sh in her hand, turned to look at the two of them, and dismissed the maidservant."Mother, how did you get out of the palace"When Dugu Cheng saw his mother getting up, he quickly stepped forward to hel...Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi's panic in his eyes, her gaze fixed on him. She became more and more certain that her guess was true.

This Dugu City wasn't actually amnesia, if he was truly amnesiac, how could Ye Xi be so flustered.

"Your Majesty, could it be that the Wangye truly hasn't lost his memory" Ye Xi was truly about to reach his limit. Looking at the smile in the Queen's eyes, he felt a surge of panic within him right now, truly afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on any longer.

The King had said not to tell the Queen the truth, for if he did, the King wouldn't know what he would do to him.

Her gaze turned to Xiaoli for help. Originally, she was about to expose Ye Xi, but seeing Ye Xi's pleading eyes, the smile on her face instantly disappeared, replaced by panic and unease.

She had already been unkind to the queen by keeping this a secret.

This also requires cooperating with Ye Xi to deceive the princess. After the princess learns the truth, she will have a hard time swallowing it and will be left with nothing but trouble.

"Ye Xi, just say it, did the prince really not lose his memory"

Xiao Li looked at Ye Xi, with an extremely suggestive implication.

Since things have come to this, there's no point in holding on. The Princess will find out eventually anyway.

Ye Xi looked at Xiao Li, seeing her raise an eyebrow, motioning for him to speak.

Eyes met, sparks flew. Both held their own thoughts and convictions.

Feng Lingxi watched the two of them, a smile widening on her lips.

"It's him who doesn't allow you to say it, isn't it"

Ye Xi retracted her gaze and looked at the Princess, "Your Highness, this subordinate truly doesn't know."

"I was just asking, I guess he even hid it from you."

Feng Ling Xi's words made Ye Xi unable to raise her head. It seemed the princess really knew that the King had not lost his memory. This matter must be reported to the King immediately, otherwise, things would only get worse later.

Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi's calm eyes, and the smile on her lips widened.

"Ye Xi, you're not a kid anymore. Have you found any girl you like I have many Yao tribe girls here. Would you like me to arrange a marriage for you"

Ye Xi wouldn't dare to accept the marriage arranged by the princess. This princess was clearly trying to buy him off with her words.

He is the prince's man, how could he sell himself for a wife

"No need, I have no intention of marrying."

He wiped his brow discreetly and Feng Ling Xi smiled faintly.

"Well then, that's it."

Xiao Li watched Ye Xi's sudden sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile.

This night, Xi was still as always afraid of the Crown Princess, but this time, he showed his hand too much.

"Tell Dugu City that I know about his act of feigning amnesia. If he still wants to be the father of my daughter in the future, let him come find me."

This was her final gamble, she was betting on whether Dugu City was truly as she had guessed, pretending to have amnesia.

If he were really faking amnesia, would he come looking for Wan'er to explain the reason

Wind Ling was uneasy and worried.

Yexi responded and left dejectedly.

"My Lord, this is what the Princess said to me today. I'm puzzled, how did the Princess know that you had amnesia Did Crown Prince Huangfu tell her"

"You were tricked by Xi'er."

Dugu Cheng looked at Ye Xi, his eyes full of helplessness.

"Xi'er has been leading you on all along, it seems like the time apart really helped Xi'er grow." Ye Xi was still too young to see through Xi'er's schemes.

Conversely, Xiaoli knew his identity had never been exposed at all. It seems like it's no longer possible to hide it.

The next day, Dugu City and Ye Xi appeared at the Prince's Mansion. When Feng Lingxi saw Dugu City, a flash of shock crossed her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

Du Gu Cheng saw Feng Ling Xi's cold eyes, the rare fluster in her usually icy gaze. He was afraid, he had always thought she wouldn't notice. But in the end, you can't hide fire forever, she discovered it.

And discovered this so quickly.

Looking at her attitude now, she seemed angry. He didn't know how Xi'er would react to him after he admitted it.

The words on the tip of his tongue were swallowed, and he looked at Huangfu Qingyun, his eyes becoming complex.

"The Fourth King has arrived, please sit down."

Huangfu Qingyun spoke, seeing Feng Lingxi's displeasure, he knew what she was angry about. It's just that, it's hard for an impartial person to judge family affairs. This time, Xi'er probably wouldn't forgive Dugu City so easily. As the accomplice, himself naturally wouldn't fare any better.

Since we're all on the same boat, we should stick together.

Dugu Cheng nodded and sat down, watching Feng Lingxi's sharp eyes scrutinize him. The cold and arrogant gaze made him feel intimidated and regret coming to confess.

"Lord Si Wang, have you come today for a matter"

Huangfu Qingyun spoke, handing Dugu City a cup of water, her eyes fixed on him, "This palace heard that these past few days, the Fourth Prince has been quite busy. How come he has time to come to this palace today"

"Qingyun, how much longer do you want to play pretend with him"

Feng Lingxi looked at Huangfu Qingyun, "You really think I don't know, Dugu City never lost his memory."

"He didn't have amnesia"

Huangfu Qingyun looked at Dugu City and gave him a wink, don't admit this, or their efforts would be in vain.

Du Gu Cheng received Huang Pu Qing Yun's hint and asked in a low voice, "May I have a word with you privately"

Feng Lingxi heard Dugu Cheng's cold voice, her brow furrowed in confusion as she watched him stand up and walk towards the garden. Her eyes were full of surprise, could her guess be wrong

It's impossible, if he lost his memory, then what was the look in his eyes just now

"Dugu City."

Feng Lingxi shouted in a fierce voice, "How long are you going to pretend"

Dugu Cheng turned around, his cold eyes met hers. There was a suppressed anger hidden in that coldness, and towards Feng Lingxi's completely unfamiliar attitude, Feng Lingxi really felt like she couldn't tell what he was thinking anymore.

Is this truly amnesia, or is it all a facade

"My Lord, since you so desire to return to my side, I shall grant your wish."

Walking swiftly to Feng Lingxi's side, he reached out and encircled her waist, pulling her close so that her body pressed against his. His icy gaze fixed on her, "To return to this king's side, your personality is indeed quite unique."

Feng Lingxi angrily pushed him away, her heart filled with fury.

"Go away."

Perhaps she was wrong after all. Perhaps it was true that Du Gu Cheng had lost his memory, but this amnesia didn't seem to have any negative consequences for him. It was her who was daydreaming about Du Gu Cheng returning to her side and spoke those words just now.

Feng Lingxi closed her eyes, utterly exhausted.

Why would she need to verify There is no harm without verification.

Dugu Cheng looked at Xi'er's pain hidden in her eyes. At that moment, he really wanted to tell Xi'er that he hadn't lost his memory, but he didn't dare.

Huangfu Qingyun looked at the two of them like this, walked over and patted Dugu City's shoulder.

"Let's go."

Dugu Cheng followed Huangfu Qingyun away, and Feng Lingxi only then opened her eyes, as if a century had passed.

"Xiao Li, do you think I'm really stupid like this, guessing what he means by whether he remembers or not"eng Lingxi's eyes lit up instantly when Feng Aotian took the initiative to mention them, "You have news about them""Yes, after the Crown Prince handed over his military power, they all left together....
