Chapter 283 Testing each other

Yan Yu racked his brains and did not sleep all night. He only closed his eyes for a moment when he finally figured out a cure at dawn.

At dawn, the fog cleared. Ning Fengzhe hid behind the scenes and planned to report the news of Mu Liao's death to the palace.

As expected, upon hearing that his sachet was left in Mu's mansion, Gu Mengzhen quickly made arrangements to clean up all traces before Yin Sitai started his official duties, and thought that Mu Liao was murdered by his enemies.

Upon hearing this, Feng Yihe invited Ning Fengzhe to the South Courtyard again.

Feng Yihe smiled brightly, just like when someone is celebrating a happy occasion.

"Master Ning, I think your anger has subsided after this action?"

As soon as he heard the name, he knew that Gao Nan and Qiu Bi were eavesdropping outside the window again. Ning Fengzhe rolled his eyes at Feng Yihe in his heart.

uninteresting.

Doesn't she have any other tricks besides sowing discord?

Although he was reluctant, Ning Fengzhe still chose to cooperate in order to stay hidden inside.

"Well, it is."

"You asked me here just to ask about this?"

Feng Yihe's red lips are blooming, full of tenderness.

"There is another thing, a plan to hide and separate, have you thought about it, Lord Ning?"

Ning Fengzhe is as white as jade and reflects the dust, and his smile is still noble.

"Thank you, Lord Feng, for your high regard. I just figured it out and came up with a plan. I don't have the ability to do that."

Feng Yihe is beautiful and graceful, which makes me feel a little embarrassed.

"Blame me for being impatient. Lord Ning, please don't be angry."

Thinking of the person outside the window, she continued to alienate him by any means necessary.

"Mu Liao, was he really killed by you?"

Ning Fengzhe maintained his patience.

"Ah."

Feng Yihe has delicate and fragrant cheeks, and is somewhat two-faced.

"He follows the Chief Protector Xiao to plan things, so he can be considered his confidant, right?"

Ning Fengzhe responded calmly.

"Yes."

Feng Yihe picked up a piece of cake, asked the question, and then slowly took a bite.

"King Dijin treated you with a kind of life-saving grace, how could you bear to kill his subjects like this?"

Ning Fengzhe suppressed his impatience and chuckled lightly with a hint of disdain.

"I've said before that the grace of saving my life is nothing to me, like the reflection of a cloud in a pond. It's nothing special. Confucius said in ancient times that one should sacrifice one's life to repay a great favor. How ridiculous! Why should one sacrifice one's life to repay every favor? How many lives do I have? How can this be justified?"

At this point, he became indignant again.

"I followed Dongshan's plan, and Xiao Xiangshuo attacked me with all his might. Fortunately, I found a rock on the mountain, so I escaped. Otherwise, I would have died at his hands! I should have killed him to vent my anger, but since he was dormant, I could only turn around and remove his wings, which was also a way to vent my anger."

Feng Yihe guided the questioning, seemingly casually, but in fact, not a single detail was leaked.

"If King Di Jin learns the truth, how will you escape punishment?"

Ning Fengzhe turned his gaze out the window, looking proudly at the wind.

"I have my own story, and I have deliberately prepared false evidence, so he won't be suspicious."

Feng Yihe smiled with satisfaction.

"That's great. I was thinking that Lord Ning might need my help. It seems that everything is settled. I'm really sorry for meddling in other people's business and for bothering Lord Ning to come back again."

Ning Fengzhe understood the hint and frowned slightly.

"No problem, goodbye."

Feng Yihe stood up to see him off.

"Master Ning, take care."

Upon hearing this, Gao Nan and Qiu Bi went to the side door again and walked straight to the backyard of the main house.

Ning Fengzhe gave him a quick probing glance, then turned around and went back.

Feng Yihe's eyes and eyebrows were gentle, and she acted coquettishly and was quite charming.

"The one who knows me best is my brother. You are back as expected."

"Brother, please don't be angry with me. I used this trick to sow discord between us. It was really a helpless move. It didn't mean that I didn't trust you."

"Royal brother, you know that I grew up in the South Courtyard of Gao Mansion. I was not loved by my father, nor was I spoiled by my mother. I inevitably felt helpless. Therefore, I especially cherish the brother-sister relationship between you and me. I am afraid that my royal brother will sincerely follow King Di Jin, and I am also afraid of losing my brother..."

As she spoke, she blinked her eyes smartly, looking even more charming.

“I’m really scared.”

Ning Fengzhe's eyes showed disgust, which was obvious.

"Don't try that. You know I feel sick, but you still want to make me feel sick. What's your intention?"

Feng Yihe curled her lips, looking unhappy.

"Yes. When I act like a spoiled child, it's disgusting; when Princess Yuexi acts like a spoiled child, it makes you love her. Excuse me, no matter how much love the emperor has for her, she will not believe you. Because she has no true feelings for you!"

"As for the other officials under King Dijin, we still need to use strategies to alienate them; as for Princess Yuexi, there is no need for me to do this, she will naturally stop trusting you."

"I said this not to hurt you, but to tell you the truth and enlighten you. Why would my brother spare no effort for someone like her? I am your biological sister!"

Ning Fengzhe's eyes were lonely and desolate, with endless frost and cold snow.

"I know she won't believe me, but that's fine. I'm not really surrendering anyway."

Sensing a hint of ulterior motive, Feng Yihe raised a hint of contempt at the corner of his mouth.

"Could it be that my brother followed suit and had some other intention?"

"Are you trying to take this opportunity to improve your relationship with Princess Yuexi?"

Ning Fengzhe raised his eyebrows slightly, did not answer, and asked back indifferently.

"is it not OK?"

Feng Yihe has light lips and a thin tongue, and she is frivolous and playful.

"Yes, but it's a bit complicated. In fact, why go through so much trouble to plot against a woman? All you need to do is..."

Ning Fengzhe's eyes were filled with murderous intent and anger.

"Shut up and don't tarnish Xier's reputation!"

Thinking that the topic was not right, he changed the subject.

"You've arranged for them to eavesdrop on me many times, so how can I stay dormant? Didn't we agree to stay dormant and separate ourselves and make other plans?"

Because of Ning Yunxi, Feng Yihe was scolded by his brother. He felt depressed and had no mood to eat snacks.

"I made this plan. There are many sides to the matter. No matter how they understand it, it can make sense. Why do you ask so many questions, don't you understand?"

Ning Fengzhe had something in mind, so he went with the flow and continued asking questions.

"I understand. I just want to ask, if they choose not to believe, how can I stay dormant?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Yihe smiled and picked up the pastry again.

"It's best not to believe it. I think it would be better for my brother to come back and make a plan."

Ning Fengzhe pretended to sigh.

"Alas, you still don't believe me."

Feng Yihe was able to justify himself and handle the situation with ease.

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. I just feel very lonely and don't want us to be separated."

Ning Fengzhe's anger faded away, and he sat there calmly, as peacefully as usual.

"You talk nicely, but you act ruthlessly. What if they get suspicious and kill me? Wouldn't I be beheaded?"

Feng Yihe suddenly understood what he meant, her smile faded, and she pointed it out directly.

"If I say that I have a way to protect you, then I have placed an informant in Prince Dijin's mansion; but if I say that Prince Dijin will not hurt you for the sake of Princess Yuexi, then I have not placed an informant."

"Why are you testing me in secret? Is your anger really gone, brother?"

Ning Fengzhe looked calmly at the sea of ​​clouds, with a hint of uneasiness and fear in his eyes.

"It's true that I value my life, you really worry too much."

Feng Yihe smiled cheerfully and answered with comfort.

"Don't worry, my brother. King Dijin will definitely protect you."

Ning Fengzhe saw through it at a glance and smiled silently.

"Well, thank you for your good advice."

Feng Yihe's eyes were as fierce as torches. She knew that her informant was about to be in danger, so she could only smile back.

"You're welcome, my brother."
