"With news like that, the empress should personally send someone to investigate the southern part of the city. You've really surprised An Guo more and more."
"Your majesty, the empress dowager just rested for a moment. She heard that something had happened in the Ling-Hua Palace, so she told An Guo to come take a look."
"Men, show the princess of An Guo." The Emperor ordered.
"Thank you, your majesty." Princess An Guo sat below the emperor.
There were only two people sitting at the scene. One was the emperor, and the other was the princess of An Guo.
Princess, the matter of Yun Zheng is not the news that Princess thinks he is. Liang Lishu has already traveled all the way to the capital, and declared that there was injustice everywhere in the capital. The Empress said to the Duke of An.
"Oh? "Is that so?" Princess An looked at Emperor Zhou Cheng and said, "Your Majesty, An Guo would also like to see how Yun Zheng would ruin Your Majesty's prestige."
"Empress, if that's the case, why don't you tell me about it?" The Emperor said.
"Yes, chenqie obeys the decree. Servants!" The empress coldly looked at Feng Yunzheng, then loudly said, "Bring Liang Xifan's daughter, Liang Lishu, in."
This was Liang Liushu, the daughter of Liang Xifan, the one known as the number one beauty in the south city. When the south city was managing the construction of the canal, Liang Xifan had originally planned to give his daughter to Ninth Prince Feng Yunzheng, but Feng Yunzheng hadn't even taken a glance at him.
Lian Ruyue's sharp eyes fell on the daughter of the Regional Commander.
However, her expression was a little strange, her face was so white that it was almost transparent, her eyes were lifeless, and her expression was sluggish. Even when she saw the Emperor Queen, she did not know how to kneel down and pay her respects, and her mouth seemed to be muttering to herself all the time. However, it was difficult to hear what she was saying, as she was clearly a crazy person.
"Liang Lishu, take a look. Do you know anyone here?" the queen asked.
"Hehe …" "So beautiful, so beautiful …" However, it was as if this Liang Li Shu didn't hear what the Empress had said. She saw the fluttering jadeite butterfly atop Princess An Guo's head step forward and pounce on her like a child begging for candy.
"How dare you! How dare you be disrespectful to the princess!" The two guards immediately went forward and blocked Liang Lishu.
Seeing this, Liang Li Shu's face showed a hint of confusion. Then, she suddenly threw herself into the arms of the nanny who was accompanying her, and started crying like a child.
The empress frowned slightly and gave Xue Li a meaningful glance. Xue Li stepped forward and took off a hairpin from her head before speaking softly, "This is for you. Take it as a good answer to Empress's question."
Seeing the hairpin, Liang Lishu held it in her hand and looked at it. Suddenly, she threw it on the ground with a 'pa' sound and said in disgust, "So ugly, so ugly, don't! "No!"
He really was crazy!
Feng Yunzheng indifferently looked at her. His usually gentle eyes were faintly pulsating with killing intent …
Give him the charge of abandonment? Hehe.
"Give it to her." Princess An Guo took off the steps on her head and handed them to her palace maid, Huo Xiang. Liang Lishu picked up the steps and smiled. She stood there obediently, shaking them with her hands.
The empress put away the loathing in her eyes and asked again, "Look again, do you know anything here?"
Liang Li Shu held onto Bu Fang as she shook her head. She blankly looked over, but when she saw Feng Yunzheng, her expression suddenly changed and she ran over. With a face full of joy, she said:
"Ninth Prince, you've finally come. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Have you come to pick me up to the capital?"
When the crowd saw this, they all sucked in a breath of cold air. Was this woman really involved with the ninth prince? Was it really because the ninth prince had gone crazy? Otherwise, why would she recognize him with a single glance and say such words?
Feng Yunzheng, on the other hand, had a calm expression. His pair of indifferent eyes looked at the person in front of him. He wanted to see what else she had to say. His unmoving appearance caused the empress to be secretly shocked —
How come he wasn't panicking at all?
Seeing that he did not say anything, Liang Lishu suddenly lowered her head and cried sorrowfully. She sobbed like a child:
"Your Highness, I lost our child. Y-you are angry, did you ignore Shu'er? My child, my child is gone, they have all turned into blood. There's so much blood! He's so pitiful. Your Highness, please save our child."
Lian Ruyue's gaze quickly moved over Liang Lishu's body. She tried to find some flaws to prove that she was pretending to be crazy, but it was clear that this person was truly crazy.
If the Ninth Prince used his reputation as a prince to ruin the innocence of the local magistrate's daughter, even if he got pregnant and spread the news that this woman was crazy, it would be a huge blow to his reputation and prestige. The most important thing was that the Emperor would no longer trust his son.
When the Crown Prince was crippled, there was only one thing that mattered: obscene women.
How did this crazy woman go crazy? And how did he find the capital? How could he be controlled by the empress? This was definitely not what Governor Liang had intended. He, a local official, definitely did not have the guts to do so!
As for the Empress, she lived in the harem. If someone had not deliberately told her, she would not have known about the crazy behavior of the daughter of a magistrate.
So, someone must have planned this series of events behind the scenes. Who was it?
Lian Ruyue's icy-cold gaze descended upon Feng Qianyue.
It was him! It must be him! Ninth Prince had already been back from South City for more than half a year, and only he had the ability and patience to flick the calluses on the smallest things. After years of studying and waiting, he would then find a way to grasp the fatal weakness of a person.
Furthermore, he couldn't escape from the conspiracy of Xiao Zhenhai and his son!
First, it was the art of the voodoo Gu, and then it was to destroy one's innocence. If he was convicted of these two crimes, the ninth prince would never be able to rise again!
In his previous life, Feng Qianyue and Xiao Zhenhai had also plotted to oppress him. At that time, he would be alone and without help. In the end, he would be imprisoned and die a miserable death. And now, no, because of her, he had protected her in every way he could, and now it was her turn!
Her gaze silently fell on Feng Yunzheng's face and revealed a hint of a smile. That smile was as warm as spring, and it was coincidentally seen by Feng Yunzheng —
He gave her a slight nod, a smile that only the two of them understood.
