o inform Yao ZhiLuo Li and Feng Ling Xi walked side by side back to the Saintess Temple, looking at Feng Ling Xi's cold and piercing gaze, Luo Li frowned slightly. Since Feng Ling Xi returned to the..."You're not allowed to say things like 'I'll take the knife for you.'"

Feng Ling Xi took Dugu Cheng's hand, "You need to know, your life is more important than mine..."

"Xi'er, this king's life is yours. If you truly want this king to be well, then take good care of yourself. Never let something like this happen again." His voice trailed off, and Dugu Cheng looked into Feng Ling Xi's dimmed eyes with self-reproach. "What right does this king have to speak to you This king hasn't even been able to protect you by your side. How could he have the right to criticize you"

"Dugu City, this time it's not your fault."

Feng Ling Xi refused to let him speak like that. Looking at his remorseful expression, she truly felt sorry for him. "I don't even know how the person injured me when they hit me, how could you possibly know..."

“If I had paid more attention to the people around me, I might have caught her. But now, I don't even know who she is, let alone catch her.” Dugu Cheng’s self-deprecating tone was filled with anger. Xi’er wouldn’t understand his feelings at that time.

He failed to protect Xier, and he didn't even see the other person's appearance. He really was a failure.

"Don't you find this strange The mastermind behind Mother Concubine's kidnapping, you couldn't find any trace of them. Now the assassin who tried to kill me is also gone without a trace. This shows they had everything planned out in advance. Even if you turned the capital upside down, you wouldn't be able to find them."

Feng Lingxi's words calmed Dugucheng down. Indeed, these days no matter how he investigated, he found no clues at all, not a single lead. This had never happened before.

"Do you know who saved me"

Dugu Cheng looked up at Feng Lingxi. She took out a handkerchief and handed it to Dugu Cheng. Looking at the embroidered "卍" character on it, Dugu Cheng's eyes widened. Images of the person who brought him to Xiaoli flashed in his mind. He was wearing a blue robe, a mask covering his face, with cold eyes between his brows. He hardly spoke, and when he saw Dugu Cheng, he only glanced at him without even saying hello. He was incredibly aloof.

Such a person would have rescued Xi'er. If not for the circumstances at that time, he would surely have noticed her. Now that I think about it, that person must have been extraordinary.

The Yao people.

If I'm not mistaken, this person is not only from the Yao clan but also holds a high position of respect. Judging by what Xiao Li and I described, this person wears a mask to hide his face, probably because he doesn't want you to see his appearance. He speaks little and has cold eyes. It seems that saving me was not his intention, but rather a task entrusted to him, or perhaps, something he was forced to do.

Feng Lingxi watched as Dugu City calmed down, the worry in her eyes also disappeared. Because of her, Dugu City would lose his ability to judge, and she didn't want that. Dugu City shouldn't be like this.

His calmness and wisdom would vanish the moment they met, replaced by restlessness and a loss of judgment.

"Xier is right, this king is truly useless. I couldn't even notice this."

Dugu Cheng lowered his head. Feng Lingxi reached out and grabbed his hand, her voice soft, "Dugu Cheng, it's not that you're useless, it's that when you encounter something related to me, you lose your rationality. Remember, no matter what, only reason and calmness can allow you to maintain your previous wisdom, and only then can you protect me well."

Dugu Cheng raised his eyes and met Xi'er's earnest plea in her eyes, nodding slightly.

"Alright, this king agrees. I will analyze calmly."

"I promise you, I will work hard to protect myself in the future and prevent such things from happening."

Dugu Cheng nodded, looking at Feng Ling Xi's smile that appeared on her face. His heart clenched tighter, aching even more.

After the fall, his anxiety for Xi'er had driven him to the edge of madness. He knew he couldn't keep going like this; it would only make losing Xi'er more likely.

The winter days are very short. In the evening, a fine drizzle mixed with snowflakes falling all over the sky. Overnight, the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow again. It had been more than half a month since Feng Lingxi had been injured, and his injuries were recovering slowly, but fortunately, he could treat himself with medicine, so it wasn't anything serious.

During her recuperation, Feng Lingxi spent every day in bed rest. Without the hustle and bustle of the palace, life was much more leisurely. However, the various princes who came to visit were quite persistent. They either came to inquire about her injuries or ask about the divine physician. Feng Lingxi explained for a long time to no avail, so she simply said that he was her master. After the news spread, no one came to ask her again. However, Feng Yu Xi became interested and tried indirectly to persuade Feng Lingxi to allow the divine physician to enter the palace to see her.

As the year-end approaches, Feng Lingxi's injuries have also improved. The entire palace has started preparing for the New Year's goods. After Feng Lingxi recovered a little, she couldn't stay in her room. She wanted to go out, but Dugu City and Xiao Li kept an eye on her. Let alone going out of the mansion, even staying outside for a while would be sent back to rest by them.

It's so stuffy.

Looking out the window at the heavy snowfall, Feng Lingxi's eyes were full of helplessness. She lay on the table, her eyes vacant.

It has been more than a month since she was stabbed. Her wounds have healed, but she is still unable to go out. Du Gu Cheng said that the weather is bad and asked her to recuperate well. Even when she went to pay respects to her mother concubine, she was sent back. Afterward, Kong Shu Taifei came over herself and treated her like a daughter-in-law, which made Feng Ling Xi extremely depressed.

"Your Majesty, it's snowing outside. You should stay inside and be well, so that when the King returns, he won't say you ran about."

Feng Lingxi glanced at Xiao Li, "You tell me, when did I run around I'm just bored and want to go for a walk."

"The Queen is seriously ill, and the King has not yet caught the murderer, so naturally he does not dare to let you go out."

Feng Lingxi sighed, "It's been so long, and the murderer hasn't been found. Maybe they ran away a long time ago. If we can't catch this murderer in a year, will I be stuck inside for a whole year"

Xiao Li looked at the helplessness in the princess's eyes and didn't know how to answer. Both the king and she were doing this for her own good.

"Has there been any news from my mother's side"

Feng Ling xi's beautiful eyes swept over Xiao Li, seeing her lost in thought, she sat up straight, "Xiao Li, what's wrong"

Xiao Li regained her composure and hurriedly replied, "This servant is fine. What did the Princess just ask"

"Xiao Li, what's wrong Did you hear anything about my mother"

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli's strange face and felt something was wrong. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, "Is there any news from the Yao clan Tell me the truth."

"Your Highness, the servant hasn't received any news from the Yao Clan. Ever since Your Highness was attacked, the servant only asked them to help find someone to treat Your Highness. As for the Holy Master, the servant has not yet received any news."

"Was it you who called upon the Yao tribe to heal me"

Thinking of the handkerchief, she said, how could someone from the Yao clan come to save her It turned out that it was Xiao Li who had invited them. But why could the Yao clan send people, yet there was still no news of her mother
