Chapter 72: Fighting on the Bed 36

u there."Dugu Cheng was worried about Feng Ling Xi's health. Every time she treated a severely injured person, her body would be very exhausted. Her physique was too weak; in the future, he had to mak..."Feng Ling Xi, are you truly sure about this"

Seeing her like this, Dugu City was even angrier.

Feng Lingxi took off her coat and threw it on the ground, walking towards him. Her cold and sharp eyes made Dugucheng feel uneasy. It felt like she was going to force herself on him again.

"You are also my first man. Today, I let you force me once. After this, we'll be two strangers. Please, after we're done, give me the divorce papers so that from then on we can cut ties completely."

Du Gucheng pushed her away. "Don't even think about it. You think this kind of thing can be settled once and for all I tell you, when I marry you, you become my queen, and you won't ever get a divorce for the rest of your life."

"Then I'll be honest with you, this lifetime the prince won't get anywhere near my bed." Feng Ling Xi returned to her own bed and coldly warned, "If you're not afraid of being impotent for life, Your Highness can try. I still have plenty of this newly developed medicine."

“You…”

Dugu Cheng's face turned pale with anger. This woman, was she being this ruthless To render him impotent for life Was she trying to live as a widow forever

Feng Lingxi lay down, pulled the covers over herself, and refused to speak to him.

Dugu Cheng looked at the empty space beside him, angrily returned to the bed and lifted the quilt, sniffing the faint fragrance in the bedding. His eyes glanced at the woman on the bed frame, a smirk playing on his lips. He didn't believe it, he would live like this forever.

"Ma'am Liu, the Prince and Princess haven't gotten up yet. You should let me go in first to wake them. Then you can come in"

From outside the door, Xiao Li's voice could be heard. Feng Ling Xi suddenly opened her eyes and saw that Du Gu Cheng had also woken up on the ground. She hurriedly got up and put all the bedding on the floor back into the cabinet, then helped Du Gu Cheng onto the bed. As soon as they covered themselves with the quilt, they saw Liu Mama push open the door and enter.

"Grandma Liu, why are you here so early"

Feng Lingxi also got up, Liu Mama stepped forward and walked to their bedside. Her eyes swept over them fiercely, uncovering their blankets. Feng Lingxi exclaimed, and Liu Mama returned the blanket to them.

"Your Highness, Your Royal Highness, this old slave was only acting on orders. I hope you will forgive me."

After the inspection was complete, Grandma Liu finally explained the reason. Feng Lingxi's face turned stiff. Could this mean she would have to be inspected like this every day from now on

"Attendant, take all the extra bedding out of the room."

Two maids entered the room and in a few moments, they had checked it thoroughly. They moved all the bedding from the closet, leaving Feng Lingxi quite furious. This was clearly an attempt to prevent her and Dugu Cheng from sleeping separately.

Could it really be that she has to sleep with him every day

"Grandmother Liu, was this taking away the bedding also ordered by Your Highness"

"Lady Liu stepped forward, "Returning to Your Highness, it was indeed the Empress Dowager's intention."

獨孤城 glanced at Feng Lingxi, but the latter remained expressionless, which made him furious.

He's helping her right now, and she acts this way towards him So cold.

After Liu Mamá had the bedding removed, she smelled the medicinal scent in the room. "Master Wang, forgive an old servant for speaking out of turn, but how come there is such a strong smell of medicine in this room"

"Grandmother Liu, aren't you planning to throw out all the medicinal herbs in my house because of the concoctions I made"

Feng Lingxi forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart. Liu mama waved her hand, "Move all the medicinal herbs out of this room and brew the medicine inside. It's harmful to your health, Your Highness, please forgive me."

Feng Lingxi heard that she was really going to throw away her medicinal herbs, so she got up and walked in front of Liu Mama. "What Liu Mama said is right, keeping these herbs inside the house is indeed harmful to the body, but weeding must be done from the root. It's better for Liu Mama to throw away the source of my medicinal herbs together, so as not to harm the Wang Ye's body."

When Nanny Liu heard this, her face turned ashen. Looking at her with cold eyes, her old face fell, and she asked sternly, "Is the Princess accusing this old servant of being wrong to throw away the medicinal herbs This old servant acts under the orders of the Old Madam. I am in charge of managing matters in the prince's courtyard. I know what I can and cannot do."

"Well then, this matter concerning the prince's courtyard is none of my concern anymore. In that case, I shall return to General Manor and live with my mother. Xiao Li, pack your things, let's go!"

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and, carrying the box of freshly made medicine from inside the room, was about to leave.

"Grandma Liu glared at her, challenging her authority. "What do you mean, Your Highness Are you trying to return to your natal home"

Feng Lingxi turned around and looked at Liu Mama's posture of acting old, and said coldly, "Liu Mama, didn't you just say that this prince's courtyard is under your care Then what am I doing here"

"Your Highness, remember, you are also just a woman of this inner courtyard."

Grandmother Liu's warning made Feng Lingxi's eyes turn cold. As the esteemed princess, she wouldn't be controlled by a mere grandmother. It would be faster to just get divorced than deal with this.

“I have only heard of masters disciplining servants, but never the other way around. Perhaps I was foolish and uneducated before, unworthy of the Fourth Prince. Since this is the case, please trouble Mama Liu and Mother to tell her, and ask her to grant me a divorce decree. Find a woman worthy of the Prince for him. This position of the Fourth Princess Consort is not something I am qualified for.”

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, and without looking back, she left with Xiao Li.

"How dare she! I was sent here to discipline her, and she threatens me with a divorce decree What utter lack of manners!"

"Nanny Liu is satisfied now, isn't she This princess consort of mine was chosen by the Emperor himself. You say she lacks etiquette, but that means you're saying the Emperor has poor eyesight and chose an uncouth princess consort for me. Imagine if these words reached the Emperor's ears, what do you think he would think"

Dugu Cheng said softly, Liu Mama's face changed drastically, she hurriedly knelt down.

"Your Highness, please forgive the old slave. The old slave was tongue-tied and spoke wrongly. I beg Your Highness to spare me for the sake of Your Royal Consort."

"Mama Liu, this king kindly reminds you, this princess's character is different from other noble young ladies. When she says divorce papers, she isn't joking. Seize the opportunity while she hasn't gone far, chase after her and there might still be a chance to remedy the situation. If she truly returns to General's Mansion, things will escalate, and when Father Emperor inquires, remember, she is the daughter-in-law personally chosen by Father Emperor for this king. Mama Liu, you don't need me to remind you what happens next, do you"

When Dugu City finished speaking, Liu Mama was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. She hurriedly got up and said, "Your Highness, this old servant will go bring the Princess back right away."

Dugu Cheng waved his hand, and Liu Mama hurriedly chased after him with her maidservant.

"My Lord, why didn't you say that just now You had to wait until the Lady had left before speaking. Had you said it earlier, perhaps she would have thanked you for speaking up for her."

Yè Xī asked in confusion.

獨孤城嘴角含笑，想到風淩兮剛纔那一狠勁，眸中笑意更深，不愧是他敢強的女人，行事風格的確夠狠的，這女人，他看上了。

"Your Highness, what are you laughing at Could it be that you're thinking of divorcing the Crown Princess"

Dugu Cheng patted his head, "Stupid, how could I let her run away This Liu MaMa might be by the Empress Dowager's side, but she acts arrogant because of the Empress Dowager's favor. I wholeheartedly approve of this lesson for Xi'er, giving her a wake-up call to keep her in check. After all, when Xi'er takes charge, if her nature remains unchanged, she will be dealt with sooner or later."ndpa be able to see them"The old general, thinking of those children, was so excited he wished he could see them right now.Feng Lingxi thought for a moment, “What if Grandpa brings them all to the man...
