Chapter 859 Falling Frost Flower 49
."Come, let's take a walk with mother."Feng Lingxi followed her mother concubine, walking towards the imperial garden. Along the way, the old princess told her about the palace rules, the other noble..."Shutaifei, Zhōu'er would like to ask the Fourth Princess some questions. Would that be alright"
Wind Lingxi heard Luo Juzhou's words, looking into her sincere eyes. It didn't seem like she was being provocative.
"Xier, then you chat with Zhou'er. She's getting married into the Su Wangfu and is a bit nervous. You should comfort her." Shutai felt good. This scene was exactly what she wanted to see.
She also hopes that Xi'er can have more friends. Luo Juzhou, since he truly repents, becoming sisters-in-law with Xi'er, supporting each other, is also a good thing. After all, Cheng'er and the Prince of Su have a good relationship, and given the current situation, there is no need to make more enemies.
"Xi'er understands, Mother Concubine rest assured."
Feng Lingxi made a gesture of invitation to Luo Juzhou, “Lady Luo, let’s take a walk in the garden. The weather is lovely today, and the scenery there is quite unique. The pavilion over there is also very comfortable.”
"Please come in, Your Highness."
Luo Juzhou's smile was as sweet as the wind, as if she had forgotten all about the past.
Feng Lingxi wouldn't lose to her in front of her, Du Gucheng said to let her act like an ordinary woman, this was a good opportunity to learn well.
It has to be said, Luo Juzhou is very smart. With this period of training, she's completely changed. In comparison, Mo Huilan is much simpler.
Feng Lingxi and Luo Juzhou walked side by side. Luo Juzhou's every move was graceful, revealing the bearing and manner of a proper princess-to-be. This made Feng Lingxi open her eyes wide and feel that she paled in comparison.
"Fourth Royal Consort, Zhou'er heard that there have been many rumors about you in the capital recently. What happened"
Feng Lingxi smiled, looking at Luo Juzhou's puzzled expression. Her sweet and lovely face was laced with a hint of worry, her watery eyes sparkling with vivacity. She had lost her willful nature and instead, she appeared much more endearing.
"Lady Luo, you must have heard that my grandfather returned from the countryside. I wanted to stay at General's Residence for a while, but Ah Cheng is too busy to accompany me. That's why there are those rumors."
Feng Lingxi gave a helpless look, "Idle chatter among the common folk is not to be taken seriously."
"That's right, I told you! With how much City Brother adores the Fourth Princess, how could there be talk of a divorce"
Lo Qu Zhou let out a breath, her soft and adorable expression as if she was truly worried for her.
"Let Lady Luo worry."
"No problem."
Luo Juzhou smiled, "From now on, we'll be sisters-in-law. I'm lucky to have married the King of Su, it's all my good fortune."
"Are you truly determined to marry the King of Su"
Feng Lingxi was a little surprised to hear Luo Juzhou's words.
Luo Juzhou’s face was serious. “Marrying the Duke of Su is a good thing, at least there's only one princess in the Duke of Su's mansion, and besides, the Duke of Su will treat me well.” Luo Juzhou's eyes were red-rimmed, as if she had suffered a lot and transformed herself.
Feng Lingxi looking at her like this, felt a twinge of sympathy.
"Miss Luo has been wronged."
Feng Lingxi didn't know what to say, how to comfort her. Watching Luo Juzhou wipe away the tears she was trying so hard to hold back, Feng Lingxi suddenly felt sorry for her.
“People only grow when they experience losses. Speaking of which, I have to thank the Fourth Royal Consort. If not for how you treated me back then, perhaps I would have been ruined for life.” Luo Juzhou grasped Feng Lingxi’s hand, his eyes filled with sincerity. “I truly thank you.”
Feng Lingxi only felt a sharp pain in her palm, and Luo Juzhou had already let go of her. Feng Lingxi subconsciously scratched her palm, and the feeling disappeared. Luo Juzhou's face was still as before. Feng Lingxi thought that perhaps she had overthought it.
"Lady Luo, please have some tea."
Xiaoli brought tea, and Feng Lingxi sat down. After sitting down, she checked her palm where the pain had been just now, but there was nothing unusual. Unconsciously, Feng Lingxi also checked her pulse, but it was still normal.
Luo Ju Zhou looked at Feng Ling Xi constantly clutching her hand, her eyes concerned as she asked, “Fourth Royal Wife, what’s wrong with you”
Feng Lingxi shook her head, “It’s nothing.”
Lu Ju Zhou smiled and sipped her tea.
"There's something I want to ask the Fourth Princess, is there any way to cure King Su's poison"
When Lo Qu Zhou expressed concern for Du Gu Su's illness, Feng Ling Xi was a little surprised. Lo Qu Zhou blushed and quickly explained, "I'm about to marry King Su, so I definitely hope King Su will be well."
Feng Lingxi, hearing her explanation like this, could understand.
Who would be willing to marry and then become a widow
I haven't come up with a solution yet, let alone the Empress Dowager's decree forbidding me from researching the antidote.
Feng Lingxi didn't hide it, "Luo Junzhu, I can't help you with this matter. You'll have to find someone else."
Luo Ju Zhou's eyes dimmed, "So that's how it is."
Feng Lingxi nodded, "Right now, the court values King Su greatly. It's possible they will allow a cure for him someday."
Luo Ju Zhou responded, but her mood was noticeably worse than before. The conversation with Feng Ling Xi also became less lively than it had been. After chatting for a while, Luo Ju Zhou got up and said goodbye, "Fourth Princess, thank you for telling me so much. It's getting late, I'm going back."
"I'll see you off."
Feng Lingxi sent Luo Ju's boat out of the mansion. After she left, she looked at her palm again, always feeling a little uncomfortable.
That sting just now was very clear, it shouldn't be her hallucination. Luo Juzhou grabbed her hand and she didn't see anything in her palm.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong"
Xiao Li looked at the princess, something was wrong. Her eyes were full of concern.
Feng Lingxi reached out his hand, "Xiao Li, look at the palm of my hand. Is there anything unusual about it"
Xiao Li looked carefully, shook her head. Feng Ling Xi once again let Xiao Li hold her palm, just like Luo Ju Zhou had held her palm just now. Feng Ling Xi still didn't notice anything unusual, and couldn't help but shake her head.
"Could it be that I'm overthinking things"
"Your Highness, what are you trying to say"
"It's okay, let's go back."
Feng Lingxi returned to Shu Taifei's courtyard and saw Shu Taifei chatting with a tailor, selecting fabrics. She walked over to greet them. When Shu Taifei saw her, she immediately called out, "Xi'er, come here quickly and see if you like the colors of these fabrics"
"Mother, we still have the previous garments. Why make new ones"
Being a princess, it's really tiring, especially the clothes. The style and patterns are meticulous, not to mention that they have to be different every time.
Shutai Fei took her hand, smiling and said, "Cheng'er said to have me make you a set of clothes that will allow you to steal the show at the banquet. I've been thinking about what to make for you."
Shutai's face was full of smiles. Seeing Feng Lingxi remained silent, she chuckled and said, "Actually, Xier is already beautiful enough. She could outshine them all just by wearing anything."
Feng Lingxi stepped forward, wanting to seriously choose the colors of flowers. Suddenly, she felt a dizziness and everything went dark, almost causing Feng Lingxi to fall. When she came back to her senses, she saw Xiao Li and Shu Taifei looking at her with concern.
"Xier, what happened to you just now"
Wind Lingxi shook her head, "Mother, I'm fine. I just feel a little dizzy."
Dizzy
Feng Ling hurriedly checked his pulse, but found nothing amiss. How could this beLing Xi, "Who do you think you are, acting so recklessly in front of me Do you think I don't exist"Qing He hurriedly rushed to Shu Taifei's feet, kneeling and holding onto Shu Taifei's legs, weeping a...
