"It is indeed the poison from that year." Doctor Qin stood up and replied in a trembling voice, bowing his head even lower than when he came in, not daring to look up at all.

The emperor's slightly dilated eyes suddenly narrowed, and he clenched his fists and turned to the queen mother, "What other excuses do you have, mother?"

The Queen Mother did not answer the Emperor, but turned to the people below and said in a deep voice: "All of you leave."

Doctor Qin fled out with the medicine box in his arms.

Feng Yuqi walked over quickly and grabbed him, "Don't leave yet, is she okay?"

Doctor Qin wanted to leave or kneel, but Feng Yuqi held him back and couldn't get away. The faces of the two people at the top became even gloomier. Doctor Qin looked hopeless and whispered to Feng Yuqi: "It's nothing serious, nothing serious..."

"If it's not serious, then there must be a minor problem. You go and take a closer look at her." Feng Yuqi said.

Su Yunxuan sat still. She didn't want to miss this rare opportunity.

The Queen Mother signaled to the maids to send them away with her eyes.

Even if Su Yunxuan didn't want to leave, she could only stand up before the nanny's hand touched her.

Feng Yuqi kicked the approaching nanny away. The Queen Mother was so angry that she shouted, "Feng Yuqi, you are rebelling. How dare you act rashly in my palace?"

Pei Qianluo stopped walking and turned to look inside the hall when he heard this.

"Take her outside and let Doctor Qin see her." The emperor spoke to Feng Yuqi.

His action rekindled a glimmer of hope in the Queen Mother's heart.

She thought that the emperor's son still had some mother-son affection for her.

Watching the three juniors leave, the Queen Mother slowly sat down, quickly thinking of a countermeasure in her mind.

Without waiting for her to sit down, Feng Zhiyi stood up and asked coldly: "Did you force Yingbai to death?"

Although he asked, the hatred in the Queen Mother's eyes instantly shattered her hopes.

The Queen Mother stared at Feng Zhiyi, her face gradually losing color. She didn't reply, so Feng Zhiyi said it again in an affirmative sentence: "Yingbai was forced to death by you."

The Queen Mother sat steadily, staring at Feng Zhiyi in silence. If it weren't for her extremely pale face, there would be no sign of emotion at all.

"Yingbai was forced to death by you... hehe... Yingbai was forced to death by you." Feng Zhiyi repeated this as he slowly walked towards the hall, his tone filled with self-deprecating sneer.

Suddenly, as if he had gone mad, he suddenly raised his leg and kicked over the table beside him.

There was a loud "bang".

The Queen Mother was so frightened that she jumped up, her whole body trembling uncontrollably. She hurriedly grabbed the handle of the chair and tried hard to stay calm.

Feng Zhiyi was ready to completely break off relations.

Over the years, he always thought that it was his selfishness that caused Ye Yingbai to commit suicide by taking poison.

Guilt made him suppress the violence in his heart, and regret made him try his best to play the kind of compassionate lord that Ye Yingbai admired, so he did not completely uncover the hypocritical masks of this group of people.

Now, he doesn't want to pretend anymore. He wants to avenge her. He wants this group of people to be buried with his Yingbai.

"Someone come here!" Feng Zhiyi shouted outside.

Two secret guards suddenly flashed into the hall like ghosts.

"Press them all down." Feng Zhiyi raised his hand and waved.

The six maids in the hall were instantly tied up and thrown into a pile.

The Queen Mother was so frightened that she fell backwards on her seat and asked in a trembling voice, "What...what are you going to do?"

Feng Zhiyi walked towards the Queen Mother, his eyes full of murderous intent, "I am afraid she will be lonely over there, Queen Mother, please go and accompany Yingbai on behalf of me."

The Queen Mother's pupils dilated at his words. She shouted in disbelief: "Feng Zhiyi, are you crazy? I am your biological mother, and I am the Queen Mother Feng Lan."

"Heh..." Feng Zhiyi sneered, with a scornful smile on his face. He said, "My biological mother? You reminded me."

He stopped in front of the Queen Mother, staring at her intently, and asked, "Am I really your biological son?"

"Of course. You must have gone through the hardship of carrying me for ten months..." The Queen Mother leaned back as far as she could, leaning against the back of the chair.

"Then why does mother treat me like this?" Feng Zhiyi interrupted him.

"You can check the family tree jade disc...Zhiyi, you are definitely my biological son." The Queen Mother said in an urgent voice.

Hearing the name "Zhiyi", Feng Zhiyi was stunned for a moment.

No one has called him like this for many years since Yingbai left.

He straightened his back, took two steps back and sneered, "I checked, but I suspect the jade disc is fake."

The Queen Mother's lips moved, and she was about to speak, but Feng Zhiyi's voice became hoarse, as if he was asking himself: "How could a mother in the world treat her own son like that?!"

The Queen Mother's pale face glowed red, and she shook her head and explained, "My Queen Mother didn't want to do that either. My Queen Mother had no choice!"

Seeing that Feng Zhiyi didn't interrupt, she sat up straighter and said, "Zhiyi, you have to know that you were born into the royal family, which means that we can't get along like ordinary mother and son. The fighting in the palace is cruel. If it weren't for your mother's hard work for you, we would never be able to stand here like this now."

"Then why was I the one to be sacrificed?" Feng Zhiyi sneered and took another step back.

The Queen Mother stood up, walked slowly towards Feng Zhiyi and said, "There is nothing we can do about it. Your elder brother was born earlier than you. Zhiyi, your mother loves you very much."

"But I am better than him in every way, and Father obviously likes me more. Why do you still have to pretend even to this extent, Mother?"

Feng Zhiyi stepped back, his expression gradually distorted.

His mother never approved of him.

Never!

This woman has no emotions, everything she shows is just acting.

When he was a child, he watched this woman wearing various masks and moving among all kinds of people in the palace.

In order to help her elder brother become the crown prince, this woman forced him to learn hypocrisy at a young age, and even hurt his body many times to frame other concubines...

She would do anything for her elder brother.

In the past, he thought this woman just liked his elder brother more.

But when my eldest brother successfully became the crown prince, he was unwilling to follow the woman's wishes and marry the daughter of the Pei family as his concubine. This woman actually sent people to find him from the clouds and killed my eldest brother through him. Later, she deceived everyone and helped him ascend the throne, watching him marry the woman trained by her Pei family as his queen.

"What you want to do is never to be the mother of us three siblings, but the mother of everyone in this world." Feng Zhiyi raised his hand to open the hand that the Queen Mother was extending to him, speaking sarcastically.

He used so much force that the Queen Mother's arm hurt and she almost fell down. Two of the bound maids shouted in shock, "Take care, Queen Mother!"

The Queen Mother steadied herself, glanced at the maids whose hands and feet were trapped on the ground, and suddenly realized: the son she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy might not love her as much as these old people who had been with her for most of their lives.

With a sad smile, the Queen Mother straightened her back and said to Feng Zhiyi in a sonorous voice: "Yes. I want to be the woman with the highest status in Fenglan. The women of our Pei family are born to sit on the Fenglan throne. This is the promise made by his Feng family to the Pei family."

"Why, why does it change when it comes to me? What's wrong with me? Why do you want me to become the shame of the Pei family? I won't accept this!" The Queen Mother's voice suddenly became louder and her eyes began to unfocus.

"The Emperor only appointed me as a noble concubine, and Imperial Censor Pei was unwilling to help me. He advised me to give up... Haha... The men of the Pei family always step on the women of our Pei family to get to the top, but in the end they blame us women for being incompetent..."

The Queen Mother rushed to the courtyard, opened her arms, looked up at the sky and continued to chant: "I won. I became the most powerful woman in Fenglan by myself. I am right!"
