can deal with Feng Yu Xi, that's all that matters. If I'm not mistaken, this assassination attempt wasn't meant to actually kill me, but rather a warning to stop treating Dugu Yan."Feng Ling Xi's eye...Feng Lingxi seeing he was still hesitating, continued, "Your Highness, don't forget, although the General's Mansion poses no real threat now, the ancestral Iron Scroll Decree is still there. It's better to be cautious."

"Fine, I'll listen to Xi'er and leave him alone for now."

Feng Lingxi saw that he had relaxed his lips, and she finally let out a breath of relief.

"This king will send you back to rest. After a day of turmoil, you must be tired too."

Feng Ling Xi and Du Gu Cheng walked in the garden, both with something on their minds. After a while, Feng Ling Xi spoke first, “Your Highness, there's no need to protect me like this. The more you protect me, the more it will harm you.”

Dugu City chuckled, "How come, are you afraid that this King will be good to you, making you moved and falling in love with this King"

Feng Lingxi glanced at him, "Feng Linglong marrying the Crown Prince as a concubine was not her intention. She wanted to be the Crown Princess. If she instigated the Crown Prince to oppose the Prince, I'm afraid it would implicate the Prince."

Dugu Cheng heard her mention the prince, thinking of the prince's attitude towards her, his handsome face darkened slightly, "Is Xi'er worried that this king is not as good as the prince"

"It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I don't want to crowd everything together, which wouldn't be good for you."

She is just an ordinary woman. Even if the Empress targets her, at most she will suffer some grievances. But he is different. If he is not careful, he will be doomed for life.

Although Dugu City wasn't the crown prince, she understood that with her illustrious military achievements, surpassing even the prince in glory, the prince, despite having nothing now, could be a threat if he ever ascended to power. Once their father passed away, Dugu City would surely face misfortune.

Du Gu Cheng heard her words, a smile once again appeared on his face, he reached out and took her hand, smiling and saying, "Rest assured, with someone like Xi'er caring for this King, this King will be more careful."

Feng Ling Xi responded in kind, not withdrawing her hand.

"About Dr. Zhang, I have already sent people to investigate, and also those who were following you. You just stay at home these days, and I will let you know if there is any news."

"Alright, I'll make preparations as well, so as not to embarrass the prince on the Empress's birthday."

Dugu Cheng smiled indulgently, "Xi'er is happy, that's all that matters. This king will take care of the arrangements for the empress's birthday."

"That…"

Dugu Cheng looked at her, wanting to speak but stopping. After a while, he said, "This King has something to attend to first, and will be back later."

Seeing Dugucheng leave, Feng Lingxi took out paper and pen from the table, wrote a letter, put it in an envelope, and put it away. Xiaoli came in and saw Feng Lingxi return, walking forward, "Your Highness, the King's Jade Dew Ointment."

"You got it."

Xiao Li looked at the princess's face and happily asked, "Princess, are you moved by the king's words I thought those words were very touching. I didn't expect that the king cared for the princess so deeply. It really makes me envious just watching."

Feng Lingxi faintly said, “He did put his heart into it.”

Little Li hurriedly asked, "Then Your Highness, are we still leaving"

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli, "In life, it is rare to meet someone who is good to oneself. Since he treats me sincerely, how can I ignore him."

Xiaoli was so excited, "Your Highness, you finally see things clearly, this servant is happy for the King."

"You little rascal, you're probably not willing to let go of Yexi, are you"

When it comes to Ye Xi, Xiao Li pouted in displeasure, “Your Highness is jesting. This servant wouldn't have been reluctant to leave him. This servant is here to serve Your Highness.”

Feng Lingxi smiled, looking at Xiaoli like this. With her mother gone, having Xiaoli by her side was pretty good.

"Xiao Li, these few days we won't go anywhere, just stay in the palace. When you get back, please go to the apothecary and buy some herbs for me. I need to make some pills."

Anyway, I'm free in the palace with nothing to do. I can refine some pills. According to his previous frequency of expeditions, Dugu City should be about to set out again after returning home for his wedding this time.

She made some pills for him to carry, in case he needed them.

"Your Highness, what use are all these pills you make every day"

"It is always best to be prepared."

Xiao Li tilted her chin and watched as the princess placed the pills into a box. So many pills, how long would she have to take them for

"My Queen, if the King went to war, would you follow him"

Feng Ling Xi looked up at Xiao Li, "Did you hear the news about him going on a campaign"

Xiao Li nodded, "I heard from Ye Xi that the king is about to go on a campaign. With this war starting, it's feared he will leave."

"I will not go on campaign with my family unless the Emperor issues a decree. "

It seems she'll need to prepare more pills for him to take. She also doesn't know how long this war will last.

"My lady, if you were to ask the King to take you, he would certainly be delighted and willing to accompany you."

He won't agree.

Even if she wanted to go, Dugu City wouldn't take her. He wouldn't let her go on an adventure.

Xiaoli looked at the princess, thinking about what Yexi had said to her, and closed her mouth.

For several days, Feng Lingxi didn't leave the mansion. She spent each day inside making pills, producing numerous boxes of them. Dugu Cheng couldn't find her anywhere. He finally discovered she was in the pharmacy, watching her make the pills, he just couldn't help himself anymore.

"Xier, you spend every day here toiling over these pills, making so many... what for"

"Just in case, these won't go bad in a short time."

"How long can it be saved for"

Dugu City took the pills and sniffed them. So many pills, if these could be taken to the battlefield, those wounded soldiers could take them much more conveniently than brewing medicine.

"About half a year to a year."

Dugu City's face was filled with surprise. "Able to last this long"

Feng Ling Xi responded with a nod. These were her specially made pills, if conditions permitted here, some could be preserved for over two years.

"Xier, if these pills could be taken to the battlefield for wounded soldiers, wouldn't that be wonderful."

On the battlefield, many soldiers died because they didn't receive timely treatment. If there were pills, perhaps so many people wouldn't have died.

Feng Ling Xi pushed the pills forward, "Take these with you. I'll make more when I have time. I don't know how many I can make, but I'll make as many as I can. Take them with you when you go to war."

"Xi'er, did you specially make this for this King"

"I didn't think about it that much when I was doing it. Since you said so, I'll just give you all of it."

Du Gu Cheng happily held her in his arms, "Xi'er, this king thanks you on behalf of the soldiers on the battlefield. With your pills, I believe many more will receive treatment and won't die."

Feng Lingxi, hearing his words, felt a pang of sympathy for him. "Didn't you often run out of medicine during wartime"

Dugu Cheng let her go and told her about the war.

"Supplies running short is a common occurrence. This king remembers once, we were ambushed by the enemy, many soldiers were injured. The medical supplies in camp were insufficient, even when those from nearby areas rushed over, it still wasn't enough. Over a thousand injured soldiers all died."at""Yi Xuan"Feng Aotian saw Feng Yixuan and excitedly stepped forward, grabbing his arm.Feng Yixuan looked at the man dressed as a general in front of him, his eyes full of confusion, and he said with...
