Chapter 504 Revenge 148

    

upset.""I hear what my mother says."Dugu Yan looked at her mother's satisfied expression, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief."When light fails, darkness prevails. I still have a few trusted co..."There's no pity in their eyes. They all wish I wouldn't bother with them."

Wind Ling Xi listened to Empress Cen's words, that complaining tone, it seemed these days Dugu Yan and Dugu Xiu hadn't spared her any arguments. However, what she didn't quite understand was, why would Dugu Yan argue with Feng Yu Xi and Empress Cen she could understand, but what about Dugu Xiu

If Gu Yan were to clash with the Empress Dowager, wouldn't that be most beneficial for him

"Your Majesty, shall we go see Consort Long first"

Feng Lingxi changed the subject, this rescue of Dugu City is the key point. She told the Empress Dowager these words and didn't know what kind of treatment Dugu City was enduring in prison. She had to get him out as soon as possible.

The Empress Dowager was deeply upset. Thinking about what happened to Consort Long, she was very dissatisfied with Lady Dugu Yan's actions this time. This kind of incident, which damaged the royal dignity, she dared to act like this, and moreover, she didn't even give her a heads-up. She truly didn't treat her as the Empress Dowager.

Thinking he was poisoned, she sought out Feng Lingxi to save him. He, however, didn't even want her, his own mother.

Empress Dowager Cen and Feng Lingxi arrived at Zhaoyang Palace where Feng Linglong resided. Looking at the palace maids and eunuchs guarding outside, this scale was no less than that of Empress's Fenyi Hall. The moment Empress Dowager Cen and Feng Lingxi stepped into Zhaoyang Palace, the news reached inside. Feng Linglong hurriedly struggled to get up, but she was stopped by Dugu Yan.

"The Empress Dowager has arrived!"

Cen Taihou entered the bedroom, Feng Linglong struggled to get up again to pay her respects, but Dugu Yan stopped her once more.

"My son greets his mother. How did your Majesty arrive"

Dugu Yan got up and walked to Cen Taizhi's front to pay her respects. Seeing Feng Linglong getting up behind her, she quickly rushed over and supported her, reproaching her with distress, "I told you not to get up, how can you be so stubborn"

Feng Linglong's face was as pale as paper, devoid of any blood color. Her delicate features seemed fragile, as if she could faint at any moment. This sight made Dugu Yan's heart ache, but he couldn't bear to scold her.

Feng Linglong managed to squeeze out a smile, “Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has come personally. How could this concubine not come down and pay her respects”

Saying that, she tumbled off the bed. Dugu Yan nervously shouted loudly, “What are you all doing standing there Quickly help the noble concubine Long back onto the bed.”

"Since Empress Lóng is so frail, all these formalities can be dispensed with. Today, I've specially brought the Fourth Princess to you. She's here to thoroughly examine your health. You're expecting a child, and your body needs careful attention. This examination will ensure everything is in order for you to give the Emperor an heir in the future."

Feng Linglong heard Feng Lingxi had arrived. She looked up and met Feng Lingxi's gaze. The sharpness in her eyes, as if able to pierce through her very soul, sent a chill down Feng Linglong's spine. Why had Empress Cen brought her here Wasn't she supposed to be avoiding the palace after their falling out

This time, Dugu Cheng was implicated and thrown into prison. Feng Lingxi came here, she would definitely take this opportunity to make her unable to turn over.

She absolutely cannot let Feng Lingxi's revenge succeed, she must before that, drag Feng Lingxi down as well.

“Your Majesty, I have already had the Imperial Physician examine Lady Long’s condition. He has prescribed medicine for her and advised her to recuperate properly. There is no need for Fourth Princess to worry.” Dugu Yan did not even glance at Feng Ling Xi as she spoke. Her tone towards Feng Ling Xi was a stark departure from her usual warmth, replacing it with an icy distance that caused Empress Cen’s brows to furrow slightly.

"Your Majesty, the Fourth Princess Consort is a woman after all, and her medical skills are not inferior to those of the imperial physicians. Let her thoroughly examine Noble Consort Long, only then can this humble concubine rest assured."

Du Gu Yan glanced at Feng Ling Xi, "Mother Empress, this matter is related to Du Gu Cheng. As the Princess Consort of Du Gu Cheng, Feng Ling Xi might deliberately frame Long Gui Fei to clear Du Gu Cheng's name. I absolutely will not allow anyone to bully Long Gui Fei. None of my children have been able to live a healthy life. Mother Empress, don't you find this strange"

Feng Lingxi heard Dugu Yan's words and was furious. It was as if she had said that it was her fault that his offspring couldn't be born, ignoring the state of his own harem. He had the audacity to say such things.

Of course, Empress Cen stood on Feng Lingxi's side. After all, she came here to find out the truth of the matter.

At this rate, she would lose all standing in the palace as Empress Dowager.

"The Emperor is right, none of the concubines in the harem have been able to give birth. The Emperor should indeed reflect on this. As for what happened between Long Gui and Dugu Cheng, I will naturally get to the bottom of it."

Feng Linglong heard what Empress Cen said, and the panic in her eyes made her instinctively grab Dugu Yan's arm, seeking help from her.

"Your Majesty, my concubine knows that no matter what she says, the Empress Dowager will not believe her. It would be better for my concubine to apologize with her death and prove her innocence. My concubine truly..."

"If Concubine Long Gui wants to prove her innocence, then she should die to atone for it."

Queen Cen interrupted Feng Linglong's words, looking at her pitiful appearance made her feel sick. Before Dugu Yan could speak, she sternly rebuked, "The harem is filled with women like you who confuse the Emperor, causing him to lose his judgment. Although Dugu Cheng is not my biological son, I know his character well. He would never abandon the Fourth Princess for someone like you!"

"The Empress Dowager has calmed her anger, and this concubine doesn't know why the Fourth Prince would have pounced on this concubine. This concubine became pregnant in the Cold Palace, and she never expected such a situation to happen; otherwise, the child wouldn't have miscarried."

Feng Linglong's eyes were welling up with tears, her sorrowful expression making everyone feel sorry for her.

The more she acted this way, the more displeased Empress Cen became with her.

"What you mean is that Dugu City is at fault. This Empress wants to know, why was Dugu City in your cold palace This Empress has heard that Dugu City was ordered into the palace to investigate your cause of death."

Feng Linglong's face changed drastically, she hurriedly knelt on the ground, tears welling up in her eyes as she looked at Empress Cen, "Empress Dowager, I know that my time reflecting in the Cold Palace is still short, but I truly don't know why I would say that Prince Si entered the palace to investigate the cause of my death. Perhaps I really deserve to die…"

"You really deserve to die."

Empress Cen coldly sneered, "Spreading rumors and deceiving the Emperor, you're quite the schemer. You intentionally framed Dugu City to get the Emperor's attention and use your unborn child as leverage to return to the palace. Your heart is truly wicked and cruel, you deserve death."

"Mother Empress, I do not know who told you these slanderous words. I can attest that Noble Consort Long was not acting out of a desire to leave the cold palace. When I was poisoned, Noble Consort Long secretly came from the cold palace to my bedroom and stayed by my side. She is not the kind of person Mother Empress described. Please, Mother Empress, be careful with your words."

Dugu Yan's rebuttal to Cen Taifei made Cen Taifei's face turn cold instantly. She angrily rebuked, "Emperor, do you mean that I falsely accused her of being cunning and sly If she truly doesn't want to come out, then explain it to me, why was Dugu Cheng sent to the Cold Palace and imprisoned"
