Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 487

They kept going around in circles, but the sounds of fighting could be heard inside, and even the flying petals were stained with blood.

Murong Yu was very flustered and anxious.

"Break it apart!"

After trying again and again, I finally made it in.

First, I met Zeng Xiao.

"emperor!"

"Where is A-Yue?" Murong Yu asked immediately.

"Pei Shang has taken them to hide first, so we can't get out for the time being."

Just then, a woman's scream came from deep within the plum grove. Murong Yu's eyelids twitched violently, and he quickly rode his horse to chase after her.

When they found Pei Shang, he was lying in a pool of blood, surrounded by corpses. Pei Shang's fate was unknown.

“Ah Shang…” Murong Yu immediately ordered someone to treat Pei Shang.

I didn't see Yunxi Yue.

Upon discovering the cave, he rushed inside, and what he saw caused his pupils to dilate in shock. "A-Yue..."

I don't know what happened, but there were three or four corpses lying on the ground. Two of them were naked from the waist up, foaming at the mouth, and bleeding from their seven orifices.

Gong Shu fainted from fright.

“Brother Yu… Yun Xiyue wants to kill me.” Zeng Rou cried, her face pale as she turned to look at the man who had entered.

When Murong Yu entered, Yun Xiyue had indeed plunged a dagger into Zeng Rou's chest.

The two of them fell down at the same time.

"Rou'er!" Zeng Xiao came over and picked up his younger sister.

Murong Yu's face was extremely gloomy. He picked up Yun Xiyue and left quickly.

Leng Yan and Yun Xiaohan arrived with their men, and together with Pei Shang and Gong Shu, they left.

The formation suddenly dissipated, and the departure was smooth.

Pei Shang was seriously injured and fell into a coma. The other party initially wanted to kill Pei Shang and Gong Shu, with the aim of ruining the marriage alliance between Da Xia and Da Wei.

“Ah Yue…”

Yun Xiyue was also covered in injuries and constantly plagued by nightmares.

Murong Yu felt heartbroken when he applied the medicine to her.

......

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault for being useless." Gong Shu was just frightened and kept crying after waking up.

"What exactly happened?" Leng Yan asked her. "Why did Yun Xiyue kill Zeng Rou?"

Upon hearing this, Gong Shu immediately screamed as if she had been provoked, "No, it's Zeng Rou who refused to help. She wanted to kill Sister Xiyue. She's a bad woman."

"She deserves to die! She deserves to be torn to pieces!"

She was angry and furious.

“My sister wouldn’t stand by and watch someone die. It was clearly Yun Xiyue who wanted to kill her.” Zeng Xiao didn’t believe it.

“If it weren’t for Sister Xiyue, she would have died from the poison long ago. She woke up and watched helplessly as the assassin tortured Sister Xiyue piece by piece. I saw it with my own eyes. She deliberately watched her die without helping.” Gong Shu’s eyes were red from crying. Her clothes were still stained with blood. She wiped away her tears as she cried, and her hair was askew. She looked very disheveled.

I'm rambling incoherently, and I deeply regret my momentary lapse in judgment in dragging Yunxi Yue along.

"It's your sister. I think this whole thing is inextricably linked to your Zeng family!"

Gong Shu wasn't stupid either, and she immediately realized something. "It was she who insisted on dragging us out to play in the first place. Even when Sister Xiyue said she didn't want to go, she still came to find us."

"Miss Gong Liu, don't make false accusations!" Zeng Xiao said angrily, glaring at her with furious eyes.

Behind them, many generals of the Great Xia Dynasty were eyeing them covetously.

Startled, Gong Shu quickly hugged Pei Shang, who was lying motionless on the bed, and sobbed loudly, "Pei Shang, wake up... someone is going to bully me, boohoo..."

"General Zeng, Miss Gong Liu is an important guest of our Great Xia. Please don't frighten her." Leng Yan quickly stepped forward to block her way.

"His Majesty has decreed that this matter must be thoroughly investigated. There are indeed spies in the military camp. His Majesty has been secretly searching for them, and this time it has become quite obvious."

“Miss Gong Shu is right about one thing: this incident is indeed inextricably linked to the Zeng family.”

Zeng Xiao's expression changed slightly. "Leng Yan, do you have any evidence to support your claim?"

“General Zeng, His Majesty knows what’s going on. If you’re not sure, go ask your sister!” Leng Yan didn’t believe Gong Shu would lie, and he also didn’t believe Yun Xiyue would kill Zeng Rou for no reason.

Zeng Rou is the prime suspect on the list of those suspected of being spies.

This time, Murong Yu tacitly allowed them to go out and have fun.

Because Zeng Rou had approached Yun Xiyue and the others repeatedly, they felt there was something wrong with her.

The two decided to play along and test the Zeng family.

Once Yunxi Yue wakes up, she will know what exactly happened in the cave.

"The truth will come out then." Leng Yan gestured for someone to come in and take care of Gong Shu and Pei Shang.
