"What can I do?" Sima Qiang looked up at the empress dowager and said helplessly, "I just want to save my mother, grandmother. If Sima Rui had not taken a fancy to Murong Xue, how could Murong Feng appear? If Murong Feng had not married Sima Rui for Murong Xue, how could his father have accepted Murong Xue's concubine? My mother married his father for many years and has been obedient. Now, in order not to indulge in beauty, she has to have this solution. Although the result is a bit unexpected, I think my mother's heart is good. But the father actually wanted to strip the title of mother and depose my crown prince. After all, it was all caused by the Murong family."

Murong Feng stood still, looking at Sima Rui, and saw Sima Rui's uneasiness on his face, almost trying to move forward, but because the knife in Sima Qiang's hand was always on her neck, he did not dare to go forward, his eyes were full of worry and panic, and he lost his usual calmness and indifference.

"I want to take her away!" Sima Qiang looked at Sima Rui coldly, "If you dare to take a step forward, I will kill her immediately."

"You let Feng'er go." The Empress Dowager said anxiously.

"If you didn't care about her so much, maybe I would let her go, but if you care about her so much, I would never let her go. I will take her with her to Siguoyuan with her. If your mother has any accidents and you have to do anything to deal with us mother and son, I will kill her immediately!" Sima Qiang said without any room for negotiation, "With her here, you can guarantee the safety of my mother and me. Otherwise, if you do what your mother does, you will definitely be punished by Lingchi's execution. Besides, Siguoyuan is a cold palace. With her body, it is impossible for you to stay for a long time. As long as she is here, you will not torture my mother for her."

Sima Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he was still in this palace, he would have a chance to save her. The knife on Murong Feng's neck was really more shocking than on his own.

"Help my mother up, hurry up!" Sima Qiang ordered the eunuch on the side, "Let's go to Siguoyuan now. Hongyu is in poor health these days. She will send her over after the injury on her hand heals. She has nothing to do with this matter, don't hurt her!"

"Sima Qiang!" The emperor was really angry. Sima Qiang dared to threaten him like this. "I will release Murong Feng immediately. What does this matter have to do with her? How come there is such a far-fetched reason!"

"Husband!" Hongyu suddenly appeared at the door, his face was haggard, and was supported by Xiaowu. "Hurry and let go of Miss Murong and apologize to his father. Mother has been wrong. You can't make any mistakes anymore. Hongyu will definitely accompany you, no matter what the situation occurs."

Sima Qiang used a little force on his hand, and a wisp of blood flowed out from Murong Feng's neck.

"Sima Qiang! If you hurt Feng'er a little more, I will not only not let you go, but I will also make you worse than death!" Sima Rui said coldly. "Now Feng'er is in your hands, I was careless. I didn't expect you to be like this. But if she had any accidents, you and your mother, I will do everything possible to punish you!"

"You dare! My mother is one of the three palaces after all, so where is your turn? Even if she is abolished, she can only be dealt with by her father. You are an unbearable prince, why are you arrogant?" Sima Qiang also said coldly, "In my eyes, you are not a man at all!"

"Since you know that I am a naughty person, you must know that I am not a person who uses the theory of right and wrong. Feng'er is a person more important than my life. If she is wrong, it is equivalent to you taking my life away. How can I have any worries?" Sima Rui knew that he could not save Murong Feng from Sima Qiang at this time. Sima Qiang's current situation gave him the feeling that he was anxious and jumped over the wall. If he angered him, he would probably hurt Feng'er, so he could only protect Feng'er from his hands. "I really have no choice in your hands, but as long as you are in Siguoyuan and your mother exists for a day, I will come up with countless ways to make your mother and son worse than death!"

Sima Qiang snorted coldly, "I have been scared since I was a child. This threat is just to say. Now that Murong Feng is in my hands, it is useless to say anything you say."

"Is that true?" Sima Rui took a few steps forward, arrived in front of Concubine Liu, and said to Concubine Li, "Concubine Li, please take some medicine from your Wumeng Kingdom. You must be the only one with the antidote."

"Okay!" Concubine Li agreed readily and took out a Jinxiang from her body, "This is what I carry with me. The medicine will not cause death, but it is painful. As for the antidote, of course, only Concubine Li has it. This was specially prepared for me by the pharmacist in the palace. You just need to let her take it."

Sima Qiang was stunned. Sima Rui bullied himself in front of Concubine Liu, took the pill handed over by Concubine Li, raised his chin, stuffed it into his mouth, and gently pushed it to swallow it. Then he sneered and looked at Sima Qiang, "Sima Qiang, you have to remember it. I, Sima Rui, are such a despicable person. You took Feng'er as a hostage. If you don't want your mother to suffer any suffering, you can. If you find that Feng'er has any mistakes, your mother will suffer!"

"You!" Sima Qiang looked at Sima Rui hatefully.

"Don't think of me as a gentleman. I am definitely a villain. I have always wanted to theory with you, mother and son. Your hero saved the beauty back then and performed so well. Since the woman Hongyu was fooled, she would go with her. But now I want you to see the villain of Sima Rui, who is not inferior to you back then?" Sima Rui smiled coldly.

"Mother-in-law." Hongyu hurriedly went up to help Liu Fei.

"Get out!" the queen mother said angrily, "No one asked her to get up, she is very brave! I deliberately concealed your behavior back then. If Feng'er made any mistakes in Siguoyuan, you know what the consequences will be?!"

Hong Yu's face was shocked. Could it be that the Empress Dowager would threaten her with the fact that she was pregnant? If Sima Qiang knew that she had a skin-related relationship with Sima Zhe and was pregnant, he would probably kill her before he could relieve her hatred.

Sima Qiang held Murong Feng hostage and stepped back to the door step by step, "Hongyu, help me get up, let's go."

Hongyu hurriedly helped Liu Fei up, and the four of them slowly left Nuanyu Pavilion. The wind outside was very cold, and Sima Qiang couldn't help but chill, "Prepare a carriage for us. This place is too far from Siguoyuan. My mother is in poor health and can't adapt to walking far away."

The emperor looked at them coldly and ordered coldly: "Prepare a carriage for them. Sima Qiang is holding Murong Feng hostage like this, I am afraid that he will accidentally hurt her on the road."

The carriage was driven over and stopped there. Sima Qiang stood in front of the carriage with Murong Feng hostage, and then said to Hongyu: "Hongyu, help your mother up first." Then he raised Murong Feng's body and jumped onto the carriage. The knife in his hand was still pressing on Murong Feng's neck.

Just as he was about to drive the car to leave, Concubine Liu suddenly said, "Qian'er, go down with Hongyu, go kowtow to your father, give me the knife, I'll look at this girl."

Sima Qiang hesitated for a moment, handed over the knife to his mother, got off the carriage with Hongyu, and knelt down at the emperor in front of the carriage.

With a long neigh, the horse suddenly gushed out, and blood gushed out, struggling and running out. Concubine Liu actually stabbed the knife into the horse's back. The horse was frightened and actually ran away with the two people in the carriage. It was vaguely seen that Murong Feng was unstable and fell on the carriage. Concubine Liu was shocked and frightened. Now that she did this, she was thrown out of the carriage, knocked onto a tree, and fainted immediately.

The carriage disappeared into the night instantly.
