Feng Yinzhen couldn't control his anger at all.
Concubine Qi has always been a law-abiding person, even if she is a little brainless, but in this harem, she just needs to behave herself and do her job well.
So he never expected that the fire in Yiku Palace today was actually set by this woman.
Moreover, this woman had no remorse at all, and only regretted not burning his Lan'er and Wanwan to death.
These are his two most precious treasures! Qi Fei, this bitch, how dare she!
[Oh my butt! It's about to be split in half! You big pig's hoof, why didn't you even say anything before you stood up!]
[Look at you, why are you always so impulsive? This Concubine Qi certainly deserves death, but before she dies, at least the mastermind behind her should be uncovered!]
[This strange Husky has no conflict of interest with my mother recently. Why would she suddenly jump out and start a fire? There must be someone behind this!]
[Besides, she has the Third Prince as her weak spot. Even if she doesn't consider herself, she should consider the Third Prince as her son. But she looks like she is ready to die, and she doesn't care about the Third Prince's future situation at all.]
[This shows that she had already decided that even if she died, it would not affect the future of the Third Prince. She even planned a better future for him.]
[Regardless of whether this future is reliable or not, someone must have tricked her, and it must be someone with a strong background and means, which is why she would take such a gamble.]
Feng Wanwan's inner voice rang out at this moment.
Nagging.
But Feng Yinzhen's anger slowly calmed down.
My son, your father is not impulsive. I am only impulsive when it comes to matters between you and your mother.
After all, you two are my babies. If something happens to you, how will I live in the future?
But my dear, your suggestion makes sense. There is indeed something fishy and strange about this matter.
Concubine Hua also frowned: Yes, even if she was the exclusive favorite and caused Concubine Qi to be neglected, she has been neglected for so many years. There is no reason for this woman to suddenly jump out and target her.
She acted with the emperor, deliberately putting herself under house arrest to create the appearance that she had fallen out of favor and been neglected. She did have a purpose.
The purpose was to lure out the Queen Mother's real chess piece, Lady Miaoyin Xia Changzai, who was now apparently in favor.
But she only expected that Concubine Xia might attack her because of her youthful impetuosity and eagerness to ascend to the throne. She really didn't expect that the one who attacked her would be Concubine Qi...
So there must be someone behind Concubine Qi.
We must dig this person out before we can truly solve this matter.
Feng Wanwan's thoughts continued.
Who was behind Concubine Qi's death? The original novel states that she acted on the Empress's orders to take down another concubine. After Concubine Qi's death, the Empress naturally took over as the Third Prince's mother.
[However, according to the current plot development, the Queen is still trapped in Kunning Palace and is in danger of losing herself. Isn't it unnecessary for her to do this now? It won't help her temporarily.]
[Could it be the Queen Mother? ]
When Feng Yinzhen and Hua Fei heard the words "Empress Dowager", they were both shocked.
Feng Yinzhen's face became more and more gloomy: Mother, oh mother, you just can't hold it back... First it was Chun Daiying, then it was Xia Changzai, and now it's Qi Fei.
I have only recently ascended the throne, and you already think I am disobedient. Do you want to replace me with a younger and more controllable monarch?
Concubine Hua felt a chill on her back: Yi Huanxiang failed to succeed, so she changed to setting fire, trying to directly take her and Wanwan's lives. The Queen Mother was really cruel.
"Wait a minute!"
At this moment, Feng Yinzhen's low command voice sounded.
He slowly stood up, holding Feng Wanwan in his arms, walked to Concubine Qi, squatted down, and his eyes met with Concubine Qi's eyes as she curled up on the ground.
“Although you are stupid and vicious, you are a loving mother. The Third Prince has always been filial to you and treats you like a treasure.
If I were to punish you right now, it would be like taking away Third Prince's precious blood, so..."
He paused deliberately at this point.
Hope immediately flashed in Qi Fei's eyes, although it was faint but it grew stronger and stronger.
Although she had long known that there was a risk of being discovered and executed, everyone has a desire to survive. If there was a chance to live, she would certainly want to seize it.
After all, the Third Prince is the first child born after the Emperor ascended the throne, and he is also the eldest son of the current Emperor. He is highly valued and cared for by the Emperor.
If the emperor could give her a chance for the sake of the Third Prince, she would certainly want to live, so that she could at least see the day when the Third Prince ascended the throne.
"Your Majesty..."
"So I've decided to let the Third Prince accompany you on the journey, to preserve your mother-son relationship and also to prevent the Third Prince from worrying about you in the future."
Feng Yinzhen smiled slightly and finished the next words.
Qi Fei's pupils suddenly dilated, her fingers convulsively grasped the corner of Feng Yinzhen's robe, and she screamed in horror.
"No, no, Your Majesty, I am willing to accept the punishment, but this matter has nothing to do with the Third Prince.
Please don’t vent your anger on the Third Prince, Your Majesty!
Your Majesty, the Third Prince is your flesh and blood, your own flesh and blood. Can you really bear to let him die?
He is your most cherished and promising son!"
How could she bear to let the Third Prince die with her!
She shouldn't have any hope, she should just die happily!
Nothing can happen to her son, she must protect him!
Because of fear and panic, Qi Fei's face was now covered with tears and had already become red.
Looking at such a terrified face, Feng Wanwan couldn't help but sigh softly.
[My pig-hoof dad can be frighteningly impulsive when he's impulsive, but when he's calm, he can also be frighteningly cold and cruel.]
[Even his own son is being killed...]
Although this matter is related to the interests of the Third Prince, he is far away from the elder princes and is receiving instruction from their masters, so he certainly has no involvement in it.
[My pig-hoof father not only wants to kill his own son, but also kills innocent sons. How cruel.]
Feng Yinzhen was helpless and speechless: Son, isn't Dad just trying to cooperate with you? You asked me to calm down, why do you think I'm too cold now?
"Is it really not related to the Third Prince?"
Feng Yinzhen sneered again, slowly approached Qi Fei's face, and continued to question her.
Concubine Qi burst into tears.
"No, no, this matter really has nothing to do with the Third Prince. Your Majesty, I dare not hide it from you."
"Okay, then tell me now, why did you do this? Who is involved in this matter? Who instructed you to do such a bold thing?"
Feng Yinzhen pressed the issue again.
Concubine Qi was in a state of panic and responded immediately after hearing this.
"I am worried that the little princess will usurp the throne of the Third Prince. Concubine Xia suggested that while the Imperial Concubine and the little princess are under house arrest, we should simply burn them to death. Then..."
