C147

Feng Ningyan was stunned beyond words. Looking at the emperor, she couldn't help but smile sadly.

"Your Majesty, could it be that the loyalty of the Feng family can be wiped away with a single sentence from Prince Cheng and Hua Ruyu?"

"Ling Jue and I risked our lives and entered deep into the Southern Sea Island. We found evidence of the crown prince's rebellion and promptly went back to the capital to save him. Have you forgotten about this?"

"Ever since I was young, my father has taught me that the Feng family only has loyal and patriotic generals. There are no unfaithful and unfilial people. He is currently bitterly guarding the southern gate of the Da Su Empire, training his troops day and night, just for the sake of the Da Su Empire's peace and stability, how can you suspect such a loyal general! "

The Emperor was already frightened stiff by the crown prince's conspiracy. As long as it involved a dispute over the imperial power, even if there was a false accusation, he would listen to it as if it were true. There was no way to judge the outcome, because what he was most afraid of was himself being removed from the throne.

At this moment, Feng Ning Yan was questioning him again and again, making him speechless.

Seeing that the empress dowager was shocked and the emperor was speechless, the imperial concubine didn't dare to speak carelessly. She knew that she couldn't allow Feng Ning Yan to continue arguing. If she delayed any longer, the situation would spiral out of control when Shen Ling Jue arrived.

"What a sharp tongue! You actually dare to roar and act atrociously in front of royal father! Someone, seize Feng Ningyan! "

The Imperial Guards had long since obeyed Shen You Huang's command and surged forward to suppress Feng Ning Yan.

Feng Ningyan's arms were restrained, but with her martial arts, it wasn't impossible for her to resist.

However, she gritted her teeth to suppress the anger in her heart, constantly warning herself: Feng Ning Yan, cannot resist! Can't do it! If you were to make a move, the reputation of being rebellious would be confirmed!

At this moment, she couldn't help but think of her previous life when she was framed by Shen Youhuang and imprisoned.

In this life, she would never say another word of injustice to this person!

Her eyes were red as she stared at Shen You Huang and Flower Rain. The hatred from her past life grew like countless vines.

"I, Feng Ning Yan, am worthy of the heavens and earth, why should I fear the framing of you two beasts! You want me to admit the crimes you want me to commit, dream on! "

When Hua Ruyu heard this, she couldn't help but smile sinisterly. She walked up to the emperor and the empress dowager and said, "Such a heinous crime. If the punishment wasn't lifted, who could easily confess …"

"Someone come!" Punishment! "

The emperor had a headache. How could he care about whether or not the punishment was appropriate for Feng Ning Yan? He only wanted to know if Feng Wei and Ning Nan Jun had any thoughts of rebelling.

The Executing Eunuch brought up a pair of pincers, which the Imperial Guard maliciously wrapped around Feng Ning's slender fingers, and tied her wrist tightly with a rope.

Feng Ningyan did not expect that a dignified imperial court bestowed the title of Young Commander of the Southern Ning Army and a dignified imperial concubine like Yu Wangfei would not even consider it in the slightest. She would not even be tried, and would instead be tortured in the first place.

"Your Majesty! Feng Ning Yan refused to accept this outcome! Even if they wanted to kill him or cut him to pieces, they had to have solid evidence! "Even if I am just a commoner, I still cannot be executed without any proof in court!"

Hua Ruyu walked in front of Feng Ningyan and used the brocade handkerchief to gag her.

"Feng Ningyan, the justice courts will naturally find evidence to convince you, even if you don't admit your wrongs!"

Feng Ning Yan sobbed, but because of the brocade handkerchief in her mouth, she couldn't say anything.

She stared at Hua Ruyu with hatred, wishing that she could kill this wicked woman!

Her Majesty was appalled and quickly turned her face away.

The imperial concubine was well aware that the situation had changed due to Shen You Huang and Hua Ruyu's provocations, so she didn't dare lightly plead on behalf of Feng Ning Yan. She only supported the emperor and advised, "Your majesty, why don't we let the justice courts conduct an interrogation first …"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Youhuang had already given the order to execute him!

In the quiet great hall, the woman suddenly tightened her grip. The creaking sound was extremely hair-raising.

His fingers were linked to his heart. The wooden stick holding onto his finger was ten times more painful than a blade piercing his body!

Feng Ningyan's mouth was stuffed with a brocade handkerchief, but she firmly clenched her teeth, not even daring to make a sound.

She can't plead guilty, because guilty pleas only involve more people...

She could only silently call out Shen Lingjue's name in her heart.

Ling Jue, I'm waiting for you, did you hear …

Hua Ruyu did not expect Feng Ningyan to endure such torture, as she stared blankly at her.

Time passed bit by bit, and the pendant was tightened bit by bit. However, Feng Ning Yan's face was still filled with stubbornness, causing Hua Ruyu to be anxious.

The empress dowager and imperial concubine could no longer bear to see the emperor beg for mercy.

Imperial Concubine said with reddened eyes, "Your majesty, this punishment is too cruel! "Let them stop. We can't investigate this properly here, just hand it over to the justice courts …"

The empress dowager couldn't bear to look at it. "Amitabha, I just want to know if they're engaged in a fake marriage. Why did they have to go so far …?" "Your majesty, tell them to stop …"

Just at this moment, the sound of weapons clashing could be heard from outside the hall. Get lost! "

Before he finished speaking, the hall door was kicked open, Shen Ling Jue was like a gale of wind, his great sword swept out, the Imperial Guard could not resist and immediately scattered in all directions.

Feng Ning Yan suddenly turned her head and saw Shen Ling Jue flying through the air, landing beside her with a flip.

He swept away the surrounding Imperial Guards who were suppressing Feng Ningyan with a single sword strike and kicked the executed eunuch aside. He tightly embraced Feng Ningyan, as if he didn't see the emperor, empress dowager, and the others present.

Then, he carefully loosened his grip and pulled off the brocade handkerchief from Feng Ning Yan's mouth. He looked at her red and swollen fingers and said with extreme sorrow, "Yan'Er, how about it …"

"Don't worry …" Feng Ning Yan forced out a smile. She forcefully swallowed her saliva and moistened her mouth and throat. Her voice was already hoarse. "It hasn't stopped …"

Shen Lingjue's heart felt as if it was ruthlessly twisted by a dagger, the pain rendered him speechless.

He turned his head and saw Hua Ruyu standing in front of Feng Ning Yan in shock. He swung his sword and stabbed her skirt to the ground with the tip of the sword.

Ah!

Hua Ruyu screamed in fear and took a step back. Her dress was torn apart with a 'chi la' sound.

Shen Youhuang walked over to support her. She couldn't help but feel a little fearful when she looked at Shen Lingjue.

The emperor was frightened by the bloodshot eyes of Shen Ling Jue. He retreated a few steps and said with a trembling voice: "King Yu! You secretly brought a weapon and trespassed into the harem, are you really trying to rebel!? "

Shen Ling Jue stood up and looked coldly at the emperor and empress dowager, "Royal father, empress dowager, it is not this son that is intruding the palace. It is because even if wangfei can slaughter her way out of the palace, she will not retaliate, so I must come and save her, otherwise she will die of injustice here!"

Before he entered the palace, he had only been speculating about why Feng Ningyan had entered the palace.

But when he arrived outside the Myriad Blessings Palace, he met Wu Nianen, who had specifically been waiting for him. It was only then that he realized that due to Shen You Huang and Hua Ruyu's instigation, Feng Ning Yan was being wrongly punished within the palace.

How could he restrain himself? He grabbed the sword of the guard and rushed in.

Looking at the cold sweat soaked Feng Ning Yan in his arms, Shen Ling Jue said in a sad voice: "Royal father, if Royal Concubine has any plans to rebel, why must you endure until now?"

The empress dowager looked at Shen Lingjue's resentful eyes and felt a pang of regret. "This matter was due to my impulsiveness. I was only going to ask you all why you guys didn't get off scot-free. How did the situation turn out like this …"

"Why not?" Shen Ling Jue sneered, "We love each other with all our hearts and nights in the same room, why is it that there's still no bridal chamber? You shouldn't ask her, you should ask me."

With these words, the empress dowager and emperor both felt that something was amiss.

"What do you mean?" The Emperor couldn't help but ask.
