Chapter 1114 Ghost Saint Nation 75
r the truth, how could you have lived to this day Besides, didn't you also reveal the secrets of the Yao clan If I am to die, you should die even more."Feng Lingxi sneered, looking at Yao Feifei's flu...Dugu Cheng saw Xi'er staring at him, a serious expression on her face. "I can't sleep," she said.
Feng Lingxi gave him a withering look, then lowered her head and continued to look at the ledger.
"There's good news and bad news, which one would you like to hear"
Dugu Cheng spoke again, Feng Lingxi raised her eyes to look at him, Dugu Cheng hurriedly sat up, "I'm serious."
"I still have so much to see."
"Tomorrow, I'll tell you something serious. Come over."
Dugu Cheng shouted, looking at Feng Lingxi's unwilling expression, "I'm not doing anything to you, besides, I didn't take my medicine today, rest assured."
As soon as the words left her mouth, a knock came from the door. The sound of Shutai's voice followed.
"Cheng'er, open the door."
Wind Lingxi's eyes widened as she looked at Dugu City. Seeing Dugu City hurriedly get up and walk over to open the door, she saw Shutai standing in the doorway with a bowl of chicken soup in her hand. The smile on his face froze.
"Mother, why are you still here so late"
"Just now, grandma told me you were back. Xi'er didn't drink soup tonight. I was thinking that maybe she was tired of it, so I made chicken soup for you all. She's too thin and needs to make up for it, or how will she give me grandchildren."
Feng Ling Xi subconsciously looked at her waist. She had gained a whole circle! How could she possibly be losing weight
This Imperial Concubine treated her like a pig
"Thank you, mother for your kindness. I will take this in and we can drink it together with Xi'er."
"No way." Shutai walked in with a bowl of chicken soup. Feng Lingxi saw Shutai enter and quickly got up to greet her.
"Mother, I'll take care of it."
Feng Lingxi stepped forward to take the chicken soup and sniffed the medicinal herbs inside. She secretly grimaced.
"Mother, you've added medicine to this chicken soup again. What if I already have a child in my belly It's too much trouble and could easily lead to a miscarriage." Feng Lingxi forced a smile and said, she really wanted her mother's prescription, was this woman really Dugu City's biological mother
"Don't worry, back then when I ate the food from Huai Shang City, nothing happened."
"Mother Empress, aren't you suffering from amnesia How can you still remember this"
With one sentence from the Empress Dowager, Feng Lingxi suddenly caught the key point. The Empress Dowager looked at her, "Can you remember a little bit"
Of course.
Wind Lingxi chuckled, looking at Dugu City. This chicken soup was best left for him to handle; she truly had no appetite.
"Half for each of us, and when it's finished, I shall depart."
Shutai sat down, and Feng Lingxi hurriedly gave Dugucheng a wink. If he saw them drinking, she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight if she drank this!
"Mother concubine, we will drink the chicken soup. Otherwise, you should go back first..."
"Drink up and leave."
Shutai refused without hesitation, "As I said, she has to drink the medicine until she becomes pregnant, or I will never let you go."
Dugu Cheng resignedly served Feng Lingxi a bowl of congee. The two drank it down despite the bitterness, and only then did Shu Taifei leave.
"Mother Consort, do you want a grandson so badly"
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "You have to find a way, I can't take it anymore like this."
Her belly isn't reacting at all. She truly has no way out.
Dugu City wore a look of helplessness, "Otherwise, I'll find an excuse and lead troops to quell the bandits"
"It's the Lunar New Year now, what use is there in suppressing bandits"
Feng Ling was having a terrible headache. She held her ledger but couldn't focus on reading it at all.
"Otherwise, I could say that I'm returning to deal with Yao Clan affairs, using this as an excuse to go back"
"No, mother won't let you leave."
Feng Lingxi lay on the table, looking at Dugu Cheng with tears in her eyes.
"You need to figure out a way to stop Mother from fussing over me, I'm really going to become a big fat pig! Look at me, I've already gained weight, and she still says I'm thin. If this keeps up, my belly will be huge before I even get pregnant."
Dugu Cheng walked to Feng Lingxi's face and picked her up from the waist.
"You're saying I haven't been working hard enough, that the tonics aren't digesting properly"
"Dugu City, what nonsense are you talking about, uh..."
Spring indoors. Sunlight streamed in endlessly. Shutai, hiding at the doorway, nodded with satisfaction and left with her nursemaid.
"It is heard that these four Kings pamper their four Queens every night, neglecting even matters of the military camp."
Rumors spread from Linxi County to the capital, reaching the ears of Emperor Dugu Xiu.
Recently, his health hasn't been good. This Dugu Su and Dugu Yu are fighting fiercely again, but luckily, they are willing to share his worries.
Since his mother's passing, Dugu Xiu often dreamed of his mother and elder brother. They called to him, inviting him to join them. Every time, Dugu Xiu would wake up from the nightmare in terror.
"King Su, do you think I should summon the Fourth Prince back to the capital"
Dugu Su looked at Dugu Xiu's thin figure.
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince is stationed at the border. If we recall him, it might raise suspicions. I believe it's best not to summon him back to the capital. Instead, we should bestow upon him a title and allow him to continue serving Your Majesty at the border."
"I just miss him a little."
Dugu Xiu's health is deteriorating day by day. He has left the affairs of state to Dugu Su to handle. It seems that he will have to relinquish the throne soon.
"Your Majesty, the King of Su, my health is failing day by day. My mother owed you a debt, and when I am gone, this empire shall be yours."
Dugu Su hurriedly knelt down, "Your Majesty, please don't say that. Someone is bound to be able to cure Your Majesty's illness."
Dugu Xiu shook his head, "I know, I don't have much time left."
Dugu Su lowered her head, speechless. She didn't know how to start.
“My father owes the Fourth Prince a title. While I still draw breath, Su Wang, draft an imperial decree for me to bestow upon the Fourth Prince the title of 'King of Chen'. After my death, formally issue the decree. Have him stationed at the border, never to set foot in the capital again. As for the 500,000 troops, there's no need to worry about them; they won't be coming back anyway.”
"I obey your command."
Dugu Su knelt down and looked at Dugu Xiu's appearance that seemed to have aged thirty years, reminding him, "Your Majesty, it's late, you should rest early."
"I haven't finished speaking yet."
Du Gu Xiu raised his eyes, his gaze a little dazed.
"Fifth King, bestow the title 'Maple King' upon him. When he is found, take good care of him for me."
"Your humble servant obeys."
Du Gusu looked at Dugu Xiu's forlorn eyes, "Your Majesty, is there anything else you need me to draft an imperial decree for"
"Your Majesty, I know what he's thinking. However, I hope you can agree to me, no matter what wrong things the Prince has done, don't kill him, spare his life. I only realize now that if I hadn't had those ambitions back then and had simply assisted my elder brother peacefully, perhaps my brother wouldn't have died, my mother wouldn't have died either, and I wouldn't be in this predicament."
Du Gu Su was truly surprised to hear what Du Gu Xiu said.
Is this Dugu Xiu repenting for his life
"King Su, you must promise me, or else I will not be at ease."
Dugu Xiu looked at Dugu Su, his eyes full of pleading.
"Don't let them fight over the throne anymore. The emperor's empire is the same for anyone. You brothers should protect this hard-won legacy of our father together. As long as you unite, why not unify the world"
"Your Majesty, your servant will obey your command."
獨孤蘇 knelt down, "Your Majesty, I will immediately draft an imperial edict. Please rest assured."
"I'm reassured by your words. I'm tired, I need to go back and rest."ve-year-old child."Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng walked in. Feng Yixuan heard their words and hurriedly sat up, looking at them as they came in with an embarrassed expression."Sister Xi'er, brother-in-la...
