Chapter 312: Seizing Power 67

She's just a woman with no experience in warfare, and there's no guarantee the soldiers of Linxi County will obey her orders. How can you be so sure that Xier can hold the fort Her father is a genera..."Fourth Royal Wife"

Feng Ling Xi looked at Du Gu Cheng who was right in front of her, blinking her eyes. Before she could react, Du Gu Cheng suddenly leaned forward and kissed her on the lips. Feng Ling Xi angrily wiped her mouth, "What did you do"

Dugu Cheng shrugged his shoulders, looking innocent.

"You forgot, you kissed me the moment we met at Yu Garden. Shouldn't you be responsible for me"

"That was an accident, you kissed me just now too."

Feng Lingxi vigorously wiped her mouth, as if she had been kissed by something dirty. Dugu Cheng smiled mischievously and pointed at his own lips, "Otherwise, how about I let you kiss me back"

"Damn it."

Feng Lingxi cursed, and rubbed even harder.

Dugu City looked at her with such a cute appearance, he really couldn't help but tease her a few more times. He really recovered his memory, where did Xi'er have this innocence and cuteness

The fish is done.

獨孤城將烤好的魚遞給她，“嚐嚐，很鮮。” Translate:Dugu Cheng handed her the grilled fish, "Try it, it's very fresh."

Ye Xi brought over the freshly killed mountain chicken, watching the king and his wife get along harmoniously, and smiling as she stepped forward, "Your Highness, Your Highness, the mountain chicken is here."

"Who is your princess" Feng Lingxi asked, cutting right to the chase. Ye Xi opened her mouth, only to hear the king speak, "Ye Xi, Xi'er and this king haven't married yet, don't scare her."

"......Ye Xi pointed at himself, his eyes wide. He scared the princess, they were clearly already married, and he still scared her! Wasn't the king too partial"

Dugu Cheng took over the chicken and gave Ye Xi a look. "You have nothing to do with this, just stay aside."

"My Lord..."

Ye Xi's dissatisfied complaint came out in a voice, and as she looked at the look Wang Ye cast her way, her eyes were full of resentment. At least they had fought side by side through life and death; this was how he drove her away

Feng Lingxi watched Ye Xi leave and hurriedly asked, "Dugu Cheng, Ye Xi is so good to you, why are you so harsh to him"

Dugu Cheng immediately asked, “What about me Haven't I been good to you From the moment we met, you've only ever allowed yourself to bully me. You haven't even said you'd marry me!”

Feng Ling Xi, parting ways with a smile that doesn't quite reach her eyes.

Dugu City saw that she didn't speak, so he lowered his head to roast chicken. He still had to be careful. Although Xi'er had a good impression of him now, it couldn't be ruined. Otherwise, she would dislike him. He had to cherish the time spent with Xi'er.

"Dugu City, tell me about my family. My mother is here, but what about my father Does he know I'm in trouble"

Speaking of this, Du Gucheng's expression changed slightly. Looking at Xi'er's eager eyes, how could he tell her that his father not only didn't look for her, but also joined forces with the Empress Dowager to try and kill her.

"Xier, after you recover your memories, you'll remember everything. I don't know how to tell you this, but what happened to you is too complex, too much. You forgot now, just consider it a break for yourself." He knew that one day when Xier recovered her memory, she wouldn't have to face only the present, but also so much more.

Feng Lingxi lowered her head and clenched her fingers, saying in a sullen tone, "I want to recover my memories, but I can't remember anything now. Xiao Li used to tell me that medicinal herbs would give me headaches, but now, I don't feel anything."

She was as if she had completely forgotten, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember.

Feng Lingxi's loneliness made Dugu Cheng feel heartache. He truly hoped that Xi'er could enjoy the simplicity of her amnesia, and didn't want her to know too much about the past. He didn't want her to be sad or troubled, or burdened with worry.

But he knew better, that Xi'er would eventually have to face this, sooner or later.

Let it be, when you're supposed to remember, you will.

Dugu Cheng handed her the roasted mountain chicken, "Eat up. Let's head back when you're full so your mother doesn't worry."

"Dugu City, can you accompany me to the clifftop I want to see where I fall."

Feng Lingxi looked up at the cliff face, rounding the path up would take a day, wouldn't it

"It's too far, a day trip back and forth wouldn't be enough. Xier, if you want to experience the feeling of falling off a cliff, I could take you for a spin."

Dugu Cheng pulled her up, Feng Lingxi hurriedly put the chicken leg aside and followed him toward the mountains ahead. Looking at the hills that weren't too high but not too low, Dugu Cheng led her up, pointing to the lake below, "Are you afraid Jump down"

Feng Lingxi looked down at the lake below and swallowed nervously, "Will I die if I jump in"

"The lake is not very deep. Jumping in is just like taking a bath. Besides, with me here, nothing will happen to you."

"I…"

Wind Ling Xi swallowed nervously, looking at the two-zhang height, a little afraid.

"Are you afraid of water"

Dugu City asked, Feng Lingxi nodded hurriedly, but in the next second she was dragged by Dugu City and jumped down. Feng Lingxi screamed in fright, hearing the whoosh of the wind and Dugu City's smug laughter in her ears. Fragments of images flashed through her mind, more and more, becoming clearer and clearer. With a plop, Feng Lingxi and Dugu City fell into the water and sank.

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's pale face and hurriedly hugged her waist. Seeing her open her mouth to speak, he hurriedly hugged her waist again and kissed her lips, helping her breathe. After a while, he let go of her and headed upstream.

Feng Lingxi stared at Dugu City, fragmented memories constantly flying into her mind. Her first meeting with Dugu City, being tricked into marriage by him, their daily interactions of wits and courage, and every little detail that happened to them all came back to her.

She is named Feng Lingxi, the wife of Dugu City, but she comes from the future.

As memories flooded in, Feng Lingxi couldn't bear the weight and fainted.

"Xi'er."

Dugu Cheng carried Feng Ling Xi from the water onto the shore and placed her on the grass, giving her artificial respiration. Ye Xi rushed over and, seeing the state of the princess, hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, are you insane The princess is terrified after falling off the cliff, and you actually dared to jump with her..."

"Xier is just waking up."

Du Gucheng pressed down, Feng Lingxi coughed a few times and didn't drink the water. She just fainted from the headache caused by recovering her memory.

"Xi'er, wake up."

Feng Lingxi coughed, her fingertips moved slightly but she didn't open her eyes. Dugu City wiped the water droplets from his forehead and lamented, "What nerve did this king get He shouldn't have acted impulsively."

"My Lord, didn't you say that the Lady was fine You shouldn't blame yourself, it won't help anything."

Ye Xi comforted, "Dugu Cheng glanced at Ye Xi, "Xi'er wants this king to take her to the cliff where she fell. This king will take her to the cliff on the surface of the lake, only two meters high. If she falls, she'll be in the lake. It's just that I didn't expect it to backfire."

"My lord, if the princess regains her memory and knows that you are willing to jump off a cliff with her, she would definitely be touched."

If she knew that I dragged her off the cliff, I'm afraid even getting on the bed would be difficult.

"Dugu City, am I that terrifying"

Feng Ling Xi woke up and, hearing what Dugu City said to her, weakly asked.ally making her physically weak. Her recovery also depended on her own condition.獨孤城's cold eyes made Feng Lingxi hold his hand and softly say, "The poison my mother took is just a way to test my medi...
