Lady forced to seek prince

Chapter 487

After Princess Yu sued the Feng family, Queen Mother Feng hurried to the palace with the imperial army. Although she escaped at that time, leaving a glimmer of hope for the Feng family, it also made people see the chess pieces in her hands clearly, so she could not advance in advance this time. After receiving the news, when he was about to leave, the entire palace was surrounded by the Forbidden Army.

"Good, very good," Empress Dowager Feng pointed tremblingly at the people outside, "The late Emperor has only been here a few years, and you dare to treat the Ai family like this. Do you know that it is wrong to break into the palace rashly and arrest people in front of the Ai family? What crime?"

The soldiers at the door didn't say a word, and there was no hesitation on their faces. They were obviously determined to capture the Feng family hiding in the palace.

Zheng Wei, deputy envoy to the Privy Council, stepped forward and said: "It's cold since autumn, and the Holy One is also concerned about the Queen Mother, so he ordered us to take the Queen Mother back to Cining Palace."

Empress Dowager Feng naturally knew that this was just rhetoric. She would not be able to come out after returning to the palace. As for the Feng family behind her, they were all trembling with fear.

The Feng family has placed clan members in the Privy Council. Feng Fengzhi trusts his clan brother Feng Ziqi the most. Just when Empress Dowager Feng wanted to ask about Feng Ziqi's whereabouts, she saw two soldiers dragging a person over. Who else could it be if it wasn't Feng Ziqi?

Obviously Zheng Wei deliberately let Queen Mother Feng see this, and also told Queen Mother Feng that the Feng family was finished.

"What are you doing?" Queen Mother Feng's eyes widened.

Zheng Wei said: "Censor Xie Chen returned to the capital and brought a petition from Princess Changle. Princess Changle sued the Feng family for secretly causing harm. The Holy One ordered that the relevant people be arrested and interrogated."

Second Miss Feng, who was standing behind Empress Dowager Feng, felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up when she saw Feng Ziqi, who looked like a bloody gourd. She was already very panicked, and now she was even more out of breath.

She finally arrived at the palace and carefully served the Queen Mother, pretending to be extremely obedient. She had never experienced such hardship, but she knew that no matter what, she had to be patient and the Queen Mother had to leave the palace. If she continued If you have other thoughts, what is the difference between that and seeking death?

Originally, everything would get better once his father returned to Beijing, but unexpectedly, what he heard was the news of his father's defeat.

Miss Feng Er's eyes were red, and the thought in her mind was that if she couldn't escape, she would end up like Feng Ziqi.

"Okay," Empress Dowager Feng saw that Zheng Wei refused to give in. She took a breath and said, "The Ai family still has a lot of things in the palace. You can pick them up early tomorrow morning."

This was Empress Dowager Feng's last struggle. She only hoped that these people would not dare to do anything wrong and leave her half a day to think of other ways.

Zheng Wei bowed and said with a respectful expression, but his words were tough: "We must set off within an hour."

Queen Mother Feng's expression suddenly became serious: "Are you really sure that there will be no chance for the Feng family to stand up? No matter what happens to the Ai family, she is still the Queen Mother of Daqi."

If the Feng family gets a chance to take a breather, then the people here...

"The more this happens, the more ministers must handle their errands carefully and not make any mistakes," Zheng Wei said, looking at the Feng family members behind Empress Dowager Feng, "The imperial decree only requires the Empress Dowager to bring two female officials and two chamberlains back to the palace. , the rest need to stay in the palace."

After hearing this, Miss Feng Er's legs went weak and she almost knelt down on the ground.

After the Queen Mother left, one can imagine what happened to the people in the palace.

Empress Dowager Feng had a stern look on her face. She looked at the palace attendants beside her: "Let's take the Ai family back."

Zheng Wei stared at the back of Queen Mother Feng and ordered the soldiers around him: "If you can't meet the Queen Mother within an hour, follow me into the palace to rescue her."

Miss Feng Er didn't know how she followed the Queen Mother back to the palace.

Queen Mother Feng sat down, and the sound of sobbing immediately came from inside and outside the palace. The female family members of the Feng family were so frightened that they lost their minds. At such a time, they did not care about manners and etiquette, and they all looked at Queen Mother Feng.

"The Queen Mother, you must save the Feng family."

They were all being held hostage here, and there might have been blood all over the ground outside.

Second Miss Feng looked at the chaotic crowd and stood there blankly. She had never thought that the Feng family would be what it is today. All the female relatives now were probably the same as her.

The Feng family is not a royal family, but because the Queen Mother has become the most prestigious relative in Daqi, everyone lives a life of fine clothing and fine food. Even if the Queen Mother hides in the palace, everyone still feels that the Queen Mother has the means to take them out.

Until the palace was besieged, everyone couldn't believe that they would be reduced to this.Empress Dowager Feng said: "You have all heard what was said outside. Feng Fengzhi has lost the battle, and the Ai family cannot protect you."

The crying got louder.

Queen Mother Feng looked sharply: "Shut up, everyone."

As soon as the words fell, a choking sound was swallowed down his throat.

"The Queen Mother, you can't ignore us."

"Empress, if you let go, the entire Feng family will really be doomed."

Everyone was talking at once, and Empress Dowager Feng snorted coldly: "The Ai family doesn't take care of much? Who among the Feng family is not protected by the Ai family? But what have you done when the Ai family has raised you all these years?"

"If only one of Feng Fengzhi and Feng Chenghai had won the battle, the situation would not have turned out like this. This is especially true for you. You can only huddle in the capital and dream about your wealth and wealth. Thinking that the Ai family will one day take power, you become even more unscrupulous, and even Dare to trample Mrs. Xiao under your feet."

The female members of the Feng family did not dare to look at Empress Dowager Feng and lowered their heads.

Empress Dowager Feng said: "How the Ai family climbed to this position, you just heard about it. You don't understand how much pain there is, so you don't know either. No one in this world can be relied on except yourself."

When Empress Dowager Feng said this, she glanced at everyone: "Now you have only two ways to go. Either commit suicide before the Forbidden Army attacks. You can save your dignity. No matter what happens next, it has nothing to do with you, except for the time of death. Pain can be regarded as a life of wealth and glory. Or make up your mind to survive no matter how humiliating it is, and maybe... you can find a chance to reunite your family? Of course, the greater possibility is that you will have to see your family destroyed with your own eyes, but even if your husband and son die in In front of you, you have to grit your teeth and survive, and you cannot give up the opportunity to make a comeback until the moment you close your eyes."

"These are the two paths, you can choose for yourself!"

Queen Mother Feng waved her hand, and the female relatives of the Feng family were unwilling to disperse.

Queen Mother Feng was really angry and shouted: "Get out."

Then everyone walked out one after another.

Whether you live or die depends on your own choice.

Second Miss Feng couldn't move, she could not control her trembling. She was different from others. Her father was the uncle of the dynasty and the main person to be impeached this time. She would only be worse off than her clan members.

"Aunt... Aunt." Miss Feng Er had a pleading look on her face. She thought the Queen Mother would ignore her, but she didn't expect that a moment later, the Queen Mother raised her eyes to look at her.

"You don't want to die?" Queen Mother Feng asked.

Miss Feng Er shook her head desperately.

Queen Mother Feng continued: "You are still young, maybe you can exchange your skin and flesh for a life."

Miss Feng Er continued to shake her head: "No... no... I don't want to, please ask aunt... aunt to send me out of Beijing."

"Aunt," Miss Feng knelt down and begged, "my brother is gone, my father's whereabouts are unknown, my mother must have been arrested, and I am the only one left in the family, aunt..."

There was a hint of sadness in Queen Mother Feng's eyes. Governor Feng Feng was her younger brother, the Feng family she cared about the most. Why didn't she want them to live?

"Do you know why I agreed to help you negotiate for you to marry Xiao Yu?"

Miss Feng Er didn't know why Queen Mother Feng would mention this matter at this time.

"Because I thought you really had a chance," said Empress Dowager Feng, "climb into my position."
