C339 (1/2)

It was already spring. In the imperial garden, the flowers and plants were lush, and there were many pavilions, craggy mountains and rocks. Everywhere was full of vitality.

It was not time for lunch yet, Lian Ruyue and Feng Yunzheng walked in the middle of the flowers one after another. A light breeze blew, and the fragrance of flowers faintly drifted.

Lian Ruyue raised her head under a yellow tree and looked at the flower with a faint smile on her face.

Standing under the same tree, she had a different frame of mind. In her previous life, she stood there crying helplessly, but now, she was enjoying such beautiful scenery. There was also someone who came with her in her previous life.

He even felt that the road to revenge was not only blood and thorns.

Feng Yunzheng looked at her figure, and slowly, his vision began to blur, then gradually became clear again. In a trance, he seemed to see a lonely and powerless woman wearing a phoenix robe standing there, in the same place, at a loss of what to do.

— —

At that time, Feng Yunzheng had followed the newly ascended new emperor Feng Qianyue out of the imperial study. They talked about the imperial court matters along the way as they walked into the imperial garden.

”Ah …” While the two of them were talking, a shout of alarm came from the imperial garden.

”Esteemed Empress, y-why are you like this? You've already pushed esteemed imperial concubine to the ground. You don't like the esteemed empress, but … but you don't need to secretly kill her.” Then, he heard a palace maid berating him in a sobbing tone.

Feng Qianyue and Feng Yunzheng simultaneously looked in the direction the voice came from — —

The new imperial concubine, Lian Shiya, fell to the ground with a pale face. There was fear and helplessness on her face. A few palace maids surrounded her to help her up, but she held her waist in pain.

As for the noble empress Lian Ruyue, she stood to the side, looking astonished at the person on the ground. ”Little sister, I didn't push you. I even reached out to help you!”

”Esteemed Empress, it was you who pushed esteemed imperial concubine while she wasn't paying attention. Y-you, how could you still argue?” Lian Shiya's personal palace maid said.

”How dare you!” Lian Ru Yue shouted in anger as she raised her hand and slapped the palace maid's face, saying, ”Who are you? How dare you reprimand me over and over again! If I say that I don't push the imperial concubine, I just don't have one! ”

Lian Shiya already knew that Feng Qianyue had seen this scene. Clutching his waist, he tightly furrowed his brows. With tears in his eyes, he said, ”Xue Ru, quick, kneel down and apologize to the Empress, quick.”

”Empress, it was clearly …” Xue Ru was unwilling, as if her master had suffered a great grievance.

”Hurry up and kneel down and admit your wrongs. Big sister is the empress, how could the empress be in the wrong? Kneel down quickly!” As Lian Shiya spoke, she pulled along the palace maid and knelt down before Lian Rue Yue. She said, ”Big Sister, don't, don't be angry …”

Feng Yunzheng's cold gaze fell on Lian Shiya's face. He clearly caught the hint of success that flashed across her face.

He abandoned Feng Yunzheng and quickly walked over to Lian Shiya's side. He personally squatted down and helped her up from the ground as he gently called out with a pained heart, ”Ya'er, quickly get up.”

Lian Shiya seemed to be extremely surprised to see Feng Qianyue, as she hurriedly lowered her head and wiped away her tears. She said, ”Your majesty, you've come. This concubine pays her respects to you.”
