Chapter 280: Seizing Power 35

hink that you have no status in the Siwangfu.""Mother concubine, no need to trouble yourself so much. My daughter-in-law has only been back for a few days, there's no need for the King to accompany me..."Like medicine"

Huangfu Qingyun glanced at Feng Lingxi and asked Zhang Taiyi, "Zhang Taiyi, is Xier truly unharmed"

Zhang Taiyi checked again, "Reporting to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, judging by current observations, Miss Lin's body is indeed unharmed."

Huangfu Qingyun let out a sigh of relief, “Please trouble Dr. Zhang to help take care of Xi’er’s body.”

"I shall go and draft the prescription now."

Huangfu Qingyun looked at Xiaoli, "Get up."

Little Li stood up and stood before Huangfu Qingyun, trembling.

"This palace heard that when Xi'er fainted, you called her 'Your Highness'"

Xiaoli prostrated herself, hurriedly saying, "Your Highness, please forgive me. This servant has mistaken you for someone else. Miss looks a bit like my previous master, and this servant was confused. I know I've made a mistake, and I will never do it again."

"You said that Xi'er and your former master look alike"

Huangfu Qingyun narrowed his eyes, hearing Xiaoli's words, all his thoughts, could it be that this Xiaoli knows Xi'er

Xiao Li said, "Yes," tremblingly.

Where is the similarity

Xiao Li's heart pounded when she heard his question. If she told him, the Crown Prince wouldn't want her to be recognized by the Princess Consort and would drive her away. Then she wouldn't even have a chance to stay by the Princess Consort's side.

"Reporting back to His Royal Highness, he resembles you somewhat."

"Your Highness."

Feng Ling Xi woke up and saw Xiao Li kneeling on the ground, weakly calling out, "Huang Fu Qing Yun rushed to her side, “Xi’er, you’re awake”

It's not her fault, I fainted on my own. Don't blame her.

Huangfu Qingyun glanced at Xiaoli. Hearing Xi'er speak up for this maidservant, a feeling of displeasure arose in his heart, but he endured it nonetheless.

I didn't scold her, I just asked her a few questions.

Feng Lingxi glanced at Xiaoli. Seeing her still kneeling and struggling to get up, Huangfu Qingyun helped her sit down. She stared at Xiaoli and said, "Get up. Since Xi'er likes you to serve her, then you will follow her from now on and serve the young lady well."

"Thank you, Your Highness. I will take good care of the young lady."

Feng Ling beckoned to Xiao Li. Xiao Li glanced at Huang Fu Qingyun, seeing his displeasure, she felt a bit uneasy in her heart.

"Xiao Li, how are your injuries Are you feeling any better"

Xiaoli was taken aback, not expecting the princess to care about her. She hurriedly said, "Miss, I'm just some skin wounds, you don't have to worry."

"Well then, you are truly pitiful."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and rubbed her temples.

"Your Highness, my fainting has nothing to do with Xiao Li. Please don't blame her."

"I won't say anything about her, you can rest assured."

Seeing her defending this maidservant so fervently, Huangfu Qingyun thought of Xiaoli saying that Xi'er bore a resemblance to her former mistress. Thus, his curiosity grew even stronger: could it be that Xiaoli’s previous mistress and Xi’er were somehow related

Xi'er has lost her memory, and Xiao Li has also fallen into slavery. Perhaps there is a real connection between the two.

Feng Lingxi sat for a while, feeling better. Looking at Huangfu Qingyun beside her, she said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry to have worried you again."

Huangfu Qingyun's eyes were gentle, and he reached out to touch her head. The doting smile made Xiao Li watching on unconsciously clench her fists. Did the princess and this prince really have feelings for each other What would the king do

Huangpu Qingyun's gaze swept over Xiao Li, taking in her every look. Perhaps, to know about Xi'er's past, this Xiao Li was a breakthrough.

"Xier, don't be a stranger with me. That makes things feel awkward."

But I've fainted like this, you must have spent a lot of thought on me. I really feel sorry for you.

Looking at Feng Ling Xi's apologetic expression, Huang Pu Qing Yun’s smile widened, “Then you say, how do you want to repay me”

"Repay you"

Feng Ling Xi stared at Huang Fu Qing Yun's face, seeing him smile so happily, her eyes were lost.

"I saved you, fed you and gave you a place to live. Now tell me, how will you repay my kindness"

Feng Lingxi didn't quite understand why he suddenly asked this question. He instinctively looked at Xiao Li, seeing that she remained silent, he honestly shook his head.

I don't know.

Feng Lingxi's straightforwardness made Huangfu Qingyun feel much better. Because he found that the closer he and Feng Lingxi were, the more nervous Xiao Li's eyes became. Perhaps as he thought, Xiao Li recognized Xi'er, he had to start with Xiao Li.

"What about becoming my Crown Princess instead"

"No." Xiaoli blurted out. Huangfu Qingyun looked at her, "Why not"

Feng Lingxi also chimed in, "I think it's not okay either. I said I wouldn't make you a Crown Princess."

Xiaoli's eyes flickered, she stammered and didn't know how to explain. Looking at the princess, she said "no" before saying, "Your Highness, I think it's most important for Miss to recover her health now."

"Xiaoli, please go out first. I have something to tell the Crown Prince."

Feng Lingxi watched Huangpu Qingyun keep staring at Xiao Li and sent Xiao Li away.

Xiaoli glanced at Huangfu Qingyun and, seeing him nod, withdrew.

"Xi'er, aren't you being too kind to this little Li She's just a maidservant, after all"

Feng Lingxi stared at Xiaoli's departing figure, "I just feel sorry for her. Looking at her, I feel so happy inside, I don't want her to be sad, I want to keep her by my side. Your Highness, don't you like Xiaoli"

"No, I just think she seems to know you. When I spoke to you, she seemed a little unhappy."

"Meet me"

Feng Lingxi excitedly grabbed Huangpu Qingyun's arm, asking with excitement, "Your Highness, are you serious Does Xiao Li really recognize me Does she know who I am"

"You probably know."

Looking at her like this, filled with excitement, Huangpu Qingyun's heart felt a little uneasy. Was she trying to recall past events

He also hoped she would remember, but he was afraid that if she did, she wouldn't be the Xi'er he knew now. Yet if she didn't remember, he didn't know how to tell her about their engagement.

"How about I ask Xiao Li"

Feng Lingxi asked Huangfu Qingyun, seeing him nod, Feng Lingxi excitedly ran out. Huangfu Qingyun watched her leaving figure for a while before finally relaxing.

"Little Li."

Feng Lingxi ran out and shouted loudly. Xiao Li, who was standing at the door, saw the Princess call her and hurried forward, "Wang...Miss." She almost blurted it out again. The Crown Prince seemed to have noticed something, she couldn't act like before. She had to figure out the Crown Prince's feelings for the Princess first before saying anything. Then, she would find a chance to send a message to the Lord, asking them to come for her.

Feng Lingxi heard Xiao Li call her "Miss Wang," and she smiled, stepping forward to pull her hand up. "Xiao Li, I'm not Miss Wang, my name is Lin Xi."

"Lin Xi"

Xiao Li looked up at the smile on the Queen's face. Seeing her nod, she explained, “The Crown Prince said I called Lin Xi in my sleep, so he started calling me Lin Xi.”

"Miss, don't you remember anything about your past at all"fei really started fighting, it would definitely be Feng Lingxi who got hurt.Dugu Cheng grabbed her hand, "Don't be afraid, I'll stay with you, and won't let her hurt you."Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu C...
