Chapter 1143: Ghost Saint Country 104

re you truly alright""There's a cave under this cliff, I just saw it. My crossbow can safely take me down to the cave. You guys go find the king to save me. Whether or not I survive depends entirely o...Ye Xi stopped Shangguan Huan, "Is there something wrong"

Shangguan Huan looked around, making sure no one was eavesdropping before lowering his voice and saying, "The princess may have been tricked. I need to find out if her situation is really as I suspect."

Ye Xi heard the plot, breaking out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly said, "Then what you mean is that Dr. Li..."

"Shhh."

Shangguan Huan hurriedly stopped him, "We don't know for sure yet, don't overthink it. I'll investigate and let you know later. For now, just keep an eye on the princess and observe her condition. Wait for me to return. If I don't come back in three days, then try to tell the king about this and ask him to be more careful."

Ye Xi's expression was solemn. Was Shangguan Huan worried that someone would attack him

But if it was really Dr. Li who harmed the princess, wouldn't he have done it already

Both the Imperial Physician and the Princess had known each other for several years. It was impossible for them to turn against each other at this time. Ye Xi was unwilling to believe it, but he couldn't help but doubt it either. After all, the Princess's life was at stake, and he had to be careful.

Ye Xi knew why Shangguan Huan followed the Princess Consort, and there was no need for him to frame Dr. Li and the Princess Consort.

"Be careful, I'll wait for you to come back."

Shengguan Huan responded and left. Ye Xi stayed there, pondering for a long time, then walked towards the princess and Xiaoli.

Feng Lingxi, tired from playing, sat on the stone bench basking in the sun. Her stunning face was full of fatigue and weariness.

"Little Li, I'm tired."

"My lady, would you like me to escort you back to your chambers to rest"

Feng Lingxi shook her head, pouted, and her eyes were full of longing, "I want to eat roast chicken, I want to eat barbecue."

Xiao Li's face was full of distress, "Your Highness, Dr. Li said you can't eat these things now, you have to endure it."

But I'm really hungry, I'm so craving it, my mouth is watering.

Feng Ling xi pitifully looked at Xiao Li, that expression made Xiao Li feel distressed.

"My Queen, you mustn't eat so much. It's important to take care of your health. Dr. Li said that in a few days you will be able to eat again. When the time comes, I will prepare lots of barbecue for you. Please hold on for a few more days, okay"

Feng Lingxi bit her lip, looked at Xiao Li, struggled for a while, and nodded.

"Well then, I won't eat. I'm going to sleep."

Xiaoli hurriedly helped Feng Lingxi back to the room to sleep. Feng Lingxi fell asleep as soon as she got into bed. Xiaoli covered Feng Lingxi with a quilt and walked out, looking at Ye Xi who was guarding the door and said, "The princess is asleep."

"Xiaoli, come here."

Yexi pulled Xiaoli aside, looked around, saw that no one was watching them, and there were no people moving. She lowered her voice and asked, "Xiaoli, do you really not remember what I said to you when I left that day"

"I told you I don't remember, why do you keep asking me this"

Xiao Li's tone was impatient, Ye Xi was not giving up, and continued to ask, "Do you remember what happened these days"

"Nonsense, of course I remember, I'm not stupid."

But the princess couldn't remember.

Ye Xi spoke, watching Xiao Li frown and look impatiently at the princess. She tugged on her sleeve, "Don't you think the princess is acting very strange right now"

"Where's something wrong Doctor Li said it was because the poison hadn't been completely purged, causing memory confusion. The princess suffered a severe injury and chose to forget."

"Although that may be the case, is it not a tad too quick for the Princess Consort to choose to forget"

Seeing Xiaoli's impatience, Ye Xi asked cautiously. Xiaoli's words were quite normal, it was just that the princess, she really forgot things quickly.

Xiao Li looked at Ye Xi, her eyes full of confusion, "What do you mean by that"

I just think the princess'...

Before Ye Xi could finish her words, she saw the steward walking over from afar. This steward had been getting close to Li Wu Yan recently. Ye Xi recalled what Shangguan Huan had said and felt a sense of apprehension towards the steward.

"It's fine, I was probably just worrying too much."

Ye Xi scratched his head sheepishly, Xiao Li gave him a withering glance, "I'll go get something for the Princess."

Since that day, Feng Lingxi had been clamoring for barbecue every day, and each time she demanded it more fiercely. Just like before, she would forget everything that happened the day before. What made Ye Xi most curious was that the queen's mental state was becoming increasingly like a child. When she couldn't have barbecue, she would cry like a child and needed to be coaxed, and even then, it wasn't always successful.

Three days passed quickly, and Ye Xi did not wait for Shangguan Huan to return. Instead, she heard that the king had returned, which relieved her.

Dugu Cheng returned to Linxi County, Feng Yu Mo and Feng Yi Xuan followed him back to the Yaozu General Mansion. This time back, Li Wu Yan was not at home. After asking the steward, they learned that he had gone out to buy medicine.

"My Lord, you're finally back."

Ye Xi walked to Dugu City's face, her eyes turned red. Dugu City glanced at the yard, "Ye Xi, Xi'er she..."

The Princess just fell asleep, the King will rest for a bit, and then he can go see her once she wakes up.

Xiaoli smiled sweetly, looking at Wan'er standing beside Tian Xiaomi. She waved to Wan'er excitedly and greeted her, "Wan'er."

Wan'er looked at Xiao Li, as if she didn't recognize her.

"My Lord, what's wrong with Wan'er"

Xiao Li's face changed, she never used to act like this. Now, it seems like Wan Er doesn't even recognize her anymore.

"Wan'er has been like this lately, she's been too frightened."

"Aunt, Mother."

Wan'er spoke, and Tian Xiaomi nodded, taking Wan'er's hand. "I'll take you to see your mother," she said.

Xiao Li looked at the two of them, her gaze falling on Tian Xiaomi's flat abdomen. She remembered that Tian Xiaomi was pregnant, so what was going on Where was her belly

Upon hearing Wan'er's request for her mother, Dugu Cheng instinctively stepped forward. "Father will take you," he said.

Wan'er avoided Dugucheng's touch along the way. This was always the case, Wan'er treated him as if he were a bad person. Such a change was hard for Dugucheng to accept.

Finally, she spoke, but still refused him.

"My lord, I'll take her there."

Ye Xi hurriedly pulled Du Gucheng, lowering her voice and saying, "Your Highness, let them in, Your Highness... the Empress..."

Looking at the steward's gaze, "Something has happened to the princess. I was about to report it to Your Majesty. My lord, may I have a word with you"

獨孤城當下沉了臉,察覺到這裡驟然變了氣氛,目光落在管家身上,見到獨孤城看他,管家隻是一種禮貌的點頭,並冇有任何的反應。 Dugu Cheng's face fell immediately, sensing the sudden change in atmosphere. His gaze landed on the steward, who merely nodded politely when he met Dugu Cheng's eyes, without any reaction whatsoever.

Dugu Cheng and Ye Xi walked to a slightly farther point before Ye Xi told Dugu Cheng what had happened to Feng Lingxi, including Shangguan Huan's words. She told the king everything.

This time when the Prince returned, who knows what would happen. Wan'er like this, and Tian Xiaomǐ watching her also doesn't look good. I'm afraid everyone has had a hard time these past few days.

He must tell the prince what happened, so that he has an idea of the situation and avoids further trouble.

"Wasn't Li Wuyan treating Xi'er How could she end up like this"gered in her mind, and she was afraid that the empress dowager would plot against her."Mother, Yao Hua has something she's always wanted to ask you.""What's up"The Empress Dowager looked at Feng Lingx...
