Crazy or What? The Gloomy Prince Kisses Me to Tears Every Night!-Chapter 264 - 253: He Even Dares to Plot Regicide

But soon, Feng Qiwu uttered something that astonished Prime Minister Bai once again. "Not only do I know that my mother was killed by his hand, but I also know that she came from a hidden lineage. Otherwise, how do you think a woman like her mastered those Qimen Dunjia techniques?" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Indeed, Empress Ling Xi was blinded by love, but according to Ling Su, Ling Xi never revealed her origins to Feng Qingyang.

After all, this was the one taboo she could never speak of.

Otherwise, Feng Qingyang wouldn’t have had the audacity to kill Ling Xi back then.

Prime Minister Bai quickly regained his composure and anxiously said to Feng Qiwu, "Are you certain both Empresses hail from a hidden lineage? If that’s true, what should be done if her family seeks revenge for Empress Ling Xi? Would it affect the people of Da Qin?"

If it involves Emperor Feng Qingyang, it might be a minor issue, but if it leads to blame innocents, that would be troublesome.

Feng Qiwu glanced at Feng Qingyang indifferently and then said, "That’s not my concern. The debt belongs to Feng Qingyang; it won’t fall on me. I’m only telling you this for Susu’s sake. As for whether you want to inform Feng Qingyang, it’s up to you."

Now he no longer feared Feng Qingyang discovering some truths.

Because once Feng Qingyang learns that Ling Xi has such a mysterious and powerful background, given his skepticism and paranoia, he would live in fear day and night, unable to eat or rest, and eventually scare himself to death!

However, upon hearing Feng Qiwu’s words, Prime Minister Bai immediately straightened his expression and said, "What does the Crown Prince think of me? Indeed, I navigate various relationships in the officialdom, but this matter concerns the lives of the people, and I won’t act without discretion!"

After speaking, he paused for a few seconds, then said to Feng Qiwu in a deep voice, "Crown Prince, if His Majesty passes away before they appear, do you think... they wouldn’t consider seeking revenge for Empress Ling Xi?"

Every grievance has its perpetrator and victim.

If the true culprit who killed Empress Ling Xi, Feng Qingyang, is dead, her family shouldn’t pursue it further when they arrive, right?

Feng Qiwu was momentarily stunned upon hearing Prime Minister Bai’s words.

He truly hadn’t expected Prime Minister Bai to be so audacious when ruthless.

Killing the emperor, he dared to contemplate.

How laughable that Feng Qingyang thought Prime Minister Bai was loyal to him.

Even he, who prided himself on understanding people’s hearts thoroughly, hadn’t anticipated such thoughts from the cunning old Prime Minister Bai.

After scrutinizing Prime Minister Bai for a while, Feng Qiwu finally said, "I didn’t expect the Prime Minister to be so bold, but I’m not them, how can I know their thoughts?"

"Your Highness speaks too highly, as they say, different paths cannot be worked on together. The path I walk with His Majesty has diverged; naturally, it is time to part ways." He never forgot his official role was for the people’s sake.

Feng Qiwu merely cast him a glance and then said, "Even so, I advise you not to act rashly for now..."

"Why?" Prime Minister Bai asked, looking at him in surprise.

He thought the Crown Prince would be eager for His Majesty to die soon.

"Because I don’t want to sit in that position just yet," Feng Qiwu said plainly.

Currently, he’s busy cultivating and training his subordinates, spending evenings with Susu. Time is insufficient. If he becomes emperor now, he doesn’t know how much time would be wasted on state affairs.

Seeing Feng Qiwu say this, Prime Minister Bai was full of confusion.

He truly couldn’t understand why the Crown Prince, with the strength to ascend the throne and a heart full of hatred for the emperor, wouldn’t be willing to become emperor now?
