ews. The emperor has decreed that the fourth young lady will be married to the Fourth Prince, and the wedding will take place in seven days.""What!"Zhang heard this, her head spun, and she almost fain...Feng Lingxi returned to the room with the medicine, and Dugu City lay down again, coughing twice, his handsome face becoming even paler.
"Where's Ye Xi Wasn't he supposed to be taking care of you"
Feng Lingxi didn't see Ye Xi, frowned and asked, "Could it be that Ye Xi also saw Dugu Cheng was ill and rebelled"
"This king has sent him off to run some errands. He can't just stay here all the time."
Du Gu Cheng struggled to sit up, Feng Ling Xi put down the medicine bowl and hurried forward to help him sit up. Du Gu Cheng panted, his face ashen. Feng Ling Xi held the medicine to his lips and blew on it, then used a spoon to feed him.
Such a look made Dugu City feel uneasy, it was hard to believe.
“Xier, this king will come himself.”
"Open your mouth."
Wind Ling Xi opened her mouth and fed him the medicine, one spoonful at a time. Dugu City drank the bitter medicine, it was so bitter that it was hard to swallow, but because Wind Ling Xi personally fed him the medicine, Dugu City didn't feel bitter at all, even, his heart was sweet.
"After you finish taking your medicine, rest well."
"Xier, is there anything else"
Dugu Cheng held Feng Lingxi's hand, not wanting her to leave. Seeing this, Feng Lingxi took his hand away, "Of course there is, you rest for a while yourself."
"I have no one around me now, aren't you afraid someone might harm me"
Feng Lingxi frowned and turned to look at Dugu City, who looked pale and sickly. "Then I'll ask Lu Nian to find someone to take care of you, and I'll go take care of some business."
"Your Majesty will accompany you."
Dugu City grabbed Feng Lingxi's hand, unwilling to let go. He didn't want her to leave like this.
"No, I can go by myself. Besides, I'm already at home, so I won't leave."
Feng Ling Xi took back her hand from Du Gu Cheng's grasp, looking at him as he stared intently at her. His pale face made Feng Ling Xi feel a pang of sympathy, but she didn't want to stay.
"Get some rest."
Feng Lingxi got up and dashed out, unwilling to spend too much time with him. There was no argument about this; they both felt awkward being together.
Feng Lingxi shook her head and went to prepare medicine for Nian Li.
At night, the silence was like water. After finishing her work, Feng Lingxi returned to her room. She didn't see the three little ghosts, Wan'er. Feng Lingxi yawned and felt a bit sleepy.
"Sister, come have some soup."
Lu Nian held a bowl of soup and came in, seeing Feng Lingxi full of fatigue, her face etched with concern.
"Big brother, why aren't you asleep yet"
Li Nian sat down beside her, "Drink this and I'll go to sleep. I see you're busy today, you must be exhausted, right"
"Well, Dugu Cheng's condition is improving, and it's not too tiring. It's just that Feng Yu Xi's daughter, after I cured her poison, I was thinking about whether to help Feng Yu Xi detoxify." Feng Ling Xi sighed, holding the soup in front of her, blowing on it before taking a sip.
"Don't you hate her Why are you still helping her with the antidote If she dies, she dies. She's going to be a nuisance if she stays."
"That's true, but her child is so young. You say Feng Yu Xi really died, how pitiful that child must be."
Feng Ling Xi let out a light sigh, “Furthermore, Yu Xi sent me many messages. I’m starting to wonder if I should save her once more.”
"Worth her and her swap life message"
Feng Lingxi bit her lip. Could these messages offset what Yu Xi had done to her, could they save her life
The answer is certainly no, but she felt sorry for the child. The child was innocent.
Of course, if there's no news worth risking your life for, why would you care about her life or death Don't forget, it was she who pushed you off the cliff all those years ago. If not for your good fortune and resilience back then, you wouldn't be sitting here talking to me today.
Lu Nian disagreed with Feng Lingxi's treatment of Feng Yu Xi. That woman, he had already spared her life out of mercy, yet he wanted to save her How ridiculous.
Feng Ling Xi's beautiful eyes dimmed slightly, "I know what you said, I just said the child is pitiful. Maybe after becoming a mother, her heart isn't as cold and ruthless as it used to be."
"All of this, the wind and rain tonight, is self-inflicted. Her child will have others to raise him, sister, you must remember, don't let yourself be harmed by momentary softness. Today you save her from fire and water, but one day she may turn on you, not even leaving you a bone."
"I know, from now on, I won't mention this again."
Feng Lingxi's eyes dimmed slightly. Lu Nian was right. She knew the kind of person Yu Xi was. The child she had saved, and as for Yu Xi, wouldn't Luo Li let her go
"By the way, I just heard that Dugu City has started coughing again. You should go take a look. His health seems to have deteriorated a lot. After all, he's Wan'er's father, so you should check on him."
"Another cough"
Feng Lingxi frowned, filled with doubt. "It's impossible. I treated him today, and he should have stopped coughing after taking my medicine. Did someone else provoke him"
"I don't know about that. I wasn't always with him, so I'm not too sure."
Feng Lingxi got up. "Then I'll go see him."
I wonder if Dugu City has fallen asleep.
"Shall I go with you then"
Lu Nian stood up and deliberately yawned, feigning tiredness.
"It's okay, I'll just go myself. You should rest first. I'll be back soon."
"Then be careful yourself, and call them if anything happens." Lu Nian threw down a sentence and left first. Feng Lingxi frowned, how did this Lu Nian look intentional
Never mind, let's go see what's happening with Dugu City first. We don't want him to get into real trouble.
Feng Lingxi hurried to Dugu City's courtyard, seeing that the candlelight was still burning, and there was no one at the door. Feng Lingxi frowned and walked over, standing at the door, conflicted about whether to go in and take a look
Then, Dugu City didn't cough. What if he was fine If she went in to check on him, wouldn't he misunderstand
It was late at night, the wind howled. Feng Lingxi raised her hand, hesitated for a moment, and didn't knock on the door.
"Ahem..."
The sound of coughing came from inside the house, Feng Ling Xi's heart clenched. This was really a cough, where did Xi go this night
"Ahem..."
Another violent cough came, and Feng Lingxi couldn't help but knock on the door and push it open to enter. "Why are you coughing so badly."
"Xier"
Feng Lingxi endured the cough, looking at the incoming Feng Lingxi in surprise. It was so late, why did she come
"I heard Lu Nian say that you had a bad cough today, and I didn't believe it. I didn't expect you to really cough so badly."
Dugu City was supporting himself trying to get up, Feng Lingxi quickly stepped forward and helped him, "Don't get up, let me take a look at you."
Feng Lingxi sat beside him, grabbed his wrist and seriously felt his pulse. Her brows furrowed tightly, after a while she asked, "What's wrong with you Have you been stimulated again"
"It's nothing, just... ahem."
Dugu Cheng couldn't hold back and started coughing again. At night, his cough was especially bad, particularly tonight.
"Even though things are like this, you still say you're fine. You really worry me. Sit down quickly, I'll make something for you..."
Feng Lingxi's words were not yet finished when Dugu Cheng grabbed her hand, "Xi'er, there's no need."ntment."Your Highness, the Emperor summons you to the palace for an audience."Huangpu Qingyun turned to Feng Lingxi and said, "You wait at the mansion, I'll be back from the palace soon."Feng Lingxi n...
