Since Shen Bokang was complicit in her parent’s murder, it was likely that the Emperor was also an accomplice.
Looking at Feng Tianlan’s face, Shen Yunya suddenly laughed out loud, feeling smug like the winner. She said, “Shen Qingdai, you see how fate plays with you. I know you asked Xi Lin to investigate, so she certainly is aware. But she selfishly did not tell you. You still find yourself deserted and alone after all.”
Feng Tianlan looked at her laughing madly and gave an indifferent ‘oh,’ as if she did not care.
“You don’t care?” When Shen Yunya saw how indifferent Feng Tianlan was, she somewhat winced. She remembered when she told Shen Qingdai the truth at the time, she found it abhorrent. Why was she so indifferent now?
Feng Tianlan smiled at her and said, “You have an ulterior motive. Why should I believe you?”
Of course, she cared. She cared very much. But why should she show it in front of Shen Yunya now to make her happy?
“Mobai, let’s go.” Feng Tianlan took a look at her and did not want to stay. She was going to question the Emperor.
Si Mobai understood what she had in mind. He held her slim waist and they left.
Shen Yunya rushed at her back and shouted, “Shen Qingdai, sooner or later you will be abandoned by everyone. Xi Lin will be next!”
For Feng Tianlan, Shen Yunya was nothing other than spent force, a grasshopper jumping blindly. There was no need to take her seriously.
“She’s going to the Emperor. Isn’t any one of you going to inform the Crown Prince? Say Shen Qingdai knows her parent’s real murderer and is going to kill the Emperor. Why aren’t you reporting it?” Shen Yunya shouted at the palace guards like a maniac.
No good end would come to her. Everyone could forget about having an easy time. For Xi Jin to like Shen Qingdai, even if she never revealed the matter about the dumplings, this matter with the Emperor alone was enough to make him no longer qualified to like Shen Qingdai!
It was brightly lit outside the royal study, and the Dongshu Emperor was seriously going through the imperial documents.
“Mobai, what do you think I should do?” Feng Tianlan hesitated outside the royal study. She did not know what to do. If it were true, she must also kill the Emperor, but Xi Jin and Xi Lin…
It was a dilemma. On the one hand, there was more than ten years of friendship to consider, and on the other hand here was the enemy who killed her parents. She was caught in the middle, and she was leaning toward revenge. After all, those were her parents.
Si Mobai held her hand and said solemnly, “Lan’er, since this happened, don’t think so much. Ask and investigate first. If it’s true, then follow your own heart. I’ll be by your side no matter what you may lose. You will not lose me.”
If it were true, no matter what she did, she would lose her friend, Xi Lin. He did not want her to suffer. But she would not feel good no matter what she did.
Feng Tianlan gave a light sound of agreement then sighed heavily. “Okay.”
Now that it had happened and since it could not be avoided, she had to face it. She would avenge her parents no matter what happened.
Si Mobai walked Feng Tianlan directly to the window and entered. Even if this was the Xuantian Continent and Dongshu Nation, he still could not be stopped.
The Dongshu Emperor was going through the imperial documents under the candlelight when he saw two people suddenly appear in front of him. The red zhusha abruptly dropped on top of the imperial document. He glanced down. It happened to be a murder case of revenge for the father. It should have been a quick decision of capital punishment. However, when he saw Feng Tianlan appear, he jotted something down with his brush and returned the imperial document to let the local magistrate carry out the major punishment.
“You’re here.” When he was done with the imperial document, the Emperor put down the brush and was very calm.
