Chapter 49 The Queen is not in the Palace
Feng Xiyao wanted to speak up to refute, but when she thought about her current situation, she didn't know what to say.
"I……"
Seeing that Mo Cangyan's face was becoming increasingly gloomy, she was worried that what she was about to say would irritate him again, so she bit her lip and said nothing.
Seeing her biting her lip with a look of grievance, Mo Cangyan let her go and softened his tone.
"This is not the first time Qin Fang has been injured, nor will it be the last. I have given him the antidote, and he will be fine after a night's rest!"
Feng Xiyao rubbed her hand that was hurt by the man's pinch and replied in a muffled voice.
"knew!"
Mo Cangyan didn't look at her and left the room.
…
In the palace.
Kong Xueer tried many ways to see the emperor but failed. Just when she was feeling depressed, she saw Concubine Li, who had just been reflecting on her mistakes, coming over.
Fearing that she would embarrass herself again, she turned around and tried to take a detour, but then she thought again and suddenly remembered something.
Concubine Li had been locked up for two months. When she first felt angry, she wanted to run to Mo Cangyan to cry, but the guards at the door would not let her in. She was so angry that she picked a flower from the roadside, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it a few times.
"Damn it, damn it Feng Xiyao, I won't let you go!"
Just as she was getting more and more angry about cursing, a figure hurried over and knelt down in front of her.
"My lady, I have something important to tell you. Please send everyone away!"
Concubine Li looked down a few times, and after seeing clearly who the person was, she couldn't help but sneer.
"You are a jerk who only knows how to seduce my cousin. What news can you have?"
Kong Xueer listened to her insults and slightly tightened her clenched hands.
"Your Majesty, this is about the Empress. This matter is very important and I can only tell you!"
When she heard that it was about Feng Xiyao, Concubine Li's eyes lit up and she spoke quickly.
"All of you, please retreat! No one is allowed to come here without my order!"
Seeing the surrounding maids and eunuchs retreat, Concubine Li asked hurriedly, "What is it about the Queen?"
Kong Xueer spoke immediately.
"The Queen is not in the palace now!"
Concubine Li frowned: "How is it possible? My cousin is sick. As the empress, how could she not be in the palace?"
Kong Xueer looked around and said, "The Queen left the palace a month ago and hasn't come back yet!"
"I remember seeing the Empress at the palace gate a month ago. She was late to come back, so I was worried that something had happened to her, so I sent someone to investigate. I didn't expect..."
Kong Xueer paused deliberately.
Concubine Li listened anxiously: "I didn't think of anything, tell me quickly!"
Kong Xueer smiled quietly and continued.
"I didn't expect to find out that the Queen had been having sex with a man outside the palace these days while the Emperor was seriously ill!"
Concubine Li frowned deeply, obviously not believing it. It is impossible for Feng Xiyao, an empress, to commit suicide like this without considering the people at home!
What's more, her cousin is the best man in the world. Who else could be better than him to make Feng Xiyao ignore her status as queen and sneak out of the palace? !
Seeing that Concubine Li didn't believe it, Kong Xueer leaned over and knelt down hard.
"Your Highness, you must believe me. What I say is absolutely true. If you don't believe me, you can go to Fengchun Palace now and see for yourself whether what I say is false or not!"
Seeing how serious she was, Concubine Li began to believe it and looked at her coldly with her eyes downcast.
"I will trust you this time. If you dare to deceive me, I will make you regret being born in this world!"
Kong Xueer breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, but she was worried that Concubine Li would not believe it.
Concubine Li brought her people and quietly came to Fengchun Palace. Seeing that it was very quiet inside, she couldn't help but believe it a little more.
If it were any other time, Fengchun Palace would be filled with constant noise and fun.
Thinking of this, she stopped and motioned Ying'er to go and take a look.
Ying'er nodded, walked forward, secretly pushed open the door, hid behind the door and looked at the little palace maids in the room.
I only heard a palace maid holding the dishes in her hands and saying in a bored voice: "When will the Queen come back? I miss her!"
Ruyi heard the sound and quickly covered the maid's mouth.
"Keep your voice down, or someone might hear you!"
The little maid looked around fearfully and stuck out her tongue.
"I forgot. Sister Ruyi, calm down and don't talk about it again!"
After listening to this, Ying'er turned around and went out, closing the door gently.
"How's it going? Is the Queen in there?"
Ying'er shook her head: "No, the people inside said it themselves!"
Hearing this, Concubine Li raised the corners of her mouth with pride.
"Feng Xiyao, you are dead this time!"
Even if Feng Xiyao did not leave the palace to have sex with a man, as the Queen of Daxia, she dared to run out of the palace, which was a serious crime.
Thinking about how he had been put in solitary confinement for no reason over the past month because of her falling into the water, he could finally vent his anger.
"My queen, let's hurry in and catch him now!"
Kong Xueer was worried that Feng Xiyao would come back, so she spoke quickly.
Concubine Li shook her head: "No, if we rush in to arrest them now, if Feng Xiyao comes back and turns the tables, with her eloquent tongue, my aunt and cousin will definitely believe her again!"
Kong Xueer originally planned to rush in directly, but after hearing what Concubine Li said, she felt that it made some sense, but she was also worried that Feng Xiyao would come back.
"Let's go and see the Queen Mother. I miss her, so I'll bring her to Fengchun Palace to see what kind of slut my daughter-in-law is!"
Concubine Li said this proudly and left with her people.
Kong Xueer looked back hesitantly, and finally had to follow Concubine Li.
In the distance, Xiao Feng, who heard their words, secretly said that something was wrong and turned around to walk out of the palace.
…
Qin Fang opened his eyes and heard the sound of a door opening.
I saw Feng Xiyao walking in with a bowl of porridge in her hand. When she saw that I woke up, she smiled.
"You finally woke up!"
Qin Fang glanced at the bandaged wound, then looked up at Feng Xiyao. Thinking of what she had done when he was dazed at night, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He stood up and knelt down towards Feng Xiyao.
"Thank you for last night, Madam. Are you hurt?"
Feng Xiyao put down the things and helped him up.
"You are still injured, don't kneel down for no reason!"
"And I didn't do anything last night. Mo Cangyan fed you the medicine, and I just bandaged your wound!"
Qin Fang didn't dare to look at her and lowered his head: "Yes!"
"Hurry up and drink a bowl of porridge. I'll ask the kitchen to make you a bowl of chicken soup later. The injured must be well nourished!"
Qin Fang curled his lips, took the bowl from Feng Xiyao's hand, and drank it in one breath.
Seeing that he had finished all the porridge, Feng Xiyao nodded with satisfaction.
Mo Cangyan, who was standing at the door, looked at the two people's actions, frowned deeply, and his face was full of displeasure.
Just when Feng Xiyao was about to say something, she saw Xiao Feng walking over in a hurry.
"My Lord, something bad has happened. Concubine Li knows that the Empress is not in the palace, so she went to find the Queen Mother and plans to go to Fengchun Palace together!"
Feng Xiyao's eyes widened: "What?"
