has been with you for so long, hasn't he still not had any offspring Xi'er, as a wife, don't you understand these principles"The Empress Dowager's voice was somewhat excited, Feng Ling Xi looked at he..."Ye Xi, follow her."

Fen Lingxi's voice came from afar, and without needing an explanation, she directly took over Ye Xi's horse, leaped onto its back. No matter how hot the weather was, could she possibly lose to it

It's strange, after Feng Lingxi rode her horse, the sun that was blazing high in the sky disappeared within half an hour of their departure. The weather turned overcast, accompanied by a gentle breeze. Though it was still somewhat warm, it was much more bearable than being scorched under the midday sun.

Two hours after leaving Mingde Town, the sky changed. What had started as overcast slowly turned into a thick blanket of clouds. The group could only hurry to a dilapidated temple along the way to seek shelter from the rain.

Boom boom boom

A series of deafening roars were followed by a sudden downpour. Although the caravan found the ruined temple, they still got rained on along the way. Her clothes were soaked, but the children were fine; the carriage sheltered them from the rain until they reached the temple.

Everyone packed up their belongings and set up camp in the dilapidated temple.

The sky outside was as dark as twilight, and it was just midday. A heavy downpour had not let up.

"What a bad day to be out, such heavy rain! I should have known better than to return to Beijing today. This is going to delay my journey for sure."

Feng Aotian patted the rainwater off his body and glanced at Feng Lingxi, "Lingxi, your clothes are all wet. Go to the carriage and change into dry ones. Don't catch a cold."

"It's fine, the weather is hot, it will dry in a while."

Feng Lingxi looked at the others. Everyone's clothes were a little wet, Tao Su's hair was all wet, but Tao Su had never complained. He followed Feng Lingxi from Xigu Kingdom to Daming Dynasty, and he had always been like this along the way.

That's precisely why every move Tao Su made would draw Feng Lingxi's attention.

"Did you bring clothes"

"I brought some, but it doesn't matter. The weather is good, it will dry soon. As for you, a woman's body is delicate, don't catch a cold." Tao Su's voice was gentle. Dugu City, who was not far away, heard this and his handsome face turned displeased.

"I'm fine, it will be alright in a bit. I'm not that delicate."

The sound of their laughter pierced Dugu City's eyes, like needles pricking him, unbearably sharp.

"If you find him annoying, just try to get rid of him. Do you think looking at them like that will make Xi'er come back to you" Lu Nian rolled her eyes. "Look at Tao Su and then look at you, the difference is really huge."

"You have the audacity to say this, after how you assured me before Now that Xi'er has another man by her side, don't you think you owe it to me to handle this"

Lu Nian waved her hand, looking impatient.

"I can't handle it, you figure it out yourself. I don't know you that well, so you deal with your own problems."

"Big brother."

Dugu Cheng shouted, Lu Nian looked at him, her eyes full of disdain.

After much agonizing and struggling, I look quite impatient.

"You said you're so useless, just push your way in."

Before Dugu Cheng could say he couldn't squeeze in, Lu Nian suddenly slapped him on the back. His body leaned forward, and he was about to pounce on Feng Lingxi. A figure quickly pulled Feng Lingxi away, leaving Dugu Cheng empty-handed and almost falling to the ground.

"My Lord, are you alright"

Night Xi rushed forward, he had seen everything that just happened clearly. This Tao Su was really a nuisance, almost the prince succeeded.

Dugu Cheng steadied himself, but couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood. His body immediately went limp, shocking everyone present. Even Feng Lingxi was startled by Dugu Cheng, staring blankly for a while before coming to her senses and watching Zhang, the imperial physician, rush over.

"Doctor Zhang, how is my lord"

Ye Xi anxiously watched Dr. Zhang, who was still feeling her pulse. His tightly furrowed brows were knotted like a twist of rope.

"What are you doing Why are you so ruthless"

Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian, who was standing stiffly beside her, and said angrily, "This is the Yuan Dynasty. If he gives you a problem, the Empress Dowager won't let you off!"

Lu Nian whispered, "How did I know his body was so weak I just slapped him, and he spat out blood."

"The Lord's body was originally weak, how could he withstand such a powerful internal force This has injured his internal organs."

Ye Xi panicked and hurriedly asked, "Zhang Imperial Physician, you should tell me, what's wrong with the Prince How can we cure him"

Doctor Zhang looked troubled, glanced at Feng Lingxi's side, "Night Guard Commander, this official can heal internal injuries, but I fear I cannot mend a broken heart."

Ye Xi fell silent, and after a long while, she said, “First, give the King medicine to heal his internal injuries. Then we can talk about his heartache. Besides, it's not your fault if you can't cure it."

"Your Majesty needs to take good care of yourself during this time. Your health must not have any more accidents."

"The physician Zhang instructed, “I shall first go and prepare medicine for the prince."

Ye Xi supported Dugu Cheng to lie down, hurriedly channeling her internal energy into him. Feng Lingxi, watching beside them, saw Dugu Cheng's pale and bloodless handsome face. She unconsciously clenched her fists. Was his situation really this bad

He just looked rosy and healthy, not like someone who was sick. But now, with just one palm strike, he's been reduced to this state.

"Xi'er, do you want to go and have a look at him This Crown Prince's body has always been weak, and Young Master Lu's joke was a bit too much."

Feng Aotian reminded, he knew Lu Nian and Dugu Cheng had a good relationship, but when it came to fighting, he was really ruthless.

"Mother, why don't you go take a look He looks so unwell." Feng Siqi tugged at her mother's sleeve, her eyes pleading. Feng Lingxi wanted to refuse, but she couldn't bear to disappoint her.

"Mother, treat him as an ordinary patient. A physician's duty is to heal. We should simply fulfill our duty."

Feng Siyu, seeing Dugu City like this, still couldn't help but want his mother to save him. If he died, they would really have no father.

Feng Lingxi looked towards Duguo City, her eyes struggling. Looking at him like this now, she really wanted to go see him and find out what his body had become.

He just made things like this, spitting blood, spitting blood. His martial arts and internal strength are so powerful, could he be deceiving her

"Ahem..."

"My Lord!"

Du Gucheng coughed a few times, blood seeping from the corner of his lips. Feng Lingxi didn't hesitate, quickly walking over and squatting down, grabbing Du Gucheng's wrist to feel his pulse. Her pupils widened instantly, her face filled with shock and disbelief at what she felt.

Is this still the Dugu City she knows

His current body, to describe it as broken and weak would be an understatement. All his organs are damaged; how did he manage to bring himself to this state

"Your Highness, please, save the King! I beg you!"

"Help him lie down, and get me some fire and water." Feng Lingxi ordered. Ye Xi excitedly helped put Dugu Cheng down, while the others went to gather dry grass and branches from inside the ruined temple and started a fire.

Feng Lingxi took out the tools she always carried from her arms and began to acupuncture Dugu City.Dugu Cheng appearing together, she would have suspected Luo Li was behind it. However, Luo Li had been with Dugu Cheng the whole time, he shouldn't be capable of such a thing."Hmm…"Shutai's eyes opene...
