Nirvana Phoenix Song

Feng Tangyue and Mo Chenzhao entered the palace with the antidote, and the sound of wind and the tense atmosphere filled the entire palace. The Queen Mother's condition had reached the final stage, and the entire palace was waiting for something in heavy depression.

"The antidote is in hand. There can't be any delay now." Feng Tangyue clenched the small porcelain bottle in her hand, her eyes calm and determined.

Mo Chenzhao followed closely behind, his eyes scanning the surroundings, alert to any possible movement around him: "Can this medicine really save the Queen Mother?"

"We can only take this gamble." Feng Tangyue's tone was without any hesitation and her steps were quick.

When they arrived at the door of the Queen Mother's bedroom, Xiao Shi had already been waiting anxiously at the door. When he saw Feng Tangyue coming, he hurried forward with a nervous look on his face: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother is in a bad condition. She just fainted again, and the imperial doctors are helpless!"

Feng Tangyue walked straight into the bedroom without any hesitation. Inside the bedroom, the atmosphere became increasingly heavy, and the imperial doctors surrounded the empress dowager's bedside, their faces solemn and sweaty.

"Get out of the way." Feng Tangyue gave the order coldly. The imperial doctors did not dare to disobey and immediately made way.

The Queen Mother lay on the bed, breathing weakly, her face pale, as if she had only her last breath.

Feng Tangyue walked to the bedside, opened the antidote bottle, gently poured out a drop, and slowly applied it on the empress dowager's pale lips. The color of the antidote was as light as clear water, but it had a faint fragrance.

"Can the Empress Dowager hold on?" Xiao Shi stood aside, looking panicked and uneasy.

"She will be fine." Feng Tangyue said calmly, but there was still a hint of nervousness in her eyes, and her gaze was fixed on the Queen Mother's reaction.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the palace was so quiet that even the sound of a pin drop could be heard. Feng Tangyue's hand holding the porcelain bottle tightened slightly, and her eyes looked at the queen mother without blinking. Mo Chenzhao stood behind her, and his eyes never left the queen mother's face.

Suddenly, the Queen Mother's breathing became steady, and the rise and fall of her chest slowly became stronger. Her face also began to regain some color, and her brows wrinkled slightly, as if she was struggling to wake up from a coma.

"It works!" Xiao Shi exclaimed in surprise, and the imperial doctors also looked relieved.

The Queen Mother slightly opened her eyes, gradually regained consciousness, her lips trembled, and she uttered a weak voice: "Feng...Tangyue."

"Queen Dowager, you're finally awake!" Feng Tangyue immediately stepped forward with a hint of relief in her tone.

The Queen Mother slowly turned her head and looked at Feng Tangyue weakly, with a complicated look in her eyes: "You... saved me."

Feng Tangyue nodded gently: "Your body is deeply poisoned and you need to continue recuperating."

The Queen Mother closed her eyes, as if she was trying to sort out her emotions, and then she slowly said, "I know the Queen will not give up. Her next step... will definitely be another move."

Feng Tangyue's eyes narrowed: "Queen Mother, the Queen's evil plan has been exposed. You must recover as soon as possible. The situation in the palace is already precarious."

"Yeah." The Queen Mother nodded, looking a little tired.

Feng Tangyue turned around and told the imperial doctors to continue staying in the palace to take care of the empress dowager, while she and Mo Chenzhao left the palace together.

Walking out of the palace, Feng Tangyue stood in the corridor with a cold wind blowing outside, frowning. Although the Queen Mother had saved her life temporarily, she knew that every step forward would be more dangerous.

"What should we do next?" Mo Chenzhao asked in a deep voice. He stood aside, his eyes still as sharp as a blade in the cold night.

"The situation in the palace is still under the control of the Queen," Feng Tangyue glanced sideways and analyzed calmly, "She will not sit idly by. The Queen Mother's life is a bargaining chip for her. Once the Queen Mother recovers, the Queen's advantage will no longer exist."

"You mean, she will take action again?" Mo Chenzhao frowned.

"She has no other choice." Feng Tangyue's eyes were sharp, "But this is also our opportunity."

Mo Chenzhao was slightly startled: "What are you going to do?"

Feng Tangyue curled her lips slightly, a cold light flashed in her eyes: "Lure the snake out of its hole. We can't wait passively anymore, we must force her to reveal her flaws."

Mo Chenzhao was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll cooperate with you."

At this time, the atmosphere in the palace became increasingly tense. The queen stood in her bedroom, clasped her hands, her knuckles turning white. There was no smile on her face, and she looked extremely depressed.

"She actually got the antidote." The queen gritted her teeth, a hint of viciousness in her eyes.

A confidant beside him whispered, "My queen, now that Feng Tangyue has saved the queen mother, I'm afraid..."

"Shut up!" The Queen interrupted her confidant coldly, her eyes filled with murderous intent. "She thinks she can turn the tables by removing the poison? How naive!"

The confidant immediately kept silent, but knew in his heart that the situation would only become more and more complicated.

Feng Tangyue and Mo Chenzhao did not return to the cold palace, but went directly to the library. There are a lot of records about the history of Fengguo and various ancient books here. Feng Tangyue knows that in order to deal with the queen next, she must find more secrets about the queen and master more information.

"What are you looking for?" Mo Chenzhao asked in a low voice as he watched her flipping through the ancient books on the bookshelf.

"The Queen's background is not simple." Feng Tangyue thought as she flipped through the book. "She can mobilize the forces of Mingfeng. There must be some unknown secrets behind her. We must know her real weakness."

Mo Chenzhao nodded and helped her search silently.

Time passed little by little, Feng Tangyue's fingers slid gently across the pages of the book, and suddenly, her hand stopped.

"Found it." Feng Tangyue said in a low voice, his eyes falling on a passage of text on the page.

Mo Chenzhao walked forward and looked down. He saw that the book recorded the historical background of the Mingfeng organization and its core figures. Behind these figures, there seemed to be some mysterious power supporting them.

"The power behind Ming Feng..." Feng Tangyue muttered to herself, and suddenly realized something, "The Queen may not only rely on Ming Feng, she may have a more powerful support."

"A more powerful support?" Mo Chenzhao frowned slightly.

Feng Tangyue closed the book, her eyes deep: "Some things are beyond our control. There may be bigger secrets behind the queen. We must be prepared for the worst."

Mo Chenzhao nodded silently: "No matter what, I will accompany you to face it."

In the following days, the palace seemed calm on the surface, but undercurrents were surging. Although the Queen Mother's condition gradually improved, Feng Tangyue knew that this was just the calm before the storm. The Queen must be brewing a bigger conspiracy, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

"The queen may directly launch a coup." Feng Tangyue said bluntly when discussing with Mo Chenzhao, "We must prepare for it in advance."

"Coup?" Mo Chenzhao frowned even more tightly.

Feng Tangyue nodded calmly: "She now has the support of Mingfeng, and if the queen mother recovers completely, her power will be weakened. She will not wait to be forced into a desperate situation, she will definitely take the initiative."

"What about us?" Mo Chenzhao asked.

Feng Tangyue raised her head slightly, with a sharp light flashing in her eyes: "We must take the initiative to attack and nip her plan in the bud."

Mo Chenzhao looked at her deeply, with complicated emotions in his eyes: "You... are too strong."

Feng Tangyue smiled slightly, but her tone remained unwavering: "Now, there is no way out."

As time went by, the atmosphere in the palace became more tense, and Feng Tangyue's premonition became stronger and stronger. The queen's actions became more and more secretive, and the maids and eunuchs around her seemed normal, but they seemed to be hiding a potential danger.

"She's about to take action." Feng Tangyue stood outside the bedroom, looking coldly into the distance, and had already made a clear judgment in her heart.

Mo Chenzhao stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Are you saying that the queen is ready to attack?"

Feng Tangyue nodded gently: "We don't have time to delay any longer, we must take the initiative to attack."

"How to do it?" Mo Chenzhao asked in a deep voice.

Feng Tangyue's eyes fixed, and her tone was resolute: "We must take the initiative to expose the queen's conspiracy, take advantage of her impatience, and expose her to the court ministers."

"Is this a gamble?" Mo Chenzhao raised his eyebrows.

Feng Tangyue sneered: "No, this is a battle that must be won."

The next morning, Feng Tangyue directly summoned several trusted ministers and revealed the truth about the Queen Mother's poisoning in the court. She also publicly accused the Queen of colluding with Mingfeng's forces to attempt to murder the Queen Mother.

There was an uproar in the court, and everyone was shocked by this sudden accusation. For a moment, the ministers talked about it and all their eyes turned to the queen.

"This is slander! Feng Tangyue, you have no evidence!" The Queen spoke coldly, staring at Feng Tangyue with eyes like knives.

Feng Tangyue did not back down, and said coldly: "The Queen Mother's illness is the evidence. Mingfeng's people have infiltrated the palace. Queen, do you dare to say that this has nothing to do with you?"

The queen's face turned livid in an instant. She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists: "You are courting death."

"Dead end? Then let's see who can survive to the end." Feng Tangyue's eyes were extremely cold, and there was an unshakable power in her tone.

With Feng Tangyue's revelation, the court was shaken. Many forces supporting the queen began to waver, and those ministers who originally supported the queen dowager stood up and demanded a thorough investigation of the queen's behavior.

"The situation is beginning to tilt in our favor." Mo Chenzhao stood beside Feng Tangyue and said in a low voice.

Feng Tangyue nodded calmly: "The Queen has reached the edge of the cliff, she will not give up easily."

"What will she do next?" Mo Chenzhao asked.

Feng Tangyue's eyes were sharp: "She will go all out and may resort to extreme measures."

Mo Chenzhao's expression changed slightly: "You mean..."

"That's right, a coup." Feng Tangyue said coldly, "She won't wait to be exposed, she will take action directly."

Mo Chenzhao was silent for a moment, then tightened his grip on the hilt of the sword: "Then what should we do?"

Feng Tangyue sneered: "We have already arranged it in advance, let her come."

At night, the atmosphere in the palace became increasingly tense. Feng Tangyue stood in front of the window of the bedroom, looking at the palace gradually disappearing into the night in the distance, and she had already made the final preparations in her heart.

"The Queen will take action soon." She whispered, her tone full of calmness and determination.

Mo Chenzhao stood beside her, his eyes equally stern: "We should also prepare."

Feng Tangyue nodded slightly, then turned and walked out of the palace. The atmosphere in the entire palace seemed to freeze, and the guards around stood nervously at their posts, as if ready to face a storm at any time.

Late at night, a burst of hurried footsteps echoed in the palace. Then, there was a sudden commotion in the palace, and several dark shadows quickly passed through the palace wall and headed straight for the Queen Mother's bedroom.

"She's here." Feng Tangyue said in a low voice, with cold murderous intent in her eyes.

Mo Chenzhao had already drawn his sword and stood beside her, saying firmly, "We are ready."

"This time, we won't retreat again." Feng Tangyue said coldly, then walked forward, ready for the final showdown.

The Queen's actions were completely exposed, and with her final struggle, Feng Tangyue had taken control of the entire situation.

"Next, it's the end." Feng Tangyue's eyes were cold, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She knew that in this life-and-death duel, the balance of victory had begun to tilt towards her.
