Yang An never thought that Yi Shuihan would be so stubborn. Yue Lanyi had almost taken his life, yet he did not betray Yue Lanyi and even protected him like this. Xiao Feimo was clearly someone he hated the most.
How could he not accept such a good opportunity when it was right before his eyes?
"Master Yang, you've used such a heavy punishment, but the prisoner is still unwilling to bet. This proves that there is something else hidden behind the situation, if we continue to beat him up, his life would be gone. As for the rest, let the emperor personally interrogate him, Lord Yang will not be able to do anything."
Xiao Feimo's tone was unquestionable, of course Yang An was unwilling, just as he was preparing to speak, Yang Heng had already taken the initiative to speak, "Yi Shuihan is stubborn, I am afraid it will be detrimental to the Emperor."
"The heavens are unbreakable. How can the emperor not handle cases that you can't?"
Yang An replied unhappily, "Who said we cannot be examined?"
"There's nothing wrong with General Yang here, it's time for General Yang to return to the camp."
Yang An did not belong to the Ministry of Justice to begin with, so it did not make sense for him to stay here and bring the case against him. Since Xiao Feimo had pointed it out right in front of his face, he could only leave unwillingly.
Looking at Yi Shuihan who was on the verge of death, Xiao Feimo instructed, "Lian Gu, go and bring a doctor over to the prison so that Yi Shuihan can have a look. Before the emperor brings in more cases, you must protect his life.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Lian Gu immediately withdrew after hearing the order.
"Master Yang, right now, there is no longer a distinction between Yan Kingdom and people, even traitors of Moon Kingdom are citizens of my Yan Kingdom. They can't not follow the law, Yi Shuihan was beaten to such a state just a day after entering the Ministry of Justice Prison, and those who don't know it, think that there is no law in Yan Kingdom."
Standing behind Xiao Feimo, Shi Yanfei started the fight, it was already against the rules for them to use torture, and since Shi Yanfei had grasped on this point, Yang Heng had nothing to say.
"Lord Shi is right, I was careless."
Yang Heng was not as domineering as the others in the Yang Family, but instead looked very gentle.
"Lord Yang, This King would like to say a few words to Lanyi in private."
Yang Heng did not say anything, and tactfully retreated.
Shi Yanfei, on the other hand, consciously guarded the door to prevent anyone from approaching.
Yue Lanyi had not taken a bath for many days, her entire body was dirty. Holding onto the railing, tears welled up in her eyes, "Elder Brother Xiao, I thought I would never be able to see you again in this life."
There was not a trace of pity in Xiao Feimo's eyes as he asked expressionlessly, "Did you cut Yi Shuihan's neck?"
"I …"
Yue Lanyi panicked a little, she lowered her head, then saw that her hands were stained with blood, she knew that she could not hide it from Xiao Feimo, and admitted, "It was indeed me, I was also afraid that Yi Shuihan would implicate Elder Brother Xiao, so I had no choice but to come up with this plan."
"He's here to save you."
"I only know that you cannot implicate Elder Brother Xiao."
Yue Lanyi raised his eyes, his eyes shining, wanting to get Xiao Feimo's sympathy.
She knew that Xiao Feimo and Yi Shuihan were like water and fire.
This king has looked after you for ten years on Ah Yu's behalf, and has always treated you like my own sister. Now that you have grown up, this king no longer has any relation to you, and from today onwards, this king will no longer be your brother.
Yue Lanyi looked at Xiao Feimo in shock, he did not dare believe what he had heard, "Elder Brother Xiao, are you really ignoring me? I did all this for you. "
"Is the purpose of framing Qing Qing for This King?"
Previously, Xiao Feimo did not explicitly mention it to Yue Lanyi, but now, he simply broke this layer of window paper.
"It was my sister-in-law who could not tolerate me. This time, she was the one who sent me here."
Yue Lanyi sobbed softly.
"This is all your fault. If you didn't have the intention to harm her, why would she treat you like this?"
Yue Lanyi's face was covered in tears, she reached out to wipe her tears, looking extremely pitiful, "Elder Brother Xiao, do you know what she did to me? I didn't hurt her at all. She kept on hurting me. "
"You should restrain yourself when you're not as skilled as others. You don't even understand such a simple logic. Lanyi, you should think carefully about what you should do or not do. Otherwise, no one will be able to save you."
Xiao Feimo's tone was cold, without a single trace of emotion.
"You know very well what she did to me, right?"
"This is what you deserve."
"You have only known her for a few months. We have lived together for ten years. Elder Brother Xiao, you are truly heartless to me."
"This King will not allow anyone to harm her. Lanyi, This King has given you several chances to correct yourself. It's a pity that you don't know how to cherish it. In the future, do your best. If you want to die, This King can grant your wish."
With that, Xiao Feimo turned and left.
"Elder Brother Xiao …"
Yue Lanyi grabbed the railing and shouted.
Only, Xiao Feimo did not turn his head back, nor did he stop his footsteps as he walked away with large strides.
Yue Lanyi blankly stared at Xiao Feimo's back figure. She thought that Xiao Feimo was here to save her, but in the end Xiao Feimo was here to sever all relations with her. She was clearly doing this for him, why did he have to do this to her.
How could there be a woman in this world who treated him better than she did?
"Miss …"
Zhu Ling's mind buzzed, and called out timidly.
"Do you want to see me make a joke of myself?"
Yue Lanyi turned his head and glanced at Zhu Ling.
Zhu Ling was so shocked that he almost knelt down and shook his head, "This servant doesn't dare."
Yue Lanyi said bitterly, "They want me to live and die by myself, but I must live on. I must make Elder Brother Xiao regret what I said today."
After saying that, she bit hard on her lips, a dense amount of hatred appearing in her eyes. This time, not only did she hate Feng Qingying, she also hated Xiao Feimo.
The next day, Feng Qingying took Shi Zhu out of the house to relax. Spring was blooming and the streets of the capital were bustling with activity, filled with the sounds of hawkers hawking their wares.
Feng Qingying did not ride on the horse carriage, and casually strolled along the main street.
"Princess, there are many people on the streets. The weather is good today, why don't we take a walk at the East Lake?"
The East Lake was the biggest lake in the capital, with many willow trees beside it. It was one of the favorite places for scholars in the capital to amuse themselves.
Feng Qingying was strolling aimlessly, he nodded his head, "Shi Zhu, do you know the way?"
"Your servant has been there once before. If you're interested, you can travel by boat. It's the most comfortable weather."
Knowing that Feng Qingying's mood wasn't very good recently, Shi Zhu worked hard to make Feng Qingying happy and enthusiastically introduced him to him.
Feng Qingying patted her head, and laughed: "You want to go on a boat?!"
"Hehe, this servant will accompany wangfei in any case."
"Then go!"
Feng Qingying agreed. The Donghu Lake was not far from their location, they arrived at their destination after an hour or so.
The two of them asked for a boat, Feng Qingying sat at the bow of the boat, a breeze blew past her face, bringing up her hair, the air was mixed with a faint fragrance of flowers, the boatman was shaking the oars while singing a folk song, Feng Qingying listened carefully, and her mood unconsciously became better.
It had to be said that the air in the Yan Kingdom was really good.
Suddenly, she noticed a familiar figure on a boat not too far away. She wasn't too sure about that person's identity. She looked around and confirmed that person's identity.
