Although Shen Youhuang had no proof, she was even more unbridled when she saw that Feng Wei was so weak.
"Is it really slander? If Princess Yuanyu stepped forward to say that she did not plot against Yue Qing and that Yue Qing did not die because of her, then this king would definitely resign from his post as Supervisor and apologize to Princess Yufei. "
Once these words were spoken, the thousands of soldiers were completely silent, all of them looking up at Feng Wei, Feng Ning Yan and Shen Ling Jue.
Under the rising sun, their gazes seemed clear and bright, filled with anticipation, hoping that Feng Ningyan would deny this matter.
However, Feng Ning Yan remained silent. The gaze that was filled with hatred and killing intent a moment ago, when she thought about Yue Qing's death and the tragic scene of the Cyan Plum Guild, it became dull and dull.
Shen Ling Jue knew that she was blaming herself, so he calmly and gently embraced her shoulders. With a fierce gaze, he glared at Shen You Huang.
"The Southern Prefecture is investigating this case. In order to avoid causing unnecessary panic amongst the people, it's best not to divulge the news about the Green Plum Guild for the time being."
Feng Ning Yan knew that he was saying this to protect her, and was afraid that she would admit that she had schemed against Yue Qing, causing the soldiers to lose all trust in her.
She looked up at him, her heart racing.
Shen Youhuang smiled mockingly when she saw Shen Lingjue defend Feng Ning Yan in such a manner, "Brother Yu, are you really going to protect her? Have you forgotten what you personally told royal father on the day of your wedding? "
These words of his caused Feng Ningyan's body to stiffen. The night of the wedding rang beside her ears, Shen Lingjue knelt in front of Emperor Shen Chenxuan and swore an oath.
— This son guarantees with his life that the Feng family will not have any disloyal thoughts and thoughts of conspiring against them. If Feng Ningyan ever does anything to harm the interests of the Great Yue State, this son is willing to bear it for her, demean her as a commoner, and suffer the pain of eternal exile …
The oath was still in his ears.
She had never thought that she and Shen Lingjue would still be tricked by Shen Youhuang and pushed to the heart of the conflict — to be unfaithful and rebellious.
Shen Ling Jue's gaze turned cold as he tightened his grip on Feng Ning Yan's shoulder. Lowering his head, he saw that her soul had left her body. He hurriedly called out in a gentle voice, "Yan'Er …"
At this moment, the soldiers felt a chill in their hearts.
Feng Ningyan did not admit it, but she did not deny it either. She even lowered her head, as if she had confessed.
Everyone could not believe that Yue Qing had really died, and that he had died under the hands of Feng Ningyan.
Even Li Yao was staring at Feng Ningyan in astonishment.
Feng Wei's face became paler and paler. He walked forward and grabbed Feng Ning Yan's wrist, pinching her to the bone.
"Yan'Er!" Could what Prince Cheng said be true? It was you who led Yue Qing to the Green Plum Guild? "
Feng Ning Yan raised her head, her eyes were hazy with tears. Seeing her extremely disappointed father, she could no longer remain silent.
"Father …" She wiped away her tears and then looked towards all the soldiers below the stage. Gritting her teeth, she said, "Yue Qing was bewitched by the witch and has already changed sides. But I didn't kill him! The reason why I led him to the Green Plum Guild is to advise him to let us know his lost path! "
When these words came out, all the soldiers' expressions changed. They waited for Feng Ningyan to continue.
Seeing Feng Ningyan in such a hopeless situation, Shen Lingjue actually dared to admit to her fault. Not only did he admire her commitment, he also felt sorry for her helplessness and could not help but hold her tighter.
He turned his head to look at Jing Qi and silently nodded his head. Jing Qi understood and stealthily left the Commander's tent when no one else was looking.
Feng Ningyan glared at Shen Youhuang, who had succeeded in her plot, and said hatefully, "But I didn't think that someone would order a homicidal maniac to create blood in the Green Plum Guild, waiting for me to arrive and then frame me! I, Feng Ning Yan, look down at the heavens and earth. I have no regrets in my heart, if I were to kill Vice General Yue in vain, I will be struck by lightning from the heavens! "
"Young Marshal!" We believe in you! "
A young voice shouted out from the crowd, causing a thunderous response.
"Young Marshal!" We believe in you! "
"Young Marshal!" We believe in you! "
This loud shout was like a thunderous battle drum, causing the hearts of Feng Ningyan, Shen Lingjue, and the others to surge.
Her eyes couldn't help blurring once again, but a warm smile appeared on her pale face …
Shen Youhuang panicked when she saw this.
If he let Feng Ningyan swear a vow like that and easily resolve today's crisis, then he, as the military overseer, would have no place in the Ning Nan army anymore.
He could not let Feng Ning Yan speak any more, otherwise the situation would be reversed.
He narrowed his eyes as he tried to figure out what was going on.
"General Feng and Princess Yu, don't worry. This prince has already ordered some men to investigate the massacre at the Green Plum Guild in place of Qi Cang. The culprit will soon be nowhere to be found." However, during the investigation, the Great General and Princess Yu were requested to temporarily hand over the military power so that the Southern Ning Army wouldn't be in a state of panic and their troops would be scattered and be taken advantage of by the Southern Wilderness. "
Such a grand excuse made it impossible for others to question his selfishness.
However, he wanted to get rid of Feng Wei and Feng Ningyan. His wolfish ambition to monopolize the military power of the Southern Ning Army was as clear as day.
It was only then that Feng Ningyan could see clearly how big Shen You Huang's appetite was.
Over a hundred thousand soldiers of the Southern Ning Army, he could swallow them all, and he could eat them all without even leaving a single bone behind!
When Feng Wei heard this, he was so angry that his entire body trembled. His lips turned purple, another sign of blood rushing to his head.
Shen Ling Jue held onto Feng Wei, tightly holding onto his pulse, using his internal energy to stabilize his Qi.
Seeing her father so angry, Shen Ling Jue was also implicated by her. His heart felt like it had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
Ever since the day she was reborn, she was incomparably clear that if she wanted to protect the Feng family and Ning Nanyan Army, she couldn't marry into the imperial family, and she couldn't fall into a struggle for power.
However, fate had played tricks on her. In the end, she still married Shen Ling Jue, and even had deep feelings for him.
Even though she did not forget the destruction of the Feng Family and her tragic death in her previous life, she believed that her life together with Shen Ling Jue would be able to change everything.
The reality was so cruel.
The wheels of fate had once again returned to their starting point. The Feng family and the Ning Nan army were still eyeing Shen Youhuang and had been forced to commit treason and disloyalty!
It was all because of her stupidity!
She should not have encouraged Shen Ling Jue to ascend the throne, married him, and coveted his love and love from his previous life to his current one.
In the end, everything she wanted to protect was extremely dangerous. If she wasn't careful, she would fall.
Furthermore, if something were to happen to the Feng family, it would cause Shen Lingjue to be "demoted to a commoner, exiled into exile forever." It was certain that Shen Youhuang would be like Shen Di who had been exiled and cut the roots …
No! She could not allow the tragedy in her previous life to happen again!
She lifted her head, the wind blowing through her disheveled hair, and the phoenix flag on her dragon teeth.
That was where her ancestors had used their blood to protect their reputation and built a wall of heads and bones.
The army of the Southern Wilderness was about to start a war. At this time, they couldn't afford to lose a leader. She had to protect her phoenix power and Shen Lingjue, only then would she be able to guarantee the victory of the battle of the dragon's teeth!
The tear stains on her face had already been dried by the wind, but she only revealed a faint smile.
She lifted up her robes, turned around, and knelt down before Feng Wei!
"Father General, our daughter is unfilial, but she has unintentionally committed a great sin, causing the death of Vice General Yue and twenty of our brothers from the Crimson Flame Battalion. Your daughter knows she is guilty, so she asks that you withdraw from your position as Young Marshal of the Southern Ning Army and be reduced to a private soldier. "
"My daughter is unfilial, causing father to be so cold-hearted. I have voluntarily broken off the relationship between father and daughter, no longer causing father to be disappointed by my willfulness."
