Chapter 1116: Ghost Saint Nation 77

outh, and Shutai's consort walked over to support her, her eyes full of concern. "Call Mother Concubine, he divorced you, Mother Concubine did not divorce you."Feng Ling Xi raised her eyes to meet Shu...Xiaoli hurriedly shook her head. Yexi continued, "The bride was kidnapped on her wedding day and has been missing ever since."

Dugu Cheng's smile froze instantly, looking at Ye Xi, "What do you mean The bride was kidnapped"

During the summer, rumors spread, most likely originating from an unknown source, claiming that it was the Queen who was responsible. On the day the bride was taken, a woman resembling the Queen in appearance abducted her. Moreover, on the same day, many people were killed. Now, the emperor of the desolate summer dynasty is furious and believes this to be the work of the Queen.

Xiaoli angrily stomped on Yexi's foot.

The Princess has been with us all along. This is clearly a frame-up! We don't even know when Prince Huangfu got married, how could he possibly have kidnapped the bride

The princess was already in a bad mood, and now that this matter had been brought up, her mood worsened even further.

Yexi lowered her head, "My subordinate is only worried that this matter will ferment and lead to a war between the two countries."

"How could you think it was me"

Feng Lingxi was truly brought to tears by this sudden accusation. She had難得 spent a peaceful month here, but now trouble had come knocking.

A woman with a similar build to hers, was this intentional Was she trying to make Arashma mistake her for someone else

"It seems there's a misunderstanding. You thought I was trying to stop Huangfu Qingyun from getting married You should know, Huangfu Qingyun has always been kind to you before. His sudden marriage now probably means they think you're unhappy."

Feng Lingxi stared at Dugu Cheng, her expression full of disbelief.

"I've always been very clear about my stance. I said I didn't like Huangfu Qingyun, so how could I possibly steal his bride Even if he dislikes me, it shouldn't be twisted this way, right"

Dugu City looked at Feng Lingxi, now the other party's meaning was like this.

Even if Feng Lingxi doesn't admit it, it doesn't matter. They don't need her belief at all; they only believe what they see with their own eyes.

"No, I have to go find Emperor Qingyun and clear things up. It wasn't me who did it. I can't admit it, nor can I let this spark a war between the two countries."

"Your Highness, don't even think about going. If you do go, they might just arrest you, and there wouldn't be any chance for them to explain things. Right now, they're convinced it was you who did it."

Little Li said with a huff, she was furious when she received this news, and she didn't want Ye Xi to tell the Princess because she was afraid the Princess would act impulsively.

Given the Duchess's personality, she would certainly go to Xia Chu Dynasty, and Xia Chu Dynasty would not believe a word the Duchess said at all.

"No explanation, let them say I did it"

Feng Lingxi rolled her eyes and looked at Dugu City, "Should I go or not"

"Hold your horses. I'll investigate the situation first. If it is indeed you, then going there now would be like walking into a trap."

Dugu Cheng's expression was solemn, "Don't be impulsive. Since someone deliberately chose a woman who looked like you to abduct Huangfu Qingyun's bride, it means they intentionally created a misunderstanding, making the Arah Summer Dynasty misunderstand that it was you who did it, thus achieving their goal."

Feng Ling calmed down and sorted out the relationships involved.

"You mean this was someone deliberately provoking a rift between me and Xia Chao"

"As you said before, the empress of this chaotic Summer Dynasty has never been fond of you. Now that Lady Huángfǔ Qīngyún is finally willing to marry into your family, and the bride was taken away, isn't it obvious that this is directed at you"

Dugu Cheng analyzed, "But who could this person be"

Wind Lingxi shook her head, the person who deliberately framed her and sowed discord between her and Emperor Fu Qingyun was still a woman. Who could it be

"Little Li, who told you this"

"My people told me, about ten days ago."

That is, the two days before the New Year.

Xiao Li added, noticing the confusion in the Queen's eyes, she was even more upset than the Queen. They had already sent the Yao clan to investigate, but no one found out who was responsible.

The princess had been staying at the palace for a while and had no contact with Crown Prince Huafu. Suddenly, this happened. It was obvious that it was intentional to frame her and ruin the relationship between Crown Prince Huafu and the princess.

"Looks like someone doesn't want me to do well."

Feng Lingxi took a deep breath. Why didn't Huangpu Qingyun tell her when he was getting married If she had known, she would have been happy for him and given him a gift. It would have been such a sweet surprise. But instead, the wedding happened quietly and she was even kidnapped on her way to celebrate.

“About this matter, Huangfu Qingyun’s side should have some clues. Don't worry too much for now, he knows it's not what you mean.”

He knew his emperor and empress didn't know, and since the empress had taken issue with me, they might not believe what Hou Qingyun said, and might even think I did it.

Dugu Cheng nodded, it seemed that Xier knew about the entanglements between her and Huangfu Qingyun.

"I'll investigate first. You write a letter to Huangfu Qingyun and ask about the situation."

"Okay."

Feng Lingxi watched as Dugu Cheng took Ye Xi away, then retracted her gaze. Xiao Li stepped forward, "Your Highness, there's something this servant wants to say but doesn't know if she should."

"Just say what you want, why bother hiding it even when you're in front of me"

Her heart was in turmoil now, Huangpu Qingyun's matter suddenly came up, involving her. If she didn't handle it well, she feared it would spark a war between the two nations.

"This servant wishes to remind Your Highness, the monthly payment has been delayed by ten days."

"Delayed"

Feng Lingxi frowned and quickly checked Li's pulse. There was no sign of pregnancy. She looked at Xiao Li.

"There is no pregnancy."

"This servant also found it strange. Logically speaking, the princess's monthly period is very punctual. This servant even thought that the princess was pregnant. With all the recent work helping to handle the Yao clan affair, this servant didn't notice. Yesterday, Empress Dowager Shu suddenly asked this servant, and only then did this servant remember the princess's upcoming menstrual cycle."

"Mother asked about you"

Xiao Li nodded, recalling Lady Shu's expression at the time, and reminded, “After I replied, Lady Shu seemed to have let out a breath of relief. I thought Lady Shu was relieved because the Princess was pregnant. But now that the Princess is not pregnant, could there be something wrong”

Feng Ling Xi carefully felt her own pulse and shook her head.

"I'm feeling fine, and everything seems to be in order."

"Then why is there no Moon Letter"

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li, her face full of confusion. She didn't know that Shu Taifei was her wet nurse, and that those medicines were for nourishing the body. She had sniffed them, and hadn't found anything wrong.

Maybe it's too soon, there's no pulse. Let's talk in a few days.

It has already been ten days since Yuexin's future arrived. Calculating the time, there should be a pulse by now. How is it that I can't feel one

Feng Lingxi frowned, feeling that nothing was wrong, yet something felt off.

"This consort, these past few days, please take care of your health. This servant will remind the Consort."

Feng Lingxi nodded, not taking it to heart. If she had really gotten the time wrong, a few days later would be normal. However, was she really going to have a child

Feng Ling Xi stroked her flat abdomen, lost in thought.

"Wan'er, just now grandma gave you something to show your mother." Feng Lingxi turned to retrieve the item. Wan'er glanced at her mother and bit her lip, clutching the object tightly in her arms.y remember this kindness and will surely repay it in the future."Dugu Cheng swept a cold glance, his tone carrying a hint of warning.“This king hopes that the General will do his duty well in the futu...
