Chapter 1489: Glazed Purple Star 28

ext to hers, and she didn't need anyone to wait on her. Tomorrow morning there was a tough battle ahead, so how could she fight if she didn't get a good rest"Your Highness, your servant will stay her...Feng Lingxi's sudden apology made Lu Nian feel uncomfortable all over.

"What are you doing Why are you apologizing to me out of the blue This feels weird, just curse at me like you normally do."

Feng Lingxi let out a giggle, and Lu Nian, seeing her smile, grinned back foolishly.

"That's really not comfortable."

"Eat quickly, the food is getting cold."

Feng Lingxi saw tears in Lu Nian's eyes. She knew that although he said it like that, he truly listened to her words in his heart.

For five years, her disappearance truly tormented Lu Nian, to the point where he foolishly wasted his precious time searching for her, neglecting his own lifelong pursuits.

After dinner, Feng Lingxi went downstairs with Tao Su and did not look to see if Dugu Cheng had left. Just like she told Tao Su when they first went out, she was going to buy clothes for her. Feng Siyu and Feng Siqi were seriously helping to choose, and they even bought two pieces for Lu Nian. Only then were they satisfied and left.

Back at General Feng's residence, Feng Aotian hadn't returned yet. Feng Lingxi asked Tao Su to take the children out to play while she went to find her grandfather with the freshly bought osmanthus cakes. As soon as she entered the room, she heard her grandfather coughing. Feng Lingxi immediately put down the osmanthus cakes and ran forward.

"Grandpa, why is there no one here Wasn't it supposed to be a waiting area"

"Grandpa is fine, don't worry."

The old general finished his words in one breath, leaning against the bedside couch, his breath shallow and his complexion poor.

Feng Lingxi hurriedly grabbed her grandfather's hand to take his pulse. The pulse was weak, it seemed that his time was truly running out.

"Grandpa, shall I give you acupuncture Xi'er's acupuncture skills are still pretty good. The methods my master taught me before can cure..."

The old General Feng clutched Feng Lingxi’s hand, “Girl, stop this. Grandfather knows his own body. These days you’ve been giving me medicine, but it hasn’t worked. A body riddled with illness like mine won’t last much longer.”

Feng Lingxi forced out a smile and comforted, "Grandpa, don't talk nonsense. I'm very good at medicine, you have to believe me."

General Feng shook his head, refusing to let Feng Lingxi administer the acupuncture. He knew his time was short. These days, being able to see Xi'er had already brought him contentment. Though he felt the changes in his body, he was at peace.

"Stay and chat with grandpa for a while."

Feng Lingxi responded, but she couldn't even manage a fake smile.

Though you are not my grandfather's biological granddaughter, in my grandfather's heart, you are his own granddaughter.

"Grandpa, Xi'er is your granddaughter, always has been. As long as Grandpa acknowledges me, I am your granddaughter."

Feng Lingxi clutched her grandfather's hand, her eyes welling up with tears. She shouldn't have returned so late; if she had come back sooner, perhaps her grandfather would still be alive. It was her fault for being late.

The old general patted her hand and looked at Feng Lingxi, his old face full of contentment.

"Grandpa, it's truly a blessing to have you back. There are no regrets."

"Grandpa, don't say that. It's all Xi'er being unfilial. I only came back now. Xi'er is guilty. Can you please give Xi'er a chance to make it up to you"

Seeing her grandfather like this, Feng Lingxi is terrified that he will suddenly pass away and leave her.

"Grandpa is old, he has seen so many great-grandchildren, he is content."

Feng Lingxi lowered her head, tears streaming down her face. She didn't dare to look up, afraid that her grandfather would see.

"Xi'er, there's one more thing Grandpa is worried about, and that's your lifelong affairs. Grandpa knows you have feelings in your heart and don't want to be with the Prince of Chen, but you already have three children with him. Those three children can't grow up without a father."

Feng Ling held her fists, tears streaming down her cheeks. She understood everything her grandfather said, but she couldn't refuse him in front of him, afraid that he would be upset and leave. But she couldn't agree to be with Dugu City either. This wouldn't just be deceiving her grandfather, it would also be hurting herself.

"Think it through carefully. The road ahead is long."

Feng Lingxi nodded, tears falling even more fiercely.

"What a silly child."

The old general trembled as he reached out to wipe the tears from Feng Ling Xi's eyes, "Grandpa is fine, why are you crying"

Feng Lingxi looked at her grandfather, wanting to hold back tears, but the tears wouldn't listen and kept falling harder.

"Grandpa, Xier bought you some delicious osmanthus cake. Would you like to try some"

"Good."

The old general looked at Feng Lingxi. Seeing her get up and offer him osmanthus cake, he thought to himself that she was too thin. These years, raising a child alone must have been very hard on her.

"Grandpa, have a bite."

Feng Lingxi held a osmanthus cake to her grandfather's lips, supporting it with one hand and feeding it with the other. The old general took a bite, chewed contentedly, and looked at Feng Lingxi, his eyes reddening.

"Grandpa, what would you like to eat tonight Xier can cook it for you."

"Xier will eat whatever grandpa cooks."

Feng Lingxi nodded, tears turning into a smile, "Then Xi'er will make what Grandpa is best at."

"Okay."

The atmosphere had improved considerably under the warm setting. After a few bites, Grandpa couldn't eat any more. Wind Ling Xi fed him water after which Grandpa went to sleep. Wind Ling Xi only then came out of the room, but saw Du Gu Cheng standing outside the door. Seeing Wind Ling Xi come out, Du Gu Cheng quickly explained, "This King came to see the old General."

"My grandfather has just gone to sleep. Thank you for your kind thought, Prince Chen."

Such polite words, Dugu Cheng felt his heart knotting in his chest, but he didn't dare to get any closer.

"How is the General's health Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you."

The imperial physician brought by Crown Prince Wang has already given the answer, hasn't he He doesn't have much time left. The Crown Prince can return to the capital to meet his obligations.

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, then beckoned a maidservant over and instructed, "Have someone wait inside the room. Grandfather can't be without company by his side."

"Yes, Fourth Miss."

After the maidservant paid her respects to Dugu City, she entered the room.

Feng Lingxi walked towards the kitchen, Dugu City following behind. "There are still matters on my side that need to be dealt with, so I can't return to the capital these days," he said. "However, there is one thing about you that I want to tell you..."

Wind Ling's footsteps came to a halt, watching Du Gu City immediately retreat. The extreme tightness in his demeanor caused the anger within Wind Ling to dissipate.

"Go ahead."

"Just..."

Dugu Cheng was nervous, watching Feng Lingxi standing before him, listening to him so seriously. He felt unreal, his mind went blank for a moment.

If the Crown Prince has nothing else, I shall take my leave.

"Wait a moment."

獨孤城 quickly stepped forward and grabbed Feng Ling Xi's arm. Seeing Feng Ling Xi stop, he hurriedly let go and said hastily, "It's like this, the assassins you encountered on your way here were sent by the Empress Dowager. This king was unaware of it, and moreover, her purpose was to take away your child."

Feng Lingxi stared at Dugu City, her gaze made Dugu City's heart flutter. He must not have said anything wrong.

Xi'er's eyes, he's all flustered, he didn't say anything wrong, did he

“The Crown Prince is quite straightforward. Then please tell the Empress Dowager, my children, Feng Lingxi’s children, are something she can't have. If she truly wants to fight for them, I, Feng Lingxi, will accompany her every step of the way. Besides, if she needs grandchildren, let her give birth herself. Don't covet mine.”ks we wouldn't dare to act because we are all soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty. But our constant concessions only make them more daring in their treatment of us."I think the same way, Xi'er. Take good car...
