Chapter 219: Palace Change 63
I am hosting a welcome feast for the Fourth Prince. All of you are welcome to join."The Emperor spoke, and all the officials took their seats. Feng Lingxi sat beside Dugu City, looking at the pastries..."Could it be that this king isn't as beautiful as she is"
"Huh" Feng Lingxi turned to look at Dugu Cheng who wouldn't let go of her hand. Looking at his resentful eyes, it was as if she had done something wrong to him, making her feel full of guilt.
Dugu Cheng tugged at her sleeve, "Xi'er, stay and keep me company."
"That, I have something to ask her."
This man, when he acts cute, is in no way inferior to a woman. Coupled with his handsome face, Feng Lingxi truly finds it hard to get used to.
"Dugu City, don't look at me like that, I'll be back soon."
Feng Ling Xi pulled away his hand, and Du Gu Cheng forcefully grabbed her, pulling her into his embrace. He held her waist tightly and said in an aggrieved tone, "Not good."
"Dugu City, you..." How could he act like a child Who could stand this
"Xier, since leaving the capital, haven't you accompanied this King at all"
Feng Lingxi turned her head and looked at him, "Are you sure" When had she ever accompanied him As a grown man, didn't he feel embarrassed saying something like that
"Xier, this king wants to..." Dugu City leaned down beside her ear, rubbing his breath against her earlobe, making her feel uncomfortable all over. She wanted to avoid him, but he held her tighter. This kind of contact made Feng Lingxi a little panicked and wanting to run away.
"Xier, can you"
Feng Ling's heart was pounding, she was just thinking of how to get away from him, when suddenly, Ye Xi's voice came from outside the tent, "Your Highness, I have something to report."
獨孤城的身子一僵,俊臉陰沉的能滴出水來,這夜希,就不能等到明天?
Come in.
Feng Ling hurriedly stood up, breaking free from Du Gucheng's embrace. Ye Xi entered and immediately sensed the awkward atmosphere. Seeing the King with a dark face, he glanced at the Queen, noticing her flushed cheeks. He forced a smile and asked, "Your Majesty, have I arrived at an inopportune time"
"What do you think"
He always ruins his own fun, can't he see it coming
Ye Xi was about to cry. He had no idea that after just dealing with the black-clothed men, the Prince would be so eager...
"Ye Xi, ignore him, what's wrong"
Feng Lingxi helped Ye Xi break the siege, and Ye Xi looked at the princess gratefully. He hurriedly said, "My subordinate just discovered this while searching myself. I specially brought it to show the king and the princess."
Ye Xi handed the token she retrieved from the black-cloaked man to Feng Lingxi. Looking at the characters on the token, Feng Lingxi's expression grew serious, and she hurriedly gave the token to Dugu Cheng, "It's this swastika symbol. Could this token belong to this sect"
"The Gate of the Swastika"
Dugu City stared at the token for a while, his handsome brows furrowed, "This king has been here for five years and has never heard of such a sect. Ye Xi, go check it out and see if this卍字門 exists in the countries near Huaxia."
"As you command."
Yèxī received the token and hurriedly retreated.
"Strange, I didn't find this token during the previous search. How did it appear after Ye Xi left"
Feng Lingxi looked at the doubt in Dugu Cheng's eyes, and walked to him. "You suspect Ye Xi"
Dugu Cheng raised his eyes to meet Feng Lingxi's surprised gaze, a smile curled up at the corner of his lips, and he pulled her down, "Of course not, he is my confidant, how could I suspect him I was just thinking, Ye Xi took the masked men down, among the soldiers who helped take them down, were there any accomplices from the masked men"
"Do you suspect that the men in black infiltrated the military camp"
Dugu Cheng nodded, "This is possible. It seems that during the time I was away, this camp has become corrupt."
"What are your plans next"
Seeing Xi'er's puzzled expression, Dugu City suddenly pushed her down and pressed her under him. He smirked at her panicked eyes, a triumphant look on his face, "Of course, I need to clean up."
Feng Lingxi was startled by his sudden movement. Looking into his calculating eyes, she felt a surge of annoyance.
"Open."
"No, Your Majesty hasn't in a long time…"
"Dugu City, are you tired of living Your wounds are bleeding, what's wrong with your head today You keep trying to push me over, get up!"
Feng Lingxi was angry. He had just bandaged her wound, but now it was red again because of him. It angered him to see how careless she was with her own body.
"Xier, this king is fine..."
Before he could finish his words, Feng Lingxi slapped him on the arm. Dugu Cheng cried out in pain, and Feng Lingxi took advantage of the situation to flip him over, pinning him beneath her. Her eyes narrowed warningly, "If you dare to act up again, I won't care about you."
"This King is merely slightly injured, ah…"
Feng Ling Xi roughly untied his clothes, pulling at his arm. Dugu Cheng cried out in pain, looking at her anger, he hurriedly said, "Xi'er, be gentle, this king hurts."
"Shut up, take off your clothes."
Feng Lingxi's voice carried a hint of anger. The soldiers who were about to enter the room stood at the doorway, listening to the conversation inside. Each one blushed as they looked at each other with curiosity.
"The soldiers say that you are kind to them. How come you are so rough with me"
Dugu Cheng's tone was sour, looking at her angry face, he felt a little wronged. It was rare to have the opportunity to cultivate their relationship, and she was still angry.
Feng Lingxi looked at his bleeding wound again and said angrily, "How do you want me to be gentle with you"
"Ouch..."
Dugu Cheng looked at Xi'er with a wronged expression. In front of her, he couldn't muster his usual domineering aura; all he could do was play the victim and seek sympathy.
"Xier, it hurts so much."
Feng Lingxi looked at him, her eyes seeming to accuse her as if she had done something terrible to him. Thinking about this, the scene of their first meeting flashed in her mind – she ignored his injuries and forcefully kissed him. Her ears burned with shame, Feng Lingxi averted her gaze, unwilling to meet his eyes.
"Knowing pain and still acting recklessly, you deserve it."
Dugu City looked at the blush on her cheeks, staring at her gently. Was she shy
"Xier, actually you have feelings for this King too. We can be like other couples, loving and caring for each other. In front of this King, you needn't be so restrained..."
Feng Lingxi bandaged herself up and looked at him with a glare, "Take good care of your wounds, don't spend all day thinking about these nonsensical things."
After finishing his words, he left with a parting remark.
"Your Majesty."
Wind Ling, just out of the tent, was startled by a group of soldiers standing at the door. Looking at their varied expressions, she felt like a guilty thief. "Are you looking for His Royal Highness"
"Your Highness, the Wangye is injured, please be careful."
The leading soldiers finished speaking, and the ones behind followed suit, nodding in agreement. Feng Lingxi was completely confused. She didn't understand what they meant by the King being injured, she just lightly pointed...
"That, it's not what you think, I..."
“Your Highness, the soldiers all understand that you are powerful and majestic. They have long heard of your prowess, Your Highness. You truly are a heroine among women, a perfect match for our King.”
Feng Lingxi, listening to their words, felt more and more uneasy. How did she feel that they seemed to misunderstand her
"Just now, I was just changing the medicine for the prince..."t had been bothering her, "Princess Consort, do you think the Duke will tell your parents about what happened today if he accompanies you back""He won't." Feng Lingxi's tone was firm, "He's not that f...
