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

As soon as Feng Zhaoyun said this, the Third Princess's followers hurriedly looked at the Emperor's husband. Naturally, these looks and actions could not escape the Empress's eyes.

The emperor never even looked at them from beginning to end, as if it had nothing to do with him.

At this time, Master Ma crawled forward two steps on his knees and kowtowed several times, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Even though we can't find the Third Princess, it doesn't mean that it wasn't the work of the Crown Princess! This bet doesn't count!"

Feng Zhaoyun also wondered what the charm of the Third Princess Feng Yaoxue was, that she had such a group of loyal dogs. "Master Ma, you are truly stubborn and stubborn. Now that the evidence is before you, you still want to frame me!"

At this time, the other three princesses' followers all kowtowed, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

The Empress's expression was calm, showing no anger. She casually said, "The Crown Princess has just been canonized, and already so many people with ulterior motives have appeared, stirring up trouble in the court. This is truly despicable. Even if this bet doesn't count, framing the Crown Princess is a capital crime with the confiscation of property and extermination of the clan. You will be handed over to the Crown Princess for disposal."

At this time, Lord Ma collapsed to the ground, and the others all knelt before Feng Zhaoyun, "Your Highness! Please forgive me, I will definitely follow your Highness's orders from now on!"

Nangong Shang looked at Feng Zhaoyun, afraid that Feng Zhaoyun would be soft-hearted. Regardless of the crowd in front of him, he quickly said, "Your Highness, please don't be soft-hearted. If you were in someone else's position, they wouldn't be soft-hearted. What these people did is to kill you."

Feng Zhaoyun knew what he was up to, but even if he hadn't advised her otherwise, she wouldn't have shown mercy to these people. So she said coldly, "Come on! First, drag this secret guard out and quarter him! As for these gentlemen... strip them of their official uniforms, drag them out... and behead them! Their families, exile them all."

At this moment, the guards stepped forward and restrained several people. Lord Ma hurriedly shouted at the Emperor, "Emperor! Please save us! Please save us! We are doing this for the Third Princess!"

The emperor ignored them, didn't even look at them, and had a look of hurt father on his face. The voices of several people became farther and farther away, and they were all dragged out of the hall.

The Empress looked at Lord Zhang, the Governor of Kyoto. "The Third Princess' disappearance is a serious matter. I will leave it to Lord Zhang. You must find the Third Princess and ensure her safety, no matter the cost."

Lord Zhang, the governor of Kyoto, clasped his fists and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Feng Zhaoyun looked at the Emperor and said, "Father, do you understand now that it was not me who did this? You have always insisted that it was me who did this. Why did you do this now?"

The matter was clear, and Feng Zhaoyun's words were very obvious. The emperor glanced at the empress, and seeing that she was unmoved, he stood up and walked towards Feng Zhaoyun. Just as he was about to hold her hand, Nangong Shang stood up and looked at him fiercely.

The Emperor withdrew his hand tremblingly, a kind smile on his face. "Yun'er, don't blame your father. The thief was arrested by the Dali Temple. Your father didn't know he would actually bite others at will. Will you forgive your father?"

At this moment, Feng Zhaoyun raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Your son will naturally forgive your father."

When the officials from Dali Temple and other places heard this, they felt helpless. How could they put the blame on us?

The emperor's husband looked at Feng Zhaoyun's expression at this moment and felt uneasy. Feng Zhaoyun actually forgave him so easily. This smile seemed weird to him no matter how he looked at it.

The Empress also spoke at this time, "Your Majesty, I will confine you to Danhe Palace for three months and fine you one year's salary. As for Yaoxue, you can rest assured. She is my daughter, and I will do my best to send people to find her."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor knelt down immediately and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I have been bewitched by the thieves and now I am willing to be confined. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

The Queen's eyes remained calm and her face remained unchanged. She nodded and said, "Go away. Reflect on your actions for the next few months."

After saying this, the emperor was taken away and sent back to Danhe Palace.

The matter was settled and all the officials left.

The empress sent someone to invite Feng Zhaoyun to the imperial study, while Nangong Shang waited outside the palace.

After entering, the empress was sitting at the desk. Seeing Feng Zhaoyun come in, she did not raise her eyes and said coldly, "Do you know where your third sister is?"

Feng Zhaoyun shook his head, "I really don't know."

The Queen put down the document in her hand and said, "Then where did she go? Why did she disappear inexplicably?"

Feng Zhaoyun was hesitant. He had not reported the matter of Bai Mohan since he came back from the south, fearing that someone would take advantage of it and make a fuss about it. However, Feng Yaoxue should be in Bai Mohan's hands, and he really didn't know her current situation.

The Queen noticed her hesitation, her expression slightly angry, and her voice was cold, "Yun'er, tell the truth!"

Feng Zhaoyun thought for a moment, then said, "Mother, I have something that I haven't reported to you yet."

The Queen asked, "What is it?"

Feng Zhaoyun looked at Zhou Fuhai who was standing beside the empress. The empress naturally understood what she meant and dismissed Zhou Fuhai. Now they were the only ones in the imperial study.

Seeing that no one was around, Feng Zhaoyun spoke up, "Mother, my Third Sister secretly led a group there long before I led my troops to suppress bandits in the south. Her goal was to win over the bandit leader and assassinate me. The bandit leader said that my Third Sister was their backer all those years ago. The southern bandits pay tribute to my Third Sister every year. My Third Sister and I met in the south before, but we separated during the last bandit suppression campaign. I truly don't know where my Third Sister ended up."

The empress was shocked. She didn't expect that Feng Yaoxue had left the capital a month ago, and her purpose was to assassinate her siblings. There was no way the emperor didn't know about it.

Recalling the behavior of her husband and others today, the empress suddenly understood. She had been through the same thing and naturally knew the means to fight for the throne.

But no one expected that this father and daughter, who were usually gentle and virtuous, were so cruel in private. Their power was so intertwined that they even got involved with the southern bandits, doing such evil things.

Ultimately, it's all for the chair you're sitting on.

Thinking of this, the Queen looked up at Feng Zhaoyun, "Yun'er...it's your mother who is sorry for you. She didn't know that you had been in danger several times." The Queen looked guilty.

Feng Zhaoyun's heart softened. He had to admit that his mother was really good to him. Even with what happened today, he could feel his mother's favoritism towards him in the main hall.

Feng Zhaoyun stepped forward, walked to the Empress's desk, squatted beside her legs, and held her hand. "Mother...I am deeply grateful to you. Please don't say that."

Feng Zhaoyun's sudden action startled the empress. Her eyes were exactly the same as Qingyun's. She then shook Feng Zhaoyun's hand, "What I regret most in my life is not protecting your father. I lost him, so I must never lose you again."

Feng Zhaoyun heard the Empress talk about her father for the first time, so she asked curiously, "Mother, father...what exactly was the cause of his death? I don't remember much about what happened before I fell off the cliff."

When the empress heard her question, her eyes dimmed, as if she was recalling something from the past. She sighed and said, "It's okay. I've never told you before that your father was Qingyun, the son of the legendary doctor Qingmu. Not long after I ascended the throne, your father suddenly died from a poison attack. I've searched for the poison for years, but I still can't find where it came from. I've never even seen it. All those who were related to him at the time also died overnight, and I... can't find the perpetrator."

Feng Zhaoyun finally understood that her father must have been very favored by her mother in the past, so he was poisoned to death. The biggest suspect was none other than her husband, the emperor.

But wasn't my father the son of a miracle doctor? Could he not cure this poison? "Mother, since my father is the son of a miracle doctor, he must be a skilled doctor. What poison can't he cure? Why did he die from the poison?"

After hearing this, the Queen touched her face and said helplessly, "Your father and your grandfather were not on good terms. He didn't learn your grandfather's skills. He broke with your grandfather long ago for my sake. It was I... who failed to protect him..."

The atmosphere suddenly became gloomy. The Queen sighed and helped Feng Zhaoyun up. "Alright, Yun'er, you can go back first. From now on, your mother will protect you."

Feng Zhaoyun was deeply moved when she heard the Queen say this, and nodded, "Yes, mother, Yun'er... will also do her best to protect you."

The Queen seemed to have not expected her to say that and laughed out loud, "Okay!"

After the two talked for a while, Feng Zhaoyun left the imperial study.

At this time, Nangong Shang was sitting outside the door. I don't know how he got Zhou Fuhai to bring him a chair, serve him fragrant tea and snacks, and he was sitting in the center of the imperial study, looking very uncomfortable.

After Feng Zhaoyun came out, Zhou Fuhai's face was filled with joy. He quickly stepped forward to pay his respects. "Your Highness, you are finally here. Your Highness Nangong has been waiting for you for a while."

Zhou Fuhai looked happy and was very glad to see Feng Zhaoyun come out. The Crown Princess was already very difficult to serve, but he didn't expect that the Crown Princess would be even more difficult to serve.

Feng Zhaoyun nodded, and seeing Nangong Shang's leisurely look, he nodded, "Thank you for your help, eunuch."

Then, the two of them walked out of the palace and got on the carriage back home.
