Chapter 158 Feng Xiyao goes to find Jiang Jue
Shoukang Palace
The Queen Mother summoned the two to Shoukang Palace.
She looked at the expressions on their faces and knew what was going on.
The Queen Mother sighed softly: "Emperor, since you are back, give Song Qianxue something as a reward for saving her life, and then release her from the palace!"
Mo Cangyan glanced at Feng Xiyao, pondered for a moment, and spoke lightly.
"Mother, Song Qianxue saved me after all. She is all alone. Isn't it too cruel to let her leave the palace now?"
The Queen Mother frowned: "Does the Emperor want her to live in the palace permanently, or do you want to take her into the harem?"
"No, I just think... now is not the right time."
“…”
Feng Xiyao raised her eyes to meet Mo Cangyan's evasive gaze and pursed her lips.
The Queen Mother wanted to say something, but because Feng Xiyao was beside her, she couldn't open her mouth, so she could only smile and pat her hands.
"Your Majesty is tired today, go back and rest first!"
Feng Xiyao glanced at Mo Cangyan, who had a cold expression, and looked away.
"Yes, I'll take my leave then!"
She bowed and turned to leave.
Seeing her disappear at the door, the Queen Mother frowned unhappily and said.
"Emperor, you are the ruler of a country. The emperor and the empress should live in harmony, but now you have a rift with the empress because of Song Qianxue. This is absolutely not allowed."
"I have heard some rumors about you and her these days, and I thought you only valued her because she was your lifesaver. But today I heard that you and the Queen had an argument because of her..."
"The Queen is such a good person. She suffered so much for you and almost died last time. You can't follow your father's old path!"
She paused, helplessly saying, "Song Qianxue has already fascinated you even before she enters the palace. If she really enters the palace, will you still pull the queen down and let her take this position?"
Mo Cangyan shook his head firmly: "Without the Queen Mother, the position of Queen would only belong to Feng Xiyao."
"So what do you mean now? You are so cold to her and hurt her feelings?"
Mo Cangyan lowered his eyelids: "I don't know what's wrong with me. I don't understand why I've been like this lately. I can't control my heart at all!"
The Queen Mother looked at his self-blaming expression and turned her gaze away coldly.
"I just think that all the changes that have happened to you now are because you brought Song Qianxue back to the palace. If you really want to live a stable life with the queen, send her out as soon as possible!"
Thinking that Song Qianxue was leaving, Mo Cangyan felt strange in his heart...
After a while, he slowly said, "I understand!"
…
Feng Xiyao dismissed everyone as soon as she returned to Fengchun Palace.
Thinking about Mo Cangyan's changes in recent days, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she quickly called the system to ask it what was going on.
The system had consumed a lot of energy and effort in helping Feng Xiyao to be reborn last time, and was even struck by lightning for several days.
Feng Xiyao was a little shocked when he saw the system coming out with a haggard face.
【What's wrong with you? 】
System: [It’s because I helped you to be reborn last time that I got punished! ]
Feng Xiyao felt somewhat guilty: [I'm sorry, I caused you to be punished! ]
[There's no way. Who made you my host? ]
Thinking of Mo Cangyan, Feng Xiyao hurriedly asked: [System, I found that the Tyrant has changed recently, can you find out the reason? ]
The system nodded. It had been punished these days and had not paid attention to the progress of Feng Xiyao and Mo Cangyan. It would not have known until it checked. Now that it checked, it only heard a loud woodchuck scream.
[Ahhhh, why did this happen, who did this? ? ]
This scream gave Feng Xiyao a headache, and she frowned: [What's wrong? ]
The system burst into tears: [Host, how could this happen? Your connection with the Tyrant has been severed, and even your health cannot be increased! ]
Feng Xiyao's eyes widened: [How is this possible? Why did it turn out like this? ]
The system shook its head: [I don’t know either. I just tried to help you connect, but no matter what I did, the connection between the two of you could not be established!]
Thinking about Mo Cangyan's changes in the past few days, Feng Xiyao finally understood what was going on.
She began to panic: [What should I do? ]
【……】
The system thought for a while, and suddenly thought of something, and spoke.
[Maybe there is a master in this world who used something to sever your connection! ]
[You now have two options. One is to find out who cut it off and try to reconnect it. The other is to let the tyrant break through the original plot himself. There are no other options except these two! ]
Feng Xiyao: [How can I possibly find that expert to help Mo Cangyan break through? This is beyond belief! ]
…
After finishing the communication with the system, Feng Xiyao locked herself in her bedroom and thought for a long time...
She didn't come to her senses until Ruyi came in with dinner.
Ruyi thought she was sad that the emperor had a new lover, so she comforted her, "Your Majesty, you have been in the room all day, eat something!"
Feng Xiyao took the bowl and chopsticks and ate a few bites. He thought that Ruyi was from this world and should know about that master.
Thinking of this, she asked her, "Ruyi, do you know any powerful masters in Daxia?"
Ruyi frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head: "I have grown up with the Majesty since I was a child. How could I know if the Majesty doesn't know?"
Thinking of something, she continued, "If Your Majesty really wants to know, you can go to the library. Maybe you can find the answer there. Or you can ask Lord Jiang. He is the top scholar and knows everything about astronomy and geography. He may know the answer too!"
“…”
The next morning.
Feng Xiyao arrived at the library, and the guards at the door bowed to her when they saw her.
"See the Empress!"
Feng Xiyao nodded and asked the historian who was in charge of the library, "Do you have any books about great people here?"
The historian thought about it and led her to find two books.
"This contains records of powerful people from all over the continent. Your Majesty, you can take a look!"
Feng Xiyao sat in the library with a book and looked through it...
But she still hadn't found what she wanted to see after reading it from morning to noon. Most of the records were about people who had made great contributions in the court or among the people, and all of them had passed away...
She remembered what the system said, that whoever could cut off her connection with Mo Cangyan must be very powerful. After all, he had the ability to fight against the system, so he must not be an ordinary person.
“…”
She put the book down and planned to go find Jiang Jue to ask. Now she could only wait and see if he knew.
Jiang Jue was in charge of the Imperial College. When Feng Xiyao found him, he was in class and had been waiting outside for a long time.
It was not until after class that Jiang Jue walked out slowly.
Seeing Feng Xiyao sitting under the pavilion, an imperceptible joy appeared in his eyes.
He walked over quickly and said, "Your humble servant is here to see Her Majesty the Queen!"
Feng Xiyao nodded: "Master Jiang, there is no need to be polite. I came here specifically to see you!"
