was a little confused and wanted to ask Luoli for advice.

When Fenglingxi appeared, Luo Li was not as happy as she was.

“Don't look at me like that, I didn't come here to cause you trouble.”

Feng Lingxi walked to Luo Li's side and sat down, telling her about what happened today. Luo Li listened without a word.

What do you think about this

"Nature is seen with the eyes."

Luo Li twirled the teacup in her hand, "Who do you suspect"

"There's a traitor by Du Gucheng's side." Feng Lingxi paused, "To be precise, there's a traitor within Linxi County city."

"And this person is also familiar with you and Dugu City"

Luoli raised an eyebrow and questioned Feng Lingxi with a look of suspicion.

"Aren't you underestimating their capabilities Even if they committed suicide by poisoning, and even if someone did it, you have no evidence right now. You can only pretend to know nothing, keep things quiet, and let it drop, understand"

"I just wanted to tell you all that, and I don't intend to investigate further."

Feng Lingxi furrowed her brow. Dugu City was truly not someone who could stand aloof from the world's affairs.

He’s afraid that if he's willing to give up everything and become an ordinary person, no one will let him go.

His life was destined to be anything but ordinary.

"Actually, it's possible he came for you." Li Wuyan spoke, looking at Feng Lingxi's worried eyes. "Although the imperial court is wary of Duke Gu's presence here guarding the border, he hasn't been summoned back to the capital. You, however, are different. When you left the capital, you were still the Sacred Master of Yao Clan, but now, you have reconciled with Duke Gu. If Empress Cen knew this, what do you think she would do"

"You mean these people were all dealt with by Empress Cen's orders"

Li Wuyan nodded and sipped his tea.

Of course, she wouldn't leave any clues for you to investigate and ruin her plans. If I'm not mistaken, Empress Cen dealt with these people simply to protect those hiding even deeper.

Li Wuyan's analysis was spot on, looking at Feng Lingxi.

"Don't bother looking, there's no end to it."

"Knowing it can't be finished, and there's no intention of continuing to search."

Li Wuyan responded with a nod and took another sip of tea.

"You're staying back at the county office now. We don't have anything to do here with Luo Li, so we're planning to head back in a few days."

"Are you leaving"

Jian Li Wu Yan nodded, Feng Ling Xi's eyes were full of reluctance. She understood that Luo Li had to leave, but wasn't Li Wu Yan going somewhere else Why did he have to leave too

"Aiyan, why don't you stay in Linxi County I'll buy you a house..."

Li Wuyan cut her off. "You don't have to do that. I'm used to being free and independent. I want to go for a walk, Luo Li has his own things to do, and I have mine too."

But...

Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li, seeing him holding tea and drinking it without any intention of keeping her. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Isn't she very unconcerned about this Li Wu-yan Why doesn't anyone try to keep him

"We've all made our decision on this matter, so please don't try to persuade us any further. We hope you can do well as the Fourth Princess Consort."

"Don't forget, you are the Holy Lord of the Yao Clan. I don't want to come find you again."

Luo Li smiled at Feng Lingxi and said, “Otherwise, next time we meet, you'll have to go with me to the Ghost Saint Kingdom to see those old geezers.”

When it came to the Ghost Saint Country, Feng Lingxi thought of her mother's departure. She still couldn't help but voice her worries, "Clan Chief, if you see my mother, tell her that I'm waiting for her in Yao Clan. When she returns, the position of Saint Lord will always be hers."

"She wouldn't care about the position of Holy Lord." It was as if he didn't care about his chieftain identity at all. However, he couldn't tell her the truth just yet.d poisoning, so she needs to take good care of herself and rest properly."My Lord."Ye Xi shouted, Xiao Li held a basin of hot water and went in to wash Feng Lingxi's body."Xier, you rest for a while,...
