After marrying a sickly and powerful official, Jiaojiao cries every day

Chapter 84: Someone, put Feng Zhuyue in the prison

Helian Xiao suddenly became furious, and asked his guards to invite Feng Zhuyue over. There seemed to be some twists and turns in this, causing the ministers below to look at each other in confusion and become suspicious.

Could it be that this assassination had nothing to do with Feng Qiwu, but was related to Feng Zhuyue?

But Feng Zhuyue has always been gentle to others, as smooth as jade, and never participated in disputes. Now it seems that this is all an illusion?

In just a cup of tea, Feng Zhuyue was invited over.

Perhaps because he was afraid that the rain would get his clothes wet, he walked closer holding an ink plum oil-paper umbrella.

Under the clear light of the rain curtain, his face was calm and composed, his posture was like the bright moon and the breeze. He stood on the high platform, with a warm smile like spring at the corner of his lips.

It seemed that the guards had not revealed anything to him.

Feng Zhuyue bowed and saluted: "I pay my respects to Your Majesty. I wonder why Your Majesty has summoned me here?"

"Of course I have some things I want to ask King Nanyang for advice." Helian Xiao said, and threw the teacup in his hand on the table.

The sharp sound of "dong" made Feng Zhuyue's heart tremble.

"Your Majesty, what do you want to ask me?"

Feng Zhuyue always felt that the gazes from people around him were not right, especially Feng Qiwu's eyes. There was a terrifying smile hidden in his coldness, as if he was watching a good show, which made his heart beat like a drum and he felt uneasy.

Helian Xiao stared at him without blinking: "King Nanyang, do you know that the Western Regions envoys encountered assassins while hunting just now?"

Feng Zhuyue clenched her hands tightly between her sleeves, but her face was calm and clear: "I don't know. I felt unwell during the hunt and returned to the tent to rest early. I didn't leave the tent until Your Majesty sent someone to invite me."

As he spoke, he saw the seriously injured Western envoy lying on a stretcher. The two looked at each other, and the surprise in Feng Zhuyue's eyes did not seem fake.

The Western Region envoy frowned, his eyes showing impatience and irritability. "Your Majesty, what is your intention in inviting a pretty boy to come? Shouldn't you help me find the mastermind behind this?"

After he finished speaking, he stared at Feng Qiwu sinisterly.

The hatred of the people of the Western Regions towards Feng Qiwu was already ingrained in their bones. If Feng Qiwu could be punished for this matter, it would be worth it even if he lost his left ear.

Feng Qiwu smiled back at him, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

Helian Xiao ignored the questioning of the Western Regions envoy. He stared at Feng Zhuyue, his face suddenly darkened, and he shouted sternly: "Bold Feng Zhuyue, do you know your crime?"

The emperor was angry and the pressure came.

Feng Zhuyue was so frightened that she fell to her knees and the oil-paper umbrella in her hand fell to the ground.

Heavy rain suddenly fell all over him, his wet clothes stuck to his back. He felt cold to the bone, his face turned pale, and his heart was beating like thunder.

"I don't know. Your Majesty, please tell me clearly." He raised his head and looked at Helian Xiao with clear eyes.

Helian Xiao looked at the figure kneeling in the rain, a sneer appeared on the corners of his lips. There was anger in his eyes, but it seemed that the anger was not because of the assassination of the envoy, but because of Feng Zhuyue's stupidity.

He was so inefficient in doing things, and Feng Qiwu wasted such a great opportunity.

Now that he has been caught, it is just his bad luck.

Helian Xiao frowned, his face hidden in the wind and rain without a trace of warmth: "You sent assassins to assassinate the envoy, and you did it perfectly, but the net of heaven is vast and nothing can escape it. I still found evidence pointing to you."

"Feng Zhuyue, what else do you have to say?"

When this statement came out, everyone was lost.

Was it really done by Feng Zhuyue?

The envoy from the Western Regions was also stunned. He reluctantly shifted his gaze away from Feng Qiwu and instead looked at Feng Zhuyue, his eyes full of suspicion.

It turned out not to be Feng Qiwu, but this pretty boy.

How can this be?

Feng Zhuyue looked at the emperor's furious expression and listened to his harsh words. His face turned even paler. "Your Majesty, I have never done such a treasonous act, and I have no reason to do it. Your Majesty should know my character. This matter is not good for Beilang, so why should I do it?"

"Why?" Helian Xiao sneered.

"Because you want to create chaos between Beilang and the Western Regions to satisfy your own ambitions."

Although Helian Xiao did not say it explicitly, anyone who was not stupid could understand the meaning clearly.

There was a commotion all of a sudden, and everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Feng Zhuyue.

Someone who is usually gentle and kind actually covets that position?

Without waiting for Feng Zhuyue to argue, Helian Xiao threw all the evidence he had found in front of him, including not only the arrow feather that assassinated the Western Region envoy, but also some evidence that he had raised assassins.

If it weren't for what happened today, he really wouldn't have known that Feng Zhuyue had such ambitions.

Helian Xiao's face was as gloomy as ice, and his murderous intent was exposed: "Feng Zhuyue, you are so bold that you dare to raise tens of thousands of assassins under my nose."

"Such a large number cannot be cultivated overnight, and it takes so much effort. What? Do you want to use these assassins to force me to abdicate?"

The wind and rain were cold, but Helian Xiao's suddenly lowered voice was like a sharp blade in the rainy night, cutting Feng Zhuyue's heart and lungs, making him cold all over and having difficulty breathing.

Hearing this, Wen Ranyan looked up at Feng Qiwu.

I saw him sipping tea leisurely, his eyes in the wind and rain filled with bewitching light. Just by sitting there, he could change the world and make love.

He destroyed Feng Zhuyue's lair without making any noise. He was really powerful.

Feng Zhuyue flatly denied it, "Your Majesty, I didn't do that. Someone must be slandering me..."

"Slander! The evidence is all here. Do you insist on saying that I slandered you?" Helian Xiao sneered continuously, his murderous intent becoming stronger.

Feng Zhuyue fell to the ground, trembling as she picked up the evidence on the ground. Suddenly she felt the blood rushing up in her throat, and the shock in her eyes could not be concealed.

All of his assassins were trained in secret, even his own mother was unaware of it. But how did Helian Xiao suddenly find the place where he raised his assassins?

There are many strange things about this matter...

Feng Zhuyue's heart was churning. He suddenly looked at Feng Qiwu, his face as pale as a ghost.

Feng Qiwu happened to look over here, and in an instant, their eyes met.

Feng Zhuyue's eyes were bloodshot.

Feng Qiwu was calm and composed, with a mischievous look in his eyes that could not be concealed. He gently fiddled with the teacup, like a chess player laying out a plan. He could easily decide the fate of two pieces on the board. Life or death, blessing or disaster, it was all under his control.

He curved his lips and smiled at Feng Zhuyue, but the depths of his eyes were so cold that it made people feel cold.

Feng Zhuyue's pupils shrank, as if she saw the Shura from hell.

He fell to the ground, trembling with fear, his heart beating wildly, and it took him a long time to calm down.

It's a phoenix perching on the wutong tree.

All of this was done by Feng Qiwu.

He originally wanted to pin the assassination of the envoy on Feng Qiwu, but unexpectedly, Feng Qiwu seized the opportunity to sow discord between the monarch and his subject.

Helian Xiao had already made up his mind to kill him, and didn't want to listen to his excuses anymore, so he said sternly: "Come here, throw Feng Zhuyue into the prison, and retry her tomorrow."
