Chapter 387: Revenge 31

mbling. After Li Guanjia finished wiping him, he hurriedly pushed Du Gu Su into the room.Feng Lingxi and Du Gu Cheng followed suit. Li Guanjia held a thick quilt and covered it on Du Gu Su's body. The...When you showed it to Empress Cen back then, did you pay attention

Feng Ling xi shook her head, if she had paid attention, she wouldn't have asked like that.

Yao Wan'ying frowned, "Regardless of whether it was truly Shen Yun who did this, after you enter the palace today, give Zi Xing to Empress Dowager Cen. As for the rest, I believe Tai Fei Shu will have a plan."

Wind Lingxi responded and tidied herself up. She then had Huangfu Qingyun and 'Yao Hua' escort her before the Empress Dowager. Standing before the Empress Dowager, Wind Lingxi caught the Empress Dowager's gaze on Princess 'Yao Hua'.

"Yao Hua, you and your imperial brother go back first. Leave Feng Ling Xi to me. I will speak with her and let her out of the palace when I am done."

'Yaohua' glanced at Feng Lingxi and hurriedly said, "Mother, Yaohua has already spoken to her."

"Go on."

Empress Cen waved her hand, signaling 'Yao Hua' to leave. The moment she saw Feng Ling Xi, Empress Cen's entire attention was on her. With the coveted Zi Xing so close at hand, she had no intention of paying any attention to Princess 'Yao Hua'.

Huangfu Qingyun tugged on 'Yao Hua's sleeve, signaling her to leave.

Feng Lingxi saw that they had all left, and she met Empress Cen's deep gaze. She couldn't help but sneer, "Empress, you are truly skilled. In the end, they still brought me before you."

"Feng Lingxi, is this how you speak to this empress"

Then Empress Cen's voice turned cold, and she was enraged. The palace maids and eunuchs inside were frightened and lowered their heads, not daring to breathe a word. The atmosphere was heavy with tension.

Feng Lingxi walked to the side and sat down, watching Empress Cen's angry expression, she smirked, "Empress, now there are only the two of us. What do you want, and what do I want, everyone has a number in their hearts. Why not sit down and have a good talk You use your status as Empress to pressure me, if I am unhappy, do you think I would give Zi Xing to you"

"Aren't you afraid I'll have you killed"

Feng Lingxi dared to threaten her. Empress Cen's eyes towards Feng Lingxi were covered with a layer of killing intent, but she saw Feng Lingxi smile.

That blinding smile made her furious, wanting to kill her, she truly loathed Feng Lingxi's mocking grin. She was the Empress, how could she tolerate such insolence

Her eyes lifted slightly, the mocking smile playing on her lips only deepened the murderous intent in Cen Taihou's eyes.

"Aren't you going to offer me some tea As the saying goes, a guest is always welcomed with a cup of tea. It helps moisten the throat and continue the conversation."

Feng Lingxi didn't answer her question. Looking at Empress Cen's eager desire for Zixing now, she suddenly didn't want to just give it to her. After all, it was not easy for her to leave the palace today, so why should she wrong herself.

"Wind, I can kill you right now."

"Then you'll never get your hands on the Purple Star, let alone the treasures of the Yao Clan."

Feng Lingxi remained calm and composed, showing not the slightest fear at Empress Cen's threat.

Although her life and death were in her own hands, Cen Taizi's life and death were also ultimately in her hands.

She is no longer the murderer who poisoned the former emperor. She is innocent and fearless.

It's her who just started, and she's already been driven to anger by this. That's no fun at all.

"Here, have some tea."

Empress Cen pressed down on the anger in her heart. This Feng Lingxi knew she wanted the treasures of the Yao Clan, this reminded her of what she had said before, the treasures of the Yao Clan could only be opened if Feng Lingxi didn't die. However, even if she couldn't kill her, she wouldn't let her have an easy time.

"The tea arrived. Feng Lingxi held the cup, took a sip, moistened her throat, and looked at Empress Cen's eyes that seemed to want to kill her. She spoke slowly."

"I can give you the Purple Star, but, there are conditions."

Feng Lingxi raised her legs, a gleam of calculation in her beautiful eyes that made Empress Cen let out a cold snort.

"Feng Ling Xi, what qualifications do you have to bargain with this Empress"

"As the Saintess of the Yao Clan and the Master of Zi Xing, Empress Dowager, I know you want to kill me. But don't blame me for not warning you, even if you kill me and obtain Zi Xing, you won't be able to open the treasures of the Yao Clan. If the treasures of my Yao Clan were simply obtained by obtaining Zi Xing, they would have been stolen long ago. How could they still be in the Yao Clan Am I right"

Feng Lingxi's confession made Empress Cen narrow her eyes. She hadn't expected Feng Lingxi to actually admit her identity, let alone reveal all the information she had found before, and brazenly tell her the secret of opening the Yaozu treasure.

"Why should I believe your words You have no proof. Just because you say you are the Saintess of Yao Clan, should I believe you"

Feng Lingxi sneered, her beautiful eyes swept across the questioning look on her face, and said lightly, "The Empress Dowager knows it herself. There is no need for me to say more. These years, you have not investigated the Yao Clan's affairs less. You wouldn't even know these basic things, would you"

Empress Cen was so enraged by this sarcasm that her face turned pale. She had investigated for so long, and only now did the truth become clear. All those useless people she had sent out before were nothing but lazy good-for-nothing who took their pay without doing any work. Now that Feng Lingxi had personally admitted it, Empress Cen would definitely not let such a good opportunity slip away.

“Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to remind Empress Dowager that if you're unsure about anything, you can ask Dugu Xiu. He's colluding with traitors from my Yao clan. The traitor's grandfather was an elder of my Yao clan, so he must know many secrets about us.”

Feng Lingxi gazed at the coldness in Cen Taishi's eyes, a deeper smile playing on her lips.

"Seems like even the Empress Dowager can be deceived by her own son. This Dugu Xiu seems to be very displeased with you. Otherwise, how could he keep such important news from you."

Cen Taizi, unable to bear her sarcasm and ridicule, reprimanded her sternly, "Feng Lingxi, shut your mouth for me! Don't pester me with nonsense."

"What does the Empress Dowager mean I've laid out the terms. Whether or not to cooperate is up to the Empress Dowager."

Feng Lingxi was twirling her fingers, and the air of having everything under control made Empress Cen grit her teeth with anger. She never expected to be outsmarted by Feng Lingxi.

"Aren't you afraid the Empress will destroy the Yao Clan"

Feng Lingxi let out a snort of laughter, looking at Empress Cen with a mocking expression. "I'm saying, Empress, do you know where the Yao Clan is Don't even say that you could investigate it. Even members of the Yao Clan don't know where the entrance to their clan is. The fact that the Yao Clan has been able to exist mysteriously until now, do you think there isn't some ability to withstand everyone's prying eyes on the Yao Clan's treasures"

Feng Ling xi shakes her head, this intelligence is truly worrying.

Queen Cen watched Feng Lingxi's cold sarcasm, the anger in her heart gradually subsided. She couldn't speak to Feng Lingxi with hostility, otherwise, she would be led by her nose. This woman, Feng Lingxi, was indeed extraordinary.

"Didn't expect you to grow so cunning after falling off the cliff."

"All this thanks to the Empress Dowager and my eldest sister, who would stop at nothing for the position of貴妃. If it weren't for you two, I wouldn't have known I had such an impressive identity. Looking back, I should really thank you both."

Feng Lingxi took another sip of tea and met Cen Taihou's thoughtful gaze. The coldness in her eyes intensified.is king, and this king will let bygones be bygones. How about it"He was nodding his head vigorously, like a chick pecking at grain."You should be familiar with Mo Bing who left my side, right"When it...
