previously been known as foolish and simple. If she were to be capable of everything, it would definitely attract suspicion and she couldn't easily expose herself."This is what you said, don't blame m...Luo Xue's eyes were full of doubt, but she squeezed out a smile and said, "Sister, can you tell Father when he comes tomorrow that I want to see him"
"Of course, your own father, you can see him anytime."
Feng Lingxi's calmly generous answer made Luo Xue even more confused. She had a bad premonition, something was wrong with her father.
The only problem is, no matter how much trouble Dugu City causes, his father being the emperor's advisor means he wouldn't dare lay a finger on him.
"Then the younger sister should go back first and not disturb her elder sister and the prince discussing important matters."
Feng Ling xi nodded, watching Luo Xue leave. The smile on her face disappeared, and her eyes turned cold. "Follow her."
Xiao Li immediately responded and went out with Ye Xi.
"Is Xier certain that she will return to Luofu"
She had already begun to suspect something, and would certainly return to the Luo Mansion to investigate. If the Luo Mansion passed muster, she wouldn't bring up her father's matter tomorrow.
"I'll be going to the military camp to arrange some matters. You stay at home."
Feng Ling responded, and Dugu City went to make arrangements. She instructed the Yao Clan to seal this matter, ensuring not a single drop leaks. How could Empress Cen possibly know that they had already replaced Luo Zhe
As Ruifeng had guessed, Luoxue didn't stay long after returning home. She found an excuse to leave the house and snuck off to Luofu for a visit. However, she came back very quickly. Ye Xi and Xiaoli watched her but didn't notice anything unusual, so they followed her back to the county government office.
Cen Taizi's side did not receive a reply from Dugu City. Several messages were sent to Luo Zhe, asking him to inquire, but there was no further news from Luo Zhe's side.
In just over ten days, all traces of Empress Dowager Cen Tai's eyeliner had been secretly removed from within Linxi County.
Du Gu Cheng's actions caused Empress Cen to be suspicious and she sent people to Linxi County to investigate.
Inside the Shou'an Palace, Empress Cen suddenly fainted. All the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau were waiting in the Shou'an Palace, taking Empress Cen's pulse. One by one, their faces turned grim as they carefully examined her several times before confirming.
"What's wrong with the Empress Dowager"
"Your Majesty, the Empress has been poisoned."
Dugu Xiu's face changed drastically, and the imperial physicians knelt down one after another. The atmosphere in the hall instantly turned gloomy, making it hard to breathe.
The imperial consort tugged at Dugu Xiu's sleeve and hurriedly asked, "The empress dowager was poisoned, so why don't you quickly find an antidote for her What are you all just standing there for"
"Yes."
The imperial physicians sprang into action. Dugu Xiu walked to the Empress Dowager's bedside and knelt down, looking at her pale, bloodless face, "How could Your Majesty be poisoned Wasn't her health getting better"
Dugu Xiu was worried about his body. When he was detoxified, Feng Lingxi said that only part of it had been cured. Recently, his mother and concubine had wanted to kill them. Could it be that Feng Lingxi had planned this beforehand
As soon as he thought of this, Dugu Xiu's heart was very uneasy. He didn't want to die yet. His throne had only been occupied for a short time, and there were three thousand beauties in the harem waiting for him to favor them. His empire was yet to achieve its dominance.
"Lady of the Moon, you said that Empress Dowager's poisoning was related to Feng Ling Xi. She once said that the Empress Dowager's poison wasn't fully cured. Could it be because the Empress Dowager wanted Yao Clan treasure from her again, so Feng Ling Xi poisoned her"
"Your Majesty, Feng Lingxi is thousands of miles away. How could she have the ability to poison the Empress Dowager Besides, the poison was treated by the imperial physicians. We posted notices searching for a divine doctor. Apart from Feng Lingxi, isn't there anyone else in this world capable of curing the Empress Dowager"
The Empress's words moved Duke Dugu deeply.
"Your Majesty, we can't let Feng Lingxi lead us by the nose every time. If this continues, the entire Great Yuan Dynasty will be under her control. If this gets out, how can we pacify the world, let alone achieve great ambitions"
Du Gu Xiu sighed, “My beloved is right. I truly was foolish. I almost let them lead me by the nose.”
獨孤修知道月妃說得有道理，隻是這風淩兮的醫術的確了不起，起死回生的醫術，怪不得他會害怕。
“I actually think the imperial physicians at Taichang Hospital aren’t bad. Let them put their efforts into researching this. When the imperial edict is posted, as long as they can cure the Empress Dowager’s poison, I'll make him a personal physician. With so many talented imperial physicians, it shouldn’t be difficult to find a divine doctor.”
"My dearest, you are right. I shall post the imperial edict immediately."
Dugu Xiu Yue listened more and more, finding reason in his words, so he hurriedly ordered someone to draft an imperial edict to be posted on the imperial notice board.
"Your Majesty, please don't let this news reach Xixian County. We must keep the fact that the Empress Dowager was poisoned a secret."
Dugu Xiu responded, "My beloved wife is truly my precious treasure. With you to help me strategize, I have nothing to worry about."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise."
The imperial concubine blushed, her eyes instinctively flitting to Empress Dowager Cen as she met Du Gu Xiu’s burning gaze. A fleeting spark of murderous intent flashed in her eyes, impossible to conceal.
Finally, the day has come. This time, even if you have supernatural abilities, don't even think about surviving.
The news of Empress Dowager Cen's poisoning quickly reached Su Wangfu. Looking at the letter in his hand, Dugu Su's eyes turned cold.
"This woman is really ruthless. It seems we don't need to take action."
"Your Highness, do you mean that the Empress Dowager cannot live"
Du Gu Su nodded, "Yue Fei said that Empress Cen was poisoned. This time, the Emperor agreed not to let Feng Lingxi enter the capital to help. Coupled with Empress Cen's previous decree requiring Du Gu Cheng to ask Feng Lingxi to hand over the Yao Clan treasure, Du Gu Cheng will certainly not help this time, so Empress Cen is definitely going to die this time."
This month, the concubine is truly ruthless.
Du Gu Su's eyes narrowed slightly, "Not only that, the people she sent to Feng Ling Xi's side are also about to have news."
This time, no one would have expected it, his Su royal wife becoming the Moon Imperial Consort, all thanks to his and Feng Yu Xi's plan.
"My lord, I just received news that Empress Dowager Cen was poisoned and fainted. The imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital are all helpless. This time, the Emperor did not issue an edict to summon the Fourth Princess into the capital, but instead posted a royal decree seeking medical treatment."
Night Xi reported, “Counting it up, today is already the eighth day.”
"Why don't we have any imperial edicts posted here"
Dugu Cheng frowned, "Your Majesty's meaning"
Ye Xi nodded, "My subordinate has inquired, it was the Moon Empress's intention. The imperial list is posted, we don't have one here."
“This month, Fei has really been a help to us.”
Dugu City narrowed his eyes, "It seems she wants to take this opportunity to kill Empress Cen. This time, her purpose is the same as ours."
"Then let's pretend we know nothing, and let her get rid of Empress Cen. That way, only Dugu Xiu will be left. I believe she will resolve it faster than us."
She was curious to see who the master behind this stormy and gloomy facade was, someone who could make her so devotedly loyal.
There's one more thing that needs to be investigated, namely the biological mother of Feng Yu Xi, Zhao shi. We've overlooked this woman, but I assure you, she knows every move Feng Yu Xi makes. Think about it carefully, Feng Yu Xi became Empress, able to bend and stretch, no matter how difficult you made things for her, she could always smooth things over and fulfill her duties. It's not that she doesn't fight back, it's that her mind is too deep.
Feng Lingxi had once suspected this Zhao clan, but she hadn't bothered to investigate further. Now that Dugu City mentioned it, she felt it was worth looking into thoroughly. Perhaps she could uncover the origins of this Zhao clan and, in turn, discover the identity of the mastermind behind Yu Xi's misfortune.xi opened her mouth, Ye Xi nodded, and said with a stiff smile, "How long the Princess Consort and the Prince have known each other is how long I've known the Princess Consort."Feng Ling Xi smiled fai...
