ut just by thinking about them."Du Gucheng's praise didn't bring Feng Lingxi any joy. She didn't want to live this way, but now she had no choice. If she didn't, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to...As soon as the words left his mouth, Ye Xi felt the king's murderous gaze bore down on him. He hurriedly chuckled and said, "Your Highness, where shall we go now"

Dugu Cheng let out a cold snort, "Since you claimed to be able to handle the maidservants around Xi'er, why haven't you managed it"

Ye Xi awkwardly chuckled, "Your Highness, the maidservant of the Princess was personally trained by her. I'm clumsy with words, how could I possibly handle her Perhaps you should send someone else"

He didn't even get to say two sentences to her. He was so aggressive, like he had offended her.

"Since you can't handle Xi'er's maids, do you think Xi'er herself will be easy to control"

Ye Xi glanced at the King, “I wonder who it was back then who said they would take revenge on the Crown Princess with such a fierce air. Now, they aren't even a match for her.”

"What did you say" Dugu Cheng's face darkened. Ye Xi hurriedly said, "My subordinate said, the princess will definitely be obedient to the king."

Dugu Cheng let out a cold snort, "It seems this king has been too courteous to you, making you forget your own identity. You speak without respect, even daring to make fun of this king."

Ye Xi's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly stepped forward to apologize. Dugu City glared at him, "Hurry up and follow."

The moment County Princess Zhaoran stepped out of the bath, she saw Feng Lingxi standing outside the door. Seeing her, for some reason, she suddenly felt a surge of fear.

"Princess Zhaoran, are you returning to Prince Yu's Mansion"

Feng Ling smiled and asked, looking into Zhaoran County Lord's fearful eyes. She walked up to her, "County Lord, do you want to return to the manor"

The esteemed Princess Zhaoran hurriedly stepped back, avoiding Feng Lingxi's gaze, "This princess will return now and not disturb the Fourth Royal Consort."

Seeing her hurriedly want to leave, Feng Lingxi stopped her, "County Princess, there's something I still want to discuss with you. Would you please give me a moment"

"You, you speak."

Seeing her stutter, Feng Lingxi felt a bit like laughing. How had she frightened her so much One wouldn't know she had done anything to Princess Zhaoran.

"The County Princess's visit to the Fourth Prince's Manor today was an honor, but unfortunately she fell into the pond. If this news reached the ears of His Royal Highness, the Prince Regent, he would surely investigate the cause..."

When the princess of Zhaoran heard this, she quickly said, "Don't worry, I definitely won't tell anyone. I came here today just to see Cheng Gege and the fourth princess. I'm very happy."

Feng Lingxi held her hand and said, "Princess Zhaoran, just have fun. Come visit our mansion again next time you have free time."

Princess Zhao's hand drew back in fright, and she hurriedly said, "If there's nothing else, then I shall take my leave."

Feng Lingxi followed up, "I'll see you off."

>

The County Princess knew, "I'm leaving." Zhao Ran County Princess hurriedly ordered her carriage to leave the Fourth Prince's Residence.

"Would the County Princess really keep this to herself If today's events were to get out, the Duchess would surely be in a heap of trouble."

Xiao Li watched anxiously as Zhao Ran Junzhu's carriage drove away. After all, everyone in the mansion knew about today's events.

If she wasn't foolish, she would naturally keep this matter to herself. Think about it, compared to marrying the Fourth Prince, she is merely a concubine. Even if I were willing to give up this position of concubine, my mother wouldn't necessarily agree. Besides, how could the Empress possibly allow Princess Zhaoran to marry the Fourth Prince, giving the prince wings like a tiger

Xiao Li looked at the Princess with admiration, "Your Highness is so intelligent, you can think so clearly about everything. If you were a man, I wonder how many men in the world would be stronger."

Feng Lingxi smiled, "Let's go, we won't worry about this anymore, let them be anxious."

"Them" Xiaoli looked at the Princess in confusion, "Are you talking about the King"

Feng Lingxi smiled but said nothing, walking towards the pharmacy.

In the carriage, Princess Zhaoran remained silent. Her maid spoke up beside her, her voice filled with anger.

"My lady, this fourth princess is too much! She dared to scare you. Knowing that you like the Fourth Prince and has stolen his affections, she even flaunts him right in front of you, behaving so intimately with him. This is outrageous."

"Today's events must not be spoken of, not even to Father. This Feng Lingxi, the way she treated me today, I will make her regret it someday."

Princess Zhao stared with clenched fists, her eyes blazing with suppressed fury. When had she ever been treated this way She would not let this slide.

"Does the county princess have a way to deal with the fourth consort"

Zhao Ran Junzhu's lips curled into a sneer, her beautiful eyes flashing with ruthlessness. "This Junzhu has heard that the Crown Prince likes Feng Lingxi. You say if something happens between Feng Lingxi and the Crown Prince, do you think Cheng Gege would still like her"

"Does the county princess want the prince to take action"

Princess Zhao Ran clenched her fists, thinking about what had happened today, gritted her teeth and said, “This princess has never been humiliated like this before. Even Feng Ling Xi, when favored, would have moments of failure.”

Feng Ling Xi, dare you threaten and humiliate this County Princess like this If this County Princess doesn't make you pay the price, this County Princess swears she won't be human.

Feng Lingxi sneezed, Xiao Li hurriedly took a cloak for her, "Your Highness, it's late, you should go back to sleep early."

Feng Lingxi moved her limbs, "Has the prince returned"

Xiao Li glanced outside, "The slave hasn't seen the Master. The Master is truly unreasonable. The princess has done so much for him, and he hasn't even returned yet. It's really too much."

Feng Lingxi frowned slightly. It's so late and he hasn't returned yet. Wasn't he supposed to be back by now Why hasn't he come back Could something have happened

"Xiao Li, you go and see, if the Young Master returns, tell him to come here to find me, I have something to discuss with him."

Xiao Li hurriedly went to take care of it. Feng Ling Xi looked at the medicinal herbs prepared aside, and checked them again to make sure there was no problem, then put the herbs into the pot for brewing.

The medicine she concocted for the Emperor must be absolutely perfect, not a single mistake. She didn't want to lose her head over it.

Du Gu Cheng came back and heard Xi Er looking for him. He hurried to the pharmacy and saw Xi Er dozing off there. He frowned and walked over, "Xi Er, why are you still here so late"

Feng Ling Xi heard the sound of Dugu City and hurriedly opened her eyes, “You’re back just in time, the medicine brewed for father is almost ready, but the rest needs your help.”

Dugu City looked at the medicine pot in front of her. No wonder she was still guarding it so late, it was for her father's medicine.

"What do you want me to do"

"I'll make this medicine into pills in a while. You take this medicine to the palace and deliver it to the Empress personally."

Feng Lingxi instructed, Dugu Cheng looked at the medicine that hadn't been brewed yet, "You won't plan to stay up all night tonight"

"The medicine I've prepared for Father absolutely can't be rushed. In another two hours, I'll finish making this pill. You give it to Father, so his blood pressure won't rise." She wanted to take a gamble and see if the antidote could be concocted.this."“I just don’t understand, why would Dugu Yan ask Dugu City for help with this He should be the last one involved.” She was afraid that Dugu City would be framed. If that were really the case, Du...
