I traveled to the era of female supremacy and became a bad woman

Princess's Mansion,

Feng Zhaoyun dismounted, looking travel-worn, and casually tossed the reins to a guard before entering the mansion.

At this time in the main hall,

Bai Jinzhi and Qing Mu sat to one side, seemingly talking about something. Bai Jinzhi's handsome brows were furrowed, and his expression was not good...

The two fell silent when they saw Feng Zhaoyun enter.

Feng Zhaoyun took off her cloak and tossed it onto the armchair. "Grandpa, what are you talking about?"

Qingmu stood up. "I'm going to rest now. I'm too old to waste time with you young people."

Seeing Qingmu walk out of the main hall, Bai Jinzhi stood up and asked, "Your Highness is back. Is there any progress?"

Feng Zhaoyun found a chair and sat down. The servants quickly brought out fragrant tea, but she only glanced at it and said, "Bring it cold."

The servant understood and quickly went to get her a new cup. She took it and drank it all in one gulp, as if she were very thirsty.

When I looked up to drink my tea, the dark lines on my neck were shockingly noticeable...

Bai Jinzhi's heart tightened upon seeing this, and he became even more anxious...

Feng Zhaoyun said, "You seem quite carefree, not even worried about your younger brother."

Bai Jinzhi lowered his eyes slightly. "How does Your Highness know that your subject doesn't care about his own younger brother?"

Feng Zhaoyun sneered, "Speak, what were you and Grandpa talking about just now?"

Bai Jinzhi did not answer, but stood up and walked to Feng Zhaoyun. “Your Highness, Feng Yaoxue only wants the imperial power. Your subject has a plan. I wonder if Your Highness would like to hear it?”

Feng Zhaoyun slightly raised her eyes, her expression cold. "You may all step back."

Jiu Yi understood and cleared out the servants from inside the house, standing guard outside the door.

After Bai Jinzhi finished speaking, Feng Zhaoyun sneered twice, "Fine, I'll trust you this once. I will give the order that if anything happens, you will all be buried with me."

Bai Jinzhi bowed to her, "Of course, Your Majesty obeys."

Feng Zhaoyun stood up and walked out of the main hall. She was exhausted after searching day and night for several days…

This group vanished as if they had disappeared into thin air, leaving no trace. The fact that they could hide so well suggests that their scheme was not something they had planned overnight.

It seems that Feng Yaoxue began preparing the day she returned to Kyoto...

Two days later,

Feng Zhaoyun entered the palace for the morning court session.

She was dressed in the robes of a crown princess, and as soon as she entered, she attracted the attention of the officials.

Now she is second only to the emperor, destined to be the crown prince, and no princess can rival her. Becoming the empress is only a matter of time.

Although she deliberately wore a high-necked inner layer, her fair neck was still covered with black lines, which looked quite eerie.

An official approached Prime Minister Jiang and whispered, "This humble official greets the Prime Minister. Does the Prime Minister know what has happened to Her Highness the Crown Princess recently? Why is there a mark on her neck..."

Prime Minister Jiang glanced cautiously at Feng Zhaoyun, and seeing that she was sitting upright in her chair and not looking at them, she dared to speak, "I heard that Consort Bai has been missing for several days."

Official 1: "No wonder not only the Xiao family members have disappeared in recent days, but even the Duke has vanished."

Prime Minister Jiang said, "That concubine, Lady Bai, was originally ordered by His Majesty to be imprisoned in the royal villa, but she has disappeared for some unknown reason. The Crown Princess has secretly mobilized troops and has been searching for her for several days. As for the neck... even I don't know."

At this moment, Zhou Fuhai came out and said, "Your Majesty has arrived."

The officials knelt and bowed, shouting, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

The Empress walked in and sat down in a chair. "Get up."

She glanced at Feng Zhaoyun below her, "Crown Princess!"

Feng Zhaoyun stepped forward and said, "Your subject is here."

The Empress asked, "How's the case I asked you to investigate coming along?"

Feng Zhaoyun bowed and said, "Your Majesty, there has been no progress yet."

The Empress was furious. "I ordered you to investigate the case, but you secretly mobilized troops to search for Bai Mohan. Do you really think I don't know?"

As he spoke, an inkstone came crashing down, and the officials, terrified, immediately knelt on the ground, pleading, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger."

In the main hall, only Feng Zhaoyun remained standing. She glanced at the inkstone at her feet, then suddenly straightened up and sneered, "Mother, what's wrong with me mobilizing my own troops and seeking my own concubine?"

The Empress was even more furious when she saw her like this. "As the Crown Princess, what right do you have to command troops! I personally ordered Bai Mohan to be imprisoned. You rebellious daughter! Are you going to defy the imperial decree now!"

Feng Zhaoyun looked at the Empress above him and said, "Your subject has always followed Mother's teachings, but Mother has repeatedly pressured me, and I... am exhausted..."

After saying this, Feng Yiran and the others, who were kneeling, were all stunned.

Feng Yiran hurriedly knelt and crawled out of the ranks, "Your Majesty, I have heard that the Crown Princess has been ill recently due to the exhaustion of investigating the case. She is delirious and spoke incoherently. Please forgive her and treat her."

Feng Zhaoyun gave Feng Yiran a cold look.

The Empress sneered, "With Qingmu by my side, what illness can't be cured? I think she's just trying to rebel!"

Feng Yiran was about to continue pleading when Feng Zhaoyun interrupted her, "So what if it is? Since Mother Queen does not grant my wish, I shall sit on the Empress's throne!"

Zhou Fuhai immediately stepped forward and scolded, "You audacious young lady, do you know what you're saying! Kneel down now!"

Feng Zhaoyun waved his hand, and a group of soldiers rushed into the main hall.

The civil and military officials were startled and quickly stood up and stepped aside.

This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard. The throne was destined for the Crown Princess sooner or later; why would she seize power? Was it truly because of that concubine...?

The Empress stood up, pointing at Feng Zhaoyun, "Rebellious daughter! You really intend to rebel!"

At this moment, not a single person in the hall dared to speak up and stop it.

The Empress looked around and sighed helplessly.

Feng Zhaoyun said, "Mother, I will make my own decisions about things from now on. There is no need for you to worry about it. Please step down."

Zhou Fuhai stood in front of the Empress, "Your Highness, please don't do this. If you realize your mistake now, you still have a chance!"

Feng Zhaoyun gave a wicked smile, "Opportunity? How dare a eunuch like you speak of opportunity!"

Empress, "You!"

Feng Zhaoyun slightly raised her chin and calmly said, "Take it."
