Chapter 38 Persistence

"Okay, my dear, please go back. I will deal with this matter and I will give you a satisfactory answer." The emperor waved his hand and signaled Duke Yu to retreat, but did not say what to do.

"I will leave, Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body!" Duke Yu bowed and said, but he did not forget to remind the emperor before leaving, but his eyes were staring at Sheng Zhiyao, as if the next person she wanted to poison was the emperor.

As soon as Duke Yu left, Sheng Zhiyao couldn't help but burst into laughter.

When the emperor saw Sheng Zhiyao suddenly laughing, he couldn't help but frown and asked in confusion: "Why are you laughing at?"

Sheng Zhiyao restrained her smile and replied seriously: "I'm laughing at Duke's eyes!"

The emperor was stunned: "What's wrong with him?"

"He looked at me as if the next person I want to poison is Grandpa Emperor. What kind of ghost look is this?" Sheng Zhiyao curled her lips.

The emperor laughed: "So you know it too, then I will tell you that that's what he thinks."

Sheng Zhiyao couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Of course I know, this Duke Yu is really getting back to life!"

"Haha!" The emperor laughed: "In fact, Duke Yu is just a martial artist. He doesn't understand the twists and turns. The real smart one is Prime Minister Qi!"

"I can see it, I look like a treacherous minister, hum!" Sheng Zhiyao snorted coldly.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. You are talking about how you want to prove your innocence. Grandpa is waiting." The emperor looked at Sheng Zhiyao with a smile, waiting for Sheng Zhiyao's answer.

Sheng Zhiyao tilted her head: "This really needs the help of Grandpa, so I may not be able to catch the real murderer at that time."

Sheng Zhiyao attached himself to the emperor's ear and said his plan. The emperor nodded repeatedly: "No problem, otherwise it's better tomorrow! You'll be relieved early if you resolve the rumors."

"Tomorrow? It's OK. I'll go back to the Marquis' Mansion to prepare." Sheng Zhiyao nodded. The longer the matter was delayed, the more unfavorable it would be for him. Moreover, he had been identified as a criminal by the ministers. If it was a little later, the rumors would spread more widely.

The emperor did not try to keep him after hearing this, but just told Sheng Zhiyao: "Remember, be careful in everything."

"Yeah, I understand!" Sheng Zhiyao responded.

After leaving the palace, Sheng Zhiyao returned to the Marquis' Mansion, and she wanted to make some preparations.

As soon as Sheng Zhiyao arrived at the door of her house, she met an unexpected person.

Sheng Zhiyao looked at the person standing at the door and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why are you here?"

"I heard that people in the palace said that you poisoned the emperor's grandmother." Feng Yuanqing said to Sheng Zhiyao.

"Oh, your news is quite fast." Sheng Zhiyao said sarcastically.

Feng Yuanqing ignored Sheng Zhiyao and continued, "I don't believe it!"

Sheng Zhiyao didn't say anything, but just looked at Feng Yuanqing quietly, as if she wanted to see what medicine was sold in Feng Yuanqing's gourd.

"I don't believe you are that kind of vicious woman. You and the emperor's grandmother have no grudges and will definitely not do this." Feng Yuanqing stared at Sheng Zhiyao without blinking his eyes.

Sheng Zhiyao was speechless. Unexpectedly, Feng Yuanqing thought so, pretending to be quite similar.

"Thank you for believing it, but I was surprised that such words came from your mouth." Sheng Zhiyao looked at Feng Yuanqing coldly and said.

Feng Yuanqing's face changed instantly when he heard this.

"Why, are you still angry?" Sheng Zhiyao asked mockingly.

Feng Yuanqing took a deep breath, slowly vomited it out, and his face slowly returned to normal: "I know you don't like me now, but I don't believe you are such a person, so there must be some misunderstanding!"

"Haha, what kind of person I am has nothing to do with you, you should just take care of yourself." Sheng Zhiyao glanced at Feng Yuanqing contemptuously.

Feng Yuanqing's face became ugly again. Of course he understood Sheng Zhiyao's meaning, but he was really unwilling to accept it. As long as his grand grandson said a lot, the noble girl was willing to be with him, Sheng Zhiyao was reluctant to do so. He was really ungrateful.

Sheng Zhiyao was too lazy to pay attention to Feng Yuanqing, so she turned around and walked towards the Hou's mansion.

Seeing this, Feng Yuanqing hurriedly chased after him, trying to hold Sheng Zhiyao.

But Sheng Zhiyao had long guessed that Feng Yuanqing would do this, and she bent her body and drilled directly under his arm, and Feng Yuanqing stopped him.

Feng Yuanqing stared at Sheng Zhiyao's back with gloomy eyes, wishing he could eat Sheng Zhiyao.

"This damn girl dares to avoid me. It's so hateful!" Feng Yuanqing clenched his fists and roared.

After Sheng Zhiyao entered the Marquis' Mansion, she saw a whole family gathering in the yard with a worried look on her face.

"Father, mother!" Sheng Zhiyao hurriedly ran over and shouted when she saw Sheng Zhengye and Qi Xinyue.

"You are finally back." Sheng Zhengye couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw his precious daughter coming back safely.

Sheng Zhiyao looked at the anxious expression on the face of the family, and a warm current surged in her heart. No matter what she encountered, her family was always the closest person she was and always stood on her side.

Sheng Zhengye saw Sheng Zhiyao not saying anything, but patted Sheng Zhiyao on the shoulder with his hand and signaled Sheng Zhiyao to go into the room to sit.

After Sheng Zhiyao entered the room, the family gathered around.

"Zhiyao, are you okay?" Qi looked at Sheng Zhiyao worriedly, with anxiety on his face.

Sheng Zhiyao shook her head and said with a smile: "Mother, what can I do?"

"That's good!" Qi breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Old Marquis Sheng and asked Old Marquis Sheng: "Dad, what's going on with Zhiyao? Why would anyone falsely accuse her and poison the queen!"

Sheng Lixin sighed and said, "I have sent someone to investigate this matter."

Hearing Sheng Lixin say this, a smile appeared on Qi's face: "Dad, you want to make the decision for Zhiyao! This kind of person is simply too much!"

"I know, don't worry."

Sheng Lixin looked at Sheng Zhiyao and asked, "Zhiyao, what are your plans?"

"This matter will have a result tomorrow. When the result comes out, you will know who is spreading rumors and you can also catch a murderer."

"Then what are you going to deal with that person?" Qi Xinyue looked at Sheng Zhiyao worriedly. Although Sheng Zhiyao said it calmly, she was still very nervous. After all, this was a murder of the queen. If the emperor really believed the rumors, the consequences would be serious. It would not be surprising that the emperor killed people in anger.

"I plan to make that man pay the price." A cold light flashed in Sheng Zhiyao's eyes.

When everyone saw Sheng Zhiyao's expression, they couldn't help but tremble. Sheng Zhengye and Qi Xinyue had never seen their daughter have such a side, and they immediately didn't know what to say.

At night, Sheng Zhiyao lay in her bedroom all night.

At dawn, she got up and washed, dressed neatly, and headed straight for the palace gate.

When I arrived at the palace gate, I found a carriage parked at the door. It seemed that someone arrived before her.

"Zhiyao!" Sheng Zhiyao looked up and saw Feng Yuanqing wearing a gorgeous dress and graceful dress.

A look of disgust flashed in Sheng Zhiyao's eyes. Feng Yuanqing was always gloomy, so why did he follow him again?

Feng Yuanqing was not discouraged when he saw Sheng Zhiyao ignore him. Instead, he stepped forward a few steps to block Sheng Zhiyao's way.

"I have something to say to you." Feng Yuanqing looked arrogant.

"I have nothing to say to you." Sheng Zhiyao said coldly.

Feng Yuanqing couldn't help but feel angry when he saw Sheng Zhiyao's attitude, but he still held it back. He couldn't annoy Sheng Zhiyao.

"Zhiyao, I entered the palace today to find justice for Your Majesty." Feng Yuanqing said.
