k him was no easy feat."As for helping you, Your Highness, this King would be delighted to do so. Is there anything else you need Just speak your mind."Five large water tanks and five large buckets,...Mo Huilan saw Feng Lingxi laugh, and she breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled faintly, her dimple at the corner of her mouth was very charming, "Don't misunderstand me and the Fourth Prince."

"I'm not that petty." What if there was a ambiguous relationship Who doesn't have a few crushes when they were young As for Dugu City, he truly never had any girls who liked him. Even if there were, he wouldn't like them.

"The Fourth Princess sat down and spoke."

Mo Huilan hurriedly asked her maidservant to offer tea. Seeing Feng Lingxi's friendly attitude towards her, she felt much more at ease.

"This time, I invited Fourth Princess here because I truly wanted her to take a look at my body. It's been three months since I entered the palace, and I still haven't conceived. I wanted to ask Fourth Princess if there's something wrong with my body"

Feng Lingxi frowned slightly, looking at Mo Huilan's expectant eyes. Feng Lingxi stretched out her hand, and Mo Huilan happily reached out to meet it. After feeling her pulse, Feng Lingxi asked, "Has Empress Lan let the imperial physicians see you"

"I'm not feeling well," Mo Huilan smiled politely. "Because my time in the palace is short, I haven't asked for a royal physician to see me yet. Otherwise, it would give rise to gossip."

Feng Lingxi nodded, "My body is fine. It's probably just that the time is too short. After some time, there will be a pregnancy."

Thank you, Fourth Royal Princess.

Mo Huilan's face beamed with joy, she subconsciously touched her abdomen as if a child was already growing inside. Feng Lingxi watched her reaction and suddenly felt curious, could it be that the noble concubine Mo truly had fallen for Dugu Yan

In this palace, how many women wouldn't want to become pregnant with a dragon child But who doesn't know that even if they get pregnant, it's not guaranteed they'll be able to give birth.

"Your Majesty, the Orchid Fairy is too kind."

The maidservant served tea. Feng Lingxi held the teacup and sipped lightly, pondering how to get closer to Lanfei.

The Lan Fei appeared to be lacking in ambition, but after all, she was the daughter of the Pingbei King. She had entered the palace and received favor. Since she dared to challenge the Empress, she must have a strong enough backing to support her arrogance.

"Your Highness, the Emperor has bestowed upon me many precious ginseng recently. I have quite a few extras. Seeing you so frail, why not take two back to nourish your body"

"Mo Huilan spoke, her eyes earnest, asking with the utmost care."

"How can this be Since it was bestowed by the Emperor upon Lady Lan, Lady Lan should keep it for herself."

"But I don't need that much either."

Mo Huilan hurriedly beckoned her maidservant to bring up the ginseng that had been prepared. Feng Lingxi looked at the ginseng in the box, thanked her, and let Xiaoli take it.

Then many thanks, Lady Lan.

Feng Lingxi smiled slightly, "I just returned to the capital and didn't bring much with me. I'll make up for it next time."

Mo Huilan quickly waved her hand, "Your Highness, you're too kind. I don't have any friends in the capital. If Your Highness wouldn't mind, please come visit my Zhaoyang Palace often. That would make me very happy."

If it's convenient, I'll come often.

Since the Imperial Concubine Lan had a mind to befriend her, there was no reason for her to let go of such a good consort. Moreover, now that Feng Yu Xi had been brought down, having a capable helper in the palace would also be beneficial to her.

Mo Huilan's face was filled with joy. Feng Lingxi saw that she stopped talking and stood up, saying, "Princess Lan, it's getting late. If there's nothing else, I should head back. Staying here too long might make the Empress suspicious."

"How did Your Majesty know you were here"

The maidservant of Lan Fei hurriedly said, “My Lady, just now when I was looking for the Fourth Princess, Empress Dowager came to take her away.”

Mo Huilan's face instantly fell. "The Empress really wants to steal everything from me,"

Feng Lingxi's eyes flickered slightly, she wanted to snatch everything from him. It seems that Lan Fei and Yu Xi really don't get along.

"Why should I always give in to her If she dares to steal someone from me again, you tell me."

Mo Huilan instructed the maidservant, and then said to Feng Lingxi, "Fourth Princess, you should go back first. Thank you for coming to see me."

"Your Majesty, the Orchid Fairy is too kind. Then I will take my leave."

Mo Huilan nodded and sent Feng Lingxi out of Zhaoyang Palace. Watching her leave, she asked, "Xiang'er, what do you think of this Fourth Princess Can she really help me"

"My Lady, Lan Fei thinks that the Fourth Princess is quite alright. At least her relationship with the Empress is bad, just like ours. This servant has investigated, and the entire capital knows that the Fourth Princess and the Empress have a bad relationship. Moreover, back then, the Empress tried to push the Fourth Princess off a cliff in order to become a Noble Consort, nearly killing her."

Mo Huilan nodded. "That's good, I was afraid we had the wrong person."

Feng Lingxi took Xiao Li out of Zhaoyang Palace. Thinking that they would pass through the Imperial Garden soon, she wondered if Yu Xi was still waiting for her there. It had only been a stick of incense since the rain started.

As they approached the Imperial Garden, Xiaoli, with her keen eyesight, spotted Feng Yuxi admiring the flowers from afar. She hurriedly reminded, "Your Highness, the Empress is still over there."

Feng Ling Xi raised an eyebrow, her eyes filled with resignation.

"It seems she won't be confiding in me today, and I doubt she'll let me out of the palace."

Feng Lingxi chuckled self-deprecatingly, how could she be so difficult

As soon as Feng Yu Xi saw Feng Ling Xi coming out of Zhaoyang Palace, the coldness in his eyes instantly disappeared. His cold and arrogant gaze fell on Feng Ling Xi, and that scrutinizing look made Feng Ling Xi's eyebrows twitch slightly.

"It seems Lan Fei favors you. She even gave you this precious century-old ginseng."

Feng Lingxi took the century-old ginseng from Xiao Li's hand and gave it to Feng Yu Xi, "If Your Majesty likes it, please accept it. Lan Fei said I was weak, so she asked me to supplement my body."

Feng Yu Xi Dao readily accepted it, opening it with a glance and a look of disdain in his eyes.

"Just two ginseng roots bought you out When did the Fourth Princess become so cheap"

Wind Ling Xi's brows furrowed slightly, "Your Majesty Empress says this, it seems like there is something good to bestow upon me. So, can I look forward to it"

The smile on Feng Yu Xi's face gradually vanished, replaced by a strained, mirthless grin. "Of course, it would be much better than what Lan Fei bestowed upon you."

"Then I shall take my leave of Your Majesty."

Feng Lingxi casually thanked him, glancing at Feng Yu Xi's cold eyes. "If there's nothing else, I should be going. It's getting late and the journey back to the capital will be tiring after all this travel."

"Since you're tired, why not rest in the Fengyi Palace"

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. However, Xi'er has not been feeling well lately and fears that she will have even more trouble resting at the Phoenix Hall. I wouldn't want to trouble Your Majesty with my concerns. It's best if I rest at home with my king."

Dugu City walked quickly to Feng Lingxi's face, looking at Feng Lingxi and Feng Yu Xi together, his eyes were full of worry. It was really every time he entered the palace that he would meet Feng Yu Xi once.

"Is the Fourth Royal Prince worried that I will bully the Fourth Princess"

A frown creased her brow as she met his gaze, her expression clearly displeased.

"This king is just worried that if Xier rests in the Phoenix Spirit Hall, the Empress Dowager will be unhappy."Princess Yao Hua is Feng Ling Xi""Your Majesty thinks I guessed incorrectly"Du Gu Yan's eyes were cold as she looked at the Empress's furrowed brow, "Empress, please don't deceive me. If I find that y...
