Chapter 495: Revenge 139
Dugu City dismounted, and the figure following closely behind also disappeared into the crowd."Xier, after we finish our meal, don't go to the inn. We're being followed."Du Gucheng stood beside her, g..."Where are the others"
It’s not just her business to have a child, she still needs to discuss it with Dugu City. At least she has to make sure that both she and the child can be safe before making such plans.
"The prince went out, saying he was going to buy something for the princess."
Feng Lingxi raised her brow slightly, "Buy things for me Then why wouldn't you bring me along"
Xiao Li looked innocent. "I don't know, Your Highness didn't say anything. He only said to buy some things for the Crown Princess and he'd be back soon. He also asked me to tell the Crown Princess not to worry about him."
Feng Lingxi's pretty face flushed red, "Who wants him."
This Dugu City, she's really bored out of her mind, saying things like this. She just asked.
Little Li saw the princess blushing and smiled, "Princess, would you like to go look for the king Maybe you could even stroll the streets together. With winter approaching, the princess's wardrobe could use some additions. Yesterday, I heard that many young ladies in the capital have already started choosing their New Year's clothing. Why not take a look, princess"
Feng Lingxi shook her head, "You can figure out the clothes thing yourself later. I have a lot of things to do, and no time to go shopping."
On such a cold winter day, she had no energy to go shopping. It would be better for her to stay at the pharmacy and refine some more medicine.
Xiao Li saw that the Princess Consort was unhappy and didn't force her. Instead, she followed behind her and watched her go to the pharmacy. She hurried forward to help, thinking to herself, "When will this Princess Consort ever get over her fondness for alchemy"
For several days, Feng Lingxi was busy in the pharmacy. Dugu Cheng seemed to be busy for those few days as well and didn't often come to the pharmacy to find her. When asked, he said he had gone out. Dugu Yan's illness had been delayed, and she had already regained consciousness. All the major and minor affairs of the day were handed over to Dugu Xiu to handle. Even Empress Cen hadn't summoned Feng Lingxi into the palace for several days. Such a change made Feng Lingxi feel uneasy.
"Your Highness, the Empress has arrived."
That day, the weather was dreary with incessant rain and wind. Feng Lingxi had just gotten up when she heard Xiaoli's report. Hearing that Yu Xi came to look for her in this weather was truly unexpected. After all, it was unusual for someone to visit during such inclement conditions. Furthermore, it was even more surprising that Dugu Yan came looking for her after waking up.
"Just her"
Feng Lingxi put on her cloak, the cold wind outside blew in, Feng Lingxi instinctively hugged herself tighter, feeling a bit uncomfortable with this cold winter. It turned colder today, looking like it was about to snow, and it was freezing.
Xiao Li handed the brazier up, "She only brought two maidservants with her and is currently drinking tea in the front hall."
Feng Lingxi responded and went over. She saw Feng Yu Xi sitting in the front hall, sipping tea. Days hadn't passed yet, but Feng Yu Xi had lost weight. It seemed that when Dugu Yan was ill, she truly suffered.
When Feng Lingxi came, Feng Yu Xi stood up. Feng Lingxi went over to pay her respects, and looking at the tenderness in Feng Yu Xi's eyes, she had a strange feeling.
"Your Majesty has arrived. I wonder what your command is"
Feng Lingxi's voice was slightly cold, Feng Yuxi stepped forward and took her hand, gesturing for her to sit down.
"Fourth sister, I came to find you today to talk about General's Manor."
Wind Lingxi raised an eyebrow, looking at Feng Yu Xi's earnest eyes. "How did the Empress suddenly bring up General Residence What does this have to do with me"
"Fourth Sister, the General's Mansion is our true home after all. If our family isn't strong, where will we find support Don't you fear that one day, Fourth Prince might find a new love and leave you behind"
"If that day ever comes, I can only say I deserve it." Feng Lingxi interrupted her and called for Si Mei. When did their relationship become so good
Fēngyǔ xī měimó àndì, tànle kǒuqì, "Nǐ shì bù zài wànguò"
"I don't understand what Her Majesty means."
Feng Lingxi looked at her, "The affairs of the General's Mansion have nothing to do with me, and I don't want to concern myself with them. There's nothing to talk about."
"No matter how badly your father treats you, you are still his daughter. Don't you truly wish for General Manor to be trampled underfoot, leaving your father unable to hold his head high and us without a support system"
When the wind and rain questioned Feng Yu Xi, she wouldn't believe it. She truly could do nothing at all She was the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion after all.
"How come the Empress suddenly brought this up You say my father didn't even treat me like a daughter, and with the Empress as his daughter, what am I"
"Fourth Sister, these days you don't know what happened to me in the palace. To be honest with you, now the court's military power is in the hands of the Fourth Prince and Sixth Prince. Now the Emperor is poisoned and has no real power. If this continues, the throne will inevitably fall into the hands of the Sixth Prince..."
"So you want me to help you deal with the Sixth Prince, so you can keep your position as Empress"
Feng Lingxi sneered, meeting Feng Yu Xi's eyes. How could this person be so thick-skinned
In the face of wind and rain, I shake my head. “I’m not doing this for myself, but for the Great Yuan Dynasty’s prosperity. Don’t you hope that the throne falls into the hands of the Sixth Prince He’s cruel and ruthless. If he becomes emperor, he will certainly not spare the Fourth Prince.”
Feng Yu Xi's words in the twilight rain had made Feng Ling Xi thoroughly understand her intentions. She simply wanted to use Feng Ling Xi to secure her position as the successor. She claimed it was for the sake of General's Mansion, but it was all a pretext, merely a way to protect her own position from being shaken.
What matters of the General's Mansion would cause her to return, using Du Gucheng's military might to make the Sixth Prince wary of the General's Mansion, thus achieving the purpose of protecting her status as Empress On this stormy evening, I truly don't know where she gets the confidence that she will agree.
"I don't want to meddle in or take care of palace affairs. The General's Mansion no longer considers me one of their own, and to me, the General's Mansion is no longer my home. I won't agree to your request, Your Majesty Empress, please return."
Wind Ling's voice gradually turned cold, "If you want to protect your queen's position, don't look for me, I don't know you."
Feng Yu Xi looked at Feng Ling Xi, and suddenly knelt down in front of her. Such an action startled Feng Ling Xi, who couldn't believe what she was doing.
"Little Fourth Sister, please spare me! Just think of us sisters and help me, help General's Residence. We are blood relatives, surely you can’t bear to see the Sixth Prince seize the throne Think about the Emperor, he was once the man you loved most..."
"Your Majesty, please exercise some restraint!"
Feng Lingxi heard her last words, and her entire body was filled with rage. She glared at her coldly, "There has never been any impropriety between me and the Emperor. For you, Your Majesty, to slander my reputation to achieve your goals is excessive."
Wind and rain's face slightly changed, looking at Feng Lingxi's anger. Thinking of the emperor calling her name all night yesterday, she actually said it was okay.
This Feng Lingxi, she's really too ruthless.
"Simei, you must know that the Emperor has always loved you deeply. This palace has been married to him for so long, and he calls your name in his dreams every night. Don't you even have a shred of affection left for him"
