identity before she said more.As for her future, she had stopped thinking about it ever since she left the Heavenly Mandate Country."Fourth Royal Princess, Prince Consort said that the gunpowder was d...After they had walked far away, Luoli and Li Wuyan came out from the shadows. Looking at their departing figures, a cold glint flashed in their eyes.

"You wouldn't believe it, this person is such a good actor."

Otherwise, do you think he is truly innocent This man's cousin is a spy. He came in with his cousin. Even if he knows nothing, his cousin would make him do things. How could he know nothing at all What he said was too perfect, and that's where the flaws lie.

Luo Li looked at Feng Ling Xi, "Follow me and take a look."

Feng Lingxi answered with a cry, and the three of them hurriedly followed.

Fortunately, I had already greeted the Yao people beforehand and asked them to follow Xiao Li secretly. Otherwise, if we went like this, there would definitely be danger.

Xiao Li followed this person to a house in the city center. Seeing that there was no one around, the man whispered to Xiao Li, "This is it, come on in."

Xiaoli glanced around. Suddenly, there was the sound of a dog barking from the alley. Xiaoli instinctively looked over and hurriedly pressed down on the person's shoulder, lowering her voice and saying, "Be careful, we're being followed."

The man originally suspected Xiaoli, but when she pressed him down and pointed her finger towards the back door, he nodded. The two walked towards the back door.

The barking of dogs in the alley grew louder and louder. Xiaoli looked around, a cold glint appeared in her eyes.

This person actually suspected her, it seems this person is quite intelligent. They probably already discovered her identity was wrong, otherwise they wouldn't have come looking for her.

"Go in first, I'll guard for you."

"Together."

Xiao Li nodded towards him, her eyes fixed ahead. The man hesitated for a moment before nodding. The two of them together climbed over the wall and entered the house. As soon as they landed, Xiao Li was surrounded by a group of people, a knife pressed against her neck.

That person walked up to Xiaoli, pulled down her veil, and looked at her unfamiliar face, his eyes turning cold.

“I knew you had a problem, didn't you really think I hadn't noticed.”

Xiao Li looked at him, her face unafraid.

"What do you mean by that You're doing things for the Empress Dowager. Do you know who I am"

Xiaoli coldly scanned the faces of those present. "The Empress Dowager didn't tell you that this time, when Dugu Cheng and Feng Lingxi returned to Xicun County, they would send people to secretly follow them and assist you in capturing them all"

As soon as the words left her mouth, the crowd who had previously been suspicious of Xiao Li's intentions now looked at her with questioning gazes, their eyes darting back and forth between each other.

The Empress did indeed say that, but they didn't know who it was yet, after all, the person hadn't arrived.

"What evidence do you have to prove that what you're saying is true"

"Want to see proof I'll show you."

Xiaoli reached into her waist and pulled out a token. Those people crowded forward, wanting to see clearly what was written on the token. Suddenly, there was a strange fragrance in front of them. Everyone was startled and hurriedly covered their noses, taking several steps back and pointing their swords at Xiaoli.

Three, two, one!

Xiaoli counted, and when the time came, everyone fell down all at once.

The door was kicked open with a bang, and a large group of people rushed in.

"Xiaoli, are you alright"

Leading the way was Ye Xi, nervously watching Xiao Li. Seeing that she was fine, he finally let out a sigh of relief.

"What could I possibly have to do with this Don't you know who I am"

With a smug look in her eyes, Xiao Li looked at the dozen or so figures lying on the ground. "What are you still standing there for Bind them all up and take them back for questioning one by one."

"What are you all just standing there for Tie them up and bring them back."

After roaring, Ye Xi turned to look at Xiao Li, smiling with a face full of coquettishness.

"Little Li, this time I came so promptly, cooperating with you seamlessly. In front of the Princess, please say a few nice words for me, and later, let me hold the little one too"

Don't even think about it.

Xiaoli looked at Yexi with displeasure, "Wan'er is the holy maiden of our Yao clan. She has a noble status. How could you hold her Besides, I'm afraid you have ulterior motives towards her."

"I..."

Ye Xi was taken aback by Xiao Li's words. Which eye of his saw that

He just wanted to see what the young master looked like. That's not right, is it

Besides, he knows his own status. He wouldn't dare to have any thoughts about the young master, not even Xiaoli. He certainly doesn't want to end up like the Duke.

"Xiao Li."

Then Feng Lingxi arrived and walked in. When Ye Xi saw Feng Lingxi, she hurriedly stepped forward to greet her.

"My lord has met the Queen."

"Ye Xi, long time no see."

Feng Lingxi smiled and greeted, noticing Ye Xi was also there. Her gaze subconsciously swept around the surroundings. Ye Xi hurriedly chuckled, "Your Highness, Your Majesty didn't come. He doesn't know about tonight's operation. It was Xiaoli who asked me to join her."

"Oh"

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli, her eyes smiling so much that Xiaoli's eyes turned red. She hurriedly explained, "Your Highness, it's just that I don't think he deserves to get away with this for free..."

"What are you nervous about, I didn't say anything."

Xiao Li was speechless and simply kept quiet.

"Your Highness, thanks to Xiao Li's cleverness and the cooperation of my subordinates, we managed to catch them all."

Feng Lingxi, looking at Ye Xi's flattering tone, her smile widened. "You actually know how to please a girl."

"Your Majesty, he is not trying to please me. He's trying to please you and wants to hold Wan'er."

Xiao Li's tone was sour, Ye Xi wanted to speak but hesitated. However, she still didn't dare to voice her heart.

"When Wan'er comes, you can hold her if you want to."

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi, her eyes full of admiration, "Reward you for your performance tonight."

Ye Xi beamed, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Your Highness, you really agreed to him, Ye Xi he..."

"Just don't mention Yexi, she's already having a tough time."

Feng Lingxi watched Ye Xi lower her head, a silly smile on her face. She had really been scolded too much by Xiaoli and didn't even dare to speak up anymore.

Xiaoli glared at Ye Xi, letting out a cold snort, "You're always taking the princess's side."

"Don't be too happy just yet. This man said that there are people inside the city, but also outside. We captured those outside the city, but if they don't receive any news from inside, they will surely become suspicious. We need to find a way to capture all of them outside the city and eliminate them completely."

Li Wuyan said seriously, looking at these people, such a large house, it's unreasonable to only have a dozen or so people.

"These days, we can't relax our guard. There are likely more than just these people in the city. If news gets out, the outcome will be the same."

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi, "You take people back first, immediately seal the city gates, and check everyone entering and leaving strictly. We must prevent the news from spreading."

Yèxī responded and left with the people.

Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li and Li Wu Yan, "Tonight we catch them, no matter how many people from Empress Cen are still outside the city, at least let them know that we already know they exist. Whether or not we can uproot them, they should be too afraid to act for now."

It's getting late, why don't you head back to the county office By this time, Dugu City should still be awake.

Feng Lingxi gave him a withering look, "Xiao Li, return to the manor."

Falling petals brushed his lips, and looking at Feng Lingxi now, she was much more adorable than before.

However, why was he so intimate when speaking to Feng Lingxi Li Wuyan didn't react at all. He didn't seem to care about how he spoke to Feng Lingxi like thatanquin."Your Majesty, I have arrived."Li Shang extended his hand, Feng Ling Xi looked at the outstretched hand and walked out of the palanquin. The carefully dressed beauty fell into Li Shang's eyes,...
