After eating some melons, Feng Qingluan returned to Prince Rong's mansion in a happy mood.

Xie Yan knew that Feng Shuyao had deceived him, and he seemed to be quite devastated.

Thinking about how Feng Shuyao had gone through so much trouble to get the position of Princess of Chu, and how she had gradually entered hell mode since getting this position, with a series of surprises waiting for her, Feng Qingluan felt extremely happy.

After returning to Prince Rong's Mansion, Jiang Qu went to her courtyard to invite Feng Qingluan to the study.

In the study, there was a familiar middle-aged woman kneeling.

When the middle-aged woman saw Feng Qingluan, her already red eyes burst into tears again. She knelt down in front of Feng Qingluan and cried bitterly:

"My dear Miss, I am the one who has let you down and the Marquis's Mansion down. I deserve death and I have no face to face you."

Feng Qingluan remembered who she was:

"Are you Li Hui, the wife of Vice General Jiang?"

Li Hui said: "Miss Feng still remembers me."

Xie Jin sat on the chair and looked at Feng Qingluan with deep eyes:

"A few days ago, the secret guards took her portrait to Suizhou and found her in Yuanshan Village. She had given birth to a son. The secret guards brought both of them back to the capital and temporarily placed them in Prince Rong's mansion. If you have any questions, ask her."

That day in Ningxiang Village, they learned from Ge Ming that a traitor named Jiang Xingwang appeared on the Flying Eagle three years ago, and that Li Hui was his wife. Several people speculated that she might know something. After Feng Qingluan came back, she asked a painter to ask her grandmother to draw a portrait of Li Hui based on her memories.

Feng Qingluan said: "You were found in Yuanshan Village. I remember your hometown is Gaoping Village."

Li Hui said: "Miss, you are right. I am from Gaoping Village. Three years ago, before my husband died, he asked me to hide well, so I left Gaoping Village and lived in seclusion somewhere else."

"He asked you to hide it?"

Feng Qingluan asked in surprise, "Did Jiang Xingwang tell you something about the tragedy on the Flying Eagle three years ago?"

There was a flash of fear in Li Hui's eyes, and she shook her head and dared not say anything.

Feng Qingluan said, "You should know that Jiang Xingwang told you to hide, which means that if something happens to him, you will most likely be implicated. You can be found by us, and you can also be found by others. For the sake of you and the child, tell the truth about everything you know."

Li Hui looked flustered, as if she was making some kind of decision in her heart. She looked up at Xie Jin and Feng Qingluan and said bitterly:

"Your Highness Prince Rong, Miss Feng, Xingwang was instructed by someone in the Eagle tragedy. He was forced to accept that person's orders for the sake of me, the child, and the people of Gaoping Village."

Feng Qingluan asked: "Who is that person?"

Li Hui raised her index finger and pointed to the sky.

“Three years ago, one month before Xingwang and the Marquis left the capital for the South Sea, Xingwang suddenly came home and asked me to leave the capital, saying that something big would happen in the capital in a month.

I asked him what it was, and he said that the Marquis had returned from the battlefield with great merit, and the people only knew the Protector of the Country but not His Majesty. His Majesty was afraid of the Marquis, so he sent him to the South China Sea to clear out the pirates and let him fail, so as to suppress the Marquis.

Emperor Xia Ming?

Is it Emperor Xia Ming who wants to kill the original owner’s father?

Feng Qingluan was shocked. Feng Qian helped Emperor Xia Ming capture the city and repel the enemy, but in the end he was framed and killed by him.

Feng Qingluan suppressed the resentment in her heart:

"He told Jiang Xingwang to kill, and Jiang Xingwang did it? He and my father had been comrades-in-arms for many years, and they were brothers who had shared life and death together. Why was he so easily controlled by others, killing everyone on the Flying Eagle and my father?"

Li Hui burst into tears: "He had no choice, he did it for me and my unborn child. When he told me this, I was already more than two months pregnant.

Your Majesty threatened him that if he did not do as he was told, he would kill my and Xingwang's parents and brothers, and even massacre Gaoping Village. Xingwang cared about our lives.

And that person told him that his goal was to make the Marquis lose a big defeat in the fight against the bandits, so that His Majesty would have an excuse to investigate him for dereliction of duty and weaken his power, but he didn't expect..."

Xie Jin said: "I didn't expect that the Marquis of Protecting the Country would be able to wipe out the pirates' lair and win the victory even though someone on his side was secretly obstructing him. This was beyond the emperor's expectations, so he ordered Jiang Xingwang to kill everyone on the Flying Eagle."

Li Hui nodded with deep sorrow.

Feng Qingluan's eyes were slightly hot:

"So many people died because of his fear. He killed my father. I'm going to kill that bastard!"

Feng Qingluan was walking out, and Xie Jin called her:

"To kill him? Can you kill him?"

Feng Qingluan stopped.

Because she was too angry, her whole body was shaking slightly.

This is the original owner's feeling.

Feng Qingluan's voice was choked with sobs:

“The emperor is not a human being. My father expanded the territory for him, killed countless enemies, and stabilized the country for him, but in the end, he was schemed and killed by him.

My mother died of illness after my father passed away. He killed my father and mother, and killed the lives of so many innocent soldiers. I want to kill him with my own hands to avenge my father and mother!"

Xie Jin walked over to her from behind the desk:

"I know you are angry, but I don't really want to kill him. I know you can't accept it right now. But he is the ruler of a country, and if anything happens to him, it will cause unrest in Daxia."

Feng Qingluan knew what he meant.

Emperor Ming of Xia is the emperor. Once something happens to him, those foreign nations that covet the Great Xia Kingdom will definitely take advantage of the chaos to launch attacks, which will lead to war and make the people suffer.

Feng Qingluan understands all these principles.

She took a deep breath and returned to her yard.

Five days later, news came from the Prince of Chu's Palace that Xie Yan and Feng Shuyao were holding a wedding banquet.

"Even in this situation, I still have to protect my reputation in front of outsiders."

Feng Qingluan sneered. Xie Yan really loved Feng Shuyao and wanted to give her respect.

Since he is so affectionate, she will give him another big move!

Not many people were invited to this thank-you banquet.

Feng Zheng is Feng Shuyao's biological father. When Feng Shuyao became the Princess of Chu, he jumped from an ordinary citizen to the father-in-law of the King of Chu. He smiled from ear to ear at the banquet and looked very happy.

As the emperor's uncle, Xie Jin was also invited.

Feng Qingluan attended the banquet with his personal maid Lianxing.

When they were in the Thunder Tower, Shang Yuwan hated her.

This time, when he saw Prince Rong bringing her with him to the wedding banquet, he immediately winked at Yingchun.

Yingchun understood and called a little maid over.

"Go and call the maid standing behind Prince Rong to the outer courtyard."

The little maid looked in the direction of Feng Qingluan where she was pointing, and raised her foot to leave.

Yingchun placed a cup of tea in her hand and gave her a silver ingot:

"You know what to do, right?"

The little maid looked at the heavy silver and said, "I know."

She was holding a cup of tea and deliberately dropped the tea onto Feng Qingluan as she passed by her.

"Oh, I'm sorry, young lady. I didn't mean it."

Feng Qingluan's lower back was hit and her clothes were wet.

Looking back, it was a little maid, waving her hand and saying:

"fine."

Di Manli noticed that something was wrong here and came over to ask:

"what happened?"

The little maid said tremblingly:

"My dear concubine, I accidentally spilled the tea on the girl and stained her clothes."

Di Manli said, "Why don't you take the girl downstairs and change her into clean clothes?"

The little maid hurriedly said, "Miss, please come this way."

Feng Qingluan said something to Xie Jin, then turned and left the main hall.

The maid took her to the yard outside.

Shang Yuwan came out from behind the tree, and when the little maid saw that she had brought the person here, she ran away.

Feng Qingluan looked at Shang Yuwan and said in surprise:

"So it was you who led me out. I remember that I never offended the princess. What do you want to do with me?"
