Chapter 355: Seize Power 110

le as paper. She hurriedly stepped forward, "Ye Xi, let me.""Xiao Li, bring my medicine chest to the tent."Night Xi helped Dugu City onto the bed. Feng Ling Xi walked over to Dugu City and looked at t..."I'm afraid I'd have to ask the Emperor himself."

The Empress saw Feng Ling Xi's determined expression and agreed, explaining, "After all, the marriage between the Fourth Prince and Feng Ling Xi was arranged by the late Emperor. Princess Yao Hua has heard about it, right"

Feng Lingxi nodded, "Then the princess will wait for your good news. In short, this princess will not deign to be a concubine."

"This is nature."

The Empress saw her relax, and said to Feng Linglong, “Noble Consort Long, Princess Yaohua will stay here with me for a while. You should tell the Emperor what Princess Yaohua means.”

"I obey your command."

Wind Linglong got up and left. Yun Gui, seated there, couldn't say a word, only hearing that the Empress still wanted Yao Hua Princess to marry the Fourth Prince. She kept her silence.

"Noble Consort Yun, please return first. This palace has matters to discuss with Princess Yao Hua."

When Empress Yun Gui was called, her face stiffened and she hurriedly got up to leave, looking a little embarrassed.

Only Feng Lingxi and the Empress remained in the hall. The Empress poured tea for Feng Lingxi, looking at Princess Yao Hua's smile, and softly said, "Princess Yao Hua, this palace has a question I would like to ask you, hoping that the princess will tell me the truth."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

To be frank with Princess Yaohua, the former Fourth Royal Consort and I were friends long ago. Now that you've come here with your entourage, clearly intending to marry the Fourth Prince, this Palace wishes to ask the princess, is it absolutely necessary for you to marry the Fourth Prince

Feng Lingxi was inwardly surprised. She hadn't expected the Empress to have always considered her a friend and now help her.

Although so, her identity cannot be revealed.

"This princess only wants to marry the God of War, who happens to be the Fourth Prince."

Feng Lingxi's willful reply made the Empress laugh, "Then why didn't the princess choose to marry the Emperor The Emperor is the Fourth Prince's elder brother, not inferior to the Fourth Prince in any way."

"This princess just likes a war god like the Fourth Prince. I don't want to be any noble consort."

"This Palace understands."

It seems Feng Lingxi and the Fourth Prince's fate has truly run its course. The Empress Dowager has always wanted to capture Feng Lingxi and obtain the Purple Star. Now, with the princess of the Arah Summer Dynasty insisting on marrying Dugu Cheng, she hopes that this time, the Arah Summer Dynasty will bring Feng Lingxi back so that she can escape during the journey and never return.

This court, it has already changed. It is no longer the same as it once was. Staying here, she doesn't dare to think about how Feng Lingxi would face it.

"Your Majesty, Yao Hua is confused. Since Your Majesty and Feng Ling Xi have such a close relationship, why wouldn't You help her plead with the Empress Dowager for mercy and spare her life"

"What do you mean, Princess Yaohua"

The Empress dodged her gaze. Feng Lingxi saw this and said, "To be frank with Her Majesty the Empress, Feng Lingxi was sent by the Emperor of Ahua to my princess and my family as a betrothal gift. After my marriage to the Fourth Prince is complete, I will present her to the Dowager Empress and let her decide her fate. From what Your Majesty said, it seems that you don't want anything to happen to Feng Lingxi."

"I wouldn't dare disobey the Empress Dowager's wishes. Princess Yaohua, consider my previous words as if I never said them. This Palace will have Nanny send you to Noble Consort Long." The Empress was shaken by Feng Lingxi's words. If Princess Yaohua went and told the Empress Dowager, she would be punished again.

Feng Lingxi got up and left the Fengyi Palace.

"Princess, the prince has arrived."

Xiao Li whispered, Feng Ling Xi hurriedly asked Xiao Li to take her to find Huang Fu Qing Yun. This palace was stuffy and she needed to go for a walk, otherwise she would suffocate.

Every single person in this palace is scheming their way through life, none of them are genuine. She doesn't like this feeling, these past two days, she feels like she's not herself at all.

"How did he get here"

Feng Lingxi frowned, seeing Xiaoli shaking her head. She walked towards the Imperial Study, but before she reached it, she saw Huangfu Qingyun coming out from there. Seeing her, he quickly stepped forward.

"Brother Emperor, how did you get here"

Huángfǔ Qīngyún looked at Fēng Língxī's face and almost blurted out "Xī'er," fortunately, he held himself back.

"Yaohua, I'm here to take you back."

Wind Ling nodded, "I was just thinking about leaving the palace. This palace isn't fun. I want to go back to the inn."

Huangfu Qingyun nodded. "Your older brother has already asked the Emperor, and he's allowed you to leave the palace. Let's go."

Feng Lingxi happily followed Huangpu Qingyun's footsteps, leaving the palace.

Once they left the palace, Huangpu Qingyun and Feng Lingxi sat in a carriage. Feng Lingxi eagerly asked, "Brother Huang, what did you want to ask Dugu Yan for"

"It was he who summoned me to the palace and told me about your marriage, intending for you to enter the palace as a consort. My elder brother refused and insisted that you marry Dugu City."

Huanghpu Qingyun's words fell, and a dark glint appeared in her eyes. Feng Lingxi's face also darkened following suit.

"I didn't expect he would have his eyes on me. Looks like I was too lenient these past two days."

"It's the Empress Dowager's meaning."

Huangfu Qingyun looked at Feng Lingxi, “They suspect that Feng Lingxi is not with us and are deliberately probing. Xi’er, in the future, you must be more careful and cautious in your actions. Don't let them catch you.”

"I understand, you do too."

Looking into her worried eyes, Huangpu Qingyun felt heartache. Coming back this way, he wasn't sure if she would succeed. This was the Dawan Dynasty, not the Araxia Dynasty. There was little he could do to help her. There was still no news from Dugu City, and he didn't know when Xi'er would be able to clear her name.

Princess Yaohua's presence made him uncomfortable, and Xi'er felt the same way.

"Has Dugu City looked for you"

He hasn't come to the palace these two days, I don't know what he's busy with. Although I know we're acting along in this play, being apart like this, I still miss him a little.

He didn't come to me, but I heard from his household that they said you are not allowed to step into the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

Feng Lingxi couldn't help but laugh aloud, "This move is truly ruthless. No wonder Dugu Yan remembered taking me into the palace. It seems that if we add a little more fuel to the fire, it will be almost enough."

"However, it's best to be cautious. Don't forget, Yao Feifei has also entered the palace."

Feng Lingxi's smile froze on her face, her eyes turned cold, "Then let's wash away the charges of poisoning the previous emperor first. As for the rest, we can talk about it later."

I agree. Let's go to the Fourth Prince's Mansion tonight.

Feng Lingxi nodded and returned to the inn, each going back to their rooms to rest.

Four King's Mansion

Ye Xi added fuel to the fire and told the King about what Princess Yao Hua had done in the palace. Looking at the smile on the King's lips, Ye Xi couldn't help but wonder if the King's brain had really been messed up by Princess Yao Hua. Talking about her, the King was actually smiling so happily. Could it be that the King was interested in Princess Yao Hua

“My Lord, what I'm saying is about Princess Yao Hua. Shouldn't you be furious after hearing this How can you still smile She has meddled in the palace, and the Emperor certainly won't allow her to enter the palace as a consort. He will push her onto you then. My Lord, are you truly going to abandon your wife to marry Princess Yao Hua”

Dugu Cheng widened his smile, looking at Ye Xi's indignant expression and chuckled, "Forgot to tell you, Yaohua is Xiaer."

Ye Xi was so surprised by this that her mouth could fit a whole chicken egg.d won't let anyone bully their older sister."Including my brother-in-law, if he bullies my sister, I will definitely not let him off.Although Feng Yu Mo didn't say it to him, Dugu Cheng could feel the...
