C120 Retribution on the Spot (1/2)
From under the bed, Feng Qingying saw Feng Qingrou's clothes. She picked up the clothes and helped Feng Qingrou put them on one by one.
When Xiao Roujia ran over, Feng Qingying had her head lowered so she could dress Feng Qingru's clothes again. Looking at the bloodstains on the ground, she stood blankly at the door, and spoke with great difficulty, ”cousin sister-in-law …”
”Princess, I have a presumptuous request.”
Feng Qingying's tone was extremely calm, but her heart was in extreme pain, as if someone was continuously stabbing her heart with a knife. Feng Qingru was so lively and cute, and was only sixteen years old, yet on the day of Feng Qingyun's wedding, she was actually forced to death by the cruelest method.
She had already guessed who was the mastermind behind all of this and had suffered numerous setbacks to her Yang Family in this period of time. In the end, it was her who had implicated Feng Qingru.
”cousin sister-in-law, speak.”
”Don't say a word about what happened today.”
”Alright, I agree to cousin sister-in-law's request.” Seeing Feng Qingqing suffer such misfortune, Xiao Roujia also felt extremely pained in his heart, ”Just who is so vicious to actually be so ruthless to the third miss? cousin sister-in-law, are you alright!”
The moment Xiao Roujia's words fell, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside. Seeing that Feng Qingying was still dressing Feng Qingru, Xiao Roujia volunteered, ”cousin sister-in-law, slowly dress Fourth Miss, I'll go stop them.”
”Thank you, Seventh Princess.”
Xiao Roujia nodded, and closed the door before jogging out.
Feng Qingying increased the speed of his hands. He had to get dressed before they came in, so Xiao Roujia couldn't stop them for too long.
When those people pushed open the door, Feng Qingying had already helped Feng Qingru to get dressed properly as he sat on the ground with Feng Qingrou in his arms.
The leader was the Old Imperial Consort Li. She was the younger sister of Mistress Yang and the aunt of Yang An and the others, in her early years, she could be considered a saint pet. She had given birth to two princes, but they both died young, so she only had a daughter who was married off a long time ago.
Because the Old Imperial Consort Li and the Yang Family were in-laws, the Empress Dowager Zhu and Xiao Chengyan treated the Old Imperial Consort Li very well, and was considered to be a Grand Concubine with a very strong sense of existence in the harem.
Upon seeing the Old Imperial Consort Li, Feng Qingying confirmed his guess even more.
The reason they chose to make their move today was also to embarrass Feng Qingyun, the Empress who had just gotten married.
”Why is the wangfei here?”
Seeing Feng Qingying, Old Imperial Consort Li was slightly surprised, his tone extremely arrogant.
”Why did the grand imperial concubine come here again?”
”This is the imperial harem, why does This Dowager not need to explain to wangfei why I'm here? But how could wangfei barge into the harem so casually? Did the palace not teach wangfei any rules?”
Old Imperial Consort Li knew that Feng Qingying had always been opposing the Great General's Mansion, and now that he had the chance to make things difficult for Feng Qingying, he naturally would not let it go.
”Old Imperial Consort Li, I was the one who brought cousin sister-in-law here. cousin sister-in-law rarely makes a trip to the palace, why can't I take her around?” Xiao Roujia took the initiative to speak up for Feng Qingying.
With regards to the nosy Xiao Roujia, Old Imperial Consort Li was a little dissatisfied, and did not continue to ask this question. Seeing that there were quite a few bloodstains on the ground, both Feng Qingying and Feng Qingru were covered in blood as they scolded with a stern face, ”What is going on? Your Majesty's wedding has seen blood. It's simply unlucky. ”
The situation inside the house was completely different from what Old Imperial Consort Li had expected. Feng Qingru had really taken advantage of her and had actually saved her dignity with her life. She did not know how Feng Qingying had gotten here, but she had obviously not leaked out any news of this matter.
Feng Qingying put down Feng Qingru and directly walked in front of Old Imperial Consort Li, asking indifferently, ”Chun Yi Xuan is not too far from the Grand Concubine's residence. I wonder if Grand Concubine has seen anyone?”
”This one hasn't seen anything. How could the third miss die here for no reason? There must be some unspeakable secret behind this. It would be best if the coroner and mama could investigate the corpse and give the third miss an explanation so that she doesn't die in vain.”
