Chapter 544 Conspiracy 31
t die before her eyes, or else she'll have harmed Xi'er.Wiping the blood from her lips and bearing the pain in her chest, Feng Lingyu walked to Feng Linglong's face, looked at her, and knelt down with...Feng Lingxi hurriedly replied, "On the way back to the mansion with Dugu City, we were attacked by assassins in black. During our escape, we ran into a forest and were cornered at a waterfall. We had no choice but to jump into the lake to save ourselves."
"It's so cold today, if you jump into the lake, you won't be afraid of freezing to death."
Just thinking about that scene, Empress Cen felt a headache coming on. This woman's body is so precious. To jump into the lake in this cold winter, she must have injured herself. Who knows when she'll be able to conceive again
Feng Ling looked helplessly at the situation.
The Empress Dowager's lesson was that at the time, they had no choice. If they didn't jump into the lake, they would just die waiting. There was really no way out.
"Who were those people in black This empress had people sent to kill them for you."
The Empress Dowager was furious. Anyone who dared to oppose her would die. If Feng Lingxi couldn't become pregnant, how long would it take for the Yao clan's treasure to be hers
"It can be confirmed that this person is not from the Yao ethnic group. As for their identity, I am also unclear."
Feng Ling Xi's mind flashed with the face of Yu Xi as she spoke during that stormy evening. If she were to be added now, would Yu Xi's good days come to an end
This imperial harem, after all, is still under Empress Cen's control.
These commoners are truly audacious.
"Empress Dowager, the Empress spoke to me today about some things, I don't know if I should tell you."
Upon mentioning Feng Yu Xi, Consort Cen's face changed abruptly. "What else did she say to you"
"She was ordered to the mansion today, saying that Empress Dowager had summoned me to the palace. On the way back to the palace, she asked me if I thought the Third Prince had rebellious intentions." Feng Lingxi said while observing Empress Cen's expression changes. When she heard about the Empress Dowager's order, Empress Cen's eyes turned cold, and Feng Lingxi became suspicious.
It seems that Feng Yu Xi is truly bold and reckless, falsely claiming the Empress Dowager's decree.
"This empress has been spoiled by the Emperor beyond measure, daring to forge my imperial decree."
Then Empress Cen flew into a rage and commanded, "Bring the Empress here!"
She wanted to ask, when did she ask her to bring Feng Lingxi over
"Please wait, Empress Dowager."
Wind Ling stopped the Empress Dowager, “Since the Empress falsely transmitted the Empress Dowager's decree, why not pretend to be unaware and see what the Empress wants to do.”
"Do you mean to have me pretend I don't know"
When the wind caught her hair, she nodded, and a fiercer coldness appeared in Empress Cen's eyes.
The Empress Dowager thought, "When the Emperor later asked me, does the Third Princess have rebellious intentions And he wanted me to tell her that she did, so as to punish the Third Prince."
Feng Lingxi analyzed, "She knows the Empress Dowager dislikes the Third Prince's return to Beijing. Perhaps she wants to take this opportunity to completely eliminate him."
"What does this Dugu Yu have to do with her, and why would she want to get rid of Dugu Yu"
Feng Ling xi shook her head, meeting Cen Tai's deep gaze. This was also something she couldn't figure out. However, she vaguely felt that the person behind Feng Yu Xi had something to do with it, but who that person was, she couldn't guess.
"I'm aware of this matter and will have someone investigate it thoroughly. You've returned, so rest well. I await good news from you."
"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your concern. I will do my best."
Though so, Feng Lingxi knew that it was indeed not the right time to have a child. A child's presence would only make her life more difficult. She was still young, and Duguo City was also young. There was no need to rush into having a child this early.
"Empress Dowager, how is Concubine Long now Is the Emperor still kind to her"
Mentioning Feng Linglong, Feng Lingxi's cold intent swept over her. She would never forget that Feng Linglong, in order to return to Dugu Yan's side, slandered Dugu Cheng. Even if she claimed it was Yu Xi's idea, it couldn't change the fact that she had hurt Dugu Cheng.
"She's been quite obedient. Now that the Western Regions emissary is coming to pay tribute, I'm being stricter just in case. She understands her place."
Feng Lingxi nodded slightly, "Then it's settled. Let's wait until the Western Regions envoy leaves before talking."
A country cannot afford internal turmoil, or else these neighboring countries eyeing us hungrily could start a war at any time.
"By the way, on the eighth day of next month, I and the Emperor will host a banquet to entertain the envoys from Xiliang. You should also come at that time. Shutai has been summoned to the palace these days to make some preparations. We must not lose our decorum."
"Your Majesty, forgive my boldness, but since I was a child, I have damaged my brain. Even after recovering, I have never learned these etiquette rules. If I were to attend this feast, I fear I would lose face and bring shame upon Your Majesty..."
"This palace will send a nanny to the Fourth Prince's residence to teach you etiquette. You can prepare with peace of mind."
Wind whispers, the response echoes. Now Empress Cen's thoughts are entirely on this Western Regions envoy. This annual tribute envoy banquet, even if Empress Cen did not want to, she would not cause trouble at this crucial juncture, ruining the Great Yuan Dynasty's prestige.
"Your Majesty Empress Dowager, if there's nothing else, I shall return to the Fourth Prince's Residence first."
Feng Lingxi bowed gracefully, preparing to leave, when she saw Feng Aotian entering Shou'an Palace. Upon seeing Feng Lingxi, Feng Aotian's expression changed visibly. Behind him followed a young and handsome man.
"I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager."
Feng Aotien hurriedly pulled the young man behind him to bow to Empress Cen. The boy's eyes fell on Feng Lingxi, and when their eyes met, he hastily knelt down, his panic mixed with a hint of composure, bearing a resemblance to Feng Aotien himself.
"Rise, General of Wind."
The change in Empress Cen's attitude towards Feng Aotiān made Feng Lingxi frown, somewhat unclear about the empress's motives.
"Fourth Royal Consort, General Feng is here. You should greet him. These days you've been away, General Feng has come to see me several times and even requested to meet with you personally."
Feng Lingxi, upon hearing the words of Empress Dowager Cen, was a little surprised. Suddenly being so kind to her
This isn't like Feng Aotian at all.
"Thank you, General Feng, for your concern. I'm fine."
Feng Lingxi's coldness and aloofness made Feng Aotiān swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Instead, the young man beside him couldn't help but speak up, "Feng Lingxi, what do you mean by this Your father has been unable to eat or sleep well for you these past few days, how can you be so cold to him."
"Yi Hao, do not be disrespectful to the Fourth Princess."
Feng Aotian sneered, "Wind Lingxi only then realized that this young man was Feng Yixuan's brother, Feng Yihao. A year younger than Feng Yixuan, it seemed that Feng Yixuan had lost his use and now he brought his younger brother out."
Feng Yihao glared at Feng Lingxi with discontent. Ever since he learned about what she had done to his older brother and sister, Feng Yihao's attitude toward Feng Lingxi had become extremely repulsive. Everything was written on his face; he wanted nothing more than to settle the score with her and get his fifth brother's foot back.
"So it's Feng Jia's Sixth Young Master, worthy of being a descendant of a military family, truly talented and handsome."
"Xier, don't tease Yihao, he's still a child."
Feng Lingxi, hearing this, was still a child. Suddenly, he thought of that saying, "Who isn't a child"
This year, hasn't she also grown up overnight like a child When they hurt her, why don't they say she's still a child
Being unloved is being unloved, no matter how much you do, it's all in vain and a waste of time.
