g their marriage She was a side concubine in the Fourth Prince's Mansion, yet he treated her like this."Your Majesty, Shui Side Concubine is the Empress's niece. You must treat her well."獨孤城 listened..."Luo Li, do you still remember what Wan'er looked like"
"Of course I remember her…"
Luo Li's words suddenly stopped, looking at Du Gu Cheng with his arms crossed, a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, she gave him a white look.
"I think she doesn't look like you, she looks like Xi'er."
"Clan Head, the county princess resembles my master by six parts out of ten. She is a breathtaking beauty; compared to you, she's worlds apart. Taking her out would mean anyone who glances at her could immediately tell that she's the master's daughter."
Ye Xi gloated, looking at Luo Li's iron-blue face, even more smug.
"This joke isn't funny at all. Maybe next time you could tell a different one, like some good news about you and Ayin. I'd love to hear that."
Feng Ling Xi opened her mouth, Luo Li's lips twitched slightly, her eyes warning as she looked at Feng Ling Xi, "I'm emphasizing this once again, Ah Yan and I are friends…"
"I understand."
Wind Ling, close your eyes and don't look at Luo Li. Talking to her is pointless.
"Speaking of business, has Ah Yan arrived"
"No."
Luo Li's tone was laced with gunpowder, Feng Ling Xi this woman really wasn't likable at all. She could get him riled up in three sentences, he truly didn't know how a man like Du Gu Cheng could possibly like her
Even Li Wuyan's attitude towards her is different, he's truly blinded by lard.
"The villagers in this village were bitten by mad dogs, brought on by contaminated water. Many villages have gone mad, and it's a poisoning phenomenon. Those who are severely affected are beyond medical help. I think Ah Yan can help me."
Feng Lingxi spoke truthfully, "Human life is precious, I have no mood to joke around. Since these villagers are Yao people, how could I stand idly by"
"Can you please stop meddling in other people's business Do you have time to worry about so much"
Luo Li was extremely impatient. One thing after another had been happening lately, and he was truly agitated, with no mood left at all.
The village head is from the Yao ethnic group. This village has guarded the mission of the Yao people for a thousand years, and generations have lived here in seclusion. Don't say they are not from the Yao ethnic group, even ordinary people, since encountering them, as a healer, one cannot stand idly by.
Feng Lingxi scolded him relentlessly, making Luo Li increasingly agitated.
"If you enjoy meddling in other people's business so much, then stay behind. I have no time for your games."
After the conversation ended, he left with his companion. Feng Lingxi wanted to call him back, but he was already far away.
“So heartless, he is the leader of the Yao clan.” Xiao Li was furious. Seeing the worry clouds on the princess's face, she worried, "Princess, shall I go find Doctor Li Just say you want him to help you, he will come."
"No need, I can do it myself."
Feng Ling walked toward the inside of the house, the village chief's injuries still needed to be treated.
"Ye Xi, go get some people to help."
Dugu Cheng finished giving his orders and followed him in.
Inside, the village head sat on the ground. Seeing Feng Lingxi enter, he hurriedly struggled to his feet, "Holy Lord."
Feng Lingxi stepped forward and supported him. The village head panted heavily, "Holy Lord, I... I can't go on."
"No, just lie down and I'll treat you right away."
Dugu Cheng and Xiao Li hurried forward to help the village head lie down. Feng Ling Xi took out her silver needles and began to give him acupuncture, but the village head stopped her, "Don't waste your energy, I know my own body."
Feng Ling Xi looked at the blood spilling from the village chief's lips, she grasped his wrist and felt his pulse. There wasn't much time left.
"Sorry."
Feng Lingxi's hand trembled violently, she still couldn't keep the village head alive.
"My Lord, I am not afraid of death. I only hope that my Lord will take care of them and their child well."
Feng Lingxi's eyes welled up with tears, she nodded slightly, "Don't worry, I will."
The village head glanced at his wife, watching her sitting in the distance wiping tears, holding the child. That lonely and helpless look was truly unbearable.
"Sān cái, you have a good eye. I'm leaving this village in your hands from now on."
The village head looked at Sān cái and said, Sān cái hurriedly shook his head, tears welling up in his eyes, "Village Head, Sān cái doesn't have this ability, you can't die, this village still needs you as the Village Head…"
"I can't do this anymore."
The village chief coughed, blood spurting out more violently. Du Gu Cheng stepped forward, grasping his wrist, and looked at Feng Ling Xi, "His five internal organs and six bowels have all been shattered."
This woman is so cruel.
Ye Xi hissed from the side, truly unwilling to accept it. She shouldn't have talked so much just now, allowing Xinshui to escape a disaster.
"When I took his pulse before, it wasn't like this."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, her voice full of grievance. The internal force of this world was something she didn't understand. When she diagnosed him, he was only seriously injured, not so severe. But now, it was already beyond help.
Dugu Cheng comforted, "Xinshui's internal strength is extremely high and she controls it perfectly. This palm wasn't meant to take the village head's life; she just wanted him to say what she desired, leaving him with a breath."
The village chief looked at Dugu City, his eyes full of pleading.
"Please, protect the Holy Lord."
Dugu Cheng nodded, “Rest assured, Xi'er is this king's wife, this king will protect her for life.”
The village head, hearing Dugu City's agreement, looked at his wife and children. Even now, they hadn't come to see him.
"Take care."
The village head's wife, hearing this from the village head, tightened her grip on her child's hand. She stood up, tears already wetting her face. But before she could walk over, the village head had already breathed his last.
The village chief's wife collapsed in her chair, staring at her husband who lay dead before her. Holding their child, she wept uncontrollably.
Feng Lingxi watched the village chief leave, her heart feeling heavy. She hadn't expected that she would have implicated him in this matter.
"Leave now, this village doesn't need your help."
After crying for a while, the village chief's wife opened her mouth and looked at Feng Lingxi with a calm expression.
"I knew his identity all along. I just didn't expect him to give up his life for you."
Feng Lingxi hearing this, felt even more guilty. She didn't know the village chief would step forward, nor did she expect things to develop like this.
When the village chief let her leave, she knew he was planning to risk his life to protect her escape. She just hadn't expected that he would end up losing his life in the process.
"Your Highness."
Sān cái was looking at Fēng Língxī, his expression complex.
"They all call you that."
Feng Lingxi looked at the Three Talents, "What do you want to tell me"
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to say that I don't know who the village head is, and I couldn't understand what you were saying just now. But I can tell you're all good people. So, I was wondering if you'd like me to take you out of here"
"We're not leaving yet. Let's heal these people first."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "We can't just let them do this. Xin Shui's affairs have implicated the village head, and the villagers here are innocent, they shouldn't be dragged into this."
"This king has already sent Ye Xi to call for reinforcements. Let's handle the village head's body first."
Dugu Cheng helped Feng Ling Xi get up, knowing she was blaming herself. But who could have predicted things would turn out like thisase wait a moment. I'll have someone check. There are too many gamblers in this den, and I can't remember them all."Please.The casino owner left, and Xiaoli looked at Feng Lingxi with some worry."Your...
