Chapter 148 Death Confirmed
The Queen disliked Bai Mohan very much. Bai Mohan's reputation had spread throughout the Shang Kingdom. Everyone knew that he was arrogant and cruel.
Hearing that he insisted on marrying his beloved daughter, she was displeased for a moment, "Your Highness Prince Mo, if you insist on marrying the Crown Princess, would you be willing to do so even if it means you can only be a concubine?"
After hearing this, Bai Mohan bowed and said, "I am willing. Thank you, mother, for your support."
The Queen and everyone else were stunned. She had originally just wanted to mock Bai Mohan, but she hadn't expected him to...
At this moment, Feng Zhaoyun stepped out directly, "Your Majesty! I do not wish to do so!"
Bai Mohan was slightly stunned. She had actually refused in public! He turned around and looked at Feng Zhaoyun with a look of grievance and said, "Your Highness kissed me and touched my hand in Yan Country. You did the same thing a few days ago in Shang Country. My innocence was taken away by Your Highness... But Your Highness... doesn't want to take responsibility..."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Feng Zhaoyun...
Feng Zhaoyun pointed at him, his face full of anger, "You!"
The Queen finally understood that Bai Mohan had been entangled with her daughter for a long time, so she sighed, "Princess, is this true?"
Feng Zhaoyun quickly bowed, "Your Majesty...it is true...but!"
The Queen slammed the table and said, "Then the Prince will enter the Crown Princess's residence. Three days later, he will marry His Royal Highness Prince Mo as his concubine! I will send a marriage proposal to the Queen of Yan."
After saying this, Feng Zhaoyun hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty! Your son!"
The Queen looked at her coldly. Feng Zhaoyun shut up for a moment and glanced at Bai Jinzhi beside her.
Bai Jinzhi met her gaze, his expression dim for a moment, then he retracted his gaze, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I am tired and will return to the Duke's Mansion first."
At this time, the Queen looked at the two Bai brothers, then looked at Duke Feng and said, "Since that's the case, you three, father and son, should withdraw together and go back to reminisce about the past."
The three of them stepped out and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty.
Bai Mohan noticed Duke Feng on the first day he arrived. He didn't have a good impression of his father. He had never received his father's love since he was a child and had long been accustomed to living alone.
When I came to Shang Kingdom, even though I met Duke Feng, I felt no emotion at all. Perhaps it was because I missed my father when I was a child and I was tired of crying...
After the three people left, the Queen continued to hold court.
Feng Zhaoyun, however, stood in her seat with a distracted look on her face. Okay, this is great! From now on, the Princess's Mansion will be bustling with activity!
After leaving the court, Feng Zhaoyun did not return home, but walked towards the imperial study.
At this time, Zhou Fuhai came out to make new tea for His Majesty. Seeing the princess, he hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Highness, His Majesty has invited you in. Please come in."
Feng Zhaoyun nodded and stepped into the imperial study.
The empress was writing the marriage documents. Feng Zhaoyun stood in front of the table and knelt in worship. "Mother."
The Queen held the jade pen in her hand without looking up. "In three days, you will personally supervise the execution."
Feng Zhaoyun knelt on the ground and said, "Yes."
For a moment, there was no sound in the imperial study. Feng Zhaoyun was still kneeling on the ground, not saying a word.
After a long time, the empress finished writing the document and affixed the national seal. She put the document aside, accepted the fragrant tea handed to her by Zhou Fuhai, and then looked up at her. "Tell me, what's wrong with you?"
Feng Zhaoyun knelt on the ground and said, "Mother, after the execution, I...I want to go to the Moon Kingdom."
The Queen wasn't surprised to hear this. After taking a sip of the fragrant tea, she put down the teacup and sighed, "I also like Nangong Shang. If he were alive, he would have been the Crown Princess's legitimate husband. But he's dead, so you should forget the past. Nangong Liuying of the Yue Kingdom was cruel and ruthless. In the future, my Shang Kingdom will definitely conquer the Yue Kingdom. When that happens, you will have enough to take care of."
Hearing the news of Nangong Shang's death, Feng Zhaoyun felt as if a knife had been stabbed in the heart once again. "Mother, the new emperor of Yue Kingdom has ascended the throne. It is reasonable for Shang Kingdom to visit him. Why not let Second Sister go? I will be unwell when Second Sister goes, so I will also take leave."
The Queen looked at him coldly, "He's dead! Even if you go, what good will it do? If Nangong Liuying finds out you've entered her territory, there's no way you'll ever come back alive. You're the Princess of Shang, carrying the destiny on your shoulders. How can you act like this?"
Feng Zhaoyun finally looked up at this time, "But she killed my future emperor, didn't she? Should I pretend I don't know about this?"
After saying this, Feng Zhaoyun bowed and said, "Your son... just wants to go and take a look in person, and I won't do anything."
The Queen said, "I forbid it! When the Yan Kingdom's marriage party arrives, you will be married immediately. Nangong Shang... you can forget about it!"
Feng Zhaoyun suddenly raised his head and knelt a few steps forward. "Mother! I'm just going to take a look. Second Sister is not a threat. Nangong Liuying will not make things difficult for her."
The Queen looked at her and said coldly, "Get out..."
Seeing that the Empress refused to give in, Feng Zhaoyun stood up and said, "There's one more thing, Third Sister. I found it."
The Queen was slightly surprised. "Where is it?"
Feng Zhaoyun said, "The Third Emperor's daughter, Feng Yaoxue, colluded with bandits to assassinate the Crown Princess. I rescued her in Yan State and she is currently at my residence. I will secretly bring her to the palace and hand her over to Your Majesty for his punishment."
The Queen seemed to be thinking about it after hearing this. She waved her hand and said, "Withdraw."
After paying his respects, Feng Zhaoyun walked out of the imperial study and headed out of the palace.
When they arrived at the palace gate, a carriage was already waiting. It was not a carriage pulled by eight horses, but one of the size of an ordinary princess's carriage.
After Feng Zhaoyun boarded the carriage, the army led the way and the carriage drove towards the Crown Princess's residence. Jiuyi followed and entered the carriage, kneeling on the carpet. "Master, the spy sent a letter saying that His Majesty Nangong... is indeed dead."
Feng Zhaoyun's face was filled with disappointment. She had ordered people to investigate many times, and she didn't believe that Nangong Shang had died just like that.
Then he looked out the window and asked, "The new emperor has ascended the throne. Has Yan Kingdom invited Shang Kingdom to celebrate?"
Jiuyi nodded and said, "The spy reported that the documents are on the way and you can enter the palace tonight."
Feng Zhaoyun nodded, "Give the order and prepare to leave the capital. I can't wait to settle accounts with Nangong Liuying!"
Jiuyi clasped his fists and said, "But His Majesty has allowed it!"
Feng Zhaoyun shook his head, "Don't alarm others."
