"You did the right thing." Feng Ning Yan nodded.
This was because Yue Qing was someone who had been promoted by Feng Wei. If Liao Guangwen suspected that Zhang Nuo was under Yue Qing's orders, it would be equivalent to questioning Feng Wei Si's ability to hire people.
There was no doubt in Feng Wei's words, but it was as if his heart and liver met each other's gaze. If Yue Qing had a problem with that, he would definitely give Feng Wei a huge blow.
Feng Ning Yan didn't want to doubt Yue Qing either, but when she recalled the slander she had heard earlier that day, one of them had left a deep impression in her mind, causing her to waver a little.
The bearer of the rumor said that the consort couldn't conceive, it was Feng Ningyan who poisoned her.
If these words didn't come from Hua Ruyu's mouth, who would believe it? Who would Hua Ruyu tell?
This vulgar beauty's scheme had been used by Shen You Huang and Hua Ruyu when they were trying to find out information about Ye Bailu, and Yue Qing had been fooled.
Since it was useful, of course Hua Ruyu would continue to use it.
Yue Qing had secretly met Hua Ruyu before, and was bewitched by her delicate mask. Only then did he believe that Feng Ning Yan had killed the crown prince and harmed his cousin with all kinds of 'sinister methods'.
However, how did these words come out from Yue Qing's mouth? Intentionally or unintentionally?
Did Zhang Nuo follow orders to spread the rumor, or did he accidentally slip up? None of this was known for the time being.
In this matter, Feng Ningyan and Shen Lingjue were too passive. If they wanted to fight back, they had to take the initiative.
Feng Ning Yan clenched her teeth as she slowly paced around the tent. Her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Don't startle the snake by secretly following that Zhang Nuo. I want to see who gave him the guts!"
As she spoke, her eyebrows shot up, and a strong killing intent flashed across her beautiful face.
"Brother Li, Brother Liao, help me spread the news."
Li Pei and Liao Guangwen hurriedly approached and listened to Feng Ning Yan's instructions.
Feng Ning Yan replied, "In the south of Dragon's Fang, there is a Green Plum Guild. My second mother bought it under the Mu Rong family's name. Others don't know that it belongs to the Feng family."
"Immediately send our brothers from the Crimson Flame Battalion to spy on the Green Plum Guild and spread the false news that the Southern Witch Doctor Ye Bailu is currently treating the mistress of the Green Plum Guild for infertility and will be leaving before daybreak."
When Li Pei heard this, he did not understand.
"Young Marshal, aren't we investigating the rumors in the military?" Why did you bring up another Witch Doctor, Green Plum Guild, and some other infertility disorder? "
"To lure the snake out of its cave."
Feng Ning Yan didn't explain too much and only warned the two: "Remember, don't let Yue Qing have the chance to confirm the source of information. The best archers were sent to directly report the news to Yue Qing. The moment Yue Qing makes a move, report it to me immediately. "
Liao Guangwen and Li Pei knew that this matter definitely had a lot to do with the military rumors, so they quickly went to arrange things.
Feng Ning Yan returned to her tent and took off her cold cloak, gently placing it on the clothes rack.
She sat on the side of the bed, looking at the sleeping Shen Ling Jue, feeling somewhat guilty in her heart.
She knew that tonight would not be peaceful, so she drugged his tea so that he would not be easily awakened.
Now that he was fast asleep, she wanted to crawl into bed and hug his warm body and sleep with him.
But she could not, she was sure that Yue Qing would take action, she had to solve this thorny problem before dawn, in order to give her father and Shen Ling Jue an explanation.
She fondled Shen Lingjue's hair that was scattered around the pillow, not daring to wake him up.
Moments later, the sound of crickets came from outside the tent. It was Li Pei's signal.
Feng Ning Yan hurriedly stood up and turned to leave.
The moment she left the bed, Shen Ling Jue, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his phoenix eyes and grabbed her hand.
"Princess." He suddenly opened his mouth and coldly called out.
Feng Ning Yan never thought that Shen Ling Jue would actually wake up, and was even unable to fall asleep. She was extremely shocked, and was stunned in place for a while.
"Your Highness …" You... "When did you wake up …"
Shen Ling Jue jumped off the bed, standing in front of her, looking down at her, his tall body gave off an invisible pressure.
"When do you want This King to wake up? As long as you say it directly, This King can do as you wish. "
His tone was abnormally cold, without a hint of displeasure. However, when it entered Feng Ningyan's ears, it was filled with anger.
Cold sweat trickled down her palms.
"I …"
At this moment, the crickets outside began to chirp again. She glanced at the entrance to the military tent and became even more flustered.
Shen Ling Jue pulled her into his embrace, his hand on her slender waist, making her stick close to him, not allowing him to take even half a step away.
She had drugged him with sweat medicine, and he had known it the moment he had drunk the tea.
At that moment, his heart suddenly hurt, but he said nothing and drank the cup of sweat medicine.
He had once said that if she personally brought it to him, even if it was poison, it would be extremely pleasant.
However, when she really drugged him, he realized that he was unspeakably sad and sore.
The effects of the medicine only lasted for a short period of time for someone who had a lot of inner strength. Thus, after Feng Ningyan returned, he woke up.
Her footsteps were small, but each step felt as if they were stepping on his heart, heavy to the point where he couldn't breathe.
He could feel her guilt and attachment, so he could not understand what she had to do without him.
"The wangfei gave this prince a medicine to cover his face with, and then slipped out of the military camp in the middle of the night. Shouldn't she give this prince an explanation?"
When he saw how anxious she was to get out of the room, he couldn't help but get even angrier. Unable to control himself, he started to make things difficult for her.
Feng Ning Yan knew that Li Pei was waiting for her outside the tent, Yue Qing must have made his move, the matter cannot be hesitated, how could she have the time to explain it to Shen Ling Jue?
"Your Highness, it is wrong of me to use this medicine, but … I have something important to do right now, so when I get back, I... I'll take the blame, okay? "
"Feng Ning Yan!" Shen Ling Jue's face turned ashen, "You are this duke's wangfei, what is it that this duke cannot know!"
Feng Ning Yan panicked and said with a red face: "Shen Ling Jue, I'm not a child, this is my army camp, what do I need to do for you? I was like this before marriage, do I have to report everything to you after marriage? "
"You!" Shen Ling Jue gripped her wrist tightly, "Is this the reason why you drugged me and made me faint?!"
Time passed second by second. Although Feng Ning Yan really wanted to explain it to Shen Ling Jue, she was more afraid of missing out on the opportunity to capture Yue Qing.
The moment Yue Qing arrived at the Green Plum Guild and discovered that something was amiss, he would immediately leave.
Feng Ning Yan clenched her teeth and said: "Ling Jue, please give me two hours! In two hours, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. "
As she spoke, she gave him a deep look and pushed him away with all her heart. Then, she turned and ran out of the tent.
Shen Ling Jue walked out of the tent and watched as she mounted her horse, leaving quickly with Li Pei. His expression was cold and still.
In the end, she was still that maverick Young Marshal Ning Nan. He was unwilling to do anything and disdained to rely on others.
Even though he had sworn an oath to protect her and allow her to be rich and prosperous for the rest of her life, she had never seen anything like this before …
Shen Ling Jue laughed bitterly to himself, looking at the pitch black night sky, as if he could see her smile.
"Whatever, why should I bother with you …" "You were you in the first place, what I want is you like this in the first place …"
