Chapter 564 Conspiracy 51 >
ing she needed to say. Whether or not he was happy was his business. All that mattered was that the princess was well.Huangpu Qingyun clenched his fists, staring at the scene of Dugu Cheng and Xi'er...Dugu City stared at Feng Lingxi's eyes, nodding slightly, "This king will send a message to the General's Mansion."
"Right."
Feng Lingxi took two steps back, holding onto Dugu Cheng's arm and lowered her voice, "When you take Feng Yixuan away, find a way to let Feng Linglong and Feng Yuxi know. These two have been too complacent lately, I need to know what they're up to."
Dugu Cheng lowered his head, looking at Feng Ling Xi's eyes filled with cunning like a fox. He smiled indulgently and helplessly.
If they don't bother you, why go looking for them
“It’s not that simple. Don’t forget what Feng Yuxi and Feng Linglong did to us before. These two are not easy to deal with. Their current calmness is definitely a sign of plotting something bigger. I’m busy here, so I can’t let them have it too easy.”
She wouldn't let them reveal any flaws, she fought against them blindly, wasn't that putting herself at a disadvantage
"Alright, I'll take care of this."
Feng Lingxi charged towards Dugu City, a smirk playing on her lips. "You do seem to be very obedient."
What then
Dugu Cheng lightly tapped her nose, his doting eyes causing Feng Ling Xi to lower her head and smile, a blush hidden beneath her beautiful eyes.
"Little Li got hurt, so I won't take her to the back mountain."
Feng Lingxi thought for a moment, “You have Ye Xi watch Huangpu Qingyun, by the way, ask him to keep an eye on Xiao Li so she doesn't run around.”
Ye Xi went to see Xiao Li today. Ye Xi said that Xiao Li took a sword for him.
Feng Lingxi was stunned for a moment, a smile flashed across her beautiful eyes.
"It seems that Xiaoli's personality is becoming more and more like mine."
Dugu Cheng shook his head helplessly, "Ye Xi's martial arts skills 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 me."
Dugu Cheng looked at the basket in the hands of those people and motioned for her to give it to him, letting her follow behind.
It's rare for Xi and me to have a world of just the two of us, I don't want to be disturbed.
The snow on the back mountain had almost melted. When Feng Lingxi and Dugu City arrived at the back mountain, Feng Lingxi couldn't stop herself. Her knowledge of medicinal herbs allowed her to quickly find what she wanted. The last time she came with Huangfu Qingyun, she knew exactly how many medicinal herbs there were and where they were located, remembering them clearly. What she looked forward to most was the ginseng growing by the cliff edge. However, judging by the age, it should be quite a few years old. Feng Lingxi decided to take it back this time.
Dugu Cheng watched Feng Lingxi skillfully harvesting medicinal herbs. This winter, many medicinal herbs only had a few leaves left, making them difficult to recognize. However, Feng Lingxi could clearly find the medicinal herbs and identify them. Such discerning ability made Dugu Cheng admire her greatly.
Later, we'll head to the cliffside. There are a few ginseng plants there. Dig them up and give them to Huangfu Qingyun to stew with chicken soup to recover his strength.
"I didn't eat"
Dugu City frowned, listening to Xi'er repeatedly mention Huangfu Qingyun, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of sourness.
Feng Lingxi glanced at him, "Several. I'll personally stew it into soup for you."
Dugu Cheng was finally satisfied. Seeing Feng Lingxi quicken her pace, he hurriedly shouted, "Xi'er, slow down, be careful not to slip."
Wind Ling, upon hearing the call, walked towards the direction of the cliff and pointed to a few ginseng plants growing in the crevices. "See," she said to Dugu Cheng, "they're right there."
Looking at Du Gucheng, his handsome brows furrowed slightly. "Are you sure you can dig it out"
Feng Lingxi glanced at the location, nodded, and pulled her waist belt off from her waist, tying it to a large tree beside her. She tugged on it with force and said to Dugu City, "See that spot It's not a landslide, there are rocks and tree stumps, you can stand firm."
And the cliff wasn't very high, so it wouldn't be a problem for her.
"Here I come."
Dugu Cheng snatched the hoe from her hand, used his light kung fu to fly to Feng Lingxi's position, grabbed her belt with one hand, and stood firmly with his feet. Feng Lingxi glanced at herself, then at Dugu Cheng, with a helpless expression on her face. She had forgotten that there were people whose light kung fu was better than hers.
“Be careful of the one at your feet that has no leaves.”
Feng Lingxi shouted, Dugu Cheng glanced at her, bent down and pulled aside the grass beside him. As soon as he dug it open, a whooshing sound of an arrow came to his ear. Dugu Cheng's eyes turned cold, and he hurriedly shouted, "Xi'er, be careful behind you."
Feng Lingxi's figure flashed, dodging the arrow. She followed the direction of the arrow and saw another one flying towards her. She drew her crossbow from her sleeve, aiming it at the incoming arrow. With a swift release, the arrow shot forward. A scream echoed as the other arrow struck its mark, and Dugu Cheng fell beside Feng Lingxi, anxiously watching her.
"Xier, are you alright"
"It's okay, be careful."
Feng Lingxi cried out, watching as arrows flew towards them again. Dugu Cheng hugged Feng Lingxi's waist, and the sword in his hand swiftly struck down, judging that there were several people, and the direction they fired their arrows was also different from each other.
"Protect the Prince, Your Highness."
At the foot of the cliff, someone shouted, and dozens of guards appeared up and down. Dugu City pointed in the direction where the arrow came from, and they all rushed over.
Dugu City hugged Feng Lingxi and jumped off the cliff. He bent down to pick up the arrow they had shot down, his cold face full of coldness.
"My Lord, the person is gone."
"No need to chase."
Feng Lingxi snatched the arrow from Dugu Cheng's hand and took a look, her brow furrowed. "Why is there no arrowhead"
Their purpose was not to assassinate us.
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, "I'm afraid she wants to warn us about something."
"None of us have left the manor. What warning are they giving us Are they forbidding me from digging up that ginseng"
Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow. Of course, her gathering of herbs had nothing to do with them. Feng Lingxi also knew that it wasn't because of this, but what exactly were those people after
What is the reason for this sudden warning
“It must be Dugu Yu’s people. It seems we’ve been under his surveillance all along.”
Feng Ling Xi's beautiful eyes flashed a trace of coldness, "Let him be arrogant for two days, I don't believe he can still solve my poison."
Dugu Cheng watched Feng Ling Xi get angry, and he leaped back to the cliff edge to pick a few ginseng plants. The ginseng wasn't very big, but since Xi'er wanted them, he would naturally pick some for her.
"Get the ginseng and go back."
Feng Lingxi nodded. She had only taken a few steps when her eyes lit up with excitement. She hurried forward, looking at the leaves of the vine and quickly followed it to the root. She said to Dugu Cheng, "Wait for me for a moment."
Dugu Cheng watched her dig the medicine with such earnestness and joy that he didn't want to spoil her mood. He stayed by her side, watching his surroundings, a layer of killing intent flashing in his black eyes.
Anyone trespassing into the back mountain of the manor after it has been cleared will be killed without mercy. Additional manpower will be deployed for this task.
He wanted to see just how many people were operating under his very nose.
"Dugu, please help me."
Dugu Cheng bent over, watching Feng Lingxi dig a pile of things that resembled sweet potatoes, his brows furrowed, "Xier, what is this..."
"Good stuff, take it back, it will be useful."
Feng Lingxi returned laden with spoils, her mood surprisingly good. However, Du Gu Cheng couldn't smile at all. He had just received news that Ye Su was ambushed by assassins on his way back to the manor. Though he escaped unharmed, he was injured.
