Chapter 361: Xin Ning's Background
Everything that happened to Feng Huailue today seemed to be planned by Feng Zhaolin.
But the Great Protector always felt that something was wrong. If Ruofeng Zhaolin was so powerful, how could he be tricked so easily?
But the current situation does not allow the Great Protector to think too much: "Your Highness, there are rumors spreading outside right now. You are confined to the mansion, so it is a good opportunity to avoid the limelight. When the emperor celebrates his birthday, there is no way he will not let you out."
"As for what's going on outside, I'll have to trouble the three guardians."
With the Black Mountain Underground Palace there, Feng Huailue felt as if he had taken a reassurance pill.
"If there is nothing else, we will leave first." The three guardians did not stay in the Great Prince's Mansion for long, they left quickly.
After leaving the First Prince's residence, the Third Dharma Protector asked again, "First Dharma Protector, Feng Huailue is already a useless chess piece now, why are we still spending so much time on him?"
"Who said Feng Huailue was a useless move?" The Great Protector glanced at her and said, "Don't forget who the Great Concubine is."
Feng Huailue's principal wife was Qingtu, the only daughter of Prince Pingliang. Prince Pingliang was a prince of a different surname who was personally conferred by the previous emperor. His status should not be underestimated.
Half a year ago, King Pingliang was unwell, and Qingtu hurried from his fiefdom to visit him.
It's not long before Feng Xuanming's birthday. Prince Pingliang and Qing Tu are probably on their way to Beijing. By the time they arrive, the situation in the capital will probably change again.
"The eldest prince is indeed useless, but with him here, he will definitely help us solve a lot of problems. We just need to watch from the sidelines. Isn't that good?"
The Second and Third Dharma Protectors then understood the Great Dharma Protector's plan: "The Great Dharma Protector is wise."
At this moment, Su Chenyu and Bai Yanqing also took advantage of the night and sneaked into the Xixia Palace again. They wanted to go directly to the Imperial Concubine's Palace, but when passing by the Empress Dowager's Palace, they seemed to see a familiar figure.
How come Yi Peng appears here?
The two looked at each other and immediately decided to stop and see what was going on.
In the inner hall, the Queen Mother was half-sitting on the bed, looking exhausted. She must have dismissed the palace maids, and only Yi Peng was standing beside the bed.
What surprised Su Chenyu was that Yi Peng sat down beside the bed without the Queen Mother's permission and even held the Queen Mother's hand: "Queen Mother, why are your hands so cold?"
The Queen Mother did not pull her hand away, but asked indifferently: "Why, the deposed Queen is dead, are you still coming to settle accounts with me?"
"Empress Dowager, people outside don't know what's going on with you. Don't you know? In my heart, there is only you."
"If I didn't know you, how could I let you live until now?" The Queen Mother looked at Yi Peng, "Marquis Xinyang, don't I look a lot older?"
"In the heart of this old minister, the Empress Dowager will always be the same as she was back then. She has never changed."
The Queen Mother sighed softly: "You are here today for Xinning's matter, right?"
