C540 Yearning (1/2)

Indeed! Xiao Rou had truly been taken advantage of by that old slut, Xian Fei. If this plot was successful, Xu Xian Fei would have to teach both the Xiao family and Lian Ru Yue a lesson. He wanted to strangle her immediately!

Feng Qianyue secretly clenched his fists inside his sleeves as he thought about how he should help Xiao Rou escape so that he wouldn't be dragged into it. However, this idiot dug holes after holes for him to jump into, so he couldn't even pull him up.

Now that it was royal father who was handling this matter, he could not interfere any further, and had to be even more careful with his words!

Xiao Zhenhai was quite angry as well. Who would believe Xiao Rou when she spoke sometimes, sometimes even sometimes? This child was getting more and more stupid. He was anxious to achieve something, yet he couldn't think of a good idea.

”So all of these actions were done to deal with me.” Lian Ru Yue sniggered as she looked towards Xiao Shan with a teasing look in her eyes. ”In the end, it was a coincidence that you killed Senior Servant Jin.”

”I didn't kill Grandma Jin and the dagger wasn't mine. Don't wrongly accuse me!” Xiao Shan viciously stared at Lian Ru Yue as he said.

Your majesty, this humble subject has observed the wounds on this Jin mama's body. The murderer is extremely cruel, and every slash has penetrated his body, the blade in his heart is even more fatal. My unfilial son, Xiao Shan, has no enmity with this Jin mama, and he has absolutely no reason to act so viciously.

Xiao Zhenhai thought that the most important thing right now was to defend Xiao Shan. This was happening in the palace, and the death of Senior Servant Jin was strange. It involved the safety of the palace. Since the emperor knew about it, he wouldn't let it go so easily.

Once the murder was confirmed, that Xu Xianyue would be on the line and would not let Xiao Shan off. If it was more serious, Xiao Shan would probably be executed by the Ministry of Justice. He could not lose his eldest son.

Father, this son believes that the words of the Duke of Xiao are reasonable. This son had also seen the viciousness of Senior Servant Jin's wound earlier, especially the knife that was stabbed into her heart, hitting her heart perfectly in one blow and killing her with one blow. This son thinks that only a professional assassin would be able to do such a thing. Feng Qianyue echoed Xiao Zhenhai's words.

Lian Yue coldly looked at these people as a trace of coldness flashed past her heart. Some of them tried their best to defend themselves in front of the emperor for their own benefit and others who cared about their own.

Who would have thought that all these schemes were aimed at her, Lian Yue? Who would have thought that if she wasn't prepared, the person who would have been stabbed to death by the dagger today wouldn't have been Grandma Jin, but her instead?

If she had died, these people would only be secretly rejoicing, and definitely not be like this.

”Hehe,” an ice-cold and bitter expression crept across the corner of her mouth.

Slowly lowering her head, her gaze fell on the red rope on her wrist. This was something that Feng Yunzheng had ”forced” her hand to wear before leaving the capital. This bright red color set off her snow-white wrist.

If he was here today, what would happen? A thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

Even though she could deal with the people in front of her, she really suspected that someone was standing behind her, facing a common enemy together with her.

When she thought of him standing beside her and defending her so many times, she couldn't help but smile. Not only did she have armor, she also had a weakness.

This bright and broken smile seemed to be doubting something, but it also seemed to be looking forward to something, but unexpectedly fell into Feng Qianyue and Feng Ye's eyes at the same time — —
