"Was it Consort Yu’s doing?"
The Empress and Sun Senior Palace Lady exchanged a glance, their expressions puzzled and confused.
The Creation Golden Pill had not yet been concocted, and logically Yu Youhan should be at the Capital Camp acting as a protector. How did she suddenly end up at Fengqiu, and even destroy the imperial mausoleum?
As the Capital Commandant in charge of patrolling the mausoleums, Feng Jinyuan would lose his head if something went wrong. Naturally, he wouldn’t speak recklessly about such things.
There could only be one explanation...
Wu Lie was likely hiding in the imperial mausoleum, so Yu Youhan acted decisively!
The Empress fixed her gaze on Feng Jinyuan and said in a deep voice, "What exactly is going on, explain everything clearly. If you conceal anything, not even your uncle can save you!"
"I wouldn’t dare!"
Feng Jinyuan’s body trembled slightly.
At this point, he didn’t dare harbor any ulterior motives, and spilled everything like beans from a bamboo tube.
"After the Imperial Consort appeared, she first asked me if I had seen Chen Mo. Upon receiving a negative answer, she flew into a rage, saying things about regicide..."
"I couldn’t stop her no matter how hard I tried, I could only watch as she leveled the imperial mausoleum..."
So that’s it!
The Empress understood.
It seems Chen Mo found Wu Lie’s location and informed Yu Youhan!
As for the "tried my best" part, that was purely Feng Jinyuan embellishing his actions. If he had really dared to stop them, he’d probably have vanished by now!
The Empress didn’t dwell on these details and pressed on, "And then? Did Consort Yu and Chen Mo come out safely?"
"Hmm?"
Feng Jinyuan was momentarily stunned.
He had assumed that such treasonous speech and behavior would surely anger the Empress greatly, but she seemed unconcerned about it and was more worried about the safety of the Consort and Chen Mo?
Bam—
Seeing him delay, the Empress slammed the table, like thunder bursting forth!
Her phoenix eyes shone with a layer of gold, her palace gown fluttered without wind, the powerful pressure almost solidified the air!
"Answer me!"
"Did you see Chen Mo or not!"
Looking at the clear palm print on the rosewood table, Sun Senior Palace Lady was stunned.
Her Majesty the Empress was clearly just an ordinary person, when did her cultivation become so strong?
"Your, Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"
Feng Jinyuan shivered, prostrating on the ground, and said:
"To Your Majesty’s response, ever since Consort Yu went underground, she hasn’t come back up, and Mr. Chen hasn’t appeared from the beginning to end!"
"However, about half an hour after the Consort went down, the area under the imperial mausoleum suddenly collapsed, forming a pit several tens of feet across, and a blood-red creature emerged, seemingly headed straight for the Capital City!"
