Chapter 567: Conspiracy 54

s attitude towards her, it was really like two different people."As for Empress Dowager's condition, the daughter-in-law still needs to study it carefully. When it's time to take medicine, she still h...Dugu Yu's boldness satisfied Feng Lingxi. At least he now knew his situation, and she had bet on this. If Dugu Yu had turned around and left, the ending would have been completely different.

"Who concocted the poison hidden beneath the snow lotus of Tianshan"

"What is corpse oil"

Du Gu Yu frowned, starting to doubt Feng Ling Xi's words. If she had been cured of the poison, why would she ask him this

"The one who poisoned you surely didn't tell you that this powder has corpse oil on it. It was because of this corpse oil that the efficacy of Tianshan Snow Lotus was destroyed, allowing the poison to seep into your body and making detoxification even more difficult."

"So, you haven't been detoxified." Du Guyu's gaze sharpened as he looked at Feng Lingxi. Seeing Feng Lingxi smirk with confidence, the hope that had risen in him was dashed once again.

"Lord San Wang thought that if I could find all of this, would I be unable to antidote it"

Feng Lingxi gave a cold glance and said, "I just want to remind the Third Prince that some things, once touched, you might not even know how you died."

"What do you mean by that"

Dugu Yu unconsciously looked at his own hands, feeling a little uneasy.

On the surface, you can understand the meaning.

Dugu City looked at Feng Lingxi's brow, that confidence between her brows, and he was also puzzled. He couldn't understand what Xi'er meant either.

Though the poison hadn't been cured from her body, by listening to what she was saying now, it seemed like there might be a way to detoxify it.

"Still won't the Third King tell us who gave you this corpse oil"

"This poison was given to me by a martial arts master from the rivers and lakes who I took in at my palace. He said that once this poison enters the body, no one else can cure it except for him."

Feng Lingxi gave him a withering glance. "With such wisdom, Third Royal Prince, you would believe the words of these charlatans Such reckless methods of alchemy are dangerous, Third Royal Prince. Be careful, lest one day you become the test subject."

Du Gyu was uncomfortable all over when she said this. This medicine powder had just arrived, and he had given it to Feng Lingxi, how could it have ended up on him

"You're talking nonsense, my mage would never harm me."

"Isn't Dugu City still your brother You don't even spare him, if you betray your own kin, what more can be said of those with ulterior motives like sorcerers"

Feng Lingxi shook her head, the mocking eyes made Dugu Yu feel uncomfortable all over.

"As a practitioner of the martial arts, you're trying to refine spells from the Western Regions, but your abilities are lacking. You've resorted to extracting corpse oil to add to your poison powder, hoping to achieve the desired effect through trial and error. However, your heat is too low."

Feng Lingxi looked at him with disdain, "The second question is, who sent the masked men we encountered three or four times on our way back to the capital"

Dugu Yu's expression stiffened slightly, the panic hidden in his eyes couldn't escape Feng Lingxi's gaze. Seeing Dugu Yu lost in thought, she calmly said, "If it's inconvenient, there's no need to answer."

"Wind and rain in the evening."

Upon hearing this answer, Feng Lingxi was a little surprised, but it was an answer nonetheless.

"The third question..."

"How many questions do you have left This king has already answered three of them."

Hearing her incessant questions, Duke Gu Yu's face darkened. "I will answer you two questions, but you haven't given me anything in return."

"Or should I sell you a very important piece of news"

Dugu Yu frowned, Feng Ling Xi's red lips curled slightly, "Apart from the poison I gave you, there is another poison lurking in your body for at least three years. As for what kind of poison it is, I'm not sure."

Feng Ling Xi's message caused a change in Du Gu Yu's expression. He was poisoned

He would rather not hear this message for the rest of his life.

This Feng Lingxi, her footwork is truly ruthless, piercing straight to the point.

"Well, how's this message Good enough"

Ignoring Dugu Yu's burning eyes, Feng Lingxi's smile widened. She loved seeing Dugu Yu like this, wanting to kill her but unable to. It was so satisfying.

"Xi'er, don't scare him, his face has turned pale."

"How could a dying man's face be good-looking Let me tell you frankly, even if I cured the poison you had on you, you wouldn't last more than a few years anyway."

Feng Lingxi spread her hands and watched as Dugu Yu's expression grew increasingly solemn, feeling a surge of exhilaration.

"Cooperation."

Dugu Yu raised his eyes, the previous coldness gone, his eyes full of sincerity. However, even so, Feng Lingxi didn't have the slightest bit of sentimentality.

This Dugou Yu is no ordinary person. He's truly ruthless, and he has proven it time and time again.

"Dugu Xiu, has always been against you."

Du Guyu spoke, beginning to show his sincerity, “After I left the Fourth Prince’s Mansion, he approached me, proposing we cooperate and eliminate both of you. The secrets I possess far outweigh what you know. Cooperate with me, and I will help you get rid of those you wish to eliminate.”

"In the end, we're just left with you two brothers facing off"

Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow. This Du Guyu was indeed sincere, but this fellow was unfathomable. Who knew what tricks he had up his sleeve He was a difficult person to deal with. However, in the current situation, not making an enemy of him wasn't a bad choice either.

Du Gugyu looked at Dugucheng, "What do you think, fourth brother"

Dugu City fell silent, Feng Lingxi saw that he was hesitant, and smiled.

"Three Kings, your sincerity is lacking. You want to cooperate just like that"

Dugu Yu looked at Feng Lingxi, "Ask, I will answer if I know."

"Who is the mastermind behind Fengyu Xi's downfall"

"This king only knows that the person behind her is very powerful. It's not Dugu Xiu, nor the Empress Dowager, nor the current emperor. This king has fought with her several times and never discovered her identity, but one thing is certain, this person is someone from within the court."

"Among the court officials, who has replaced the Chancellor"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, seeing him shake his head and fall into thought.

"The Imperial Concubine Long might know."

Du Guyu reminded, looking at the two of them raising their eyes to him simultaneously, he explained, "Now, all of Long Gui's power is under Feng Yu Xi's control. However, there's one strange thing, Long Gui has often been returning to the General's Mansion recently, and she often stays for several days."

"Staying at the General's Mansion for a few days shouldn't be a problem, right"

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu City, and she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this matter.

Before Feng Aotien asked the Fourth Princess Consort to treat Feng Yixuan's legs, Feng Aotien rebuilt your mother's residence and downgraded the Empress Dowager to an aunt. Doesn't the Fourth Princess Consort find this suspicious Feng Aotien publicly announced it, and everyone in the capital knows about it. With such generous efforts, wouldn't it be strange if there were no ulterior motives

Dugu Yu's analysis made Feng Lingxi raise an eyebrow involuntarily. This Dugu Yu really saw through it clearly. She thought Feng Aotien truly wanted Feng Yixuan to recover, but now that Dugu Yu said this, it didn't seem entirely so. It seemed more like he was plotting a bigger conspiracy.

"I didn't expect Third Prince to see things so thoroughly. It seems that everything in the capital city is within Third Prince's sight."
