Chapter 590: Conspiracy 76

ng searched everywhere for Feng Lingxi's figure in the market. He couldn't believe that what he heard was just an illusion. Perhaps, he had just brushed shoulders with Xi'er, or maybe he hadn't found..."Mother, please do not scold Consort Longgui. She left the palace to pray for me."

Dugu Yan grabbed Feng Linglong's hand, her eyes full of tenderness. Feng Lingxi felt a chill run down her spine. Was this Feng Linglong really praying for blessings Did Dugu Yan just believe it In this deep palace, could things be so easily believed

"Alright, this Empress understands. If the Empress Dowager could also be like this and ease this Empress's worries, then this Empress would be at peace."

Dugu Yan pursed her lips and remained silent. Perhaps because Feng Lingxi was present, Dugu Yan's words this time were noticeably evasive. She didn't even ask about her injuries. Feng Linglong was also well-behaved, and throughout the meal, they ate quite comfortably.

After the meal, the imperial physicians summoned by Empress Cen were all waiting outside the hall. Seeing the empress kneeling outside, they were all terrified. Feng Yuxi was even more surprised that she had been kneeling for half an hour and hadn't been called up yet. Her knees were numb from kneeling, and her body had gone stiff from the cold.

Feng Lingxi walked out and looked at the imperial physicians waiting outside. She said calmly, "The Empress Dowager invites all of you into the palace."

The imperial physicians hurried in with their medical chests. Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yu Xi kneeling on the ground and said calmly, "Your Majesty, please rise. The Empress Dowager is in a foul mood, you kneeling here won't do anything. Your health is more important."

Feng Yu Xi looked at Feng Ling Xi, "How do you know it's useless"

Feng Linglong walked out of the palace and saw Feng Yuxi still kneeling on the ground. She hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, "Your Majesty, the Fourth Princess is right. The Empress Dowager's mind is currently on the Emperor. We should go back first."

Feng Linglong winked at Feng Yuxi, and Feng Yuxi then got up and looked at Feng Lingxi, "Shouldn't the Fourth Princess go back"

The Empress Dowager left a decree, fearing it might be late before she could return.

"May I visit the Fengyi Palace later and have a chat with you"

Windling nodded, and Fengyu Xi only then left with Wind and Linglong.

"Grandma Zhang, no one is allowed to step into Shou'an Palace."

Feng Lingxi coldly ordered and then turned to enter the hall.

Dugu Yan sat there, imperial physicians kneeling before him for a consultation. Seeing Feng Lingxi enter, Dugu Yan’s eyes fell on her. After so long, she was even more radiant and captivating. However, this radiance had nothing to do with him.

How is the Emperor

The Empress Dowager saw the Imperial physician finish his examination and immediately asked, "Imperial Physician Zhang," The physician stood up and walked before the Empress Dowager, his face grave. Lonely Goose seeing this, calmly said, “Just say it, how is my health I have an idea in my heart.”

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the toxins within the Emperor's body have spread to all his organs. I am incompetent and beg for your forgiveness, Empress Dowager."

The other imperial physicians all knelt down, each one trembling with fear. Everyone knew the emperor's poison had no cure, yet they were all afraid of being implicated in his death.

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Yan, seeing him with a calm expression, as if he had known this result long ago. At that moment, she suddenly felt sorry for him too. Being the emperor without real power, doing things he didn't like, such a life was truly miserable.

"Is there absolutely nothing we can do"

Empress Cen's face grew paler and whiter. She looked at Feng Lingxi with pleading eyes, knowing that Feng Lingxi was definitely capable of it.

"All you Imperial Physicians, as those who have passed the examination to enter the Imperial Hospital, should know. The poison in the Emperor's body is composed of two types. They must be treated separately. While it presents a challenge, it is not impossible for you skilled physicians."

Feng Lingxi's words caused the imperial physicians to show varied expressions. Feng Lingxi walked up to Dugu Yan and placed her handkerchief on his wrist, beginning to take his pulse.

Dugu Yan looked at Feng Lingxi, unable to bear the cough, she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, trying to suppress the urge to cough. She didn't want to appear too vulnerable in front of Feng Lingxi, but even so, she couldn't hide it from Feng Lingxi's medical skills.

How is it going

Empress Cen looked at Feng Lingxi, her eyes full of worry.

Although Dugu Yan didn't ask, his eyes still held a hint of anticipation.

Feng Lingxi walked before the imperial physicians, watching their evasive glances, a cold smile curving her lips.

"What does Zhang the imperial physician mean by that look"

Doctor Zhang was named, his eyes flashed a hint of panic, and he hurriedly said, "Fourth Royal Princess, I have no other intentions."

"Oh"

Feng Lingxi crouched down, opening the medicine chest beside her. She rummaged through it, picked up a bottle of medicine and sniffed it at her nose. Her beautiful eyes twitched slightly, and the sneer on her red lips made Zhang Taiyi's hair stand on end. He felt as if he were being pierced by her gaze.

"This medicine seems pretty good."

Dr. Zhang snatched it away, hastily stuffing it back into the medicine box, but Feng Lingxi snatched it from him the next second, her cold eyes flashing with a chilling light. "Doctor Zhang, what do you mean It's just a bottle of medicine, so nervous, could it be..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Lingxi opened the medicine bottle and poured the medicine directly into Zhang Taiyi's mouth. This startled Zhang Taiyi, whose face changed drastically. He hurriedly dug at his mouth, trying to spit out the swallowed pills.

"Fourth Princess, what do you mean"

Feng Lingxi stood up and looked at the physicians kneeling on the ground. Her beautiful eyes swept over them.

"You are all Imperial physicians from the Taiping Hospital, renowned for your exceptional medical skills. Yet, why is it that every time you treat the Emperor, you fail to make any progress It's not that you lack true ability; rather, you choose not to utilize it. In that case, let us test your medical prowess and see just how skilled you truly are."

Doctor Zhang was unable to expel the poison he had ingested, his face pale and lifeless. He pointed at Feng Lingxi, "Fourth Princess, if you want to kill me, you should at least have a reason. To poison me like this, I refuse to accept it!"

Feng Lingxi knelt down, clutching Zhang Taiyi's collar tightly. Her cold eyes met his, and the piercing gaze made Zhang Taiyi feel uneasy.

"Does the Fourth Royal Concubine want to kill me"

"You poisoned yourself, you'll be the one to cure it. Those who see this share in the consequences; none of you can escape."

Feng Lingxi swept her hand in front of them, and the imperial physicians only felt a strange scent spreading across their noses. Before they could react, they hurriedly covered their noses, looking at Feng Lingxi with eyes like they had seen a ghost.

"Fourth Princess, you…"

"Why all this anger, everyone You yourselves concocted these poisons. Surely you have antidotes"

No wonder it feels so familiar, it's the medicine powder they always carry.

The faces of the imperial physicians were ashen. They looked at Feng Lingxi with fear in their eyes, but even so, Feng Lingxi intended to let them go.

"I forgot to mention, about your poison, I think the antidote method is a little too simple. I added an ingredient on top. I believe the esteemed physicians among you will definitely not be able to solve the poison."

"Fourth Royal Concubine, do you want to kill us all!"

Dr. Zhang trembled with rage, staring at Feng Lingxi's confident expression. His eyes were filled with a surging fury.

"If I can't cure the emperor, you all will die anyway. Since death is inevitable, I shall poison you all and let you find your own antidote. Wouldn't that be a better way to go"

Feng Ling Xi's words made Zhang Taiyi unable to contain himself, "But you just said that we couldn't possibly solve the poison you put down."

"But you can cure the Emperor's poison. Once the Emperor's poison is cured, your poison will naturally be cured as well. I will help you all cure it. Wouldn't that be a win-win situation"now, we are still safe.""Good."With Lü's and Yan's help, the medicine powder shouldn't be a problem. However, Feng Lingxi still hasn't received news from Dugu City. Sending 10,000 soldiers to besiege...
