Chapter 542 Conspiracy 29
Even the Fourth Prince thinks that this Palace and Xi'er working together is good, so Xi'er has even less reason to refuse now."Feng Lingxi, watching Zhaoran County Princess's gaze fixed on Dugu City,..."Your subordinate bows to the Lord."
Dugu City raised his hand and looked at Ye Su's several horses, "Go to the nearby town and find a carriage."
It was so cold today, Xi'er hasn't been able to get a good rest these past two days. Xiao Li's condition prevents her from riding a horse, and Xi'er had just managed to treat her wounds properly when they reopened. Now she has to trouble Xi'er again.
Ye Su followed the sound and sent people to handle it. Dugu Cheng and Feng Lingxi rested on the spot. Someone helped cook and build a fire, so they didn't have to be so tired.
Feng Lingxi roasted by the fire, an hour later, a carriage arrived, along with a cloak and blanket. Feng Lingxi and Xiao Li sat in the carriage, while Dugu Cheng rode back to the capital. When Feng Lingxi got into the carriage, she couldn't hold on any longer, so she closed her eyes and slept through the bumps.
Xiao Li stayed by the princess's side, her face pale with pain. She was hurting so badly that she couldn't sleep at all.
It took only two hours for Feng Lingxi to return to the Wangfu from her trip. Du Gu Cheng carried her back to their room and let her sleep soundly until the next day. Xiao Li also had a doctor treat her wounds properly. After returning, Du Gu Cheng went to see Shu Tai Fei and explained the truth of what happened, taking care of the big and small matters in the household. All this, Feng Lingxi only learned about when she woke up the next day.
Feng Lingxi woke up and didn't see Dugu City. Upon inquiry, she learned that Dugu City had gone out. After returning yesterday, Shu Taifei came several times but was sent back by Dugu City, fearing it would disturb her rest.
Wind Ling Xi went straight to her mother's courtyard. As soon as she entered, she heard the voice of Feng Yu Xi. It was arrogant, as if she were the one who held the title of Shu Tai Fei instead.
Shutai, sitting on the side, listened to Feng Yuxi's harsh questioning. She didn't say a word from beginning to end, just listening as she denounced Feng Lingxi's faults.
Feng Lingxi couldn't stand it anymore, and walked towards Feng Yu Xi.
"I said that this early in the morning, why are the crows calling incessantly It turns out it's because Her Majesty the Queen has arrived."
"The Fourth Princess asked who was the crow"
When Feng Yu Xi saw Feng Ling Xi, she saw her standing unharmed before her and angrily reprimanded her.
Feng Lingxi looked around, then smiled slightly.
"The Empress feels whoever it is, then it is."
Feng Lingxi walked to Shutai's presence and respectfully called out, "Xi'er greets Mother Concubine."
Shutai looked at Feng Lingxi's thin body, her eyes full of pity.
These two days have been hard on her.
"Xier, the Empress Dowager came today to see your mother. Having heard that you have returned, she has sent for you to enter the palace."
The worry in Shutai's eyes made Feng Lingxi nod with a smile. This Empress Cen had called Feng Yu Xi to see her, which, plainly put, was to see if she was alive and well, to see how she was doing. Her summoning into the palace was nothing more than wanting to know if she was pregnant, wanting to get her Yao clan treasure as soon as possible.
Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yu Xi's cold and aloof expression, and smiled, saying, "Your Majesty the Empress, thank you."
Feng Yu Xi looked at Feng Ling Xi's face, letting out a cold snort. "Where have you been these days, making the emperor worry about you"
"Your Majesty, I don't want anything to happen. However, I think the number of people I have killed is too great, so..."
Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yuxi's eagerness in her eyes, and then said, "I think I should tell the Empress Dowager about this. I haven't seen her these days, and I really miss her."
Feng Yu Xi clenched her fists, looking at Feng Ling Xi's ostentatious appearance. She really wanted to tell her that the Empress treated her well, nothing more than because of Yao Clan's treasure. Otherwise, she thought Feng Ling Xi was who, and wanted the Empress to remember her
"Wind Ling, why did the Empress Dowager summon you You should know."
Wind Lingxi looked at the coldness in Feng Yu Xi's eyes and smiled, "Thank you for reminding me, Your Majesty. I understand very well. I will go to the palace to report to the Empress Dowager. Would Your Majesty like to return to the palace together"
Feng Yu Xi Leng snorted, flicked her sleeves and turned around, "Return to the palace."
Looking at her air of confidence, Feng Lingxi couldn't help but laugh. This Feng Yuxi really took herself seriously, just a messenger, like a errand runner. What was she so proud of
Feng Lingxi looked at Shu Taifei's worried eyes and patted her hand, "Mother concubine, I'll just go to the palace for a while, don't worry, nothing will happen."
Shutai looked at her, the worry between her brows made Feng Lingxi smile reassuringly. Then she followed Feng Yuxi into the palace.
"The Fourth Princess and I rode together."
As Feng Lingxi was about to get into the carriage, Feng Yuxi coldly ordered her. Feng Lingxi looked at the carriage beside her and got into Feng Yuxi's carriage. She knew that Feng Yuxi wouldn't let go of this opportunity. He wanted to be with her, and probably had something to say to her.
"Go on."
Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yuxi, "What does the Empress want to ask"
"Who caught you this time What's the purpose Why did this palace hear that you were kidnapped by the Third Prince after being taken What's going on"
Listening to Feng Yu Xi's string of questions, Feng Ling Xi was a little surprised. Why was she so concerned about her safety
"Your Majesty, to be honest with you, I still haven't figured out why the Third Prince kidnapped me. As for his motives, I have absolutely no clue."
Feng Lingxi shrugged, looking at the unconvinced glint in Feng Yu Xi's eyes. Her expression was innocent.
"The Three Kings have held you captive for so long, what happened between you and him..."
"The Empress wants to know if there's any collusion between me and the Third Prince"
Feng Lingxi interrupted her question. This woman's mouth spews nothing but venomous lies. Yu Xi wouldn't want to involve her with Duguo Yu, would she To slander her in front of Duguo Yan and ruin her reputation just to achieve her own goals
"This palace means, could the Third Prince request something from Fourth Princess Don't overthink it, this is Empress Dowager who asked this palace to ask."
Feng Lingxi feigned deep thought, raising an eyebrow before finally saying, “Your Majesty the Empress, I’ll speak to the Dowager Empress myself. You've already done enough by conveying the message. As for the rest, I will handle it with the Dowager Empress directly. Please don't worry yourself about it.”
Feng Yu Xi was so angry by her words, she felt like dying. What did she mean by "don't bother yourself" She didn't even ask for the answers she wanted, how could she let this go
"Feng Ling Xi, this palace asks you, does the Third Prince truly want to rebel"
Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow, looking at Feng Yu Xi's face. There was a chilling intent between her brows, and she suddenly smiled.
"Your Majesty, how would I know if the Third Prince has thoughts of rebellion You should ask him, what use am I"
Feng Lingxi spread her hands, feigning innocence. This Feng Yuxi seemed determined to extract information about Dugu Yu from her. If she were to say that Dugu Yu was plotting a rebellion, who knew what kind of trouble Feng Yuxi would cause Her words might be twisted beyond recognition.
"What I mean is, during your time at the Third Prince's residence, did he ever show any signs of rebellion Did he raise an army or try to win you and the Fourth Prince over"
Feng Lingxi heard Feng Yuxi's words, and the smile on her face deepened.
"This one, I truly don't know. Duke Gulü doesn't say anything, and his face doesn't write on it either. I really can't tell. Forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Feng Ling Xi, this palace knows you understand what this palace means. By keeping this a secret, you will only end up harming General's Residence."
