t him out of the way. He was happy to leave, and he could still talk to Xiao Li. After all, Xiao Li was also a girl he admired."Your Highness, it seems like you wish to be alone with the King. Please..."That's why you saved her"

The Emperor looked at his son, seeing the slight movement in his expression, the tenderness hidden between his brows made him frown. “Yun’er, you wouldn't fancy that young lady, would you You've only just met her.”

Huangfu Qingyun knelt down, "Father Emperor, Mother Empress, I beg of you to save her. Firstly, she and I have a connection, and secondly, it's because of this necklace. I want to find out the origin of this necklace."

The Empress hurriedly stepped forward to help her son up and softly said, "Since fate brought us together, we should save her. If Yun'er feels fated to meet this young lady, she must be an extraordinary woman. When she wakes up, please inform me so I can go see her."

Huangfu Qingyun nodded, his expression didn't show too much excitement, it was hard to tell if he was truly moved or just because fate had led him to save the girl.

"You go busy yourself first. If you need anything, just speak to your father."

"Thank you, Father."

After thanking Huangfu Qingyun, she returned to the Prince's Mansion.

"Your Majesty, don't you also think it's that child"

The Emperor asked in a low voice. The Empress helped him sit down and softly said, "Your Majesty, no matter who this girl is, Yun'er is twenty-five years old and has yet to marry, not even a maidservant. This child is determined, devoted, just like you. Your Majesty, I think this girl might be able to open his heart."

"But this mysterious girl, who knows what kind of trouble she might bring. I've heard that she was found at the bottom of a cliff, judging by her injuries, she must have rolled down from there, Empress. You must be more careful, Your Majesty. I'm afraid that this girl with an unknown background might endanger Yun'er."

“I understand Your Majesty’s intentions. Yun'er has always been a sensible child since she was young, and I believe she can also understand Your Majesty’s painstaking efforts.”

"It's all my fault."

The Emperor chided himself, "I shouldn't have told him about this in the first place. Perhaps he would have already gotten married."

"Your Majesty, did you forget that Yun'er once asked you why there were no concubines in the harem How did you answer her"

The Empress smiled serenely, looking at the Emperor's helpless gaze, and comforted him, "Alright, let things take their natural course. Yun'er has been intelligent since childhood, she will surely handle it properly."

The emperor sighed, “If she were really my daughter, I would have gone with her. It’s just that I'm afraid she isn't.”

For how many years has it been The past is unbearable to look back on. He'd even thought about whether this marriage was simply void. Unexpectedly, here it was, the Purple Star now in this girl's hands. Could that also mean she's returned

Prince's Mansion

Huangfu Qingyun returned to the estate and went straight to Feng Lingxi's bedroom. Looking at Feng Lingxi who was still unconscious, he asked, "Has your fever broken"

"Your Highness, the young lady's fever has not yet subsided."

"You all withdraw."

Huangfu Qingyun spoke, and the maidservants waiting on her withdrew. Huangfu Qingyun took a wrung towel and applied it to Feng Lingxi's face, looking at the bloodstains on her face and gently wiping them away.

"Don't, don't leave me."

Feng Ling Xi suddenly shouted, Huang Pu Qing Yun happily grabbed her hand, "You're awake"

"Don't leave me."

Feng Lingxi, clutching onto Huangpu Qingyun's hand like a lifeline, showed no signs of waking up. Beads of sweat trickled down her forehead. Huangpu Qingyun, seeing the sweat on her brow, immediately shouted, "Quickly send for the imperial physician!"

Perspiration means she's coming down with a fever and will wake up.

The imperial physician arrived and after examining Feng Ling Xi, looked at her in astonishment. Huang Fu Qing Yun hurriedly asked, “Imperial Physician Zhang, what is her condition”

"Reporting back to the Crown Prince, this young lady is recovering from her fever and will be awake soon."

"Then hurry and prepare some healing medicine for her. She needs to have all her wounds healed."

Dr. Zhang glanced at the prince holding onto the young lady's hand and hurriedly bowed before retreating.

"Miss, wake up."

Huangfu Qingyun shouted, looking at her holding his hand tightly, a strange feeling flashed in his heart, and a rare smile appeared on his handsome face.

Linxi County

"Xier!"

After days of high fever, Dugu City finally woke up. He jumped out of bed and shouted Feng Lingxi's name. Looking at the maid guarding the room, he hurriedly asked, "Where is the princess"

"Reporting to the Lord, the night guard and Miss Xiaoli are still searching."

Dugu Cheng's head ached violently, he pounded it with his hand and asked, "How long have I been asleep"

"It's been three days and three nights."

Du Gucheng's movements froze, he hurriedly got up, but because his body was too weak, he fell to the ground. The maidservant hurried to help him up, "Your Highness, go back and lie down first, I'll call someone right away."

"This king is going to go out and look for Xi'er."

Dugu Cheng shook off her hand, struggling to stand up. His body swayed and he fell to the ground.

"Come here, quickly call the doctor, the prince has fainted again."

Inside the military camp, chaos erupted once again. The doctor rushed to treat Dugu Cheng, while at the bottom of the cliff, Ye Xi and Xiao Li had been searching with their troops for two days and two nights, but they still couldn't find anything, leaving them both panicked.

"Ye Xi, what if the princess is stuck in the middle of the cliff and didn't fall down"

These days, she's been searching for the princess relentlessly, losing weight and becoming haggard. She's climbed cliffs and crossed mountains, doing anything and everything, but still, there's no trace of the princess.

Ye Xi saw it with her own eyes, but she didn't know how to comfort her.

If the lord knew the current situation, he would probably be worried to death.

“The absence of the princess’s presence is good news. Do you want to find her corpse here”

Ye Xi calmly thought, "Perhaps the Princess is blessed with good fortune and was saved."

Xiaoli hurriedly agreed, “Yes, yes, she must have been rescued. Let’s look around here to see if there are any houses nearby. We can go ask them, we’ll definitely find the princess.”

Ye Xi nodded, looking around. "The cliff is only this big. You bring people to search nearby. Be careful and don't miss any position. Xiaoli, I'll go with you over there and see if there are any villages or hunters nearby."

Xiao Li nodded and quickly followed Ye Xi to continue searching.

Dugu Xiu's large camp

Dugu Xiu was stabbed and nearly died. After a rescue, he survived. Learning that Dugu Cheng had a high fever, Ye Xi searched for Feng Lingxi's whereabouts under the cliff and ordered his subordinates, "You go to watch her. This king wants to know if Feng Lingxi is dead or alive."

What else do you want

Suddenly, a sword appeared at Dugu Xiu's neck, held there menacingly. People in the military camp immediately drew their swords and pointed them at the woman beside Dugu Xiu.

"It's you again, monster!" Dugu Xiu glanced at her, a wicked smile playing on his lips. Looking at her unfamiliar face, he showed no fear.

The sword in Bi Shuang's hand tightened, a bloody thread oozing from Dugu Xiu's neck. A smile spread across Dugu Xiu's lips, "Go ahead."

"Aren't you afraid of death"

Arsenic looked at the smile on his lips and tightened her grip on the sword, asking, "What are you laughing at"

"Laugh, if you dare to kill me."

"Nonsense, why would I not dare to kill you, I..."

"If you truly wished to kill this king, you would have acted long ago. Why wait until now"g to help save people, I can accept any request."Dugu Cheng looked at Nanguang Huayun's attitude and was a little curious about who he was treating, that could make Nanguang Huayun so nervous."Ye Xi,...
