Chapter 531 Conspiracy 18
changing into a sickly appearance lying on the bed. Dugu Cheng was watching her sudden transformation and just about to speak when he saw the Crown Princess walk in.Feng Lingxi struggled to get up, b...The Queen informed her subordinates to relay a message to the Prince, stating that she was safe at the Third Prince's Residence. She had made a deal with the Third Prince: she would provide an antidote for the Third Princess, and in return, he would help her find Empress Dowager Shu’s whereabouts.
"Mother has returned. But what about you, how did you get hurt"
Speaking of this, Ye Xi hurriedly sat up and excitedly grabbed the King's arm, "Your Highness, it was the Third Prince, his men injured my subordinates. Yesterday night, my subordinate came out of the Princess's room and as soon as he left the Third Prince's residence, he was targeted by the Third Prince's men. They chased him all the way, and my subordinate fought with them, getting badly injured and nearly losing his life. They wanted to kill my subordinate to silence him."
"Did you see Dugu Yu"
Night Xi shook her head, "The subordinate found this on the black-clothed man."
Ye Xi handed the token to the prince and watched as he gazed at the "Yu" engraved on it. Dugu Cheng narrowed his eyes, "Why would he want to kill you There must be a reason for him to silence you, just because you went to deliver a message to Xi'er"
"My subordinates aren't quite sure why, but those men in black are relentlessly pursuing them. This token also points towards the Third Prince."
Ye Xi had over a dozen sword wounds on her body, which were right in front of him. Dugu Cheng couldn't ignore the fact that Dugu Yu wanted to kill Ye Xi and silence her. He just didn't know the reason. It couldn't be because Ye Xi went to deliver a message to Xi'er.
"My lord, who kidnapped Lady Shu Is she alright"
"Mother is fine, but she doesn't know who kidnapped her."
Dugu Cheng looked at Ye Xi's pale face, "Take good care of your injuries. The other matters, this king will leave to Ye Su to handle."
Ye Xi nodded, and the King started deploying his Night Guards, so he could recuperate with peace of mind.
"Ye Xi, has Xi'er asked you to convey anything to this king"
Ye Xi hurriedly said, “Just now what my subordinate said is what the princess and my subordinate said. By the way, the princess also told me to remind your Highness not to worry and to take good care of yourself.”
Dugu City patted his shoulder, "This king knows you need to recuperate well."
Leaving Ye Xi's room, Du Gucheng returned to his own. Glancing at the sky outside, his mother had just returned. If he were to go see Xi'er now, it would take two or three hours on a snowy road. What if something unexpected happened along the way It would truly be chaotic.
"Trace the night."
A shadowy figure stood behind Dugu City like a ghost. Dugu City turned and looked at him, “You go to the San Wangfu and secretly protect the safety of the princess. Don't expose your identity unless absolutely necessary.”
Ye Su's figure was like the wind, disappearing in an instant before Dugu City's face, as if he had never appeared.
"Xier, wait for this king."
Feng Lingxi sneezed, and Xiao Li immediately draped a fox fur cloak over her. "Your Highness, be careful not to catch a cold. Put this on."
Feng Lingxi picked up the medicinal herbs and looked at the three Concubines bathing in the tub, “The fox fur cloak is too heavy, it's cumbersome, just bring another brazier over and place it beside.”
Xiao Li looked at the busy figure of the princess, her eyes filled with discontent.
"My lady, how is it that you always become so lost in your potion-making It's a cold day today, no snow falling, yet this melting snow, my feet are frozen stiff!"
"Cold"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Feng Lingxi struck first, looking at the boots on Xiao Li's feet and frowning slightly.
"I'll improve your boots for you later."
Feng Lingxi patted her head, “Go and bring the brazier over here. Don't let the temperature in the room get too low. Be careful with San Wangfei's medicine, make sure the water temperature is just right, don't freeze it.” Feng Lingxi instructed, then walked over, feeling the water temperature, and called out to the maid at the door, “Bring the medicine over here.”
The Third Princess was drowsy, these past few days of herbal baths had tortured her whole being, but she could feel it was a bit better than the previous two days.
Feng Lingxi's detoxification method was although difficult to endure, it was far better than drinking medicine.
Feng Ling Xi prepared the medicinal herbs, rubbing her hands that were almost frozen stiff, when she heard footsteps outside and the voice of Dugu Yu. Feng Ling Xi saw Dugu Yu walk in, glanced at Feng Ling Xi, and his gaze fell on San Wang Fei's body.
"My lord."
When San Wangfei saw Dugu Yu appear, she weakly greeted him. Dugu Yu looked at her pale face and worriedly stroked her hair, "My beloved, don't be afraid, Si Wangfei's medical skills are superb, she can cure you."
The Third Princess nodded, her head swimming from the fumes of the medicinal water.
"How did the Third Prince return so early There's still half an hour left for the medicinal bath."
Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, looking at the maidservant carrying the medicine water in, and went forward to heat the water. Dugu Yu watched from the side, his attitude towards Feng Lingxi was still quite satisfactory, at least her attitude towards Wan'er was genuine.
"The Shutai concubine has returned to the Fourth Prince's residence. I came to tell you that."
"Mother, have you found it"
Feng Lingxi’s hand movements froze, excitedly looking at Dugu Yu. Seeing him nod, she eagerly asked, “Are you sure it’s true”
"My people have confirmed that Imperial Noble Consort Shu has returned to the Fourth Prince's residence. She was found at the Guanyin Temple, perhaps those who kidnapped her realized things had escalated and sent her back there. It was the abbot who informed my fourth younger brother, who brought her back early this morning."
"As long as my mother is safe, that's all that matters. No matter what happens, as long as my mother is unharmed, I will keep my promise and give the Third Princess the antidote. However, I need the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus."
Now that she knew her mother was well, she was at ease.
This Dugu Yu spoke clearly, as if he had done this himself. Who knows if he intentionally sent his mother back to the Guanyin Temple to notify Dugu Cheng to pick someone up However, this method is quite clever, coming and going without a trace.
Upon hearing of the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, Third Royal Consort's eyelids slightly lifted. She reached out and grabbed Duke Dugu, shaking her head. "Your Highness,"
This day, the preciousness of the Tian Shan Snow Lotus was not unknown to her. Even if she needed the Tian Shan Snow Lotus to cure her illness, she would rather remain in this state.
Dugu Yu patted her back, comforting her, "Wan'er, you just focus on recovering. This king will find a way to deal with the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, don't worry."
The Third Princess' eyes were filled with pleas. Duke Duguo gently stroked her hair on her forehead, his gaze soft as he watched her shake her head, her face full of refusal. He turned to Feng Lingxi and said, "I will find a way about the Tian Shan Snow Lotus matter. I have also met your request. The rest is up to the Fourth Princess."
"I speak what counts."
Feng Lingxi looked at the nervous expression of the Third Princess and took out a golden needle from her sleeve, “Third Princess, give me your hand.”
The Third Royal Consort looked at Feng Lingxi, her eyes filled with pleading. "Fourth Royal Consort, please don't go through with the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus. I can't bear to have His Royal Highness seek it out for me. I…"
Before the Third Princess could finish her words, she fainted. Dugu Yu rushed forward, looking extremely anxious. Feng Lingxi calmly said, "Third Prince, don't worry. I only gave her a needle to make her sleep soundly."
Dugu Yu looked at Feng Lingxi, "The matter of the Tian Shan snow lotus is probably not so easy to get, but this king will find a way."
“I suddenly thought of a person who has Tian Shan snow lotus, that is the current Lord Noble Consort Long. You can try asking her.”
