Chapter 4: The Dog Emperor Didn’t Catch Me

After returning to the bedroom, Feng Xiyao suddenly heard a mechanical and cold voice in her mind.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully saving his life. Your health value has increased to 5%. If you work hard, it will increase to 30%. You will get an unexpected treasure! ]

Listening to the voice echoing in her mind, Feng Xiyao widened her eyes in disbelief. She was traveling into a book with the system!

Thinking back to the novel I read before, the protagonist used the system to kill people everywhere, successfully escaped from fate, and lived a carefree life. Just thinking about it makes people yearn for it.

Now that she saw him for the first time, she was extremely excited.

[Hello, hello, are you here, system? ]

【……】

She excitedly communicated with the things in her mind, but this time there was no movement in her mind, only one life value.

She thought: [Isn’t this some kind of system? ]

Feng Xiyao was unwilling to give up and asked again: [System, please tell me how to increase my health points! ]

【……】

After waiting for a long time, there was still no sound, and Feng Xiyao was so angry that she was worried.

Not hearing the voice of the system she had been thinking about anymore, she reluctantly gave up, thinking of observing it slowly later.

She sat up and began to look around the place where the original owner lived.

This place is not as luxurious as imagined, but rather simple and plain everywhere. It doesn't look like the place where the queen lives. However, there are many flowers and plants in the yard, and there is also a beautiful peach tree. It would have a unique feel if it was tidied up.

Ruyi came to Feng Xiyao with tea and spoke carefully: "Your Majesty, fortunately the emperor stood by us today, otherwise the fate of Concubine Shu would be ours, and the old master and his wife would also be implicated!"

Speaking of this, Feng Xiyao also found it strange, because the book said that the tyrant really disliked his queen.

The reason is that Feng Xiyao was originally going to marry the emperor of Daxia, which means that whoever became emperor would marry her.

The one who was originally going to be emperor was Mo Cangyan's elder brother, Prince Nan'an, the favorite son of the late emperor. Just when everyone thought that this was a done deal, Prince Nan'an unexpectedly rebelled.

Although the rebellion failed, the late emperor was furious and demoted him to a commoner. Only then did Mo Cangyan become the emperor.

People have always said that Prince Nan'an would rebel, and it was all planned by Mo Cangyan.

Everyone was dissatisfied. Even his wife was the woman who would soon become his sister-in-law. How could Mo Cangyan be nice to Feng Xiyao?

In such an era where husbands are the most important thing for a woman, Feng Xiyao is not loved by her husband and can only hold on to the position of empress for the rest of her life.

If the emperor wanted her to live, she would live; if she wanted to die, she had to die obediently.

But now that this body is her own, she doesn't care whether the tyrant likes it or not. She wants to live well, and then wait for the original male protagonist to rule Da Xia, then take her parents and Ruyi away.

"Niangniang"

Seeing that she remained silent, Ruyi looked at her worriedly, thinking that she was frightened by this incident.

Feng Xiyao looked up and saw Ruyi's pitiful expression. She gradually felt relaxed. Fortunately, there was still someone who was so sincere to her.

Ruyi in the book was very good to the original owner. After the original owner died, she did not live alone. She ran to seek revenge on Concubine Shu but was strangled to death. Her body was thrown into a remote place in the cold palace and has never been found.

Although she is not the original owner, she feels lucky to have such a good friend who is loyal to her.

Mo Cangyan received the news brought by his subordinates.

Lin Youquan got the information from somewhere that he sent people to investigate, and he simply killed all the people in Jiangzhou who knew that he wanted to hide the silver mine. When his people arrived, they actually said that they had just discovered the silver mine and were about to hand it over.

The reason for the death of those people was that they were crushed to death by mountain collapse during mining.

Looking at the words above, he squeezed them tightly: "Lin Youquan is really impatient!"

"Your Majesty, your uncle handed over the silver mines. Is there any hidden reason behind this?"

Mo Cangyan looked into the distance with a dim gaze.

"If I hadn't known about it this time and sent people to investigate, how could that old fox be handed over?"

"I didn't expect that he was so ambitious that he actually wanted to secretly hide the silver mines!"

If it weren't for the Queen Mother's feelings and the fact that he held military power, Mo Cangyan wouldn't have kept him until now.

Thinking that it was Feng Xiyao who reminded him of all this, his eyes deepened.

Feng Xiyao had indeed made a contribution this time, but she dared to frame him and call him a tyrant. When this was over, he would definitely find a way to kill her and vent his anger.

Seeing the emperor's expression changing unpredictably, Eunuch Hai stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress has suffered such a great injustice this time, do you want to go and see her?"

Eunuch Hai had been in the palace for so many years that he knew who the person was at a glance. The Empress was a low-key, easy-going person, and a very good person. Prime Minister Feng had saved him before, so he was willing to speak for the Empress.

Mo Cangyan raised his eyebrows. After not seeing each other for a few days, he just wanted to go meet this queen who loved to plot against him to see what other surprises she could bring him.

"Let's go to Fengchun Palace!"

Eunuch Hai grinned and said that he understood the emperor best.

Fengchun Palace is far away from the Emperor's Purple Gold Palace. This was specially arranged by Mo Cangyan when Feng Xiyao entered the palace, just to keep her away from him.

Mo Cangyan walked for a long time before he reached the door of Fengchun Palace. He looked at the plaque hanging high on the door, on which were written three large characters "Fengchun Palace" in the style of flying dragons and dancing phoenixes.

He frowned, feeling a little regretful that he had taken her so far away.

In the yard.

Feng Xiyao was climbing up a tree and pruning branches.

This peach tree needs to be trimmed quickly, otherwise when it grows bigger, the tiles on the house will be lifted off.

"My lady, be careful!"

Ruyi was passing things downstairs, watching Feng Xiyao's movements and giving a worried reminder.

"It's okay, just a simple repair will do!"

[I should blame the tyrant for sending me to such a barren place. He has no humanity at all. We are husband and wife after all!]

While Feng Xiyao was pruning the branches, she secretly complained in her heart, who would like to work.

When Mo Cangyan came in, he heard his queen scolding him angrily. He walked over with a sullen face.

Because of the affair a few days ago, most of the servants in Feng Xiyao's palace are still being locked up in the Sky Prison and have not been released.

Of course, this was also Mo Cangyan's order, he just wanted to make Feng Xiyao suffer a little.

"emperor……"

When Ruyi saw the emperor coming, she looked at the queen worriedly and shouted in fear.

Hearing the voice, Feng Xiyao lowered her head and met the emperor's gaze. There was a darkness in those deep and sharp eyes, as if they wanted to suck people in deeply.

Feng Xiyao was stunned by the look and didn't notice that her foot slipped and she fell directly down.

Just when she thought the tyrant would reach out to catch her, then spin around a few times, and do a slow-motion melodramatic scene with a tear-jerking look in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, Mo Cangyan not only did not take action, but also took a step back.

Yes, Feng Xiyao saw that he did take a step back, and then she was greeted by the embrace of Mother Earth.

"Bang~~"

Feng Xiyao fell straight to the ground with his arms and legs spread out.

Ruyi hurried over and helped her up.

"My queen, are you okay? I'll call the imperial physician right away!"

Feng Xiyao didn't want to cause any trouble, so she pulled Ruyi back and said, "No, no, I'm fine!"

[Oh my butt! Luckily there is some grass to cushion my back, otherwise it would be so painful! ]

She took a deep breath and then glared at the person who came angrily.

[You dog emperor, you didn't catch me. Did a dog eat your conscience? You don't show any mercy to women! ]
