e blade was sharp, a good dagger, but with a surgical knife in her possession, this dagger was of little use to her."Thank you, Lord."Feng Lingxi put away her dagger. Dugu Cheng saw her but didn't see...Li Wuyan looked at Feng Lingxi's gaze fixed on him, slowly poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and raised an eyebrow, "What do you think"

How do I know

"Indeed, you have become much dumber. However, you have done me a favor, and I won't harm you."

Li Wuyan looked at Feng Lingxi in disbelief and said, "Even if you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. I've said what I had to say. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."

"I took care of your mother when she was sick, and you helped me then. I've already repaid the favor."

"This favor is indeed repaid, but you currently have nothing for me to scheme over." Li Wuyan looked at Feng Lingxi, "Look at your state now, what could I possibly scheme from you"

Feng Lingxi was angered by his words, but she quickly calmed herself down.

"I know I don't have anything you could possibly want, but you don't have to treat me this way."

She's now quite embarrassed, having been spoken to like that. She doesn't have much of a retort either.

"Give me your hand, let me see how your body has recovered now."

Feng Lingxi extended her hand, but Li Wuyan only felt her pulse for a moment before withdrawing his hand. "Take good care of your body. Otherwise, you'll lose before you even begin."

"Li Wuyan, what do you mean by that What do you mean I've already lost before I've even started Are you trying to pick a fight with me"

Li Wuyan stood up, his hands behind his back. “Feng Lingxi, you will soon understand what I mean. This time, I mainly came to make sure you are safe, after all, apart from you, there hasn't been anyone else who could amaze me with their medical skills. From now on, focus your mind on medicine. As for the struggle for imperial power, it has nothing to do with you.”

"What's this about power struggles When did I start one They always come to me! Besides, it was Luo Li who kidnapped Wan'er first. I saved my daughter, that's not a power struggle."

"You don't, but Dugu City does."

Li Wuyan looked at Feng Lingxi, "You probably never really understood your man, did you What he did behind your back, do you truly know"

Feng Lingxi's eyes were filled with confusion as she stared at Li Wuyan's enigmatic smile. She pressed further, "What did Duguo City do"

“I don't want to interfere too much with your marital affairs. This time, he owes me a favor, and I will ask him for it later. You'll know then. Feng Lingxi, for the rest of your days, I will treat your body as carefully as promised between me and Dugu City. They want your life, but it won't be that easy.”

Li Wuyan finished speaking and turned to leave.

Li Wuyan, you make yourself clear...

Feng Lingxi shouted, but Li Wuyan had already walked far away.

Feng Lingxi got up, put on her coat and was about to go out when she saw Ye Xi walking in from outside. Seeing Feng Lingxi come out, Ye Xi hurried forward to stop her, "Your Highness, where are you going"

"Where is Dugu City"

Seeing her panicked expression, Ye Xi hurriedly said, "Your Highness went to the camp to rescue Miss Wan'er personally. He asked us to stay and protect Her Royal Highness together with Xiao Li."

"He went to find Wan'er"

Ye Xi nodded, looking at the loss in the queen's eyes, thinking about what the queen had said to the king today, her voice carrying a hint of pleading.

"Your Highness, actually the Prince is afraid something might happen to you, so he endures not going to find Miss Wan'er. You don't know, for your sake, the Prince hasn't closed his eyes in days."

Seeing the way the princess treated her husband, Ye Xi's heart truly ached for him.

But the prince had said, one mustn't make the princess angry. He didn't dare speak too plainly for fear of angering her.

Feng Lingxi let out a long sigh, returning to her couch and lying down. Ye Xi stepped forward to attend to her, watching the princess remain silent. She whispered softly, "I know you blame your husband for not being there to save Mistress Wan'er when she was in trouble. But you don't know, at that time, after you miscarried and fell unconscious, how terrified your husband was. He sent Yu Mo and Tian Xiang Lou to find Mistress Wan'er. And you...you only had him."

Seeing that the Princess still remained silent, Ye Xi added, “Your Highness, please don’t blame me for speaking out of turn. That day when I accompanied the King, we were actually looking for Xinshui. In fact, that Ye Mei who came to your manor that day was a fake, her master was Xinshui. My Lord and I went to investigate the bad things Xinshui had done, and incidentally to check if she had stolen Huangfu Qingyun’s bride. Unexpectedly, something happened to you that very day.”

"Was that night demon fake"

When Ye Xi nodded, Feng Lingxi recalled the words that night demon had said to her that day. Could they all be lies

At that time, Dugu City didn't say she was fake. He didn't expose her, and he even let her stay alone with him for so long.

Ye Mei is the deputy mistress of Tianxiang Building. She cannot find the prince without his summons. We know she's a fake, but since the prince wants to know this person's purpose, we'll wait for her to leave and track down her whereabouts.

"It's all because of this infatuation again."

Feng Ling Xi clenched her fists, "What does she want to do"

She suspected that your relationship with Luo Li was ambiguous, misunderstanding your relationship with her and thinking that Wan’er was Luo Li's illegitimate daughter. She wanted to see if the Queen's feelings for the King were true. What's more, there were thirty women arranged by Shu Taifei back then, all arranged by her.

Ye Xi couldn't care about that much, he was afraid that if he didn't explain clearly, the princess's resentment towards the prince would deepen.

Even if the prince punished him, he had to make it clear.

"What's more, the King asked Huangfu Qingyun if his bride was abducted by her. Xinshui said she wasn't responsible, but there's some news that the Princess should be interested in: it concerns the relationship between Xinshui and Qiuer."

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi, seeing his mysterious appearance, stared at him.

This Autumn Child is also Great Elder's granddaughter, and Heartwater is her sister. The Princess Consort didn't expect this, did she

Wind Lingxi was indeed shocked, but how did this Dugu City know so much

How did Dugu City do it

Yexi recalled the events of that day, raising her eyes to meet the questioning gaze of the princess. She swallowed nervously.

"Your Highness, you don't need to know about this. Anyway, the Master has accomplished it."

He really didn't want the princess to know the cruel side of the lord, afraid that it would ruin the lord's image in the princess's heart.

"He's so capable, then who did he find out stole Huangpu Qingyun's bride"

"The investigation is still ongoing, but it seems the Princess has been involved in something. This matter is likely more complicated than we initially thought."

Night Xi looked at the Queen's dimmed eyes and comforted, "But Your Highness, rest assured, the King will definitely find the murderer and return your innocence."

"I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about Wan'er."

Huangpu Qingyun snatched away Wan'er and Xiao Mi, he must be truly angry, otherwise, he wouldn't have taken them. If something happened to Xiao Mi, how could she explain it to Yi Xuan

"Wan'er will be fine, and Madam Feng will be fine too. Your Highness, please rest assured and take good care of your health. As long as you recover, everyone will be fine."

Before leaving, the King specially instructed that no matter what, he must comfort the Queen and make her happy. Don't worry her, everything should wait until he returns to talk about it.very afraid of you""Guilty conscience fears nothing, doesn't it"Yao Wanying withdrew her gaze, "Let's not worry about her for now. Focus on taking care of your own business first."Feng Ling Xi respond...
