"The Emperor has decreed that we must thoroughly investigate the incident of the prison's fire. We must bury Princess Eleven well and escort Xiao Shan's body back to the Xiao family's residence."
"Someone, take Princess Eleven's body down." Feng De Gui said loudly.
Seeing a eunuch carry two corpses over, Feng Degui walked up to the battered Xiao He and said:
"Young duke, please accept my condolences. The princess has already left and is unable to return.
When the princess had eaten your cake, she even said that she would thank the young duke for not leaving. She wanted to thank the young duke, but please, the young duke must forget about her, and she also said that there will be no more phoenixes in the world! "
Xiao He knelt dejectedly on the ground. As he listened to Feng Degui's words, he helplessly watched Feng Lingyue's corpse being carried out, covered in white cloth. He felt as if the entire world had been hollowed out.
Xiao Shan's corpse was also carried out. Xiao Zhenhai kneeled on the ground and cried bitterly.
"Xiao Shan, my eldest son, you actually left just like that!" Scoundrel! "What a sinner!"
Within the Yi Xiu Palace.
Feng Ziyao trembled in fear, while Wenxiu stood at the side, trembling in fear as she said:
"Princess, this servant, this servant, this servant has seen it. Young Master Xiao Shan was indeed burnt to death. According to Commander Jiang of the investigation, first, he was consumed by fire, and second, the smoke was too thick. He … suffocated to death …" Right now, Commander Jiang is investigating this matter with all his might … "
"…" When Feng Tang Yao heard this, his body went soft and he fell onto the ground, his face turned as white as a sheet of paper, "How could this happen, how could this happen? If Feng Lingyue had died, Royal Father would probably just close his eyes and cover it up. But now, Xiao Shan has also died, so this matter will not be forgotten. "
"It's over! "It's over!" When Lian Zhaoyi heard this, the handkerchief in his hand fell to the ground. "It's over!"
"Mufei, mufei, hurry and think of a way, hurry and think of a way …" Feng Yu knelt on the ground, raised his head and grabbed Lian Zhaoyi's hand, imploring bitterly, "I don't want to be spoiled. I also don't want to lose Xiao He, mufei …"
"Pah!" Lian Zhaoyi raised his hand and viciously slapped Feng Ziyao's face, "You're still thinking about Xiao He even at this time!"
"Mufei …" Feng Xie Yao covered her face, looking at Lian Zhaoyi in disbelief. Since she was young, she had been cared and doted upon by many, and she had never received such a beating before. Now, now …
"Don't cry! Get up and think of a way! " Lian Zhaoyi clutched his stomach, which was starting to ache. His face contorted as he walked into the hall.
Feng Tang Yao quickly stood up and followed him in.
The night was getting darker.
Within Meng Hua Palace, Lian Ru Yue knelt before Imperial Concubine Liang and said, "Empress, Yue Er should return home."
Imperial Concubine Liang instructed in front of everyone, "This palace is full of troubles. I've delayed you returning to the residence of the Prime Minister. It's getting late, so don't walk to the True Sun Sect. I'll send a sedan chair over. You sit in it and leave quietly."
"Lady Yue'er, thank you."
Lian Ruyue walked out of the palace and got into a sedan.
The palanquin swayed slightly as it moved along the stone path towards the outside of the palace. She slowly raised her hand, lifted the palanquin curtain, and looked towards the sky …
Outside of the palace, everything was white, and the low whimpering sounds could still be heard from afar.
Lian Ruyue sighed, put down the curtain, and said, "From now on, there is no more Feng Linyue in the world, and everything here has nothing to do with her. Forget it all, just pretend that she never came here."
She closed her eyes.
"Stop the palanquin!"
When they were outside the True Sun Sect, they heard the orders of the guards. They also heard the sound of the sedan bearers saying to the guards:
"This is the Imperial Concubine's sedan chair."
However, the guard didn't seem to mind and said, "The palace has mysteriously lost control of its waters. The emperor has said that everyone who goes by must thoroughly investigate, no matter whose palanquin it is."
Lian Ru Yue was stunned as she felt her heart tremble.
She lifted the curtain and stuck her head out, saying, "The county lord is here. Is that feasible?"
"No way!" That guard clearly didn't give him any face as he said, "County Lord, please don't make things difficult for this little one. This is the order from the higher-ups, please step down from the palanquin and allow this lowly one to search."
"How dare you!" At this moment, a berating voice suddenly sounded. Lian Yue pulled open the curtain and saw Feng Ye walk over, sternly berating the guard. "You dare to block the imperial concubine's sedan chair? Are you suspecting the imperial concubine?" Furthermore, the Lord of the County is a woman. You've asked her to get off the palanquin at such a late hour. If anything goes wrong, who's going to be responsible? "
"This servant doesn't dare!" The guard hurriedly knelt on one knee and said, "It was only His Majesty's orders that everyone wait. They must be inspected before they can leave the palace."
"Since the emperor has instructed you to listen, then isn't it necessary for the emperor's command medallion to be observed as well?" As Feng Ye spoke, he took out a command medallion from his waist and held it up.
When these people saw the medallion, they all kneeled down and said, "Your Majesty, long live and long live." It was as if the emperor had arrived in person.
"This King wants to leave the palace right now. This King has the Emperor's medallion and orders you to release him!"
"Yes, County Lord, please." The guards hurriedly stood to the side and said.
Feng Ye coldly glanced at everyone, then turned to Lian Xiyue and said, "You can go."
"Thank you, eighth prince, for helping." Lian Ruyue said as she put down the curtain of the sedan chair. Feng Ye followed behind, and the sedan chair left the True Sun Sect unhindered.
Inside the palanquin, a person who had been squatting down slowly sat up. Through the lifted palanquin curtain, she saw the majestic and magnificent palace in the darkness.
This was the place where she had lived for more than ten years. She had lived here ever since she was born, with her mother, and with her brother the crown prince as a companion …
And now, with her mother dead and her brother crippled, she was finally leaving. And she left in such a manner …
"Lian Ruoyue, you're right. From now on, there will no longer be any Phoenix Crest in this world. Everything here has nothing to do with me …"
As she spoke, large tears rolled down her face. In the faint glow of the night, the tears seemed so sorrowful.
Lian Ru Yue raised her hand and used the handkerchief to wipe the ice-cold tears on her face little by little. "Don't be afraid. This is just the beginning …"
Feng Lingyue lay in Lian Ruyue's embrace, her mouth tightly biting one of her sleeves while her other hand tightly clutched Lian Ruyue's dress. Her tears fell one by one, but she endured it, lest she cry out loud.
The sedan chair didn't stop until it was almost at the residence of the prime minister. Feng Ye, who was standing beside the sedan chair, asked:
"How do you plan on placing Yue Er down?"
Lian Ruyue looked at Feng Ye, her face cold. "Eighth prince, my agreement with esteemed imperial concubine can only lead the emperor to imprison the princess here. The rest has nothing to do with you. Eighth prince doesn't need to worry."
I'll definitely do what I promised to do. But if she wants to hurt the people around me, I'll return it to her a hundredfold or even a thousand times over. "
