Ferocious Princess - C382 scar of heart
As Fei Yan looked at Shangguan Minghao’s increasingly gloomy face and his predicament, Fei Yan turned and looked into the distance. Although the sky was clear, Fei Yan’s mood was not very good, “Shangguan Minghao, you never would have thought that the black clothed man would be abandoned by the empress dowager, nor did you think that the person would still have one last breath of life left, for the sake of your so-called hegemony, just how many lives do you want to use!” Fei Yan laughed sarcastically. She thought that once these words were said, the scar on her heart would be dissected.
Fei Yan continued to speak: “Later on, it would probably be the Concubine Chen, as the father of the Concubine Chen, he had once had a relationship with the National Lord Wei, so you are not sure if the other party was conspiring against him, so you were using him well, and that was why you allowed them to fight, but you did not expect me to appear in the middle of the battle and helped you out, which was why you were so cold and indifferent towards the death of the Concubine Chen. Otherwise, even in the palace, I would have found out that the both of them had some little tricks up their sleeves, as the wise Emperor, how could you not know, it was just that I had become a pawn at that time! Fei Yan laughed bitterly. It was because she did not recover her memories at that time, that was why she did not care about him.
“Do you need me to continue?” Fei Yan approached Shangguan Minghao who had a completely tense face, and said very calmly. After she said that, she seemed to become somewhat numb.
But there was actually pain in Shangguan Minghao’s eyes, haha, Fei Yan acknowledged that Shangguan Minghao’s Star Sword’s eyebrow, and those crystal eyes, were all captivating, no wonder she was intoxicated by them, but compared to his heart, they were like the difference between heaven and earth.
“Enough, I don’t need you to say anymore. So what if that is the case? At that time, I already have no way out, and someone forced me to do this step by step. And you also know that you did not recover your memories at that time, right?” “Your face is also hidden so well. What are you still conflicted about? I am not here to target you!” Shangguan Minghao seemed to have gotten hold of some straw again as he desperately tried to hold on.
Fei Yan did not want to argue with Shangguan Minghao, he did not want to admit to what happened afterwards, so she did not want to say anything more.
“I’m tired. I want to go out of the palace. Don’t stop me. You should give me some time to think!” After Fei Yan finished speaking, she did not hesitate at all.
Although Fei Yan’s aura still lingered, Shangguan Minghao sat on the chair in a dejected manner. Fei Yan’s intelligence, her wit, were simply too scary. He thought that he had done these things flawlessly, but never thought that Fei Yan had actually seen it.
“Fei Yan, why are you here?” When she saw Fei Yan, the smile on Madame Zhuo’s face, which hadn’t bloomed for a long time, was suddenly even more beautiful than the smile of a hundred flowers blooming together.
However, seeing that Fei Yan’s expression was not very good, Madame Zhuo kept her smile and passionately pulled at Fei Yan’s hand, “What’s wrong? Who bullied you, tell mom! ” Although these words were completely useless against Fei Yan’s identity, Fei Yan’s ice-cold heart suddenly had a gulf. Satisfied, he threw herself into the Madame Zhuo’s embrace. “Mother, I’m fine, I’m just missing you guys.”
The Madame Zhuo didn’t expose Fei Yan’s clumsy lie and affectionately patted Fei Yan’s back. At this moment, the harmonious scene was completely gone.
“Fei Yan…” When Zhuo Lei entered the room, what he saw was a warm image of a mother and daughter hugging each other. It was just that at this moment, Fei Yan’s appearance seemed a little strange.
Fei Yan came out from Madame Zhuo’s embrace and looked at Zhuo Lei. Although he was calm, Zhuo Lei could tell that Fei Yan was a little abnormal with a glance. He turned his head and nodded towards Madame Zhuo, “Mother, Fei Yan and I have some matters to discuss.
Madame Zhuo naturally knew that they had grown up, and that there were many things that could be done for themselves, so she nodded in agreement.
Coming out from the main hall, Zhuo Lei found a quiet place, looked at Fei Yan and asked: “Yaner, what happened?”
How disrespectful for an outsider to see Zhuo Lei’s actions, but it was rare for Fei Yan to run out without any warning, which made him a little worried.
Fei Yan laughed, looked at Zhuo Lei and said: “Nothing, I just came this morning because of what you did. I want to know more about the situation, so I can help me investigate!”
Fei Yan had calmed down a lot, she did not see any clues, and thought that a person with such stable pneumonia would naturally not be so impulsive, she was the only one who calculated other people’s actions, how could they be tricked so many times?
Zhuo Lei recounted what happened that day to Fei Yan once again.
The more Fei Yan heard, the more her eyebrows creased. She looked at Zhuo Lei and asked, “Brother, what do you think about this matter?” There were some things that was different from Zhuo Lei’s deductions because she knew them better, but it was still possible for his to gain some inspiration from it.
“Based on what the emperor said this morning, it doesn’t seem like Shangguan Minghao did it. He obviously wants us to fight amongst ourselves, but what he doesn’t understand is that Shangguan Minghao already knew that there’s a problem with the empress dowager, so why does he keep indulging her?!” This question had puzzled Zhuo Lei the entire time. Although it was said that the emperor was filial to the empress dowager, that incident was the night that Fei Yan first recovered her memories and saved him. It was clear that Shangguan Minghao did not have many estimates of the empress dowager’s life, but their relationship was a little strange.
Fei Yan frowned, she had her own suspicions regarding this question. “Maybe the empress dowager knows something Shangguan Minghao doesn’t know or doesn’t dare to touch, which is why he is so indulgent!”
Hearing Fei Yan’s analysis, Zhuo Lei felt that it was reasonable, but what if they were to continue with their next plan? “Tell me, what do you think we should do next?
Fei Yan thought back to what sheshead said today. If she were to expose it in public, it would be the opposite. Not only would she not be able to find it, he would also be able to retract her fox tail that had stuck out.
After all, this matter is not small, and might not even be the crux of the matter. Also, I know that four years ago, a group of palace maids were secretly released, and I do not know where they have disappeared to now. If you have the energy, you can go and investigate, and it will definitely be related to the matter of Shangguan Minghao losing consciousness back then, and it might be precisely because of that matter, that they were released from the palace. Fei Yan laughed. She had gotten this from chatting with Zi Yan recently, or did she have too many maidservant s serving her back then, so she did not expect Zi Yan to say that it was already not that many, and when there were even more, it was obvious that she had done it before in the palace. But why is it that she did not know anything about my identity back then, it was as if she had never seen me.
Every time Fei Yan asked Zi Yan this question, Zi Yan would say that she had just entered the room. That question was something she had heard from her aunt’s friend outside, and it had already been a while since she had last asked that question. Her aunt had also left a year ago, and that so-called “friend” had already disappeared without a trace.
“Then what about you, Yaner? You have to be careful, although the palace has been peaceful and quiet recently, I think things haven’t been so simple. The empress dowager’s silence seems to be temporary as well. Zhuo Lei said with concern, afraid that Fei Yan would not be able to remember and take the risk.
Fei Yan nodded her head, expressing that she understood, “Big brother, don’t worry, you take care of mother here, I think she really wants to see father, but the situation now does not allow for that, I feel that…” Fei Yan whispered a few words into Zhuo Lei’s ear.
Zhuo Lei understood and nodded his head, “Don’t worry, I understand, actually I had my suspicions about the problem you were talking about, and the last time I went to Wei Mansion, when I saw National Lord Wei, I felt that he was really not crazy, but the words that he said all day seemed to be rumors, but why do I feel like those were directed at Father, and that if Father does not have it, he will be driven to madness sooner or later. That day when I saw him lowering his head and raising his eyebrows, I knew that Father definitely missed us, missed Mother!”
Zhuo Lei said with a sad face as well. The atmosphere had become very strange, and Fei Yan could clearly feel it as well.
She suddenly thought of something, that the National Lord Wei actually wanted to do something, then she would not be so polite, maybe she can use some other method, what exactly was her father hiding that year, Fei Yan decided after thinking about it.
Brother, it’s getting late, Shangguan Minghao is going to make wild guesses again, I have a lot of suspicions! Fei Yan stood up and said a few words to Zhuo Lei before he prepared to walk out.
“Brother, go busy yourself. I’ll go take a look at my Divine Beasts and then leave!” Fei Yan nodded and turned towards her own room.
As Zhuo Lei looked at Fei Yan’s back figure, he had a strange feeling that Fei Yan was hiding something. What exactly was she carrying in her heart, Zhuo Lei did not understand.
“Zhuo Lei, where did Fei Yan go?” When the Madame Zhuo saw that only Zhuo Lei appeared, he asked curiously.
Zhuo Lei raised his head to look at the Madame Zhuo, then walked over and pulled her hand, “Mother, Fei Yan is the current empress, so she will definitely come back for a trip. At night, we will naturally return to the palace to pack up our things, so you don’t need to tie her up, she said that she will come visit you when she has time!” Zhuo Lei comforted her, he knew that she was afraid that Fei Yan would not want her to become her mother. In fact, he couldn’t blame her for that, since Fei Yan had been sent away to train in the martial arts since she was very young, the Zhuo Mansion probably did not even exist, but Fei Yan didn’t complain at all.
Madame Zhuo nodded his head. Although it was a little regretful, but she was also unusually reasonable and reasonable. This was probably the reason why Old General Zhuo was so worried about his wife.
“Oh right, Mother, what happened that year? “Don’t you want to talk about it now?” With regards to Madame Zhuo being so calm and collected for so many years, Zhuo Lei could not help but admire her, the people of Zhuo Family were just different.
The Madame Zhuo was startled, he did not expect Zhuo Lei to ask this question in a moment, but actually, carrying these things on his back was truly tiring, but what did she say? He actually said that the Old General Zhuo was a scourge, and that if they did not eliminate him, the river and mountains were unstable, but for such a reason, Shangguan Minghao still believed him, and even captured him, but she did not know whether it was because of this matter, or because the Old General Zhuo had other plans, but from the day he was captured, he had gone crazy, and after that, the Zhuo Mansion did not have anyone to rely on, and slowly quieted down, and the Emperor had also given up on dealing with the Zhuo Family, probably because he thought that the Old General Zhuo would only have more problems if they compared to him, the Old General Zhuo would not be able to contend with him. Furthermore, it seemed like the Old General Zhuo had long planned for such a development, but they did not know where the right clan came from.
