Chapter 586 Conspiracy 72

ed by her words. Looking at the way she looked at Dugu City, it turned out that he had lost, wasn't just because of those extra women in the harem. Xi'er didn't dislike him, but couldn't accept that h..."In that case, you didn't even see the person's appearance"

Feng Lingxi shook her head, looking at Cen Taihou's puzzled expression. "Indeed, I didn't notice that the other party would make such a move. That woman was dressed plainly, so I didn't think much of it. After being stabbed, I hadn't even recovered from the pain when she disappeared into the crowd."

"I heard from Dugu City that he thought he hadn't seen clearly, but I didn't expect even you couldn't see the person's appearance. These people are simply lawless. Under the emperor's feet, they dare to assassinate the princess of the Great Yuan Dynasty. It's too blatant disregard for the law. This palace will definitely find out who this person is."

"Thank you, Empress."

Feng Lingxi saw that Empress Cen was truly angry, and she repeatedly thanked her. No matter what her motives were, the fact that she stood by her side to avenge her was enough for her to be grateful.

The Empress Dowager looked at her, her eyes full of worry.

"Tell me the truth, who do you think might have tried to assassinate you Could it be an enemy"

Feng Lingxi shook her head, “Although I have offended quite a few people, none of them would go so far as to assassinate me. However, there is one thing that is rather coincidental.”

"What a coincidence"

Cen Taizi looked at Feng Lingxi, and the look in her eyes made Cen Taizi frown. "Do you doubt me"

"Of course not, if the Empress Dowager truly wanted to kill me, she wouldn't use such methods. A single word would suffice. What I find strange is that I agreed to help the Empress Dowager cure the Emperor, and went to the city ostensibly for medicine, yet happened to be attacked. I can't help but wonder if this incident is somehow related."

Feng Lingxi's words fell, and Empress Cen's eyes suddenly turned cold. Her narrowed gaze was filled with killing intent, as if she knew something.

"This Imperial Concubine has truly indulged them too much, allowing them to forget their own identities. They all want to climb over this Imperial Concubine's head."

Then Empress Cen flew into a rage and slammed her fist on the table. The palace maids and eunuchs inside were terrified and immediately knelt down. Feng Lingxi also stood up, looking at Empress Cen's terrifyingly cold eyes. It seemed that the Empress knew who did it.

"The Empress Dowager calmed her anger. I'm telling you this, it is just a guess, there's no evidence yet."

Empress Cen gestured to Feng Lingxi, indicating for her to sit down.

"It's not too early. You stay and have lunch with me, I have something to tell you. There's no need to rush out of the palace."

Feng Lingxi nodded, her brow furrowed in thought. Her beautiful eyes flickered slightly as she said, "Your Majesty Empress Dowager, could you perhaps invite the Empress to dine with us at midday Today, I saw the Empress in the Imperial Garden, and it seemed like she had something she wanted to tell me. Perhaps we could have a meal together"

"It seems I guessed right. As you wish, let the Empress join us for lunch. This palace truly needs to be properly managed. Zhang MaMa, pass on my decree and have the Empress and Long Gui Fei dine together in Shou An Palace."

Grandmother Zhang retreated upon hearing the request. Feng Lingxi looked at Empress Cen and unconsciously grasped her hand. Empress Cen saw her action, but didn't stop her, knowing that she was checking her body, so she went along with it.

After a while, Feng Lingxi let go of the Empress Dowager's wrist. Her eyes swept over the Empress Dowager's face before quickly withdrawing, and she smiled, saying, "Your Majesty is in good health, but you need to exercise restraint and avoid anger, lest your liver fire become too strong."

"With so many things happening, how can I not be angry."

The Empress Dowager looked at Feng Lingxi, "This old woman feels that the longer we spend together, the more she likes you, girl. You're not like those others who are so hypocritical and worry this old woman. "

"The Empress Dowager has made a great compliment."

Perhaps Empress Cen had been cautious about her diet and daily routine ever since the poisoning incident. In this murky and chaotic imperial court, she remained in such good health, which was quite unexpected.

"Empress Dowager, the Empress has arrived."

As soon as the words left her lips, Feng Lingxi and Cen Taizi looked up to see Feng Yuxi arriving with her personal maidservant. Seeing Feng Lingxi and the Empress Dowager sitting together, Feng Yuxi's eyes flickered with turmoil, but a smile graced her face.

Feng Ling Xi is really capable, the Empress Dowager even let her sit on equal footing. What does this mean

Her fists were clenched beneath her sleeves, but a gentle and graceful smile remained on her face.

"I, your humble servant, pay my respects to the Empress Dowager."

Empress Dowager Cen frowned. It wasn't even lunchtime yet, and they had arrived rather quickly.

Get up.

Feng Lingxi got up intending to pay her respects to Feng Yu Xi, but she was stopped by Empress Cen. "We were just talking about something, let's continue," she said.

The smile on Feng Yu's face gradually disappeared. When she arrived, Feng Lingxi hadn't even had a chance to greet her properly. Instead of acknowledging Feng Yu's presence, the Empress Dowager ignored her and continued discussing unfinished business with Feng Lingxi, as if relegating the empress to insignificance.

"Empress Dowager, the Empress has arrived. She must have something important to discuss. I'll tell you all about it later."

Feng Ling Xi stood up and bowed to Feng Ling Xi, her tone flat, "Greetings to the Empress."

"Fourth Royal Consort, you may forego the formalities. Your body seems to be…"

"I've already said, dispense with the formalities. Since you're feeling well, just sit here with me."

Before the evening talk could be finished, Empress Cen spoke up, reprimanding Feng Lingxi. However, her words clearly conveyed her displeasure at Feng Lingxi's bowing to Feng Yuxi. As the empress, she was deprived of proper etiquette, and where would she put her face

However, the Empress Dowager favored Feng Lingxi so much that even though she was extremely displeased, she could only endure it.

"The Empress Dowager said, 'You're a bit unwell, so there's no need for formalities. We are sisters, after all, so there's no need to be so distant.'"

Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yu Xi's eyes, seeing the suppressed anger within. On the surface, she still had to maintain the appearance of a proper empress, it was truly a hardship for her.

Feng Yu-xi walked to Empress Cen's side, thinking the Empress would let her sit beside her. Unexpectedly, Empress Cen raised an eyebrow and questioned her with displeasure, "Your Majesty, what business do you have coming over at this time This old woman invited you to have lunch together, but it's still early. If there's nothing important, please go back to the Fengyi Palace first and come later. This old woman wants to talk to the Fourth Princess for a while."

Feng Yu's face turned pale and flushed repeatedly. This expulsion order was too harsh, wasn't it In front of Feng Ling Xi, she didn't even give her any face.

As the Empress, could she possibly be inferior to Feng Lingxi, just a mere princess

"This servant will take her leave first."

As the storm clouds parted, a flash of anger ignited in his eyes, unable to be concealed. He clenched his fists tightly, letting the rage ebb away.

Feng Lingxi saw Feng Yu leave after the wind and rain, her beautiful eyes slightly furrowed. Cen Taizi laughed and asked, "How come, you don't feel sorry for the Empress"

"In that case, the Empress Dowager might treat me even worse."

Feng Lingxi’s words carried a hint of helplessness. This Empress Cen was truly cunning, directing all the flames of war onto her. Would Yu Xi let this slide It seemed she didn't want to join forces with the Empress, no matter what. This old ginger was still fiery.

"With Empress Dowager protecting you, what can she possibly do to you Do you think she came here for anything else She's here to cause you trouble."

"What does the Empress mean by this"

Empress Dowager Cen’s voice was slightly cold, “How so, Fourth Princess Consort Huì is a virtuous and elegant lady, wouldn't she be able to see through the Empress' intentions”

"The Empress Dowager means that the Empress came this time to test me"
