l me husband once just for me to hear”"Husband."Wind Lingxi satisfied him, looking at the smile on his face, her heart was full of happiness."My Lady."Duguxing shouted softly, taking her hand. The hap..."Don't bring up these troublesome matters. Finish what you have at hand first. What's coming will come no matter how much you try to hide from it." Feng Lingxi saw that Dugu Cheng was angry, but she still softened her heart and pleaded for Lu Nian. After all, they were blood relatives, and this wasn't something he had caused. In the end, he was also a victim.

Feng Lingxi spoke up, and Dugu Cheng couldn't even get angry at Lu Nian. After all, he knew that this wasn't Lu Nian's fault. His parents made the mistake, so they shouldn't blame him. Besides, since Lu Nian appeared, he had been trying his best to help him.

"Your Majesty, it's not your fault. I just feel that Xi'er has already suffered so much, and now she has to deal with the princess of Xigu Kingdom as well."

Is he not going to be angry if he keeps looking for trouble

"I will do my best to stop her."

Lu Nian comforted himself, he didn't want to meet the princess either. Thinking of that unreasonable princess made him feel troubled.

"She has come here, can your emperor agree"

Feng Lingxi suddenly thought of this key and curiously asked. Seeing Lu Nian sigh, her brows furrowed slightly.

"The Emperor couldn't possibly agree to let her out, but given her personality, since she said she would come find you, she certainly will. The Emperor dotes on this princess and wouldn't stand against her, I fear her arrival this time is no small matter."

"That's a matter between the two countries then."

Feng Lingxi seemed lost in thought, her gaze meeting Lu Nian's nod. A glint of calculation flashed across her phoenix eyes.

“Since that is the case, her arrival will surely attract the attention of my imperial court. As she has come to the Yuan Dynasty, our emperor certainly cannot neglect her. This princess should not arrive in Xixian County with a large retinue; she should go directly to the capital city.”

Feng Ling Xi's words made Lu Nian shake her head hurriedly, "Impossible, she wouldn't go to the capital. She brought troops with her, and once they reached the border between the two countries, she would leave them there and come find you herself. That person of hers would absolutely not make a big show of coming here to find you. She understands these things between the two countries better than you."

"Coming to find me alone"

Lu Nian nodded, watching the calculation in Feng Lingxi's eyes. He was struggling with whether to remind her of this princess's temperament. If she knew, he really didn't know if Xi'er would drive him out of Linxi County.

"Meet force with force, and water with earth. Let it go."

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng, "Quickly help me get this pill out."

She also had to test the potency of the pill, to see if it matched her calculations.

Dugu City responded and looked at Xi'er, who was fully healed and making pills again. He winked at Lu Nian. Lu Nian rubbed his nose and walked out. It seemed that he couldn't avoid a scolding this time.

It's really hard to be a person here, not treated like one either inside or outside.

"Master Lü."

Gu Li handed Lu Nian a bowl of soup. "This is just made, have a sip," she said.

"Here again"

Lu Nian looked at the soup Gu Li handed over. His handsome face suddenly changed color. It wasn't that he didn't want to drink it, but he really dared not. He didn't know if it was because he was too good-looking, but ever since Gu Li had nothing to do these days, she had been stewing soup for him every day. The only problem was that the taste of the soup was comparable to poison.

"I guarantee, this one is really good."

Guly raised her hand and swore to the heavens. Lu Nian couldn't help but laugh, because this wasn't the first time she'd sworn. However, he didn't feel any difference whether she swore or not. The soup she made was truly undrinkable.

"That's when I suddenly felt..."

Before she could finish, Gu Li's eyes turned red, and her gaze towards Lu Nian was almost tearful. She looked so wronged, as if he had bullied her.

"Last time, okay If I'm still not successful this time, I will never let you drink again."

Lu Nian saw her red eyes and hurriedly took the bowl of soup from her hand, forcing a smile and saying, “Alright, I’ll drink it. Don’t cry.”

If someone saw this, they'd think he had done something to Gulli.

But, looking at this pitch-black soup, Lu Nian's heart really turned to ashes. There was no hope at all. This time, she drank it down, and she didn't know how many times she would have to go to the bathroom.

Gu Li looked at Lu Nian expectantly, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Um, are you sure your soup is really okay"

"I solemnly swear," Guli hurriedly raised her hand, "this time I've consulted with many people and confirmed that there is absolutely no problem."

Lu Nian swallowed hard, like going into battle, he braced himself and brought his mouth to the side of the bowl. As soon as he smelled this soup, a strange and indescribable aroma, his stomach churned violently, wanting to refuse, but seeing Gu Li's expectant eyes, he really couldn't refuse.

"Master Lu, please drink it quickly."

Guli was filled with anticipation, watching Lu Nian not drink at all and feeling very anxious.

"Young Master Lu, Gu Li is truly good to you, enviable to everyone."

Night Xi's teasing voice came, Lu Nian hurriedly stopped him, "Come here."

Ye Xi walked up to them, his eyes darting between Lu Nian and Gu Li. He knew that Gu Li had been making soup for Lu Nian these past few days, and every time Lu Nian finished the soup, they would get diarrhea, pulling themselves to exhaustion. It was truly pitiful.

"Help me."

Lu Nian looked at Ye Xi for help, offering him the bowl. “Just once, please”

He really didn't want to experience the feeling of having to squat in the bathroom after drinking it all, most importantly, every time he did, it hurt like hell.

Guli, you can't drink this soup at all.

Ye Xi held Lu Nian's bowl in her hand, her eyes full of disdain as she glanced at the dark soup inside. "You'll die if you drink this soup! If you really want to learn how to make soup, find Xiao Li to teach you. Her soup is very good."

Guli looked at the smile on Yexi's face and instinctively looked at the soup in his hand. "This is what Xiaoli taught me to make, she said it's medicinal food."

"If Xiao Li teaches it, then there's no problem."

Ye Xi sipped the soup in his hand, as if it were Xiao Li who had made it for him. He blew on it and took a large gulp. The anticipation in his eyes vanished instantly, replaced by a sudden change of expression that made Lu Nian swallow nervously. Sure enough, he couldn't drink it.

"How is it Is it good"

Ye Xi handed the bowl to Lu Nian. Looking at Gu Li's expectant eyes, she gritted her teeth and swallowed it under her expectant gaze, then gave her a thumbs up and ran away in a gust of wind.

"What's wrong with him"

Gu Li looked at the bowl of soup, which was halfway down. She sniffed it delicately and said, "This smells pretty good. Yu Mo should like it."

Lu Nian heard this and hurriedly agreed, saying, "You made the soup, Feng Yu Mo would definitely like it. I won't drink it, lest Feng Yu Mo know later and be unhappy with me. After all, he is my sister's younger brother, it's really inappropriate. I'll leave first."

Taking advantage of Gu Li's moment of astonishment, Lu Nian fled.

"Will Yuemo really like it"

Guli glanced at the soup in her bowl, "Actually, I've always cooked pretty well. I used to be a good cook before."

Guli shook her head and carried the bowl back.

Ye Xi clutched her stomach and walked out of the toilet. Her legs felt weak. It hadn't been long, and she was already close to collapsing. She felt completely drained. How did Gu Li have the courage to tell him that this was what Xiao Li had given her

> if I've recovered my memory"Feng Lingxi pondered over this, thinking it was the most likely possibility. If it were truly as she thought, then she would know who the person sent by the Empress Dowage...
