e mountains. The Yao tribe probably isn't as indifferent to worldly affairs as rumors suggest."Lord, the Grand Elder has summoned you to dine in the Hall of Feasts this evening.""Are you with the ten...After being empress dowager for so many years, she truly has become more and more like herself, even making such shameless demands.
They are the children of the Heavenly Prince, they should be raised by the Heavenly Prince. Why, are you unwilling
The Empress Dowager's voice was filled with displeasure. Looking into Feng Lingxi's cold eyes, she knew this woman wouldn't be so easy to talk to. How could her grandson follow by her side In the future, the Jiangshan of the Great Yuan Dynasty would all belong to them.
She had worked hard for so many years, how could she let Feng Lingxi ruin her plans.
“Your Majesty, when did I ever say that these two children were the children of the Prince of Chen When I left five years ago, I was not pregnant. Five years later, I returned with two children, and Your Majesty then claimed they were the Prince of Chen’s children. Your Majesty is not afraid of this impure bloodline, making people laugh”
"What do you mean by that They aren't Cheng'er's children, who else could they be Do you think you can deceive me"
The Empress Dowager grew angrier with each glance at Feng Lingxi. The more she looked, the more she disliked her. She couldn't understand why she had agreed to let this woman into the palace in the first place. This expression of hers was truly repulsive.
"When the Empress heard this, she said, 'This child is mine. I won't give him to anyone.'"
Feng Lingxi showed no fear in her face, "If the Empress Dowager wants the crown prince to have another son with the King of Chen, so be it. This Duke's manor is vast, and beauties abound in the Great Yuan Dynasty. There is no shortage of princes. And my children, Feng Lingxi’s children, none shall dare to take them away."
Feng Lingxi finished speaking, ignoring the Empress Dowager's face turning ashen with anger. He boldly continued, "Also, I met assassins on my way back to the Great Yuan Dynasty. I still want to remind the Empress Dowager not to go too far. Times have changed."
"You..."
The Empress Dowager's face was ashen, her finger pointing at Feng Ling Xi, struggling to control her emotions. She knew this would happen. All these years, every time she thought of what Feng Ling Xi had done, turning her son into his current state, she felt a surge of rage.
"I've said all I wanted to say. Empress Dowager, please take care of yourself. I won't disturb you further. Farewell."
Feng Lingxi was about to leave when the Empress Dowager angrily banged on the table and shouted, "Feng Lingxi, stop right there!"
"What else does the Empress have to say"
Feng Lingxi turned around, her eyes like ice. There was no longer the respect she once had for the Empress Dowager. Seeing the contents of her imperial edict, wanting to take away her child, she realized that she had already lost the opportunity to be respected.
She could allow her former daughter-in-law to bring the children to visit her, and even let them call her grandmother. But she would not allow her to use this way to take her children away from her side.
This child was born to her, Feng Ling Xi. Why does she want to take it away with just one word
Shu Taizi's furious gaze met Feng Lingxi's as she turned away. The instant their eyes locked, her anger subsided. Feng Lingxi was enraged. It seemed she intended to use her status to bargain with Shu Taizi.
"I want to tell you, these two children are Cheng'er's. I have investigated, and you have already admitted it in public. The Chen王府 cannot be without an heir. Since you are already the princess of Xi Guó, how can you marry with two children I am doing this for your own good."
Then, Empress Shutai softened her tone and spoke with a more conciliatory air, appealing to their emotions.
"You should know that it's not easy for a woman to marry into a good family in her lifetime. Now that your status is different, as long as you marry alone, you won't worry about living a bad life, will you"
Feng Lingxi sneered, raising her eyes to meet the empress dowager's genuine gaze. It was as if she were doing it for her own good.
"Whether I marry or not, it's none of your concern. The imperial family will take care of me. Besides, even if I were to remarry, with my current status, there wouldn't be a man who wouldn't accept me. What's more, isn't the Crown Prince of this chaotic summer dynasty courting me If I truly wanted to marry, why would he mind if I brought children"
Feng Lingxi's words made the Empress Dowager anxious, "This is the child of Cheng'er. You take him away, let them be bullied in a foreign land and always look down upon "
"Why would I be inferior How could my child, Feng Ling Xi, ever be inferior"
Feng Lingxi looked at the Empress Dowager with cold eyes, "Empress Dowager, forgive my rudeness, but your words today are truly unsatisfactory. You want me to give you my child, no matter how you say it, I will not agree. Feng Lingxi can choose not to marry in this lifetime, but my children, not one will I let go."
"Don't you truly consider, what conditions do you want Just say it."
The Empress Dowager held back her anger, looking at Feng Lingxi's current state. She knew that confronting her head-on was impossible.
Feng Ling Xi pondered for a moment, lowered her head and smiled faintly. She then raised her eyes to meet Tai Hou's anxious gaze, and asked in a calm tone, "Are there any conditions"
"As long as I can do it, anything is possible."
My terms are not difficult, I only want my child.
"Wind soars!"
The Empress Dowager was enraged, her gaze fixed on the smile playing at the corner of her lips. She gritted her teeth and asked, "I ask you again, do you truly not want to give the child back to Cheng'er"
Feng Ling Xi’s smile disappeared from her face, and she corrected him again in a cold voice, “Empress Dowager, the child has always been mine. Empress Dowager, instead of thinking about my child so much, you might as well urge Prince Chen to have more children quickly while he is young. Maybe he could even have ten or eight! Besides, hasn’t the Empress Dowager given him many wives and concubines over the years There’s no need to worry about my child.”
If not for the previous assassination attempt and this imperial decree, Feng Lingxi thought she wouldn't have gone to such extremes. Now she doesn't even want to let her see her child. The power in the harem truly changes a person. The current Empress Dowager is so foreign that she is frightening, no longer the mother whom she knew. She doesn't know what she has experienced, perhaps it was the temptation of power.
After all, this Empress Dowager of the Yuan Dynasty, the most esteemed woman, held supreme power and status, possessing everything one could desire.
"Your Majesty, the Clan Chief has arrived."
The old man at the gate came in to report. Hearing that Luoli had arrived, Feng Lingxi was somewhat surprised. This Luoli and the Empress Dowager had this kind of relationship
"Your Majesty, I've said all that I needed to. I won't disturb you further."
Feng Lingxi turned and left. Walking outside the hall, she saw Li Wuyan, who had come with Luoli, waiting there. Their eyes met, Feng Lingxi nodded, and walked past them.
"Xier, how did you get here"
Li Wuyan stopped Feng Lingxi and quickly stepped forward, "I came with Luoli. He went in to see the Empress Dowager, let me say a few words to you."
Feng Lingxi glanced at Luoli, he gave her a cold look, then went into the palace, already strange like he had become a different person.
Feng Lingxi sighed, this time truly changes people, Shu Taizi so, Luo Li is also so.
"Luoli was in a bad mood, don't mind her."
Li Wuyan explained to Luo Li, his forlorn eyes reminding Feng Lingxi of Feng Yu Xi's words. She nodded slightly.
"Just say what you want to say."
From then on, I don't know if there will be another chance.back to the Empress Dowager, everything is well. Thank you for your concern, Empress Dowager."Feng Lingxi respectfully replied, her attitude still proper, making the Empress Dowager's eyes well up wit...
