Chapter 407: Revenge 51

ather, he would naturally take good care of her, just like his own daughter.Feng Lingxi knew that Huangfu Qingyun was good to Wan'er, and she also knew that she owed the child.It's only because she di...Hearing that Cen Tai had bound her and her family together, Feng Lingxi felt a strong aversion in her heart, but she couldn't afford to turn against him openly.

After all, Feng Aotian is still her father.

"Your Majesty, if you truly wish to choose someone, this servant believes that Concubine Long is more suitable than Concubine Xi."

Empress Cen narrowed her eyes, "Oh, tell this old woman why it's her. Is it because Feng Yu Xi and you didn't get along well, so you chose Princess Long"

"Everything has its order, from first to last, from elder to younger. Longhui Consort entered the palace before Xigui Consort and was her elder sister. Whether in dealing with the world or interacting within the palace, she was slightly superior to Xigui Consort."

"The Imperial Noble Consort, you say she is so good This humble one has not noticed it."

Queen Cen's words made Feng Lingxi's expression gradually turn cold. Her beautiful eyes swept over the Empress Dowager's thoughtful gaze, "Xi Guifei would stop at nothing to achieve her goals. In the past, she pushed me off a cliff for the position of Guifei. How can the Empress Dowager know that in the future, she might not remove the Empress Dowager from her position as the mistress of this palace"

"She dares!"

Queen Cen had never particularly liked Feng Yuxi's wrists, and now that Feng Lingxi had said this, she felt even more displeased with Feng Yuxi, even disgusted.

"Your Majesty Dowager, what if she truly dared to Does Your Majesty Dowager regret it only now, after all this time"

"You may withdraw now, I'm weary."

Empress Cen's voice was irritable, she gestured for Feng Lingxi to step back, then narrowed her eyes and continued to meditate.

Wind Lingxi left Shou'an Palace. When she passed by Fengyi Palace, she saw the cold and desolate palace. This once magnificent Fengyi Palace was now even colder than a deserted palace. The Empress was too foolish. She ended her own life for a man. Even though the women in the harem were indignant on her behalf, who would remember her once the new empress moved in

Letting out a soft sigh, Feng Lingxi walked towards the direction of leaving the palace.

"Where is the Fourth Princess going"

Feng Yu Xi was walking towards her with a maid, dressed in fine attire. Her face was flushed, not at all like someone who had been beaten. Instead, she looked smug and triumphant, infuriating anyone who saw her.

Feng Lingxi's brow furrowed slightly. With the Empress having just passed away, her attire was a clear disrespect. It was appalling that no one in the palace dared to stop her. Truly disheartening.

"How is it, seeing this imperial concubine and yet you do not bow"

Feng Yu Xi walked before her, her red lips curled into a sneer, her beautiful eyes swirling, and her folding fan gently swaying in her hand. "Feng Ling Xi, today this concubine wants to tell you, now the harem is masterless, after this, if you want to bully others with your power, I'm afraid it won't be possible anymore."

"Taking advantage of someone's weakness"

Feng Lingxi heard her description and couldn't help but sneer, "If it's about wielding power, shouldn't it be the Empress Dowager using her influence to bully you"

"You..."

Feng Yu Xi's face turned ashen at her words, but she quickly regained her composure, a cold sneer playing on her lips. "Feng Ling Xi, do you really think the Empress Dowager sees you as a partner All she wants are the treasures of the Yao Clan. If you weren't somewhat useful, would you even be here talking to me"

"Even Xi Gui Fei knows I still have some use, why are you so arrogant and talking to me like this Don't you fear that I will slap you with the Empress Dowager's power"

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, raised her hand, and made a gesture to hit her. Feng Yuxi instinctively took several steps back, but she heard Feng Lingxi's mocking smile, "That's it, you still want to fight with me, Feng Yuxi That's all you've got"

"Feng Lingxi, don't be too arrogant, this is the palace."

Feng Yu Xi's entire body trembled with anger, looking at Feng Ling Xi's expression, she really wanted to slap her.

“Didn’t I say it right Feng Yu Xi, don't you forget how your noble consort position came to be. It was by pushing me into the cliff! Others may not know what you did, but would I not Since I'm back, this empress position, you better forget about it.”

"Silence yourself, wretch."

Feng Yu rushed up and wanted to cover Feng Ling Xi's mouth. Her voice was so loud, what if someone heard it and it reached the emperor's ears Would she still have a position as empress

Feng Ling flashed past her touch, provokingly saying, "If you have the ability, cover everyone's mouths. Otherwise, sooner or later I will make you regret it."

As the evening wind howled and rain lashed down, Feng Yu Xi struck out with a slap. Feng Ling Xi didn't dodge. The blow landed squarely on her face, leaving five crimson fingermarks that stunned Feng Yu Xi. How could she not have dodged With her agility just moments ago, she could have easily evaded the attack.

"Feng Ling Xi, why don't you dodge"

Wind and Rain asked at dusk, her eyes bloodshot, staring at her own palms. She met Feng Lingxi's cold smile and a chill rose from her feet. A sense of foreboding filled Wind and Rain with panic.

"Your Highness, what is this"

Du Ganyi just came out of court and saw this scene. His originally handsome face was as dark as water. Feng Yuxi heard Du Ganyi's voice and hurriedly walked over to greet him, a charming smile appearing on his beautiful face.

"Your Majesty, this servant was just playing with the Fourth Princess and I hope I haven't disturbed you."

"Just messing around"

Dugu Yanyun's eyebrows shot up as she looked at the slap mark on Feng Lingxi's face, but saw Feng Lingxi speak, "Xi Gui's tantrum was a lesson. This slap came with a ringing in my ears. She deserves to be queen, ruthless and unforgiving."

"Become Queen"

Wind and Rain did not expect Feng Ling Xi to say such things, her face changed drastically, and she hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, please don't listen to her nonsense. How dare I covet the position of Empress These are all deliberate provocations from the Fourth Princess Consort, who wants to sow discord between me and Your Majesty."

"Outside, she's ruthless and fierce, but inside, she's pitifully delicate and heartbreaking. No wonder she's known as Xi Gui Fei, truly captivating. It's no surprise that she could say this slap was just a joke."

Feng Lingxi glanced at Dugu Yan, "Your Majesty, I have something else to attend to, so I won't disturb you and Empress Xi."

"Hold on."

Dugu Yan stepped forward, watching Feng Lingxi walk away without looking back. She stood in front of her, staring at the clear palm prints on her face, "Did you mean everything you said"

"Could it be that Your Majesty thinks I'm well-fed with nothing to do, and would willingly slap myself in the face with five finger marks"

Feng Lingxi coldly swept over Feng Yu Xi, “Since Your Majesty trusts Noble Consort Xi, why bother asking me”

"Your Majesty, I truly didn't mean to. She deliberately provoked me, saying that I wasn't brave enough to hit her and that she was protected by the Empress Dowager. She intentionally angered me, which led to me hitting her out of frustration."

Dugu Yan looked at Feng Lingxi, "I want you to hit her back with the same force she used."

Feng Yu Xi's face changed drastically, she hurriedly knelt down and pleaded, "Your Majesty, this servant knows her mistake. Please, Your Majesty, show mercy and spare this servant this once."

Feng Lingxi glanced at her own palm, and suddenly smiled coldly, "Although I'm a little moved, but thinking about letting my hand hit her, I feel sorry for my hand. Your Majesty might as well pretend that nothing happened and cultivate a good relationship with your future empress."

"Who said I would make her empress" eyes, thinking that this matter had been investigated, and he was just waiting for Feng Aotian to return to Beijing."Lord Chen, I have something I would like to ask, but I don't know if it is appropr...
