."This Zhao doctor is over sixty, and with her old bones, her resistance isn't good. If she encounters bumps along the way and gets sick, she would have to take care of one more person.Looking at thes...Take good care of her, and let me know when she wakes up.

Feng Lingxi stood up, her mind filled with everything Aman had said: his mother's disappearance and the turmoil within the Yao clan.

It's the end of the year, and you still can't settle down

No wonder I haven't heard from my mother lately, it turns out the Yao clan really got into trouble.

The Lord, is just a title, given to the members of the Yao Clan who give birth to heirs. There is no real power associated with it.

Du Gucheng saw Feng Lingxi come out and hurried forward, "Xier, what's wrong"

"The person has been rescued and their identity confirmed. It's the mistress's maidservant."

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, “You said how come it’s so hard for me to just want a peaceful year”

Dugu Cheng's eyes were filled with pity, not knowing how to comfort her.

Looking at her like this, I feel so heartbroken.

"My mother disappeared, what did the blood letter say"

獨孤城 took out the blood book, "The Yao clan is in turmoil, Xi'er take care."

Feng Lingxi painfully closed her eyes, "I said these days why there was no news from my mother. The turmoil within the Yao clan, my mother is probably in great danger. We don't even know what caused the turmoil."

"You'll know when Ah Man wakes up."

Feng Lingxi nodded and suddenly said, "Dugu City, I want to go to the street to find people from Yaozu..."

"No, the chaos within the Yao clan must have spread long ago. How many Yao people are still trustworthy"

Feng Lingxi moved her lips, but didn't speak. She just let out a heavy sigh.

How many people can believe that they once thought they had an identity that could make their lives more comfortable and free Now it seems that this identity is just another shackle.

"Go and rest. Ask him when Aman wakes up."

"How can I sleep"

Feng Lingxi glanced at the sky, “I'm going to make a potion for Dugu Yan. You go ahead and busy yourself.”

Looking at Feng Lingxi's departing figure, Dugu City ordered, "Ye Su, strengthen the defenses of the Prince's Mansion and protect the safety of the Princess and her mother."

"Your Highness."

Ye Xi stepped forward and whispered a few words in Dugu City's ear. Dugu City then took Ye Xi out of the mansion together.

The capital city's winds fill the building.

Du Gu Cheng appeared with Ye Xi, looking at the only guest sitting on the second floor and walked towards that person.

At this point, there was no one at the inn. Dugu City couldn't help but glance at that person again.

"It's good to see you again."

Dugu Cheng looked at the man and greeted him, "Dugu Cheng."

That person slightly raised their head, glanced at Dugu City, and the curvature of their lips visibly rose.

"Today, I am here with only one question. After Xi'er was stabbed, was the divine doctor who saved her you"

So what if it is, and so what if it isn't

The man was about the same age as Dugu City. The nobility in his eyebrows and eyes made him no less impressive than Dugu City. What puzzled Dugu City most was the coldness in his words. Although he had a smile on his face, one could feel a formless killing intent from his speech.

"If so, thank you. If not, I apologize."

獨孤城 stood up, turned to leave, when the man spoke.

"A month later, I'll take her back to the Yao tribe."

Dugu City turned around and looked at the person, "Why"

The internal strife within the Yao clan means he wants to take Xi'er back to the Yao clan. This indicates that he is a member of the Yao clan, and his status must be very high.

The Yao people need her.

The man looked at Dugu City, took another sip from his wine cup, and said, "I saved her because the Yao clan needs her."

"This matter, this king cannot decide. You have to ask her."

The man smirked, took another sip of his drink, "She'll be here."

Dugu City looked at him, the certainty in his voice made him very uncomfortable. This person gave him a feeling that was simply too difficult to describe.

No wonder he would talk to Xi'er. Xi'er's identity made him somewhat cautious. He ignored everyone because he was from the Yao clan, so he didn't need to show any face to anyone, even the emperor. In his eyes, the emperor was completely insignificant.

"Since you saved Xi'er, why didn't you tell her Xi'er wants to see you."

The man raised his handsome eyes slightly, “Luo Li.”

Dugu Cheng frowned, watching him gulp down a mouthful of wine, "If she wants to see me, she can come here anytime."

"Luo Li is not your real name, is it"

Luo Li, Luo Li, it's a name with a story. It seems this person has many stories, but whether they are related to Xi'er is unknown. Du Gu Cheng suddenly felt uneasy in his heart. What secrets were hidden behind Xi'er and the Yao Clan There were so many things he didn't know.

Luo Li held the wine glass to her lips and took a sip. She stood up, "Excuse me, I have to leave."

Dugu City watched him walk away, his brow furrowed.

"My lord, shall we go back now"

Dugu City turned and left the inn. Above the inn, Luo Li stared at Dugu City's departing figure, her eyes gradually turning cold.

"Master, shall we make a move"

Luoli looked for a while, then slowly spoke, "No need, keep it, it will be useful."

Back at the palace, Dugu Cheng asked if Amu was awake yet. He didn't see Feng Lingxi's figure, so he went straight to the pharmacy. Seeing Feng Lingxi concentrating on refining medicine, he walked forward, "Xi'er, are you alright yet"

Feng Lingxi saw that Dugu City was back, and hurriedly put down the medicinal herbs in her hands, “It’s already done. I just have nothing to do and want to prepare some antidote to keep around for you and Ye Xi and the others to carry.”

Staying by her side is really too dangerous, that's all she can do.

Dugu Cheng stepped forward, grabbing her hand. His icy hands filled Feng Ling Xi's eyes with concern.

"Hands, how come they're so cold"

Feng Lingxi hurriedly looked at Ye Xi behind her, her questioning eyes made Ye Xi subconsciously lower her head, not daring to speak. Dugu Cheng stepped forward and stopped her.

"Your Majesty went out for a while, it's normal for hands to get cold in such weather."

"Where's normal You have cold hands, this means your body isn't well. I'll make you some tonic to supplement your body."

Feng Ling hurriedly grabbed the medicinal herbs. Just as she held Dugu Cheng's hand, his body seemed a little off. She needed to find an opportunity to ask him about it. This period of time, he always went out with Ye Xi, and she didn't know if he was hiding something from her – perhaps an injury or something else.

"Dugu City, did you apply medicine to your injured place"

"It's done, Ye Xi can attest to that."

Dugu Cheng hurriedly said, Ye Xi was named, wishing he could find a hole to burrow into. The King was going to drag him down! Although the King's injury had been treated, this internal injury was not light and still needed careful care.

"Ye Xi, don't hide anything from me. If I find out you're keeping secrets from me, I won't let you off easy."

Feng Lingxi's words as soon as they left her mouth, Ye Xi almost knelt down with a soft thud on her knees. Dugu Cheng frowned, "Ye Xi, what's wrong with you"

The princess was scared.

Ye Xi grinned and said, "Ever since the princess entered the manor, I've almost gotten used to being scared by her. My legs go weak instinctively."

Feng Lingxi was amused by Ye Xi's words. Looking at his silly smile, the corners of her lips curled up wider, "I'm not that fierce, I'm just worried you guys would hide getting hurt from me."

"How dare my subordinates conceal this from the Princess, Your Highness. The Master's wounds have truly been treated.", there's no harm in letting them see. But you've been working hard this time, staying here with Wan'er every day.""I don't find it hard, actually I'm quite happy here. I practice martial arts with Wa...
