Descending Phoenix- To be Emperor - C302
“Hmm, since you’ve made a mask, do you have a detailed plan?” Shen Lingjue asked, still worried.
Feng Ningyan shook his head: “No.”
“No?” Shen Lingjue frowned.
“I’ll deal with it when it’s necessary, I’ll deal with it when it’s necessary. I’m good at dealing with moves, don’t worry.” Feng Ningyan laughed.
Then she took off her mask and carefully put it away, “But I know that some of the answers must be in the palace. The people of the capital were talking about the news of the survival of the His Highness King Yu. When someone brought it up in the imperial court today, Qin Huai Nan immediately reported that Wu Nianen committed suicide and framed you. I feel that these two were Shen Youhuang’s schemes. ”
Shen Lingjue nodded his head: “After the diagnosis and treatment of the plague and the incident where the Hidden Hand was robbed, he should have been able to guess that we have already returned to the capital and contacted Yu Su. So in order to prevent us from going back to court and exposing his lies, he took the initiative and put everything on my head. It’s just that Wu Nianen… This death was too bizarre. ”
“I’ll find out.” Feng Ningyan clenched his teeth, “Wu Nianen is loyal to the Emperor and has often helped us secretly. Even when we were in Ningnan County, he would always pass along the news from the palace to Jing Qi.
Shen Lingjue held her hands in heartache: “Since you want to investigate the case, then you can’t use emotions. This is your weakness, remember it well.”
When Feng Ningyan heard it, he nodded: “I understand.”
After the two of them were done with their discussion, Feng Ningyan immediately ordered Ah Yao to pass a message to his imperial concubine, telling her to find a reason to send Lian Yi out to the palace to gather information.
In the evening, Ah Yao came to report, “Royal Concubine, Miss Lian Yi has already settled down. It’s time for her to gather the materials and return to the palace.”
Feng Ningyan immediately received the palace maid attire that Ah Yao brought over, put on the human skin mask, sat in front of the makeup table and dressed up, then stood up once again. She was the trusted aide of the imperial concubine, Lian Yi.
After Shen Lingjue sent her to the entrance of the Palace, he could no longer walk out. Reluctantly, he tied her cloak tightly around her and reminded her to be careful not to use force in case her wounds did not heal well.
He also brought up the matter of an imperial concubine, telling her not to give the imperial concubine any ideas. After all, she wasn’t an expert in scheming and scheming.
Feng Ningyan knew that he was unwilling to part with her. She hugged him tightly, absorbing the warmth from his embrace.
“Husband, I will be more careful. I will miss you too …”
“Alright, I’ll go to the Guanju Palace to wait for you when you have two days to live.” Shen Lingjue immediately said.
Feng Ningyan “puchi” laughed, “Have you thought about this long ago? Just wait for me to say that? ”
Shen Lingjue lowered his head and kissed her cherry lips, tasting it quickly before laughing, “After all, words like ‘thinking of you’ will make this king feel numb if I say it.”
Feng Ningyan rolled her eyes at him. “But I want to hear it too!”
Shen Lingjue was startled. He did not expect that the usually valiant and valiant girl, who did not waste any time on relationships, would now become as gentle as water because of their short separation.
He lightly brushed her hair behind her ear and softly said, “Two days is too long. My wife is not here, so I can’t sleep by myself. I’m afraid that my love will grow ill, so it’s better to meet each other once a day …”
Feng Ningyan laughed: “That won’t do, seeing me once a day, won’t you miss me? I want to see you once every two days so that you won’t be able to sleep if you think about it! ”
After saying that, she suddenly slipped away from his embrace, leaving behind a sweet smile as she turned around and left.
Her back was still as valiant and valiant as before. Only by his side and in his embrace could there be a feeling of unbreakable tenderness.
She wanted to be with him at all times, not separate, but winter was approaching, and the snow and ice were not removed, so how could the road ahead be smooth?
She sat on the carriage and watched the people hurrying home in the sunset. She slowly calmed down as she packed up the stalls, closed the shops, and went up to the restaurant and song building.
From this moment onwards, she was Lian Yi, the imperial concubine’s personal maid.
Entering the palace door, she brought along the two young eunuch, as well as the things she had collected, and directly returned to the Chen Ming Palace.
The imperial concubine was already anxiously pacing back and forth in the bedchamber. Seeing that it was already ‘Lian Yi’s’ time to return to the palace, why was it not time yet?
Hearing the soft sound from the pearl curtain, Feng Ningyan walked in and smiled as he bowed: “Reporting to the Empress, Lian Yi is back.”
Imperial Concubine turned around to look and saw that her palace maid, Lian Yi, had returned safely. She could not help but frown.
Only after she dismissed everyone did she pull Feng Ningyan’s hand and look left and right.
“Lian Yi, is that you?”
Feng Ningyan could not help but burst out laughing: “Imperial Noble Concubine, aren’t you just a servant? Is it because the lights in the bedchamber are too dim? This servant will help the Empress light up a few more lights. ”
The imperial concubine was shocked. “How do you do things? Didn’t I tell you to go to the Prince Yu’s Mansion quietly and replace the King Yu’s Wife with entering the palace? Why did you come back by yourself? King Yu’s Wife changed his mind or met with some resistance? ”
Seeing that the imperial concubine really treated her as Lian Yi, Feng Ningyan had already started laughing until he was out of breath, “Aiyo, my Imperial Noble Concubine, you’re really too funny … Your concubine is disguised as Lian Yi, is she really that similar? ”
Hearing that, the imperial concubine was startled, her entire face flushed red, but she couldn’t resist slapping the back of Feng Ningyan’s hand, “So it’s you! “No wonder the empress dowager always said that you’re weird and weird. You even want to deceive this elder sister of mine for making such a ruckus!”
Feng Ningyan was completely innocent. “It’s really too good to be the weirdo’s mask, you can’t blame me for that.”
The imperial concubine thought about it for a moment, then smiled: “I really didn’t think that you would be able to fake the truth by changing your appearance to Lian Yi’s. It is true that this human skin mask is good, but your imitation of Lian Yi’s tone of voice is also very vivid, if not how can you hide from me? ”
The imperial concubine was worried that Feng Ningyan disguised himself as a palace maid in a different way from normal people, but who knew that she had such a talent for acting, what was there to be afraid of? In the future, Feng Ningyan could use the name of Lian Yi, the imperial concubine’s trusted aide and palace maid to run amok in the palace without being afraid of Shen Youhuang seeing through him.
The imperial concubine heaved a sigh of relief and held Feng Ningyan’s hand. Feeling that her fingers were cold, she quickly ordered someone to bring her some tea to warm her body.
The two of them sat on the couch, drinking tea and watching the snow fall under the setting sun.
After drinking a few mouthfuls of tea, he felt that it was not as cold as before, so Feng Ningyan asked: “The Empress should have already heard about what happened today, right?”
“Of course I heard about it, including the recent news of the survival of the King Yu outside …” As the imperial concubine spoke, she couldn’t help but sigh, “I didn’t think that you guys would go back to the capital in such a secret, and yet you all have been discovered. Are there Shen Youhuang’s spies in the Prince Yu’s Mansion?”
Feng Ningyan shook his head: “That’s not it, because Yu Su and Shen Youhuang have been fighting tit for tat lately, and we’ve dealt with each other for tat, making Shen Youhuang suspicious. In addition to the fact that Pei Shi couldn’t find the corpse, both of us together proved that he will naturally know that we aren’t dead. After that, Shen Youhuang would clarify in the morning court that he did not lie when he said that King Yu was dead, and that he was using that as a basis for the suspicions of civil and military officials as well as the people of the world. ”
“So that’s how it is …” The imperial concubine was still confused, “But Wu Nianen obviously went back to his hometown to treat his mother. Why did he suddenly die and leave behind such a letter to frame King Yu?”
This question was naturally one that Feng Ningyan was puzzled by as well.
“The Empress is saying that Manager Wu was not in the palace before because his mother was very ill?” Feng Ningyan could not help but ask.
