As he finished speaking, his face broke into a smile that was like honey, and he felt as if he was floating in the air.

"…" Lian Ruyue bit her lower lip and sat up.

When Feng Yunzheng heard the commotion behind him, he was startled. He turned around and looked at her. His voice was a bit tense as he said, "Are you angry? Did I say the wrong thing?"

Lian Xiyue shook her head, "No."

"Then what's wrong …" Feng Yunzheng also sat up and faced her.

She raised her eyes. In the darkness, her eyes were still glowing like obsidian, seemingly containing some moisture.

"What does Yue Er want to ask?" The two of them were surrounded by darkness, and the people who had once suffered greatly were looking at each other face to face. They had no relationship with each other, and their hearts were full of mixed feelings.

"I saw uncle and aunt, one room and one chair, one mountain and one water, plain rice and coarse tea, yet they looked very happy. I've never tasted happiness. Before, I thought that someone gave me the best happiness, but in the end, I found out that it was just an abyss, so I suddenly felt a little regretful. " After saying that, a bitter smile appeared on her face.

"Yue Er …"

Lian Ruyue finally shook her head, then lay back down, closed her eyes and said, "It's fine now, go to sleep. Tomorrow, I will come first, but I still don't know if it's my own people or the enemy."

Feng Yunzheng stared at her for a long time, until she finally fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning.

She lifted her hands. It still hurt, but it wasn't as stiff as yesterday. It had to be said that the medicine Uncle used was very good.

She pushed open the door — —

"Eldest Miss, you're awake. This subordinate is guilty for not being able to protect Eldest Miss." She took a step forward with a cold brow and knelt before him. She was slightly stunned; the night breeze had also arrived, and was currently standing together with Feng Yunzheng.

So it turned out that the first thing they did was to go with their own people. They were not enemies.

"It all happened so suddenly, you've already done your best. How is the situation outside?" Lian Ru Yue asked as she returned to her calm and composed appearance of a young miss from the Lian Family.

"Sixth Prince, Eighth Prince and Lian Fu, as well as your father, are looking for us to find the culprit. "Ye Feng and Leng Mei first found the crown of hair that I left by the river, then met Li Nan, so they directly came to find me." Feng Yunzheng said.

"Your Highness, Eldest Miss, we have already found you, so the others will soon find you too. I think we should leave this place immediately and meet up with Young Master Gu." The wind said.

"Then quickly bid farewell to the uncle and aunt." Lian Ruyue said.

When they said their goodbyes, the aunt held Lian Yue's hand reluctantly and walked to the side, whispering, "I've lived here for many years. Besides Nan'er, I haven't seen young people like you for a long time. I don't even know what the world outside is like now."

"Aunty, to be honest, that's the current Ninth Prince. I'm the young miss of the Prime Minister's Estate. If aunty and uncle are at sunrise, you can come find us at any time." Lian Ru Yue didn't hide anything from her benefactor.

"I already knew that you all were no ordinary people. Merely, since you all did not say anything, we did not ask about it." As the aunt spoke, she took out a silver ring from her bosom and placed it in Lian Xiyue's hands. "This is for you as a souvenir."

She did not delay any further. Instead, she took off her hairpin and said, "Aunt, I will leave this with you as a souvenir."

After the aunt received it, she went close to Lian Meng Yue's ear and smiled. "Your husband was very good to you. When he was unconscious, he called her 'Yue Er' for an entire night."

When Lian Ruyue heard this, her heart slightly trembled as she said, "He was injured along with me. It's hard to avoid …" "Worried."

"Hehehe …" The aunt laughed, "Anyway, you just need to know about this. As for the reason, think about it yourself."

After bidding farewell to the uncle and aunt, Feng Yunzheng and the rest prepared to leave the valley.

Could it be that he would go back so easily? Feng Qianyue must be waiting for the news of her death.

Lian Ruyue's gaze fell into contemplation as she took two steps forward. Suddenly, she felt her vision darken as her body went limp and she fell to the ground — —

"Yue Er …" Feng Yunzheng was shocked. He quickly rushed over and hugged her with one hand. His heart trembled as he looked at the person in his embrace. "Littlemoon, Littlemoon, what happened …"

"Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss …" Leng Mei rushed forward and shouted.

"Miss Lian, old man, quickly come take a look. What happened to Miss Lian?"

What happened? Wasn't it fine just now?

In the study room of the Duke of Yue's estate.

Feng Qianyue hadn't slept for an entire night as he sat there like a stone statue. He was waiting for news, for news of their lives or their deaths.

"Your Highness!" When it was late in the morning, Ying Kong finally broke into the house with a serious expression on his face.

"How is it?" He stood up, lifted his eyelids, and asked indifferently. The coldness in his eyes made people's hearts turn cold.

Ying Kong lowered his head and said, "The young miss of the Lian Family …" "She's dead. So she was shot by an arrow."

"..." "Are you sure?" Feng Qianyue only felt his heart being lifted into the air, and it was thumping loudly.

"Last night, I followed behind the night wind to investigate the whereabouts of the Ninth Prince and the Eldest Miss. It turns out that they had met with trouble in a valley, and then I saw them carrying Eldest Miss out with me. The maidservant was crying all the time, and I took a closer look, that person is without a doubt the Eldest Miss." Ying Kong said.

"Then what about Feng Yunzheng?" Feng Qianyue asked in a tight voice.

"I didn't see any trace of Ninth Prince. I only saw the body of Eldest Miss. According to what I heard, they haven't found Ninth Prince yet." Ying Kong said.

Corpses? The body of the young lady?

When Feng Qianyue heard these two ice-cold words, it was as if his heart had been hollowed out. His body was limp as he sat on the chair. He had been looking forward to, and hated, for a long time.

And now, he finally succeeded?

Slowly, a trace of a smile appeared on his originally emotionless face. After that, his smile became bigger and bigger, deeper and deeper. Finally, he laughed out loud.

"Haha, hahaha, Lian Yue, hahaha, hahaha …"

"Your Highness …" Ying Kong looked at Feng Qianyue with a slightly worried expression.

Feng Qianyue suddenly stood up and said, "Let's go to the Prime Minister's Estate to wait. This king wants to take a look at her and send her off on her final journey before her coffin is decided."

With that, he walked out of the study with a smile on his face, but his eyes were already red. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh.

The arrow had been poisoned and would die if he did not get the antidote within the next twenty-four hours. He wanted to put Feng Yunzheng and Lian Ruyue, the two people who were obstructing him, to death and have them die once and for all.
