Xiao Shoufu’s eyes became even deeper. Old things from the past instantly flashed through his mind. One moment, he recalled the old incident that happened in the imperial mausoleum 21 years ago, and the next moment, he recalled the words Kang Wang had told him. His mood was chaotic, and there was more or less a trace of pity in his heart.
If only Feng Yang had done it this time… How good would that be!
Xiao Shoufu sighed faintly in his heart. He clenched the fist hidden in his sleeve and tried his best to calm down, persuading himself to be patient… His thousands of thoughts turned into a determination to break through the cauldron and sink the boat.
He slowly raised his head without any change in expression. His gaze chased after Gu Yanfei and Feng Yang’s departing figures and finally landed on Feng Yang’s thin but tall back.
As sharp as Feng Yang was, she could naturally feel the burning gaze behind her, but she didn’t turn around or stop. Just like that, she passed through the mausoleum door and the Long’en Gate with Gu Yanfei at a moderate speed.
After arriving at the palace from the imperial mausoleum, the tired Emperor walked in the direction of the Taiji Palace in the center. The others also walked to their palaces under the guidance of the palace maids.
“Your Highness, Second Lady Gu, this way.”
Ruo Su walked at the front calmly and led the way for Feng Yang and Gu Yanfei.
At dusk in April, the evening wind was slightly cold.
Gu Yanfei and Feng Yang walked forward confidently. Their sleeves and skirts were puffed up by the wind, and their skirts fluttered like butterflies. Even the hair at their temples was messed up by the mountain wind.
The old and young moved freely, and the two of them looked surprisingly coordinated when they stood together.
Feng Yang had come to this palace many times. She didn’t like to come here. Every time she came here, she would think of that night 21 years ago, when blood dyed the palace.
But in order to worship Emperor Taizu, she had no choice but to come every year.
As Feng Yang walked forward, she told Gu Yanfei about this past that would never fade in the depths of her memories from 21 years ago. “At that time, Father had just died and left me a will to assist in the government. The previous Emperor was indignant and wanted to kill me…” 𝑓𝑟𝘦𝘦𝓌𝘦𝑏𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮
At that time, because of the death of Emperor Taizu, she was immersed in grief and couldn’t extricate herself. The previous Emperor thought that he had an opportunity to secretly mobilize his troops, but he didn’t expect that his actions couldn’t be hidden from Feng Yang’s ears at all.
At that time, Feng Yang still had some feelings for the previous Emperor. She was also betting that the previous Emperor had ulterior motives but wouldn’t have the guts to do it.
However, the previous Emperor still attacked her. He led his troops to surround the palace, but he was so afraid that he didn’t dare face her personally…
Feng Yang’s eyes were cold, and there were faint wind and lightning surging, as if she had returned to that night.
Gu Yanfei was an obedient listener. She quietly listened to Feng Yang.
She couldn’t help but be curious. She leaned over and whispered to Feng Yang, “Your Highness, I heard that Emperor Taizu planned to pass the throne to you when he was in power?”
Feng Yang could tell that Gu Yanfei was purely curious. She smiled at the little girl, and her white eyebrows raised, but she didn’t comment.
Seeing that Feng Yang didn’t look unhappy, Gu Yanfei blinked and asked with a smile, “You didn’t want it?”
Feng Yang smiled brightly, her eyes gentle, as if this was an extremely interesting question.
She raised her chin and looked up at the evening sky with a fierce gaze. She said bluntly, “Of course, I wanted it.”
“Who wouldn’t want this supreme position?!”
“I’m just a mortal, not God. I’m greedy and ambitious.”
Feng Yang’s words were too straightforward, making Ruo Su, who was leading the way in front, extremely shocked. She suppressed the urge to turn around and continued walking forward.
“You’re right!” Gu Yanfei agreed deeply and nodded.
If it were her, she would also find it quite interesting to be an empress.
Feng Yang didn’t feel that she had said anything shocking at all. Her expression was very calm, and her eyes seemed to be burning with two burning flames.
Ever since she was born and was sensible, Emperor Taizu personally taught her. He taught her to read and write, and taught her martial arts to strengthen her body. He told her that there was nothing about women that was inferior to men. As long as she was capable enough, she could go to the battlefield or stand in the royal court.
She didn’t disappoint Emperor Taizu’s expectations. Emperor Taizu often said that she was the daughter he was most proud of.
She often heard from the generals and officials beside Emperor Taizu that it was a pity that she wasn’t a man, or else…
But Emperor Taizu had never said such a thing.
In the 29th year of the Heavenly Calendar, when Emperor Taizu first suggested in the royal court to abolished the Crown Prince and appoint her as the Crown Princess, Feng Yang was tempted. He also thought that she would be an even more outstanding Emperor than the previous Emperor, but the officials objected.. Moreover, at that time, the Great Jin Dynasty was filled with danger, both internal and external…
