e among women, a perfect match for our King.”Feng Lingxi, listening to their words, felt more and more uneasy. How did she feel that they seemed to misunderstand her"Just now, I was just changing the..."Well, that sounds like a workable solution."

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi without speaking, his eyes full of worry, "Ling'er, are you still worried about something"

Feng Lingxi furrowed her brow, "Brother Emperor, while what you say can certainly save my life and stop Empress Cen from pursuing me, does that mean Princess Yao Hua's marriage proposal will be off"

"Do you want to marry Dugu City as Princess Yao Hua"

Huangpu Qingyun saw her shake her head, truly not understanding what she was thinking.

"Queen Cen is a clever woman. Even if she wants Purple Star, she wouldn't let us manipulate her. If she knew that opening the treasure required my blood, perhaps it could wash away my injustice, but at the same time, she wouldn't need to ally with Xia Dynasty and wouldn't need Du Gu City as much."

"What's a better way, Naxia"

Feng Lingxi thought for a moment, "I think I should go to Empress Cen's side and wait for an opportunity."

Perhaps, to clear her name, she would have to resort to some means.

Yao Hua Princess's identity and marriage to Du Gu Cheng, once Cen Taizi knows, she will find out that Yao Hua Princess is her. Who knows what kind of storm it will cause Without absolute certainty, she would be playing with people's lives, which she couldn't do. Perhaps, she could only try this method.

"You're crazy."

Huangfu Qingyun objected, "Don't you know how much Empress Cen wants to kill you You run to her face to deliver yourself"

"Have Dugu City take me to Empress Cen's side."

Feng Lingxi's words made Dugu Cheng frown, "What you mean, Xi'er, is to go to the Empress Dowager's side as Princess Yao Hua and have her teach you, giving you a chance to stay by her side"

"Fourth Wang Ye refuses to marry Princess Yao Hua, the Emperor and Empress Dowager will both try to find a way for you to marry Princess Yao Hua. No matter what request you make, the Empress Dowager and Dugu Yan will prioritize it, and I will be able to get to the Empress Dowager's side smoothly. Once I am by her side, I will have an opportunity."

"That's not appropriate," Huangfu Qingyun hurriedly said, "Princess Yao Hua is a princess of alliance, how can she be led by the nose"

"It is precisely because I won't be led around by the nose that I have security in the palace. If Princess Yao Hua truly wants to marry the Fourth Prince, she can go to the Empress Dowager's side and receive guidance, it wouldn't be impossible. As long as she's by the Empress Dowager's side, I will have an opportunity."

Feng Lingxi's eyes narrowed, a coldness in her gaze that made Dugu Cheng furrow his brow. "Xier," he asked, "what do you plan to do"

"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."

Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes swept across Dugu City, "As for what happens next, we don't need to worry about it for now. We only need to take down the Empress Dowager. Then things will be easier to handle. Otherwise, even if Princess Yao Hua and Dugu City get married and hand Feng Lingxi over later on, we will still be at a disadvantage."

According to military strategy, capture the king first and you capture the thief. All calamities originate from the Empress Dowager. Cut off this source of calamity, and things become much simpler.

"Xi'er, are you trying to use poison"

Dugu Cheng frowned, “Do you know the consequences”

Feng Lingxi's eyes darkened slightly as she looked at Dugu City, her gaze becoming profound. "Are you afraid"

"I'm not afraid."

Dugu Cheng's eyes were full of determination, "Since Xi'er has decided, then I shall make the arrangements."

Feng Lingxi responded, " Empress Cen is living too well. Even Duke Gu Yan is a pawn in her hand. If we don't put some thought into dealing with her, we will be killed by her sooner or later." These days, she was inside the palace, and the Empress's situation wasn't good. Several noble consorts seemed to have a good life on the surface, but they were actually each with their own ulterior motives, living in fear and trembling. They were both resentful and afraid of the Empress Dowager. If something really happened to the Empress Dowager, they would be the happiest.

She had to take them down, one by one, none of them could escape.

“You've ruined our carefully laid plans, Xier! Now, if we can’t clear your name according to what you want, how am I supposed to explain this to the Emperor I think it’s best if you discuss this with the Holy Master first, so as not to anger him.”

I'll talk to my mother about it.

Feng Lingxi watched Huangfu Qingyun's anger, knowing he was worried about her safety. However, since they called each other siblings, she wouldn't drag him into danger.

"Older brother, if this marriage attempt fails this time, please go back and apologize to father on my behalf."

Huangfu Qingyun was feeling suffocated inside. "Nonsense, how could a marriage alliance fail Although the Arahsia Dynasty is not as powerful as the Dayuan Dynasty, it's still a mighty nation with strong soldiers. You being the princess of Arahsia represents your entire country. I won't let anyone bully you. Do whatever you want, don't worry. At worst, we'll go to war between the two countries."

Hearing what Huangpu Qingyun said, Feng Lingxi's heart felt warm. With such support, there was nothing she wouldn't dare to do.

Even so, she didn't want to actually cause a war between the two countries. Their return this time was nothing more than to clear her name of poisoning the emperor and bring down the empress dowager. She wouldn't let them down.

"Thank you, Brother Emperor."

"Don't thank me, we're family."

Hearing her thank him, Huangfu Qingyun wryly tugged at his lips. She always treated him as an outsider. Since she called him "brother-in-law," then they were a family. This brother-in-law wasn't for nothing.

Feng Lingxi rushed towards Huang Fu Qingyun, revealing a smile. "Brother Huang, I won't disappoint you."

Seeing the determination and confidence in her eyes, he would rather she disappoint him. The Xi'er after regaining her memories was no longer the one he knew. Even though he knew this, he couldn't help but be good to her. Even if she risked doing something, he would rather risk standing behind her.

Dugu City looked at them like this, he couldn't even feel jealous.

Now, Xier sees Huangfu Qingyun as an older brother. As Huangfu Qingyun's man, he shouldn't be so petty. Besides, Huangfu Qingyun has done so much for her, his heart shouldn't be so small.

"It's getting late, I should head back to rest. You guys continue chatting."

Huangfu Qingyun very courteously gave them the space, went out himself, closed the door for them, and left after taking a deep breath.

Once the decision to let go is made, Xi'er should be allowed to act without reservation. Don't dwell on what shouldn't be thought about.

Feng Lingxi watched Huangpu Qingyun's leaving figure for a long time before saying, "Dugu Cheng, I feel really sorry for him. He didn't need to take risks with us." As a princess, her identity was given to her by the Arah Xia Dynasty, but she couldn't give Huangpu Qingyun anything in return.

"If he was able to leave, he would have left long ago. Why would he wait until now"

Dugu Cheng spoke up, “Don’t think about it so much. Once you wash away your charges, he will be able to go back with peace of mind.” It was probably going to take a while for Huangfu Qingyun to let go completely, after all, his love for Xi'er ran deep, no less than his own. He just wasn’t as fortunate as him.

Feng Lingxi responded, "Do you want to go back It's getting late."

Dugu City grabbed her hand, his eyes filled with reluctance, "Xi'er, I don't want to leave, I want to stay and accompany you."know where to begin.She definitely doesn't want him to know about her miscarriage. No wonder she's been so preoccupied this time she came back. Something as big as this happened, and she didn't tell...
