Prince Rui, don't spoil your adopted daughter too much: she will eventually get married

There's more to her strike ledger than just this.

After waiting for two or three days, Wei Zi finally sent back a message. The message contained only a few words, but from her flamboyant handwriting, it was easy to tell how mad she was when she said this. She wrote: "Can't I even take a rest?"

It's just a day off! After seeing the message, Zhai Yun finally felt relieved after a few days of worry.

What surprised Zhai Yun even more was that she received Wei Zi's heart-wrenching letter just one second, and the next second she appeared in Prince Rui's mansion. In front of her was Rui Han, who was wearing a grass-green dress.

When Zhai Yun saw Wei Zi, her jaw dropped in shock, but when she saw Rui Han, she understood why Wei Zi, who had finally had a day off, appeared here.

Feng Chenyi chose to entertain Wei Zi and Rui Han in the most remote courtyard of the palace. After the dishes were served, he dismissed everyone and only left Da Wu and Qi Nuo guarding outside the house.

Feng Chenyi hasn't seen Mr. Rui for a long time. Although this courtyard in the backyard is remote, the tallest building in the palace is here. Standing on the terrace here, you can see the entire Rui Palace.

Mr. Rui stood there and watched for a long time, until Wei Zi called him, then he came to his senses and walked in.

Mr. Rui was in a bad mood. Wei Zi saw this and invited Zhai Yun and Feng Chenyi to sit down as if they were at home. "Your Master Rui just wanted to come and see you. You guys have been making too much noise in the imperial capital recently."

Mr. Rui asked with a cold face, "How is the investigation into your mother's case going?"

Feng Chenyi looked a little unnatural when Mr. Rui asked him this. He had just established himself in the imperial capital and was short of manpower, so he hadn't done anything yet.

Zhai Yun quickly explained, "Ever since the celebration banquet, the people in the imperial city have been very wary of Brother Yi, and we haven't found any useful information yet."

Although Zhai Yun said this, she knew in her heart that it was not so easy to investigate the matter of Concubine Chen.

"There are many people in the palace now, so hiding some people is not a problem. I plan to transfer some people from Hanshui Pavilion." Feng Chenyi expressed his thoughts.

"You can do whatever you want with the people from Hanshui Pavilion. I just want to know who killed your mother as soon as possible. I can't wait another ten years." Mr. Rui's eyes were cold and his voice was a little dejected.

In order to seek justice for Concubine Chen, he has waited for a long time and endured for a long time.

Wei Zi quickly tried to smooth things over, "The death of Concubine Chen has always been a thorn in Brother Ruihan's heart. He just waited too long. Yi'er, don't mind it."

After Wei Zi finished speaking, she persuaded Rui Han: "Brother Rui, we have been waiting for so long, it doesn't matter if it's day or night."

Feng Chenyi responded calmly, "I will definitely find out as soon as possible. I won't let Master Rui wait too long when I return to the Imperial City. Besides, I also want to know who killed my mother and who is my enemy."

This is also his knot.

"I received a letter from your mother that year. She said she wanted to leave the palace and asked me to pick her up. But on our way here, she left the palace early and was murdered on the way.

I've always blamed myself for not coming sooner." Mr. Rui's face was filled with pain as he recalled the past.

"So, I won't be able to rest in peace until I find the person who killed your mother. I always feel that I also had a share in your mother's death." Mr. Rui said, but he lost his appetite in the face of the table full of delicacies, and tears appeared in his eyes.

Wei Zi looked at Mr. Rui's painful expression and tears flowed down her face. "Rui Han, this is none of your business. You have tried your best."

But even after hearing Wei Zi say this, Rui Han's heart was still tense and she didn't let go of the guilt at all.

Before leaving, Mr. Rui said he would stay at the Hanshui Pavilion branch in the imperial capital until the person who killed Concubine Chen was found. Wei Zi also said she would stay with him and transfer all the people hired to handle the accounting to the imperial capital.

After Mr. Rui and Wei Zi left, Feng Chenyi was still frowning. Knowing that he was going to take up the case with Concubine Chen, Zhai Yun took the initiative to pack the account books and moved them to her own room.

He also instructed Qi Nuo to contact Hanshui Pavilion and secretly transfer dozens of people to the palace, focusing on guarding his own house and the prince's house, and not to let any news about the palace out.

Zhai Yun looked at the account book on the table and was still a little worried, so she stood up to see Feng Chenyi. When Zhai Yun entered the room, Feng Chenyi was leaning on the armchair with his eyes closed.

Di Yun walked gently over to him and sat down. As soon as she sat down, Feng Chenyi's voice slowly rang out: "I was too young back then, and I spent all day reading or writing. The secret struggles in the harem were not obvious to me. I have thought about it many times but I can't figure it out. I don't know who is trying to harm my mother."

Zhai Yun felt a little distressed when she heard Feng Chenyi's tone. Even after her whole life, she still didn't know how Concubine Chen died. It seemed that since Concubine Chen's death, Emperor Xing'an didn't like to hear this name.

So this name never appeared in the harem again.

"Then what happened when your mother took you out of the palace? What did she say?" Zhai Yun asked softly.

Feng Chenyi slowly opened his eyes, his gaze casually fixed on Zhai Yun, and as if recalling something, he turned his head and stared blankly at the rooftop, "I saw her packing her things when I just came back from the academy that day.

She looked very flustered, as if she had encountered a difficult problem. I asked her, but she didn't say anything. She just told me that she wanted to take me away, away from that terrible palace.

But on the day the temple was destroyed, I saw the man who killed my mother. There was a hideous scar across his neck. I have been looking for him all these years, but it's as if he disappeared out of thin air. There is no trace of him at all."

Zhai Yun had never seen Feng Chenyi talk so much. There was some sadness in his words, and his eyes looking at the roof could not tell his emotion.

Zhai Yun comforted him, "It's better to have a clue than nothing. Let's spread the news tomorrow and let everyone in the scattered places pay attention."

After hearing this, Feng Chenyi turned his head and looked at Zhai Yun, his eyes misty: "Now everyone in the court is saying that my mother is a monster and gave birth to a monster like me. They say I am a disaster star and everyone is afraid of me."

Feng Chenyi had never mentioned his troubles to her before. This was the first time that Feng Chenyi told Zhai Yun about his troubles openly.

The reason why those people in the court targeted Feng Chenyi was simply because they were frightened by Feng Chenyi that day. They were afraid of Feng Chenyi, but could not beat Feng Chenyi, so they could only attack Feng Chenyi with words.

Zhai Yun smiled lightly, looking at Feng Chenyi's unusually serious voice, "They won't listen to reason. Since they all believe you are a monster, why don't we do something that only monsters would do."

Feng Chenyi looked at Zhai Yun with some confusion in his eyes, "How should we do it?"

A sinister look flashed in Zhai Yun's eyes, and she leaned over to whisper in Feng Chenyi's ear.

The next night, it was reported that the homes of several ministers who had spoken most harshly of Feng Chenyi were haunted, and some poultry died in their homes. The deaths were horrific, and those ministers were so scared that their legs went weak, and they wrote memorials to impeach Feng Chenyi overnight.
