family’s rules, this is the seat for the eldest daughter. Sister, your place is over there.”----------------------------------------------------Feng Linglong's face flushed alternately red and white...."Insulting the princess, that's a serious crime, Master Gao. Haven't you heard the saying '禍從口出' Trouble comes from what you say."

Feng Aotiān's words made Gao Yì instantly cover her mouth, sobering up a lot.

Gao Yi went to distribute grain with Feng Aotiān and Elder Liu, looking dejected. He only had this one son, and this time again he was forced into giving out grain. His resentment could only be swallowed down.

Feng Lingxi saw Gao Yi leave and let out a light sigh.

"This Gao Yi really opened my eyes to what it means to be stingy."

"No way, he wouldn't even save his own son! Has he changed his mind now I seriously doubt this son is even his."

Lu Nian wore a look of disdain. He had seen stingy people before, but never one this stingy.

"Indeed, I thought this matter wouldn't be so difficult. Unexpectedly, it took us so long to resolve it, refreshing my understanding." Feng Lingxi stretched her bones and looked at Lu Nian, "Extend your hand, let me take your pulse."

"Here we go again."

Although Lu Nian complained with his mouth, he hurried forward to let Feng Lingxi take his pulse. Seeing her concern for him, his heart was indescribably happy.

"You came into contact with that deceased patient. I'm afraid you might be infected."

"Bah, I wouldn't be so unlucky. Besides, it's so far away, how could it possibly spread that easily."

It's always good to keep an eye out.

Feng Lingxi urged, "Don't take it lightly, tell me if you feel unwell at any time."

"Does that mean I feel uncomfortable"

Li Nian looked at Feng Lingxi, "Seeing you so hard-working, I feel sorry for you."

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm not messing around with you."

"Alright, alright, I won't joke around." Lu Nian knew this plague was terrifying and didn't dare make light of it. If she actually caught the plague, life would be miserable, she might even lose her life.

"May this noble place be spared from further trouble."

Feng Lingxi's eyes were full of worry, she didn't know if Feng Aotien could successfully get the food. The number of patients over the past two days had increased, and their condition hadn't shown any significant improvement.

"Your Highness, there is someone outside the city who claims to be your sister and wants to see you."

"Sister"

Lu Nian looked at Feng Lingxi, her eyes full of confusion, and hurriedly asked, "Xier, when did you have a younger sister"

Feng Lingxi was also at a loss. Where did she get a sister This elder sister made more sense.

"What was her name"

The newcomer shook his head and asked, "Your Highness, do you wish to see him or not"

"You brought her in."

Lu Nian saw Feng Ling and wanted to meet the person she was talking about, so he hurriedly asked, "Sister, do you really have a younger sister"

"No."

Feng Ling Xi's words caused Lu Nian to furrow her brows, "Then why do you still want to meet her Don't you know her background"

"That's why I want to see her. I just don't know."

It seems to make sense. Lu Nian looked at Feng Lingxi's puzzled eyes and thought that she would see it soon, so she didn't ask any further.

Feng Lingxi couldn't help but laugh and cry when she saw Gu Li standing before her.

"Guli, how are you here"

"Your Highness, I'm afraid they wouldn't let me see you if I didn't say that. Please don't be angry." Gu Li stood before Feng Ling Xi like a child who had done something wrong. They had only been apart for a short time, but she had lost a lot of weight.

"Guli, you've lost weight."

Feng Lingxi pulled her down to sit, seeing the worry between her brows, she softly asked, "What happened Why did you come here"

“I heard that the princess is here, so I came to find you. I really don't know where else to go, and I don't want to go back to find Yumo, so I can only come here to see if I can follow the princess and help.”

Gu Li's voice was laced with a hint of melancholy. She had been gone for a long time, but she still couldn't return to the carefree days of the past. Her mind was filled with Feng Yu Mo's figure; she couldn't let go. She wanted to find him, but she was afraid he would despise her. She went back and forth until she heard that Feng Ling Xi had come here, so she decided to come here to find her.

Then stay and help me, I need hands here, but Yu Mo didn't come with me this time.

Feng Lingxi looked at the girl's dejected eyes and didn't know how to comfort her. She thought Gu Li would be able to let go of her feelings for Yumo, but it seemed she was too deeply in love.

"I know, I came here looking for the Princess, a place to stay. I just don't want to be alone. Isn't there an epidemic here I have a little knowledge of medicine, so I should be able to help."

Wind Ling nodded, "Then stay and help me, I'm short-handed right now. When things get busy, time flies by."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian beside her, “Let me introduce you, this is Gu Li. Her father saved my life back then, he’s the one who saved me. You mustn’t bully her.”

The smile on Lu Nian's face gradually disappeared. He loved to hear the first part of the speech, but he didn't like the second part at all. "Little sister, when would I ever dare to bully a young lady Let alone the daughter of my savior."

Lu Nian looked at Gu Li, keeping a distance as she greeted her, "You can just call me Lu Nian, I'm her older brother."

"Hello, Lu Ge."

Gu Li shouted, and Lu Nian felt uncomfortable all over. He chuckled dryly and instinctively kept his distance. Although Gu Li found Lu Nian quite handsome, his reaction seemed to be unpleasant.

"Don't misunderstand that, there's a rule in my family, I'm not allowed to get close to women, except for my sister."

Lu Nian explained, fearing that people would misunderstand and say he was bullying her later.

"Big Brother Lu, Gu Li remembers."

"Guli, why don't you rest for a while first Come back to help tomorrow. I see your face isn't looking too good, so you probably haven't been getting much rest lately."

"Your Highness, I'm fine. I'll go with you. If you need anything, just ask. Who knows, maybe I can be of help." She didn't want to stay alone; it was easy to overthink things. It would be better to follow Feng Lingxi and keep busy so she wouldn't have time to dwell on everything.

"Take her with you, she seems pretty bored."

Lu Nian spoke up, he had heard it, this young girl was interested in his sister's brother. No wonder she called his sister "older sister," she was quite smart. If this girl and that brother ended up together, his sister would be all his own.

"Let's go."

The arrival of Guli actually gave Feng Lingxi an extra helper. She understood medicine, and was also diligent. Working with Xiaoli, she could also provide some care, which greatly relieved Feng Lingxi's worries.

But this plague was far more difficult than Feng Lingxi had imagined. Those who had contracted the plague before she arrived, despite taking medicine, did not improve. Some even worsened, and there were still deaths. In just a few days, two more bodies had been added. The already terrified patients, seeing this, became even more restless and unable to be treated calmly.

Gao Yi's rations were delivered, but three days later, the young master Gao suddenly coughed up blood, felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, and died just like that. Gao Yi cried and made a fuss, demanding the return of the rations and blaming all the misfortunes on Feng Ling Xi.l his injuries improve before we talk."Feng Lingxi looked at Huangfu Qingyun, wanting to speak but holding back."Don't forget, you're still sick."Dugu Cheng grabbed Feng Lingxi's wrist, looked into he...
