Kill Wei Yanzhou?
Cheng Ning trembled all over: "Do you know what you are talking about?"
"You are from the Cheng family! Your surname is Cheng!" Cheng Fengxu was as strict as when he was a child taking Cheng Ning's exams: "For the sake of the Cheng family, you cannot accept Wei Yanzhou as your concubine. Do you think he will treat you well?"
Cheng Fengxu once regretted not killing Wei Yanzhou.
When he was a child and didn't understand everything.
There was some movement outside. It seemed that someone was suspicious because Cheng Ning hadn't been out for a long time.
The footsteps are coming here.
Cheng Ning thought that after meeting her father, the truth would be close to her.
At least we can understand the reason why the Cheng family was sent to jail.
But obviously, the father hid no less than Wei Yanzhou.
There is no rebellion.
No matter who met her, they always said this, the Cheng family was not plotting rebellion.
But Wei Yanzhou was determined to punish the Cheng family for treason.
Who does she believe?
She once believed in her father that the Cheng family would not covet the power of the Wei family.
Because the Cheng family is her root, no matter whether it is her father, her brother, or her side branches, no one has the intention to rise to the top.
But as things come to this point.
She couldn't help but start to doubt, not whether her father had any intention of usurping the throne.
But he doubted what his father had done.
Otherwise, why would Wei Yanzhou be killed?
What can be ensured by killing Wei Yanzhou?
Cheng Fengxu grabbed Cheng Ning's hand and asked forcefully, "Do you understand?"
He didn't care about anything else, as long as Wei Yanzhou died.
"Dad," Cheng Ning calmed down and looked into Cheng Fengxu's eyes: "Tell me, does what you want to hide have something to do with the first empress and Concubine Wen?"
"..."
Cheng Fengxu's pupils shrank, and the hand holding Cheng Ning turned cold for an instant.
Cheng Ning thought to herself that she was right, as expected, she had something to do with Concubine Wen.
"What did Wei Yanzhou tell you?!" Cheng Fengxu sneered after a long time: "You believe what he said! Cheng Ning, are you really confused by him?"
In fact, Wei Yanzhou never mentioned a word about Concubine Wen.
It was all Cheng Ning's guess.
"When I asked you to marry Wei Yanshu as soon as possible, you refused. But now, you have become Wei Yanzhou's concubine. Don't people outside laugh at you?"
Cheng Fengxu was obviously emotional.
Cheng Ning ignored him and changed the subject, and only asked: "What did Concubine Wen do?"
Cheng Fengxu gritted his teeth, obviously not wanting to say anything.
His expression spoke volumes.
Cheng Ning added: "You had a transaction with Concubine Wen or the late Queen. Regarding Wei Yanzhou's life experience, it may also involve Wei Yanshu, right?"
His daughter has been smart since she was a child and knows everything.
Even though he and Wei Yanzhou wanted her to stay away from the truth, she could still guess some on her own.
Cheng Fengxu didn't speak, and Cheng Ning continued talking on his own: "I have always wondered why Concubine Wen was always kinder to Wei Yanshu than Wei Yanzhou, but she could be cold to Wei Yanzhou, her biological son. to describe it.”
The crux of the matter has been revealed.
Cheng Fengxu gritted his teeth: "You don't need to know that."
"Then what should I do? Watch you die, or listen to you and kill Wei Yanzhou?"
Cheng Ning smiled bitterly: "As long as I can succeed, Wei Yanzhou will die many times."
'Da da,'
The sound of footsteps came from far away: "Sir?"
Someone is here.
Cheng Ning stood up quickly, but received no answer from Cheng Fengxu. She seemed to have nothing to do: "It doesn't matter, you won't tell me, I will find the answer myself."
Cheng Fengxu finally seemed to admit defeat and said before Cheng Ning left: "Who do you believe? Your father, me, or Wei Yanzhou, who wants to put your family to death?"
"I believe in the truth."
The jailer had appeared around the corner and when he saw the jailer lying on the ground, he immediately called for someone.
Cheng Ning walked over quickly and without saying a word, slashed at him with his knife.
But this time it obviously didn't go so smoothly, and he actually dodged it.
"Come on -!" The jailer turned around and ran away, but was restrained by Cheng Ning from behind, and a cold blade was pressed against his neck.
Cheng Ning's voice was as low as a ghost: "I won't do anything. If you don't say anything, everyone will be in peace. Otherwise, you will have to pay some price."
The jailer didn't dare to say anything. His life was at stake, so he kept nodding.
The next moment, he was knocked unconscious by Cheng Ning.
However, because of Li Nian's incident, there has been a sensation in the prison.
The number of people suddenly increased a lot, and a lot of troops were assigned to watch the Cheng family's cell.
They all seem to be afraid of something happening here.
Cheng Ning had just left Cheng Fengxu's cell but ten meters away when someone behind him screamed: "Someone is injured here! Someone has sneaked in!"
"Catch her, catch that person!"
No matter how fast Cheng Ning walked, he couldn't handle so many people here.
Then Zhou Kuo and his people quickly gathered around.
There are dead ends on all sides.
Because of Cheng Fengxu, Cheng Ning was extremely disturbed and full of anger.
The candlelight in the prison is brightly lit, and many things can be seen clearly.
At the second glance, Zhou Kuo finally recognized something was wrong with the man in front of him.
——He has seen Cheng Ning in handsome armor more than once.
In the past, Cheng Ning looked down upon everything and had the strength of a superior in his heart.
I didn’t recognize him just now after being disguised, but now——
Her whole body was shrouded in hostility, and she came out of the Cheng family's prison. It would be outrageous for Zhou Kuo to not be able to recognize anyone.
"Concubine Cheng, Concubine Xi?!"
What? !
"Empress Xi? It's actually Concubine Xi."
Cheng Ning broke into the prison at night, and his purpose was self-evident.
Zhou Kuo first experienced Li Nian's escape from prison one night, and then Cheng Ning's escape from prison at night. His eyes darkened and he felt that his head was in danger.
"Sir," the subordinate swallowed and said nervously, "do you want to inform your majesty?"
If Li Nian's matter is not a big deal, then Cheng Ning's matter cannot be hidden.
"Let's discuss it," Cheng Ning said speechlessly: "Master Zhou will keep my secret, so I won't say anything in front of Your Majesty. After all, I won't pose any threat."
She did not rob a prison, nor did she do anything threatening.
Zhou Kuo didn't dare to believe her rashly: "Empress, if Your Majesty finds out that you are coming to prison, we cannot bear it."
Wei Yanzhou once issued a death order, and the Cheng family was not allowed to visit him.
What's more, Cheng Ning trespassed without permission.
Cheng Ning did not listen carefully to what Zhou Kuo said. Instead, her eyes fell on someone in the crowd.
The man was wearing the same guard uniform as her, but she had seen him before - Li Nian.
Li Nian, who had been searched all night, turned out to be among them.
And Cheng Ning noticed that he was holding a short knife in his lowered hand.
When everyone's attention was on Cheng Ning, he was no exception.
Zhou Kuo and others found no abnormalities at all.
"His Majesty is staying at Linhua Palace today. As long as I go back on time, there will be no clues. Otherwise, if I lure him here, no one will get any good results. Why bother with this, right?"
As soon as Cheng Ning finished speaking, Li Nian suddenly rushed over!
He held Cheng Ning's neck tightly with one hand, and the knife in the other hand was pressed against Cheng Ning's neck.
No one could react to this sudden change!
Zhou Kuo was completely confused now. The person he had been tracking down all night turned out to be still in prison! ?
Cheng Ning, on the other hand, didn't show any panic at all. She had even expected Li Nian's move.
The last sentence was just intentional.
Li Nian is probably trying to find a way out, but sooner or later he will be discovered in prison.
Cheng Ning became his life-saving straw.
It was completely clear from the look in his eyes just now that he wanted to attack Cheng Ning.
"Go and call Wei Yanzhou over! Go quickly! Just tell me that Concubine Xi is in my hands. If he doesn't let me go, Cheng Ning will be buried with me!"
