Chapter 1300: War Clouds Gather (Part 1)

eting the Empress Dowager's sharp gaze and truthfully replied, "Reporting to Your Majesty, the entrance to Yao Clan is not fixed. It is within the formation. Once a traitor appears within the clan, th...Then you go early and come back early.

Feng Lingxi responded and thought for a moment, "It's better not to bring Wan'er. Just me and Xiao Li will go."

"Okay."

Du Gu Cheng had someone prepare a carriage for Feng Ling Xi, and Feng Ling Xi took Xiao Li out.

"My lord, is the princess truly going to visit them I'm afraid they might start arguing."

Xier is not an unreasonable person. She went to Lu's mansion with her own thoughts, so we shouldn't overthink it.

As soon as Dugu Cheng finished speaking, Ye Xi hurriedly added, "My lord, I haven't interfered with the princess. I was just worried about her."

"You're still worried about Xiaoli, aren't you This king's wife, don't you keep thinking about her."

Ye Xi remained silent, he was worried about Xiaoli. After all, she was his future wife who hadn't entered the door yet, so naturally, he had to keep a close eye on her. The Lu family had three sons. What if Mrs. Lu took a liking to Xiaoli and forced her to marry into the Lu family Then wouldn't his soon-to-be wife be gone

Dugu City didn't know about Ye Xi's worries. After Feng Lingxi left the house, he went to find Feng Yixuan to discuss business.

Feng Lingxi's carriage stopped at the entrance of Lu Mansion. After getting out of the carriage, Feng Lingxi stood at the entrance of Lu Mansion, looking at the people queuing up to receive rice at the entrance of Lu Mansion. Their faces were filled with smiles that couldn't be concealed, while those distributing the rice were Lu Nian's three brothers and the servants of Lu Mansion. The speed of distribution was fast, and there was no need to wait too long.

"Young Master, there's a lady over there looking at you."

A servant whispered beside Lu Nian. Lu Nian looked up, her downcast eyes instantly brightening. She dropped the spoon in her hand and quickly walked to Feng Lingxi's side, her excitement evident.

"Sister, how did you get here"

No sooner had he spoken than he hastily explained, "No, I meant how did you know I was here"

Feng Lingxi watched Lu Nianyu's uncharacteristically disheveled appearance, a smile blooming on her face. "I heard that someone here was handing out rice, it was the new arrivals from the Lu family, so I came to take a look out of curiosity."

"This is all my parents' idea. They said that when we arrive here, we should get along with the people. Anyway, our Lu family often gives alms, it's nothing."

Feng Lingxi glanced at the common people around her and had a high opinion of them.

"Where are your parents I'm here today to thank them for their kindness."

"What are you thanking me for, we're family. Come on in and talk."

Lu Nian hurriedly pulled Feng Lingxi into the mansion. The common people looked curiously at Lu Nian and the princess's relationship, their eyes full of suspicion, muttering in low voices. Some bolder ones blurted out their doubts.

"How is the Princess getting involved with the young master of the Lu family Should we tell the King"

The rice in his hand suddenly didn't smell as good anymore. The common people watched anxiously as the princess walked in, smiling.

"My young master and the Countess of Chen met in the capital, and they get along very well. Upon learning that our young master had moved here, the Countess came specially to offer congratulations." The steward of the Lu Mansion stepped forward to explain to the crowd's murmurs, making his words clear and preventing any loss of trust.

"I see."

The smiles returned to the people's faces. After all, the relationship between the prince and princess was so good, how could the princess betray her husband and have an affair with another man Besides, this wasn't a secret meeting!

"Come on, keep passing the rice."

The steward was good with words, pacifying the people. Watching Feng Lingxi's retreating figure, he smiled happily. The only young lady of the Lu family had finally returned home.

"Don't pull me, I can walk by myself."

Wind Lingxi was grabbed by Lu Nian, and looking at the gazes of everyone in the mansion, she felt a little embarrassed.

Lu Nian, upon hearing this, quickly loosened his grip and flatteringly said to Feng Lingxi, "Sister, we've known each other for so long, you must speak a few good words for me later. Please don't say anything out of line, or I'll be in trouble."

Here is the English translation of the text you provided:< Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I will do my best to accurately and clearly translate it into English. >

"Is it that scary How could your own parents dislike you" Feng Lingxi was amused by Lu Nian's words. She had never met a mother who disliked her son so much.

"You'll see for yourself, can't I fool you anymore"

The news that Lu Nian led Feng Lingxi into the mansion spread quickly. When Mrs. Lu heard the news, her footsteps quickened with every stride. She arrived at the courtyard in a flash, using her light kung fu skills. Feng Lingxi only felt a gust of wind pass before her eyes, and suddenly there was a beautiful woman standing before her. The woman scrutinized Feng Lingxi from head to toe, her face filled with excitement.

"Mother, this is my younger sister, Feng Lingxi, that I mentioned to you."

As soon as Lu Nian spoke, he was pulled aside by Lady Lu. Lady Lu stared intently at Feng Lingxi for a long time without blinking.

"Get lost, I don't need you."

Feng Lingxi's lips twitched slightly, looking at Lu Nian and her aggrieved expression. Now do you believe me

"It's a good thing you don't look like your father, or you'd really be in trouble."

Lu's madam had a smile on her face, holding Feng Lingxi's hand as if she were her own daughter.

"Lu's wife."

Feng Lingxi had just opened her mouth when Lu's wife said, "Don't call me Lu's wife, it's too formal. Just call me mother."

"This..."

The Lu family mistress was truly overjoyed. The excitement in her eyes and brows was undeniable, she hadn't even noticed if her words were causing Feng Lingxi any discomfort. All she wanted was a daughter, and now her wish had come true, a beautiful celestial-like daughter at that.

Feng Lingxi retracted her hand, and Lu Fu's smile froze on her face as she stared at Feng Lingxi.

"What's wrong"

"Mother, didn't I tell you Her mother won't let her acknowledge a father."

Lu Nian gritted her teeth and reminded herself. Glancing at Feng Lingxi's expression, she knew today she definitely wasn't here to meet them. Before he could even figure out her purpose, his mother arrived.

"It doesn't matter if you don't recognize your father, it doesn't matter at all. All that matters is that you let me recognize you as my daughter, and then I'll be complete. My whole life has been missing a daughter to make things perfect. Now that I finally have one, who your father is doesn't matter."

Mrs. Lu directly crossed out her husband, Lu Hao. She wanted her daughter and Feng Lingxi to acknowledge him as their father without any conflict.

"Madam Lu, thank you for your kindness. I'm sorry, but I cannot accept you as my relative. The reason I'm here today is to have a clear conversation with you."

Feng Lingxi's attitude was gentle, and the smile on Mrs. Lu's face disappeared for a moment before quickly returning.

"No worries, we can talk today or another day. Let's sit in the front hall and chat slowly."

Mrs. Lu's personality was refreshing, Feng Lingxi thought. If she weren't Mrs. Lu, perhaps she could get along with this elder of hers.

“Tell your father not to come to the front hall, lest he gets angry just by looking at him.” Lu Nian was about to follow, but was called out by Mrs. Lu. These words made Feng Lingxi’s expression stiffen slightly. Looking at Mrs. Lu's serious expression, it seemed that Lu Nian’s father was also under his wife's control in the Lu family and had no status.

"Should I call you Xi'er or Princess Chen"

Feng Lingxi, upon hearing Lu Fu's words, calmly replied, "It is up to you, madam. You may call me anything."

Then call her Xi'er, it sounds more friendly.

Mrs. Lu looked at Feng Lingxi, liking her more and more with each glance. "These eyebrows and eyes... Lu Hao is truly blessed. Just looking at you, I know your mother must have been a beauty. It's such a pity."

Feng Lingxi, hearing her words, didn't feel like she was speaking ill of her mother. Her words revealed a fondness for her.dly said, “When I went down just now, the shop assistant told me that after the princess woke up, she asked you to go over there once, saying that there was something for you.”Feng Ling xi went downst...
