Yi Lin's words caused Feng Chen Yu to become dazed. Xing 'er supported her from the side, but she immediately noticed that Chen Yu's entire body was trembling.
Who knew where this girl found the courage, as she gritted her teeth and pulled out a hairpin from Chen Yu's hair. She then threw herself at Yi Lin!
Yi Lin was a few steps away from her. When Xing 'er rushed over, she sensed it. Suddenly looking at the sharp hairpin, she immediately understood what Xing' er was trying to do.
Killing people to silence them, this girl really learned quickly!
She wanted to dodge, but Xing 'er was younger and shorter than her. Although her momentum was fierce, it was not impossible to dodge. Yi Lin quickly stood up and wanted to run a few steps, but just as she stood up and before she could take a step, she suddenly felt something hit her calf. This hit came quickly, fiercely, and without any warning. She was caught off guard and fell to the ground.
At this time, Xing 'er's hairpin had already arrived. Following everyone in the Feng manor's screams, the hairpin was fiercely inserted into Yi Zi's neck. Without any deviation, it happened to be in the middle of her throat. Xing 'er also used 120% of her strength. This time, she directly inserted the hairpin into Yi Lin's body, causing her to lose her life.
The members of the Feng family inhaled sharply. Nobody thought that a young girl would actually be so fierce. They could not help but take a few more glances at Xing 'er.
This was also Xing 'er's first time killing someone. Earlier, the situation was critical, so she did not think too much. She only thought that she could not allow Yi Lin to expose Chen Yu. She was Feng Chen Yu's servant. If her master lost power, being a servant would be the most miserable. Only by having Yi Lin shut her mouth could Feng Chen Yu remain calm and worry-free.
But now that she had been killed, she was dazed. Letting go, she fell to the ground and watched Yi Lin slowly die with her eyes wide open. The blood from her neck spilled into the snow. In just a short while, a large patch had been soaked.
"She really is a servant that protects her master." Just as everyone was stunned, Feng Yu Heng suddenly spoke up; however, she said to Xing 'er: "Get up. Look, the blood has dyed your clothes red. Later on, have your master make a new set for you. Big Sister, you have to reward this servant who is so protective of her master. "
Only then did Feng Chen Yu manage to react. Xing 'er had killed Yi Lin and sealed Yi Lin's mouth that was about to expose her. The evidence of Pei' er's death pointed directly at Yi Lin. Now, she could actually completely remove herself from this.
Her heart was filled with joy; however, she still looked at Feng Jin Yuan with tears in her eyes. Her face was filled with grief: "It's all daughter's fault for not being strict with the servants. I just felt that the occasional argument between servants was their own matter. Yi Lin has been at daughter's side for many years. Daughter originally thought that she knew what should be done and what should not be done. She had never thought that the grudge between her and Pei 'er would be so great. Father, please forgive your daughter, okay? Your daughter really knows she was wrong. "She cried as she spoke, and her tears flowed freely down her cheeks.
Feng Jin Yuan was not an idiot. She was clearly trying to silence him. How could he not see it. But now that he had died, it was a little hard for him to continue blaming Chen Yu. He then recalled the Chen family's bucket of ginger, and his heart began to waver once more: "Forget it, it's just two servants. If they died, they died."
Chen Yu finally let out a sigh of relief; however, Feng Fen Dai was completely dazed. She had been waiting for Yi Lin to expose Chen Yu's true colors, but she never thought that such a thing would happen. She coldly looked at Xing 'er and took a few steps forward. Raising her hand, she was about to hit her; however, she heard the matriarch suddenly say: "Young miss, to personally hit a servant, are you not afraid of losing your dignity."
Fen Dai's raised hand stopped in midair. Recently, she had been learning the snow dance from Hong Yun. Not only was Hong Yun a good dancer, but she also had a good heart. From time to time, she would give her some pointers on certain matters. She had heard a lot and thought a lot. Now that the matriarch and Feng Jin Yuan were clearly standing on the same side, if she continued to cause a ruckus, she would not be able to gain any benefits.
Thus she gradually lowered her hand and took a couple deep breaths to adjust her mood. Only then did she turn around and say to the matriarch: "It was granddaughter who lost control. Since this servant has already died, it can be considered as paying for Pei 'er's life. This matter … will be dropped! "
The matriarch nodded and was very satisfied with Fen Dai being so tactful. In that instant just now, she had seen the shift in Feng Jin Yuan's eyes. Although she did not know why, as a mother, she had to maintain the same stance as Feng Jin Yuan. "It's good that you can understand." She comforted Fen Dai, "The servants at your side are gone. At a later time, grandmother will help you pick out a few more. Go back and properly train them. Not long after, they will be of use."
"Yes, Fen Dai will listen to grandmother." Although she was already roaring internally, she still maintained a respectful expression. Feng Fen Dai felt that her endurance had improved.
This farce finally came to an end. The two corpses were neatly picked up by the servants, and the ground was quickly cleaned up. The matriarch pondered a little then said: "Two people have died in this courtyard. It is also unlucky. How about this, Chen Yu will move to Shang Xin courtyard. It just happens to be the end of the year, and the courtyard has just been cleaned. You just need to move your things."
Chen Yu quickly saluted the matriarch and thanked her for her grace.
Feng Jin Yuan glanced at her; however, he said: "After moving over, calm your heart. Do not come out until the end of the year. I heard that you were copying Buddhist scriptures? Un, 100 times is not enough. Add another 100 times! "After saying this, he flicked his sleeve and left with his people.
With Feng Jin Yuan leaving, the others did not remain any longer, as they also left.
Only then did Chen Yu feel completely at ease. To her, copying Buddhist scriptures 100 times could no longer be considered a punishment.
Xing 'er crawled out from the snow and knelt at Feng Chen Yu's feet: "I beg eldest young miss to take this servant in. This servant wants to stay at eldest young miss' side and serve you wholeheartedly. I definitely will not betray my master."
Chen Yu pulled Xing 'er up. At this moment, she felt closer to this servant than she did to her own mother. If it were not for Xing' er, she would have fallen into Yi Lin's hands.
"If you can do this and not betray me, I definitely will not treat you unfairly."
Xing 'er's eyes lit up, as she quickly said: "Xing' er can do it! Thank you eldest young miss for your favor! " She then turned around and said to the servants in the courtyard: "Let's all properly follow eldest young miss. Young miss definitely will not treat everyone unfairly. Let's go, we will help young miss move! "
With this side moving, the banquet naturally could not continue. The matriarch ordered everyone to disperse, leaving Feng Jin Yuan alone.
Feng Jin Yuan knew what the matriarch wanted to ask, so he took the initiative to say: "Son went into the palace today to see his Majesty. After that, I was summoned by her Highness the Empress. Her Highness' words were filled with concern for Chen Yu. She even personally said that she had misunderstood Chen Yu in the past and wanted to apologize to Chen Yu. Although son also felt that this matter was a little odd, since the Empress had spoken, it would not be good for us to not give her face on that day. That's why today's matter can only be suppressed like this. We can slowly investigate it at a later date. "
The matriarch never thought that such a thing would happen. She could not help but take a deep breath. "Her Highness the Empress very rarely makes her own decisions. To say something disrespectful, her entire life revolves around his Majesty. Her words represent his Majesty, and it's very possible that it was his Majesty that allowed her to say it. That's why … Jin Yuan, you did the right thing. When it comes to Chen Yu's matter, we need to consider it carefully. "
After sending off the matriarch, Feng Jin Yuan's gaze became slightly cold, as he solemnly said: "Hidden guard, come out."
A black shadow appeared in a flash: "Master."
"Just now, before Yi Lin died, she stood up and attempted to escape. As I saw it, it did not seem like she fell on her own."
"Master is correct." The hidden guard looked up at Feng Jin Yuan and said: "It was second young miss that personally took action."
"Cheng Heng?"
"Yes." The hidden guard nodded, "The thing that was thrown was a stone."
Feng Jin Yuan furrowed his brow tightly. He was a little unable to understand. Feng Yu Heng was helping Chen Yu? If Yi Lin did not die, would she not have exposed all of Chen Yu's previous shady dealings. Would he not have no choice but to deal with Chen Yu? Chen Yu had repeatedly opposed her and even wanted her and Zirui's lives. Why was it that at this critical juncture, Cheng Heng was helping Chen Yu?
Feng Jin Yuan was not the only one who could not understand this question. Even Huang Quan was puzzled. She asked Feng Yu Heng: "Young miss, why are you helping her?"
Feng Yu Heng coldly snorted and could not help but tighten her grip. Zirui, who was being held by her, let out a "hiss" sound, "Sis, be gentler."
Only then did she realize that she was hurting Zirui. She quickly rubbed his small hand, "I'm sorry. Elder sister will be careful in the future."
"It's fine." Zirui looked at Feng Yu Heng like a little adult, "Sis, could it be that they bullied you while Zirui was not here? Especially eldest sister, right? "
Feng Yu Heng patted his head, "You are a child. Just focus on studying. Don't worry about adult matters."
"You are my elder sister. How are you an adult?" Feng Zirui was unconvinced, "Also, I am not a child. When I was at the academy, even the head teacher would often discuss things with me. Just before we returned, the head teacher said that our maternal family was a prominent family in the capital. Don't look at how they have been demoted to Huang Zhou. Sooner or later, there will come a day when the Emperor will use a sedan to bring maternal grandfather back. "
Feng Yu Heng facepalmed. Why did imperial tutor Ye Rong talk about these things with a child. But she also wanted to hear Zirui's opinion, thus she asked him: "Then what do you think?"
Zirui said: "If the Emperor can really use a sedan to bring maternal grandfather back, then it can only mean two things. First, he has forgiven the Yao family. Second, he has never really blamed the Yao family."
Feng Yu Heng almost clapped her hands in praise. Even Huang Quan exclaimed: "You two are indeed brother and sister." One was seven years old, the other was thirteen years old, but they were both so smart. Couldn't they give other people's children a chance to live?
Seeing her like this, Zirui knew that she must be very satisfied with his answer, so he also smiled: "Master said that Zirui is very smart. Zirui is thinking that whether or not I am smart, I must learn well. In the future, when I become strong, I will protect mother and sister. " As he spoke, he turned his head to Huang Quan and said: "Zirui will also protect sister Huang Quan … Unfortunately, I don't know when sister Wang Chuan will come back."
These words caused the atmosphere to become heavy.
The two sent Zirui back to Yao shi's room. Only then did they return to Feng Yu Heng's courtyard. Just as they entered the courtyard, Feng Yu Heng said: "Earlier, Zirui was present, so I did not say anything. You asked me why I helped Feng Chen Yu, and I will tell you the truth. I do not want to help her. I just feel that letting the Feng family deal with her is letting her off too easily. Feng Jin Yuan always had some sort of pity and consideration for Chen Yu. Even if Yi Lin spoke of the past, it would not necessarily cause Feng Jin Yuan to do anything to her. In the worst case scenario, she would be locked up in a nunnery and released after a period of time. Feng Chen Yu has tried to kill me time and time again. This time, she colluded with the Chen family to take Zirui's life and captured Wang Chuan. How could I forgive her so easily? Don't worry, her retribution will come soon! "
