Chapter 1185: Ghost Saint Country 146
lls don't need Xiaoli to help him block the sword at all. You underestimate Ye Xi's strength too much."Let them go, I'm going to gather herbs.Feng Lingxi waved to the Yao people behind her, "Come help...Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Aotian's calculating eyes and reminded in a low voice, "General Zhen Guo, a drop of water's grace should be repaid with a spring. Xi'er doesn't want to take credit this time, and I believe you also understand the reason."
Feng Aotian's body stiffened. He had no idea why.
Anyway, Feng Lingxi doesn't want this credit. He accepts it naturally for the good of the Feng family. For now, he just pretends she's doing it for Feng Yumo's sake.
"The General is absolutely right, this subordinate will definitely remember this kindness and will surely repay it in the future."
Dugu Cheng swept a cold glance, his tone carrying a hint of warning.
“This king hopes that the General will do his duty well in the future and stop plotting against Xi'er. You should know what this king means. Although I didn't say anything when Xi'er was present, it doesn't mean I can tolerate this repeatedly.”
When Dugu Cheng's voice fell, Feng Aotiān's face suddenly changed color, but he quickly concealed it and said with a smile, "The General understands the feelings of King Chen towards Queen Chen. This time, Queen Chen has done a great favor. The General will not repay kindness with resentment. Rest assured, Your Highness."
"That's good."
Feng Aotien broke out in a cold sweat, never expecting Dugu City to have been watching him all along. Fortunately, he hadn't dealt with Feng Lingxi, or else if he had angered him, there would be no benefit for him at all.
"Marshal of the Nation, I've always had a question for you. What kind of person is Feng Yu Xi's mother What is her connection to the Yao Clan"
"This, I truly don't know. As you know, Yuxi and I have already parted ways. Besides, her mother is a character too. Although she is my wife, she never tells me anything about herself. Because of the power of the Yao clan, I dare not ask too much."
Feng Aotian's words neatly pushed the matter away, making it impossible for Dugu Cheng to investigate further.
"Get out."
Dugu City opened his mouth, saw Feng Aotian leave, wrote a letter and sent someone to Tiangxiang Building to deliver it to Ye Mei.
After two days in the slums, Feng Yuemo's rashes didn't turn into blisters. Feng Lingxi spent each day with Dr. Li Su researching an antidote. Following Feng Yuemo's clues, Feng Lingxi quickly modified her own antidote recipe, creating a special medicine. The medicinal ingredients were ordinary, and it had excellent detoxification effects.
Sister, I'm feeling better now.
Feng Yu Mo got up and stretched, his fever had broken, and the rash on his body had also subsided. He felt full of energy now, unlike yesterday when he was so weak.
Feng Lingxi made the concoction into pills and put them in a bottle, instructing, "These pills are very important. Keep them safe and don't let anyone steal them."
Doctor Tian hurriedly responded, "Your Highness, the Princess of Chen has generously imparted this method of making pills to us commoners. We are deeply grateful. On behalf of the people of Tumu Town, I thank Your Highness."
Having finished speaking, Doctor Tian was about to kneel down. The commoners who were nearly healed followed suit and knelt down as well, which truly frightened Feng Lingxi.
"Everyone, get up! This is all within the doctor's purview, you don't need to kneel to me, it embarrasses me."
"The Crown Princess of Chen is kind-hearted, and the Crown Prince also brought troops to protect us and drove away the soldiers from Dongtai Kingdom. We, the common people, are grateful and hope that the Crown Princess will not refuse."
"Your Highness, Crown Princess, we have all seen with our own eyes your kindness to us. We, the people, will never forget it."
Feng Zi Mao also chimed in, his health had improved over the past few days, and he seemed more energetic. He even started calling Feng Wei Mo "brother" and they became quite friendly. This is how Feng Ling Xi learned that Feng Zi Mao was a person of some importance. As for his background, he didn't say, it was clearly something he preferred to keep hidden, and Feng Ling Xi didn't press him further.
Feng Lingxi stopped them, "No matter what, don't kneel and bow. I'm not used to it."
Seeing them get better, Feng Lingxi watched as their bodies recovered. There was nothing more fulfilling for a healer than this.
"When you are all better, I should leave. I have told Dr. Tian the cure recipe and asked Lord Liu to keep an eye on it. This illness will no longer affect you."
"Your Highness, the Princess Consort of Chen, you're leaving already Couldn't you stay a little longer so we could spend more time with you"
Ladies and gentlemen, in order to help you all today, Crown Princess Chen left her daughter who is not yet two years old at home. In a few days it will be the birthday of Crown Princess Chen's daughter, and she has to hurry back to celebrate her child's birthday with her. Please understand.
Li Su spoke, and everyone looked at Feng Ling Xi in surprise. Seeing her smile and nod, everyone fell silent.
"Now that the condition has been resolved, we don't need to keep the Crown Princess here any longer."
The patients were silent, no longer clamoring for Feng Lingxi to stay.
With the illness resolved, Feng Lingxi returned to the post station and asked Dugu Cheng. The Eastern Tai Kingdom had retreated its troops, and they could return to the city tomorrow.
On the day Feng Lingxi returned to the city, the people of Tu Mu Town gathered in the town square. They looked at Feng Lingxi's carriage with reluctant eyes. The villagers even took out everything they had and offered it to Feng Lingxi, saying it was for Wan'er's birthday celebration.
Finally, Feng Ling had no choice but to give in to the people's wishes. They each wrote their names on a piece of paper, and those who couldn't write pressed their handprints on it instead. This served as a birthday blessing for Wan'er.
"My Lady, you promised to take me back with you, didn't you I have no family here. You wouldn't mind taking me back with you, would you"
Feng Zi laughed foolishly, he was at least the same surname. This time he decided to follow Princess Chen, joining the army no matter what, as long as he was with her, it would be fine.
"It's about time we left."
Dugu Cheng glanced at Feng Zi Mao. This trip out, he'd picked up another person. Xi'er's people skills were remarkable. If not for knowing that these people had no ill intentions towards Xi'er, he truly wouldn't want Xi'er to bring them back.
Feng Lingxi nodded, a gentle smile on her face that made her appear even more kind and approachable.
"Lord Liu, just follow what I told you about the memorial. The rest will be handled by General Zhen Guo. I've already given him clear instructions."
Sir Liu looked at Feng Aotian and hurriedly replied, "The subordinate understands, I will see off Prince Chen."
Feng Aotien walked to Feng Lingxi's face, holding a box in his hand, his expression a little embarrassed. He stepped forward and handed the box to her.
"Your Highness, this is a little something for Wan'er. If you don't mind, please accept it."
Feng Lingxi took the box and opened it. Inside was a piece of mutton fat jade pendant, which looked very valuable at first glance.
"This thing..."
Feng Lingxi wasn't sure whether she should accept it. She knew how Feng Aotien treated her in the past, and now that he gave Wan'er a peace charm, it was indeed precious.
This is a little something from me, Crown Princess Chen. Please accept it as a token of my gratitude for this occasion.
Feng Aotian whispered those words, and Feng Lingxi returned the peace talisman to him.
"I appreciate your kind gesture, but I cannot accept it. Wan'er is just a child and cannot wear such an expensive jade pendant. You should keep it."
Feng Aotien was a little flustered and hurriedly said, "This was bestowed by the previous emperor. I've always carried it with me. Now, I give it to her, to ensure her safety and hope she grows up safe and happy. As her grandfather..."cess's journey was too important, she really couldn't stay, before she could finish her words, Feng Ling Xi stopped her, "It's alright, with Empress Cen's protection, they wouldn't dare to act reckles...
