it, she disposed of the dregs and finally felt relieved.At night, Feng Lingxi changed into the night-walking clothes she had bought from outside and quietly left the mansion with Xiao Li.There was one..."The princess misunderstood. This palace merely felt that you and Feng Lingxi have similar personalities, and both are skilled in medicine. If you could serve the Fourth Prince together, wouldn't it be even more pleasing to him"

The queen's probing intent was blatant. She wasn't here to test if she was a ghost.

"Your Majesty, Yao Hua doesn't practice medicine; she only knows poisons. Poisons and medicine are quite different. Yao Hua uses her poisons to kill, while Feng Ling Xi uses her medicine to save lives."

"Isn't poison a kind of medicine"

When the Empress found a breakthrough, she began to talk.

Feng Lingxi wouldn't have failed to notice the probing intent in her words. He explained, "The poisons my master taught me are all for killing. My body isn't suitable for martial arts. My master was worried that I would be unable to protect myself if I encountered danger in the future, so he had me learn poisons."

"But didn't you save your mother by curing her poison"

Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes sank slightly, "Isn't that all because the Empress Dowager is extremely kind to Yao Hua, and Yao Hua can't bear to see him die"

"Could someone who knows how to poison also know how to antidote"

Feng Lingxi nodded, meeting the empress's curious gaze. "However, many poisons are incurable."

And what about your medical skills

Feng Lingxi shook her head, “I know the herbs for making poison, but as for those that heal, I don’t.”

The Empress, upon hearing her words, already had the answer in her heart.

Although Yao Hua Princess and Feng Ling Xi shared many similarities, when she heard these words, they were undoubtedly not the same person.

Looking at Feng Lingxi's face, thinking of what Dugu Yan had said to her, this human skin mask would show its flaws once it got wet. The empress held the tea and sipped it lightly, deliberately splashing some of the tea on the ground. Feng Lingxi hurriedly knelt down, and the empress took the opportunity to splash some tea water on Feng Lingxi's face, quickly saying, "This palace slipped. Princess Yao Hua, are you alright"

The Empress hurriedly reached out to wipe the wind Lingxi's face, and wind Lingxi hurriedly wiped it with her hand, smiling and shaking her head.

"It's nothing, just spilled some tea water, it doesn't matter."

The Empress's eyes searched her face, but found no trace of deception.

"Your Majesty, is there something on my face"

Feng Ling hurriedly wiped her face, and the Empress came back to her senses and hastily said, "No, this palace was just looking at your face and felt that your skin was smooth and delicate. It's good to be young."

Feng Ling lowered her head, feigning shyness, "Your Majesty the Empress, you and I are around the same age, but you are even more beautiful."

"No wonder the Empress likes you so much, your mouth is truly sweet."

The Empress rose. "This palace still has to go see the Dowager Empress, would Lady Yao Hua like to go together"

Feng Lingxi hurriedly got up, "Yes, then let's go now."

The Empress watched Feng Lingxi wipe the tea water from her face and tidy herself up before following her to see the Dowager Empress. Along the way, there was not a trace of flaw on her face, and the Empress's heart also settled down.

It seems they overthought it. Princess YaoHua isn't Feng LingXi, but rather a princess from the Huang Xia Dynasty.

In the Si Wangfu, Dugu City listened to Ye Xi's report on the news from the palace. He held a teacup, took a sip, and stood up.

"This king must enter the palace. They will surely suspect Ai'er."

Huangfu Qingyun stopped him, "Don't be impulsive. If Xi'er truly needs help, she would ask us for it. You rashly entering the palace will disrupt Xi'er's plan and might expose her identity. Don't let all her previous efforts go to waste."

He worried about Xier, but he trusted Xier's ability to handle things well.

"Then we just sit here and wait"

Dugu Cheng was restless, suspecting everything on Xi'er. If they really found out about Xi'er's existence, he didn't dare to imagine what Dugu Yan and the Empress Dowager would do to her.

"Perhaps I should go to the palace and inquire about it. My identity might be more suitable for this."

Dugu City nodded, "Be careful."

Shou'an Palace

Feng Lingxi and the Empress came together to visit Empress Cen. Seeing that Empress Cen's complexion had improved, the Empress beamed with joy.

When Empress Cen saw Feng Lingxi and the Empress appear, she beckoned to Feng Lingxi, "Yao Hua, come sit by this old woman."

Feng Lingxi glanced at the Empress's face that had suddenly changed color, then forced herself to walk over.

"Mother, you look very well today. Is there anything uncomfortable about your body Would you like the imperial physician to come and take a look"

"With Yao Hua by my side, I have no need for those imperial physicians. They are a bunch of incompetent fools, not even as skilled as Yao Hua."

Feng Lingxi, flustered by the empress dowager's praise, took her hand and acted coquettishly, "Empress Dowager, although Yaohua has helped you with the poison, your body still needs to be examined by a imperial physician. Yaohua's medical skills are not refined, and I can't afford to leave any aftereffects."

Then Empress Cen smiled brightly as she listened to Feng Ling Xi's words, “Very well, very well. Since Yao Hua says to have the imperial physician take a look, then let the imperial physician take a look.”

Empress Cen summoned the imperial physician. After the examination, the imperial physician looked at Feng Lingxi in astonishment, “Reporting to Your Majesty, Princess Yao Hua’s medical skills are superb. The poison on Your Majesty’s body has disappeared, and there is no harm to your body. You just need to recuperate for a while and you will be fine.”

Empress Cen nodded in satisfaction, "It seems Yaohua is still the most capable."

"Empress Dowager, Yao Hua only removed the poison. The rest still needs to be treated by a doctor."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking and said to the imperial physician, "Imperial Physician, please help care for Empress Dowager's health."

The imperial physician hurried to respond, and seeing the Empress Dowager's admiring gaze towards Princess Yao Hua, he immediately went to write a prescription and prepare the medicine.

"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince seeks an audience."

"Brother Emperor is here"

Feng Lingxi's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said to the Empress Dowager, "Empress Dowager, my elder brother must be here to find me. Can I see him"

"Announce."

Huangfu Qingyun entered the hall, performed a bow, and his gaze swept over Feng Lingxi who was sitting beside Empress Cen. His heart couldn't help but settle. It seemed that Xi'er was now out of danger.

"Prince Huangfu, have you come to the palace to find Yao Hua"

Huangfu Qingyun glanced at Feng Lingxi and truthfully said, "I heard that Yao Hua was taken out of the palace by the Fourth Prince and returned in a hurry. I'm a little worried about her, so I came to take a look."

"Brother, Yaohua is fine. Don't worry."

Feng Lingxi coquettishly stepped forward, taking Emperor Fu Qingyun's arm, "The Empress Dowager was unwell these past two days, so I came back to take care of her."

Cen Taizi looked at the way the siblings interacted, wanting to glean some information from their eyes. However, Feng Lingxi's expression was simply that of a younger sister towards her older brother, while Huangpu Qingyun's gaze was filled with concern, nothing more.

"Crown Prince Huangpu, this old Empress is unwell. Thanks to Yao Hua's care, I did not expect to worry you."

Huangfu Qingyun hurriedly said, "Empress Dowager, it is Yao Hua's duty to take care of you. I have overthought it."

Feng Lingxi pouted, complaining to Huangfu Qingyun with dissatisfaction, "Brother Emperor is too much of a worrywart. I'm doing great here. Father and Mother asked you to come keep me company and visit with my family, not to watch over me."

"Yaohua, in front of the Empress Dowager, one must not be disrespectful."

Huangfu Qingyun feigned a stern reprimand, Feng Lingxi pouted with grievance, and Empress Cen smiled and said, "Crown Prince Huangfu, Yao Hua's personality is straightforward and I quite like her. You needn't be so formal."00,000 troops."Feng Lingxi stepped forward and helped him up, “General Zhang, get up. I understand what you mean. Even if you didn’t say it, I had plans too. But the current situation is that no matte...
