At this time, there was a light knock on the door and Leng Shuang's voice came from outside.
"Master."
"Come in."
Fengjiu and Guan Xilin went to the table outside and sat down. They saw Leng Shuang, dressed in black, walk in with a tray in his hands.
"Master, young master, this is bird's nest porridge that the head of the household had people make." He placed two bowls of bird's nest in front of the two before retreating to the side.
"Has my grandfather gone to sleep?" Fengjiu ate the bird's nest porridge while asking.
"A 'Hua is keeping watch at the head of the household. He said that he has already gone to sleep." Leng Shuang spoke then paused: "The six phoenix guards have arrived and are waiting outside. They want to see master."
Fengjiu ate the bird's nest porridge and moved the bowl to the side, saying: "Have them stay in the manor for now. When I have time, I will see them again."
"Yes." Leng Shuang complied and went out to pass on the message.
After the six people waiting outside heard this, they looked at each other and left first. When they heard that something had happened to the head of the household, they had rushed back. They originally thought that the eldest young miss was not there, but who knew that she had also returned.
However, they did not know how the head of the household was doing. Had he passed the critical period?
Although the eight people had left the courtyard, they did not go far. Instead, they stood guard around the courtyard like the guards in the manor, silently guarding it.
That night, not to mention Fengjiu and the others, even Murong Bo, who was in the imperial palace, was unable to sleep. He had been worried the entire night. He did not know how Feng Xiao was doing. Had he died? Or had he not died?
At that time, he had been able to hear his voice. If he had not died, then perhaps …
Thinking of this, he stood up and paced back and forth in his bedroom. He was restless and could only hope that the sun would rise soon so that he could send people to inquire about the situation.
Originally, he had wanted to send people over tonight to prevent any future trouble, but after hearing that the Feng manor was being strictly guarded, he gave up on that idea. If he sent people over to assassinate him tonight, he feared that it would arouse their suspicions.
After thinking it over, he could only give up on that idea.
Just like them, Murong Yi Xuan, who was in the Wangfu, couldn't sleep tonight. Today, his father's expression and actions made him somewhat suspicious. He was afraid that the attack on Feng Xiao really had something to do with him. If that was the case …
No! Perhaps he had guessed wrongly. Perhaps his father would not do something so impulsive and reckless.
However, there was a voice in his heart telling him that he was most likely the one who did it, because he wanted to kill Feng Xiao at that time. If Feng Xiao had died at that time, then everything would have been under his control, and there would have been no such anxious and worried situation.
The various factions in Yunyue City were all deep in thought. If Feng Xiao fell, what would happen to the Feng manor? If Feng Xiao fell, would the Feng manor belong to the imperial family or would it be taken over by one of the Feng manor's side branches?
After all, without Feng Xiao holding down the entire Feng manor, just the old Old Master Feng and the sixteen year old Feng Qing Ge would not be able to protect the large Feng manor. As for what would happen to the Feng manor in the end? They were all very curious. Thus, they were all paying attention to Feng Xiao's life or death.
Until the next day, when the sun rose, almost every family and faction had sent people to inquire about the situation …
What was strange was that there were no mournful cries coming from the Feng manor. There were no white lanterns hanging in front of the gates, and there was no news of Feng Xiao's death.
Then, was he alive?
