esponded, watching Zhang Mama lead people out of the mansion. Seeing this, San Wangfei hurried forward and stopped them.If you like "Wind Ling Xi Du Gu Cheng", please copy and paste the following URL...At the same time, a knock on the door was heard from outside, accompanied by hurried footsteps.
"My Lord, My Lady, just now an assassin broke in, I brought people..."
The door creaked open. Dugu Cheng stood in the doorway, dressed only in his undergarments, his eyes fixed on the group of people behind the butler. His voice was laced with displeasure.
"Since an assassin has broken in, what does the steward mean by bringing people to this king"
His face betrayed his discomfort, the steward hastily apologized, "It wasn't my intention, sir. I was merely checking, afraid an assassin might have entered the room and harmed the lord and lady."
"You mean there are assassins hidden here Then come in and search!"
Dugu Cheng let out a slit, the steward stepped forward and quickly closed it. His face was awkward. "Where did the King say that How dare the servant search the King's room Besides, the King's martial arts are unparalleled. How could an assassin hide in the King's room The servant will lead people to find elsewhere. Your Majesty should rest early."
獨孤城一聲轟隆關上了房門，管家嚇了一跳，眼底滿是 displeasure, he really treats this place as his own territory.
He slammed the door in his face. This was Yao Clan territory after all.
If the master didn't order it, he wouldn't dare to run wild here.
Dugu City leaned against the door, making sure the steward had walked away with his men before he sat down at the table and looked at Shangguan Huan. "It's fine, they're gone. How did you get caught by him when you came in"
Guan Huan's martial arts skills were not so great that they would be discovered, but the butler's martial arts were quite decent.
Shangguan Huan began to recount recent events. After leaving his home, he immediately sought out his friends and inquired about the poisoning of the Princess. Only then did he confirm that, as he had said, the Princess's amnesia was not caused by a miscarriage from poisoning but by a curse induced by insects. The growth stage of these insects in the Princess's body could indicate the extent of her mental capacity.
"Is there a way to detoxify it"
Xi'er had actually been poisoned by a gu. If it weren't for Shangguan Huan and Ye Mei both saying this at the same time, Dugu City wouldn't dare to believe it. The Xi'er who was a doctor could actually be calculated by someone with a gu poison.
The person behind this must have taken advantage of Xi'er's weakened state due to the poisoning and miscarriage, taking the opportunity to poison her further. Otherwise, how could that person's wish be fulfilled
Shangguan Huan covered his chest, the pain from his wounds causing cold sweat to bead on his forehead.
"There is a way, we need to find a sorcerer from Miaojiang to solve it so it's safe. It's just that I don't know any sorcerers from Miaojiang, otherwise I could go on behalf of the Lord and find someone."
"Dugu City falls silent.
"This matter was entrusted to me by someone else, but I didn't know how long Xi'er could hold on. Most of the time she talks to us normally, except for occasional forgetfulness."
"My lord, if we really can't find another way, then we shall take the Duchess to Miao Jiang. It's a long journey, but with all haste, it should take around ten days."
"Ten days"
"This is the fastest," Shangguan Huan nodded.
"In ten days, I don't know if the toxins in Xier's body will erupt. What's worse, we don't even know who put the poison in her. What if this person can control the worms in Xier's body and take her away Wouldn't that be very dangerous"
He went back and forth to the Xia Dynasty for only a dozen days. According to the time he left for the Xia Dynasty, the worms in Xi'er's body would have been there for almost half a month.
I just don't know how long it takes for these centipedes to grow.
If it's long, it's okay. But if it's fast, Xi’er leaving the side of Zhonggu people, her life will be in danger.
"My lord, perhaps I should go investigate if there are any Miaojiang witch doctors nearby. With someone practicing sorcery like this around, it's likely there are Miaojiang witch doctors in the vicinity."
Yexi spoke up, "Let's go investigate first. After all, we aren't too far from Miaojiang. Perhaps there are people from Miaojiang around here."
"That's all we can do now."
Ye Xi withdrew, but Shangguan Huan did not leave. He stayed in Dugu City's room until the second half of the night before returning to his own room through the window.
The next morning, Feng Lingxi woke up and looked at Dugu City lying beside her. She hugged his neck and kissed him repeatedly on the face, not just once, but again and again.
Dugu Cheng only felt itchy on his face and neck. When he opened his eyes, he saw Feng Lingxi kissing him. Seeing that he was awake, she smiled brightly and happily said, "Husband, you smell so good."
"Good morning, honey. Was it because I smell so good"
Feng Ling xi nodded, her obedient appearance filled Du Gu Cheng with helplessness. This incident from last night, Xi'er probably forgot again, she didn't know he had tapped her acupoints, and she didn't know she smelled the vomit of roasted chicken.
"Are you full yet"
Feng Ling Xi shook her head, then nodded again. Her long eyelashes fluttered, looking very beautiful. Dugu Cheng sat up, and Feng Ling Xi also sat up, looking at Dugu Cheng.
"Where are you going, husband"
"Get up, I'll make you something delicious. Otherwise, what if you eat me later"
Feng Lingxi's eyes lit up when she heard there was food, and a smile appeared on her face.
"My husband, I want to eat roasted chicken."
"The roast chicken can't be eaten, would you like some drumsticks I'll make you some fragrant drumsticks, Wan'er loves them too."
Hearing the aroma of roasted chicken legs, Feng Lingxi's mouth watered. She nodded eagerly, "Yes, yes, yes! I want two large chicken legs."
獨孤城寵溺地輕點她的鼻尖，看著她笑得天真無邪，“這就起來給你**腿吃。” Dugu Cheng petted her nose with a light touch, watching her smile innocently and happily, "Get up now, I'll make you chicken legs to eat."
Feng Lingxi followed behind Dugucheng like a little tail, merrily skipping along. The two of them arrived at the kitchen. When the chefs saw both the King and Queen had come, they were all terrified, thinking they had not done well.
"This king has come to find some food for Xi'er, is there any chicken leg"
"Yes yes yes."
The cook hurried forward, chopped up the freshly killed chicken and served him the chicken legs.
"Just two"
There are still three chickens.
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi with a covetous gaze, "Bring it all here, you all get out."
The cook brought the chicken legs to Duke Gucheng and watched as the king rolled up his sleeves to cook. Her face turned pale, but no one dared ask any questions.
"Xi'er, can you make a fire"
Dugu Cheng glanced at the fire in the stove, "Add some firewood to it."
Feng Ling quickly ran over, sat down, and put the firewood inside. She looked up at Dugu Cheng, who was smiling at her. She smiled foolishly back at him.
"It'll be alright soon."
Dugu Cheng put the chicken legs into the pot of boiling water, took them out, sliced them, then added the seasoning. He cooked them over high heat, and soon the aroma wafted through the air. Feng Lingxi stared at the pot, her mouth watering the entire time.
"Honey, it smells so good! I want to eat chicken legs."
"Just a moment, I'll add more wood to the fire."
Feng Lingxi hurriedly threw the firewood in, the fire blazed fiercely. Feng Lingxi laughed happily.
Dugu City watched Xi'er unharmed by the fire, guessing that this worm should be immune to it.
After the drumsticks were cooked, Dugu City held them out from the kitchen. Feng Lingxi was drooling and following behind, wanting to eat. Feng Lingxi coaxed her all the way, leaving the kitchen.
"The king actually cooks"Great Elder had said during a meeting that Feng Lingxi and Dugu City couldn't come in. Although this little girl was small, she knew her parents' names. Whoever dared to say anything bad about them wo...
