C319 (2/2)

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.
