making sure she was unharmed before letting out a sigh of relief."Your Highness, Miss Lin is fine."Li Nuo bowed respectfully and, seeing the prince's anxious expression, quickly explained that he had..."How despicable."
獨孤城聽到母親被囚禁，氣憤地衝上前揪著獨孤修的衣領，對於他嘴角的冷笑，冷聲警告道，“如此卑鄙的手段，你們真的覺得丟人嗎？”
Du Gu Xiu suddenly pushed him away, looking at Du Gu Cheng's angry expression, his mood was so good, finally able to make him angry.
"Fourth Brother, this is not my idea. It's the Emperor and Empress Dowager who meant it, I'm just passing on their orders."
Dugu Cheng looked at the imperial decree in his hand, reached out and snatched it, opened it with a glance, and threw it in front of him. His forehead was furrowed with anger, and the blue veins on it were faintly visible. Dugu Xiu bent over and picked up the imperial decree, a smug smile on his lips that made Dugu Cheng want to punch him.
"I know Fourth Brother is angry, but what can be done After Fourth Brother married Feng Lingxi, he should have known the consequences. The Yao Clan's treasure is what Mother wants, and Feng Lingxi is the woman the Emperor desires. Fourth Brother took the Emperor's woman, didn't he ever think there would be a day like this"
"Dugu Xiu, this king will say it again, Xi'er belongs to this king, she is not Dugu Yan's woman. Also, don't forget, the poison in your body, Xi'er can poison you once, and she can poison you a second time. Next time, it won't be so easy to detoxify."
Du Gu Cheng's words caused Du Gu Xiu to burst into laughter. Looking at Du Gu Cheng's indignant expression, he found it utterly amusing.
"Feng Lingxi's poison is indeed powerful, but to want to imprison this king is still a little tender. Fourth brother, you have this mind to rely on Feng Lingxi's underhanded means of poisoning. You might as well think about how to retaliate against the emperor and empress dowager, attack Tianqi country, and take the treasures from Yaozu. These are all urgent matters. If you don't go, your mother concubine and Feng Lingxi's mother are probably not safe."
Dugu Cheng clenched his fists, watching Dugu Xiu's arrogance. This Dugu Yan must be crazy, entrusting everything to him, taking back military power, was nothing more than wanting to control the military power, letting him attack Tianqi Country, weakening his forces, and even letting Dugu Xiu suppress him.
If it weren't for Xi'er reminding him not to reveal this matter to Dugu Xiu, he wouldn't be here trying to appease him.
Seeing that Dugu Cheng remained silent, Dugu Xiu thought he had been suppressed by him. He handed the imperial edict to him, "Fourth Brother, accept the edict, this king awaits your good news." He shoved the imperial edict into Dugu Cheng's hand and, regardless of his willingness, laughed heartily as he left.
"My Lord, are you alright"
Ye Xi looked at the anger in the king's eyes and quickly soothed, "Shu Taifei will be fine, and the Holy Lord will be fine too. You have to believe in the ability of the Holy Lord and Shu Taifei."
"This king underestimated Dugu Xiu and the court's connections. Our every move is within their grasp, causing my mother to be trapped in this dire situation." Dugu Cheng clenched his fists, his eyes filled with a suppressed hatred.
"Your Highness, this Sixth Prince is just a petty man. Your Highness should wait for the Princess to return before making any plans"
"Where's Xi'er It's getting late."
Seeing the King leave, Ye Xi hurriedly followed. At this hour, the Queen hasn't returned yet, no wonder the King is worried.
Feng Lingxi and Bai Xiaod ie returned to Linxi County, as soon as they dismounted, they saw Bai Mo standing not far away, and quickly walked up.
"Your Highness, Xiaodai, you two are finally back." Bai Mo Bai saw that they were safe and sound. A stone dropped from his heart as he quickly walked up to Bai Xiaodai's face. Seeing her dusty appearance, all his longing was put away.
"Is something wrong"
Feng Lingxi hurriedly asked, their return time was indeed a bit late, but fortunately nothing happened.
"The Sixth Prince came to look for the King, and the King was greeting him. I was a little worried about you all, so I waited here."
Hearing that Dugu Xiu had arrived, Feng Lingxi frowned, "How come that fellow is so bothersome"
Bai Mo glanced at Feng Lingxi who was looking towards the direction of the king's camp, "I wonder if he has left yet."
"Do you know what he's here to do"
"It seems like an imperial decree has arrived."
Upon hearing the imperial decree, Feng Lingxi's face darkened. "I'll go take a look. You guys continue chatting."
Feng Lingxi hadn't gone far when she saw Dugu City and Ye Xi walking towards her. Upon seeing her, Dugu City quickly walked up to her, looking at Feng Lingxi who had returned safely, he held her hand, "Xi'er, are you alright"
"It's nothing, it's you. What did Dugu Xiu ask you to do"
The emperor has ordered me to attack the Heavenly Revelation Kingdom and take the treasures from the Yao Clan.
"I give you the military command"
Seeing Dugu Cheng shake his head, Feng Lingxi's face darkened. "Dugu Yan and Empress Cen are truly shameless. They clearly want to take this opportunity to reclaim military power for Dugu Xiu and weaken yours in the process. They even want to use Tianqi Nation to eliminate you. It's utterly despicable. I cannot agree to this."
Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, wanting to speak but stopping himself. However, Ye Xi spoke up for him.
"My lady, the King does not want to agree with the Sixth Prince, but Empress Dowager and…"
"Ye Xi!"
Dugu Cheng's handsome face darkened, "Shut up."
Feng Lingxi looked at Ye Xi, her beautiful eyes sinking. "Ye Xi, continue. What's wrong with your mother"
Ye Xi timidly glanced at the King, and seeing his anger, fell silent.
"What's wrong with Mother"
Feng Lingxi questioned Dugu Cheng, "Did Dugu Yan attack your mother"
They imprisoned the imperial concubine in the Prince's residence, and the mother-in-law was also confined by Empress Dowager Cen in the palace. I'm afraid our actions this time made them realize the threat we pose to them, and they want to take this opportunity to eliminate us."
"Mean."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "This Cen Empress is clearly trying to take this opportunity to weaken your military power. Dugu Xiu and Tianqi Kingdom's cooperation may not be genuine. It's very possible that we have been deceived by Dugu Xiu."
As soon as Feng Lingxi thought of Duguxiu's expression, she felt like slapping him twice.
"It's pointless to argue now. If we don't attack Tianqi Nation, my mother and your mother will be in grave danger. Not only that, but we'll have to hand over the Yao Clan's treasure with both hands. They probably want Tianqi Nation to gain an advantage over us. Even if we win against Tianqi Nation later, we'll still lose a significant portion of our troops."
"Mother should be able to save herself."
Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, "Mother concubine was able to escape from Empress Cen's hands before, I believe she can this time too. I'll have Xiaoli go and arrange for the disciples of Yaozu to investigate news about Mother and the mother concubine."
She couldn't just let them manipulate her. If they wanted to take this opportunity to weaken Dugu City's military power, they had to see if they were capable of it.
Feng Lingxi instructed Xiaoli to investigate the situation of Empress Shu and Yao Wanting, then told Dugu Cheng about her trip to Tianqi Kingdom to meet the Prince Consort. This was the best news they had now, but for them, even if Lan Zhan agreed, it was still risky. They would only know on that day whether this plan would succeed.
Dugu Cheng, this plan cannot have any flaws this time. Dugu Xiu is a troublesome fellow, I want you to do me a favor.
