Perhaps it was because it was snowing heavily and the sky was dark, but Feng Yu Heng's carriage changed directions. The three carriages behind her did not notice at all. Even the dead carriage driver happened to fall into a pile of snow and was immediately covered by the snow. Even the blood was buried under the snow, leaving virtually no trace on the street.
The carriage that Chen Yu sat in was the one closest to Feng Yu Heng. The driver felt that the second young miss' carriage was going a little too quickly, so he did not dare follow. After all, the roads were slippery, so it was better to be safe.
When Feng Yu Heng's carriage stopped in front of Imperial Palace Yu, the gatekeeper happened to be sweeping the snow in front of the gate.
When the gatekeeper saw the carriage, he was stunned for a moment because Ban Zou was a hidden guard. He basically did not appear in front of others, so the gatekeeper did not recognize him. Just as he was about to go forward and ask who they were, he saw the curtain of the carriage lift. Feng Yu Heng's small head poked out from inside: "I am the Feng family's second young miss."
With just these words, the gatekeeper was given a start and immediately combined the identities of the Feng family's second young miss with the future Royal Consort Yu. He then looked carefully at Feng Yu Heng. Sure enough, it was the same appearance that he had seen in front of Hundred Herb Hall during the snowstorm.
Thus, without saying another word, he immediately had someone open the gates and allowed Ban Zou to drive the carriage into the courtyard.
This was the first time that Feng Yu Heng had come to Imperial Palace Yu; however, she was not in the mood to look around. Upon exiting the carriage, she saw Lady Zhou walking towards her. Upon seeing Feng Yu Heng and Ban Zou's appearance, she knew that something must have happened, so she quickly led them into the inner courtyard.
Just as they entered the inner courtyard, before they could walk around the corridor, they saw Bai Ze pushing Xuan Tianming over.
The two looked at each other, and Feng Yu Heng immediately shook her head, giving him a reassuring look. Only then did he relax slightly; however, he still extended his hand towards Feng Yu Heng.
She jogged over to him and very naturally held his hand. At the same time, she said: "Something happened along the way, but I was not injured." As she spoke, she took over from Bai Ze to push the wheelchair.
"This subordinate will send people to investigate." Bai Ze said this and left. Even Ban Zou and Lady Zhou did not continue to follow the two.
Feng Yu Heng pushed Xuan Tianming back. Under Xuan Tianming's guidance, she went straight to his bedroom.
Xuan Tian Ming's bedroom was extremely large. Just the rooms were separated by four sections, but how could she be in the mood to look around. Upon entering the room, she immediately closed the door and handed over the arrow in her hand: "Look at this arrow. Ban Zou said that it did not look like something from Da Shun, but I could not understand it. "
He held the arrow in his hand and frowned after taking a look: "An item from Zong Sui?"
"Zong Sui?" Feng Yuheng was stunned, "The East?"
. "Yes." Xuan Tianming nodded, saying again: "But Zong Sui's people are not skilled in archery. Even though they have archers, they are only used as backup. There is nothing outstanding about them."
"The power of this arrow is extremely great." She spoke about how the arrow pierced through the wooden carriage and killed the driver. She then added: "When the second arrow was shot, Ban Zou was afraid that there would be another sneak attack. He even deliberately turned the carriage, but it was still shot in."
When Xuan Tianming heard this, he understood, "Then it must be Qian Zhou. To deceive people, they deliberately brought over arrows from Zong Sui. But no matter how they tried to hide it, to shoot an arrow with this method, in the entire world, only the divine archers of Qian Zhou have this ability. "
Feng Yu Heng narrowed her eyes. The divine archers of Qian Zhou had successfully provoked her. She still remembered that in the mountains of the Northwest, Xuan Tianming had been injured by the divine archers of Qian Zhou.
"Who said that they were the only ones with this ability." She snorted coldly, "When I have trained a divine archery team for you, we will compete with the archers of Qian Zhou. Let's see who has more ability."
Xuan Tianming had never doubted Feng Yu Heng's words. Moreover, he had already seen this girl's archery skills. Now, if she said that she also knew archery skills that could turn and follow the target, he would not doubt it in the slightest.
"I heard about what happened at the Yuan Palace." He pulled her to his side and put down the arrow. The topic changed to today's birthday banquet, "Old third's caution really is getting stronger with each passing year. A set of white crystal head ornaments was able to make him think of that imperial concubine from back then. It was us who underestimated the enemy."
Feng Yu Heng reached out to massage his leg. While checking the situation, she spoke to him: "Regardless of whether or not he really saw through it, it is fine. This sort of psychological imprint is not something that can be shown in an instant. If he really is superstitious enough to believe in Feng Chen Yu's legend of the aspect of the phoenix, then this imprint would be called good. The cast still needs a few more days. After roughly seven days, I will help you remove it. After another month of recovery, you will be able to walk. "
She looked at him with relief. For his leg to be able to recover to this degree, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
In truth, she should not have scared those girls in the Yuan Palace, but Xuan Tianming's leg was her sore spot. Whether or not it could be healed to its original state, her heart was beating like a drum. How could she allow others to say such things.
"I am at ease with your medical abilities." Xuan Tianming looked at the girl squatting in front of him and suddenly missed their first meeting in the mountains of the Northwest. At that time, they had met by chance, and whenever they spoke, they would quarrel. Thinking about it now, it was very amusing.
"Even if you are not at ease, there is no other choice." Feng Yu Heng raised her head and looked at him, "If I am unable to heal your leg, there is no one else in the world that can heal it. Xuan Tianming, meeting me, you should be secretly happy! "
He was not secretly happy. He was clearly happy. Just as he was reminiscing about their quarrel, she said this. In an instant, it was as though he had returned to the mountains of the Northwest. The girl in front of him had just finished hitting someone with a pebble and was now quarreling with him.
"Stop laughing." She rolled her eyes, "Has there been any new information from your intelligence network over the past two days?"
Xuan Tianming nodded, "There has been. A portion of old third's soldiers have been withdrawn from the North, but there are not many. It seems that they did not return out of fear of eldest brother Prince. Instead, it seems that they are trying to fool us. The soldiers that have been withdrawn have been gathered in Gan Zhou, which is his private headquarters outside. "
"You mean to say that he does not believe the Emperor's words to his Highness the eldest prince and is already suspecting that it was us that did it?"
"It's possible." Xuan Tianming pondered a little then said: "But his soldiers have stopped at the third city in the North. They have not continued to advance. After a few more days, they should be able to meet up with your father."
"You can just call him Feng Jin Yuan." She did not want to hear "your father" say this sort of thing, "Have you ever thought that if Xuan Tian Ye did not fall for the trick and insisted on gathering the majority of his soldiers in the North and forming a faction with Qian Zhou, once that faction was formed, would he immediately cause trouble?"
Xuan Tianming shook his head, "He wouldn't. If the throne could be obtained openly, nobody would want to use force to resolve it. But we can't allow his soldiers to remain in the North for too long. When the time comes, they will become too close to Qian Zhou. For Dashun, it will become a sore point. Right, "He suddenly said:" Feng Jin Yuan has already entered the disaster area. As I expected, there are indeed people from Qian Zhou that have secretly come into contact with him. But the unexpected thing is that the person that came to find him was a woman. "
"A woman?" Feng Yu Heng was a little surprised by this news. Why would a woman come to find Feng Jin Yuan?
"The spies are still gathering information. Aside from waiting, there is nothing else that we can do. Old third is a cautious person. Even if he has some suspicions about eldest brother, he definitely will not not make any preparations. Let's just wait and see. "He patted her hair then suddenly changed the topic," Do you blame me for dragging you into this struggle for imperial power? "
Feng Yu Heng was stunned for a moment then obediently shook her head, "I don't blame you. Although I don't want to admit it, I am still Feng Jin Yuan's daughter. I was born in the prime minister's manor. Even if the one I met was not you, there would be someone else. Feng Jin Yuan could not possibly marry me to a normal citizen. The daughters of the prime minister's manor, regardless of whether they are of the first wife or of a concubine, they all need to be married to a prince. That's why I cannot escape from this struggle, nor can I hide from it. "
"It's just that you don't like it, right?" He could see the slight irritation in her eyes, "You are only 12 years old. How could you be at an age where you should be living this sort of life. In the end, it's my fault for not being able to give you a stable life."
"I fear that if it was someone else, I would not be living as well as I do now." She smiled. She had a childlike appearance, but it also carried an endless amount of sadness, "If possible, I hope that when I grow up, I can live a stable life without any struggles. But if I am destined to not have that fortune, I will not complain about anyone. You have a storm of blades, and I will accompany you. Xuan Tianming, you are the first person I have ever met. It's like life. If you live, I live. If you die, I will do my best to get revenge for you … "
When Xuan Tianming personally sent Feng Yu Heng back to the county princess' manor, the Feng family's people were holding lanterns and gathered in front of the door. An shi and Yao shi repeatedly asked the servants that were running around: "Is there any news of second young miss?"
The servants all shook their heads then immediately went out to search.
Xiang Rong was so anxious that she began to cry. While wiping away her tears, she said: "It's all my fault. If I had sat in the same carriage as second sister, things would not have ended up like this."
Yao shi was feeling anxious, but she still comforted the child: "Even if you sat in the same carriage, the result would be that both of you were lost. Don't cry. Let's wait a little longer. Who knows, she might be able to return very quickly. "
Chen Yu also wore a cloak and waited at the entrance of the county princess' manor. What surprised everyone was that she was even more anxious and concerned about Feng Yu Heng's safety than Yao shi. Not only did she send out all of her servants, she herself would occasionally run around to search.
At this time, they heard Huang Quan's voice come from the other side of the street "Second young miss has returned!"
With these words, everyone let out a sigh of relief, especially when they saw the carriage with the insignia of the Imperial Palace Yu heading in their direction, Yao shi felt even more at ease.
Feng Yu Heng returned to the manor late at night and caused a small interlude. Everyone believed her explanation and thought that she had run into his Highness Prince Yu along the way, thus they followed him to the Imperial Palace Yu to sit for a while.
However, they did not know that Feng Yu Heng had sent Ban Zou out of the manor late that night to bring back the body of the dead carriage driver. She then gave him money and ordered him to be properly buried. The amount of money was enough for the family to insist that he had died from an illness, but that arrow caused Feng Yu Heng to have nightmares for an entire night.
When she woke up the next day, Huang Quan was sitting next to her bed, using a handkerchief to wipe her forehead.
She felt waves of headache, and her body was a little cold. Feng Yu Heng immediately realized that she had most likely fallen ill.
"Young miss caught a cold yesterday. When this servant came in the morning, I found that you were sweating nonstop." Huang Quan switched to a new handkerchief and continued to wipe, "I've been wiping for an entire morning, but it won't dry no matter what."
She forced herself to sit up and kicked away the layers of blankets on her body, "How can I not sweat like this?" She was completely speechless. She finally understood why the elderly would say that they needed to wipe their sweat when a child had a fever. It turned out that this was a saying that had been passed down since ancient times. "Go and change to a cold handkerchief. Don't use a hot one."
Huang Quan objected: "You were already sick. How can you still use a cold handkerchief?"
Feng Yu Heng was helpless, "It's because I'm feverish that you need to cool me down and not warm me up. Go, listen to me. I'm a doctor. "
Huang Quan thought that this was right. Her young miss was a divine doctor. How could she not be able to treat such a small illness, thus she quickly ran out to change the handkerchief.
But she very quickly ran back and said to Feng Yu Heng with a look of schadenfreude: "His Highness the fifth prince really did send someone to propose marriage to fourth young miss."
