Chapter 224: It's Tricked
"I didn't expect you to think so much about me, it's a shame, I don't care so much about reputation."
After Feng Yu said this with a sneer, she beckoned to the guard behind her, "Give me the punishment, I want to see what she can say later." ”
Feng Yue'er looked at Feng Yu in shock, she didn't expect Feng Yu to actually punish her, she was still lucky in her heart, but when she saw the expression on Feng Yu's face was extremely cold, coupled with the guards who came over, Feng Yue'er immediately panicked.
"You obviously want to bend into a trick, which violates the royal demeanor and the laws of the Northern Capital, and I can complain to the emperor."
Feng Yu looked at Feng Yue'er expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Then you have to have the life to go out alive to see the emperor." ”
After speaking, Feng Yu said sharply: "Do it!" ”
The guard behind her immediately grabbed Feng Yue'er's arm and dragged her out of the cell and to the torture room.
It just so happened that Xiao Yan rushed over when he heard the news, and when he saw that Feng Yu was going to torture Feng Yue'er, he didn't stop her, but asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?" ”
When he knew about Xu Ruyue's death, Xiao Yan's first reaction was Feng Yu, Feng Yu was really good to Feng Yue'er, and she definitely couldn't accept her death.
So Xiao Yan immediately rushed back to Rui Wang's Mansion, and only after asking did he know that Feng Yu had arrived in prison, so he hurried over.
"It's fine." Feng Yu shook her head calmly, looked ahead and said, "Feng Yue'er must know something, I must ask it." ”
Seeing Feng Yu walking towards the torture room, Xiao Yan didn't say anything, just followed quickly.
"Let go of me, let go of me!"
Feng Yue'er screamed in horror, but the guards still tied her to the torture pillar, and when she saw Feng Yu and Xiao Yan coming in, Feng Yue'er immediately shouted: "You are lynching, you want to be beaten into a trick." ”
Faced with Feng Yue'er's ignorance of life and death, Feng Yu sneered, "Yes, I just want to bend into a move, what can you do?" ”
Feng Yue'er looked at Feng Yu in a daze, knowing that Feng Yu said 'execution', and after the whip fell, Feng Yue'er was painfully brought back to her senses.
"I said, I'll say anything, don't hit me."
Just a whip made Feng Yue'er soften, Feng Yu stood in place and looked at her indifferently, "Say, what is the relationship between you and Li Jie?" What's going on with you? ”
"The person behind me is indeed Master Li, but I just help him collect news about those dignitaries, and I don't know anything else."
Feng Yu frowned, and said sharply: "Do you really don't know, or do you want to keep your cheap life?" ”
Hearing this, Feng Yue'er shook her head again and again, "I really don't know, Master Li never let me ask more." He said that the more I knew, the more dangerous it was, and that I was just in it for the money, and I didn't want to risk my life. ”
After that, Feng Yu and Xiao Yan asked a few more things, but Feng Yue'er claimed that she didn't know, and Xiao Yan couldn't ask anything when she saw it, so she sent someone to guard Feng Yue'er.
"I'll send you back to rest."
Xiao Yan looked at Feng Yu with some concern, although Feng Yu behaved the same as usual, but he knew in his heart that in fact, Feng Yu was very sad.
"Okay, I guess what Feng Yue'er said should be true, Xiao Qishan has always been rigorous in his work, and he probably can't ask anything."
Xiao Yan sent Feng Yu back to Rui Wang's Mansion, and the two separated, not long after Feng Yu returned to the room, the queen sent someone to pass the word, saying that she wanted to see Feng Yu.
Feng Yu immediately went to the dormitory where the emperor and the queen lived, the queen was drinking tea in the house, Feng Yu saluted after entering the house, and asked, "I don't know what happened to the queen mother to see her son?" ”
"Qiluo, too many things have happened on this southern tour, I wanted to let your father be idle for a few days, but now I want to make your father not clean for a day." The queen sighed lightly, and said with a worried face: "In the past few days, the queen mother has seen that your father is always in poor spirits, and the queen mother is very worried. ”
Speaking of this, the queen paused, and then continued: "Your father's health is getting worse and worse, so the queen mother thinks that we will return to Beijing early, so that your father can recuperate in the palace." ”
"What do you think?"
Feng Yu knew the queen's concerns, a lot of things happened during this southern tour, and it seemed that each of them was unrelated, but in fact they were all connected to a line, that is, Xiao Qishan.
If it is really Xiao Qishan who is playing behind his back, with the current emperor's physical state, I am afraid that he will not be able to fight him.
Besides, Feng Yi is now alone in Beijing, if something happens here, he will be chaotic if he wants to come to the capital, and then Feng Yi's situation will be even more dangerous.
"The queen mother is right, and the sons also feel that they should return to Beijing as soon as possible." Feng Yu nodded with a serious expression and said, "But something has happened in Jiangzhou now, and I have to solve the matter in Jiangzhou before I can go back." ”
After thinking about it, Feng Yu said to the queen: "Queen Mother, it's better to do this, Erchen will go to Xiao Yan to discuss it first, ask him to speed up the investigation, and make arrangements for the return trip as soon as possible, and then we will leave for Beijing in three days." ”
After Feng Yu finished speaking, the queen thought for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "You think more thoughtfully than the queen mother, just do what you say." ”
"Yes, Erchen will go to Xiao Yan to discuss."
Fengyu got up to say goodbye to the queen and went to find Xiao Yan, but she was only halfway when she met the person sent by Xiao Yan to deliver the message.
"See the princess, General Xiao asked his subordinates to pass the word to the princess."
Generally, this situation is bad news, Feng Yu took a deep breath and said, "Say, he asked you to tell me something." ”
The guard glanced around, clasped his hands into fists and whispered: "Jiangzhou prefect Li Xie committed suicide by taking poison in prison. ”
Feng Yu stood there in shock, and after a moment, she said to the guards, "I know, you can stand down." ”
"Yes."
Li Xie is actually dead?! Feng Yu sneered, she didn't expect the people behind her to attack so quickly, and they were directly caught off guard.
From this point of view, their current situation is really dangerous, and it seems that they must return to Beijing as soon as possible in order to avoid greater danger.
Feng Yu was about to go to Xiao Yan and was about to tell him about the Empress Du's discussion of returning to Beijing just now, but the little lady beside the emperor suddenly ran towards her in a hurry.
"The minion has seen the princess."
Feng Yu frowned and said unhappily: "Why are you so alarmed?" ”
"Back to the princess, the emperor is gone."
When Feng Yu heard this, she suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly asked, "How could you not see it?" Have you looked everywhere? ”
"I've searched all over it, but I haven't found the emperor."
If the emperor was gone, Feng Yu would not be really nervous, but it was this critical time, which made Feng Yu very worried.
"Immediately call someone to follow me to find it."
"Yes, Princess."
Feng Yu anxiously led people around to find the emperor, but after searching, there was no clue.
"Princess, I heard from the guards that the emperor is missing, but is it true?"
Zhao Zongqi brought someone over, and looked at Feng Yu with an anxious expression, "Why did the emperor suddenly disappear?" Could it be that the emperor has a private visit to Weifu again? ”
"No, my father has been unwell for the past two days, so he won't move around casually." Feng Yu shook her head resolutely.
Seeing Feng Yu's worried look, Zhao Zongqi hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, princess, I also brought someone here, and there is a better chance of finding the emperor as soon as possible." ”
Saying that, Zhao Zongqi said to the guards behind him: "You search carefully separately, you must find the emperor and ensure the emperor's safety." ”
Feng Yu didn't say anything more, and continued to look for the emperor everywhere, Zhao Zongqi followed Feng Yu, Feng Yu looked at him suspiciously, "Why do you want to follow me?" ”
"Princess, we don't know why the emperor is gone, so just in case, I'll stay with the princess and protect the princess's safety."
What Zhao Zongqi said makes some sense, if his father is arrested, then they are all in danger, but it is difficult to say whether this Zhao Zongqi and Xiao Qishan are in the same group.
"No need, the prince is going to go about his own business, there are guards all around here, I will be fine." Feng Yu refused as she walked forward, without looking at Zhao Zongqi beside her.
Zhao Zongqi stopped and looked at Feng Yu with a serious face, "What is more important now than looking for the emperor?" Princess, don't you believe me? ”
Stopped and turned to look at Zhao Zongqi, Feng Yu looked directly into his eyes, "The prince has thought too much, since the prince is worried about me, there is Wang Ye Lao over there." ”
After speaking, Feng Yu continued to search for clues, and when she stopped, she really let Feng Yu find clues.
Feng Yu looked at the traces on the ground, frowned, and followed the clues all the way to the garden of the palace, but the traces were gone to the garden.
"What's going on? Why not? ”
Just as Feng Yu was talking to herself looking for the traces of disappearance, Feng Yu suddenly felt someone approaching behind her, and before she could turn around, she only felt a pain in the back of her neck, and then fainted.
It seemed that something was touching his face, and it was a little itchy and uncomfortable, Feng Yu moved her head uncomfortably, and the touch disappeared immediately.
The pain in the back of her neck was still obvious, Feng Yu slowly opened her eyes, the surrounding environment was very unfamiliar, and the light was not particularly bright.
"Wake up."
A voice came from the side, Feng Yu turned her head to look over, only to see Zhao Zongqi walking towards her with a smile on his face, "Does the princess feel any discomfort?" ”
Seeing Zhao Zongqi, Feng Yu remembered what happened before she fainted, she looked at Zhao Zongqi who walked in front of her, frowned and said, "You knocked me out?" ”
Zhao Zongqi squatted down in front of Feng Yu, raised his hand to pick up Feng Yu's chin, looked at her beautiful appearance, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"The princess is such a wise woman, I knew it from the first time I saw you."
Feng Yu turned her head to avoid Zhao Zongqi's touch, looked at him indifferently and said, "What do you want?" Kill me? ”
"No, no, no."
Zhao Zongqi shook his head again and again, looked at Feng Yu and said with a smile: "You are so beautiful, so smart, more attractive than any woman in this world, how could I be willing to kill you." ”
"Don't worry, although I just started a little harder, but that's also for your good."
"But don't worry, there's no next time."
