Chapter 354: Seizing Power 109

expression, "Is this King's mansion not good Why is the Fourth Princess so eager to go back Didn't this King say that Shu Taifei has already returned to the mansion"What do you mean by that, Third Kin...Feng Linglong's face flushed with a mix of red and white, gritting her teeth as she glared at Feng Lingxi. Her fists clenched tightly, but she still tried to maintain a smile on her face.

"Your Majesty, the nanny above has committed an unforgivable transgression against Princess Yaohua. Please, Your Majesty, punish her accordingly."

When Dugu Yan heard Feng Linglong's words, her handsome brows furrowed slightly. This Yao Hua Princess was truly unwilling to suffer any losses. Such a domineering woman, if she entered the palace, I'm afraid no one in the inner court would be able to control her. With her temperament, I'm afraid all the concubines in the harem would be tormented to death by her.

It seems I'll have to target Dugu City then.

"Princess Yaohua, don't worry, I will punish this old woman severely. Just stay at ease in the palace."

Feng Ling Xi turned and looked at Du Gu Yan, seeing that he still wanted her to stay. She smiled brightly.

"Then many thanks, Your Majesty. Yao Hua will stay here for a few more days."

Dugu Yan instructed Feng Linglong, "Princess Yaohua is in the palace these days. Concubine Long, you accompany her around."

"This servant obeys."

Feng Linglong's complexion was a bit unsightly. The Emperor entrusted Yao Hua Princess to her. This wasn't something to be trifled with; even the slightest misstep could lead to disaster. Such a woman, given to her, Feng Linglong felt flustered inside, her mind already racing with how to handle her.

Then I'll trouble Princess Ronggui to accompany me.

Feng Lingxi watched as Feng Linglong forced a smile at her. That look was clearly unwilling, but Feng Lingxi ignored it.

Feng Linglong accompanied her, always better than the other concubines accompanying her.

"Princess Yaohua, you are too kind."

Feng Lingxi, seeing her awkward smile, laughed and said, "Just call me Princess Yao Hua, Your Highness. In the palace, I hope you will take good care of me."

Feng Linglong stiffly smiled in response, while Dugu Yan watched the two of them like this and said to Feng Lingxi, “Princess Yao Hua, you and Noble Consort Long go.”

"Yao Hua has retired."

Feng Lingxi was so happy, she pulled Feng Linglong out. Feng Linglong had never been to the palace before, and almost tripped over being dragged by Feng Lingxi. Even so, she didn't dare complain, she could only shout, "Princess Yao Hua, slow down."

Feng Lingxi dragged Feng Linglong to the Imperial Garden. Ignoring Empress Yun Gui and the Empress, who were admiring the flowers there, they looked at each other with different expressions.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Princess YaoHua has entered the palace. Was she just with Empress LongGui"

The Empress glanced at Feng Ling Xi and said calmly, "Fourth Prince has rejected the marriage. From now on, Princess Yao Hua will be a member of this palace. Noble Consort Yun, you should treat Princess Yao Hua well. The Empress Mother greatly values Princess Yao Hua. If anything were to happen to her, the Empress Mother would be displeased."

Impliedly, this was someone the Empress Dowager had her eye on. Any little thoughts or resentments Lady Yun had better keep to herself.

Just like the position of empress, even if all the concubines in the harem desire it, this position can only be hers. If they want this position, they have to see if they are qualified.

Queen Gui accompanied her smile, "Her Majesty is right. However, Princess Yao Hua specifically requested to marry the Fourth Prince. If she were to enter the palace, wouldn't the princess be unwilling Moreover, I heard that Princess Yao Hua enjoys alchemy and wherever she goes, nothing grows. She also likes to find people to test her poisons. Wouldn't Your Majesty be worried about the harem being disrupted by her"

The Empress plucked a flower and with her phoenix eyes, she swept over Guifei Yun's calculating gaze. She said softly, "Guifei Yun, whether Princess Yaohua resides in the palace is something neither I nor you can control. Just like this flower, whether it blooms peacefully or not is not up to its own choosing."

Concubine Yun looked at the flowers that the Empress had broken. The Empress was warning her. Now that the Empress was favored, it seemed she had to bear with it and wait for a better time to speak.

The Empress rose to her feet and left. Yun Gui, the concubine, hurried after her. Seeing Feng Linglong taking Yaohua Princess to the Imperial Garden, she thought it was best to stay away from them. Out of sight, out of mind, as they say, to avoid any trouble.

Feng Ling Xi saw that the Empress and Yun Gui Fei were about to leave, so she hurriedly grabbed Feng Ling Long and asked, "Noble Consort Ling Long, why did those two people want to leave when they saw this princess Who are they"

"That is the Empress and the noble concubine Yun."

Feng Ling Xi heard this, hurriedly pulling Feng Ling Long towards the Empress and Yun Gui Fei. Looking at Feng Ling Xi who blocked their way, the Empress's expression didn't change much, but Yun Gui Fei, on the other hand, looked disdainful. What kind of rude woman like this would even dare to enter the palace

"Your Majesty the Empress, Concubine Yun."

"This servant greets Your Majesty the Empress, and bids greetings to Imperial Concubine Yun."

After Feng Linglong bowed, Feng Lingxi hurried to ask, "Noble Consort Long, you are also a Noble Consort, and she is also a Noble Consort. Why do you still have to greet her"

Lady Yun's face darkened. Such a lack of decorum, I truly wonder how the Court of Aohua could send such a princess for this betrothal. It's embarrassing.

"Princess Yaohua, this..."

Feng Linglong didn't know how to tell her this. Saying it would be disrespectful to both the Empress and Gui Fei Yun. In the current situation, she certainly didn't want to lose to Shen Yun, that despicable woman.

"Princess Yao Hua, this palace has heard that you are skilled in the art of alchemy and poison-making. Would you be willing to come to this palace's inner hall and speak with me about your expertise"

"Can I"

Feng Ling's eyes lit up. This empress was still as pleasing to the eye as she had been back then. Unlike them, with smiles on their faces, they were all calculating against her in secret.

Of course.

Feng Lingxi hurried to follow the Empress to her Fengyi Palace. Feng Linglong and Yun Guifei also followed, watching as the Empress treated Feng Lingxi so well, greeting her warmly. Both of them felt uneasy, fearing that after this Yao Hua princess entered the palace and joined forces with the Empress, there would be no place for them in the harem.

"This palace heard that Princess Yaohua likes alchemy, I wonder if she also has knowledge of medicine"

The Empress spoke, and Feng Lingxi's eyes lit up. "Yes! Could it be that the Empress also practices medicine"

"This palace won't, but the Fourth Royal Consort will."

When the Empress spoke, her eyes were fixed on Feng Lingxi, and her expression had changed noticeably. This was when Feng Lingxi realized that the former Crown Princess and the current Empress were completely different people. This probing question was indeed beyond her expectations.

Fortunately, I disguised myself. Otherwise, this Empress might have recognized me.

"Could the Fourth Royal Consort practice medicine"

Feng Lingxi feigned surprise and hurriedly asked, “Is her medical skill impressive This princess wants to compare with her. Is it this princess's poison art that is superior, or her medical skill”

If the princess could serve the Fourth Prince together with the Fourth Princess Consort, there would definitely be a chance.

Feng Lingxi only then understood the Empress's meaning. It seemed she wanted Feng Lingxi and the Fourth Princess to serve Dugu Cheng together. It seemed to be Dugu Yan's idea, asking her to advise Yao Hua to make Dugu Cheng compromise and marry Princess Yao Hua.

“What Her Majesty means is that she wants Yao Hua and Feng Ling Xi to serve the Fourth Prince together. This isn’t impossible, but this princess is a princess of the Aohua dynasty. This princess deserves the position of principal wife. If Feng Ling Xi is willing to be a concubine, then this princess will agree to have her serve alongside.” of business to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."The Empress watched her son look at Feng Lingxi, and recalling what Feng Lingxi had said, she still wanted to help her son. However, Feng Lingxi...
