ajesty knew that you liked him.""Your Majesty, I am not Feng Ling Xi, I am..."Before she could finish her words, Feng Linglong was swept into Du Gu Yan's arms and carried directly towards the inner pa..."He is the Emperor, this prince cannot defy his decree."
Feng Lingxi sneered, "Then since he allowed you to marry a wife, why didn't you"
"Because it wasn't you." Dugu City stared straight at Feng Lingxi, "Xi'er, this king knows you have a lot of opinions about this king, but for this matter, allow me to explain it slowly to you."
“Yes, this needs to be made clear. I think Emperor Yuan Zhao's words were inappropriate. When he asked you if you would marry Huanghpu Qingyun and you refused, he thought of getting you back together with the Prince of Chen. During this time, it definitely wasn't as simple as genuinely wanting you two to reconcile.”
Lu Nian added, giving Dugu City a knowing glance. He'd done all he could; the rest was up to Dugu City himself.
"I'm going out for a drive, you guys talk slowly."
Lu Nian understood the situation and hurriedly went out to avoid being bombarded later.
Inside the carriage, only Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng remained. The two looked at each other, but neither spoke.
After a while, Dugu City spoke up, "From the emperor's words, I deduce that he wants you to cure him. He also praised your medical skills as being even more refined than before."
"I'm not interested in his health, nor have I ever considered treating him."
This person shouldn't be too kind when they are alive, especially those in the royal family. If you save him, he might turn around and kill you.
"I know what's going on, so I'm pretending to be clueless. But he suddenly decreed that I must find a way to reconcile with you, even saying we already have three children. He even said he'd explain things to the Empress Dowager, so she wouldn't stop us from being together."
獨孤城看了風淩兮不出聲，補充道，“太後之前派人刺殺你，根本就沒想要讓你留在本王身邊，這點本王清楚，不過，我答應了元昭帝，這幾天可能會不斷地出現在你身邊，聖旨不可違抗，你就當本王是空氣。”
Feng Lingxi, hearing Dugu Cheng speak in such a humble tone, felt stifled in her heart for a moment.
Could he really say that he truly wanted to stay with her
It's really infuriating just to hear about it.
"Suit yourself, I'm leaving for the capital in a few days. If you want to stay, stay."
獨孤城's expression suddenly tightened, and he coughed violently. After finally catching his breath, he grabbed Feng Lingxi's hand and hurriedly asked, "Can't you stay a few more days"
"Aren't we already staying a few more days"
Feng Ling Xi questioned. Dugu Cheng looked at the anger in her eyes, and suddenly hugged her, lowering his head to forcefully kiss Feng Ling Xi's lips. The sudden domineering act left Feng Ling Xi stunned. She wanted to push him away, but was held tightly by Dugu Cheng, letting him kiss her until she stopped struggling. After a long while, he reluctantly let go of her.
"Please, Your Majesty, stay a few more days"
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng's pleading eyes. She wanted to slap him, but his gaze held her captive. Was this still the Dugu Cheng she knew When did he become so humble and beg her with such eyes
Feng Lingxi averted her gaze, unwilling to meet his eyes. She feared that she would soften her heart.
"I came here to find out who poisoned me all those years ago. Now that the investigation is complete, I have no reason to stay. Wan'er, I can't let her remain by your side."
"Was it the poison of Luoli or the wind and rain of evening"
Dugu Cheng asked, his fists clenched. Xi'er was taking Wan'er away, leaving him alone to face the rest of his life
"Luoli allowed the wind and rain to give you the poison. I thought you would know."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, her tone flat, as if she were talking about someone else.
"If I were to say that I don't know about this, would you believe me"
Dugu Cheng knew that he had no credibility in Xi'er's heart, but he wanted to say that he really didn't know about this.
"Whether you believe it or not doesn't matter anymore, Dugu City, you just need to remember, between us, it's over."
"Xi'er..."
Du Gu Cheng was anxious, ending the conversation with a single word. His heart was pierced like a knife, the words he wanted to say stuck in his throat. He could only nod mutely, "This king understands."
Feng Lingxi took a deep breath, the atmosphere in the carriage grew heavy and silent. No one spoke all the way to Lu Mansion. Feng Lingxi stepped out of the carriage. Dugu Cheng watched her enter, his Adam's apple bobbing, but he remained silent.
"Have you really given up on Xi'er"
Lu Nian crossed her arms and looked at Dugu City. She had heard quite a bit about what just happened in the carriage. He even kissed her, so why wasn't he saying anything now
"Since Xier has said so, how could this King give up She no longer loves me."
"Yeah, Xi'er really doesn't love you. Looking at you like this now, I don't even like looking at you, let alone her. Even Tao Su is stronger than you. If I were her, I would rather marry Tao Su than choose you. You just keep acting like you're going to die, it's bad luck."
Dugu City raised his head, his eyes filled with anger, but it extinguished in an instant.
"You're right, this ghostly appearance of mine is indeed an eyesore."
After finishing, he turned and left dejectedly, leaving Lu Nian confused.
"I... I spoke too loudly"
Lu Nian retracted his gaze and hurriedly chased after her, "Sister, wait for me."
After Wind Ling came back from the palace, she returned to her courtyard and began preparing a remedy for Rain Xi's daughter, Li. She personally made the medicine into pills. Si Qi saw her mother making the pills and kept following Wind Ling around, trying to help.
"Mother, is this pill the one that Grandpa gave us to detoxify ourselves back then"
Feng Siqi's small hand was kneading the pills, curiously asking.
Feng Lingxi patiently explained, "This pill is different from the one you take. Your poison and Siyu's are different types, and hers contains two kinds. The treatment is also different from yours. Mother, first have her take this day's dose of medicine. After she finishes it, I'll assess the situation and make a new batch for her."
Feng Siqi nodded. “Then when she was poisoned, wasn’t the pain twice as bad”
The pain lasted a long time.
Feng Siqi understood, kneaded the pills and handed them to Feng Lingxi, "Mother, can this little sister's body handle this"
"You have to eat it even if you can't stomach it, or she'll die."
Wind Ling Xi put the pills into a box, "Si Qi, my mother is going to deliver medicine to her. Would you like to go with me"
Feng Siqi was just about to agree, but then she changed her mind and shook her head.
"Siqi is not going, she just remembered she promised Siyu to go out and play."
"Don't go too far."
Feng Lingxi instructed them with a reminder and then took the pill out. Feng Siqi hurriedly ran to find Lu Nian, "Uncle, mother went to the General's Mansion. Let's go."
"Are you really sure you want to cure your father's illness"
Lu Nian looked at the two little guys in front of him, "If your mother knew the truth, she wouldn't blame me for all of it!"
"Alright, let's go. We're running late."
Lu Nian was taking them back to the Lu family when they were stopped by guests at the gate. Seeing the handsome man in front of him, the smile on Lu Nian's face disappeared.
