r safety. It is my duty as a prince."Dugu City lifted the curtain and glanced outside, "Has Xi'er not discovered anyone following us"Feng Lingxi heard his words and hurriedly approached, looking out t...Luo Qin Yi immediately agreed, "My master, Ye Xi is right. I think those two children resemble the prince's eyebrows and eyes very much. If we calculate the time, they are about the same age."
Dugu City's eyes darkened, he didn't say a word. Wan'er had even said that Xi'er was married. He knew they were just comforting him.
"All of you, withdraw. This king is weary."
"My lord..."
Ye Xi still wanted to say something, but was stopped by Luo Qin Yi. The two of them walked out.
"Ye Xi, you have to find a way to get the Princess to see the King. If this continues, I'm afraid the King's illness won't improve."
"My lord won't allow it, and I am powerless to help."
Ye Xi glanced at Luo Qin'yi, "Take good care of the prince, subordinate takes his leave."
Feng Lingxi sneezed. Her grandfather's pulse was weak. Yesterday, he was excited because they had returned, showing some signs of a resurgence of vitality. Now, he lay there drained of energy, listless and apathetic.
"Xier, grandpa knows his own body. You don't have to go through so much trouble."
The old general wanted to withdraw his hand, but Feng Lingxi held onto it.
"Grandpa, let me take a good look at you again. I won't let anything happen to you."
"The Crown Prince's situation isn't good either, you help take a look at him, is it someone from the court"
The old general spoke, he had heard about what happened to Dugu City. Although Prince Chen had wronged Xi'er, he was still Prince Chen. This time, he had come in person to visit this old man of his. He couldn't let anything happen to him here.
"Grandpa, what time is it Why are you still worrying about other people's affairs Take care of your own body. The Imperial Physician will take care of Prince Chen."
The old general held Feng Lingxi's hand, patting her back. "Heart illness still needs to be cured by heart illness."
"Grandpa, I'll handle this when I have some free time. Don't worry, Grandpa, just focus on taking care of your health."
The old general nodded, slowly closed his eyes, he was getting a little sleepy.
"Grandpa, Xi'er has boiled medicine for you. You rest for a while."
Feng Lingxi walked out and looked at Feng Aotien who was guarding outside. Seeing Feng Lingxi come out, Feng Aotien immediately stepped forward, "Xier, how is your grandfather's condition"
"I gave him some medicine, don't bother him, let him recuperate well."
Feng Aotian glanced inside the room and hurriedly followed Feng Lingxi's footsteps, "Xier, tell me the truth, is your grandfather..."
Feng Lingxi nodded, watching Feng Aotien's expression change drastically. She said softly, "His time is running out. Spend this time with him well and let him leave without regrets."
"How is this possible"
Feng Aotiān was full of disbelief, "Xier, your grandfather has always been in good health, why is he like this now"
"Shouldn't that be something you ask yourself Grandpa's body is already burdened. He was injured and poisoned when he was young and never properly treated. Before, when he was younger, he could bear it, but now he can't. He's old, and all sorts of ailments have come with age. Although I understand medicine, I don't have the ability to bring back the dead or make Grandpa's body go back to how it was when he was young."
Feng Ling's voice was calm, she hadn't checked her grandfather's pulse yesterday, thinking the situation wasn't so serious, but who knew it would turn out like this.
Feng Aotien remained stunned for a long time, staring at Feng Lingxi. He sensed that she wasn't joking and panic surged through him instantly.
"Xier, are you really out of options"
Feng Lingxi looked at him, "I'm not sure, I can only do my best."
She is not Hua Tuo reborn, nor Bian Que. All she can do now is to extend her grandfather's life, hoping that he has a little more time.
"How could this be"
Feng Aotian's face was very ugly. Looking at Feng Lingxi walking away, although the doctors before had said that, now even Xi'er couldn't do anything. Could it really be hopeless
"Your Highness."
Ye Xi stopped Feng Lingxi, who was preparing to go back at the entrance of Qin Garden. Seeing Ye Xi, Feng Lingxi's expression was cold, and she didn't have a good face.
"I am not your queen."
"Miss Four."
"May I speak with you"
"If it's about Prince Chen, I have no time."
Night Xi shook her head, “My subordinate hasn't seen the Fourth Miss in five years. I just wanted to catch up with the Fourth Miss.”
Feng Lingxi originally thought that Ye Xi would speak up for Dugu City, but she didn't expect this.
"Come in."
Ye Xi followed Feng Ling Xi into Qin Garden, watching the several children playing in the courtyard, her eyes were full of envy. These children, if they were really the prince's, how good it would be. It's just a pity, they are not.
"Mother, you're back"
Feng Lingxi responded and, seeing Tao Su playing with her child, said, "Tao Su, my husband and the prince's guard have something to discuss. Please take the child to the front yard to play. I will come find you later."
Tao Su glanced at Ye Xi, nodded, then left with Feng Siyu and Feng Siqi.
Ye Xi looked at Feng Siqi and Feng Siyu, these two children were very beautiful. There was a resemblance between their brows and eyes and the King, especially the boy. The look in his eyes was just like the King's.
"Miss Fourth, how have you been these past years"
"Don't you see I have children, a husband who is not inferior to your Lord Wang, and he treats me very well. My children are all healthy and happy." Feng Lingxi's words made Ye Xi smile bitterly.
"Miss Fourth, why do you deceive yourself Although I haven't known you for long, it's been a considerable time. Furthermore, I understand your character well. The two children just now were well-behaved and adorable, with some resemblance to yours. However, the boy, his brows and eyes are strikingly similar to the young Master Wang. I have served the Master since childhood, and this child bears a 50% resemblance to him when he was young..."
"What do you want to say Are you saying they are the children of your master"
Feng Lingxi's attitude instantly turned cold. Ye Xi hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean that. I just want to say that Miss Four doesn't need to lie in front of me. I know these past few years have been hard on you, Miss Four."
"The children are not biologically my current husband's, but he treats them like his own."
"Before leaving, the subordinates and the prince went to court. The Empress Dowager asked the prince to bring his child back to the palace. This was not the prince's intention."
Ye Xi's honesty reminded Feng Lingxi of the assassin she had encountered along the way, a smirk curling her lips.
"I've already seen what happens. If you have the chance to meet the Empress Dowager, tell her that my son Feng Ling Xi's child is not hers to take just because she wants it. If she has the ability, let her own son be born."
"Miss Four, it's not like that. The current Empress Dowager doesn't view the Lord as she used to. Since their separation, the Lord refuses to take a concubine, and there have been no children in the inner courtyard. The Empress Dowager is very displeased with the Lord…"
"You said it, not talking about him. We don't have much to say."
Feng Lingxi got up, Ye Xi hurriedly stopped her.
"I apologize, there are just too many topics to discuss. Miss Fourth, please forgive me, I shall refrain from speaking further."
Feng Lingxi took a deep breath, trying her best not to get angry. She agreed to Ye Xi because she also wanted to see if there was any news about Xiao Li from him.s princess will not deign to be a concubine.""This is nature."The Empress saw her relax, and said to Feng Linglong, “Noble Consort Long, Princess Yaohua will stay here with me for a while. You should...
