Chapter 560: Conspiracy 47

s is no easy feat either. One slip up could cost lives."My lord, can't we burn this grain"If we burn their grain stores, at worst, we bring a squad and risk it all to burn their grain. Let's go for an...Feng Ling Xi, upon hearing this, flashed a moment of panic in her beautiful eyes before quickly masking it. She smiled and said to Dugu City, "Treating the poison isn't a big deal for me, why are you so nervous"

獨孤城 looked unconvinced, staring at Xiaoli standing beside him, and asked anxiously, “Is the poison on the princess cured”

The Queen has already figured out a way to remove the poison, she just needs some more herbs.

Xiao Li finished speaking, hurriedly lowering her head for fear that the King would see through the lie in her eyes.

"Dugu City, you don't believe me,"

Feng Lingxi frowned, her expression displeased. Seeing this, Du Gucheng soothed her, “This king doesn’t distrust you, just afraid that you will take it lightly and not care about your own body.”

"That's not believing in me."

Feng Lingxi's displeasure grew, and Dugucheng felt even more uneasy. He knew that his Xier wouldn't argue with him like this, she wouldn't waste so many words on something like detoxification. She was usually so confident. Could it be that this time, Xier wasn't sure about the poison

"What other herbs are needed This King will have someone buy them for you."

"Later, I'll have Xiao Li give you the prescription. It just so happens that it's snowing today. I was planning to return to Beijing to buy it, but since you can have someone buy it for you, then have them do it. Get the poison antidote as soon as possible and don't worry anymore."

When Feng Lingxi said it like that, Dugu City actually felt like it was true.

"Whatever you need, my love, just ask. Remember, I am your husband."

Dugu Cheng reminded her repeatedly, he's been very busy these days and was worried about neglecting Xi'er and something like that happening again.

"Understood. Is there anything else If not, would you like to have dinner with me"

Feng Lingxi knew he was busy and hadn't accompanied her for meals in several days, nor had he touched her. However, this was also good, as it allowed her to conceal the poison within her body and prevent him from discovering it.

I have to go out for a bit. How about another time

"I knew you'd say that. It's fine, I won't force you. But, did Huangfu Qingyun say who assassinated him He even considered the assassin his brother, and he wouldn't tell me who it was!"

"He is his guard."

"Really him"

Feng Lingxi swallowed nervously. Her guess was right, but, "Why is Huangfu Qingyun so good to him"

"He doesn't know, and if you don't have anything important to ask him, just leave him alone to recover."

Feng Lingxi nodded, understanding. She wouldn't ask further; besides, she had more pressing matters to attend to. The poison in her body needed a solution, or else it would be her own demise.

"This king shall attend to business first. You should rest early. After I'm done, this king will take you back."

"No rush."

Feng Lingxi watched as Dugu Cheng walked away, hurriedly closing the door behind him. She felt a sudden dizziness and Xiao Li quickly stepped forward to help her.

"Your Highness, how are you"

Feng Ling hurriedly took out a pill and swallowed it, then sat down to rest for a while before saying after a long pause, "I'm fine."

This poison is truly formidable, she can't hold it back.

She reached out, rolled up her sleeve, and looked at the black line spreading across her arm. Feng Lingxi suddenly had an epiphany and said to Xiao Li, "You go back home quickly and bring me the Tianshan Snow Lotus that Dugu Yu sent."

"My lady, I can't bear to leave you alone."

"Smooth sailing."

Xiao Li's face was full of worry. After thinking for a moment, she said, "I'll go find someone to protect the princess. I can't leave the princess alone."

Feng Lingxi nodded, "Do as you please."

It wouldn't be too difficult for them to find a Yao person to protect her safety.

Xiao Li found a Yao clan member to protect Feng Ling Xi, but she didn't know that in the dark, Dugu Cheng had already sent someone to secretly protect Feng Ling Xi. This person was Ye Su.

After Feng Lingxi was poisoned, Dugu City worried about her health. Knowing that she was stubborn and didn't want him to worry, he could only send Ye Su to watch over Feng Lingxi and inform him immediately of any situation.

After Xiao Li left the mountain villa, Huangfu Qingyun received the news and was a little worried that Feng Lingxi would be alone in her room. So he sent someone to invite her over, saying he had something to talk to her about.

After Feng Lingxi swallowed the pills, she only temporarily suppressed the attack of the poison. Her complexion was very pale. She needed a good rest, but Huangfu Qingyun approached her, so Feng Lingxi couldn't refuse. However, she didn't expect that as soon as she arrived at Huangfu Qingyun's room, her pale face gave away her condition.

"How are you feeling Is your wound still hurting Would you like me to change it for you"

Feng Lingxi stepped forward, her face unusually pale. Huangfu Qingyun looked at her like this, his eyes full of worry.

"Xier, hasn't your poison been cured yet"

Feng Lingxi's body trembled, her expression unchanged as she asked, "Why do you keep asking like Dugu City It's just a bit of poison, can I not solve it"

"Your face is pale, with no blood in it at all."

Huangfu Qingyun spoke, Feng Lingxi hurriedly held her face, meeting Huangfu Qingyun's worried eyes. Thinking of the pill she had just taken, she was afraid it hadn't worn off yet.

"Perhaps it's because the weather is too cold, I don't feel well..."

"Xi'er, you may have deceived Dugu City, but you can't deceive me."

Huangfu Qingyun's voice was full of worry, "The you I know wouldn't say that. The cold weather isn't a reason at all."

Feng Lingxi didn't know what to say. She couldn't fool Huangfu Qingyun, and Du Gucheng even less so. It seemed that Du Gucheng didn't believe her words either.

"This poison is rather strange. I haven't figured out an antidote yet."

Wind Lingxi didn't want to hide anything from Huangpu Qingyun, and truthfully said.

"I hadn't thought of that..."

"It'll be alright."

Feng Lingxi interrupted Huangfu Qingyun, looking at the worry in his eyes, she pleaded, "If Dugucheng asks, just say I'm refining the antidote. I don't want him to worry."

"Didn't you say you could fool him"

Feng Lingxi's words that were about to reach his lips swallowed back, even if she couldn't deceive him, she hoped that he wouldn't discover it so quickly. Maybe, when he knew, the antidote would be researched out

Dugu Cheng has been very busy these days. Perhaps after he finishes his work, the antidote will be ready.

Huangfu Qingyun looked at the smile on her face and felt uneasy, "If he knew you were like this, he would be very angry."

"Haven't you also kept things from me I'm not without anger, either."

Feng Ling Xi's words caused Huang Fu Qing Yun's expression to flicker, could Du Gu Cheng have told her everything

Didn't I tell you, Xier How come he said it first instead

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. If I can't even solve this poison, then I'd truly be letting my master down." It's a shame for someone with her reputation as a medical doctor's apprentice to not have a way out of this situation.

Huangfu Qingyun nodded, watching her feign nonchalance with a shrug. "I can keep it from Dugu Cheng," he said, his voice laced with concern, "But you have to tell me, no matter if the poison can be cured or not. Wait for me, and we'll figure something out together."

Feng Lingxi smiled at him, "I can detoxify it."
