Chapter 68: Concocting a Crime

Feng Yun returned to Huaxi Village and immediately became busy.

The rumors about the Empress Dowager and Wei Zheng were becoming more intense, so she had to make some preparations in the village, in anticipation of Wei Zheng's retaliation.

Feng Yun didn't particularly care about Pei Jue's illness and had no energy to be concerned. As long as Pei Jue wasn't going to die for the time being, that was fine. His suffering and pain did not evoke her empathy.

Having not seen her elder brother for a long time and having received no news about him from He Qia, Feng Yun was somewhat agitated. Unexpectedly, Pei Jue suddenly rode into Huaxi Village the next afternoon.

Unlike before, when he usually arrived after dark and brought only two guards, Zuo Zhong and Jiu You, this time he brought more than twenty people.

Pei Jue had not yet arrived, and Feng Yun had already been informed.

By the time Pei Jue reached the entrance of the village, she was already there waiting with her people.
