Chapter 94: Fighting on the Bed, Part 58

hus speaking, would Xi'er be angry However, Dugu City had looked for a long time but didn't see her anger."A mouth belongs to another person, so how they choose to use it is their business. Besides, t...Feng Lingxi saw all the forbearance in her eyes, stood up, and looked at Liu Shi beside her. "Second Aunt, since I had a high fever, my mother has been ill, and you have been in charge of the entire Feng Mansion. You understand what I mean best, don't you"

Liu's face turned pale and red, she didn't know how to answer.

She was clearly coming for her, but if she said so, wouldn't that mean she was accusing her of beguiling the general and favoring a concubine over his wife

But she bore sons and daughters for the General's Residence, while Zhang Shi only gave birth to a legitimate daughter. Even as the official wife, so what Mothers are exalted by their sons – this has been the case since ancient times. She just couldn't bear it.

"What happened Why is everyone kneeling here"

Feng Aotien returned and heard that Feng Lingxi had arrived, so he hurried over. He didn't expect to see his eldest and second daughters kneeling on the ground, and Feng Lingxi standing there arrogantly. He was furious.

Feng Lingxi turned around, looking at her father who had arrived. A smile curved her lips, "Father is back. I was just talking with the second aunt about the saying 'spoiling concubines and destroying wives.' Father has come, it's perfect timing. You can explain this saying to me as well. Since I had a high fever when I was five, I haven't gone to school. These profound words, I truly don't know what they mean."

Feng Aotien's face changed drastically, looking at the four princes who remained silent. He bowed, "Subject pays respects to the Fourth Prince."

"General Feng, please don't be so polite. Today, I am here with Xi'er to visit my mother-in-law. Xi'er has some confusion, so General, could you help her clear it up"

Dugu Cheng threw the question back to Feng Aotian, noticing his grim expression. He walked aside and sat down, while Xiao Li quickly brought tea and served him.

Feng Aotien looked at his eldest daughter kneeling on the ground, his brow furrowed, "Xi'er, you asked your second mother and your two elder sisters what their relationship was, why are you kneeling"

Feng Lingxi glanced at them and smiled, saying, "Father asked well, Xi'er also wants to ask, why are the two elder sisters kneeling on the ground"

Feng Linglong was so angry that she clenched her fists. Feng Lingyu angrily shouted, "Wasn't it you who made us kneel Don't pretend to be innocent."

"Xier, what on earth is going on"

Feng Aotian glanced at his second daughter, knowing this matter was definitely not simple. Otherwise, how could it have escalated to such a point

Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Linglong, who was enduring in silence, "Father should still ask Eldest Sister. Xi'er truly doesn't know the reason."

"Linglong, you speak," Feng Aotian addressed her. Feng Linglong glanced at Feng Lingxi, then said in a low voice, "Father, it was my improper words that offended Fourth Sister."

"We're all family, why so many rules Get up."

Feng Aotian spoke casually, wanting to call them up. Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Lingyu who was about to get up and said softly, "Father, this wasn't me who made the two elder sisters kneel down. If you want them to stand up, you have to ask the King."

Feng Aotien glanced at Dugu City, his face stiffened. He forced a smile and asked, "Your Highness, what do you think of this..."

"They insulted my beloved concubine, Xi'er is unhappy, and so am I. They naturally deserve punishment. When Xi'er is happy, then I shall allow them to rise."

If they upset Yexier, they wouldn't have a good time.

Feng Aotian looked at Feng Lingxi, seeing a smile on her face, he suppressed the anger in his heart, "Xi'er, since you are sisters, don't take it too seriously, I'll tell father later."

"Father, let's not talk about this matter for now. I have another thing I want to ask Father. This matter is puzzling, and Xi'er can't feel at ease or happy."

Feng Ling Xi's words made Feng Ao Tian very angry. She was clearly taking advantage of the Fourth Prince's favor and wanting to push things further.

"What's the matter, you say."

Wind Lingxi's eyes swept over her mother's courtyard. She feigned ignorance and asked, "Just now when Xi'er came to see Mother, there wasn't a single servant in this courtyard. Mother said Father had them all leave this courtyard. I wonder what the reason is"

Feng Aotien, hearing her question, glared around but saw no Zhang family member. He spoke in a low voice, "This matter has nothing to do with you."

"How could it be unrelated, Mother is my only relative in this world. If Xi'er doesn't care about Mother's life or death, then who else would"

Feng Aotian heard her words and anger flared, “What do you mean by your only relative Don’t I count as your father, aren’t they your sisters, isn’t she your second aunt”

Feng Lingxi glanced at Liu Shi, and smiled faintly.

"Father, you can't ask me that. You have to ask them. Since I had the fever, have they ever treated me like a sister And Father, has anyone ever stepped into my courtyard to see this humble daughter of yours"

"Are you accusing me"

Feng Lingxi walked to the side and sat down, holding the tea that Duguo City had handed her and taking a sip. It moistened her throat.

"Father, you're joking. I was just asking out of curiosity. If Father doesn't want to answer, that's fine, but then the two elder sisters will have to kneel."

"You…"

Feng Aotian was very angry, but he didn't dare to lose his temper. After all, Dugu Cheng was sitting here, watching his every move. Even if he wanted to scold Feng Lingxi, he had to give Dugu Cheng face.

"Where's your mother"

Feng Aotien pointed his spear at Zhang shi, wanting to pull her out to give her a talking-to.

Feng Lingxi put down the teacup in her hand and asked leisurely, "Mother, since you are unwell, why not return to your room to rest This little matter can be handled by me myself. Mother needn't trouble herself."

"It is all my fault. It's my fault that the generals are here. I shouldn't have let Linglong and Lingyu come to greet me on Xi'er's behalf, nor should I have stopped the general from taking away my sister's maidservants, which angered Xi'er. It's all my fault."

Liu cried, her graceful demeanor making Feng Aotiantian feel sympathy for her.

"Father, my mother is your lawfully wedded wife, brought into the family with three books and six rituals, a proper marriage under the sun. Yet she's treated worse than a concubine! Father, although you are a military man, these principles should still be understood. Throughout history, favoring concubines over wives has never ended well."

"What do you mean by that When did I ever kill my wife"

Feng Aotian roared angrily, glaring at Feng Lingxi with cold eyes. He scolded him, his face stern and unforgiving.

"Father, do you know why Mother fell ill after I had a high fever Father truly believes that Mother is weak and unable to bear children for you. Father never thinks about the reasons behind it"

"What are you trying to say"

Feng Aotian glared at Feng Lingxi. Feng Lingxi glanced at Liu Shi, seeing her eyes filled with grief and tears welling up, she looked down, her gaze suddenly turned cold.

"My mother was poisoned, a chronic poisoning that lasted for ten years."

When Feng Lingxi uttered those words, Feng Aotian's face darkened even further. He glared at Feng Lingxi and thundered, "You unfilial daughter! You dare to suspect that I poisoned your mother"

"Wind General, is what Xi'er said not clear enough This mother-in-law has been poisoned for over ten years, and Wind General has been guarding the border all these years. How could he possibly poison his own wife"

Feng Aotian's face stiffened, and after being reminded by Dugu City, he calmed down.

"Father, I only want to understand some things, such as why Father has so many concubines, but only Second Aunt can gain Father's favor"gxi looked at Luo Li, "You are all my clan chief.""No..."Luo Li quickly got up, looking at Feng Ling Xi with a guarded expression, "Don't try to play games with me. I'm telling you, this time I've lef...
