Liang Shuyi thought it was probably about Liu Wuhen. He had already thought of a plan anyway, so he wasn't afraid of her asking more questions. "If I stop her, I'll seem guilty. Let's see what she's going to do. Take the little lady to take a bath, and then coax her to sleep."
"yes."
Liang Shuyi was just about to hand Xiao Shuang'er over to Guizhi when the little one seemed to be fussing or something, clinging to Liang Shuyi's clothes with her little hands and refusing to let go. Liang Shuyi smiled helplessly, holding Xiao Shuang'er in her arms and walking around the room, then said softly, "Oh, Shuang'er is being spoiled. But Mommy has something to go out for. Can Aunt Gui take you out to play for a while?"
Shuang'er babbled, leaving a small saliva mark on Liang Shuyi's clothes, before she let go of her hand and threw herself into Guizhi's arms: "So good."
Just as Guizhi was carrying Xiaoshuang'er out, Princess Fenglai arrived at the door. Liang Shuyi straightened his sleeves and, not caring about the mess on the table, welcomed her in: "Greetings, Princess."
Feng Lai hurriedly helped Liang Shuyi up and said, "Cousin, there's no need to be so polite. I'm sorry for the offense I've caused you before. Today, Feng Lai comes to apologize to you."
"Princess, you're too kind," she said, but Liang Shuyi looked at Feng Lai with a hint of caution. A little later, she quietly sent someone to check on him, who said he was grieving alone, unable to even eat. He instantly returned to normal, much more impressive than Tang Chen.
Feng Lai himself said that he came to apologize, so naturally he also brought some small gifts: "I brought some snacks, I don't know if my cousin likes them."
"...Thank you, Princess. We just had dinner, so just put it here for now." Liang Shuyi glanced at the soup bowls in Yingchun and the others' hands, which were filled with the fragrance of flowers and fruits, and swallowed subconsciously.
The smell was obviously royal jelly, a specialty of Shu. The smell alone was very tempting, but the only drawback was that she couldn't eat such a good thing as honey.
Feng Lai saw that Liang Shuyi was quite satisfied with this small gift, so he continued, "Cousin, Feng Lai is always quick to speak. If I have offended you in any way before, please forgive me."
Liang Shuyi's attitude softened considerably as courtesy was exchanged. "Princess, if you have something to say, please speak directly. Although I can't help much, I'd love to hear it."
Feng Lai's eyes suddenly turned red when she heard this, and before she could even speak, tears were already falling: "Cousin, considering our close relationship, please tell me honestly, is he still alive? Are you all lying to me?"
Facing Feng Lai's repeated questioning, Liang Shuyi could only helplessly say, "Feng Lai, let me be frank. You're obsessed with him, but he's never mentioned you to me. Is it really worth it for you to do this?"
Feng Lai was like a child who would not give up until he achieved his goal. He clung to the already vague person in his memory, as well as his own heart. "Whether it was worth it or not, it was all a dream from my youth. Even if the dream is shattered, I want to see everything in the dream turn to ashes with my own eyes."
Now that things had come to this, Liang Shuyi couldn't just give in and tell her that she was Liu Wuhen. They had just fought two days ago, and she didn't want to fight again. They were both mothers, and it would have a bad influence: "If you don't believe what I say, you can ask someone to investigate."
Princess Fenglai explained very bluntly, "I want this too, but I can't let my father know, and I don't trust your people."
"Then there's nothing we can do..." Liang Shuyi was about to say that if she couldn't trust anyone, Shu Kingdom was rich anyway, so she could pay people in the black market to help her investigate.
Before he could finish his words, Feng Lai took out an icy dagger from somewhere and pressed it tightly against Liang Shuyi's neck: "What are you doing!"
Princess Fenglai still had pitiful tears on her face, but her red eyes were already filled with murderous intent: "I don't believe he's dead, cousin. I'm sorry to have to put you in this situation."
Liang Shuyi could clearly feel the dull pain in her neck. Feng Lai's dagger could cut through iron like mud, so she decided not to provoke her. "Feng Lai, please don't do this. Is it really worth it for a dead person?"
Feng Lai smiled a little crazily: "Anyway, now everyone in Qingliang Valley can only worship me. As long as I get the answer I want, I will naturally not do anything to my cousin."
Liang Shuyi continued to persuade him, "...you must think carefully. What if the truth is far more cruel than what I tell you? How will you cope with it?"
Feng Lai no longer cared about so much at this moment. The obsession that had been in her heart for many years was now turning into a demon in her heart: "It doesn't matter. I just want an answer. I don't care about anything else. I will take you to find Chen Xin. If he doesn't fear me as a princess, how could he not care about you as his wife?"
Yingchun and Xixin stood beside Fenglai, like two wooden figures, not daring to speak or move. It seemed that even they had not expected that Fenglai would think of kidnapping Liang Shuyi. Originally, he told them that he was just here to give them some gifts and keep in touch with them. Why did things get so weird?
Guizhi, still a little worried, left. She changed Xiao Shuang'er into thick clothes and a thick cloak. Just as she was about to go back to check on the situation inside, she saw Princess Fenglai holding a dagger to Liang Shuyi's neck. She dared not say a word with the child, so she could only quietly run away to seek help from Tang Chen.
... Tang Chen had just coaxed the child to sleep and was about to go out for a walk to digest his food. As soon as he pushed the door open, he bumped into Guizhi who was carrying Xiao Shuang'er. "Guizhi, why did you bring her here? What if she catches a cold?"
Guizhi panted heavily as she said, "Madam, Princess Fenglai has kidnapped the young lady. Please help her."
Tang Chen thought he had misheard. After a moment's reaction, he said, "What did you say? Is she crazy? Is it because of that person?"
Guizhi wasn't quite sure who the person they were talking about was, so she just said, "It should be her. I was just about to take the young lady back when I saw her threatening her with a knife."
Tang Chen stamped his feet and slapped his thigh, saying, "Oh my God, I've never seen a girl like this before. She's been spoiled. Someone come!"
"exist."
The Qilin Guard appeared somewhat bewildered and looked at Tang Chen blankly. Tang Chen didn't say much, but simply ordered: "Bring the Second Madam and Princess Fenglai here. Don't hurt anyone, and don't let them hurt anyone."
"yes."
After a while, the Qilin Guards tied up Feng Lai and Liang Shuyi, carried them on their shoulders, and brought them to Tang Chen. As for Yingchun and Xixin, they were too troublesome, so he knocked them down with a single blow.
