Chapter 1287: War Clouds Gather

Did he never believe her"I, Feng Ling, swear to heaven that the death of the previous emperor has nothing to do with me."Feng Ling Xi raised her hand and swore an oath, the determination in her eyes..."It's Mother's handwriting. This is the cure for the seven-day madness."

Although the note didn't have her mother's name written on it, Yao Wan Ying’s handwriting was both familiar to Feng Ling Xi and Dugu Cheng. On top of giving her ten packets of antidote, it also provided Feng Ling Xi with a prescription.

"Indeed, it is your mother-in-law's handwriting. But why doesn't she come out to see you"

Dugu City looked around, this was all his people. To be able to escape his eyes, the messenger's martial arts must be quite strong.

"How could mother possibly know the cure for the seven-day madness"

If one's own mother can't cure her own illness, could it be the person beside her

"Xier, do you think this could be fake"

獨孤城並不太瞭解這些草藥，但他能看出這些草藥與兮兒平時給他們的草藥很類似，這裡麵也有兮兒采摘的紫花地丁。

"The handwriting is my mother's, it should be right. And I have seen my mother before."

The credibility is still quite high, and now that there's no better solution, we can only try this remedy.

"After daybreak, have someone prepare the antidote immediately. I will first administer these ten packets of medicine to them and see how they react." Every life saved is a victory.

Dugu Cheng responded, and while it was still before dawn, he helped Feng Lingxi decoct medicine.

A figure in the shadows watched Feng Lingxi and Dugu City's busy figures, disappearing into the night.

Feng Lingxi had finished brewing the medicine by dawn. Dugu Cheng let Ye Xi return to fetch more herbs personally, and Feng Lingxi, together with him, gave the brewed medicine to ten people whose conditions were more serious, then began to wait.

"Xi'er, you haven't slept all night. Go to sleep for a while, I'll stay here and keep watch."

Dugu Cheng looked at Xi'er, whose face was pale and tired. His eyes were full of pity. She had lost a lot of weight these days. Because of this poison, she had hardly slept well.

"I'll sleep when I have results."

Within half an hour, she would know if the antidote worked for them.

獨孤城勸不了她，隻好陪著她一塊等。

For half an hour, Feng Lingxi watched the ten people after they had taken the medicine, meticulously recording their every change and detail.

Half an hour passed, and none of the ten people showed signs of madness. They were just listless, their eyes vacant, sitting there like deflated balloons, powerless and weak.

It seems the antidote is working; they haven't worsened.

According to Liu's previous attack times, they should have been going crazy and biting each other by now, but they aren't. This means the antidote is very effective.

Then you can go to sleep, Ye Xi fetch the medicine, I will have them boil it and give it to them. You go rest for a bit.

Feng Lingxi shook her head. "I'm not sleepy now, Acheng, come with me."

Feng Ling Xi pulled Dugu Cheng's hand, her address for him changed, calling out "A-Cheng" made Dugu Cheng feel lightheaded, he didn't get angry and followed Feng Ling Xi instead.

"I've memorized all the herbs for the antidote. There are a few of them right here in this pass. Let's gather them and make the medicine for them as soon as possible, so we don't waste any time."

Du Gu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's bright eyes, knowing she couldn't sleep now no matter what she said, so he followed suit.

"Sister, where are you going Wait for me."

Lu Nian ran after Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng as they left, not feeling at all that he was an annoying third wheel.

"Master Lu."

These days, I've gotten used to Lu Nian calling Duo-er. Dugu Cheng is still very polite to Lu Nian, after all, he is his brother-in-law.

"We're going to gather herbs, you should go back first, there's no need to follow us."

"I'll go too."

Lu Nian walked forward regardless of whether they agreed or not. Just as he managed to pull Feng Lingxi along, her hand suddenly slipped away. Dugu Cheng looked at Lu Nian gloomily. Even though Xi'er was his sister, it wasn't necessary for her to be this clingy, was it

"Come on, get them some medicine. Once they're better, we can leave."

Lu Nian's words piqued Feng Lingxi's curiosity, and she hurriedly chased after him.

"How do you know there's an antidote"

"I heard you talking, hurry up and gather the medicine, don't waste so much time, go to sleep after you're done."

Lu Nian started lecturing again, he knew Feng Lingxi hadn't slept last night.

Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng were collecting herbs, while Lu Nian was in the mountains stewing chicken soup for Feng Lingxi. Seeing Feng Lingxi working so hard, he felt very distressed. Although the villagers had chickens at home, Xi'er refused to eat them. He had no choice but to find a way to catch wild chickens.

Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng picked for a morning, it was considered not bad, there were quite a few harvests. There are many medicinal herbs on this mountain. After washing them clean, they can be boiled into medicine.

After finishing all of that, Feng Ling Xi was really too tired. She watched them finish their medicine and then fell asleep on the table.

Lu Nian brought in the simmered chicken soup and saw Feng Lingxi sleeping on the table. She hurried over and shouted, "Little sister, wake up and eat something."

Feng Lingxi murmured softly, then fell asleep again.

"It's really worrying."

I wonder when she'll start taking care of herself. In two days, her parents will arrive. Once she leaves, I'll definitely have her parents meet her. How could the eldest daughter of the Lu family be so worn out

Lu Nian carried Feng Lingxi to the bed and looked at the bowl of chicken soup before carrying it out and putting it away.

After taking the medicine, the patient's condition improved visibly. He no longer went mad and bit people. The day was optimistic overall. Feng Ling Xi slept for two hours but still woke up hungry. When she woke up, she heard laughter outside and couldn't help but show a look of relief in her eyes.

It seems the antidote has arrived, and it's taking effect.

Feng Lingxi came out of the camp already at noon, and the villagers were especially happy. There was killing and slaughtering chickens and sheep in the village, with laughter and chatter everywhere.

"What's so exciting"

"Your Majesty, the insane show no signs of madness. The villagers say they are all well and wish to celebrate, so a grand feast is being prepared for you."

Xiaoli smiled happily, she hadn't heard good news for a long time.

"Are things settled down"

Xiao Li nodded, "Dr. Li checked them all and they are all better now."

"Ah Yan is back"

Feng Lingxi heard Xiao Li say Li Wu Yu, she looked over, but did not see Li Wu Yan's figure. Instead, she saw Luoli with Dugu City.

Doctor Li came back this morning with Ye Xi. He brought the antidote. The chief said that he hadn't been able to close his eyes for the past two days, and after reviewing all the ancient books, he found the antidote and hurried over.

"It turns out he never gave up on these villagers."

A smile appeared on Feng Lingxi's face, she had worked so hard these past two days, and it was all worth it.

Doctor Li arrived and immediately prepared the antidote. Knowing that the Princess had given it to the villagers, he examined them one by one, confirming that the frenzy within them had subsided and their pulses were much more normal.

"Where are the others"

Xiao Li was delighted by the rare praise directed at Li Wu Yan. It was clear that Li Wu Yan had truly put in a lot of effort. Otherwise, the villagers wouldn't have been so accepting of him after only two days away.

He's asleep, everyone has finished their checks, and anyway we won't be eating this soon, so let him rest for a while and we'll call him when it's time to eat.ng Lingxi. This action made Feng Lingxi astonished, "This Dugu Yan didn't even come to look for me""Your Highness, would you like the Emperor to come find you"Xiao Li asked in a low voice, Feng Lingxi...
