Feng Ling hurriedly chased to the window, and as she did, the door swung open. Xiao Li entered with her guards, immediately seeing the bloodstain on the back of the princess's robe. She rushed forward in alarm, saying nervously, "Your Highness, you are injured."
"Don't worry, go out and have a look quickly. The assassin climbed out the window."
The candles in the room were already lit, the guards chased after him, the rest stayed outside her door.
Xiao Li helped Feng Ling Xi sit down, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, let the servant help you take a look at your wound."
Feng Lingxi responded, the assassin's strike wasn't very deep, it's just a pity that in the darkness, he escaped.
"Xiaoli, there's a bottle over there with the healing medicine I made. Please apply it to my wound later."
Feng Lingxi urged Xiao Li to clean her wounds, her eyes red with tears.
"Your Highness, it's all the maidservants' fault. If we had been guarding you, perhaps you wouldn't have gotten hurt."
Seeing the wound on the Queen's back, if the King saw this, he wouldn't know how heartbroken he would be.
"It has nothing to do with you. Even if you were here, you couldn't help. You might even lose your life."
Feng Lingxi glanced outside, "Is the King back yet"
"He hasn't returned yet." The princess said to go to sleep first, she would wait outside. She waited until the middle of the night, but the prince did not come back. She didn't expect this to happen and got hurt.
After taking care of her wound, Feng Lingxi stood up. The pain in her back made her frown.
"Why are you back so late today"
If Dugu City didn't return home so late, she was assassinated. Could it be that the other party knew Dugu City wasn't at home, so they came to assassinate her tonight
But who on earth was so bold as to dare infiltrate the Fourth Prince's manor and attempt to assassinate her
"My Lady, I do not know."
The guard who pursued the assassin returned, kneeling on one knee before Feng Lingxi, "Your Highness, forgive me, I failed to catch the assassin, he got away."
"Come on, it's alright if we can't catch him. That assassin is quite skilled and didn't get hurt."
If she doesn't wake up, tonight will be her death.
Feng Lingxi's eyes flashed with a cold light. She dared to assassinate her, she would definitely find that person and absolutely wouldn't allow such a danger to lurk beside her.
"You all stay out there and keep watch."
Xiao Li cautioned, fearing the assassin's return.
"No, the assassin failed to carry out the assassination. They won't be coming today, you go about your business."
Feng Lingxi poured herself a glass of water and instructed Xiaoli, "When the King returns, tell him to come find me."
Xiao Li responded, but she stayed close by, not daring to leave.
Feng Lingxi couldn't sleep, lying on her bed. She thought she would wait for Duguo City to return, but unexpectedly, he didn't come back all night.
At daybreak, Feng Lingxi felt drowsiness creeping in and fell asleep again.
When Dugu City returned home and learned that Feng Lingxi had been attacked by assassins last night, he hurried to her room. Seeing that she was still asleep, he walked up to her, looking at her with her back turned to him. His gaze fell on the blood-stained clothes, dyed red.
"Your Highness..."
Xiaoli saw the King return and hurriedly shouted, Dugucheng hurriedly signaled her to go out first, glanced at Feng Lingxi, and walked out of the room.
"What's going on How could Xi'er be stabbed"
"I'm not too sure, when I heard the noise and came in last night, the princess was already injured. The assassin climbed out the window and escaped."
Xiao Li saw the worry in Dugu Cheng's eyes and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, the princess said that when you return, let you find her. This servant will call the princess right away."
"Dugu Cheng blocked her, "Don't wake her up, let her sleep for a while. I'll go take a bath and change my clothes, and I'll be back later."
Xiao Li only then discovered that the King's clothes were dusted with dirt, as if he had been on a journey far away.
Just as Dugu City left, Feng Lingxi woke up. Xiaoli hurriedly stepped forward, “Your Highness, the King just came to see you. He told me not to wake you up, saying that he would come see you after bathing and changing.”
"Has he just come back"
Upon returning, one should bathe and change clothes. Where did you go all night
Under the strain of Feng Lingxi's activity, the wound on her back stuck together, paining her so much that she frowned.
"Seeing that my lord arrived in such a dust-covered manner, he must have been out attending to business."
Xiao Li hurriedly helped Feng Ling Xi sit down and looked at the blood seeping from her wound, "Your Highness, your wound is bleeding."
"Help me take care of this, maybe he tossed and turned in his sleep and got it messed up."
Xiao Li hurriedly had someone bring water to help Feng Ling Xi treat her wounds. Looking at the flesh and blood on the wound, Xiao Li's eyes warmed up. Suddenly, a hand appeared behind her. Xiao Li turned around, Du Gu Cheng gave her a wink. Xiao Li glanced at the princess, and then retreated.
Du Gu Cheng watched the wound on Feng Ling Xi's back, his handsome brows furrowed. Such a long gash and she didn't even cry out in pain, no wonder Xiao Li would feel heartbroken.
"Clean it well then apply the medicine, watching my wound won't make it heal."
Feng Ling Xi said lightly, Du Gu Cheng's hand stiffened, "How do you know it was this King"
Feng Lingxi didn't look back, her tone cold, "The scent on Xiaoli is different from the king's."
Upon hearing this, Dugu City's lips curled into a slight smile. "I wonder what kind of flavor I am"
"A taste of getting punched."
Feng Lingxi's words fell, and Dugu City's smile widened.
"Xier is truly strong even when she's injured, I wonder if she knows how to be like other women and act cute with her man"
Feng Ling Xi turned around, meeting Du Gu Cheng's helpless gaze in his eyes. She grabbed the medicinal powder and Little Li hurriedly stepped forward to take it.
"To this king."
Dugu Cheng reached out and took the medicine powder. Xiao Li could only step back again and stand aside.
"You may withdraw now. I will call for you if there is anything."
Xiaoli glanced at Feng Lingxi, saw her nod, and then retreated.
"Do you know what the assassin who killed you last night looked like"
Dugu Cheng poured the medicine powder onto her wound, gently applying it and covering it. His eyes were cold and piercing.
"I don't know, his martial arts are pretty good. Maybe he underestimated me because I have some medical skills. If not, he would have won."
Feng Lingxi's words caused Dugu Cheng's eyes to narrow, his gaze fixed on Feng Lingxi's wound, filled with killing intent.
"Last night, this King went out of the city to attend to some business. Unexpectedly, someone had their eyes on you."
Feng Lingxi responded in kind, without asking him what he was doing.
"This time I was lucky to escape, if there's a next time…"
"I will take note of that."
Feng Lingxi interrupted him, "Your Highness, it's more important to take care of your own affairs first."
She wasn't helpless, she just didn't want to show too much.
Although Dugu Cheng said she was good, he couldn't tell her everything.
"This king's matters are not as important as your life, Xi'er. This time, if it wasn't for the other party's carelessness, you wouldn't be able to speak to this king here. Don't you want to know who wanted to assassinate you"
"It must be someone who doesn't want me to live."
Feng Lingxi sneered, “After I recovered from my illness, there should be many people who wanted me to be unwell. Besides those I offended these days, there should be quite a few who want my life. Or perhaps they came for you.”neral Feng and the Young Master are arguing in the front courtyard."A subordinate rushed in, panting. When Feng Lingxi heard that Feng Aotien and Dugu Cheng were arguing, she exchanged a suspicious lo...
