Chapter 1456: War Clouds Gather (277)
ty-five or six, while the two burly men seemed to be in their thirties, perhaps even older.This title, Feng Lingxi felt a bit more curious about the young scholar in front of her."Big Boss."Wind Lingx..."Is your master male or female How old is he/she"
Lu Nian hurriedly asked, thinking back to what they had said before about a pair of children appearing beside their sister. Considering the time, if they brought them back now and had just given birth, the ages of these two children would be very close.
"He's older than your father."
Feng Lingxi rolled her eyes. From Lu Nian's gaze, she immediately understood what he meant. She felt insulted. Couldn't he just think simply This wasn't ancient times anymore. What was going on in his head
Lu Nian let out a breath of relief, but when she met Feng Lingxi's cold and mocking gaze, she gave an awkward smile.
"Am I not worried about you If I wasn't afraid that you'd be so angry with Li that you'd just find some random man to live with, would I be this anxious"
"In your dreams, I'm not that stupid."
Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian, "It's you, since you came back, you've been staring at me and questioning me. What do you mean"
"I'm worried about you, I'm afraid you'll get married without a word."
Lu Nian said this was true. He could slowly explain to Du Gu Cheng and Feng Ling Xi, but right now the most important thing was to know if she liked anyone, if she had married another man.
"Before I arrived, wasn't the Crown Prince here to propose Didn't you investigate properly before allowing such a distinguished Crown Prince to come to our home for a proposal Aren't you afraid that I am already married"
Lu Nian awkwardly smiled, "Sister, don't be angry, I'm just asking because I heard the news, right"
Feng Lingxi frowned, "What news"
Before I came back, I heard that someone in Xiguo saw you, and they said you were with a man and two children. That's why I wanted to know if you got married these past five years.
Feng Ling xi hurriedly pulled Lu Nian aside. "I have a question for you, why did Tianxianglou find me"
Lu Nian was taken aback by Feng Lingxi's attitude. Her sudden change in expression made him very nervous, like he had done something wrong.
"Tianxiang Lou looking for you certainly means Dugu City. You know about his affairs after you disappeared, don't you"
"What's he up to"
Feng Lingxi frowned, looking at Lu Nian's puzzled gaze, feeling a bit agitated.
"I have been in Xigu Country for five years. It has only been a short time since I came down the mountain, how would I know what's going on over there The reason you're looking for me is something I heard at an inn."
Lu Nian sighed, "After you disappeared, I gave him a good scolding and beat him half to death. He fell ill and couldn't recover. All his military power was handed over to the court, and he returned to Beijing to live in Chen Wangfu, stripped of all his real power, except for the title of Chen Wang. He had nothing left."
"Isn't that a good thing This way, he can spend his days with his new princess in the capital. There's nothing wrong with that,"
Upon hearing this news, Feng Lingxi was truly shocked. How could all of Dugu City's military power be handed over to the court She didn't know what surrendering military power meant
She left, and Emperor Yuan Zhao spared his life. What's the difference between that and killing him
When did Dugu City become so foolish
Indeed, he now lives such a life every day. After you disappeared, he turned white overnight, fell into depression, and made Tianxiang Building secretly search for you. He has never given up in five years.
Feng Ling Xi's body trembled, she raised her eyes to look at Lu Nian, unable to believe what she had heard.
"You said he went gray overnight, and he fell into depression Why would he be depressed"
They had already divorced, why would he still look for her, why would he go gray overnight This couldn't be for her. Dugu City said very clearly that he liked Luo Qin'yi, how could he possibly turn gray for her overnight.
"Are you still worried about him"
Lu Nian looked at his younger sister. If she was still worried, he would tell her the truth. That way, he could unravel the knot in her heart that had been there for so many years and also help Du Gu Cheng.
"Just tell me, isn't he seeing someone new He spent the night with her and has nothing to do with me."
Because you disappeared, no small stream existed. Dugu City feared you would vanish in his world. He searched the entire world but found no trace of you. You can't comprehend the fear when someone most important to your life disappears without a word. That's exactly how Dugu City felt.
"Nonsense."
Feng Lingxi looked unconvinced, "He already has Luo Qin'yi, how could he possibly be afraid of losing me It was him who drove me away in the first place, he didn't even want to see me. I don't believe a single word you say."
Five years have passed, but mentioning Dugu City still makes her angry.
Feng Lingxi slowly closed her eyes, her emotions were very excited. She still couldn't face the matter of Dugucheng without any feeling. This man was her choice. At first, she wanted to spend her life with him, but in the end, he betrayed her.
Lu Nian hurriedly soothed Feng Lingxi, watching her excitement and dared not continue. These things that had happened over the years, it seemed she truly knew nothing about them.
"If you don't love someone, how can you get angry"
Feng Lingxi raised her eyes to meet Lu Nian's serious face and stood up. "If you still want to talk about him, then there's nothing left for us to say." A lump of anger stuck in her chest, her mind filled with everything Lu Nian had just said to her.
She had also thought about why Duguo Cheng would do this, but she and Luo Qin Yi were sleeping together. She couldn't convince herself, just this one thing, she couldn't accept it, she wouldn't agree to share a husband with another woman.
"Okay, I won't talk about him. Let's talk about your younger brother Feng Yu Mo, Feng Yi Xuan."
How are they
Feng Lingxi's attitude instantly changed, looking at Lu Nian with eyes full of worry. Seeing that Lu Nian remained silent for a long time, she became anxious.
"Are they alright"
With Dugu City's military power being taken back, Yu Mo's temperament would definitely not stay in the army camp. I also wonder if Feng Aotian took him back to the Feng family. After all, Yu Mo is his son. If Yu Mo could return to the Feng family, it would be a proof of his abilities.
"Feng Yu Mo left after learning you had disappeared. His whereabouts are rarely heard of in the martial arts world, possibly to avoid letting Dugu City know his location, fearing that he might be tracked down to find you."
"This silly child of mine, he actually came to find me In five years, he just wasted his time like this"
Feng Lingxi clenched her fists, feeling indignant for Feng Yumo. That stinky boy still hadn't listened to her and stayed in the military camp as his little general.
"If he weren't your brother, I would think he was your secret lover. He's so naive."
Feng Lingxi glared at Lu Nian, "Can you stop talking nonsense It makes it seem like everyone has a relationship with me." Just now Tao Su was like this, and now even Feng Yumo is saying things like that. Lu Nian's tone really made Feng Lingxi very unhappy.
If Feng Lingxi didn't know about their blood relation, she would have suspected that he thought all the men in the world had affairs.
Taking a deep breath, Feng Lingxi refused to let herself get angry, lest it be embarrassing. After all, they were still at the Lu Residence.
"Lu Nian hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean what I just said. Don't be angry." Feng Ling Xi gave him a white look, "If you want to say it, just say it. If you don't want to say it, don't." He always used this trick, it wasn't interesting at all.Lu Nian saw Feng Ling, and became...
