This is certain. If Shangguan Yunxiao was really the princess, she would not be so cruel to her. If Leng Qing had not said that before, she would have thought that Shangguan Yunxiao must be the daughter of General Shangguan. In fact, Leng Qing had already solved the mystery of Shangguan Yunxiao's life experience. The reason why she came again was to see if Queen Feng had anything to add.

"You shouldn't have the surname Shangguan. In fact, I only suspected it at the beginning, but later, by chance, I found an ancient book, which recorded the origin of the surname Xia. The blood left by the ancient gods, a powerful and mysterious royal surname. According to the book, they are born noble and inherit the throne. Purple eyes are the symbol of pure blood. And once this blood power awakens, it will burst out with infinite power. I am an emperor. When I see such a thing, I can naturally think of how to use it. Use your blood power to fulfill my dream of unifying the nine states. I have had enough of the days of being inferior to Tianze and Tianqi. As long as I make good use of this powerful blood power, I will definitely be able to realize my dream. I even thought about replacing this blood with my body, but I have never found a secret method to perform this blood exchange..."

"As your desires expand, you also see unknown risks. You have no idea how powerful this blood power is. You are afraid that Shangguan Yunxiao's growth will be out of your control. You want to deprive her of her blood power, but you don't know where to start. When you are at your wits' end, you deliberately destroy her reputation and show your favor. After all, you have spoiled her since she was a child. You think that as long as you do it secretly and don't let her find out your malice, she will still be grateful to you. Even if her blood power awakens one day, you will use it for your benefit." Desire can make people lose their minds, and power can also make people lose their conscience. Queen Feng is an outstanding representative of this. Shangguan Yunxiao's fate is really sad that she has been used by her since she was so young.

After hearing Ling'er's words, Queen Feng was not too surprised. She knew that Shangguan Yunxiao in front of her was different from the past. She had the noble blood of the gods in her body, so no matter how smart and wise she was, in her opinion, it was natural.

This girl who grew up under her watch was smart and dazzling, and was destined to be extraordinary. Didn't she know all this a long time ago

Even though she no longer holds the position of empress, she believes that as long as the person in front of her is willing, she can still lead Feng Kingdom to unify the nine provinces and fulfill her unfulfilled dream.

Everyone has desires. She didn't believe that anyone could be pure and free from desires in the position of an empress. Imperial power is often a catalyst for ambition, and no one can escape the devil living in their heart.

Perhaps it was because he saw the bright future of Feng Kingdom, his originally indifferent eyes became very hot when he looked at Ling'er.

"I won't stay here for long, and I'll be leaving soon." Ling'er had already seen clearly the desire in Queen Phoenix's eyes.

Oh, she has fallen to this point, but she still cares about her unfulfilled ambitions. She must have been poisoned by power. If that's the case, how can she let her continue to maintain such fantasies

Sure enough, as soon as Ling'er finished speaking, Queen Feng's eyes changed immediately.

"What did you say? You want to leave? Where are you going? You can't leave. You are the queen of Feng Country. How can you leave? What will happen to Feng Country if you leave? Are you just going to ignore it? No, no, no, you can't do this. You can't ignore Feng Country. You can't do this. If you leave, Feng Country will definitely be swallowed up by other forces!"

His eyes were bared, his face was pale, and his hands subconsciously grabbed Ling'er's sleeves. His face was haggard, but the fierceness in his eyes was particularly obvious.

Seeing her words with a slightly accusatory tone, Ling'er couldn't help but smile sarcastically.

"Heh, Queen Feng, have you forgotten your own identity at this moment, or have you forgotten my identity? With your attitude, are you begging me, my emperor, or even ordering me?"

Awakened by Ling'er's words, Queen Feng regained her senses and showed a little embarrassment on her face. She subconsciously loosened her hand that was holding the sleeve.

"I... I didn't mean it... I just heard the Queen say you were leaving, and I was so emotional that I did something inappropriate. Please forgive me, Queen." As she spoke, she bent her body slightly and knelt in front of Ling'er. That's right, at this point, she had long lost the qualifications to blame Shangguan Yunxiao. If she wanted to keep the Queen in front of her, the only thing she could do was to beg humbly.

"Your Majesty, please, you cannot leave. If you leave, what will happen to Feng Country and its people? Do you have the heart to let the people of Feng Country be harmed by other forces? Your Majesty, for the sake of the people, please think twice before you act."

Queen Feng has seen through Ling'er's recent actions. Although this new queen is decisive and resolute in her actions, she still has a kind heart. When facing justice, she always subconsciously puts the common people first. So if you want to keep her, you can only start from this point. After all, after all the truth is exposed, she has no mercy in front of Shangguan Yunxiao.

"Ha, in your eyes, aren't the people of Dawn just tools to be used when necessary?" Like now.

"How can someone like you have the nerve to mention the people of Dawn? Don't you think that these words coming out of your mouth are simply a blasphemy?" Originally, she had let it go for Queen Feng. Although she hadn't done anything good, she hadn't actually hurt her and Emperor Shi Tian, but she had to seek humiliation.

The sarcasm in Ling'er's words was very obvious. Queen Feng listened with bitterness on her face. She didn't dare to refute, and she had no way to refute, because Shangguan Yunxiao said it was all true. She pulled the common people out at this moment, wasn't it just to use them to hold back the new queen's steps from leaving

"Your Majesty, I know that I have committed a grave sin. Your Majesty can punish me in any way you want, but please think twice before leaving."

She was already a sinner of the Feng Kingdom, and she could not watch the Feng Kingdom fall in her lifetime. If so, even if she died, she would not have the face to see the late emperor.

"Since you know that you are guilty, you should repent in front of the Bodhisattva. As for the rest, don't worry about it. I am not you. I always put my own interests first. Before you leave, I will arrange everything."

"I, the sinner, thank you for your grace, Her Majesty."

"By the way, can you give me the ancient book you mentioned?" Since the ancient book recorded the bloodline of their Xia family, it might also record something about the demon cultivation world. She wanted to find out who the man with a pair of blood-red eyes who often appeared in her dreams was, and what kind of relationship he had with Emperor Shi Tian.

For some reason, she vaguely felt that the man must have some connection with the demon cultivation world.

"I also came across that book by chance in a cave in the Cloud Sea Forest, but something unexpected happened at that time, so I only read the part about the Purple Eyes and then left in a hurry. If Your Majesty wants to read that book, I can tell you the location of the cave."

Afterwards, Queen Phoenix drew the location of the cave on paper according to her memory.

"This is the approximate location of the cave." He respectfully handed the drawn location map to Ling'er.

"You said that something unexpected happened and you had to withdraw. What kind of accident was it?" Since the book contained such important things, she didn't believe that Queen Feng would be willing to let it go. Unless the situation at that time had already endangered her life.

"To answer your Majesty, that cave is very strange. When I went there, I encountered many incredible things. In fact, it was an accident that we were able to enter the cave. We were just hunting an antelope at the time, but we didn't expect to break into the depths of the Yunhai Forest. Then, I don't know how, I fainted. When we woke up, we were already in the cave.

The cave was very deep and without sunlight, but the brightness inside was enough for people to see normally. Because we didn't know how to get out, we could only move along the light. After walking for half a quarter of an hour, we saw the ancient book. It was placed on a shelf, with two clay monsters on both sides. I couldn't tell what species they belonged to. Out of curiosity, I went up to read the ancient book. However, when I was flipping through the ancient book, the two clay statues moved and attacked me at the same time.

It was as if they were alive at that moment, and their moves were fierce, and the criminal woman's men were no match at all. Just when we were exhausted, miraculously, we saw the antelope we had hunted before. Then, I fainted again.

When I woke up, I was already outside. So, regarding that book, I also read the part that I told you. Speaking of which, this happened more than ten years ago. By the way, you were just born at that time. "

In fact, there were some things that Queen Feng did not dare to say. For example, if she had not known about Zi Mou's bloodline power at that time, she would have killed Shangguan Yunxiao long ago. After all, she was still a baby at that time. Even if the Shangguan Mansion protected her well, there would be opportunities to kill her.

In fact, even if she didn't say it, Ling'er could guess about 70% of it.

And she always had a feeling that it was not an accident that Queen Feng saw that ancient book.

Especially when Queen Feng mentioned the antelope, a shadow of the antelope appeared in Ling'er's mind. It felt as if she had seen the antelope herself.

It seems that she really needs to take a trip to the Cloud Sea Forest.

After leaving the temple, Ling'er immediately arranged all matters related to her departure. She ordered Prime Minister Gu and General Chu to supervise the country and take care of Fengguo's state affairs on her behalf, and to report the state situation to Emperor Tianze every half month.

The same was true for other countries, and Emperor Shi Tian naturally became the only monarch of Tianhe Continent.

After arranging the affairs of Feng Kingdom, Ling'er took Hong Yan and Feng Ling away.

On the official road leading to the sea of clouds and forest, a gorgeous carriage was moving slowly forward.

"Master, are we going back to Yunhai City?" Looking at the road they had walked before, Feng Ling asked with burning eyes.

"Yes and no."

After hearing Ling'er's answer, Feng Ling's mouth twitched unconsciously.

It would be better if she didn't answer. What kind of answer is this...

"We are going to Yunhai Forest now. Yunhai Forest is also part of Yunhai City, so it counts as such."

Ling'er was a little distracted at the moment. The Yunhai Forest and Yanglin Thirteen States, so the closer she got to the Yunhai Forest, the more she couldn't help but think of Emperor Shitian who was far away in the Tianze Imperial Palace.

I wonder what that man is doing now. Does he miss me as much as I miss him

"Master, are you thinking of getting married? You look so lustful, tsk tsk, I feel so sorry for you."

As Feng Ling spoke, he imitated Ling'er's trance-like posture in a mean manner. Next, an apple fell from the sky and hit Feng Ling directly in the face.
