even forget my original intentions.""The old slave obeys your command.""Let's see her off. Someone in this palace will probably ask her for tea again.""Your Majesty the Empress, why won't you allow t..."State your request."
Dugu Yu glared at Feng Ling Xi, his voice a warning, "If anything were to happen to this king's beloved wife, you would be buried with her."
Feng Lingxi curled her lips into a smile. "Third Prince, do you think threatening me will save her Let's talk about cooperation instead. If we cooperate, everyone will be safe and sound."
Dugu Yu looked at Feng Lingxi's smile and confidence on the edge of her lips. He thought that keeping her here would give him some time, but he didn't expect this woman to be so ruthless.
"I've imprisoned you, but I had no intention of harming you. Yet, you poisoned my beloved consort. Such ruthlessness from the Fourth Princess... I wonder if your brother is aware"
Feng Lingxi heard his words, and the smile on her lips deepened.
"How, Third Prince intends to use this to threaten me I'm afraid you've been away from the capital for too long and don't know my reputation in the city. However, rest assured, Third Prince, Feng Lingxi though vicious, but also knows who to target. As the saying goes, if someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend them. But if they dare to offend me, I will surely punish them!"
Dugu Yu trembled upon hearing her words, his gaze fixated on the coldness in her eyes. He was frightened by the chill radiating from her.
"To be frank, Your Majesty, I agree to cooperate with you and help cure the poison affecting my beloved consort."
"Answer me a few questions first."
Having been imprisoned for days, she couldn't just let him go. She wanted to save the Third Princess, but she wouldn't help unless she understood those questions. She wouldn't administer the antidote to the Third Princess until Dugu Yu truly abandoned his wife.
"Answer me honestly, did you tell Dugu City that I was taken here by you"
Feng Lingxi, after finishing her question, looked into Dugu Yu's eyes and reminded him, "If you want to cooperate with me, then tell me the truth. Otherwise, I can cure the poison from your Third Princess, but I can also give her more poison. Then it won't be as simple as seven days."
Feng Lingxi's words made Dugu Yu's eyes even colder. He knew Feng Lingxi's medical skills were superb, and he had heard a lot about her. Now that they were truly fighting, he realized her ruthlessness was no less than any man.
獨孤城 actually has such good fortune, marrying Feng Lingxi, the fourth miss of the Feng family back then. Unexpectedly, she's a hidden expert.
“No, Your Majesty did not speak to him.”
"Have him come see me, and then we'll talk about the antidote."
Feng Lingxi's tone was extremely cold, with no room for negotiation. She knew Du Gu Yu wasn't a good person, and she hadn't told Du Gu Cheng about it.
At least she had to let Dugu City know about her current situation and circumstances. Otherwise, while he was looking for her mother, he would also worry about her safety.
"Are you sure my queen won't be harmed"
Feng Lingxi gave him a cold glance and said, "That depends on the efficiency of the Third Prince. Her life is in your hands."
獨孤宇氣憤地握緊拳頭，對上風淩兮冷若冰霜的眼眸，“好，本王這就派人通知他，你彆給本王耍花招。”
Looking at Dugu Yu's departing figure, Xiaoli hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, do you really think the Third Prince will bring the Fourth Prince here"
"Don't worry, Duke Dugong has deep feelings for the Third Princess. Just look at his attitude." Although her methods are a bit despicable, this is all because Duke Dugong forced her, she had no choice but to resort to such measures.
"As all of you are infatuated, why must you make things difficult for my Lord Wang"
These days, the King must have been terrified. The Princess knew how important the King was to the Queen, she had known it ever since the Queen's fall from the cliff. This time, the King was probably going to be driven to collapse.
As Xiao Li said, Duguo City, who hadn't closed his eyes for three days and three nights, still didn't give up searching for his mother and Feng Ling Xi. He could be said to have turned the entire capital upside down, but there was still no news of them.
Ye Xi looked at the king's bloodshot eyes with concern and advised, "Your Highness, why don't you take a rest for a while The princess will be fine, and the imperial consort will be fine too. Empress Cen has given the order, and they will definitely find them."
Dugu Cheng watched the incense pilgrims coming and going up the mountain. Among these crowds, he only wanted to find his mother and Xi'er. At least this way he would know who had taken them and whether they were safe.
"Master Siddhartha, the Abbot requests your presence."
The young novice monk stepped forward. Upon hearing that the abbess wished to see him, Dugu City hurried over. The abbess looked at the bloodshot eyes in Dugu City's gaze and said, "Amitabha Buddha, Four Kings Guard Your Body Well."
Dugu Cheng saw that the abbot's forehead wound had improved considerably, and he spoke, "Master Abbot, did you summon me to have something to say"
The Abbot took out a small box and handed it to him, “This is what Lady Shu left with me. She said that if something happened to her, I should give it to the Fourth Prince.”
Upon hearing the word "incident," Dugu City's heart skipped a beat. "Master, does 'incident' refer to being kidnapped this time"
The Abbot shook his head. “I don’t know, these days I heard people in the temple say that Lord Siwang hasn’t eaten or drunk for days looking for Lady Shu Tai and Lady Si Wang’s whereabouts. The old monk can only leave this to you. As for the rest, the old monk is truly powerless.”
Dugu Cheng looked at the box in his hand, why would his mother give this box to the Master Abbot
"Master, when did my mother entrust this box to you"
"When she came here this time, she entrusted the old monk with keeping this box, saying that if anything happened to her, it would be passed on to the Fourth King."
Thank you, Master.
Du Gu Cheng opened the box and saw a folded blood-red letter inside. His body trembled as he unfolded it, discovering that it was his father's handwriting. It detailed how Du Gu Yan and Empress Cen had poisoned him, ordering him to eliminate this traitorous son and depose Empress Cen, granting him the throne in her place.
Dugu City looked at those words written in blood, as if he saw his father emperor, weak and using all his strength to write this letter before his death, the coldness in his eyes was piercing.
"Amitabha Buddha, Four Heavenly Kings, may this old monk have a word"
獨孤城回過神，連忙道，“大師請講。”
"The time is not yet right, do not act rashly."
Du Gu Cheng looked at the Abbot, nodding. "This King understands, thank you for the reminder, Master."
The abbot nodded at him, "Go for a walk, perhaps you'll have unexpected gains."
Dugu Cheng bowed and came out from the abbot's chamber. Ye Xi saw Wangye's furious expression and hurriedly soothed him, "Your Highness, the abbot is right, the time is not yet ripe. Your Highness should not act rashly. Right now, the most important thing is to find Shu Taifei and the Madam."
Dugu City didn't make a sound, striding towards the mountain path. A wish strip tied to the Wishing Tree fell and stuck to his face. Ye Xi saw this and rushed forward to take it down, but when she glanced at the words on it, she exclaimed, "Your Majesty, isn't this the wish strip written by the Crown Princess"
