ugu City still refuses to return to the capital. Now Feng Lingxi has been sent to Huangxia as a betrothal gift. If Dugu City doesn't show up, how can she get the Zi Xing from Feng LingxiDugu Yan frown..."My subordinate dares not make any rash judgments. I just saw that the Princess's eyes looking at her lord were like they used to be."

What kind of eyes did you have before

Dugu City came to his senses and asked, "I didn't notice that. I was only worried about Xi'er's safety. Now that Ye Xi said this, he began to wonder if it was because she jumped off the cliff that stimulated Xi'er, causing her memory to recover"

If that were true, Xi'er not recognizing him could be understandable, after all, she was frail.

"My lord, Your Highness should know better than I what your former wife looked at you with."

Ye Xi risked her life to speak up, and Dugu City turned around and walked into the room. He saw Xi'er sleeping soundly on the bed and hadn't woken up yet. He walked to her side and sat down.

Huangfu Qingyun was busy, but upon hearing that Feng Lingxi had fainted, he hurriedly brought Zhang Taiyi to Yao Mansion. Dugu Cheng stood up and looked at Huangfu Qingyun as he walked in, his gaze falling on Zhang Taiyi behind him.

"Fourth King, how did Xi'er faint"

Huangfu Qingyun stepped forward and immediately asked Zhang Taiyi to examine him.

"Your Highness, may I have a word with you"

Dugu Cheng absolutely told the truth, Xi'er was his queen. If she really recovered her memory, he also wanted to know if Huangfu Qingyun would let go.

Huangpu Qingyun followed him aside, "Fourth Prince, are you worried about those assassins today"

"No, this king has something he wants to ask the prince's opinion on."

"The Four Kings, please speak."

Huangfu Qingyun felt a sense of foreboding in her heart. Then she heard Dugu Cheng say, "If Xi'er recovers her memory and chooses to be with me, will His Royal Highness the Prince consent to my union with Xi'er"

Huángfǔ Qīngyún's expression changed suddenly, and she glanced at Fēng Língxī on the couch, "Do you mean Xī'er has recovered her memory"

"I'm not sure yet, I just wanted to ask what you mean."

Huangfu Qingyun heard Dugu Cheng's words and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. It was fine if it wasn't certain. He was really afraid that Dugu Cheng would tell him that Xi'er had recovered her memory. Then he would have no chance at all. Although he knew his chances were slim, he still wanted to fight for them.

"Until you confirm what you're saying, this palace cannot answer your question."

He is like this, refusing to give up until he reaches the Yellow River. As long as Xi'er hasn't recovered her memory, he still has a chance.

Dugu City patted his shoulder, "This answer, this king is very satisfied with."

Huangfu Qingyun didn't understand what he meant. He wasn't sure if he could let go. He was happy, could it be that he wasn't afraid of him taking Xi'er away

"Are you so confident in your feelings for Xi'er"

"Yes."

Huangfu Qingyun walked to Feng Lingxi's face, "If you are so confident, why do you still ask the palace"

"This king fears you may not understand. This king does not wish to be your enemy."

"We are not enemies, and I would never start a war between our nations because of feelings. Dugu City, I believe you feel the same way."

The Emperor and Empress said that Dugu City was a good candidate for king. If he ever wanted to be emperor one day, they would help him, in exchange for peace between the two countries in the future.

In contrast, Emperor Dugu Yan was far inferior. He left all court matters to the Empress Dowager and was just a puppet emperor. He even murdered his father to usurp the throne. Such a person is not qualified to be an emperor at all.

Two men looked at each other, their eyes not filled with hostility but with a shared smile of understanding.

"Your Highness, Miss Lin has woken up."

Upon hearing the physician, Zhang, speak, Huangfu Qingyun hurriedly walked over and looked at Feng Lingxi who had opened her eyes. She stepped forward and asked, "Lingxi, are you feeling unwell"

Feng Lingxi looked at Huangfu Qingyun's worried eyes, and for a moment, she didn't know what to do. She had fallen off the cliff and he had taken care of her. His affection for her was obvious. Before she recovered her memory, she could pretend not to know, but now, how should she handle this feeling

"Xier, what's wrong Are you feeling unwell"

Huangfu Qingyun saw Feng Lingxi being blown by the wind and remained silent. Worried, he grasped her hand, his concerned gaze causing Feng Lingxi to abruptly withdraw her hand.

Such an action caused Huangfu Qingyun's face to stiffen. He looked at her hand that was being pulled back, his gaze falling on Feng Lingxi.

"Xier, you..."

"I'm fine, I just woke up. My head is still a bit dizzy and I haven't adjusted yet."

Feng Lingxi's attitude was noticeably less enthusiastic than before, and her eye contact with Huangfu Qingyun had changed. There was no clarity in her eyes anymore, only evasion and unease.

Huangfu Qingyun looked at her attitude and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

He wanted to ask Xi'er if she had recovered her memory, but he was afraid of knowing the truth, afraid that she would tell him and make him give up.

"Xier, are you really not feeling unwell anywhere If you are, just tell me."

Wind Lingxi looked at Dugu City walking over, and if she didn't say anything, it was fine. The moment she spoke, she became furious, "Dugu City, what are you doing bringing me to jump off a cliff Don't you fear I might die"

She was furious just thinking about it. All she wanted to do was go up and look at the cliff, but he had insisted on taking her to jump off! And then he'd even held her underwater, making a move on her. If it weren't for him coming here to see her, she would have blown up at him already.

"Xi'er, I was impulsive. I apologize to you, but Xi'er, after you jumped down and got a headache, did you remember anything"

Dugu City opened his mouth to ask, Feng Lingxi originally wanted to say it directly, but hesitated the next second.

Seeing the fear and worry in Huangfu Qingyun's eyes, Feng Lingxi suddenly felt that it would be cruel to say it out loud.

But if I don't say anything, it will only make Huangfu Qingyun sink deeper, and he will be hurt even more in the end.

"I'm hungry."

Feng Lingxi evaded answering their questions. She needed to think carefully about how to tell them she had recovered her memories, at least for now, it couldn't be said.

Huangfu Qingyun's eyes dimmed. Xi'er didn't speak, was she not remembering, or was she trying to conceal the fact that she had recovered her memories

No matter what, he wants to keep trying and not give up like this.

"You guys chat, I'll go get something for Xi'er to eat."

Du Gucheng went out, Feng Lingxi looked at Huangfu Qingyun's forlorn eyes and said, "Huangfu Qingyun, I'm fine, don't worry."

"Xi'er."

Feng Lingxi looked at him hesitating, and asked, "What do you want to say"

"Have you recovered your memory"

Although he didn't want to think about it, he could see that Xi'er's eyes had changed. They were no longer the same eyes he knew.

"Yes."

Feng Lingxi, resigned to the fact, admitted that Dugu City was gone.

Huangfu Qingyun's heart ached terribly. Her response was so readily given, without any hesitation, and his heart ached even more intensely.

"Then why don't you tell him"

Feng Lingxi took out the Zi Xing, “Wait until Yao Feifei is caught and the crisis of the Yao Clan is resolved before we talk.”

"Do you want to see if Dugu City truly cares for you"

Seeing that she didn't answer, Huangfu Qingyun hurriedly said, "Think about it, I can help you, Xier. You just have to say, yes or no"

"Emperor Light Cloud, I'm very glad to meet you. I'm fortunate to have met you when I was at my weakest, but I can't be with you in the end."expression. She suddenly felt much better."Now, where can we enjoy such tranquility We'll savor it slowly after our revenge is successful."獨孤城將她拉進懷中，語氣帶著警告，“為什麼現在就不能，難不成有人打擾我們？” This translates to:獨孤城...
