At this time, Emperor Tianwu was holding the four-month-old puppy and playing with it. When he heard this news, his hand trembled, and the puppy fell to the ground. It let out a very dissatisfied cry then walked off into the distance.
The old prince spread out his ten fingers and raised them in front of him. After looking at them for a long time, he finally opened his mouth and said, "My ten fingers are all connected to my heart!" After saying this, he asked Zhang Yuan, "Do you think that the older I get, the softer my heart becomes? The Eighth Brother harmed Us like that, but now that We have heard that he has died, Our heart is still feeling uncomfortable. "
Zhang Yuan sat down cross-legged across from him and sincerely said: "This is not called soft-hearted. This is human nature. It's as you said. All ten fingers are connected to the heart! In the end, that is your son that was born of your blood. How could you not feel distressed. You don't leave the palace much and don't know what it's like outside. This servant will tell you about it. The poor citizens outside, no matter how poor they are, even if they only have a single bite to eat, they will leave that food for their own children. Even if they starve or freeze to death, they will let their children live first. This world is like this. I have heard of children and grandchildren that are not filial to their parents, but I have never heard of parents and grandparents that do not take care of their children and grandchildren. Thinking about it like this, the matter with the Eighth Prince can be resolved. "
"It's not completely as you say." Emperor Tianwu refuted him, "Look at Feng Jin Yuan in the past. He hated that he could not strangle Heng Zheng to death. Isn't that just a father that does not take care of his children and grandchildren!"
"But I heard that in the final days, he also came to a realization." Zhang Yuan had heard about Feng Jin Yuan's final days in the South and immediately told Emperor Tianwu about it. The two also felt a bit emotional.
Emperor Tianwu said: "In truth, there are times when you think about it. Even if Feng Jin Yuan's heart was filled with hatred, it was for the sake of protecting the Feng family. Just like when We were young, there was no need for much. As long as we could go back ten years and let this matter happen ten years ago, We could sweep away all obstacles for Ming. Even if it was children and grandchildren, for Ming, for Pian Pian and for the Dashun country, We would be willing. But during these two years, what exactly happened to Us? "
"This is the kinship of blood." Zhang Yuan analyzed for him, "This means that Your Majesty has feelings and is not cold-blooded. This also means that Consort Yun and His Ninth Highness are people that can see the bigger picture. Otherwise, based on Consort Yun's favor, if she did not choose to live alone in Winter Moon Palace and instead wanted to compete with the other imperial concubines in the inner palace, perhaps she would already be sitting in the position of Empress. But she did not do anything to the other imperial concubines. His Ninth Highness's personality was a bit strange when he was young, but he was only at odds with the third prince and the Eighth Prince. He still treats others quite well. "
Emperor Tianwu nodded. Praising his beloved woman and son was something that he liked to hear. But after hearing it, he could not help but ask: "Is Pian Pian still in the capital?"
Zhang Yuan said: "She's still living in the Chun Palace! Yesterday, His Highness the seventh prince mentioned it to this servant. His Highness the seventh prince said that if Your Majesty were to ask about this matter, to answer truthfully. Also, Your Majesty should not worry. Her Highness is doing well in the Chun Palace. "
Emperor Tianwu was stunned, "Why hasn't she left? Didn't we let her leave? She wanted to escape so badly in the past. Now that she's free, why hasn't she left? "
Zhang Yuan asked in return: "Where do you want Her Highness to go?"
"Go … …" The old emperor was at a loss for words. That's right! Where could she go? The village had been destroyed long ago. She had been locked up in the palace for more than twenty years. Outside the palace, other than his two sons' residences, where could Yun Pian Pian's home be? Even if she was free, where could she go?
Thinking of this, the old emperor's nose turned sour. He blamed himself: "It's all our fault, it's all our fault! It was our fault twenty years ago, and now it's still our fault! We hid our identity and lied to her. After she entered the palace, we did everything we could to not let her leave. Little Yuan Zhi, tell me, is this Emperor's entire life a mistake? In the end, we couldn't protect our beloved son and let down the woman we love the most. If we continue to live like this, what's the point? "
Hearing that the old emperor had thoughts of not being able to live, Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes and said: "Royal Consort Yu once said that death is the most cowardly thing to do. To say something offensive, you closed your eyes and opened your legs without caring about anything, but what about the people who are still alive? You don't think of a way to make up for it while you're alive, but instead you only want to use death to free yourself. Isn't that too selfish? "
Emperor Tianwu was stunned for a moment, then he muttered: "Heng Heng said that? En, only that girl could say something like that! Old Ninth is really lucky. Forget it, since you said that, then we'll live. Living will be atonement for our sins. In any case, no one is feeling good, so we'll feel bad together with her. "After saying this, he sighed again," Pian Pian doesn't have a home, but when did we ever have a home? This Imperial Palace can only be considered a place to stay, how can it be considered a home. The meaning of a home is for husband and wife to be harmonious, with children surrounding each other. Unfortunately, in the Imperial Palace, there will never be such days. "
In the Imperial Palace Yu, Feng Yu Heng was currently sitting in her own courtyard, playing with Xiao Bao. That child had been shocked during the days he was imprisoned by Zong Sui's people, but his physical condition was still considered good. He ate and drank as he should and did not suffer much actual harm. But now that he had returned, he was a little unhappy. Just as Feng Yu Heng gave him a lollipop to eat, he asked Feng Yu Heng in a childish voice: "Where's my older sister? When can Xiao Bao return to Older Sister's side? "
Without waiting for Feng Yu Heng to speak, Huang Quan who was at the side could not help but blurt out: "Your older sister treated you so badly, why do you insist on returning to her side?" The current Xiao Bao was not as dark as when he was young, and he had also grown up quite a bit. He was fair and chubby and was very cute. Compared to the past, he was like a completely different person. Even Huang Quan who originally did not like him found him more pleasing to the eye, and would occasionally tease him.
Xiao Bao raised his head to look at Huang Quan, his little mouth pouting: "How do you know that Older Sister did not treat me well?"
"Of course I know!" Huang Quan squatted down, pinching Xiao Bao's cheeks and asking: "Does she hit you often? And scold you? I have heard about all these, that older sister of yours does not even dote on you as much as the Fifth Prince. You were lost for so many days, and the only person who kept looking for you outside was the Fifth Prince. That older sister of yours did not do anything at all! "
When Xiao Bao heard this, he was unhappy and actually stretched out his arms, pushing Huang Quan forcefully. Of course, he could not push Huang Quan. Not only did he not push Huang Quan, he even staggered back two small steps, then he sat down on the ground with a plop and started crying: "Wu! Wu! You are a bad person, you are not allowed to speak of Older Sister like this, Xiao Bao likes Older Sister, even if Xiao Bao is beaten, Xiao Bao wants to be with Older Sister. Wu wu! "
Feng Yu Heng was helpless and quickly went forward to help the child up and hold him in her arms. Xiao Bao was a bit close to Feng Yu Heng, hugging her neck and unwilling to let go, but he kept saying: "Help me find Older Sister! Xiao Bao wants to find Older Sister! "
Feng Yu Heng coaxed him while scolding Huang Quan: "What are you saying these things to a child for? What does he understand? "
Huang Quan said with a smile: "Isn't this servant also worried that this child will be spoiled by Feng Fendai! Based on Feng Fendai's personality, if this child continues to grow up by her side, who knows what he will become in the future, he might even become another Feng Zihao! "
"Then that is this child's fate!" Feng Yu Heng said, "If he really can become like Feng Zihao, it means that he has the Feng family's genes in his bones, it will be the same no matter who raises him." As she said this, she looked at Xiao Bao in her arms. After looking for a while, she could not help but frown, asking Huang Quan: "Don't you feel that this child looks much better than when he was young? Not only is his skin fairer, even his facial features have changed. "
Huang Quan nodded, "Of course! This servant originally wanted to tell Young Miss, could it be that Feng Fendai swapped the child? Is this still the Xiao Bao of the past? "
"She didn't swap him." Feng Yu Heng said: "No matter how much he changes, he is still the same, I won't make a mistake. Everyone says that children change every day, at that time, his biological father's skin was a bit darker, but if we were to talk about facial features, he really did look quite good. Otherwise, how could he be able to sing operas? Have you ever seen an ugly opera singer? "
"That's true." Huang Quan said: "With Young Miss saying this, This Servant also recalled. That opera singer was handsome, it was just that his skin was a bit darker, after removing the paint, it made people unwilling to look at him for too long. This child's current appearance is becoming better and better, and he has taken after that opera singer. As for his whiteness, he should have taken after Han shi, right? "
"It's possible." Feng Yu Heng handed Xiao Bao over to the granny in the courtyard to be carried to sleep then ordered: "In a moment, Wang Chuan, bring some pastries over. Let Xiao Bao eat some first before coaxing him to sleep, otherwise, he will wake up very quickly from hunger." Seeing the granny carry Xiao Bao away, she then said to Huang Quan: "Go to the front yard and take a look! If my guess is correct, Feng Fendai will be coming over soon to ask for him. "
"Handing him over to her so easily?" Huang Quan was a little unhappy, "She is the main culprit that harmed the Third Young Miss!"
"Otherwise?" Feng Yu Heng asked back: "Forcing the child to stay? Then we will raise him? " She shook her head as she spoke, "You also saw how close Xiao Bao is to Feng Fendai. Even if Feng Fendai hits him, he still wants to follow his older sister. This is the kinship of blood, it cannot be severed. Go! If she comes, just welcome her in. As for Xiangrong's matter, the debt that should be settled has already been settled with Yu Qianyin. As for Feng Fendai, there is nothing to say. "
Feng Yu Heng's predictions were very accurate. Not long after Huang Quan left, Feng Fendai arrived. Bringing her into the small courtyard, Huang Quan stood behind Feng Yu Heng with a cold expression, glaring at Feng Fendai for a long time before going to brew tea at Feng Yu Heng's signal. However, the tea that was brewed was hot and cold, the cold bowl was naturally for Feng Fendai, and she very impolitely placed it on the table, expressing her dissatisfaction.
But Feng Fendai did not think much of it, she was already used to Feng Yu Heng's attitude, not to mention that she had already mentally prepared herself before coming. She repeatedly reminded herself that she came to bring Xiao Bao back, not to quarrel and cause trouble. So she calmly smiled at Feng Yu Heng, calling out: "Second Sister."
Feng Yu Heng did not have any expression on her face, hearing this call, she only said: "I do not dare." Then she took the initiative to ask: "I wonder why Fourth Young Miss Feng has come to Imperial Palace Yu?"
The unfamiliarity in her words caused Feng Fendai to be a little stunned, but she immediately understood, she was drawing a clear line with her! She did not deserve to be Royal Consort Yu's younger sister, in this Second Sister's eyes, there had always been only one younger sister, and that was Feng Xiangrong, not her.
Feng Fendai laughed at herself, then changed her words: "Royal Consort Yu, this humble girl has been rude."
