Chapter 569: Conspiracy 56
of footsteps came from behind. Dugu City turned to look at him and walked towards the courtyard. Luo Li followed him. The two sat down at a stone table bathed in moonlight and poured themselves a cup...Feng Lingxi put down her bowl, meeting Dugu City's helpless gaze. She took his hand, her eyes full of coaxing, "You finished the medicine, now go busy with your work."
Du Gucheng sighed helplessly, "There's truly nothing I can do about you. I've never met a woman like you before, someone who would drink such bitter medicine without hesitation."
Feng Lingxi's face was full of smiles as she looked at Dugu Cheng, her eyes darting around him. "What You don't like this, do you prefer the kind who just drinks a potion and screams at the sky"
Dugu Cheng looked at her playful smile, reached out and gently tapped her nose, smiling indulgently, "This king just feels that in front of you, he can't find any feeling of being a husband at all."
"Well..." Feng Lingxi thought for a moment, taking his hand and acting coquettishly, "Or should I learn from those women and be a little more demanding"
"Mischievous."
Listening to her coquettish tone, it's really a bit unaccustomed.
Be yourself, don't imitate those women. If you were like them, you wouldn't be my Xi'er.
"Then you said, go busy yourself."
Feng Lingxi urged, "Keep me company tonight."
獨孤城 stood up, “This king is leaving, I’ll be back later.”
Feng Lingxi watched as he was about to leave and reminded him, "Be careful on the road."
獨孤城 nodded at her with a smile and left the room. Feng Lingxi saw him walk away, and the whole person lay on the bed, letting out a breath of relief.
"This man is so difficult to deal with, isn't he"
"Your Highness, the Prince is concerned about you."
Xiaoli smiled, looking at the way the princess seemed to have let out a breath of relief after dealing with it. If the king saw this, he would be so upset.
Feng Lingxi rolled over and sat up, then quickly stood up and said to Xiaoli, "Bring all the medicinal herbs I dug back yesterday into my room. I need to process them; they are all precious."
Xiao Li smiled knowingly, "The servant had already prepared it, knowing what the princess would want."
Xiao Li went out and soon came back carrying a basket. Feng Lingxi excitedly stepped forward, sorted the medicinal herbs, and then began to divide and prepare the medicine. Xiao Li helped her, and the two worked diligently. Soon, a strong aroma of medicine filled the room and spread throughout the courtyard.
Huangfu Qingyun arrived at Feng Lingxi's door and smelled the scent of medicine coming from inside. His brows furrowed slightly. He knew Xi'er liked to refine medicine, but wasn't Xi'er poisoned Could she be secretly refining an antidote behind Dugucheng's back
Knocking on the door, Huangfu Qingyun spoke, "Xi'er, it's me."
Upon hearing Huangfu Qingyun's voice, Feng Lingxi hurriedly got up, walked over and opened the door, looking at Huangfu Qingyun standing at her door, she hurriedly asked, "How did you come here"
"Is it convenient"
Feng Ling Xi let him into the room, looking at Huangfu Qingyun's slightly pale handsome face, "Your injuries haven't healed yet, you shouldn't be moving around like this. You have something to tell me, just call me over, there's no need to come in person."
Huangfu Qingyun sat down and, looking at Feng Lingxi's worried eyes, showed a smile. "My injury is almost healed, it doesn't matter. I just came to see you. Being cooped up in the room is stifling, with no one to talk to."
"Where is Ye Xi"
He has something to do with Dugu City and went away.
Seeing the faint sadness in Huangfu Qingyun's eyes, Feng Lingxi poured him a cup of tea, "It's all my fault. I didn't expect that you would be bored staying alone. Why don't you go back to Sifang Wangfu with us in a few days That way, you'll have some company."
"It's alright, I'll go to the inn in a few days. Father and Mother already know about the assassination attempt and have arranged for others to protect me. Xi'er, don't worry."
Mentioning this, Huangfu Qingyun's eyes dimmed. Feng Lingxi knew that even if she arranged for him to be with someone he trusted, it probably wouldn't erase the pain of betrayal he felt.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Remember what it was like back when we were in Aohua during the summer Thinking about it now, things were so carefree back then. We could go out every day without worrying about anyone harming us."
"Things change constantly, people always change."
Huangfu Qingyun looked at Feng Lingxi, “Just like you and me.” Her fiancee became the imperial sister, the most trusted guard by her side betrayed her, wounded her and then disappeared without a trace, not even knowing the reason. Huangfu Qingyun sighed softly, the sorrow in his eyes, increasingly heartbreaking to look at.
Feng Lingxi suddenly didn't know what to say when she heard his words.
Their relationship, she owed him so much.
She treated him as her brother, but could Huangfu Qingyun truly treat her as his sister wholeheartedly at this point After all, he had initially thought she would marry him and become his Crown Princess. He had patiently waited for so many years with such devotion. It was impossible to simply change these feelings on a whim.
"You can also treat me as Yao Hua."
Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, and Huangfu Qingyun's body trembled. Looking at the sincerity in Feng Lingxi's eyes, he suddenly smiled.
"Yao Hua is just a title you were given, I still prefer calling you Xi Er. It feels more like how siblings would address each other."
Huangpu Qingyun's words were heartbreaking to hear. To say those words, "like siblings," from his mouth, was incredibly difficult. Even so, Huangpu Qingyun, for Xi'er's sake, he was willing to say it, and willing to transform this feeling into sibling affection. For him, as long as Xi'er was happy, he would be content.
It was precisely because of this kind of emotion that Feng Lingxi would always feel guilty when facing Huangfu Qingyun.
The debt of life is hard to repay, let alone with such emotions mixed in.
"Let me take a look at your wound. I don't want it to get infected. With the weather like this, it'll take even longer to heal."
Feng Lingxi changed the subject, unwilling to continue this topic to avoid embarrassment for both of them.
"Xiao Li, please bring me the medicine."
Huangfu Qingyun untied his clothes, Feng Lingxi looked at the healing condition of his wound. The wound was a little red and swollen, but it was recovering very well. After treating the wound, Feng Lingxi applied ointment to it, and then put his clothes back on him.
"At this rate, it will be healed in ten days or half a month."
Feng Lingxi handed him the ointment that she hadn't finished wiping. "This is the ointment I made. It works very well for healing wounds. Apply it to your wound every day."
Huangfu Qingyun said thank you and took it, putting it away carefully.
"I heard that Dugu Yu came to find you. Was he here to cause trouble"
Huangpu Qingyun asked, tidying up his clothes, his handsome face recovered as before.
When it came to Dugu Yu, Feng Ling Xi's lips curled into a smile. "Indeed he came to cause me trouble, but I managed to handle him."
"Oh, Xi'er still has such abilities, tell me about it."
Huangpu Qingyun's gaze softened as he looked at Feng Lingxi, that tenderness made Feng Lingxi stare in surprise. She recounted the whole story to Huangpu Qingyun. After listening, Huangpu Qingyun's handsome eyebrows twitched slightly, worry clouding his eyes.
"Xier, is Dugu Yu truly as cunning and dangerous as they say"
Feng Lingxi nodded, knowing what he was worried about.
"I wouldn't lie about this, he's really poisoned. I noticed it early on."
