Chapter 556 Conspiracy 43

treated once more, avoiding her touch."Dugu City, this princess will give you another chance, will you marry this princess or not"Feng Lingxi's voice was loud. Ye Xi outside heard Feng Lingxi's words..."Xier, go and rest for a while. This king will guard here."

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's weary face, quite worried. She hadn't slept all night, her body couldn't take it, he felt heartache just looking at her.

Feng Lingxi stood up, only feeling a dizzy spell. Dugu Cheng supported her, Feng Lingxi shook her head, and before Dugu Cheng could speak, she said, "It's nothing, I'll take a nap. Huangfu Qingyun will call me when he wakes up."

"Alright, this king will stay by your side the whole time. You can rest assured."

Feng Lingxi responded and let Xiao Li support her to a nearby room to rest. After entering the room, Feng Lingxi covered her chest and hurriedly told Xiao Li, "Go to the pharmacy and get some medicine. Don't let Dugu Cheng know."

Feng Lingxi listed a dozen or so medicinal herbs, Xiaoli hurriedly took out paper and pen to write them down. Then she showed it to Feng Lingxi, who nodded in approval. Xiaoli then rushed out to gather the herbs.

Reaching into her bosom, Feng Lingxi pulled out a bottle and poured a pill into her mouth, swallowing it down. She leaned back against the bed, her face ashen. It was her own carelessness that had led to this; she hadn't noticed when Du Guyu’s poison would take effect.

Looking at the black line on her wrist, Feng Ling Xi's eyes turned cold. She wouldn't let him catch her off guard, or else she would definitely make Dugu Yu taste her power.

Xiao Li ran out, too fast and didn't notice, bumping into Ye Xi who had just come in. Looking at Xiao Li who rushed out, Ye Xi looked confused, "What are you doing"

Xiao Li hurriedly hid the prescription in her hand and said, “Help the princess fetch the medicine.”

"Shall I help you"

Xiao Li originally wanted to say what she needed, but when she thought of the princess's situation, she shook her head hastily, "No need, there are too many medicines this time, and you don't know them, go help the king." After finishing speaking, she ran away. Ye Xi frowned, returned to Du Gu Cheng's side, did not see the princess, and felt a little puzzled.

"My lord, when Prince Huafu was assassinated, no one in the manor saw anyone enter. We've searched inside and out, but found no clues. It seems we can only wait for Prince Huafu to wake up before we know who wounded him."

Dugu Cheng frowned slightly, "Things have come to this, there's no other way."

"By the way, Your Highness, I just saw Xiao Li rush out a moment ago, saying she was fetching medicine for the Crown Princess. What's wrong with the Crown Princess"

Dugu Cheng's body trembled, looking at Ye Xi, "Fetch medicine for Xi'er"

Ye Xi nodded, "Xiao Li's expression was flustered. I thought something was wrong with her, so I wanted to help her get some medicine. But Xiao Li said she would go herself."

獨孤城 pondered for a moment, then told Ye Xi, "Stay here and guard Huangfu Qingyun. Under no circumstances are you allowed to leave Huangfu Qingyun's side. This king will go see Xi'er."

Ye Xi responded, and Dugu Cheng hurriedly went to Feng Lingxi's room. He pushed open the door and saw Feng Lingxi leaning against the bedside, her face pale and bloodless. He was frightened and rushed over, "Xi'er."

Feng Lingxi heard the shout and her beautiful eyes furrowed slightly. Seeing it was Dugu Cheng, she hurriedly said, "How did you get here Where's Huangfu Qingyun"

"This king had Ye Xi guarding it, Xier, what is wrong with you"

Feng Lingxi endured the discomfort in her body, "I'm just tired and sleepy. Rest for a while and I'll be fine. You quickly go guard Huangfu Qingyun, he can't have anything happen."

"Rest assured, I've ordered Ye Xi to stay by your side at all times. As for you, get some proper rest."

Feng Lingxi hummed in response and closed her eyes again.

"Your hands are too cold," Wind Lingxi said, her voice barely a whisper as she slowly opened her eyes. This reaction left Dugu Cheng bewildered. He gently placed her on the bed and tucked her in, watching her pale face with concern. He held her hand, but Wind Lingxi instinctively pulled it away.

Dugu Cheng touched his own back, "How could this be, Xier you..."

Feng Ling Xi closed her eyes again, the look of exhaustion and fatigue made Du Gu Cheng feel very distressed. He reached out to touch her forehead, but was pulled back by the heat, "Xi'er, you have a fever."

Feng Lingxi has already fallen asleep. His face is pale, and if he hadn't reached out to touch him, he wouldn't have known that Xi'er had a fever. He must have caught a chill last night after sleeping all night without any cover.

"Your Highness, the medicine is here."

Little Li ran in, seeing Dugu City guarding by the bed, she was so frightened that the medicine pouch in her hand fell to the ground. Dugu City's gaze fell on the medicine pouch on the ground, his handsome eyebrows furrowed, "Xier, what medicine did you grab"

Xiao Li hastily picked up the medicine bag, her expression flustered. Dugu City shouted in a stern voice, "Speak."

"My Lord."

Xiao Li knelt down with a thud, clutching the medicine bag in her hand, but she was agonizing over it.

The Consort did not say what the medicine was for, she only wrote out a prescription and had her maidservant prepare it.

"Having followed Xi'er for so long, you know what this medicine is for, don't you"

Xiaoli lowered her head, her heart pounding. Even if she knew, she couldn't say it. The princess had said not to let the king know. If she told him, the princess would be unhappy.

"Hemostasis, anti-inflammatory, blood replenishing."

Dugu Cheng frowned, Xi'er gave these medicines to Huangfu Qingyun

"Bring me the medicine."

Du Gucheng ordered, Xiao Li gritted her teeth and took it over. She watched Du Gucheng open the medicine bag and saw more than ten kinds of medicinal materials inside. Her brows furrowed. She didn't know what use these medicinal materials would have together, but since they were for stopping bleeding and inflammation, they should be for Huangfu Qingyun.

"Has the queen consort asked you to make a decoction for Prince Huangfu"

"Xiao Li shook her head, "The princess ordered the servant to bring him back for her. The princess knows that the king is a pharmacist and how this medicine should be used is only known by the princess."

"Xier has a fever, go get some hot water to rub on her."

Xiao Li heard that the princess had a fever, so she hurriedly took out a bottle from her bosom and took out a pill, “Your Highness, this is the fever-reducing medicine researched by the princess. Please give it to the princess quickly.”

After Dugong City gave the pill to Feng Lingxi, he looked at Xiao Li's anxious expression, "Take good care of Xi'er, this king will be back in a while."

Xiao Li responded, seeing Dugu Cheng get up, she hurriedly squatted in front of the princess's bed and quickly reached out with her hand to feel the princess's forehead. Then, she went aside and poured hot water into a basin to apply to her forehead.

Dugu City stepped out of the door but didn't leave. Instead, he hid by the door and watched Xiaoli's movements.

She picked up a pot for decocting medicine, poured the herbs into it, and hurriedly carried it to the stove fire. After the medicine was boiled, she quickly cooled it and walked to the bedside, supporting Feng Lingxi in her arms and carefully feeding her the medicine.

Dugu Cheng clenched his fist, watching Xiao Li finish feeding him the medicine. He could no longer hold back and rushed in. Xiao Li saw it was Dugu Cheng and dropped the bowl in her hand to the ground, shattering it into pieces.

"Wang... Wangye."

"Xiao Li, what on earth is going on Didn't you say that Yaoxi didn't make you administer the medicine to her"

Xiaoli was frightened by Dugu City, and hurriedly knelt down, her body trembling.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I did all of this according to the instructions given by the Princess."

"Xi'er, are you hiding this from me"

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, who was still burning with fever. He clenched his fists tightly. Why didn't Xi tell him when something happened Did she not believe in him

"Your Highness, please don't misunderstand. The Crown Princess doesn't distrust you, but she's worried about your well-being, so she instructed me not to tell you."
