Chapter 516: Conspiracy 3
g Xi bandaged the rabbit's injured leg. She found a place for it and made a little nest. The rabbit curled up in a ball, very small, pitiful, and helpless. Looking at it, Feng Ling Xi's heart ached; s..."Even his subordinates are unaware, the Fourth Royal Concubine has yet to awaken."
Keep an eye on her, and report to me when she wakes up.
Feng Lingxi listened to the fading footsteps and secretly opened her eyes. Seeing that there was no one in the room, she hurriedly untied the rope and woke up Xiaoli. The two of them quickly got up and went to the window to look outside. They were imprisoned in what looked like a large house, but Feng Lingxi wasn't sure where exactly it was.
Suddenly, footsteps came from the door. Feng Lingxi and Xiao Li hurriedly lay down, and then they heard a creaking sound as the door was pushed open. A sweet voice came, "Are they still asleep Go and wake them up."
Feng Lingxi, hearing the voice that was about to wake her, knew she couldn't pretend anymore. She also wanted to meet this woman who spoke so boldly.
"Fourth Royal Wife, wake up."
Feng Lingxi opened her eyes, feigning a headache as she looked around. Her gaze fell upon the woman in fine attire standing before her. Not yet twenty years old, she possessed a gentle and beautiful appearance. The red markings on her brow added a touch of charming youthfulness to her features.
"What is this place"
Feng Lingxi hurriedly got up, swept her eyes around, and looked at the woman in front of her with a wary expression, "Was it you who kidnapped me"
"Don't be afraid, Your Highness. We won't harm you. We apologize for this intrusion and hope you understand our predicament."
"Come"
Feng Lingxi, looking at her sincere eyes, thought of how she had been bound and carried unconscious to this place. She sneered, "Your way of inviting people is truly special."
"I'm sorry, it was my oversight that caused the Fourth Princess to be wronged. Let me make amends to the Fourth Princess."
"You haven't even told me who you are Why have you brought me here"
Feng Lingxi didn't want to hear her talk about this nonsense. This woman was so gentle-looking, she probably wasn't a truly evil person. But why did she kidnap her What was her relationship with that man
"I am the Princess Consort of the Third Prince, which makes me your Empress by marriage."
"The Third Royal Wife Then wasn't it the Third Prince, Du Gu Yu, who abducted me"
Seeing her nod, Feng Lingxi frowned. Why did Dugu Yu bring her here Didn't he worry that Dugu Cheng would be concerned about her disappearance Or was it that Dugu Yu wasn't a good person at all
"Has the Imperial Noble Consort been kidnapped by you as well"
The Third Royal Wife shook her head. "No, we only wanted to bring you here to talk."
"Is there something you couldn't say at the Fourth Prince's Mansion You brought me here, aren't you afraid that Dugu City will know and suspect you have other motives"
To put it nicely, wanting to help Dugu City ascend the throne, this move now makes their intentions inexplicable.
The Third Princess Consort smiled gently, "Don't be angry with the Fourth Princess first, go to the front hall and let the King speak to you personally."
Feng Lingxi heard that she was going to meet Dugu Yu. Thinking about it, it was better this way, so she wouldn't be abducted without knowing the reason. She woke up Xiao Li who was pretending to sleep and followed San Wangfei to the front hall. Dugu Yu and several people in luxurious clothes were talking. When he saw Feng Lingxi, he said a few words to them, and they left.
Du Gu Yu saw Feng Ling waking up, and he walked over to her with a smile on his face. He apologized, “Fourth Princess Consort, I apologize for taking you away without permission. Please don’t mind it.”
Mind you
He actually managed to say that out loud If it were him, would he accept an apology after being kidnapped like this
"Could the Three Kings please explain this to me"
The cold tone showed no sign of forgiveness. Feng Lingxi had completely lost her good impression of Dugu Yu, and his motive for kidnapping her only fueled her suspicions.
Du Gu Yu gestured for her to sit down and said to the third princess, "My beloved consort, please serve tea."
The Third Princess nodded slightly to Feng Lingxi, then left.
"Your Highness, this King heard that the Imperial Dowager Empress had been abducted, so he took advantage of the situation to abduct you. This King failed to notify Your Highness in time, please forgive me."
“Do you know my mother was taken, do you know who did it”
Dugu Yu shook his head, watching Feng Ling Xi's wary expression, and explained, "When this king knew about the abduction of Shu Taifei, he immediately sent someone to investigate and notified his fourth brother, but there was still no news."
"Dugu City, do you know why you brought me here"
"This King has already informed the fourth brother, the message should have reached his ears. Fourth Royal Consort, rest assured, this King will not make things difficult for you."
Feng Lingxi looked at Du Guyu's gentle and jade-like appearance, but she didn't feel good about it at all.
"Third Prince, you haven't answered my question. You kidnapped me... could it be that since my mother was taken, you wanted to take me as well, and frame those black-clothed men who kidnapped her"
Duke Gu looked at Feng Lingxi's eyes with increasing admiration, "Fourth Princess Consort is indeed intelligent and insightful. You guessed the purpose of this King taking you here so quickly. This King admits, it is as Fourth Princess Consort said, this King took you here to frame them."
"Why"
Du Guyu looked into her cold eyes and explained, "Although I don't know who kidnapped Shutai, I'm sure they did it because of the things Emperor Father left for Shutai."
"Lord Three Kings, your sources are truly swift. How quickly this fresh news reached you."
Feng Lingxi became increasingly wary of Dugu Yu. Unlike the other princes, he smiled at you but gave off an unfathomable aura.
She only just learned the reason why her mother was kidnapped from Master Zhixu, but he already knew. His speed was terrifying to imagine, his network of informants in the capital must be vast and fearsome.
"To be frank, Your Highness, I only just received this news."
Feng Lingxi rolled her eyes at him. Did he really think that just because he said something, she would believe it
Dugu Cheng probably still doesn't know that his mother was kidnapped. He only told the abbot those words when he thought she was abducted.
"Where's Dugu City Does he know I brought you here"
This king has informed the fourth brother, and Fourth Royal Consort, please rest assured and stay here.
獨孤宇's words caused Feng Lingxi's face to darken. What did he mean by letting her stay here
He wants to put her under house arrest
"Since the Third Prince knows that my mother has been kidnapped, why did he let me stay here peacefully What is his intention I still have to go find my mother. I don't have time to stay here."
Feng Lingxi was about to walk out when she was stopped by a guard who emerged from the shadows. Feng Lingxi turned to look at Dugu Yu, "Third Prince, what do you mean Do you want to confine me"
"Fourth Princess, this King is doing this to protect your safety. The situation in the capital is very unstable right now. Dowager Empress Shu has just been kidnapped. The other party's motives are impure. If the Fourth Princess appeared in the capital, she would likely be implicated. I apologize for asking you to stay at my mansion for a few days until Dowager Empress Shu returns. Then, this King will send you back home and will not stop you."
Feng Lingxi's face darkened. This Dugu Yu actually wanted to put her under house arrest, and he even said it so righteously.
