The Empire and the Kingdom

In Concubine Shu's Lixin Palace, Concubine De looked at the frightened Concubine Shu, and said softly: "Now that things are up to now, you should do what they say. You and I are both weak women, we can't do much."

Concubine Shu grabbed De Concubine's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Sister De Concubine, you know I was forced. I don't know anything about my father and brother. This matter has nothing to do with me!"

Concubine De understands that Concubine Shu is a young lady who was spoiled by her family. Because she is the niece of the Empress Dowager, it has always been smooth sailing in the palace. Concubine Shu knows about this. The concubine is trying to protect them as much as possible.

All the female relatives and concubines who participated in Dingguo's mansion were gathered in Lixin Palace, and the front hall and back hall were full of crying people.Guan Xuejing and Feng Qianzi were among them.As soon as the two of them entered Dingguo's mansion, Guan Xuejing sensed that something was wrong. She pulled Feng Qianzi to leave, but Feng Qianzi shook her head, "Stay here and see the situation."

At this glance, she saw the palace. Guan Xuejing wanted to take Feng Qianzi away several times, but was rejected by Feng Qianzi. She wanted to see what Duke Ding was going to do.

Guan Xuejing protected Feng Qianzi and hid in a corner of the main hall, their eyes fell on Concubine Shu and Concubine De who were talking in the hall.

"Qianzi, how credible do you think Concubine Shu's words are?" Guan Xuejing asked softly in Feng Qianzi's ear.

Feng Qianzi moved, feeling that Guan Xuejing's exhaled heat made her ears very hot, and she also imitated Guan Xuejing and said in her ear: "It's hard to say, but Concubine Shu will definitely know. She can't be relied on for one thing."

Guan Xuejing's ears moved, oops!So hot!

As soon as Feng Jingsu appeared on the roof of Lixin Palace, she was surrounded by people.When she saw it, several of them turned out to be Ouchi guards. "You betrayed too?"

One of the Ouchi guards shook his head, "Princess, we are ordered to protect the women in the palace, and that's our duty."

"You think I'm the one who wants to harm these female relatives?" Feng Jingsu was so angry that she didn't know what to say.

The Ouchi guards did not speak, nor did they let him go.

Feng Jingsu raised her eyebrows, "Whose orders did you follow?"

"Of course it is His Majesty." These big inner guards have always only obeyed the emperor's orders.

Feng Jingsu's heart skipped a beat, she didn't think it was necessary for these people to tell such an obvious lie.She didn't act in a hurry, stretched out an index finger, and looked down at the palace below. A cold air condensed between her fingers, filled with true energy, and even opened a hole in the window of the main hall.The hole is not big, but there is cold wind pouring in.This sudden change caused the female family members in the main hall to make panicky voices. Feng Jingsu heard a lot of voices and was sure that the people inside were alive, so she left Lixin Palace.Since there are Ouchi guards here to protect it, there should be no problem coming inside.

There was a panic in the main hall, Concubine Shu was also very frightened.Guan Xuejing said softly: "It's Senior Sister, she's trying to see if the people here are still alive."

Feng Qianzi frowned, "Why doesn't the princess come in and take a look?" She felt that with Feng Jingsu's martial arts, it was impossible not to come in.

Guan Xuejing pointed to the roof, "There are people on it."

Feng Jingsu left from Lixin Palace, she walked on the roof, which is faster.Then she saw a woman fighting with someone outside the palace walls.She narrowed her eyes, is that Yushu?No, that's Yuyan.This realization made Feng Jingsu's heart tremble.Yuyan was ordered to die by her not to leave Xue Ai's side, now that Yuyan is going to enter the palace, where is Xue Ai?

Feng Jingsu rushed to the palace wall, and all the obstacles along the way seemed to her to be non-existent.If it weren't for these big inner guards not resisting desperately, her Zhaochun sword would be unsheathed.

When she got to the palace wall, she slapped her palm in the air, who could bear the extreme cold, and successfully created a space for Yuyan, who took the opportunity to climb up the palace wall. "Princess." Yuyan was also very tired.

"What's wrong with Xiao Ai?" Feng Jingsu didn't talk nonsense.

"Miss was attacked on the way to the Prime Minister's Mansion and was injured. Fortunately, she was rescued by the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now she is recuperating in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Miss asked the servant to tell you that this matter is not easy. You'd better go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion , She has something to say." Yuyan's shoulder was stained with blood, and she didn't know if it was her own or someone else's.

"How is she hurt?" Feng Jingsu was most concerned about this.

Yuyan shook her head, "There is no fear of life."

Feng Jingsu nodded, "Follow me, I'm going to ask for an answer first."

Feng Jingsu returned to Zhiqiong Palace and went directly to the Buddhist hall.There was no one in the Buddhist hall, so she turned to the back of the Buddha statue, slapped down, the Buddha statue moved, and Princess Yongning came out from the cellar under the Buddha statue.

"Yun Yi, what's the matter?"

"I want to see my father." Feng Jingsu was about to enter the cellar, but was stopped by Princess Yongning.

"Yun Yi, father is fine inside, you don't have to worry."

Feng Jingsu narrowed her eyes, "Second Sister, don't forget how I helped you save Concubine Xian, and don't forget that you are Fei Yejin's disciple." She had already turned her face.

Princess Yongning didn't expect Feng Jingsu to turn her face when she said that she turned her face. She is also an honest person, and she has no words to face this situation.Feng Jingsu ignored her, pushed her away and went into the cellar.

The cellar is very small, and what's inside can be seen at a glance. There is no emperor or concubine at all.She came out again and looked at Princess Yongning, "Are you sure you still want to hide it from me?"

"Yunyi, I'm just..." Princess Yongning is really good at lying, and Feng Jingsu's momentum is too overwhelming, she feels that everything she says is like sophistry.

"The poison of the father has been cured, right? Who gave the antidote? The seventh brother? So the father and the seventh brother are working together? What is the purpose? Other than Duke Ding? Or me?" This series of questions, Make Princess Yongning's eyes widen, how did you think of this in an instant?

Feng Jingsu didn't need an answer anymore, she shook her head, "Second Sister, I'm not surprised that you listened to my father, but you actually helped them hide it from me, which wasted my trust in you." After she finished speaking, she turned her head and left.

Princess Yongning grabbed her sleeve, "Yun Yi, listen to me, I didn't mean to hide it from you, it's just this matter..." She paused, gritted her teeth, and said, "I have my reasons."

Feng Jingsu nodded, and left without saying a word.Princess Yongning followed out worriedly. She saw Feng Jingsu come to the yard, took out a firework from her arms and lit it up in the sky.The fireworks bloomed in the sky, the bright red color was eye-catching, and the brilliance was brilliant.

"You are..." Princess Yongning said, "Yunyi, since you know that this is a joint game between the father and the seventh brother, it is best not to let the garrison show off, otherwise the master will be overwhelmed..." Although Princess Yongning concealed Some things, but I still don't want Feng Jingsu to have an accident.

Feng Jingsu turned around silently, "Great achievements overwhelm the master?" She sneered, raised her chin slightly, her eyes were firm and proud, "From this moment on, I am the master."

The people staying in the main hall of Lixin Palace heard the sound of fireworks blooming, and several people at the door saw it and discussed it one after another.

When Guan Xuejing heard that the red fireworks were going up to the sky, she couldn't hide anymore.She looked at Feng Qianzi in her arms, Feng Qianzi nodded, "Xuejing, you go, don't worry about me."

Guan Xuejing shook her hand vigorously, "Qianzi, wait for me to come back!" After she finished speaking, she got up and squeezed out of the crowd.Only then did Concubine Shu and Concubine De notice Guan Xuejing among the chaotic crowd.Before she had time to be surprised, Guan Xuejing had already rushed out of the main hall, and the guards at the gate were useless in her eyes.She came to the banquet today, and she didn't have the Moon Shadow Sword in her hand. During the fight, she snatched a spear from the opponent's soldier and swung it around, making it hard for people to approach.

After repelling the gatekeepers, she flew into the room, at this time several big inner guards shot at the same time, Guan Xuejing pointed a spear, and snatched a long sword from a person, which was much easier now.

"Everyone, don't embarrass me, and I don't want to embarrass everyone." Guan Xuejing was dressed in white today, and her long hair was tied up with two jade rings. She was already neat and tidy. Heroic.

Several big inner guards secretly groaned in their hearts, and they didn't want to run into such a master as Guan Xuejing, but there was really no way to do it because of their responsibilities.

The fight lasted for a short time. Guan Xuejing knew that Feng Jingsu needed someone, so she was merciless. Even without the Moon Shadow Sword, her martial arts were completely beyond the expectations of the big inner guards.It turned out that Miss Guan San, who usually had a playful smile on her face, was so ruthless.

Guan Xuejing did not kill anyone, but left Lixin Palace after injuring a few people.She had just jumped a few roofs of the palace when she saw Feng Jingsu standing on the roof in front, as if waiting for her.

"Senior Sister!" Guan Xuejing frowned as she jumped closer, she felt that Feng Jingsu's whole body's temperament was different. "What happened?"

Feng Jingsu tried to calm herself down, "It's okay. Xuejing, how is Miss Feng?"

"Qianzi is still in Lixin Palace." In fact, Guan Xuejing was still very worried.

"It's hard for you." Feng Jingsu didn't say too many words, she asked Guan Xuejing to go to the city gate immediately to meet the garrison entering the city, and then lead people to attack Ding Guogong's mansion. "Let Yushu bring all the hidden guards here, and I will rescue those female relatives."

It has to be said that Feng Jingsu's stern expression was a bit scary, Guan Xuejing didn't dare to say a single unnecessary word, and left immediately.

Feng Jingsu turned her head, looked at Princess Yongning who was standing not far from her, and said coldly: "Second Sister has heard it, why don't you tell Father the Emperor?"

Princess Yongning sighed, "Yun Yi, you can blame me, but have you ever thought that as long as you endure this incident, you will be able to regain military power in the future, and this incident will not do you any harm."

Feng Jingsu looked up at the sky, the sky was blue, it was originally a good weather. "Second sister, I thought that as long as I endured enough, took my time, and had enough patience, at least my father would not attack me. But now I find that I was wrong. My father wants to use me to check and balance seventh brother, but he can't trust me Sooner or later, this country will belong to the seventh brother, so why should I be a chess piece for my father to check and balance people? I don’t like being a chess piece, I want to be a chess player.”

She was fed up with this kind of endless guessing and doubting. Why did she spend so much effort on things that could be solved with just moving her fingers?For the sake of justice?What a joke, she will never be justifiable as a princess.

"Yunyi, you... want to usurp the throne?" Princess Yongning asked in an unbelievable tone.

"No, it's not me who usurped the throne, but the seventh brother." Feng Jingsu actually smiled. At this moment, her expression was full of confidence and determination.
