Chapter 866: Falling Frost Flower 56
aring at her. The wounds on his face, his pained expression, and the blood staining his lips all stung her eyes.Although I clearly stated that I have nothing to do with him anymore, I can't bear to se..."The authenticity of the antidote still needs to be determined, but do you know the purpose of Luo Juzhou's visit this time"
Dugu City put down the official document in his hand and looked at her, "Tell me more."
Feng Lingxi walked to his side and sat down, "The main purpose is to marry into your family."
Dugu City frowned, "You still haven't given up, hasn't this king made it clear enough"
Feng Lingxi smiled, "You actually believe that You really think she genuinely likes you and wants to marry you"
Dugu Cheng naturally knew it wasn't true, but Luo Juzhou's purpose took him by surprise. Crying that she had lost her innocence, she asked him to help break off the engagement. Now, she told Xi'er that she wanted to marry him.
"This marriage of Luo Juzhou to the Su Wangfu was inevitable; she had no choice."
"I know."
Feng Lingxi leaned against the table, looking at the official documents in front of Dugu Cheng, and asked, "Why does Luo Juzhou insist on marrying you"
"How would I know."
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's smile, and asked in a low voice, "Are you jealous, Xi'er"
“Of course. Right in front of her, this Queen said I wouldn't want her to marry you. To be polite to her, she wasn't polite in return. After losing her innocence, she wants to marry you! Think about it, this way, wouldn't she claim to the outside world that you did it At that time, even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she wouldn't be able to wash herself clean.”
Feng Lingxi's words, Dugu City naturally understood. He also had no intention of getting involved with Luo Juzhou.
And what else
What else
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng, "I asked you what Luo Juzhou's purpose was in marrying you, and you asked me, how would I know."
"This king doesn't know either, perhaps, we'll know soon enough."
Feng Lingxi nodded, "She doesn't have many days left. If she fails, marrying into the Su Wangfu, I'm afraid she will continue to cause trouble afterward." She had to find a way to eliminate the threat and prevent her from growing stronger, lest she be finished herself later on.
"By the way, I found something strange about Luo Juzhou. She seems particularly eager to get close to you and Mother Empress. Perhaps it's for this reason." Feng Lingxi looked at the poison on her wrist, "She just admitted that she poisoned me. When Mother Empress came to the courtyard, she wanted to rush over and hug her. I stopped her, and she got angry. I suspect she wants to poison Mother Empress again."
"He's a truly vicious person."
"In order to marry you, she truly revealed her true colors." Feng Lingxi's eyes narrowed. "I think she must be looking for what she wants on your body."
"What does she want from me"
"That's something you'll have to figure out yourself," Feng Lingxi shrugged. "I don't know either. Dealing with Luo Juzhou just now made me realize how intense the power struggles in this courtyard can be."
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's helpless expression and smiled, "This king's backyard only has you, I won't let you get tired."
"That's tiring too, isn't it There are still those who fawn over you. They all want to curry favor."
"None are to be left, not a single one."
A flash of killing intent appeared in Dugu City's eyes, Luo Juzhou could not be left alive.
Whoever dares to scheme against him and his mother concubine, regardless of her true intentions, she cannot be allowed to remain.
For several months, there has been no progress, but rather a worsening of the situation.
Feng Lingxi nodded in agreement. This Luo Juzhou indeed shouldn't be kept.
"Later, I'll go find Li Wuyan and see if the antidote is real. As for you, be careful when you go out. If you meet Luo Juzhou, stay away from her. This poison enters your body invisibly, so be cautious."
"This king knows, Xi'er will take extra care of herself. Later, I'll have Li Wu Yan check on you."
Feng Lingxi responded and left to find Li Wuyan.
The West Chamber
Li Wuyan's residence was nestled there, the entire courtyard filled with the scent of herbs, extremely pungent.
"Doctor Li, the princess consort has arrived."
Li Wuyan heard Xiaoli calling him, responded softly, and turned to look at Feng Lingxi coming over. He opened his mouth and said, "Fourth Princess."
"Where's the antidote"
Li Wuyan frowned, "We're not sure yet. I'll need you to cooperate with the diagnosis."
Feng Lingxi understood Li Wuyan's meaning. They didn't even know what kind of poison it was, so although the antidote formula had been found, they dared not confirm that it was the antidote for this poison.
Li Wuyan took the silver needle, Feng Lingxi extended her hand, and began to study it.
One hour later, Feng Lingxi received an imperial summons from the Empress Dowager, asking her to rush to Shou'an Palace immediately. Feng Lingxi looked at the eunuch who delivered the message and asked, "Eunuch, do you know why the Empress Dowager summoned me"
For days, the Empress had not summoned her, and there was no need for a meeting anyway.
"I only know that Lady Luo is in Shou'an Palace, crying very sadly. The Fourth Princess, please take care."
What about Luo Juzhou
Feng Lingxi furrowed her brows, it seemed that today's matter this Luo County Master was planning to make a big fuss out of it.
"Ayan, I'll go to the palace for a while. When Acheng returns, you tell him everything truthfully."
Li Wuyan cautioned, "Be careful."
Feng Lingxi brought Xiao Li into the palace. On the way, the eunuch reminded Feng Lingxi not to say that he had told her. Feng Lingxi gave him a silver ingot and thanked him.
Inside the Shou'an Palace
After Luo Juzhou finished weeping and recounting what Feng Lingxi had done to her, she looked utterly heartbroken. Ping Xi Wang stood beside her, his face grim with displeasure. Tai Hou Cen merely listened to Luo Juzhou's lament and summoned Feng Lingxi without expressing her opinion.
That's exactly why Luojü Zhou couldn't stop crying, making the Prince of Pingxi's face so unsightly.
“Your Majesty, this King knows that Miss Zhou can be willful and disobedient on a daily basis, but these four noble consorts cannot take advantage of her status and the favor of Prince Four to behave so wickedly. How can it be that in a few days, Miss Zhou will marry into the Su Wangfu, becoming sisters-in-law with her, yet she still poisons Miss Zhou”
As Empress Dowager Cen listened to the Prince of Pingxi's complaint, she only sipped tea in silence.
Such a situation made both Pingxi Wang and Luoju Zhou feel uneasy. They had always heard that the Empress Dowager was particularly fond of Feng Lingxi, but before this, the Empress Dowager also hated Feng Lingxi dearly. Now, she seemed anxious and restless.
"I know how you feel, but this matter is of great importance. I have had the Fourth Princess called here to confront her in person. If what Lady Luo says is true, I will certainly see justice done for her."
Luò Jū zhōu's face changed slightly. Fēng Língxī had come, could the Empress Dowager punish her
"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, the Four Princess Consorts have arrived."
Wind Lingxi entered Shou'an Palace and saw both Pingxi Wang and Luo Juzhou. She walked to the front of the Empress Dowager and paid her respects, "My concubine greets the Empress Dowager."
"The fourth princess is exempt from ceremony."
The Empress Dowager Cè was quite satisfied with Feng Lingxi's etiquette. She summoned her, and she knew that she, the Fourth Princess Consort of the Great Yuan Dynasty, had come to see her. As expected of her partner.
Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes swept over Luo Juzhou who was crying, her gaze full of disgust.
"Fourth Princess Consort, did Lord Lo of Luo County come to your residence today"
Feng Lingxi nodded and truthfully replied, "Just an hour ago, Luo County Princess just came out from the Fourth Prince's Manor."
"She told me, 'Did you poison her'"our location and attract unwanted attention."Chang Ming bowed his hands to the wind, "Understood.""Xiaofeng, are you on good terms with the Lu family"This single line, if it could attract the attentio...
