Chapter 244: Falling in love with someone else?
Leng Yue didn't expect that her plan would be discovered by the vase in front of her.
Her mind raced as to what had gone wrong.
Could it be the time when the drug was administered? But her speed was impossible for anyone to detect...
Soon, the guards from the Prime Minister's Mansion poured in.
Leng Yue had already made up her mind that she wanted to get rid of He Yunshu as quickly as possible.
Since soft tactics don’t work, let’s just use hard tactics!
Just as she was about to take action, she suddenly heard a familiar voice, "Stop!"
Leng Yue and He Yunshu looked over together.
"Brother Liefeng, why did you bother to come here in person?"
He Yunshu seemed like a different person, as if he was greatly frightened.
He staggered to his feet, and as he spoke, he walked towards the gale. No, he walked backwards...
The other people present here are like air...
It seems that the trip to the Prime Minister's Mansion was not in vain, and I even got some unexpected gains.
Liefeng put some distance between himself and He Yunshu without leaving a trace.
He Yunshu saw this, steadied himself, and then said to the others: "All of you go down!"
Leng Yue followed the crowd and wanted to take this opportunity to slip away and think of other ways.
Unexpectedly, she had already walked past Liefeng and He Yunshu, but was stopped by He Yunshu.
"You, stay."
Leng Yue lowered his head and dared not move forward.
When He Yunshu saw that everyone had left, he went closer to Liefeng again.
"Brother Liefeng, she was the one who wanted to harm me just now~"
This coquettish tone can make people feel cold to death!
Leng Yue was getting goosebumps just standing there.
"My lady, even if you have a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to do that!"
Any normal person would object like this, right?
"Still want to quibble?!"
"There's something added to the black plum soup I drink every day. How can I not smell it?"
"Brother Liefeng, you just need to take this bowl of black plum soup and test it!"
Leng Yue: ...
What a dog nose you have!
But with Liefeng around, she knew she would be fine. It was just that this dog's nose ruined her plans...
Liefeng slowly picked up the bowl of black plum soup and sniffed it. "Hmm, it was indeed poisoned."
"With this dosage, you'll die peacefully within half an hour."
"I didn't expect this little girl to be so kind."
He Yunshu was full of questions. Kindness?
Should I thank her for giving her a decent death?
Before He Yunshu could ask, Liefeng continued, "Don't worry, Miss. I promised your father that I would protect you, and I will never break my promise."
"Leave this man to me. Miss, please don't worry about the poisoning. Even if you are poisoned, you can still detoxify."
"You should prepare for the election."
After Liefeng finished speaking, he picked up Lengyue like a chicken and walked out.
He Yunshu said to him unwillingly from behind, "Brother Liefeng, listen to me, I don't want to enter the palace, it's my father who forced me to do it!"
"In my heart..."
Leng Yue didn’t hear what was said afterwards. It was all because Liefeng left too fast!
"That's enough, that's enough, there's no one here, let go!"
Leng Yue said strugglingly.
Liefeng suddenly let go of Lengyue, and she fell to the ground.
"How careless!"
"Why attack He Qizong's daughter now?"
Leng Yue didn't seem to care. She dusted herself off and asked, "Why? Have you fallen in love with someone else so quickly? Have you fallen in love with this young lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
"But this He Yunshu is indeed very attractive."
"What a shame! I'm going to marry someone else soon..."
Lie Feng was speechless for a moment, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Leng Yue saw that Lie Feng still had an expressionless face as usual, so she didn't plan to tease him anymore.
"On the day of the election, Xueying will enter the palace with Crown Prince Mu Yuan."
Leng Yue stopped there, and Lie Feng was incredulous. "Is this Blood Shadow's decision?"
"Does she know the consequences of this?"
"She...really fell in love with the prince?"
Leng Yue didn't know how to answer her question, because she had never heard her say who she liked.
"This is all part of the plan. Don't forget, we haven't avenged our great vengeance yet."
Lie Feng looked solemn, "I know."
"I will use my own way to put an end to those who killed the Meng family one by one!"
Leng Yue had a bad feeling, "Killing is easy, but clearing the name of the deceased is difficult, so the family annihilation case must be retried."
"You'd better not act rashly."
She knew that Lie Feng was definitely not a simple person in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but whether it was for the mission or for her own selfish reasons, she didn't want Lie Feng to get into trouble...
"And don't get too close to the other members of [Falling Rain], especially the one up there."
It will be taken down eventually, so why work so hard to complete the task?
"Actually, I came here to see you. I've already told you the plan, so we still need to be prepared."
"If anything happens to Blood Shadow, our people will be ready to meet him outside the palace."
Liefeng nodded.
"If Ying insists on doing this, I will protect her."
Everything that needs to be said has been said, Liefeng will definitely be able to arrange it.
She didn't dare stay too long and quickly left the Prime Minister's Mansion under the cover of the strong wind.
But the moment she left the Prime Minister's Mansion, Leng Yue couldn't help but wonder, she seemed to be able to get along normally with Lie Feng instead of blindly obeying him.
After this little episode at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Leng Yue realized that tomorrow was the day for the palace election.
According to the agreement, Xin Youran should have arrived at Yuemanlou Inn.
But she searched the entire capital and couldn't find her.
Could something have happened?
She thought of Lao Guan, and when she rushed to Anhe Pharmacy, she saw that Lao Guan was busy and didn't want to disturb him.
However, the owner of the drug store seemed to recognize Leng Yue.
"Are you here to look for Xiaoguan?"
"Come in, come in. The pharmacy has been really busy these past few days, and now two of the shop assistants have quit, so Xiaoguan is even busier."
"But don't worry, I'll give him double the wages, hehe."
Leng Yue said nothing, just nodded and smiled.
"Boss, when did Brother Guan come to the pharmacy this morning?"
The drugstore owner asked, "This morning?"
"Didn't you take Xiaoguan's carriage back to the village that day? He came early the next morning, and since he was so busy, he stayed at the pharmacy."
So that’s how it is. Could it be that Xin Youran hasn’t returned to the capital yet?
Seeing that Lao Guan was still busy, Leng Yue didn't say anything. He said hello to the shopkeeper and left.
She had to go back to Crescent Valley as soon as possible.
It was already noon when she rushed back to Crescent Valley, and she went straight to Wei Mayan's courtyard.
At this time, Chu Yuming and Wei Mayan were anxiously surrounding the bed where Xin Youran was lying.
"Brother Yu, it's been so long, what went wrong?"
Chu Yuming didn't know how to answer. He had never encountered such a situation in the book, and his master had never mentioned it either.
But people breathe and have pulses.
When Leng Yue arrived, he saw this scene.
Xin Youran lay quietly on the bed, looking like a living dead.
Thinking back to how she was jumping up and down a few days ago, it’s hard to believe how long it’s been.
She kept saying that she wanted to go back to the village with Chanchan and Xiao Anning.
She knew it wouldn't be that simple.
But she never expected that she would play so big this time...
"Brother Chu, will she never wake up from now on..."
