this elsewhere."Feng Lingxi watched her leaving figure, following behind her with a wary expression.Whether or not what she just said was true or false, she had to be careful. No one could guarantee..."What was the Sixth Prince doing with poison"

Feng Lingxi glanced at Xiaoli, only to see Xiaoli's eyes widen in astonishment, "Could it be that he..."

Shhh!

Feng Lingxi made a gesture, Xiao Li hurriedly covered her mouth and shook her head violently. Only the shocked look in her eyes revealed the astonishment in her heart.

For Feng Lingxi, if Dugu Xiu didn't ask Xiao Li for these things, then she would have really wasted her time here making medicine.

"Xi'er, the Emperor is going to Tianqi Country tomorrow. Would you be interested in going with me"

"Have you taken care of everything regarding Bai Mo"

Seeing Dugu City nod, Feng Lingxi thought that it had been some time since she last saw Bai Xiadie, so she agreed to go to Tianqi Kingdom with Dugu City.

Since Bai Mo regained control of Tianqi Kingdom, he has been busy reorganizing the government. As a new emperor ascends the throne, there are naturally many things to deal with. Bai Xiadie, as the princess of Tianqi Kingdom, naturally returned to the palace with him. Time is flying, and it's about time to sign the alliance treaty.

The Heavenly Mandate Kingdom's Imperial Palace

Bai Mo personally welcomed Dugu City and Feng Lingxi into the palace to sign the alliance treaty. Now that the new emperor of Tianqi Kingdom has ascended the throne, Bai Mo, as the emperor, enjoys the support of the people. All he needs to do is deal with some of Li Shang's old subordinates.

Bai Xiaod ie therefore changed to 'Anping', Bai Mo also built a princess mansion for her, so that she would have a place to stay when she wanted to leave the palace.

Bai Mo Bai's affection for Bai Xiao Die transformed into sibling love. For Bai Xiao Die, this didn't bring about much change, but only Bai Mo Bai knew that this was all he could do for her.

Lan Zhan was conferred the title of Minister of State in Tianqi Nation, assisting the new emperor.

Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng entered the palace this time. They saw Bai Mo Bai and Bai Xiaodie. Besides their luxurious attire, there was no other change.

"Lord Four Kings, this is the alliance treaty. Take a look and see if there's anything you need to add or remove."

Bai Mo Bai presented the alliance agreement, Du Gu Cheng took it and said to Ye Xi behind him, "Go get the gift I gave the new emperor."

"Fourth King, you are too kind."

Bai Mo heard that Dugu City brought him a gift and immediately said, “This time Tianqi Kingdom was able to quell the internal rebellion, thanks to your and Fourth Princess’s help. Our siblings will always remember this.”

"Neither my king nor I have done anything. If we need to thank anyone, it should be your royal uncle, the Prince Regent, and the Prime Minister."

"This time, I'm truly grateful to the uncle and the Prime Minister. I'll keep it in my heart."

Feng Lingxi looked at Bai Mo's slightly furrowed brows and said with a smile, "You're already the emperor; you should change how you address yourself."

"Fourth Royal Wife, although I've become the emperor, I'm still Bai Mo Bai from before. I still don't like calling myself 'Your Majesty.'"

He, on the other hand, felt that being like the Fourth Princess, more carefree, wasn't a bad thing. After all, there was nothing wrong with trying something new.

"That's true."

Feng Lingxi looked at Bai Xiadie who was beside her, "Princess Xiadie, how have you been lately"

Bai Xiaod ie got up and bowed to Bai Mo, "Brother Huang, Xiaod ie wants to go for a walk in the Imperial Garden with Fourth Princess."

Bai Mo, though he had heard the term "elder brother" for a long time, felt a tightness in his chest when he heard it. He couldn't change this fact.

"Go."

Feng Lingxi leaned down and spoke a few words to Dugu City before following Bai Xiaod ie out.

In the imperial garden

Bai Xiaod ie's eyes fell on Feng Lingxi's abdomen, "I heard that the Fourth Royal Consort had a miscarriage the other day, what happened"

"Have all the messages arrived here" Feng Lingxi's brows furrowed slightly. Bai Xiaodai explained, "It was from the Sixth Prince's people. When we heard it, we were all shocked, but it wasn't something easy to ask about. Besides, with Your Highness just ascending the throne, there are many things that haven't been dealt with properly. Li Shang's former subordinates have always been resentful towards your brother, and we didn't dare to visit you."

"It's the same as a stand-in marriage."

Bai Xiaod ie nodded in understanding, a touch of surprise in her expression.

"Since the Fourth Royal Consort is well, then, what are her plans next"

"Dugu Xiu returned to the capital with his army, and there shouldn't be any major incidents for now. I might as well recuperate here, take this opportunity to rest and catch my breath."

Bai Xiaod ie's brows furrowed, "If the Sixth Prince goes back, why wouldn't the court allow you all to return"

"Our power is too great, the court would never agree to let us return."

Her only concern now was the safety of her mother and grandmother, and she didn't know what their situation was like.

"Xiaodai, there's one more thing I need you to help me with."

Feng Lingxi looked at Bai Xiadie and slowly spoke her intentions. Bai Xiadie responded, and the two discussed for a while before returning to the banquet. While Dugucheng and Baimo were there, they just drank alcohol and talked about irrelevant things. After the alliance was signed, they handed the agreement to the imperial court, and Dugucheng's task was complete.

I believe the next step is to have them return to the Yao clan to retrieve the treasure.

Only Feng Aotiān and Dugu Xiū have returned to the capital. If we really let them go back to retrieve the treasure, it would probably not be appropriate.

It only took three days for Dugu Xiu to return to the capital from his journey. Feng Ling Xi received news from the court that Shu Taifei was critically ill. The emperor granted permission for Dugu Cheng and Feng Ling Xi to return to the capital, and specifically ordered them to bring only a small contingent of soldiers, forbidding any large army from following.

Such a sudden situation, the first thing Feng Lingxi and Dugu City thought of was conspiracy. They wanted to wipe them all out this time after they went back.

News of the Empress Dowager Shu's critical illness is unclear whether true or false, but it is certain that she will return.

Dugu Cheng wrote a letter to Huangfu Qingyun of the Chao Dynasty, explaining the situation this time. Then he led a team back to the capital city. Whether the news was true or not, this trip back would definitely not be so simple.

By the time they returned to the capital, half a month had passed. Kyoto was already gripped by the chill of winter. When Dugu City and Feng Lingxi returned to the mansion, the desolation and emptiness of the place enraged Dugu City, causing him to clench his fists, his eyes radiating killing intent.

"Let's go see the Empress Dowager first."

Feng Lingxi gestured for Duguyan to stay calm. She had noticed it as soon as they entered: there were many people ambushing them. It seemed that the Four Kings' Mansion had been targeted long ago. Duguyan's actions were nothing more than a complete confrontation with Duguyan, wanting to get rid of him.

When the two arrived at Shutai's courtyard, all the maids and servants who usually attended to her had been replaced by unfamiliar faces. Seeing them, they hurriedly bowed and paid their respects.

"I have seen Fourth Master and Fourth Madam."

Where is Grandma Zhang

獨孤城 coldly questioned, looking at the blood-stained basins they were holding, a chill ran down his spine. "What's with this water"

"Your Majesty, this is the handkerchief stained with Empress Shu's blood from her coughing fit. I need to take it out and dispose of it."

"Let's go see how the Empress Dowager is doing first."

Feng Lingxi glanced at Dugu City and rushed into Shu Taifei's courtyard. Before she even stepped into the bedroom, she heard a series of coughs that made her face change drastically. Dugu City couldn't hold back any longer and rushed in.

"Mother!"

On the bed, Taifei Shu lay there, coughing violently. Her usually graceful and dignified face was now pale and bloodless, looking very sick. Hearing Dugu City's voice, she hurriedly waved to him, panting, "Go... go!"
