Chapter 1518: Glassy Purple Star 57

was little. Your mother is the best person in the world."Wan'er looked at Xiaoli, her eyes lost in thought."What did I lie to you about Back when your mother was with me, we suffered a lot. I watched...Everyone gathered around, watching Feng Lingxi administer acupuncture to Dugu Cheng. Witnessing her skilled technique, they were even more convinced of her medical prowess. Zhang, the imperial physician, was intently observing Feng Lingxi's every move, occasionally letting out words of praise.

After the acupuncture treatment, Dugu City's breath gradually stabilized. Although his face was still pale, it was obviously much better than before.

"Take a break and you'll wake up."

Feng Ling Xi put away her tools, ignoring the gazes of those watching her, and stood up to walk aside.

"Your Majesty, do you have any good medicine for the King to eat He's like this now, it's affecting our journey."

Night Xi pleaded with her, "As long as the princess makes a move, the king's illness will surely recover."

"His body is certainly not up to traveling at the moment. Let him rest here and wait for the rain to stop, then we'll leave tomorrow."

Wind Ling finished speaking and glanced at the torrential rain outside, "Later, I'll go around to see if there are any medicinal herbs, and prepare some for him to take first."

"Your Highness, the Princess Consort, I have some medicinal herbs here that are for His Royal Highness's regular use. Whatever you need, just tell me," Zhang, the imperial physician, hurried forward and said. This Princess Consort's acupuncture skills were indeed rare. Watching her perform acupuncture, even he, an old doctor who had practiced medicine for decades, felt ashamed of himself.

"The medicine you gave him doesn't contain this one. After the rain stops, I'll look around for it. This herb is very effective at calming emotions."

Dr. Zhang's face was filled with shock as he gave Princess Chen a thumbs-up.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess, your medical skills are so remarkable, I am in awe. But, I wonder, what kind of medicine is it that has such miraculous effects"

A rare herb, my master told me, "Lotus with seven leaves."

"This..."

Dr. Zhang's expression stiffened slightly. He had never heard of this medicine before. It seemed that his medical skills were indeed inferior to the exquisite skills of the Princess Consort.

"Doctor Zhang, please first prepare medicine for Crown Prince Chen. Your prescriptions are fine, and besides, I have nothing to do with Crown Prince Chen anymore. I'm not the Crown Princess either. You should still call me Miss Feng Si."

"Miss Lu will also do."

Lu Nian hurried forward, Feng Lingxi glanced at him without refuting.

“Fourth Miss, I don't know if the Crown Prince’s illness can be cured. Since the Crown Prince fell ill, I have been treating him for five years, but his condition has only worsened. I have tried every medicine, but I am still helpless. I wonder if Fourth Miss has any good remedies”

He will get better.

Wind Lingxi glanced at Dugu City, "Don't worry."

"This subordinate bows to Miss Four."

Dr. Zhang let out a breath, and the tightness in his chest eased.

The Empress Dowager instructed him to take care of Prince Chen's health. If Prince Chen recovered, he would be indispensable. All this was due to Feng Lingxi, but she wouldn't take credit. All these achievements could be attributed to him.

Feng Lingxi stood outside the dilapidated temple, watching the drizzle outside, her thoughts drifting far away.

“Little Wind, this rain is so heavy, it probably won’t stop for a while. What kind of herbs are you looking for Tell me and I’ll help you gather them.” Tao Su stood beside her. He had seen everything that happened today. Little Wind was still worried about Dugu City, and she was afraid something might happen to him.

"Tao Su, you said that this time we go into Beijing, can we really find out who poisoned me back then"

"Xiao Feng, does your heart already have the answer You just haven't confirmed it yet"

Feng Lingxi turned her head to look at Tao Su, "It's not an answer, just a guess."

“Didn’t you say not to get too hung up and just check it out Also, stop interrupting people so often, otherwise, how will you know what they want to say.” Tao Su finished speaking and glanced at Dugu City behind her, “Since you still can’t let it go, then investigate thoroughly. That’s the kind of thing my Xiaofeng would do.”

"Tao Su, I just don't want to have anything more to do with him."

"Really"

Tao Su questioned, her gaze piercing Feng Lingxi's eyes, making Feng Lingxi avert her gaze, feeling her words utterly powerless.

Feng Lingxi took a deep breath, "There's no escaping this."

"Since you can't escape, then face it bravely. Don't you have me and your older brother behind you We are your strongest support, just keep moving forward, we will face it together."

Tao Su's encouragement touched Feng Ling Xi very much, she said thank you.

To be honest, you seem weighed down when you got here. You look like you're suffocating under pressure, not like the bright and cheerful person I first met. You were much more vibrant back then.

“This place carries too much weight, it’s suffocating. No one wants to live like this, they just have no choice.”

Tao Su shrugged and looked ahead.

“If everyone were to suppress themselves like you, wouldn't those burdened with hatred be able to live well I remember what I told you before, when my family was exterminated and I was wrongly accused, I suffered more than you. But I never gave up on finding an opportunity to clear my family’s name. In the end, I found you. You didn't help me clear my name and bring my family's case to light, washing away their injustice.”

Feng Lingxi, hearing Tao Su speak of these things, felt quite ashamed of herself. Indeed, she lacked his open-mindedness.

“Since you feel so oppressed, why not ask everything clearly, just as you said, since it was Dugu City who wronged you in the beginning, then you don't owe him anything. What he is going through now is all his own doing. If you believe what he says, then listen to his explanation seriously and make things clear. This way, whether you two separate or stay together, at least both of you won't feel so oppressed and struggling. You shouldn't forget that you still have children.”

Feng Lingxi trembled when she heard the child's voice.

They are also bound by three children, all of whom are still young. Because she and Dugu City separated, the three of them no longer have a happy family. Although she said it didn't matter that Dugu City and she broke up, in the end, she still cared about his every move.

"Do you understand now You've not only hurt yourself, but also your three children. There's nothing that can't be cleared up."

Tao Su's words made Feng Lingxi feel even more guilty. Thinking about Wan'er's maturity that didn't belong to her age, thinking about Siqi's desire to be with Dugu Cheng but also considering her feelings, and thinking about Siyu's taciturn appearance, Feng Lingxi fell silent.

"I've said everything I needed to say. Now that you're here, take this time to think things over properly."

Tao Su finished speaking, crossed her arms and stood at a distance leaning against something, closing her eyes to meditate, listening to the sound of rain outside, quietly accompanying Feng Ling Xi.

Everyone has a different way of repaying kindness. Tao Su felt that Xiaofeng wanted someone to help her open up and get past her emotional barriers. After all, the most important thing in life is to be happy. If you're not happy, every day for the rest of your life will feel like an eternity, it's too painful.
