Intuition told Wang Chuan that the group of soldiers led by the eunuchs were coming towards them. She very professionally stepped forward and stood in front of the Miao Clan and Zirui. She also protected the little girl, Ying Cao.
Feng Yu Heng was very familiar with this action. The vigilance that had been washed away by the joy of Zirui returning to the capital was immediately restored. She turned around and followed Wang Chuan's gaze. She saw that the group of people had already come close. The eunuch at the front saluted her and said: "This servant, Wu Ying, pays respects to Royal Consort Yu." His tone was strange and he purposely said it in a roundabout way as if he was showing off his status. Their conversation was quite loud, and many commoners on the street looked over.
"Wu Ying?" Feng Yu Heng looked at him and saw that the eunuch uniform he was wearing was different from the navy blue eunuchs in the palace. It was a dark red color, just like what Zhang Yuan used to wear. She understood that this Wu Ying was most likely the eunuch that had replaced Zhang Yuan at Emperor Tianwu's side. She said: "Is Eunuch Wu looking for consort I?"
The eunuch, Wu Ying, had a smile on his face, but that smile could not penetrate his skin. It looked very fake. He then bowed to Feng Yu Heng and said: "Replying to princess, this servant is not looking for princess, but rather the emperor wants to see the Feng family's young master."
"Un?" Feng Yu Heng was surprised, "Father Emperor wants to see Zirui?"
"That's right." Wu Ying said, "The emperor heard that the Feng family's young master was returning to the capital from Xiao Zhou today and specially ordered this servant to come to the city gates to pick him up. The emperor had said that the Feng family's young master could be considered his junior martial brother. Since his junior martial brother had returned to the capital, as his senior martial brother, he had to see him. What's more, the emperor hasn't seen imperial tutor Ye Rong for many years. He really wants to ask the Feng family's young master about the imperial tutor's situation. I hope princess will not stop him. "
Stop them? She wanted to stop him, but was she able to? It was Emperor Tianwu who wanted to see Zirui, and he even gave such an irresistible reason. Anyone who heard that Zirui had to see the Imperial Palace. Some passersby who didn't know what was going on even envied Zirui's good fortune, praising him for being so promising at such a young age and being able to gain the Emperor's favor and calling him junior brother. His future was limitless!
But Feng Yu Heng didn't think this was a good thing at all. If this was in the past, Emperor Tianwu liked Zirui and summoned him to the Imperial Palace to stay for a few days. This was indeed something that made her happy. Because Emperor Tianwu had a good temperament, he treated the people he liked even better, especially Zirui. The old emperor really treated him as his junior martial brother and thought of him whenever there was something good. But could the current Emperor Tianwu be compared to the past? Apart from that shell, he couldn't even be said to be the real Emperor Tianwu. His thoughts were controlled by others, his actions were controlled by others, and he did everything according to other people's orders. Then why did he summon Zirui to the Imperial Palace this time?
Feng Yu Heng's heart felt cold. She felt that this was a conspiracy. The Eighth Prince and Consort Yuanshu were trying to take Zirui to the Imperial Palace as a hostage to threaten her.
She understood all of this, but what could she do? Could she go against an imperial decree in the streets? Obviously not.
The eunuch Wu Ying saw that she didn't have any reaction and couldn't help but urge her: "Wang fei, the emperor is still waiting in the Imperial Palace! The imperial kitchen has already given orders to make all of the Feng family's young master's favorite dishes. It won't be good if they get cold. "
Feng Zirui also felt this was a bit strange. He was a child after all. Even if Xiao Zhou had heard about the matters in the capital, no one would tell him. So he didn't understand. The emperor summoning him to the Imperial Palace wasn't a big deal, nor was it anything new. In the past, whenever he was in the capital, he would go to the Imperial Palace to see the emperor. The emperor was very easy-going and treated him very well. He would also call Xuan Feiyu to the Imperial Palace. One old and two young often played together and were very happy. But why was it that when someone came to summon him to the Imperial Palace, there was a layer of worry on his sister's face? This wasn't right!
The little youth frowned. He was very curious, but he also knew that he shouldn't ask this question in front of so many people. He only reached out and gently pulled on Feng Yu Heng's sleeve, quietly calling her: "Sister."
Feng Yu Heng came back to her senses, but there wasn't any complicated expression on her face. She only said to Wu Ying: "Eunuch is right. It's just that my younger brother has just returned to the capital and is travel-worn. I'm afraid that entering the capital like this will be a breach of etiquette. Please allow consort I to bring him back to the manor to change clothes! "
"Aiyo!" Wu Ying directly shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, wang fei. This servant really can't make the decision. The emperor is anxious and specifically ordered this servant to go to the Imperial Palace to welcome the Feng family's young master. As soon as I see him, I have to bring him into the Imperial Palace. You also know that the emperor is impatient. If it's too late, this servant isn't afraid of waiting or being punished, but if the emperor gets angry, his body won't be able to take it. This servant asks for wang fei's understanding. "
This was her being considerate of the emperor! Feng Yu Heng coldly snorted in her heart. Eighth Brother's actions were really fast. Zirui's journey back to the capital was safe and sound, but she didn't think that he would make such a scene as soon as he entered the capital. She knew that she couldn't stop Zirui from entering the Imperial Palace today, so she no longer spoke to Wu Ying. She only turned to Zirui and said: "The emperor's health hasn't been good recently. After you enter the Imperial Palace, you have to know etiquette. You can't be as noisy as before. When you see the nobles in the Imperial Palace, you have to take the initiative to salute and greet them. No matter what you see or hear in the Imperial Palace, don't be surprised. Don't ask anything, don't say anything, and you can't ask anyone. Just properly accompany the emperor. Don't be afraid. Jiejie will go see you. "
Zirui nodded. There was a trace of confusion on his face, but it was more of doubt. Listening to his jiejie's meaning, there seemed to be something that happened in the Imperial Palace that he didn't know about. It was something that would even make him afraid. But he didn't understand. What could have happened in the Imperial Palace that could make him afraid?
"Go! Don't think too much. " Feng Yu Heng pushed Zirui. Then she watched as Zirui got into a small sedan chair under Wu Ying's urging and hurried towards the Imperial Palace.
The Miao Clan felt very uncomfortable. She had heard about what happened in the Imperial Palace after Wang Chuan picked them up, but she didn't tell Zirui. She thought that Zirui was still a child and this kind of thing was an adult's business. It had nothing to do with a child. Anyway, he would have to go back to Xiao Zhou after the New Year. But she didn't expect that the people in the Imperial Palace would act so quickly.
She worriedly whispered to Feng Yu Heng: "What should we do? Will Zirui be in danger in the Imperial Palace? Why do I feel that … I feel that this child won't be able to come out after he goes in? "The Miao Clan's voice was so cold that Huang Quan shivered.
"It can't be that serious, right?" Huang Quan also glanced at Feng Yu Heng, "How about … we let His Highness go with him?"
Feng Yu Heng shook her head with a bitter smile, "Do you think that Xuan Tianming will be able to do anything in the Imperial Palace now? I'm afraid that he won't even be able to enter Zhao He Hall. " As she spoke, she looked at Miao shi and comforted her: "Third aunty, don't worry. We will definitely think of a way to protect Zi Rui. I only have this one younger brother. I definitely won't allow him to suffer the slightest bit of harm."
Feng Yu Heng's group sent the Miao Clan back to the Yao manor. Because the girl named Ying Cao had been with the Miao Clan for a long time and was more familiar with them, she also stayed in the Yao manor. Feng Yu Heng did not stay for long. She could not let go of Zirui's matter. After leaving the Yao manor, she thought for a bit and simply ordered the driver to go to the Yuan Palace.
The reason why she went to the Yuan Palace was to discuss with the Second Prince to see if he could think of a way to let Xuan Feiyu into the Imperial Palace. At the very least, he could look after Zirui a bit.
When she arrived, the Second Prince, Xuan Tianling, had just come out of the Imperial Palace. Seeing her arrive, he took the initiative to say to her: "Younger sister came at the right time. When I just came out of the Imperial Palace, I saw Lu Ying bring the Feng family's young master into the Imperial Palace. What is going on? Does Ninth Brother know? " As he spoke, he explained: "Ninth Brother and Seventh Brother left quickly and probably did not meet. I was delayed in the Imperial Palace for a while, which was why I bumped into them. When did that child come back? How can you let him into the Imperial Palace at a time like this? "
The Second Prince spoke to her while inviting her into the main hall. At this time, Princess Yuan also arrived. Seeing Feng Yu Heng, she warmly pulled her to sit down. When the servants served tea, Feng Yu Heng helplessly said: "Father Emperor sent someone to summon him into the Imperial Palace. Even if I am extremely unhappy, I have no way of stopping him! I will not hide it from Second Brother. Zirui just returned to the capital today. I originally went to the city gates to pick him up, but before I could say a few words, the eunuch from the Imperial Palace came to pick him up. I came to the Yuan Palace to ask Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law for a favor. "She turned to Princess Yuan and said with a pleading expression:" Second Sister-in-law, can you let Feiyu into the Imperial Palace? I am afraid that something will happen to Zirui if there is no one to take care of him in the Imperial Palace. No matter what, Feiyu is Father Emperor's grandson. The people in the Imperial Palace would not dare to offend the Imperial Grandson. "
Princess Yuan heard her say this and quickly said to the Second Prince: "Your Highness, is there a way to send Feiyu into the Imperial Palace? I am also worried about that child Zirui. The two children are currently studying at the same academy and are playing very well! In the academy, Zirui has taken care of our Feiyu quite a bit. With the current situation in the Imperial Palace, it is really worrying for Zirui to enter the Imperial Palace alone. "
The Second Prince was also worried. Otherwise, he would not have brought this up as soon as he saw Feng Yu Heng. But to have him send Xuan Feiyu into the Imperial Palace, he was also powerless. He helplessly said to Feng Yu Heng: "Younger Sister-in-law, it's not that I am unwilling to part with the child. You also said that Feiyu is the Imperial Grandson. No matter what happens in the Imperial Palace, there will be someone to protect him. Moreover, I am a prince who does not fight for power. Eighth Brother and Consort Yuanshu would not need to scheme against me. But the Imperial Palace is currently under lockdown. Even if I wanted to send Feiyu into the Imperial Palace, I would not be able to! Not to mention Feiyu, even us princes, once morning court is dismissed, we would not be able to enter the Imperial Palace. "
He was speaking the truth. Feng Yu Heng also understood. She had come to the Yuan Palace for help because she had no other choice. But when she arrived, she found that it was useless. Xuan Feiyu could not enter the Imperial Palace at all.
However, the Second Prince did not disappoint her too much. He said to Feng Yu Heng: "Younger Sister-in-law, don't be too anxious. Feiyu may not be able to enter the Imperial Palace, but there is still his biological grandmother in the Imperial Palace! I will think of a way to send a message to Tianfu Palace and think of a way to have Imperial Mother take care of him in the Imperial Palace. "
The Second Prince's Imperial Mother was Imperial Concubine Shi De. She lived in Tianfu Palace and was a bit old. Like the Second Prince, she did not have much ambition. However, she was from the same generation as Imperial Concubine Gu Xian and the others. She still had some status in the Imperial Palace.
Hearing him say this, Feng Yu Heng felt grateful. She quickly got up and was about to bow when the Second Prince stopped her. They chatted for a while before Feng Yu Heng did not stay any longer. She hurriedly returned to the Imperial Palace Yu.
Zirui entering the Imperial Palace gave her a sense of danger that she had never felt before …
