Chapter 615: Conspiracy 101

relief."My lord, with all due respect, I think it would be best for you to be honest."Dugu Cheng frowned, "Be honest about what""Just say that you didn't actually lose your memory. I think the Prince..."Please get the doctor."

The General's Mansion instantly descended into chaos.

Within the Si Wangfu, after sending off Feng Yixuan, Feng Lingxi was in a good mood, humming a tune in the pharmacy. She had collected quite a lot of medicinal materials from the Taiyi Hospital recently. Her hands itched to concoct some pills to carry with her on the road.

"Your Highness, you cured the Fifth Young Master, and he won't be grateful to you. How can your mood still be so good"

Xiaoli sat aside, helping to sort the medicine, her face puffed up with displeasure. Thinking about how Feng Yixuan had bullied the princess in the past, and now that the princess had cured him, she didn't know what other mischief he would get up to.

"Do you think I could expect him to be grateful to me"

Feng Lingxi smirked, her eyes twinkling with stars. This time, the General's Residence must be in complete chaos, right

"Since the Queen knows he wouldn't be grateful, how could you still heal him At least leave him something to prevent him from harming the Queen."

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li's puffed-up little face, reached out and poked her cheeks, her playful eyes made Xiao Li purse her lips, "Your Highness, you can still smile."

"After following me for so long, how come you're getting dumber"

Xiao Li looked at the smile on the Crown Princess's lips and pursed her mouth, "The servant is worried about the Crown Princess. The servant doesn't know the Crown Princess's thoughts."

"Refine some medicine, this time make more antidotes. We need plenty of cold and wind remedies, fever-reducing medicines, and antidotes. Oh, and also hemostatics and blood tonics..."

Feng Lingxi carefully calculated that she would write out the prescription later and prepare a portion for Yu Mo. She had to return to Linxi County, where she would be separated from him again. She'd better prepare extra for him so it would be convenient for him.

Little Li watched as the princess began to select herbs. Although she was in a gloomy mood, she still obediently followed the princess's instructions.

"Your Majesty, the General's Mansion just sent word that the Fifth Young Master has fainted. They request your presence."

"He fainted, what does it have to do with me Am I free Tell the people at General's Mansion to hire a doctor themselves."

Feng Lingxi spoke in a cold, harsh voice, a stark contrast to her previous demeanor.

Xiaoli heard Feng Yixuan fainted, and hurriedly asked the Princess, "Princess, what did you do"

Feng Ling Xi curled her lips into a smile, "Didn't you say that Feng Yi Xuan was an ungrateful fellow"

A smile instantly bloomed on Xiao Li's face, "Princess Consort, this servant knew you wouldn't truly cure him. But since he can walk now, Princess Consort, did you poison him"

"You can't say that either. This poison, it definitely has some in it, but it takes time to take effect, probably around two months later"

Feng Lingxi winked at Xiaoli, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. Xiaoli couldn't help but smile back, almost clapping in approval. This was the queen she knew! The way Feng Yixuan treated his queen... if they just let him get away with it, wouldn't that be too easy for him

The General's Mansion

Feng Aotien looked at Feng Yixuan lying on the bed, his face as dark as water. Hearing the servant say that Feng Lingxi refused to come back to check on Yixuan, he clenched his fists in anger, suppressing it with great difficulty.

"General, Young Master Five is unharmed. He just has emotional fluctuations that are too great and his body is too weak. He just needs a good rest for a while and he'll be fine."

After the doctor's examination, he hurriedly reported back.

Feng Aotian looked unconvinced, "Doctor, are you sure that Yi Xuan really fainted because of emotional fluctuations and weakness He just vomited blood."

The doctor looked embarrassed, "General, this is how the examination is done. If you are not satisfied, you can ask another doctor to check you."

Feng Aotien waved his hand, signaling the doctor to leave, and then summoned several more doctors. The results were the same. He finally let out a sigh of relief.

Feng Yixuan woke up and saw Feng Aotiān guarding the room, his face pale.

"Father, what's wrong with me Did Feng Lingxi not cure me"

Feng Aotian hastily said, "Yi Xuan, we have all misunderstood Feng Ling Xi. She really took your poison, and... her father had several doctors check you over. The doctors said that your body is just too weak. You were emotionally agitated earlier, which caused you to spit blood."

Feng Yixuan heard that Feng Lingxi had really cured him, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

"At least Feng Lingxi still has a shred of conscience."

Feng Aotian looked at his son, "Yi Xuan, your father feels you should not think so much. It's important to take care of your health. We won't provoke Feng Lingxi."

"Impossible."

Feng Yixuan's eyes were about to burst into flames as he looked at Feng Aotians worried expression, "Father, you wouldn't really want her to control the General's Mansion, would you She's just trying to control us because she's good at medicine. Without her medical skills, she, Feng Lingxi, is nothing but a waste."

But...

"Father, please don't say any more. Last time I was careless and fell into her trap. I believe the Emperor and his court think this way too. Many people want Feng Lingxi dead, not just me. Sixth Prince wants her dead even more than I do."

Feng Yi Xuan's eyes narrowed, the killing intent in his gaze worried Feng Ao Tian.

"But she is still your sister after all..."

"Father, she is not."

Feng Yixuan rebuked, "She doesn't deserve to be a member of our Feng family at all. She's a traitor who eats inside and outside the house. What qualifications does she have to be a member of our Feng family Our Feng family doesn't have such daughters."

Feng Aotian swallowed the words that were about to leave his lips, and after a long silence, he said, "Take good care of your health, and don't think too much about other things."

Stepping out of the room, Feng Aotian looked at Zhao Shi standing at the door, his eyes full of complexity.

"General, Yi Xuan is right. You can't let Feng Ling Xi be in control. The General's Mansion isn't hers to command. Now we have the Empress and Rong Guifei, we don't need her at all. Keeping her around will only become a stumbling block for the Empress."

"I'll go to the palace once."

Feng Aotian walked out of the General's Mansion, and Zhao's eyes softened gradually, becoming cold. Looking at the maidservant beside her, she said, "Inform the Empress, Feng Lingxi need not be kept."

Feng Lingxi sneezed, Xiao Li hurriedly got up and walked over with a cloak, "Your Highness, quickly put this on, don't catch a cold."

"I don't feel cold, maybe someone is scolding me."

Feng Lingxi rubbed her nose, this medicine wasn't cold, and she didn't want to wear too much.

"Xi'er, Feng Aotian entered the palace to see the Empress."

Du Gucheng walked in, the thick scent of medicine in the pharmacy making him frown slightly. Looking at the various sizes of jars on the table, all filled with pills, he wondered how Xi'er had managed to concoct so many.

He probably went to tell the Empress about Feng YiXuan.

Feng Lingxi moved her shoulders, stiff and sore.

Where did you go this afternoon

Feng Lingxi watched the snowflakes falling on Dugu City's body, her brows furrowed. She glanced at the door, more snow was falling.

"Get ready to leave Beijing, Your Majesty asked this prince some things, so it caused a delay."

Feng Lingxi nodded, "It's true that we should give Dugu Yan more things to do. After we leave the capital, we can't let those few have it easy, otherwise our lives will be difficult."

Dugu Cheng nodded. He thought the same way, so he didn't return until now.

"Xi'er, are these all for use on the road"

Feng Lingxi replied, "It's not enough yet. I plan to prepare more, after all, the journey is long and the weather is like this. Anyone accompanying us might need medicine."

"If you're tired, take a break for a while. There's still a day tomorrow, and we have enough time."

Feng Lingxi yawned, "Xiao Li, pack up. Once those pills are collected, we're calling it a day." Cheng readily drank it down. He listened to Du Gu Su's words with apparent compliance, his expressions hinting at an eagerness to meet Feng Ling Xi. Du Gu Su observed this and the worry in his eyes e...
