Chapter 502: Revenge 146
e antidote for Your Majesty."When Empress Cen heard this, she was slightly surprised. It seemed that she knew a lot about the emperor's poison and suspected a connection to her. However, she was far a...Du Gu Cheng heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, looking at Feng Yu Xi's eyes which held a calculating glint, he asked in confusion, "What do you mean by that, Your Majesty"
"Half of the military power in the Yuan Dynasty was held by the Four Kings. Why is the Emperor still the Emperor, while you are just a King, now even reduced to a prisoner Didn't the Four Kings ever consider seizing power and replacing him"
Feng Yu Xi approached Du Gu Cheng, her tone laced with provocation. She refused to believe that this man was truly unmoved by power and status.
Dugu City let out a cold snort, "Your Majesty is trying to probe whether this King has the intention of treason, deliberately provoking this King, making this King rebel, so as to convict this King. This move is truly ruthless."
Seeing him like this in the rain and dusk, he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.
"I wouldn't have thought that the Fourth Prince would be so suspicious. If this palace truly wanted to sow discord, why would I waste my breath on these useless words Speaking these words, this palace is risking a capital offense. Doesn't the Fourth Prince see that This palace is speaking sincerely and reminding the Fourth Prince, with your abilities, there is no need for you to humble yourself as a prince."
"If I were interested in the throne, I would have taken it long ago. Your Majesty should just give up. You want me to turn against my own brother Your calculations are wrong, Your Majesty. I would never do such a thing, nor would I disappoint our father."
He just wouldn't listen to reason, even in the face of wind and rain. He almost made me so angry I could spit blood! How can someone be so stubborn
"Fourth King, you are now a prisoner. Must you still submit to the late Emperor's promise Do you know that the Emperor intends to harm you If you refuse to cooperate with me, you have only one path: death."
Dugu Cheng listened to Feng Yu Xi's tone, which was filled with anger as if she wished iron could be turned into steel. Facing the anger in her eyes, he couldn't help but sneer and question, "How this king chooses is this king's business. Empress Dowager, you want this king to agree so badly. This king is curious, is the Empress Dowager unhappy with the Emperor, or does she want to bring him down, waiting for an opportunity"
Fei Yu Xi was being scolded, her face turning red and white. If it weren't for the mission, she wouldn't have come here to waste her time talking to him.
This person is simply stubborn, even like this, they insist on what.
"How can you be so stubborn Even if you disregard your own safety, don't you care about Si Mei's well-being What would happen to Si Mei if you were gone You can't be so selfish, you need to think of her."
"Xier will understand me, Your Majesty. Please don't speak of this again, I won't agree."
After Du Gucheng finished speaking, he sat cross-legged and began meditating, ignoring the wind and rain.
Seeing her so anxious, she must be in a panic right now. But, that's good too, only when she's worried can he know her true intentions.
It's alright if you don't agree. This palace will talk to the fourth sister. If the emperor brings the fourth sister into the palace later, then this palace will see how you handle it. You won't even have time to regret it.
Feng Yu Xi Qi angrily said, turned to the prison gate, looking at the still unmoved Dugu City, annoyed to the extreme, how is this so difficult
It's all that damn Feng Linglong's fault, she scared him half to death. Now he wants to trick him into the scheme, but this method doesn't work anymore.
"Aren't you worried about your little sister being taken into the palace by the Emperor"
Feng Yu Xi loudly questioned, Dugu Cheng didn't even raise an eyelid. Feng Yu Xi stood there for a while, Dugu Cheng didn't reply to her, she could only leave the cell.
Dugu Cheng slowly opened his eyes, watching Feng Yu Xi leave. His gaze swept across the surroundings before he closed his eyes again to meditate.
When Feng Yu Xi left the prison, she went straight to Prince Si's mansion. She wanted to see if Feng Ling Xi could also remain so calm and collected.
Feng Lingxi and Dugu Yu arrived at the palace gate, holding the Empress Dowager's token and entered the palace. They went to Shou'an Palace to greet the Empress Dowager. When Cen Taihou saw Feng Lingxi, her eyes flickered noticeably. Seeing Dugu Yu behind her, she looked at Feng Lingxi with a hint of recognition.
"I greet the Empress Dowager."
Du Gu Yu hurriedly bowed. This time entering the palace, although he had made preparations beforehand, when he was before the Empress Dowager, he remembered the incident of being driven out of the palace. The hidden resentment in his heart gradually rose, but it was concealed in his eyes, becoming even more composed.
Then Empress Cen glanced at Duke Gu Yu, her tone cold. "How did the Third Prince return"
"Your Majesty fell ill, so I came back to visit you."
Empress Dowager Cen swept her gaze across the room, her tone cold. "Third Prince, you are kindhearted, but Your Majesty is fine now, there's no need to worry."
"May Your Majesty enjoy abundant blessings from Heaven's grace, and I will also pray for Your Majesty's well-being."
Duke Guyu's words were all flattery, but Empress Cen listened quite enjoyably. Back then, she had driven him out of the palace, reducing the competition for the throne. Now that he was back, who knew if he had any ulterior motives
The former emperor favored both Dugu City and him. Now that he's back, if he sets his sights on the throne, don't blame her for being ruthless.
"The Third Prince is thoughtful, but this concubine doesn't understand. How did the Fourth Princess enter the palace with the Third Prince When did the relationship between the Third Prince and the Fourth Princess become so close"
Wind Lingxi saw Empress Dowager Cen say this, before she could explain, she heard Dugu Yu explain, “Empress Dowager, please don’t misunderstand. My minister and the Fourth Princess are just getting to know each other. My minister knows he is not qualified to enter the palace, so he asked the Fourth Princess to bring him in. I hope the Empress Dowager will forgive him and not blame the Fourth Princess.”
"Oh"
The Empress Dowager glanced at Feng Lingxi, her displeasure evident in her eyes. "I issued an imperial decree and couldn't even get the Fourth Princess to enter the palace. The Third Prince, however, is quite capable. He requested her, and here she comes with the Third Prince."
Wind Ling Xi heard this, her face fell.
"The Empress Dowager should know why I haven't entered the palace, and now that I am here, what is the reason"
Feng Lingxi's eyes were slightly cold, meeting Cen Taizi's icy gaze without flinching. Since she dared to enter the palace, she had never thought about what might happen, let alone, Cen Taizi's actions this time were nothing more than forcing her into the palace.
"Well now, Your Highness, are you here to give me a lesson"
Queen Cen looked at Feng Ling Xi's cold eyes and her face sank, “This Empress also wants to ask the Fourth Princess Consort, what is going on with the Fourth Prince”
"Shouldn't you be more clear about this than I am"
Their eyes met, sparks flying. Dugu Yu watched the conversation and attitude between Feng Lingxi and Cen Taizu. He admired Feng Lingxi even more. No wonder they said Feng Lingxi was extraordinary. This Yaozu Saint Lord indeed had some guts, daring to argue with Empress Dowager like this. She was the first he'd ever seen.
However, she was still too young. If an empress were this easy to manipulate, the Yuan Dynasty's throne wouldn't have ended up in her hands.
"I couldn't figure out what was going on between Dugu City and that Feng Linglong, all those scandalous affairs. You are his wife, shouldn't you know How can I possibly understand better than you"
