Widower

Feng Lingxi heard these three words and couldn't help but sneer.

It's really interesting, she lost her virginity to someone else last night, and today she was married off to the war-dead lord.

"Miss, are you alright Perhaps you should ask your master to plead with the Emperor..."

"Xiao Li, do you think my father wouldn't know about such a big event as the eldest daughter getting married"

Feng Lingxi interrupted Xiaoli's words, looking at her slightly red eyes. This girl was quite concerned about her. It seemed that the original owner had arranged a good maidservant for her.

Xiao Li was stunned and fell silent.

The emperor betrothed her to him, probably thinking she was naive and foolish, and as the eldest daughter of the Feng family, marrying the War God general was fitting for his son.

In Feng Lingxi's memory, her father wasn't home very often. He spent most of his time with the so-called War God, Wang Ye, waging war outside.

This emperor's arranged marriage, to say he didn't know about it, she definitely wouldn't believe.

"Miss…" Xiaoli's tears streamed down her face, "Xiaoli will go find Madam to think of a way."

"Hold on!"

Feng Lingxi reached out and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, "Why are you crying It's just a marriage to a deceased king, isn't it I'm not being buried with him, so why cry"

This woman, now that she's lost her virginity, if she were to marry into a good family, she would at least be the war god's consort. Her life might be much better than it is here. Besides, she didn't intend to stay here forever.

"Miss, are you getting married"

Feng Lingxi pulled Xiao Li aside and, while Liu shi hadn't found her yet, asked for clarification.

"Little Li, I ask you, how does the emperor treat the War God"

"Of course, the Fourth Prince is the Emperor's most beloved son."

The most beloved prince, so to speak, life after marriage definitely won't be too miserable.

"Go out and find out now, if my father has news of returning to the capital."

If she were to get married, her father would definitely have to return. She couldn't disobey the imperial decree, so she'd have to scrape together some money before leaving, otherwise, it would be a loss.

Xiaoli hurriedly wiped away her tears and went to do as she was told.

Feng Lingxi changed into a new outfit and went to the dining hall for a meal. As soon as she reached the front hall, she saw Liu Shi walking up with a smiling face, taking her hand and laughing so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits.

"Xier, just now a message came from the palace that the Emperor wants to marry you off to the Fourth Prince. You little rascal are truly blessed, the imperial decree will arrive soon."

Feng Lingxi walked to the dining table and sat down. Feng Linglong smiled and walked over to sit beside her, "Fourth Sister, I'm truly envious of you. You're about to become the Fourth Princess Consort soon, congratulations."

"What are you envious of If elder sister likes it, I'll give you this position of the fourth princess."

If she didn't know that the four princes were dead, she might still think her and her daughter were truly envious of her. But now, those two must be wishing she would marry and become a widow as soon as possible.

Wind Linglong smiled and leaned closer, "Fourth Sister, you're really joking. Fourth Sister is the legitimate daughter of our Wind family. Only you are worthy of the Fourth Prince. Eldest Sister is a concubine, her status doesn't match."

Otherwise, I'll marry my elder sister and beg the Fourth Prince to take her as a concubine"

Feng Lingxi's words as soon as they left her mouth, Feng Linglong's smile on her face froze instantly. The suppressed anger burned fiercely between her brows, but she clenched her handkerchief tightly, preventing herself from erupting.

She can't afford to offend her now, or when she gets married, she'll really go to the emperor and plead for her to be married off to the Fourth Prince as a concubine. Wouldn't she then spend her life looking down And have to stay with her as a widow

"Si Mei, elder sister doesn't want to fight with you over men."

Feng Linglong grasped her hand, looking like sisters deeply bonded. “Little Sister Four, after you get married, Big Sister will visit often when I have time.”

Feng Lingxi retracted her hand and began to eat with her chopsticks. Liu shi hurriedly led the other children to the table, but her eyes remained fixed on Feng Lingxi.

She still thought she would know this thing about marrying and becoming a widow, but now it seems she doesn't seem to.

"Second Aunt, the Emperor has sent a marriage proposal. Will my father come back"

"Your father is already on his way back, and he'll be home in two days," Mrs. Liu hastily said with a smile.

Feng Lingxi responded and continued eating breakfast.

Liu had been observing Feng Lingxi's change in attitude ever since she woke up. Her personality had changed drastically, but fortunately, she was getting married soon, so it wouldn't affect her.

"Xier, your father will be back in two days. He never liked you going out and about, so just stay home these next two days. If you need anything, just ask, I'll take care of it."

Liu thought to herself, she had to calm her down first and prevent her from finding out about the Fourth Prince's death. Otherwise, if she knew, she would fight tooth and nail against marriage. At that time, defying the imperial decree would implicate them all, and she didn't want to die. No matter what, she had to coax her now.

"Second aunt, are you afraid that I will disobey the imperial decree and marry the Fourth Prince Then, I will implicate you and the General's Mansion"

After all, this disobedience is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine clans. The Liu family, fearing and trembling, are merely being implicated by her.

Mrs. Liu's expression was flustered, and she hurriedly accompanied her with a smile, saying, "Xi'er, this marriage is bestowed by the emperor, not to mention that Fourth Prince..."

"The Imperial Edict has arrived!"

A sharp sound came from outside the General's Mansion. Looking at Eunuch Zhao being escorted by palace maids and eunuchs, Feng Lingxi's eyes flashed with a hint of calculation.the Holy Lord What have you sacrificed for the Yao Clan I've sacrificed my whole life! Inside and outside this Yao Clan, where isn't everything taken care of by me"Your traitorous heart is plain for a...
