Chapter 562: Conspiracy 49

e was truly disappointed in Dugu City.She thought that when the King returned and knew his wife was pregnant, he would be overjoyed. However, she never expected that before she could utter a word, she..."The medicinal effect is probably ruined."

Xiao Li hung her head, staring at the wound on her arm. "I worked so hard to bring back this Tian Shan Snow Lotus, but it turns out to be useless."

Feng Lingxi shook her head, "It's not useless either."

"Your Highness, didn't you just say the medicine's effects were ruined How come..."

Ye Xi asked out Xia Li's doubts and nodded in agreement.

Think about it, since Tian Shan Xue Lian has lost its medicinal effect, why would Dugu Yu still want to destroy it

Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes rolled, scanning over Ye Xi and Xiao Li who were dumbfounded. Her beautiful eyes darkened; if her guess was correct, Dugu Yu wanted to destroy the Tianshan Snow Lotus. It was nothing more than not wanting her to know what kind of poison he had given her. These days, she had been here, Dugu Yu must have known, and also knew that her poison hadn't been cured yet. Therefore, he wanted to destroy her only clue to finding out the poison.

After all this time together, she knew that he would definitely come back here to find her. It just depended on how long he could keep it up.

"I don't understand."

Little Li glanced at Ye Xi, seeing that he was also puzzled. She shook her head toward Feng Lingxi, her eyes full of confusion, "May I ask the princess to clarify."

"I'm afraid I might find out what kind of poison he put in the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus."

Feng Ling xi shook her head at Xiao Li. After this trip, following Ye Xi, how did her brain become so unsharp This wasn't difficult before, was it

Little Li suddenly understood. Looking at the Queen's helpless eyes, she lowered her head and glanced at her own arm. She lowered her head and secretly despised herself fiercely.

"Ye Xi, how did you come back with Xiao Li"

"The princess said that the prince had sent his subordinates back to the palace to keep an eye on things, saying that the Third Prince might go to the palace, so they went back to keep watch. Unexpectedly, the prince's guess was right."

Feng Lingxi frowned, "Does Dugu City know that Dugu Yu will go to the Prince's Mansion to steal Tian Shan Xue Lian"

Ye Xi nodded, looking at the frown on the queen's face, and whispered, "Does the queen really think the king doesn't know anything" The king was very intelligent. The queen sent Xiao Li away from the manor, Ye Su told the king, and he naturally followed back.

"Was that what Yuesu said"

Hearing the princess's words, Ye Xi widened her eyes, looking utterly incredulous. "How did the princess know it was Ye Su"

"Doesn't Dugu Cheng like sending Ye Su to follow me in secret"

If she had known about Ye Su's existence earlier, she wouldn't have bothered to seek out the Yao people.

Ye Xi lowered her head and corrected in a low voice, "The prince did all that to protect the princess, fearing something might happen to her."

"I know, and I don't blame him."

Ye Xi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for the King. She didn't know if the Princess was truly not angry or just holding back her anger, waiting for the King to return before unleashing it. Thinking about how imposing the Princess had been when she first entered, Ye Xi felt chills down her spine. Looking at the Princess's expression, she couldn't help but feel that the King was going to have a very rough time when he came back.

"Little Li, you two go down first and let Ye Xi take care of his wounds."

"Still, let your subordinates handle it. You should focus on recovering."

Ye Xi hurriedly got up and went out. He absolutely didn't dare to let Xiao Li help him. What if the princess had other intentions Then wouldn't he be even worse off

Xiao Li saw Ye Xi flee in a panic and was too lazy to pay him any mind.

"Your Majesty, perhaps the Tian Shan Snow Lotus sensed something amiss"

Feng Lingxi opened the Tianshan snow lotus, took out a handkerchief to cover her nose, and put the Tianshan snow lotus aside. She then took out a silver needle and placed it on top. The silver needle touched the powder but did not show any signs of poisoning. Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li, "You go sleep for a while, I'll study this."

"This slave is not tired, I will stay and help the Princess."

This powder is so dangerous, how can you rest assured leaving the Princess alone here to research it.

"I'm already poisoned. This powder doesn't harm me anymore."

Feng Lingxi waved her hand, "Go rest for a while, you'll be busy later."

Xiao Li was driven out, and Feng Lingxi closed the door and continued her research.

The Yao people and Yè Sù were protecting her in the shadows. What did she have to fear Moreover, this powder wasn't highly poisonous; all she needed was to determine its composition.

When Dugu City returned from outside, he learned that Xiaoli was attacked while taking the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus. After inquiring with Ye Xi, he learned the reason for the incident and became even more certain of what he had in mind.

"Keep sending people to watch Dugu Yu, and on Xier's side, have Ye Su keep a close eye on her. Dugu Yu might come here to look for Xier."

The banquet for the tribute envoys is about to begin, and Xi'er cannot be indisposed.

"My subordinate understands and has already instructed Yesu, but the Princess is aware that Yesu is secretly protecting her."

Du Gucheng frowned, Ye Xi hurriedly said, "My lord, I really didn't say anything."

"Looks like I can't hide it from Xier anymore."

Ye Xi nodded, the princess was too cunning, how could she possibly hide it.

"My Lord, shall we tell the Princess about our investigation I think if we tell her now, perhaps she won't be angry anymore." This was followed by the realization that, unfortunately, the Lord would probably be scolded by the Princess again.

"Xi'er is currently busy taking care of herself, this King will go and have a look."

獨孤城快步朝著風淩兮的房間走去，來到房門口的時候，便看見除了夜溯之外的另一個人在暗處保護兮兒，見到獨孤城，那身影一閃，便躲了起來，獨孤城見夜溯點頭，也沒有追問。

Dugu Cheng strode towards Feng Lingxi's room. When he reached the door, he saw another figure besides Ye Su protecting Xi'er in the shadows. Seeing Dugu Cheng, the figure flashed and disappeared. Dugu Cheng nodded at Ye Su and did not pursue the matter further.

Xier's people won't ask too many questions as long as they have no ill intentions.

The door creaked open, and Dugu Cheng walked in. Feng Lingxi, who was alerted by the sound, hurriedly got up. Seeing it was Dugu Cheng, she jumped in fright and quickly said, "Dugu Cheng, why didn't you knock on the door when you came in You scared me."

She still thought it was Xiao Li, looking at the Tianshan Snow Lotus on the table, Dugucheng's brows furrowed slightly.

"Are you on trial medication"

Feng Lingxi still had powder from the snow lotus at the foot of Tianshan Mountain on her hands, she looked at the black line on her wrist and avoided Du Gucheng who was walking towards her quickly.

"獨孤城, don't get so close to me, I'm researching this poison."

"Xier, with your life on the line, you're testing this medicine!"

Du Gu Cheng was angry, he angrily questioned, Feng Ling Xi seeing him like this, did not feel anything wrong, "I've already been poisoned, this isn't testing the medicine with my own body, but trying to find an antidote."

“You…”

Du Gucheng was angered by her. Feng Lingxi saw this and walked to his face, explaining, "Du Gucheng, it is important for the person who was poisoned to research the components of the poison, and I have already found something."

Feng Lingxi's words made Dugu City's expression slightly improve. Looking at the seriousness in Feng Lingxi's eyes, it didn't seem like she was lying to him.

So, what kind of poison is this

"This poison powder on Dugu Yu's face is stained with corpse oil."

Dugu City looked puzzled. " Corpse oil"

Wind Lingxi nodded, “I don’t know where he got the courage to provoke these sorcery practitioners.”

"You're talking about the sorcery of the Western Regions"

Dugu Cheng frowned, seeing Feng Lingxi nod, his handsome face gloomy as water. "This king has long heard that there are such sorcery in the Western Regions, I didn't expect Dugu Yu to actually want to use such witchcraft, he is truly courting death."
