The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 1402 Meet again, strangers (1)
Inside the carriage, there was darkness.

But this darkness is not scary, the scary thing is——

He obviously opened his eyes, but he couldn't see the light in front of his eyes, and couldn't see the way ahead.

At that moment just now, he was clearly so close to her, but he was restrained stiffly, so he could only try his best to restrain the urge to walk towards her, even if it was——

You can't speak a word to him openly.

At this moment, he finally knew where the furthest distance between him and Chu Xunyang was. It wasn't when fire and water were incompatible in the previous life, when she killed him fiercely and pushed him away, but it existed in the present moment, right in front of his eyes. , when he could clearly hear her voice and see her face—

She and him are strangers.

In the darkness, Feng Qi kept his eyes open, looking at the bottomless night in front of him.

His breathing was so shallow that it was almost inaudible, until Princess Fanchang groped and crawled over from the darkness uneasy, raised her hand, and pressed it on his slightly cold fingertips.

"Brother Huang? Are you - okay?" Princess Fanchang tried to speak, and asked cautiously.

There was a slight uncertainty in her voice, but the nervous concern couldn't be concealed.

"It's okay!" Feng Qi responded, and only then did he feel that his breathing, which was suppressed by something, gradually became smoother.

He first went to see Emperor Chongming, and then because he knew that the Empress Dowager's bedroom was burned, he rushed over to take a look as a matter of routine.

At that time, the queen mother had already moved to the other hall.

After going through this turmoil, this Fengshuang old man didn't sleep all night, and now he was sitting under the lamp with a gloomy face, and his hands were twirling the beads with unsteady movements.

"Grandson has met the imperial grandmother!" Feng Qi stopped at the door, and then bowed down.

Because you belonged to the imperial family in the previous life, he is well aware of the cruel and ruthless intrigues in the royal family. If Princess Fanchang is the unshirkable responsibility he owes to Fengqi's deity, then——

For anyone else, he was unwilling to waste a little more thought on dealing with it.

Under the turmoil of the imperial power, where would there be any sincere feelings?
The Empress Dowager was upset when she heard his voice and suddenly raised her head, seeing his pale face, she immediately frowned in displeasure, waved her hands and said, "It's so late at night, why are you here? Come and sit next to Ai's house!"

In all fairness, after entering Beijing this time, the Queen Mother treated him pretty well. On the day he came back, because of Princess Fanchang's marriage, he specifically asked her.Because the matter was related to the two countries, the Queen Mother was actually embarrassed and hesitant at the time, but in the end she nodded and went out to persuade Emperor Chongming.

Feng Qi didn't know what the old man was really thinking, and only understood it as her debt and compensation to this grandson who had experienced too much human affection too early.

He walked over, sat down beside the queen mother, and said courteously and respectfully: "A lot of things happened in the palace tonight. I heard that the ancestor and the father were quite frightened. The grandson is incompetent and cannot relieve the ancestor's worries. Come and say hello."

What happened that night was indeed a big blow to the Queen Mother.

Concubine Sun Shu and Fengxu rose up to force the palace, and almost wiped out the entire royal bloodline. If it was someone else, it would be fine, but it was the child she once loved the most. Thinking about it, it was both infuriating and chilling.

The empress dowager felt bitter in her heart, and could hardly hide the expression on her face. She sighed wearily, patted the back of his hand and said, "There is no danger, but fortunately, it's all over. Unfortunately for the family, such a thing— —”

She instinctively wanted to find someone to complain about, but she glanced casually and saw Feng Qi's pale face, so she consciously stopped talking, forced a smile and said: "It's over, just forget it, in the future Don't mention it any more, but you, I don't look good after seeing this, does the imperial doctor come to the palace every day to show you?"

"It's an old problem, it doesn't matter, the ancestors don't have to worry about it." Feng Qi said, his attitude was polite and alienated.

The Empress Dowager has lived for so many years, her eyes are vicious. In fact, from the first day he returned to Beijing, she saw his indifference from the child's attitude. Thinking about the past, she sighed and said : "You take good care of it. In this world, there is nothing more important than your own body. You don't need to worry about your father's affairs, your brothers' affairs, and the affairs of the palace."

When she said this, at first hearing, it would make people feel uncomfortable, but after careful recollection——

But it was clearly reminding him to stay away from the muddy water of this pool.

The Empress Dowager is in a high position, so it is not surprising that she will restrict the actions of the princes below. The former Empress Luo would also do similar things. What surprised Feng Qi was her expression and tone.

This is not a simple warning or order, but the most helpless and heartfelt admonition from an old man, an elder.

Feng Qi's fingers holding the tea bowl stiffened for a moment, then he couldn't help but slowly raised his eyes to look at her.

The queen mother just happened to look over.

The two of them looked at each other, and she just showed a smile and said earnestly: "The Ai family knows that you were wronged in the early years, but things that shouldn't have happened have happened, and now there is no way to undo it, you Whether you want to blame your father or the grandmother of Aijia, that's understandable, but Qi'er, grandmother is old, and seeing that there are not many years to live again, don't think it's Aijia's fault. Deliberately wronged you, listen to what the Ai family said - don't meddle in this chaotic situation, even if you are worried about the past - "

As the queen mother said, the expression on her face became more and more solemn, "Live well, there is nothing more important than this at the moment. With such a powerful position, you may feel that It is glory and achievement, but it has been a long time, until you are like your father now, when you find that everyone around you is plotting against you, even your wife and children are plotting against you in every possible way - then it will be too late gone."

It is true that these words are just her heartfelt words.
