Feng Ning Yan sneered as she threw the lotus flower lamp in front of Hua Ruyu, and shook the slip of paper in her hand:
"It's been hard on you. You can't even protect yourself and you want to send a message to tell your master to withdraw those assassins at the back of the mountain. "Unfortunately, it's too late."
She turned her head and pointed at the distant, sky-high platform, "Do you see that? His Highness King Yu is here. He has personally led the operation to destroy the assassins. They will not be able to return alive. This is all because of you." What do you think your master will do with you? "
Hua Ruyu gazed at the lights of the Flying Star Platform, one bright and one dark. Seeing that familiar figure, she hated him so much that her eyes turned red.
"Feng Ningyan, I hate you!"
"Hate me? "Why do you hate me?" Feng Ningyan sneered. "Just because I snatched away your beloved Your Highness, Prince Yu?"
Hua Ruyu clenched her teeth, and said with hatred: "On the night of the banquet, you said that you'd help me out with everything, but you said what you did, and in the end, it was you who became Princess Yu! On the day of the meeting with the Feng family, the empress had already decided on my behalf. It was just a single step, yet you destroyed even the chance for me to be her secondary wife! In a match of sisters, why can't you help me fulfill my infatuation for His Highness! "
Feng Ning Yan laughed loudly.
"Why? Because you don't deserve it. You wanted to seduce Your Highness to marry you, but I ruined it; so you tried to ruin my face with that poisonous mint drop, and you ended up eating your own medicine. After entering the capital, my father asked me to arrange a place for you in the prince's mansion. I have already warned you, yet you secretly made an enemy out of others and stole the《 Records of Organs》 to harm the prince. This piece of 'infatuation' of yours, feeding it to dogs, even dogs find it stinky! "
"You …"
Hua Ruyu gritted her teeth as her face turned green and white. She was completely exposed by Feng Ning Yan, and she was ashamed. She hated herself for not having a knife in her hand so she could kill Feng Ning Yan.
After a moment of silence, her unwillingness and hatred quickly gave birth to a deformed mindset.
I can't have it, and I won't let you!
She suddenly gave a charming smile. "Why am I not worthy? Birds of a feather flock together. Your highness King Yu and I are originally the same kind of people. "
"You really know how to put gold on your face." Feng Ningyan smiled disdainfully.
Hua Ruyu rolled her eyes and sinisterly said, "It looks like you're still unwilling to face reality. Do you think that Lu Ruo's death was only because of my scheme, Su Lai and Mo Er's execution?"
Feng Ningyan was shocked in her heart. "What do you mean?"
"Hmph …" Hua Ruyu coldly looked at Feng Ningyan, "Tell me, the《 Mechanical Arts》 that Lu Ruo stole is fake. I trusted you, that's why I sent a message to the people outside. "Don't you think, why would I believe what you just said?"
Feng Ning Yan was startled and couldn't help but clench her fists.
She had originally thought that Hua Ruyu would not believe the lie she made up about the 'Mechanical Records', which was based solely on luck and the will of the heavens.
However, it was obvious that Hua Ruyu would not believe it so easily for no reason.
"That's because when I heard you say that the [Mechanical Compass] was fake, a question in my mind was immediately answered. Cousin, don't you think that it's too easy for Lu Ruo to find something as important as the [Mechanical Arts]? "
The moment she said this, Feng Ning Yan's entire body shuddered.
How could Imperial Concubine Min and Shen Lingjue, the two generations of people who spared no effort to look after the "Mechanical Records" of the Thousand Buddha Pavilion, have hidden it in his usual study?
Also, the secret compartment is so simple, even Green Ruo can be found.
He could have placed the [Mechanical Manual] in the Thousand Blessings Pavilion and it would have been absolutely safe under the protection of that Luo Yunxuan.
Therefore, there was only one explanation — the "Mechanical Apertures" in the secret compartment of the study was fake! This was a trap in itself!
She didn't think that the lie she used to flaunt Flower Rain would actually turn out to be true.
Because it was real, Hua Ruyu believed it so quickly.
Seeing that Feng Ningyan seemed to understand something, Hua Ruyu smiled sinisterly.
"I had originally thought that the recovered《 Mechanical Records》 should be placed in a place that would be very difficult to find, so I did my best to get Su Lai to come close to one of your trusted aides. Now that he thought about it, the reason that Green Ruo had found it so quickly was because she had fallen into King Yu's trap. If she hadn't found the fake《 Records of Organs》 so quickly, she might have been able to live for a while longer and enjoy life with Su Lai for a while longer … "It was King Yu who harmed her …"
"You shut up!"
Feng Ning Yan couldn't hold it in any longer. She slapped Hua Ruyu until she fell to the ground, blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.
"Haha …" Seeing that she finally came to a realization, Hua Ruyu felt extremely happy in her heart.
"My good older cousin, do you think that I and Your Highness Yu are compatible? "We are all cold-blooded, sinister, and ruthless. No matter what methods we use, anyone can sell …"
Feng Ningyan only felt the sky spinning and the earth spinning. Her hands were trembling violently, and when she thought of the state of Lu Lu's death, her tears couldn't help but gush out.
She turned her back so that no one could see her tears.
"Chu Zhao, take good care of this woman."
She gritted her teeth and gave the order, then quickly walked towards the Star Platform.
She only had one thought, and that was to immediately meet Shen Lingjue.
Even though she didn't know where to start or where to ask him, she just wanted to see him right away.
Tonight, around the Star Platform, there were palace guards tightly protecting her, but when they saw Feng Ning Yan, the guards didn't stop her and allowed her to smoothly walk up the Star Platform.
Shen Ling Jue was standing on the balcony with his hands behind his back, the golden flag was fluttering on the flagpole, the wind lamp had already been extinguished, everything seemed to have settled down.
Feng Ning Yan stood at the top of the stairs, looking at his back. Such a majestic and upright figure that she could rely on, caused her heart to ache with pain.
At this time, Jing Qi was reporting the matter to Shen Lingjue, and Shen Lingjue seemed to have sensed it. He suddenly turned around and saw Feng Ning Yan standing at the stairs.
Her eyes were a mixture of sadness, resentment, disappointment, and other emotions.
Seeing her expression, Shen Ling Jue was slightly startled, but quickly walked in front of her.
"Princess, has the matter with Little Jian in Water already ended?"
Feng Ning Yan looked at him blankly, then choked and nodded.
"Mm …" It was over. "Your Highness, I would like to ask you if the 'Mechanical Records' in the secret compartment of the study is fake …"
Shen Ling Jue looked at her silently, not surprised that she knew about this matter.
She was so clever that she would understand this sooner or later.
"This King originally wanted to wait for today's matter to end and then tell you … "Sorry, I shouldn't have hidden it from you in advance. Otherwise …"
"Otherwise, Lu Ruo wouldn't have died!"
When Feng Ningyan heard him personally admitting it, she finally broke down. She could no longer hold back her tears, and grabbed onto Shen Lingjue's collar!
"You bastard! Why are you doing this! You are the one who killed Green Ruo! "
"Even if you want the enemy to obtain the fake《 Mechanical Arts》, and then send people into a trap, why don't you let the well-trained people deal with Hua Ruyu and Su? "Why is it that you have no idea at all about it …"
"Return my green phoenix to me!" Feng Ning Yan raised her fist and punched Shen Ling Jue in the face.
