The guard's expression changed, and he frowned instantly, looking at Xiao Jinzhi defensively.

However, when he saw Feng Sixi coming out from behind Xiao Jin, his whole body froze in place.

"Third Princess..."

Why is the third princess here...

"Lu Ye, you have stayed with me for three years. I thought you still have some affection for me, but I didn't expect..." Feng Sixi smiled bitterly, "That's right, three years is nothing. , your master is the eldest brother from beginning to end."

It's just that I was a little stupid. I was blinded by Lu Ye's dedicated efforts in the past three years, and I even ignored who the other party was taking orders from.

No, perhaps it should be said that she was too stupid to truly believe in the First Emperor Brother.

Lu Ye panicked and spoke hurriedly: "Princess, please listen to my subordinate's explanation. Things are not what you think. What I did was just..."

"Just what?" Feng Sixi took over Lu Ye's words, and the bitter smile in his eyes faded, replaced by a cold look, "Is it possible that you still want to tell me that you killed him, in fact everything All for this princess?"

Lu Ye choked for a moment, and when he met Feng Sixi's gaze, he knew he couldn't quibble.

After a moment of silence, he knelt down facing Feng Sixi.

"Please forgive me, Princess. I am only following orders."

"This princess would like to hear what orders you gave me, and what exactly the eldest brother asked you to do!" Feng Sixi's tone was filled with excitement.

But Lu Ye did not speak immediately, but turned his gaze to Xiao Jinzhi, who was standing aside, and the guards behind him.

After all, it was the matter of Beimo Kingdom, and it was really hard to say something in front of Emperor Tianyi.

"It seems like I'm too much of a hindrance here." Xiao Jinzhi laughed and said to Feng Sixi, "Why don't I leave first."

"No need." Feng Sixi shook his head, "Now that Emperor Tianyi knows all these things about Beimo, there is nothing to avoid. What's more, for being able to see this scene tonight, I would like to thank Emperor Tianyi."

During the day, in the imperial study room, Xiao Jinzhi not only promised to hand over the person to herself, but also asked herself if there was anyone around her that Feng Liyun had sent to her or placed there. And tell yourself that the other party may not be trustworthy.

In the imperial study room at that time, she actually didn't believe Xiao Jinzhi's words that much. After all, in comparison, she was still more willing to believe the eldest emperor brother and Lu Ye.

But seeing Xiao Jinzhi's certainty, she could not help but have doubts in her heart, so she agreed to give it a try. What I didn't expect was...

Feng Sixi took a deep breath and looked at Lu Ye with disappointment.

"Did the eldest brother never trust this princess at all?"

The final result of killing witnesses is that he personally came forward to expose everything, and the purpose of doing so... was to make himself enmity with Feng Yanmo, completely cut off his escape, and he could only stand behind the eldest brother. Besides, she couldn't think of any other reason.

Lu Ye looked at Feng Sixi. He understood that in this situation, no matter what excuse he made, the other party would never believe it again.

"Princess, the eldest prince has no ill intentions towards you, but now that we have reached a critical period, he needs to ensure that you sincerely choose to support him and will never regret it."

Before leaving Beimo Imperial City, the eldest prince told him that in addition to protecting the safety of the third princess and monitoring the second prince, the most important thing during this trip was to find an opportunity for the third princess to fully support the eldest prince. Come to the bright side.

Although above the court, if we really talk about the power in her hands, the third princess is naturally unable to compare with the eldest prince and the second prince. But in recent years, in order for the third princess to win the trust of the second prince, the eldest prince and the third princess deliberately had many disputes in public. This resulted in some officials who supported the third princess not joining His Highness's command.

Even if the support of the third princess is not that important, the courtiers who only look up to her are a force that His Highness cannot afford to lose.

Therefore, it is time for those people to understand who the third princess really supports.

Listening to Lu Ye's words, Feng Sixi could naturally understand the unspoken suspicions hidden in the dark, and the source of these suspicions was the eldest brother who he supported seriously and even risked his own life to help with the layout.

She has been in court for many years, and she also understands that this kind of calculation and distrust is common sense, but when she actually faces it, she still can't help but feel a dull pain and disappointment in her heart.

"Lu Ye, you have been with this princess for three years. Have you ever noticed any signs of her shrinking back or changing her mind?"

"Princess, of course my subordinates believe you, but the eldest prince..." Lu Ye hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Although the eldest prince did this, although he forced the princess, to a certain extent, it also showed that The eldest son values ​​you very much, princess."

"Ha." Feng Sixi sneered, "I value you, I do value you. After all, apart from this princess, there are probably not many people who are willing to help him frame the prince."

"Princess..." Lu Ye couldn't help but glance at Feng Sixi nervously.

Although some things cannot be hidden, what the princess said was too straightforward. After all, this is still the territory of Tianyi Imperial City.

"Get up." Feng Sixi suddenly said.

Lu Ye was stunned for a moment. What did the princess mean by this? Did she forgive him?

Feng Sixi's eyes focused on Lu Ye again, "After all, you are the person sent here by the eldest emperor brother. This princess will not do anything to you. As for the order given by the eldest emperor brother, although I am disappointed, the matter is over. At this point, there is no way out.”

In fact, why bother so much? The moment she helped Feng Liyun set up a trap and put Feng Yanmo into the bag, she had no way of turning back.

"Thank you princess." Lu Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

After standing up, he glanced at the body on the ground again, "Princess, he..."

"This is the death row prisoner I ordered in the sky prison. It was supposed to be executed tomorrow. As for the witness..." Xiao Jinzhi looked at Feng Sixi, "It depends on whether the third princess still needs it."

Feng Sixi looked at the corpse on the ground and finally shook his head, "No, please help Emperor Tianyi kill the person for me."

Lu Ye glanced at Feng Sixi again in surprise, and met her gaze.

"Since the eldest brother wants this princess to come forward and correct him personally, I will just do it. As for the other things tonight..."

Lu Ye immediately understood, "Princess, don't worry, everything planned tonight went smoothly. Except for the witness who was killed and the guard who escorted the witness, I have not seen anyone else, and the princess has not had any doubts about me."

"Okay." Feng Sixi said lukewarmly, "Lu Ye, no matter who you once obeyed, but now you are with me, I will never allow such a thing to happen again, otherwise... "

Lu Ye's body trembled, and he immediately lowered his head and cupped his hands and said, "I understand that this will never happen again."

Lu Ye was sent away. In the alley, Feng Sixi looked at Xiao Jinzhi, "Emperor Tianyi hasn't explained yet how you knew there was something wrong with Lu Ye."

Xiao Jinzhi said with a smile, "It's not me, it's Yan Yan."
