's Residence."Feng Lingxi, hearing that Dugu City had returned, was eager to return. Looking at Empress Cen's slightly furrowed brows, she reminded her, "Empress Dowager, you still have to take care o..."Your Highness, as expected of you. Feng Yu Xi truly came for Zi Xing."

Xiaoli and Feng Lingxi walked out, watching Feng Yu Xi's departing figure in the rain and wind. Their eyes were filled with anger.

"Isn't this what we expected What's there to be angry about You should be grateful she didn't take advantage of me while I was sleeping. Otherwise, she would have taken not only the Purple Star but also my life."

Xiaoli angrily clenched her fists, "Since that's the case, you should arrest her and give her a good beating! Make her tell us why she's here!"

“Right now, capturing her will only alert the snake. If her purpose for coming here is only to obtain the Zi Xing, then it doesn't matter. But if she came for something else, she will soon take action. And that’s exactly what I wanted to happen.”

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli's angry eyes, "That Zixing is fake."

"Fake"

Xiao Li looked at the Princess in astonishment, her face full of disbelief, looking at the smile on the Princess's face, "No wonder the Princess was so generous as to give Zi Xing to her, the maidservant thought you really gave Zi Xing to her."

Feng Lingxi smiled, “She’s never seen Zi Xing before, so she wouldn’t know if it was real or fake.” Unless they needed to use Zi Xing, they wouldn’t discover its falseness. By then, she could follow the clues and find the Yao clan they were looking for. Perhaps she could even find her mother’s whereabouts.

"Shall we inform the King now"

"No need, just wait for the news."

Someone was following, keeping track of everything Feng Yu Xi did through wind and rain. She knew every little change, every rustle in the grass. They just needed to wait for her appearance and observe her actions.

"Come, let's study gunpowder."

Xiao Li watched the Queen leave and hurriedly caught up to her, "Another firework How long have they been researching this thing Why doesn't the stone explode"

I thought that once Feng Yu Xi went out, she wouldn't come back. Unexpectedly, when it was time for dinner, she returned. The person tracking Feng Yu Xi said she met someone in the woods outside the city. That person had their face covered. Feng Yu Xi gave the purple star to that person and waited for an hour. After the person sent back the purple star, she came back.

There's no doubt that Zixing was definitely switched with someone else by Feng Yuxi, and Feng Lingxi is very sure that when Feng Yuxi returns, she will definitely have other purposes. Otherwise, she would have just left.

After returning from the wind and rain, Feng Yu Xi came back as if nothing had happened. After finishing the meal, he watched Feng Ling Xi go busy and did not pester her. He returned to his room early to rest.

As night fell, Feng Ling Xi was in the midst of mixing gunpowder when a scream suddenly erupted from Feng Yu Xi's room. Feng Ling Xi immediately rushed over with his men and saw a dark figure attempting to assassinate Feng Yu Xi. He shouted urgently, "Protect the Third Miss!"

That dark shadow, upon being discovered, lunged towards Feng Lingxi. Feng Lingxi instinctively dodged and saw Feng Yu Xi charging at her, knocking her flying. Feng Lingxi fired her crossbow from beneath her sleeve, swiftly dodging the opponent's sword and narrowly avoiding a strike.

"Xi'er, run!"

Feng Yu exclaimed in surprise, his heart still pounding from the storm. He stared incredulously at the black-clad figure who had somehow missed Feng Lingxi. This was too bizarre!

She had pushed them all in front of him, how could she have missed

"Catch the assassin!"

Xiaoli shouted loudly, and the man in black leaped, flipping over the wall and escaping.

"Xier, are you alright"

Feng Yu Xi nervously ran to Feng Ling Xi's face, seeing that she was truly unharmed. Thinking back on the scene just now, he stammered in explanation, "I was trying to push you away, I didn't expect the assassin to attack you. Xi'er, I really didn't mean it, I just thought the assassin was coming for me, pushing you away wouldn't hurt you."

"Third Sister, are you alright"

Feng Lingxi hurriedly pulled her to check. Seeing that she was fine, he let out a sigh of relief. This kind of reaction made Feng Yuxi feel very guilty. Did she really not realize that she had done it on purpose just now Even so, Feng Lingxi still cared if she was hurt

"I'm fine, Xi'er. How about you Are you hurt"

“What could possibly be wrong” Feng Lingxi smiled at her. “Thankfully you pushed me away, or I really would have been hurt.”

"Xi'er, actually I just..."

Before the evening conversation amidst wind and rain could be finished, they saw Dugu City arrive with people in a hurry. He grabbed her hand and checked her anxiously, "Xi'er, are you alright"

"It's nothing, I just let the assassin get away."

Dugu City hugged her, "It's good that you're alright. This king will definitely catch the assassin."

"Your Highness, it's all my fault. That assassin came for me, I fear he was sent by the Empress Dowager." Feng Yu Xi apologized with a face full of guilt. Dugu Cheng glanced at her, "Xiao Li, take the princess back to rest first. This king will be there later. Ye Xi, dig three feet under and find that gift this king gave!"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng's furious eyes, soothed Feng Yu Xi with a few words and then returned to her room.

"Amidst the wind and rain, Xier has endured hardship here alongside this king. This time, this king knows it's not your fault. However, this king hopes you can tell him, who was the one who attempted to assassinate you"

Feng Yu Xi hastily knelt down, shaking his head, tears streaming down his face.

"My Lord, I truly don't know who the assassin was. I only guessed it might be someone from the Empress Dowager's side, but I really have no idea who came to assassinate me."

"Don't you really know"

Feng Yu Xi cried with her head bowed, Du Gu Cheng watched her pitiful appearance and coldly said, "Go rest. This king will go see Xi'er first."

After Dugu Cheng left, someone was sent to keep an eye on him. Feng Yu Xi watched Dugu Cheng's leaving figure, instinctively clenching her fists. It was really annoying. She actually encountered an assassin here. Could it be that the Empress Dowager really wanted to kill her

She only gave her the Purple Star, and now the Empress Dowager wants her life

Dugu Cheng returned to the room for a while, then came back. He walked in front of her and held her hand to check, "Xi'er, were you hurt just now"

“I'm fine, she didn't find out, did she”

Dugu Cheng shook his head, pulling her down to sit. "Are you sure this will work tonight Can this really stir up her feelings What if she figures out it was us Wouldn't that cause even more trouble"

"Feng Yu Xi gave the purple star to the Empress Dowager's people, and then suddenly got assassinated. Such a smart person like her, how could she not guess who sent the assassin The more someone is like her, the more they would suspect. We can just sit and wait for news."

Dugu City listened to her explanation, his eyes filled with tenderness as he looked at her. "Then if she truly believes that the assassin was sent by the Empress Dowager, would she stand on our side"

"Even if it doesn't, it benefits us more to have them suspect each other."

Feng Lingxi took out a box and took out a pendant, handing it to Dugu City.

"Look, this is my new 'Purple Star'. What do you think Can you tell it's fake"

Dugu Cheng took the hand and looked at it carefully. His face was filled with surprise, and he hurriedly took out his own purple star pendant from his neck to compare it. He hurriedly asked, "Xi'er, how did you do this"

"These stones look exactly like the real ones. Where did these stones come from" someone investigate for you. After all, wouldn't you like to…""No need."Windling looked at Xiaoli, "Knowing his affairs is nothing. He hasn't recovered his memory, what can we do Besides, I'm heavily...
