in court. He was even secretly promoted and trusted more.Feng Lingxi naturally didn't know these things, but Feng Aotiao knew clearly. The empress had investigated thoroughly. The situation on the sid...When Shu Taifei heard Feng Lingxi's voice, she hurried out. Her body was stained with blood. Feng Lingxi pulled Shu Taifei and hurriedly checked her, but Shu Taifei stopped her.

"Xier, it's not that Mother Consort was injured, you come."

Wind Ling Xi hearing that her mother was fine, finally relaxed.

Feng Lingxi dragged the woman dressed as an assassin to Shutai's bedside. Looking at the pale-faced woman lying on the bed, Feng Lingxi looked at Shutai, her eyes full of shock.

"Mother, she…"

"Xier, save her, I'll explain to you later."

Feng Lingxi nodded and hurried forward to check. Just smelling this strong smell of blood made her feel nauseous and want to vomit.

The morning sickness reaction was surprisingly severe.

Feng Lingxi endured the discomfort in her stomach and stepped forward to check the female assassin's body. She had six or seven wounds on her body, several of which were sword wounds, but they were all superficial. The most serious wound was in her chest, where an arrow pierced her. If Feng Lingxi hadn't gotten closer, she wouldn't have noticed it. The female assassin had broken the arrow, and the arrowhead was still inside.

"Mother, please have Xiaoli bring over my tools."

Feng Lingxi ordered, taking out a handkerchief to cover her face, blocking some of the bloody smell so as not to vomit.

Shutai hurriedly ordered someone to do so, then asked Feng Lingxi, "Xier, is she still salvageable"

She can hold on until now, nothing will happen. It’s just that this arrow must be removed, Mother Empress, you get Li Wu-yan to come to me, I need his help.

Shu Taifei hesitated, looking at Feng Lingxi, "Lingxi, can you do this alone"

She was fine on her own before, but now that she's pregnant, she's worried the strong smell of blood will be too much for her.

"This matter should not be publicized. My mother doesn't want too many people to know."

"A-Yan won't say it out loud."

Feng Lingxi, considering the female assassin's safety, decided to have her mother invite Li Wuyan. At least that way things would be more stable.

The Imperial Noble Consort ordered her servant to summon Li Wu Yan and looked at Feng Ling Xi with eyes full of worry.

"Mother, rest assured. With Ayan's help, I will definitely save her."

Feng Lingxi had already begun to treat her wounds, but smelling this bloody smell would be very uncomfortable and make her nauseous. She subconsciously covered her mouth and tried her best to hold it back. Shutai watched Xier like this, a little puzzled, but she didn't dare ask too much.

Xi'er also cares about children. If she talks about it, Xi'er might think she is urging her to have a child after hearing it.

Feng Lingxi bandaged the wound, Li Wuyan and Xiao Li both arrived. Smelling the blood in the air, Xiao Li quickly stepped forward and handed a candied fruit to the princess, asking her to put it in her mouth. Feng Lingxi nodded to Xiao Li.

"This is just right. I told Li Wu-yan who had just arrived, 'Wu-yan, the arrow in her chest needs to be pulled out, and I can't do it alone.'"

"Doctor Li, thank you for your trouble."

Shu Taifei looked at Li Wuyan. Seeing that he didn't ask about the female assassin, but nodded instead, he said to Shu Taifei, "Shu Taifei, here is enough with me and the Princess. Xiao Li can help out, you wait over there."

Shutai's heart wasn't at ease. Feng Lingxi comforted her, "Mother Empress, too many people would be in the way. Yan's medical skills are better than mine, so don't worry."

Feng Lingxi assured her, and only then did Shu Taifei go out to wait. She looked at Feng Lingxi with comforting eyes and sighed softly, "Xier, do your best to save her life."

"Xi'er knows, Mother Concubine rest assured."

After Shu Taifei left, Feng Lingxi covered her mouth and went to the window, letting in some fresh air. She felt much better after changing the air a few times.

"My Queen, are you alright"

Li Wuyan glanced at Feng Lingxi's side and saw that she was uncomfortable, "Let Xiaoli help me, you rest here."

Feng Lingxi, after resting, returned to her bed. "I can do it, let's go together. We can't let her get into any trouble," she said, determined. She had promised her mother-concubine to keep her alive, and as long as she was there, they could still try to save her.

Li Wu Yan responded, "I've already taken care of everything. "Pulling out the arrow might cause significant bleeding, just take care of it."

"This one's mine."

This wasn't the first time she had encountered this kind of situation, so she was more confident.

Li Wuyan responded and watched Feng Lingxi's movements, helping her along the way.

The arrow was drawn, Feng Lingxi smelled the pungent metallic scent of blood. Her stomach churned uncomfortably again, but this time she endured it. Her face was grim. Li Wu Yan noticed her discomfort and quickly took the task from her hand, helping her down.

Feng Lingxi covered her chest and rested for a while. After helping out in the past, she had been tossed around for an hour before finally rescuing the female assassin.

"Your Highness, why don't you rest for a bit."

Xiao Li supported the pale-faced princess as she sat down, hurriedly helping her to catch her breath.

"What a big reaction from this child"

Feng Lingxi smoothed her breath, "We haven't left the city yet, he should listen to us."

Feng Lingxi stroked her abdomen. The timing of this child truly worried her. In this chaotic world, she feared she wouldn't be able to protect him. This was her second child, and this time, no matter what, she couldn't let anything happen to him.

"Let me take a look at your body."

Li Wuyan dealt with the female assassin, then gave Feng Lingxi a pulse check, "Take some prenatal medicine and pay extra attention during the first three months."

"I know, thank you, Ayame."

Li Wuyan cleaned the room and saw Feng Lingxi had calmed down. Only then did he go over and open the door. Shutai heard the door open and hurried over, "Xier, what's wrong"

Feng Lingxi rarely saw her mother so worried. This female assassin was unknown, yet she caused her mother such anxiety.

She's fine.

The Empress Dowager hurriedly walked to the bed and knelt down before her.

"Xier, this person is my mother's sister, your aunt."

"Aunt"

Feng Ling was shocked. The assassin's identity was beyond her expectations.

But, why don't they look alike at all

"Mother, why is my aunt dressed like that and appearing here"

Shutai looked at Li Wuyan who was also present, hesitated for a moment. Li Wuyan spoke first, "I'll go back first."

"It's alright, you saved her life. Since Xi'er trusts you, this Empress also trusts you."

Li Wuyan remained silent, listening quietly from the side.

"Today's emperor's tyranny has caused great chaos throughout the land. Those feudal lords have risen up in arms, and talented people from all over the country are also joining the rebellion. The situation is in complete turmoil now. Your aunt entered the capital this time with the intention of assassinating the tyrant."

Shutai's words left Feng Lingxi utterly shocked. Assassinate the tyrant

This is too bold, isn't it

"Your mother told you, she wasn't a lady from the boudoir, but a person from the Jianghu. Your aunt is the same; she has a forthright personality and likes to stand up for what's right. It's just that this time, her attempt to assassinate the Emperor was unsuccessful."

“Mother Empress, this sort of thing shouldn’t be handled by your aunt. Palace matters cannot be solved by mere assassination.”

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli, "First go and change your aunt's clothes, clean the room, and also let Fourteen and Fifteen increase their vigilance, keep an eye on the palace, and notify us immediately if there is any situation."

"Yes."ghness, Prince of Su, is there something you need from me"Dugu Su nodded, looking around. Feng Lingxi smiled and said, “Rest assured, my Fourth Prince’s Mansion is very safe. Xiao Li has been with me...
