What do you mean?
Feng Guche stared motionlessly at Cang Xixue's pale face, a sudden pang of pain shooting through his heart.
"If Your Majesty the Empress faints, someone will inform the Emperor. But if I were to fall ill one day, I fear the Emperor would not even know. When that day comes, I would rather choose to pass away."
As soon as Cang Xixue finished speaking, Feng Guche quickly reached out and covered her mouth.
"Xue'er, I won't allow you to say such things. How could Shen Biyun be compared to you? That bitch actually poisoned my food. I'm already being merciful by sparing her life!"
"From now on, you are not allowed to say such things again. You are my Xue'er, and you will always be the high and mighty Imperial Noble Consort. How could you possibly live in the Cold Palace?"
"I know all of Shen Biyun's tricks, like fainting or feeling unwell. He's just making a fuss to get me to rescind the imperial decree!"
At this point, Feng Guche snorted coldly, his face as if covered with a thin layer of frost.
Subsequently, Feng Guche's entire demeanor underwent a significant change.
Cang Xixue stood still, looking at Feng Guche with a pitiful expression.
"Don't worry, I will definitely not let what you are worried about happen. As for Shen Biyun, after all this commotion, I'm afraid I'm not the only one who knows about this!"
Feng Guche spoke with great certainty, and his words were filled with resentment.
Cang Xixue naturally understood that after Shen Biyun fainted, not only the Emperor would receive the news, but the Empress Dowager would also receive it. Even so, she still pretended to be puzzled.
"Your Majesty, you should go and see the Empress. After all, she is the mother of the nation, and public opinion can be very powerful!"
Cang Xixue's words, "The power of public opinion is invincible," left Feng Guche stunned on the spot.
Thinking about the current state of the court, Feng Guche became even more furious.
The story of the King of Libei perfectly illustrates the power of public opinion!
Originally, the matter of the King of Libei had been completely resolved, and for so many years, neither the civil nor military officials nor the common people dared to say anything.
Unexpectedly, a suggestion made by the Empress Dowager at the birthday banquet caused all the civil and military officials to change their minds.
Those heartless bastards actually dared to defy my wishes and openly kneel before me, begging for a thorough investigation into the case of the Prince of Libei from back then!
The power of public opinion is indeed great, and it is certainly despicable!
Unable to quell his anger, Feng Guche could only vent his frustration on Shen Biyun.
"Life and death are determined by fate, and we cannot control them. If the Empress is lucky, she will naturally survive this calamity. If not, then it is the will of Heaven."
Cang Xixue didn't say anything, but a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
All I wanted was that one sentence from Feng Guche.
Only by completely overthrowing Shen Biyun will Prime Minister Shen suffer a great blow. Without the support of Shen Biyun and the Prime Minister's Mansion, Feng Xilan will be no threat.
Seeing Feng Guche's resolute determination, Cang Xixue was secretly delighted, but she did not show any joy on her face.
"Your Majesty, you should still go and see her. After all, even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness. She is the Empress."
Cang Xixue gently comforted her.
After listening, Feng Guche's tone became even more resolute.
"I may talk about our marital bond, but look at what Shen Biyun has done! They've been plotting to kill me all along. Don't bring this up again. I will never set foot in the Cold Palace!"
