Chapter 821: Frost Flowers 11
ly softened, Ye Xi swallowed nervously. He somehow felt that the King this time was going to skin him alive.But the situation was urgent, this really wasn't his concern.Under the bright blue sky, who..."Young Master Xiao, Miss Ye is still young. There's no need for fifty lashes."
Feng Lingxi spoke, her gaze fixed on Ye Miss's furious eyes. Her beautiful eyes swept across the garments in the clothing store. "I shall punish her by having her buy all the clothes here as atonement."
"What did you say Do you know how much all these clothes cost" Miss Ye pointed at Feng Lingxi angrily, her fury rising. "Didn't you want this dress This young lady is giving it to you."
Miss Ye snatched the garment she was fighting with Xiao Li over and threw it at Feng Lingxi's face. Just as the garment was about to hit Feng Lingxi, Feng Yumeng caught it, glaring angrily at the willful Miss Ye. Feng Yumeng's face was dark as water.
"A young lady from the Eastern Pavilion University Scholar's household is like this, it’s truly disappointing."
"Yu Mo, I'll leave this to you. Fifty taels is indeed a light sentence, but let him live."
Feng Lingxi finished speaking and looked at Xiao Simu beside her, "Young Master Xiao, I'm going back first."
"Please, Your Highness the Fourth Royal Wife."
Xiao Simu gestured to Feng Lingxi with a please, and instructed the servant beside him, "Help Seventh Young Master handle things here, this young master will send Fourth Madam back home."
"Thank you, Young Master Xiao."
Feng Lingxi walked to the entrance of the clothing store and, looking at the bustling street, she soon saw a group of soldiers enter, respectfully saluting her luggage: "Greetings, Fourth Princess."
"Take care of things inside."
Watching them go in, Feng Ling Xi stood at the door waiting for Feng Yu Mo for a while. When he came out, he whispered a few words in her ear, nodded, and looked at Xiao Si Mu beside him, “Young Master Xiao, my brother and I want to take a stroll, so we won’t keep you company.”
"Fourth Princess, may I have a word with you"
Feng Lingxi smiled, this Xiao Simu is indeed straightforward. His appearance at the ready-made clothing store couldn't be a coincidence, he must have been waiting for this opportunity.
Xiao Simu made a gesture of invitation, and Feng Lingxi followed him to the teahouse on the second floor. This window seat offered a view of the bustling street below. Sitting here for a cup of tea was indeed a unique experience.
"Young Master Xiao, is there something you want to tell me"
This Pingnan Wang had been in the capital for several months, always keeping to himself and never visiting Dugu City or her. Today's "coincidence" was indeed a surprise to her.
Xiao Simu nodded, her expression growing serious.
"Since the Fourth Royal Consort is so agreeable, then I'll be straightforward. The reason I came today is to ask the Fourth Royal Consort for a favor."
"Please speak, Young Master Xiao."
Feng Lingxi looked at his solemn expression and thought well of him on first impression.
The King of Pingnan had always been suppressed by the King of Pingbei. In terms of military exploits and influence, the King of Pingnan was inferior to the King of Pingbei. This time when Prince Xiao entered the capital, he has been helping the King of Pingnan quell bandits and enforce justice. He acts impartially and enjoys a good reputation among the people.
Feng Lingxi had checked, and both the King of Pingnan and Xiao Simu treated the people in the Pingnan Wangfu this way. They were always upright and just, always thinking of the common people.
To be honest with you, I asked the Fourth Princess to help me see a patient. She was poisoned.
"Poisoned"
Wind Ling Xi heard this, her brows furrowed slightly as she asked in confusion, "Young Master Xiao, why did you look for me Under the Emperor's feet, if Young Master Xiao wanted to find a doctor, he could also ask the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Bureau."
Xiao Simu nodded, "The Fourth Princess is right, the imperial physicians at the Imperial Medical Bureau can indeed be summoned, but they are unable to cure this poison."
"How do you know I can"
Feng Ling Xi smiled, "Don't they think they made my medical skills sound a bit too legendary All the poisons Tai Hospital can't solve are coming to me."
"I've long heard of the Fourth Princess's medical skills and hope she would be willing to lend a hand."
Xiao Simu's eyes were full of pleading, his expression sincere.
"Who was the person that Young Master Xiao spoke of"
"It's Mother."
"Princess Pingnan"
Seeing Xiao Simu nod, Feng Lingxi frowned, a little surprised. How could this Pingnan Princess be poisoned
"How long have you been poisoned"
Xiao Simu looked around and truthfully said, "To be frank with the Fourth Princess, my mother showed signs of poisoning after entering the capital. As for when she was poisoned, it hasn't been found out yet. My father also asked the imperial physicians to diagnose her, but unfortunately, they couldn't find an antidote."
Hearing Xiao Simu's words, Feng Lingxi frowned. To be poisoned in the capital and unable to find a cure was too incompetent for the imperial physicians.
"Can the imperial physician tell us what kind of poison this is"
Xiao Simu fell silent for a long time before saying, “This poison is invisible and has no cure. It’s unheard of.”
"Well, that piques my interest."
Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li, "It's still early, let's go take a look and see how it is"
Xiao Li frowned, glanced at the time, and said, "Your Highness, perhaps we should go tomorrow instead Let the King return to accompany you."
"Seeing Xiao Li like this, Xiao Simu quickly said, “If the Fourth Royal Princess finds it inconvenient, I can also bring my mother to visit the Fourth Royal Princess. This way, it won't delay the Fourth Royal Princess for long.”
Feng Lingxi pondered for a moment. If it were the Princess Pingnan to the Fourth Princess, outsiders would know at most that the Princess Pingnan was also moving around with the Fourth Prince's Mansion. If she went to the Princess Pingnan's Mansion, this news would spread differently.
"Then, I'll trouble Young Master Xiao to bring Lady Pingnan to the Fourth Prince's residence tomorrow"
Xiao Simu was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed, "Thank you, Fourth Princess, for your willingness to help. I will definitely bring my mother to the Fourth Prince's Mansion tomorrow."
Feng Lingxi smiled, "Young Master Xiao is too kind."
"Sister, everything is taken care of."
Feng Lingxi nodded, watching Xiao Simu's excited expression. "Young Master Xiao, I will return home first. Tomorrow, I will go to the Fourth Prince's Mansion and tell everyone that I am visiting Tai Fei Shu."
Xiao Simu nodded, "Thank you for reminding the Fourth Princess, I remembered."
Feng Lingxi and Feng Wu Mo, along with others, left. Xiao Simu happily stood up, "Quickly go and inform Father King to prepare a gift for the Fourth Prince's Mansion. We will visit tomorrow."
Feng Lingxi came out and looked at the clothing store they had just left, raising an eyebrow and asking, "Yu Mo, is everything with Miss Ye arranged"
"He was sent back to Ye's residence after being beaten fifty times."
Feng Yu Mo's tone was clearly displeased when he spoke of this Miss Ye, daring to bully his sister was simply asking for a beating.
"At most tomorrow, Lord Ye will arrive at our house."
Feng Lingxi reminded, “Treat them well and don’t be disrespectful.”
"Your Highness, this Lord Ye and his wife are not good people. Why do you have to swallow your anger You are the Fourth Princess Consort, why should you let them bully you."
The more Xiaoli thought about it, the angrier she became. She really didn't know why the Princess was being so polite to them.
Miss Ye's mistake has already been punished. This Lord Ye, as a Grand Scholar of the East Pavilion, certainly wouldn't be as impolite as Miss Ye. We can't punish him upon his arrival.
Xiao Li pouted, "How could the Princess know that Lord Ye is an impolite person This Miss Ye doesn't have the slightest bit of elegance a noble lady should possess. She is domineering and arrogant, even bullying the Princess! Not to mention you are the Fourth Princess, even if you were the Saint Master of the Yao clan, she wouldn't be allowed to act so recklessly."ble to have her, wanting nothing more than the Yao clan treasure she possessed."If you hadn't said these things, perhaps I would have agreed with you out of consideration for your earnest plea. Now, I...
