“Xi’er.” No one expected the sudden accident. Feng Lingxi covered her abdomen and looked at the figure disappearing into the crowd. She didn’t even see the person’s appearance clearly and was stabbed.
“Go back to home.”
Dugu Cheng quickly picked her up in the waist and flew toward the nearby clinic.
“Doctor.”
Feng Lingxi was already unconscious when she was sent to the clinic. Her abdomen was bleeding and dyed her clothes red. Dugu Cheng’s hands were covered in blood. He didn’t know what to do to protect Zhu Feng Lingxi, so he could only watch the doctor stop the bleeding and rescue Feng Lingxi.
“Prince, that person is gone.”
Ye Xi rushed back and did not chase anyone. Looking at the unconscious princess, her eyes fell on the prince’s bloody hands. “Prince, I think it’s important to hire the imperial physician first. It’s important to save the princess.”
Dugu Cheng heard the rescue of the princess, and his eyes were red. “Go and get the imperial physician for me.”
Ye Xi took the order to leave, and Dugu Cheng looked at the doctor with anxiety.
The clinic was soon protected by the guards on Dugu Chengfu. Everyone was coming and going on the street. Feng Lingxi’s assassination quickly spread to the palace and into the ears of Queen Mother Cen. Queen Mother Cen was angry and ordered the Imperial Guard to protect Feng Lingxi’s safety and sent all the imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital to the Fourth Prince’s Mansion to treat Feng Lingxi.
Feng Lingxi stopped bleeding in the clinic and escorted back to the Four Kings
The Four Kings’ Mansion was closed. Except for the Four Kings’ Mansion, everyone was forbidden to visit.
Feng Lingxi and Dugucheng did not attend the banquet for the tribute envoys. Everyone in the capital knew that the Fourth Princess was assassinated and their lives were hanging on the line. The imperial physicians who came out of the Fourth Princess shook their heads and sighed. The Fourth Princes’ Mansion was protected by the Imperial Guard sent by Queen Cen, and no one was allowed to enter and exit privately.
Dugu Chengyi took care of Feng Lingxi for three days and three nights. Feng Lingxi did not wake up. Instead, on the fourth night, Xiaoli brought a person to save Feng Lingxi. After the man appeared, Feng Lingxi woke up the next morning, and then left a letter to Feng Ling. As for what was written in the letter, no one except Feng Lingxi knew. No one in the palace saw the appearance of the man, but knew that the man was wearing a silver mask, slender fingers, about twenty years old, and had very little words.
After Feng Lingxi woke up, she looked at Dugucheng who was lying on her bed and napping, as if she had a very long dream. She reached out to touch Dugucheng’s chin covered with stubbornness. She couldn’t say a word with a sluggish throat, only the pain of the abdominal wound.
“Princess, you are awake.”
Xiaoli pushed the door and saw the scene in front of her. She walked forward excitedly and put down the basin in her hand. Dugucheng was awakened by Xiaoli’s voice. Seeing Feng Lingxi awake, she held her hand excitedly and stretched out tremblingly
The hand, the voice was difficult,”Xi’er, you’re awake.”
Feng Lingxi nodded and smiled slightly, trying to touch Dugucheng’s face. Dugucheng quickly grabbed her hand and pressed it on his face, his eyes moist.
Xiaoli’s eyes became wet when she saw them like this. In the past few days, the prince has been guarding the princess day and night, and it was considered as if she had waited until the princess woke up.
Feng Lingxi moved, coughed, and pulled the wound on her abdomen. Dugucheng hurriedly supported her, “Xi’er, how are you doing? Does it hurt?”
Feng Lingxi subconsciously stroked the injured abdomen. Dugucheng grabbed her hand, “The doctor said you should recover from the wound.”
Nodded, Feng Lingxi looked at Dugucheng’s tired handsome face, with a distressed look on her, and her eyes fell on Xiaoli, signaling her to her side.
