atery eyes landed on Feng Lingxi's neck. Seeing the marks on her neck, she clenched the handkerchief in her hand so tightly that she almost lost her composure. Last night Zhang MaMa was killed, and th...When the night was deep and everyone else was asleep, a man and woman were left alone in a room.

Dugu City couldn't help but cough twice, and he became much more nervous.

"Xier, this king's body is actually fine."

"Unbutton your shirt, I'll stitch you up."

Feng Lingxi calmly said, taking out a silver needle and putting it down. She then washed her hands in the basin nearby, preparing to give an acupuncture treatment.

Du Gu Cheng unbuttoned his clothes and lay on the bed, watching Feng Ling Xi walk over. His eyes were full of tenderness. He could see the difference between Xi'er when she first came back and now.

"Xier, are you afraid that this king will die from illness"

Feng Lingxi gave him a cold glance, her voice tinged with iciness, "Do you want to die"

"Of course not, this king still has many things to do. When I learned of your disappearance five years ago, this king felt that life and death were meaningless to me. If it weren't for Wan'er supporting this king, I'm afraid I would have been dead long ago."

"You can be quiet now."

Feng Lingxi coldly rebuked, "I don't like to be disturbed while I'm giving acupuncture."

"Okay."

Dugu Cheng really shut his mouth and let Feng Lingxi give him acupuncture. The acupuncture didn't hurt, but instead, he felt a sense of being cared for. Dugu Cheng knew that his heart had come back to life. These years, the Xi'er he had been desperately searching for had returned, and everything he had lost was coming back to life.

Sniffing the faint scent of medicine on Xi'er's body, looking at her stunning face and busy figure, Duguo Cheng felt that he was truly the happiest he had been in five years.

Half an hour later, Feng Lingxi gave Dugu City medicine and prepared to leave.

Dugu City grabbed her hand, "Xi'er, can you not leave today"

Feng Lingxi glanced at the hand holding her arm, her eyes turning cold. Dugu Cheng quickly let go and explained, "What I meant was, I wanted to talk to you."

"There's no need to rush. You can talk tomorrow. These few days, you still need my treatment. There's plenty of time. It's getting late, go to sleep."

Feng Lingxi opened the door and walked out, instructing Ye Xi, "Take good care of him, I'll bring him medicine tomorrow morning."

"Here comes the Princess."

Ye Xi glanced inside the room, then hurriedly stepped forward and sent Feng Lingxi out of the courtyard. She quickly asked, "Your Highness, this subordinate dares to ask, is the King's condition very serious"

Feng Lingxi nodded. "It's quite troublesome. His suppression is too severe, it's hurt his body, and he needs proper care. Also, don't let him fight, lest it worsen his condition."

"Your Highness, I know my station is low and I shouldn't speak out of turn, but may I have a few words with you"

"You're saying that your Lord has not been doing well these past years"

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi, "You don't need to say it, I can see it myself. Let's focus on getting his body healthy first, and then we can talk. He hid this from me, I will ask him, you don't need to answer."

Yè Xī excitedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness. I will thank the Prince for you."

"Go back."

Feng Ling Xi left, leaving behind the message Du Gu Cheng gave to her mother. For five years, he had been searching for news of his mother, never giving up, even when she hadn't gone out looking for their mother in those five years.

Dugu City, I hope everything you said is true. These past five years, have you been protecting me

Feng Lingxi returned to the room, took out the whistle from her neck, blew it a few times, and soon, a black shadow came in from outside the window, kneeling on one knee, "Holy Lord."

My mother has appeared. Please go and find out if the Yao tribe captured her, and be careful of your safety.

"Yes."

The shadow came without a sound and vanished without a trace. Besides the rustling of wind outside the window, it was as if nothing had ever happened at all.

The news that Dugu Cheng stayed at Lu Mansion to recuperate quickly reached the palace. Emperor Yuan Zhao was satisfied, but the Empress Dowager was furious. Although Feng Lingxi was willing to treat Dugu Cheng, she felt that Feng Lingxi wanted to use this opportunity to get back together with Dugu Cheng. She was so angry that she sent someone to Lu Mansion to ask Feng Lingxi to enter the palace, but Lu Nian refused.

Feng Lingxi had someone deliver medicine to Dugu City, while she herself went to the General's Mansion.

"How was yesterday's situation"

Feng Lingxi gave Nian Li a medicinal bath today. The medicine bath is used to force the toxins out of her body while simultaneously destroying them. This process may take several tries to be successful.

" Nianli ate the medicine and had no reaction, her spirit was very good."

Looking at her daughter's tiny body submerged in the medicine, Feng Yu Xi's eyes were filled with worry, afraid that Nian Li would not be able to withstand it.

"Guard her, don't let her get up."

Feng Ling Xi walked to the side and continued to concoct the medicinal water. Feng Yu Xi watched Feng Ling Xi's busy figure, "Why don't you let someone help you, why must you do it yourself"

Two large cauldrons were simmering with medicinal water in her courtyard, and she was personally guarding them. Feng Lingxi was so seriously treating Nian Li that Yu Xi was truly touched. Several times she wanted to tell her about the Yao tribe, but she held back each time.

"As a physician, since I have agreed to treat your daughter, I will do it myself. Moreover, her condition is not an ordinary illness; the timing and the duration of the medicinal soak are crucial. Could you trust someone else with this"

Feng Lingxi clapped her hands, watching Nian Li soaked in the medicine. Her forehead was covered in sweat, her small face as flat as a palm, with no chubby cheeks. Her pair of eyes stared at Feng Lingxi, neither crying nor making a sound.

He’s very obedient.

Such a young child, soaking in the medicine like a well-behaved baby. The water is still slightly warm, but she doesn't cry out. She has to be commended for her composure.

Maybe I beat him up too much.

As the rain and wind parted ways at dusk, I sat beside Nianli, letting out a sigh.

"These two days, I've been asking myself over and over, why did I give birth to her in the first place Was it because I wanted a child, or was it because I wanted to give Luo Li a child" A bitter self-deprecating smile played on Feng Yu Xi's lips as tears welled up in her eyes.

"He doesn't want me to give him a child, and I force him to keep his child. It's ridiculous."

"Did you drug him and imprison him"

Feng Ling Xi suddenly asked, Feng Yu Xi was stunned for a moment, and after half a while, she nodded.

“Yes, I didn't know what I was thinking back then. I did such a stupid thing. He was too confident, thought I wouldn't dare to do anything to him, but I did. And besides, which man can control himself after the effects of the drug kick in As long as it's a woman, he'll want her.”

Feng Yu Xi said, tears falling from her eyes.

“I thought that by having his body and his child, I could stay by his side as his woman. But he wasn't, so I imprisoned him, using every means necessary to make him give me the child. Sometimes men are just so ridiculous. He said with his mouth that he would never touch me, but his body was honestly insatiable.”

"Why bother"

Feng Lingxi didn't know how to tell Feng Yu Xi, "You treat him like this, he'll definitely hate you."

"I don't care, even if he wants to kill me, I don't care. I've been living through wind and rain for so long, I've never lived for myself. The only time I felt happy was during those two weeks with him. Even though he hated me and was driven mad by my torment, it was the happiest time of my life."o touch those around me, if I die, I will definitely drag the Yao clan down with me."Feng Lingxi finished speaking, got up and said to Xiao Li, "Let's go."Luoli watched her leave, her eyes gradually t...
