Shen Jingyi was so angry that he laughed.
lecher?
They are clearly a serious couple, but why does it sound so strange in her mouth?
Shen Jingyi looked at Ning Wan who was rubbing her wrist in front of him.
Did she think that if the voice was a little softer and a little blurrier, she wouldn't be able to hear her scolding?
How naive.
"If Princess really takes the Phoenix Hairpin, please remember to hide it well."
Shen Jingyi's words seemed to be a reminder, but they were full of threats.
Ning Wan raised her head slightly, curled her lips, and blurted out sarcastic words: "Don't try to deceive me. I said the things are not here, and they are not here."
Ning Wan swallowed the words "Of course" and thought to herself: Fortunately, I reacted quickly, otherwise I would have been exposed.
Shen Jingyi looked at Ning Wan who was pretending to be persistent, and rarely did he try to expose her. After all, the play had been going on for too long, and the fish would not take the bait.
Shen Jingyi waved his sleeves, looking as if he was irritated by Ning Wan. Without saying anything, he walked out of the hall.
And Ning Wan naturally followed.
You can't blame her for being spineless. If you want to blame someone, blame Shen Yi's knife for being too sharp.
Shen Yi: Well, the sun is shining, and it’s another day to take the blame for the master!
Then walked through the nine-curve corridor.
Seeing that fewer and fewer people were following behind, Ning Wan began to feel a little panicked.
Suddenly, Ning Wan bumped into Shen Jingyi's back without warning.
Ning Wan felt a lump in her nose.
Then he looked around and saw that it was desolate and overgrown with weeds.
Damn, does he want to bury himself?
Wasn't it just a few words that she said to him, was it necessary to take her life?
This is the princess's residence. If a fight really breaks out, few people will know that they will die here.
Thinking of this, Ning Wan quickly took a few steps back, fearing that she would be bumped into by Shen Jingyi in front of her, and she avoided him and said, "You stopped suddenly and I bumped into you. You can't blame me."
After saying this, Ning Wan lowered her head very consciously, rubbing the hurt part with her hands, but her eyes were cautiously trying to raise it.
Shen Jingyi looked at Ning Wan who had such a big reaction, with the corners of his mouth raised, but he didn't say anything.
After a while, Ning Wan raised her head again, but did not see Shen Jingyi in front of her.
"Princess, do you want to walk back?"
Shen Jingyi looked at Ning Wan, who hadn't recovered from her shock for a long time, and spoke bluntly.
He saw that this wild ghost was afraid of death and loved life. She really thought that the phoenix hairpin could protect her.
Even though he knew it and was afraid, he still pretended to be calm and dealt with it himself.
Ning Wan raised her head following the voice, only to find that Shen Jingyi had already gotten into the carriage.
Hmm? Carriage...
Then why didn’t you just take the carriage?
Although Ning Wan was doubtful, she still sat on it honestly.
Shen Yi was driving the carriage in front.
Just like when they came, Ning Wan lifted the curtain and looked out, while Shen Jingyi beside her remained silent.
The atmosphere between the two was surprisingly harmonious, yet gave people a superficial calmness.
This kind of tranquility can be broken by just a small stone, but the two protagonists chose to play dumb at the critical moment.
Xiao Qi in the corner breathed a sigh of relief.
It didn't expect that Shen Jingyi would be so straightforward to explore the host's meridians.
If it hadn't reacted in time, the host's ability to use internal energy would have been exposed.
…
Three days later, the news of Ning Wan and Shen Jingyi's discord reached Wu Qi's ears.
Wu Qi looked at the letter from the palace and without any hesitation placed it next to the candle and lit it to destroy the evidence.
Just at this moment, Ning Mu appeared.
"What are you doing?"
Ning Mu originally wanted to find Wu Qi to plan a quick attack on the city, but he didn't expect to witness this scene.
The sudden questioning made Wu Qi's hands tremble, but after realizing who the person was, Wu Qi did not say anything, but just let the letter paper burn faster under his operation.
Seeing Wu Qi remained silent, Ning Mu realized something was wrong and his eyes turned to the letter paper that Wu Qi had burned.
Although Ning Mu wanted to speak up to stop him, he knew it was too late.
"Why burn it?" Ning Mu questioned. He looked at Wu Qi who quickly knelt down to apologize, then looked at the letter paper that had turned to ashes. He felt confused and annoyed for no reason.
He couldn't find any information about his elder sister in the first place, and now this person was hiding everything from him. How could he feel at ease?
Wu Qi did not regret burning the letter.
If Shen Jingyi wanted to find a breakthrough from Ning Wan and get the Phoenix Hairpin, he had to be one step ahead of him and help Ning Mu regain the throne as soon as possible.
Human nature is weak, let alone in the face of life.
Ning Wan was able to convince Shen Jingyi to release her by faking his own death. She must have paid something precious.
If Shen Jingyi threatened Ning Wan with her life again, she would definitely hand over the Phoenix Hairpin based on her past personality.
By then, the tiger talisman in his hand will be nothing more than a piece of scrap metal, and the revival of Daning will inevitably have only one result.
Wu Qi didn't want Ning Mu to become a sinner in the world, and he didn't want Ning Mu to lose his composure because of this.
"Your Majesty, this isn't an important letter." Wu Qi thought of an excuse to get out of it. "It's just a letter from my family."
Based on Wu Qi's understanding of Ning Mu, if Ning Mu really knew the news, there would be no way he would stay calm and deploy defenses.
Maybe they will even launch an uprising overnight.
"A letter from home?"
Ning Mu's tone was clearly unconvinced. "Even if it was a letter from home, why destroy it so quickly?"
After all, Ning Mu had been the emperor for several years. How could he be deceived by Wu Qi's simple words?
"Wu Qi, do you think I'm stupid?"
"I'm going to ask you one last time, is there any news about my sister in the letter?"
There was probably only one reason that could make Wu Qi destroy the letter even at the risk of being guilty of disrespect.
Wu Qi's eyes were filled with horror, and with a hint of disbelief at being wronged, he kowtowed as soon as he was told.
Seeing this scene, Ning Mu also had the answer in his mind.
"Do you really think you can deceive me? Who gave you the courage to lie to me like this?"
Ning Mu also wanted to calm down.
But now, his sister is missing, the only and last relative he has in this world.
He was so close to getting news about his elder sister, but the person in front of him destroyed it without leaving a trace and even tried to conceal it under the pretext of a letter home.
"I didn't hide this from the emperor on purpose. It's just that the emperor should focus on the overall situation..." Wu Qi tried to awaken Ning Mu's dormant patriotism and remind him that he still had the heavy responsibility of being the ruler of a country.
"Shut up, I don't want to hear this."
"I became the emperor to unconditionally favor those I care about. If anything happens to my sister, whoever holds the power of love in this world will be in control!"
"What happened to my elder sister?" Ning Mu finally couldn't control his emotions and pulled Wu Qi's collar with both hands.
After lifting Wu Qi from the ground, he slid his hands to his shoulders and began to shake him.
After shaking for about five minutes, Wu Qi was thrown to the ground by Ning Mu.
