In the past, Feng Jin Yuan only felt that this daughter was very different from when she left the manor three years ago. Not to mention her cold temperament, but she also carried a bit of fierceness. He knew that she knew martial arts and knew that her medical skills had improved, but he had never felt as much fear towards this daughter as he did now.
He subconsciously leaned back, wanting to put some distance between himself and Feng Yu Heng's face, but even after leaning back in his chair, the fear and pressure that Feng Yu Heng gave him did not decrease in the slightest.
"Heng Cheng." The matriarch saw that something was off and wanted to say a few words of advice, but Feng Yu Heng's cold expression caused her to break out in a cold sweat. She only called out once, but she did not know what else to say.
For a while, the atmosphere in the hall was very strange. The matriarch and Feng Yu Heng were both scared stiff by Feng Yu Heng. Neither said a single word, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that the two were trembling slightly, while Feng Jin Yuan's eyebrows were twitching.
"Father." Finally, Feng Yu Heng spoke once more, "You have been the prime minister for many years, yet you do not know what to say and what not to say. He didn't know which words he should say in front of whom, and which words he should not say in front of whom. Your daughter really doesn't understand how such a slow-witted person could become the Left Prime Minister. "
"You …" Feng Jin Yuan was both ashamed and angry. He was a standard first rank official. Aside from the Emperor and the princes, when had there ever been anyone that dared to scold him like this? Now, however, he had been scolded by his daughter. How could he afford to lose this sort of face? "Evil creature!" He glared at Feng Yu Heng, trembling. His face was pale, but his eyes were bulging with anger.
But how could Feng Yu Heng be frightened by him. She could endure this father being shameless. She could still remember to give him some dignity as an elder. But him scolding Xuan Tianming, this was something that she could not endure!
"If a daughter is an evil creature like this, then what is a father scolding your future son-in-law?" You do not act like a father, so don't ask me to act like a daughter.
"I am your father!" Feng Yu Heng felt that this daughter had never viewed him as a father. Even if he had mistreated the mother and daughter three years ago, now that Yao shi and the other two had returned to the manor, as a member of the younger generation, Feng Yu Heng should feel grateful. Why did she have such a strong desire for revenge?
"That's right, you are the father." Feng Yu Heng leaned forward a little more, leaving Feng Jin Yuan with no place to hide. "But Father, don't forget that you are a citizen of Dashun and an official of His Majesty. As a subject, insulting the son of the ruler is a serious crime that will result in the extermination of the entire family. Father, do you want the entire Feng family to kneel on the guillotine with you? "
Her every word was forceful, leaving Feng Jin Yuan with nothing to refute. The matriarch's face turned pale with fear.
Granny Zhao, who was standing at the side, was so scared that her heart almost stopped beating. She thought to herself, 'This Second Miss is too strange, too strange!'
Seeing that the matriarch was on the verge of losing her breath, granny Zhao had no other choice. She could only grit her teeth and break the deadlock: "Elder madam, you must take care of your body!"
Feng Yu Heng heard this clearly and raised the corner of her lips. Fiercely glaring at Feng Jin Yuan, her gaze was filled with warning.
But she very quickly straightened her body and removed the hostility from her face. When she turned to the matriarch, her face was filled with concern "Grandmother, what happened to you?"
The matriarch was momentarily dazed, as she felt that everything she had just seen was not real. Feng Yu Heng did not become fierce towards Feng Jin Yuan. She was still the obedient granddaughter that was very considerate of her and knew how to treat her illness.
Granny Zhao continued to help the matriarch breathe. Seeing Feng Yu Heng rush over, she took the initiative to say: "Second Young Miss, quickly come and take a look. Elder madam seems to be unable to breathe." When she spoke with Feng Yu Heng, she did not even dare look at her. Her hair felt numb, as she feared that Feng Yu Heng would bring out her earlier gaze.
But fortunately, Feng Yu Heng was already a completely different person from before. Now, the one standing here was just a granddaughter that was concerned about her grandmother's health.
She saw her reach out and pat the back of the matriarch's neck. Who knew where she had patted, but the matriarch's breath that she had been unable to breathe was immediately released.
"Grandmother, you absolutely must take care of your body. Even if father makes you angry, you must endure!" These words pushed the matriarch's anger onto Feng Jin Yuan.
What could the matriarch say. Her heart trembled a few times, as she unwillingly went along with Feng Yu Heng's words and nodded.
No matter what was said, the words that Feng Jin Yuan had said before were indeed beneath his status as the prime minister. If the relationship between father and daughter was disregarded, then the words that Feng Yu Heng had said were not wrong.
"Jin Yuan, you must be careful with what you say." The matriarch bit the bullet and said this. Seeing Feng Jin Yuan slightly nod, she finally calmed down a little. She then looked at Feng Yu Heng and saw that her face was still filled with concern, so she gathered her courage and said: "Don't get angry with your father. He did not sleep for an entire night and was worried about you two sisters."
Feng Yu Heng smiled, "That's right! Father loves his daughter dearly. Seeing this, Heng Heng was very moved. I just don't know if eldest sister wore red clothes and went to be a maidservant for Qing Le. Did you think that it would implicate father and the Feng manor. " Her words did not contain a trace of emotion. This was the cold indifference that she displayed in front of others. Forcefully, it caused those that heard it to feel a chill in their hearts.
The matriarch feared that Feng Yu Heng would become angry with Feng Jin Yuan's words, so she quickly tried to smooth things over: "Your eldest sister was also anxious because she could not enter the palace. This is all because of that Shen Clan. Even in death, they did not provide her children with the slightest bit of virtue."
Feng Jin Yuan subconsciously nodded. His gaze did not look at Feng Yu Heng, as he followed the matriarch's words and said: "Our entire family has been implicated by that vile woman!"
A trace of contempt appeared in Feng Yu Heng's eyes. Everyone kicks a man who is down. This was the Feng family.
At this time, a servant quickly entered the yard. Bowing to the three, she then said: "Elder madam, master, eldest young miss has returned to the manor!"
Hearing this, Feng Jin Yuan immediately stood up, "Chen Yu has returned to the manor?"
The matriarch also asked: "How is it. Did she get hurt?"
The servant replied very quickly: "Eldest young miss was helped in by a servant. It seems that there is an injury on her leg. She has already returned to her own courtyard to rest."
Feng Jin Yuan quickly said: "Send someone to call a doctor!" As he spoke, he walked out, "I will go over and take a look."
Seeing him quickly leave, the matriarch could no longer sit still. Standing up from her seat, she looked at Feng Yu Heng and said in a negotiating tone: "Should we also go over and take a look?"
Feng Yu Heng nodded and took the initiative to help the matriarch, "If grandmother wants to go, granddaughter will naturally accompany. But grandmother absolutely must not get angry with father. It would not be good to harm your body. "
Hearing Feng Yu Heng speak, the matriarch felt her scalp go numb. She had clearly been frightened by her, so how did it become her being angered by her own son? This granddaughter of hers could lie with a straight face. She had finally learned a thing or two.
Feng Chen Yu's return to the manor alarmed everyone in the manor. The concubine mothers and young misses that had been going to Shu Ya courtyard to pay respects to the matriarch all turned around and headed towards Chen Yu's courtyard. Everyone knew that with Chen Yu's return, the master and matriarch would definitely personally visit her.
The matriarch was the slowest to walk. When Feng Yu Heng and granny Zhao helped her into Chen Yu's room, Yao shi, An shi, Han shi, Jin Zhen and Xiang Rong had already arrived.
Yao shi had dark circles under her eyes. It was clear that she had not slept the entire night. Feng Yu Heng knew that she was worried about her and quickly gave her a comforting smile. Only then did Yao shi let out a sigh of relief.
At this time, Chen Yu was lying in bed. Her face was haggard, and she was sobbing.
Feng Jin Yuan stood at the side of the bed. Scolding her was not right, but doting on her was not right. Pacing back and forth, he did not know what he should say.
He had placed a great deal of hope in this daughter. He had clearly laid out her path for her to walk, but who knew that she would fail to live up to expectations and actually do this sort of thing.
Previously, she could not enter the palace because she was part of the Shen Clan, so it could not be blamed on Chen Yu. But the matter of the banquet yesterday, Chen Yu had caused too much trouble.
Feng Yu Heng saw that nobody spoke and could not help but gently cough a couple times. Filled with confusion, she said: "Yesterday, it was inconvenient to ask too much at the banquet. Now that eldest sister has returned to the manor, younger sister is curious and wants to ask. Eldest sister dressed like this to enter the palace, what exactly are your intentions?"
Everyone felt that Chen Yu's red clothes were too eye-catching. Now that Feng Yu Heng had asked, they followed her words and looked over in confusion.
Because of her relationship with Fen Dai, Han shi always had a great deal of resentment in her heart. Her personality was no longer as charming as before. Now, no matter which daughter she looked at in the manor, she felt that they had ruined Fen Dai's future. She hated that she could not tear apart all of the daughters of the first wife and concubines. It would be best if Fen Dai became the only child in the manor.
Feng Yu Heng's words and Chen Yu's red clothes had successfully provoked her most sensitive nerves. Han shi suddenly began to giggle, but it was no longer as charming as before. Instead, it was a little gloomy: "Eldest young miss has lost her mother. She truly is overjoyed!"
An shi furrowed her brow fiercely and turned to look at Han shi. After a while, she quietly said to Yao shi: "This woman has most likely gone crazy."
The matriarch also thought this. As Chen Yu's cries became louder and louder, she slammed her cane on the ground and pointed at Han shi, loudly saying: "Servants! Send this crazy woman back to her courtyard! "
Han shi did not defend herself. She only continued to giggle, which caused Feng Jin Yuan's hair to stand on end.
It had been too long since he had gone to Han shi's courtyard. Ever since Fen Dai left the manor, he always felt that he owed Han shi, so he did his best to avoid her; however, he did not think that Han shi would become like this.
"Chen Yu." Han shi's laughter gradually faded away. Only then did the matriarch speak, "Although concubine mother Han's words are not pleasant to hear, they are reasonable. Sneaking into the palace is excusable, but this red dress … "
"Who exactly is it worn for?" The matriarch did not wait for her to finish speaking, as Feng Yu Heng rushed to speak. With just a few words, she pointed out the crux of the matter: Chen Yu wearing this was for one person to see.
Feng Jin Yuan was not stupid. Long before he had returned to the manor, he had already analyzed Chen Yu's actions.
The seventh prince, Xuan Tianhua, had a refined personality and very rarely interacted with officials. He also vaguely remembered hearing people say that the seventh prince liked the color red. Thinking about it like this, it was not hard to explain why Chen Yu wore a red dress.
But Chen Yu had not met the seventh prince for many days. Even if she had a secret crush on him, she did not have the opportunity to find out too much about his preferences in such a short period of time. Then, someone must have deliberately told Chen Yu about this, thus causing her to wear this dress and enter the palace.
He suddenly turned his gaze towards Feng Yu Heng. Before he could speak, he heard Feng Yu Heng meet his gaze and say: "The Dashun court values filial piety above all else. Eldest sister has committed such a great taboo. How should father punish her? Oh, that's right, Big Sister also stole the Seven-Colored Wonder Stone that Father was supposed to present to Her Majesty the Empress and almost killed Father. I really don't know how Father offended Big Sister. If he doesn't untie the knot in his heart, his biological father and daughter will become enemies! "
