Chapter 271: Seize Power 25
nts it, killing me won't get her the Purple Star.""Xier, your mother entrusted such an important thing to you. Besides giving it to me, have you ever given it to anyone else to keep""No, not even the...Wind Ling Xi looked at Huang Fu Qing Yun, her mind blank. She couldn't remember her own name or where she came from.
Huangfu Qingyun reached out and waved his hand in front of her face. Feng Lingxi came back to her senses and shook her head.
"Don't you really remember"
Feng Lingxi thought hard, but couldn't think of anything.
Huangfu Qingyun looked at Zhang Taiyi beside him. Zhang Taiyi hurriedly said, "Your Highness, this girl should be suffering from amnesia caused by a high fever. I confirm that her head was not injured."
"Take care of your health first."
Huangfu Qingyun looked at Feng Lingxi, took out the purple star and handed it to her, “Miss, this is something you were wearing. Have a look, do you remember anything about it”
Feng Lingxi took the necklace and looked at it, her eyes flashed a glimmer of light. She held Zi Xing tightly in her hand, a smile on her face that made Huangpu Qingyun curious. However, he found she was touching Zi Xing with great fondness, but there was no sign of remembering anything about it.
"Get some rest and take care of your voice. Let's talk again when you're feeling better."
Feng Lingxi glanced at him, reluctantly returning the purple star to him.
Huangfu Qingyun returned the Purple Star to her, "This is yours, please take it."
Feng Lingxi happily held Zi Xing in her hand and beamed at Huangfu Qingyun. Her smile made Huangfu Qingyun blush again. This girl seemed to particularly enjoy smiling, and when she did, it felt like sunshine, warming his heart.
"Rest well, young lady. I have business to attend to, but I'll come see you later."
Feng Lingxi nodded and watched him leave, holding the Zi Xing in her hand, loving it very much.
Huangfu Qingyun walked to the door, glanced at her, and looked at Zhang Taiyi beside him, "How long will it take her to recover"
"Your Highness, once the Prince's throat is healed, this young lady will be able to speak."
"Treat her well and don't delay her treatment."
"I obey your command." Zhang Taiyi wiped his cold sweat secretly. This prince was so attentive to this young lady, even if he had a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to neglect her. It's all the talk in the Prince's Mansion; everyone knows that the prince has taken a fancy to this girl.
Linxi County
Du Gu Cheng had been recuperating for several days, his body almost fully recovered. However, the assassination of Du Gu Xiu added a lot of trouble to him. After Galo Nation's army was repelled by Du Gu Cheng's army, they had returned to Galo Nation. Now, there was only the confrontation between Du Gu Xiu and him. Du Gu Xiu was assassinated and fell seriously ill, both sides were in a state of truce. But now, both sides were almost recovered, Du Gu Cheng wanted to go find Feng Ling Xi, but Du Gu Xiu kept obstructing him, preventing him from leaving.
It was because of this that Dugu Xiu and Dugu City's armies fought another battle. Dugu City, blinded by rage over Feng Lingxi, routed Dugu Xiu's army, pushing them back again and again. Had it not been for Ye Xi's intervention, I fear Dugu Xiu's entire army would have been wiped out.
Half a month after Feng Lingxi's fall from the cliff, things had come to an end. Dugu Cheng forced Dugu Xiu back to Linxi County, but his eyes were red with sorrow.
"Ye Xi, this king has decided to go to the Chao Xia Dynasty tomorrow to look for Xi'er's whereabouts. You and Xiao Li should come with me."
"My lord, Xiao Li has already left. Now that matters are settled, I shall accompany you to find the madam."
Dugu Cheng's expression turned cold. "When did Xiao Li leave, how would this king not know"
That day, she left as soon as she returned. She blamed herself for not protecting the princess well and couldn't bear to stay. The King had been different these days, how could he have noticed these things
Dugu Cheng's expression was gloomy, "Go prepare. This king will finish his business and then depart."
Ye Xi responded, "If this continues, the king's health will be compromised."
The Prince's Mansion
After several days of recuperation, Feng Lingxi's body was almost fully recovered and she could move around. However, her voice was still gone, which worried Huangfu Qingyun greatly. Zhang Taiyi had examined her several times but couldn't figure out the cause.
"Your Highness, her voice is almost better. In theory, she should be able to speak, but I don't know why she just won't."
Huangfu Qingyun watched Feng Lingxi looking at the fish by the pond ahead. She was smiling so happily, not a trace of worry on her face, just like a blank sheet of paper. She seemed to have forgotten everything that had happened before, unaware of her own name or past, and there wasn't even a hint of anxiety. This worried him.
"Could it be that something stimulated him, causing him to lose his voice"
Dr. Zhang shook his head, "It shouldn't be the case. I examined her body and found no signs of stimulation."
"That's strange, how could a perfectly healthy person lose their voice"
Dr. Zhang's forehead was beaded with sweat. He, too, wanted to know why.
"Please step back."
Doctor Zhang hurried to retire. Feng Lingxi played happily, and Queenie approached her, looking at her with joy. She said softly, "Your body is almost recovered. Don't overexert yourself. Go rest over there for a while."
Feng Ling Xi looked up, the smile on her face making it impossible for Huang Fu Qing Yun to speak harshly to her. Looking into her clear eyes, he thought back to that night when she had clutched his hand, filled with fear and anxiety. A pang of tenderness crossed his heart.
"Your Highness, the young lady wants to eat grapes."
The maidservant serving Feng Lingxi saw that she was staring at the grapes on the table and said, "Huangpu Qingyun looked at Feng Lingxi who was staring at the grapes on the table, her eyes like a hungry cat eyeing those grapes, pulled her over. "
"Sit down, I'll peel it for you."
Feng Lingxi shook her head at him and walked over to sit down, peeling grapes for herself. The skilled way she did it made Huangfu Qingyun's smile widen even further. He looked at her with doting eyes.
"Since you don't remember your name, I don't know what to call you. How about I give you a name"
Huangpu Qingyun's probing question, Feng Lingxi raised her eyes and smiled brightly at him, nodding slightly, then lowered her head to continue peeling grapes to eat.
Your eyes are clear and dust-free, your smile is as bright as the spring breeze in March, and your eyes seem to sparkle like stars. May I call you Qingfeng
Feng Lingxi shook her head,
disliking the name.
Huangfu Qingyun saw that she didn't like it, and hurriedly said, "Then what kind of name do you like"
Feng Lingxi thought for a moment, and wrote a month character on the table with her fingers.
"Do you like the moon"
Feng Lingxi shook her head, looking at Huangfu Qingyun. Suddenly, she felt a severe headache and covered her head in pain, clutching it and pounding it with her fists. Huangfu Qingyun was frightened and shouted, "Quickly summon Zhang Taiyi!"
"Mmm..."
Feng Lingxi painfully pounded her head, as if something was trying to tear through it and get inside. Her head felt like it would explode; the pain was unbearable.
"Ling...xi."
Feng Lingxi painfully uttered two words, the pain too much to bear, and fainted.
Huangfu Qingyun hurriedly picked her up and strode towards her bedroom, the Prince's Mansion once again in disarray.
"Ling... Xi."
Feng Lingxi's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and she kept calling out that name. Huangfu Qingyun anxiously looked at Zhang Taiyi who was checking on her, asking, "Zhang Taiyi, what's wrong with her"e you for a walk, okay"Wan'er looked into Dugu City's expectant eyes and reached out to embrace his neck."Xi'er, would you like to go together""I still have some things to do, I'll go down the mountai...
