Chapter 761: Prison 21
ve, just don't know if Feng Yu Mo is still alive. After this time, can he see how Gu Li cares about him.If Little Li was willing to do this for him, he would be satisfied."Dispatch more men to search..."Your Majesty, what does this mean"
Feng Lingxi glanced at the two palace maids who were grabbing her arm. Their grip was clearly that of a trained fighter, it seemed they had come prepared.
Wind and Rain gazed at her with cold eyes, "You have the face to ask me what's wrong This Palace hasn't punished you yet. You dare be so bold, speaking nonsense in front of the Empress Dowager. It was left to the Empress Dowager to decide on bestowing upon you the title of Generalissimo."
Feng Lingxi couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this. It seemed they were truly desperate and resorting to any means necessary.
She said, how could she have made the Empress Dowager ill, this wind and rain tonight is planning to cover everything with one hand.
"What are you laughing at"
Wind and Rain looked at the smile on her face, hating himself for wanting to tear it off, but he held back.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing!"
獨孤雁's voice rang out, and the Imperial Guards behind her quickly stepped forward, encircling Feng Lingxi's palace. Mo Huilan hurried to Feng Lingxi's side, looking at the maidservant who was clutching Feng Lingxi's arm, and shouted angrily, "Let go of her."
Feng Yu Xi didn't expect Dugu Yan to arrive so quickly. Looking at Mo Huai Lan, the worry in her eyes made her nauseous. This Feng Ling Xi was actually quite close to Mo Huai Lan, defending her like this.
"I've come to confront the Fourth Princess regarding her bestowed title, Your Majesty. What brings you here"
"If the Emperor doesn't come, isn't the Empress planning to make a move against the Fourth Princess"
Mo Huai Lan saw that the palace maid wouldn't let go, she grabbed their hands, tightening her grip. The palace maid cried out in pain and released Feng Ling Xi, retreating to Feng Yu Xi's side, "Your Majesty Empress, Princess Lan..."
Mo Huilan raised her hand and slapped him twice, coldly snarling, "What's wrong with this concubine hitting you"
As the wind and rain saw the situation, he lashed out with a slap towards Mo Huilan. However, before it could even reach Mo Huilan's face, she grabbed his hand. Holding onto Feng Yu Xi's hand, Mo Huilan exerted a great deal of strength. Feng Yu Xi tried to break free, but couldn't.
"Your Majesty, I am merely following orders. Your Majesty quarreled with the Dowager Empress, and now the Dowager Empress is recuperating in her chambers. Does Your Majesty intend to make His Majesty even angrier"
“Come here, take the Empress back to the Fengyi Palace. Without my command, she is not allowed to step out of the Fengyi Palace even half a step.”
“Your Majesty, you can’t treat me this way. What have I done Everything I did was for your own good,” Feng Yu Xi cried urgently. Dugu Yan let out a cold snort, looking at Feng Yu Xi’s insincere expression, she said coldly, “Don’t force me to send you to the Cold Palace.”
Feng Yu Xi heard this, her eyes filled with unwillingness, yet she held it in.
After a long silence, Feng Yu Xi finally spoke, "Your Majesty, I still say the same thing. Don't lose the hearts of the people."
Dugu Yan did not look at her. Feng Yu Xi was forcibly taken away by the wind, and Feng Ling Xi retracted her gaze, walked in front of Dugu Yan, and bowed, "Your Majesty."
"Are you okay"
獨孤雁伸出手,卻又縮了回來,看著風淩兮對他保持距離的表情,沉聲說道:“朕剛剛得知皇後來了,便立刻帶人前來,朕答應四弟,要保護你的安全。”
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Feng Lingxi's thanks made Dugu Yan feel a little uncomfortable. In the current situation, that was all he could do.
Mo Huai Lan looked at their expressions and smiled, "Your Majesty, the Fourth Princess just got scared, she'll be fine soon. Let's go see the Empress Dowager."
Dugu Yan responded, saying to Feng Lingxi, “Rest well and don’t wander around.”
Feng Lingxi responded, wanting to follow along to see the Empress Dowager. But when she thought of Mo Huilan's gaze earlier, she felt it was better to keep a distance from Dugu Yan. Although she had no feelings for Dugu Yan, she was afraid that Mo Huilan might misunderstand. She didn't want another Feng Yu Xi situation to arise.
What she didn't understand was why, with such a good opportunity, they hadn't taken advantage of the wind and rain.
"Your Highness, are you alright"
Xiao Li immediately checked Feng Lingxi, Feng Lingxi looked at Xiao Li's nervous expression and shook her head, "It's okay."
"It's really strange, what's going on with the Emperor and Empress"
This back-and-forth, it really came just in time. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.
"Xiao Li, let's talk less."
Feng Lingxi instructed, “Since Feng Yu Xi hasn't been stripped of her power after the incident, it seems that Dugu Yan is wary of her influence. However, confining her will at least grant her a few days of peace. Once things regarding Feng Linglong are investigated, she can return to Si Wang Fu. Then, we can conduct a more thorough investigation.”
Greetings, from within the Palace of Longevity.
After the imperial physician's examination, Dugu Yan and Mo Huilan stood by Cen Taifu's bedside, but they didn't see Feng Lingxi. Cen Taifu was displeased.
Why doesn't she come to see me
"Mother, I had her stay in the inner palace. When the empress came looking for trouble, I offended her. I'm afraid these days will be filled with more chaos again. I promised Dugu City that I would protect her safety."
Then Empress Cen nodded knowingly, “Your Majesty, I’m so sorry to trouble you.”
"It is all my fault. I failed to handle this matter well, causing Mother Empress suffering."
Dugu Yan apologized, and as soon as the imperial edict was finished, Feng Yuxi started making trouble. This prevented the edict from being issued. Feng Yuxi confined her for several days to prevent her from causing further disturbances. With Feng Linglong's matter still unresolved, she couldn't release Feng Yuxi either.
"Your Majesty, now that the matter of Concubine Long has come to this, why not release Princess Four from the palace She would be much better off outside than here. Moreover, she could investigate Concubine Long's affairs and check the Empress' side."
Mo Huilan's reminder made Cen Taihou raise an eyebrow, "It's not that simple. With Long Gui Fei's matter, Feng Aotien and the Empress are relentless. As long as things aren't clear, the Fourth Princess can't return to Si Wangfu. She either stays here or gets locked up in prison until the investigation is complete."
Thinking of the emperor's attitude towards Feng Lingxi just now, Mo Huilan's heart was very uncomfortable. Before entering the palace, she had heard about the emperor and Feng Lingxi's past, and later she heard about the contradictions between them. But now seeing the emperor's attitude towards Feng Lingxi with her own eyes, Mo Huilan felt a sourness in her heart.
How could her man have another woman in his heart
"Lan Fei, everything should prioritize the greater good."
Dugu Yan patted Mo Huilan's shoulder, as if seeing through her mind. Mo Huilan, whose heart had been a bit sour before, felt much better after hearing this.
"Your Majesty, I understand."
Dugu Yan's eyes were gentle as she stroked her hair, "I know what you mean. I have no relationship with her. I only promised Dugu Cheng to protect her. You understand the current situation."
Mo Huilan was very surprised that Dugu Yan explained these things to her, but she was secretly delighted.
"Your servant understands, Your Majesty need not explain to your servant."
The Empress Dowager saw through Mo Huilan's intentions and was too lazy to explain. After all, this Lanfei was also the jewel in the palm of Pingbei King's hand, not a bad person at heart. Keeping her around was better than facing an unpredictable storm, especially since there was Pingbei King to help as well.
The court is in turmoil right now, it's best not to make things worse.
"Your Majesty, the Four Kings request an audience."
獨孤城風塵仆仆地走進殿內,俊逸的臉上滿是汗水。laying with Tian Xiaomi. All her worries vanished instantly."Sister Xier, you should stay for a while this time, so the children can get together properly. After we're apart, who knows when we'll meet...
