Chapter 557 Conspiracy 44

ked at the king's gloomy handsome face and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, why don't we go up the mountain now and force them to hand over the princess""Since it's a woman's version of men's clothing,..."So, are you going to say it or not"

Xiao Li clenched her fists, "The Third Prince poisoned the Princess. The Princess is overworked, causing the poison to flare up. She asked me to go fetch medicine and brew it for her to suppress the poison in her body so that the Prince wouldn't know. She was afraid that if the Prince found out, he would confront the Third Prince, risking his life. The Princess didn't want to cause a scandal at this critical juncture."

"So, she was poisoned, and there's no way to cure it"

Dugu Cheng's eyes were bloodshot, he really wanted to know, in Xi'er's eyes, how incompetent was this husband of his, that she wouldn't even tell him about something like this.

"My lord, please calm your anger. The princess came because she was afraid you would impulsively go to look for the Third Prince, and also because she worried that you might neglect Crown Prince Huofeng because of what happened with her."

"So she has to bear all this alone"

Dugu City questioned, Xiao Li whispered, "The princess said she could handle it well."

If it could truly be handled well, why would she have made it this way Can the poison really be cured

The princess said she could cure it, but yesterday night she was busy saving the Crown Prince and didn't have time to make the antidote for herself. She stayed up all night and was exhausted. The poison just happened to strike at that moment, which is why she's like this now.

Xiaoli's explanation made Dugu City even angrier. Xiaoli knew, but Xi'er didn't tell him. Did she really think he was impulsive and unreliable

"Xi'er, has she told you many things but not me"

Little Li hurriedly shook her head. “No, Your Highness is just worried about the King, she has no intention of hiding anything. At this crucial moment, she said that the King would definitely look for the Third Prince. Your Highness didn't want to cause trouble.”

"So she's been hiding this from me all along"

Dugu City was furious. Such a commotion, and there wasn't even the slightest sign of waking up. Dugu City's voice sank, "Quickly go and invite the doctor. If the princess has something happen, this king will not spare you."

"This slave shall go at once."

Xiao Li hurried to her feet and rushed out to invite the doctor.

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, her beautiful face, sword eyebrows furrowed, her eyes full of worry and heartache. This foolish woman, how could she be so distrustful of him, carrying so much on her own. If he hadn't been more careful this time, would she have tried to shoulder it all herself

I really want to scold her, but he can't bear it.

In the late afternoon, Feng Lingxi woke up and saw Dugu City by her side. She blurted out, "How are you here Where is Huangfu Qingyun Has he woken up"

"Not yet, but rest assured, Your Majesty has sent Ye Xi to guard him, and several doctors from the city are also attending to him. His condition is stable now."

Feng Lingxi heard this, and the whole person let out a sigh of relief. But the next second, her forehead was tapped by Dugu City. Feng Lingxi, who was in pain, glared at him, “What”

Dugu City's bloodshot eyes made Feng Lingxi frown, "You haven't slept at all"

"With you acting like this, how could this king sleep Tell me, should I strike you"

Feng Lingxi, scolded like that, hurriedly looked at Xiao Li beside her. Xiao Li glanced at Du Gucheng, and the helpless look on her face made Feng Lingxi's expression stiffen. Did she know everything

"The doctor said your body is too weak, you haven't been able to rest properly for a long time, and besides, you've been poisoned."

Feng Lingxi grasped Dugu City's hand, hurriedly explaining, "I can cure this poison. I didn't expect Huangpu Qingyun to be injured this time, causing you to worry. I'm sorry."

The fire in Dugu City's stomach was completely extinguished by her apology. Looking into her apologetic eyes, he really couldn't bear to scold her any further.

"You know I wouldn't ask you for something I could do myself. After all this time together, don't you know my character"

Feng Lingxi lowered her head and said, "It's not that I don't trust you, nor is it that I don't want to tell you. It's just that I feel it's unnecessary. I can handle it myself."

"Xier, this king is your husband."

Dugu Cheng's voice was full of helplessness, "This king knows you have the ability, but at least tell this king something, so that this king knows what's going on with you. If this king doesn't keep an eye out this time, and if something happens to you, how can this king handle it"

Taking a deep breath, Dugu City tried his best to suppress his emotions. He really felt that in front of her, he had no sense of existence.

Feng Ling Xi raised her eyes, meeting the heartache and helplessness in Du Gu Cheng's gaze. She knew that this time she had indeed worried him. She tugged at his sleeve, looking at him pitifully. Du Gu Cheng was disarmed by her act of coquettishness and sighed softly, "I'll make an exception this time."

Feng Lingxi rushed to him, revealing a smile. She raised her hand and smiled very cutely, "Good."

"Drink the medicine."

Xiao Li hurriedly brought the medicine over. Dugu City looked at her, "You don't cherish your own body like this, what if you get sick in the future"

"My medical skills are so good, how could it possibly..." Before she could finish her sentence, Feng Lingxi sneezed and met Du Gucheng's gaze. She laughed awkwardly, "An accident."

Xiaoli smiled gently, looking at the loving couple, the king and queen, with envy on her face.

"After I finish this, can I go see Huangfu Qingyun I'm not comfortable leaving him alone."

"There were several doctors guarding over there. You should wait until your own body recovers before talking about it."

Feng Lingxi still wanted to say something, but when she met Dugucheng's domineering gaze, she could only tell Xiaoli, "Go and have a look, tell the truth."

"This slave will go at once."

Xiao Li received the queen's instructions and hurried out.

"The person who assassinated Huangfu Qingyun left no clues whatsoever. We can only wait for him to wake up to find out who did it, perhaps even he doesn't know himself."

Dugu Cheng's words caused Feng Ling Xi's brows to furrow slightly, "Then, will we be able to find the culprit"

"This King has sent word to the palace, both the Empress Dowager and the Emperor take this matter seriously, they will increase manpower. The banquet for the Western Regions envoys is about to begin, we can't have any trouble, I hope those who cause chaos will be more behaved."

"It shouldn't be many people in the manor who know about Huangfu Qingyun, how did he get assassinated here"

Feng Ling Xi fell into thought, analyzing the possibilities, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't figure it out.

Dugu City shook his head, unable to find any clues. That is to say, this assassin, Huangfu Qingyun, very likely knew about it.

Unless they could sneak into the manor and assassinate Huangfu Qingyun without anyone noticing, escaping undetected.

The force of the arrow indicates that whoever assassinated Huangfu Qingyun showed mercy, or else Huangfu Qingyun might have died instantly.

Feng Lingxi recalled the position of the arrowhead stuck in her chest, leaving a slight gap. At the time, she found it quite puzzling. Now, analyzing it, perhaps Huangfu Qingyun really knew the person who attacked her.

"My Lord, My Lady, Prince Wangfei has awakened."

Xiao Li rushed in and shouted, Feng Lingxi hurriedly got up and put on her shoes. Dugu Cheng took a fox fur cloak and draped it over her, and Feng Lingxi immediately ran to Huangfu Qingyun's room.

Just waking up, Huangfu Qingyun looked at Ye Xi guarding by his bedside. He knew that Dugu Cheng and Feng Lingxi were also here. His lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything.
