Nirvana Phoenix Song

Chapter 53: The poisonous plot is revealed, and the storm arises

Feng Tangyue walked out of the court with steady steps, her mind racing with the changes in the Queen Mother's condition. The situation was clearly tilted at this moment, and the doubts of the ministers in the court would only grow deeper and deeper. The Queen's power was being shaken bit by bit before her eyes.

When they reached the palace gate, Mo Chenzhao was already waiting there. He stood under the shade of a tree, his expression as stern as ever, but when he saw Feng Tangyue's figure, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

"How is things going?" Mo Chenzhao asked in a low voice, his tone calm, as if he had already guessed the direction of things.

Feng Tangyue nodded slightly, her tone revealing a bit of coldness: "The Queen Mother's condition has suddenly worsened, and the Queen is now in a dilemma. Next, I will personally go to see the Queen Mother's condition and confirm what has happened to her."

Mo Chenzhao frowned slightly: "Are you sure it's appropriate to go to the Queen Mother's bedroom at this time? The Queen must be on high alert now. If you go at the wrong time, you might get dragged into a deeper trap."

Feng Tangyue chuckled: "That's why I have to go. The Queen must think that I won't take risks easily, but the more unexpected the action is, the more likely it is to break her plan."

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt something strange. The air around her seemed to become colder, and in the shadows on both sides of the palace road, it seemed as if several eyes were fixed on her.

"It seems that someone doesn't want me to get close to the Queen Mother." Feng Tangyue sneered and glanced at the darkness around him, "Mingfeng's people have already taken action."

"I'll take care of them." Mo Chenzhao's voice was calm, but there was a dangerous light in his eyes. His "Soul Devouring" power was already flowing quietly in his body.

Feng Tangyue shook her head gently: "No, don't be in a hurry to expose yourself. I want to see what tricks they are going to play."

The atmosphere in the Queen Mother's bedroom was tense and depressing. When Feng Tangyue walked into the palace, she felt a strange chill. She looked around the bedroom and found several unfamiliar maids walking around the Queen Mother's bed. They were obviously the new people sent by the Queen.

"How is the Empress Dowager doing?" Feng Tangyue asked in a deep voice, looking at the maids with cold eyes.

The leading maid glanced at Feng Tangyue with a cold expression: "The Queen Mother's condition has suddenly worsened, and we have urgently invited the imperial physician. But the Queen Mother's body is very weak, and I am afraid she can no longer withstand any interference."

Feng Tangyue calmly walked to the Queen Mother's bedside and looked at her face carefully. The Queen Mother's face was frighteningly pale and her breathing was weak, as if she might die at any time. Feng Tangyue's heart suddenly tightened. This was definitely not just a serious illness.

"This is poisoning." Feng Tangyue said in a low voice, with a cold look in her eyes, "How dare you poison the Queen Mother's food?"

The maids panicked for a moment, but soon regained their composure: "Third Princess, this is what you said, the Queen Mother is just seriously ill, not poisoned. Please don't make random accusations."

Feng Tangyue sneered: "Seriously ill? I'd like to see how long you can keep acting." She raised her hand gently, and the power of Nirvana condensed into a faint flame in her palm, carrying a burning breath.

The maids turned pale instantly, with fear in their eyes. They had not expected Feng Tangyue to be so decisive and use her supernatural power directly.

"Take me to check out the Queen Mother's medicinal food." Feng Tangyue said coldly, with an unquestionable pressure in her tone.

The maids did not dare to resist and quickly led Feng Tangyue to the Queen Mother's kitchen. Along the way, Feng Tangyue's mind quickly analyzed the possibility that the Queen Mother was poisoned. This matter was obviously related to the Queen, and Mingfeng's poisonous hand had reached too deep.

After arriving at the kitchen, Feng Tangyue immediately walked to the medicinal table and carefully checked the medicinal materials and decoctions. As expected, she found several herbs with weak toxicity. These poisons were extremely secretive and would not have been discovered without her professional knowledge in her previous life.

"It seems that the Queen has long planned to let the Queen Mother suffer from chronic poisoning so that she can gradually take control of the government." Feng Tangyue said coldly, becoming more alert to the Queen's sinister tactics.

At this moment, Mo Chenzhao appeared silently at the door. He glanced at Feng Tangyue and said calmly, "Everything has been done outside. Mingfeng's people don't seem to dare to act openly, but their spies are all over the palace."

Feng Tangyue nodded: "I have found evidence that the Queen Mother was slowly poisoned. What we have to do now is to expose all this."

Mo Chenzhao frowned: "Directly expose the queen? She still has the power of Mingfeng in her hands. Once she is pushed into a corner, she may resort to more drastic measures."

Feng Tangyue pondered for a moment and shook her head gently: "No, we can't be too hasty now. I want her to think that I am still in control of the situation. When she is completely off guard, I will expose her conspiracy in one fell swoop."

Mo Chenzhao nodded slightly: "It seems that you already have a complete plan."

Feng Tangyue's eyes were cold: "This power struggle is far from over. I will make the queen suffer the consequences of her own actions."

The two looked at each other tacitly, as if they understood each other's minds. Feng Tangyue knew that the Mingfeng organization behind the queen would never give up easily, and Mo Chenzhao would be her strongest ally in this struggle.

A few days later, Feng Tangyue stood in the court again. This time, she had solid evidence that the queen had poisoned her, and she was ready to reveal it all at the critical moment.

"Empress Dowager," Feng Tangyue's voice echoed in the court, carrying a strong pressure, "How are you going to explain the Queen Mother's poisoning?"

The entire court fell into silence in an instant, and all the ministers stared with their eyes wide open, not daring to believe what Feng Tangyue said.

"Poisoned? The Queen Mother is poisoned?" a minister exclaimed.

The queen's expression instantly turned extremely ugly, but she still pretended to be calm and said coldly: "Third Princess, I will ignore this kind of unfounded accusation."

"No evidence?" Feng Tangyue chuckled, took out some samples of herbs and medicinal food from her sleeves, and said coldly, "I found this myself in the Queen Mother's kitchen. These poisons are all highly toxic and can cause chronic poisoning."

There was an uproar in the court, and everyone's eyes were focused on the queen.

"Empress, please explain to me how these poisons ended up in the Queen Mother's kitchen?" Feng Tangyue pressed on, with irresistible pressure in her tone.

The queen's face instantly turned livid, and she clenched her fists, obviously having been forced into a desperate situation. She knew very well that Feng Tangyue had already obtained enough evidence, and if she did not act, the entire situation would be completely out of control.

"You..." The queen gritted her teeth, almost squeezing out the words, "Third Princess, it seems that I really underestimated you."

Feng Tangyue smiled slightly: "Empress, you can continue to struggle, but the final result is already determined."
