as a military physician. If you trust me, let me treat your wounds."Feng Lingxi finished speaking, and no one came to bandage her wounds. Feng Lingxi swept a cold gaze over the injured soldiers, her...獨孤城 looked at her exhausted face. It was so late, in two hours it would almost be dawn. Was she planning to stay up all night to make these pills

"Your father's illness hasn't been a sudden thing. You haven't slept all night, your body can't take it. Why not continue tomorrow"

"If you don't keep to these two hours, my medicine will be wasted."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and looked at Dugu City, "You go to sleep, I'll call you when it's done."

Dugu Cheng walked over and sat down in front of her, "I'll guard you, you sleep for a while."

"At this heat, it takes about an hour and a half to simmer into a thick consistency. I'm going to sleep for a while, wake me up when it's done."

Duke Gu Cheng was insistent, and she didn't want to refuse him. She was truly tired, and it was after all medicine for his father emperor, Duke Gu Cheng would approve of it.

Seeing her actually fall asleep, Dugu Cheng suddenly felt a bit down. He thought she would continue talking to him, telling him to go to sleep and that she would stay awake, watching over him. He even imagined that if she insisted once more, he would listen to her and go to sleep. Unexpectedly, this ending was different from what he had imagined.

Wind Ling Xi is still Wind Ling Xi, how could she care for him

Feng Lingxi was really tired and fell asleep as soon as she lay down. Dugu Cheng guarded the medicine and, according to Feng Lingxi's instructions, simmered it for an hour and a half. Seeing the medicinal juice become thicker and thicker, he hurriedly woke up Feng Lingxi. When she got up to check, he eagerly asked, "Xier, is it the same as the one we made together"

"The fire's nearly ready, why don't you go get some sleep I'll call you when it's done."

獨孤城 glanced outside, "I'll finish sending the medicine and go to sleep."

"As you wish."

Dugu Cheng looked at her skillful movements and asked, "Xier, did your master teach you how to make medicine"

Feng Ling's movements stiffened in his hand, he raised his head and looked at him. Dugou City explained, "This king is just curious to ask, seeing that your technique is so skilled, you must be used to brewing medicine."

"After you've simmered potions for a few years, your skills will become this proficient too."

Dugu City, hearing her words, immediately leaned forward, "Otherwise, teach this king, and from now on, the wife leads and the husband follows."

Feng Lingxi coldly glanced at him, "Your Highness's body is noble, I can't teach you this kind of thing."

Dugu Cheng raised an eyebrow at her words, "You don't want to"

"Do you still ask Isn't the King adding to his own troubles by doing this Why bother"

Feng Lingxi's words left Dugu Cheng quite downcast. She was truly bold to say such things.

The atmosphere became awkward. Dugu City looked at her without saying a word, and then found another topic.

"Your Majesty, how confident are you in treating the Emperor's illness"

"Detoxification is not difficult, it's just that wanting to detoxify is not easy. I believe the Lord knows this better than I do."

Feng Lingxi finished making the pills, letting them cool before carefully placing each one into a box. By the time she was done, the sky was already bright with dawn.

"This pill, one a day, taken with warm water, but I don't know what kind of consequences it will bring when it enters the palace. Your Highness, you handle it yourself."

Feng Lingxi handed him the pill and said, "I'm going to go take a nap."

As he watched her retreating figure, Duguo City grasped her arm and said in a low voice, "Xier, rest assured, this king will deliver medicine to the emperor every day and ensure your safety."

Feng Lingxi turned her head and glanced at him, saying lightly, “Then I’ll trouble the Prince.”

Feng Lingxi opened her hand from his grip and walked out of the room.

Dugu Cheng looked at the box in his hand. Every pill inside was made by Xi'er after staying up all night. He understood her worries, and since he promised to protect her, he would definitely keep his word.

Ye Xi, enter the palace to meet the holy one.

Feng Ling Xi woke up from a nap and it was already noon. Looking at Xiao Li who was serving her inside the room, Feng Ling Xi glanced outside and asked lightly, "Has His Royal Highness returned"

"Haven't you, Your Highness, still need to go to the General's Mansion today"

Feng Lingxi tidied her clothes, “Of course. Feng Lingyu should also go into the mansion to be a concubine. As her fourth sister, I should prepare a generous gift for her.”

Xiao Li was very unhappy when she heard that she had to prepare a generous gift.

"Your Highness, why do you still send lavish gifts to the second young miss even though she treats you like that She's married to a wealthy merchant in the capital and doesn't lack for food or clothing."

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli's dissatisfied expression and handed her a box, "Take this and give it to your mother."

Xiaoli hurriedly put the box away and, seeing the princess leave, hurried to follow her.

"Your Highness, shall we not wait for the King to return together today"

"Don't worry about it, let's go."

Feng Lingxi returned to the General's Mansion after leaving the house. Unlike before, Feng Aotian wasn't home either. Feng Lingxi went straight to her mother Zhang Shi's courtyard and saw her mother basking in the sun. She walked towards her.

"Mother."

Zhang saw her arrival and hurriedly stood up. Feng Lingxi looked at the deserted courtyard, puzzled and asked, "Mother, where are the maids in the courtyard Why aren't they serving you"

"Your father called them all out, now mother is the only one left here. It's quite peaceful."

When Feng Lingxi heard her mother's words, her face darkened.

"Mother, did Father punish you yesterday"

When Zhang saw her angry, she pulled her hand and motioned for her to sit down, soothingly saying, "Xi'er, don't be angry. In fact, without them here, your mother feels much more relaxed and carefree. At least she doesn't have to worry about what they are feeding her."

“That’s not right either. Mother is the legitimate wife of the General's Residence, how can you favor concubines over wives Is Father out of his mind”

She never expected this. Even though she's the Fourth Princess now, her father still treats her mother with such coldness. It truly opens her eyes to a whole new world.

"Xier, your elder sister will be moving into the East Palace in a few days to be sealed as a concubine of the Crown Prince. The position of Crown Princess is now vacant, so naturally your father will be good to your second aunt."

It seems Father doesn't intend to acknowledge me as his daughter anymore, his eyes are only on the elder sister. Even the princess consort by the prince's side is better treated than I am, this fourth royal wife. Whether she was a legitimate daughter or the official consort, she always loses out to the prince's elder sister's princess consort.

Not only that, your elder sister has canceled Lingyu's marriage and found a new match for her. The arrangements were made yesterday, and in three days, she will marry into the Sixth Prince's household as his official wife.

"Empress"

Feng Lingxi, with a serious expression, hurriedly asked, "Mother, how could the Sixth Prince possibly be interested in Feng Lingyu She is..."

"The Sixth Prince has always been a playboy, and your second sister is also a stunningly beautiful woman. After you two left yesterday, the Sixth Prince came to our mansion and met your second sister. Unexpectedly, the two of them engaged in an illicit affair. This morning, the Sixth Prince told your father that he would marry your second sister into the palace as his official wife in three days."

Zhang finished speaking, holding her hand and looking at her with worry in her eyes.

"Xi'er, now your elder and second sisters are going to become your sisters-in-law. In the future, you must be very careful when getting along with them. Although the Emperor favors the Fourth Prince, he is ultimately powerful. If someone with ill intentions tries to harm you, you must be extremely cautious."

Feng Ling Xi responded, looking at the worry in her mother's eyes. She never expected that overnight, everything would change so drastically. Feng Ling Yu was truly cunning, managing to stage a comeback and become the Sixth Princess Consort.oday.Dugu Cheng knew about this, so he looked at Wan'er. This girl was surprisingly stubborn. It had been over a month since they met, but she refused to call Xi'er "mother" and wouldn't apologize.And...
