Chapter 1520: L琉璃 Purple Star 59
ession more indulgent than ever."Xier, does your husband look good"Hearing Dugu Cheng's teasing voice, Feng Lingxi withdrew her gaze and glared at him angrily, "Isn't it just looking at you a few more...Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City like this, the smile on her lips widened, as if she had returned to the past.
獨孤城 drank the medicine, the bitter taste made him shiver involuntarily. This medicine was really hard to swallow, and he just didn't like it, but because Feng Lingxi gave it to him, even if it was poison, he would drink it down.
"Give me your hand."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng wiping his mouth with his sleeve, and said, "Give me your pulse."
Dugu Cheng obediently stretched out his hand, watching Feng Lingxi's serious expression. His heart felt as sweet as honey and he was incredibly happy.
Feng Lingxi finished checking the pulse and stood up. "It's much better now. Keep a good attitude, and I will personally treat you and cure your illness."
"So, you're my doctor now"
Feng Lingxi nodded, looking at Dugu City's unusually excited eyes, she gave him a white look, "What are you happy about Anyway, you should eat and drink as usual. You can't stop the medicine."
"Anything Xier gives me, even if it's poison, this King would drink it down without a blink."
獨孤城的突如其來的煽情讓風淩兮冇由來一陣噁心,身上的雞皮疙瘩都起了一身。
"Who made you drink poison Watch your words."
She certainly didn't want to be blamed for the murder of Dugu City.
"Your word is my command, doctor. You have the final say."
Feng Lingxi took the bowl and went out. Dugu Cheng sat there, looking at Feng Lingxi's back with a silly smile. He felt like he was dreaming. Xi’er suddenly treated him so well, even willing to treat his illness and talk to him so much.
Dugu Cheng pinched himself hard, the pain making his brows furrow, yet he laughed foolishly.
The pain, he wasn't dreaming, Xi'er was really speaking to him.
"My Lord, My Lord"
Ye Xi shouted several times, reaching out and waving her hand in front of her master's face. Dugu Cheng didn't react at all, just smiling foolishly. She couldn't hold back any longer, so she patted him, and only then did Dugu Cheng come to his senses and look at Ye Xi.
"What's the matter"
His handsome face suddenly turned cold, completely different from before. The sharpness in his eyes held a deep displeasure that made Ye Xi swallow nervously. He put down the dinner he was holding, "It's time for dinner. The Princess said that you are weak and need to eat more. This wild boar meat was brought back by Master Tao when he went hunting at the princess's request."
"Tao Su and Xi'er went to collect medicine Where did they collect it"
"It's just the mountains around here, not far away."
Ye Xi thought the King would be jealous, but she didn't expect him to have no reaction at all. Instead, he held up their dinner and ate, saying, "Next time Xier goes to collect medicine, you should go with her. Don't let her get hurt."
"Your Lordship, you don't feel jealous at all"
Ye Xi finished asking, and Dugu City frowned at him, “What vinegar are you eating This king is going to eat now.”
Ye Xi glanced around, seeing no one, and whispered a reminder to her lord, "My subordinate means, this Mr. Tao and the princess going together to collect medicine, this is not a good omen"
Even if he has feelings for Xi'er, so what It just shows that Xi'er is charming. Not to mention him, even Huangfu Qingyun was smitten with Xi'er back then, wasn't he Now that she's free, it's normal for people to like her.
“My Lord, wouldn't this be worrying about the Princess being taken away Furthermore, Prince Huangfu hasn't married a Crown Princess yet. His East Palace harem is currently empty. Now that there's a new woman here, what if the Princess suddenly wakes up and chooses any of them at random What will you do then, my Lord”
The food in Dugu Cheng's hands suddenly lost its flavor.
“Xier never looked favorably upon Huangfu Qingyun in the beginning. Do you think she would now Moreover, even if Xier were truly willing to marry him, Huangfu Qingyun, could the emperor and empress of this Arashma Dynasty agree to the match What is Xier’s standing in their eyes Haven't the rumors spread over these years made that clear enough”
It's not that I'm worried about Huángfǔ Qīngyún stealing Xī'ěr away from me, it's more that Táo Sū's arrival is the real danger.
However, Tao Su was a sensible man. He had to admit that Xi'er was good at choosing friends; there weren't any men with impure intentions around her.
Ye Xi scratched her head, "The king is right. It seems that Tao Gongzi is still the most dangerous."
Dugu Cheng glanced at him, then looked up to see Tao Su walking in. Dugu Cheng straightened his posture and stared at Tao Su.
"Lord Chen, I apologize for the interruption."
Tao Su bowed respectfully towards Dugu City, his attitude humble.
"Thank you for gathering medicine for me on the mountain today."
Tao Su's smile, like the spring breeze caressing one's face, was refreshing and invigorating.
"Prince Chen need not thank me, I was only accompanying Xiaofeng to the mountain to gather medicine. I promised Lady Lu that I would protect her safety and naturally wouldn't let her travel alone."
"So, you're in charge of protecting her safety"
Dugu City was surprised by Tao Su's honesty. Seeing Tao Su nod, he couldn't bring himself to be angry with him.
"The little wind has shown me great kindness, Your Highness needn't feel resentful."
Tao Su lightly said, "I'm here because I have an important matter to ask the King of Stars. I hope the King of Stars will tell me."
"Is it related to Xi'er"
Tao Su nodded, not hiding it.
"I want to know if the poison that was put into Xier's body five years ago has anything to do with you. Do you know"
"If I were to say I didn't know about this, would you believe me"
Tao Su nodded, “Trust me, if Prince Chen poisoned Xiaofeng, he wouldn’t have gone completely white haired after she disappeared and fallen ill with these ailments.”
"How do you know that the King's illnesses are all because of Xi'er"
Although I am not from the Great Yuan dynasty, I heard many stories about King Chen on my way here with the little wind. Naturally, I know of them.
"It's just hearsay, you believe it"
Dugu Cheng stood up and smoothed his clothes, trying to appear as imposing as the man in front of him. To Tao Su, his every move seemed like that of a child vying for attention, making him feel childish.
"The prince's thoughts are understandable, but Xiaofeng also heard these rumors. If they are all false, then what Xiaofeng heard is naturally also false."
獨孤城被他話說得一句話都說不出來,看著陶蘇眸中帶笑,緩了緩神,道,“除了問那個問題,你還想要問本王其他問題嗎?”
"The current Empress, that is your mother, wants to kill Xiaofeng and take Little Phoenix's child. I want to ask you, if you were to encounter this situation, what would you choose to do Would you kill Xiaofeng"
"Of course not, this King won't allow anyone to touch her."
Dugu Cheng's attitude instantly hardened. His gaze towards Tao Su gradually became sharp.
"Rest assured, I will never allow my woman to be killed by her own family. Such a thing will never happen."
Tao Su nodded, “With your words, I can now explain to Mrs. Lu. I hope that Prince Chen won’t deceive Xiaofeng because of the child. Though Xiaofeng and I have different statuses, she is my friend Tao Su. For a friend, I, Tao Su, will go through fire and water without hesitation.” it"Feng Ling Xi asked, suddenly feeling heartache for Feng Yu Xi. She fell in love with a man she shouldn't have loved. This child was born destined for her misfortune.The wind and rain made her head...
