Chapter 1356: War Drums Beat 177

't figure out what the illness is. If this continues, Tu Mu Town will be lost, and the Dongtai army will occupy the city."You mean to say that your attack on the Eastern Kingdom failed, and you were..."Goodness gracious, what a sight to behold."

A voice of sympathy came, and Ye Xi grabbed the other person's arm, leaning her whole body on him. She weakly said, "Master Lu, please ask the Princess for some medicine for me. I really can't go on, hmm…"

Here it is again!

This damn medicine, this isn't soup, it's a laxative.

Looking at Ye Xi head into the outhouse, Lu Nian couldn't help but shiver. She took out the medicine she had prepared long ago and placed it aside. "Here's the medicine for you, eat it when you come out later. This time, thank you."

Lu Nian waved his hand, this time it wasn't him drinking soup. Otherwise, he'd be the one squatting in the bathroom here.

Gu Li placed her hands on her cheeks, gazing intently at the bowl of soup on the table.

Feng Lingxi came out and saw Gu Li sitting there. She walked over curiously, "What's wrong with you"

When Gu Li heard Feng Ling Xi's voice, she quickly got up. Her hands were clasped behind her back and she looked restrained. Her voice was soft, like a child who had done something wrong, "Your Highness."

Feng Lingxi glanced at the bowl of soup on the table, thinking about Lu Nian who had come to find her for diarrhea medicine before. She looked at Gulì.

"You haven't given up yet"

Guly stared at Feng Lingxi, her eyes conflicted.

"Your Highness, you said I used to be able to do this. Why can't I here"

Feng Lingxi took the bowl and sniffed it at her nose. The smell made her wrinkle her brow, and she couldn't help but sympathize with Lu Nian and Ye Xi who had already drunk several bowls of soup.

Yu Mo doesn't like to drink soup.

Gu Li's eyes lit up, and she eagerly asked, "What does he like I want to make something delicious for him. Maybe…"

"Gu Li, girls don't need to change themselves for anyone. Changing for someone else means losing your original self. Think about it, does he like the old you or the new you that you changed for him"

Guli looked at Feng Lingxi, her eyes lost.

“Do you still remember when I was brought to your home for treatment How did you get along with Yumo back then, what was he like to you Now look at you, Yumo said he treats you as a sister. Why don't you try it Just interact with him the way you used to. Love can't be forced, and you don't have to change yourself for anyone, or become someone you're not.”

Feng Lingxi's words were spoken to Gu Li, but also to herself.

Actually, during this period of time, she also discovered that she was slowly living the life of someone else. She almost forgot what she used to be like. However, as long as people are alive, they are growing. Otherwise, how could there be the saying "live a long life and learn a lot"

Gulisa's heart ached, she knew Feng Yumo didn't like her, but she desperately wanted to step out of the shadows. She truly loved Feng Yumo.

"Your Highness, I truly love Yu Mo. Being with him makes me truly happy..."

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, Gu Li's voice choked with emotion. The overwhelming feeling made Feng Lingxi feel heartache, so she stepped forward and hugged her, softly comforting her, "I know, but even if you like him, don't demean yourself."

"My Queen..."

Guli's tears flowed freely, she sobbed, holding onto Feng Lingxi. Feng Lingxi comforted her silently. Those watching the scene were surprised, but continued with their tasks.

The plague in Tumo Town had been brought under control. Feng Lingxi played a crucial role this time, but she didn't intend to take credit for it. She and Feng Aotian chatted privately for a long time, even Dugu Cheng didn't know what they talked about. He only knew that when Feng Lingxi returned, she smiled at Feng Aotian, a smile of relief.

I spent over a month in Tumo Town, and I've grown attached to it here. Especially this Willow Lord has gotten used to our presence. Seeing us leave, he was full of reluctance.

"Your Highness, thank you for your care these past few days. I would like to stay here until the plague is completely over before leaving."

Li Su requested to stay, feeling that he was a valuable asset here. He could learn more; although many of the doctors were elderly, their understanding of medicine fueled his thirst for knowledge. He wanted to remain and continue learning from them.

"Rest assured, Your Highness, I will continue to pay Dr. Li his due salary and will not mistreat him."

"Mr. Liu, Li Su is my man. If he wants to stay here, let him stay. I'll give him his wages. After this, please take good care of Li Su, Mr. Liu. He's a good doctor."

"My lord, I shall obey."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your grace."

Dugu Cheng looked at the reluctance in the people's eyes as they looked at Feng Lingxi, and lowered his voice to ask her, "Lingxi, shouldn't you also say goodbye to them"

Feng Lingxi looked at these commoners, thinking about what had happened recently. She bowed to them, and the commoners hurriedly followed suit.

"Thank you all for believing in me during this time."

"The lower official and the people of Tumuwzhen express their gratitude to His Royal Highness Prince Chen and his Consort, as well as General Zhen Guo."

Lord Liu bowed to them, and the common people followed suit, kneeling down. This scene surprised Feng Lingxi, who hurried forward but was stopped by Dugu City.

"Rise now, this is all the Imperial Court's doing. The prince and princess merely came at their behest. You should thank the Imperial Court, for it is the Emperor’s grace that allows us to weather this storm."

Dugu Cheng's words led Liu to take the lead and hurriedly shout: "Long live the Emperor, long live, long live!"

"Xier, let's go."

Feng Ling Xi responded and got into the carriage. Looking at the onlookers, they knelt not for her, but for Emperor Yuan Zhao, the current emperor of the dynasty.

"Having stayed in Tulou Town for so long, it's really hard to leave."

Feng Lingxi looked at the common people kneeling outside the carriage. Seeing that they were all well, she was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

The greatest wish of a doctor is to see this very scene: They are well, and she is well.

"Your Highness, we've certainly done our part this time. Do you think the court will bestow a reward upon you"

Little Li smiled mischievously, her eyes shining with the shyness of a young girl as she watched Ye Xi, who was riding proudly on horseback outside the carriage.

Feng Lingxi saw this scene with her own eyes, and the smile on her lips widened.

"Xiaoli, you and Ye Xi have been together for a few years now, haven't you Has he asked you when you're going to marry him"

Xiao Li's face flushed red, she glared at Feng Ling Xi with a touch of coquettishness, "Your Highness, what are you saying This servant wouldn't marry him."

"Well then, forget it. I was going to have you two get married sooner, but it seems unnecessary now."

"Your Highness…"

Xiao Li's face was grim, biting her lip and looking at Feng Ling Xi's smile, she lowered her head, "Don't joke around with me like this."

"Okay."

Xiaoli has been with her for so many years, and now that she's finally found someone she likes, it's time to get her married. After all, at her age, she's already been married for two years. She treats Xiaoli like her own sister, so she can't neglect her.

"Your Highness, this servant is not in a hurry to marry. This servant hopes to wait until Madam returns to your side before discussing marriage."

Has my mother sent you any news

>th me."Tao Su nodded, looking at Feng Aotian staring at himself. He politely nodded to Feng Aotian. This was truly difficult for him; he feared that in the days to come, he would be targeted."Father,...
