Feng Yu Heng stood in the middle of the hall, accepting the kowtows of all the generals. She raised her small chin and looked towards Xuan Tianming with a smile. It was as if she was showing off. And Xuan Tianming was sufficiently cooperative, giving her a thumbs up. Moving his lips silently, he said: "Wife, amazing!"
With this competition, not only did she get rid of the seventh prince's marriage, she also displayed the might of the Dashun Dynasty. Following the three arrows, Feng Yu Heng's image once again rose in everyone's hearts.
After everyone returned to their seats, the new year's banquet officially began.
For a while, toasts were exchanged, drums were played, and dancers in colorful clothes danced. Their long sleeves occasionally brushed past people's faces, bringing with them a unique fragrance.
Feng Yu Heng returned to her seat and saw Xiang Rong looking at her with a red face. This second sister was truly a deity in her eyes. Just now, she was so excited that she jumped up. If there was a day when she could be like her second sister, how great would that be.
She pinched Xiang Rong's small face and said with a smile: "Why are you looking at me like that? You don't recognize me? "
Xiang Rong was honest and really nodded, "I don't really recognize you. Second sister, it has only been three years, yet you already have such accomplishments. Xiang Rong … Xiang Rong … "
She, Xiang Rong, did not say anything for a long time. Feng Yu Heng helplessly said: "There is no need for you to envy others because there are many people who are also envious of you. If possible, I hope to be like you and live peacefully and happily in the inner courtyard of the residence. "
Xiang Rong smiled bitterly, "If I can truly be peaceful and happy, I would not need to envy you."
She did not say anything else. That's right, if she could truly be peaceful and happy, she did not want to be in the wind and rain in this life.
With Feng Yu Heng returning, a group of madams and young misses very quickly gathered around, repeatedly praising her divine prowess. There were even some young misses that desperately squeezed their way to her side. They could not help but introduce themselves. Everyone wanted to have a relationship with Feng Yu Heng. Not to mention, when the Empress was speaking, the Emperor had already started to protect the Ninth Prince. Just the fact that Feng Yu Heng was able to cut off the iron essence to win Dashun's honor and promised to forge a steel weapon for Dashun was already her greatest asset. Not to mention that she still had the Ninth Prince and the Left Prime Minister as her backers, even if she didn't, who in Dashun would dare to touch her now?
Feng Yu Heng knew that being surrounded by people was inevitable, so she didn't reject it. She smiled and chatted with people, not putting on the airs of a county princess at all. Those madams and young ladies who had more or less criticized her in the past gradually changed their views of her. They all raised Feng Yu Heng's good opinion of her to a new height in their hearts.
At this time, three dances had already been performed. Finally, the appearance of Xuan Tian Ge's group caused the madams and young misses that had been surrounding her to disperse. With them dispersing, Feng Yu Heng finally felt that the air was a little fresher. She could not help but take a few deep breaths. She then glared at them with a complaining tone: "Why did you only arrive now?"
Xuan Tian Ge casually sat down next to her and said: "Don't we need to give others a chance! Our Heng Zheng is a famous person. In any case, we should let them get a bit of her divine aura. "
Bai Fu Rong repeatedly nodded: "Right, right." While saying this, she reached out and touched Feng Yu Heng's arm, "I will also get a bit."
She helplessly laughed, "Don't join in on the fun. What divine or not, it's just that I happen to recognize that iron essence, and it just so happens that I can use the skills that I learned from my master."
Ren Xifeng also pulled over a chair to the side and sat down. He then said to Feng Yu Heng seriously: "If you were born a few years earlier and made good weapons for Dashun, my father would not have been left with so many injuries on the battlefield. Heng Zheng, his Highness Prince Yu is also a military general. For you to have this ability, I really am very happy. Not only will this benefit thousands of soldiers, it will also be a permanent barrier for you. "
"That's right!" Fung Tian Yu also said: "I just noticed his Majesty's expression. Right now, his Majesty is even more concerned about you than before. If this matter is done well, you will be the benefactor of all of Dashun. But … … "She leaned forward and lowered her voice, saying:" My father told me to tell you, from today onwards, there will be more danger around you. The reason that Zong Sui wanted to use the iron essence technique to make a political marriage with our Dashun was to divert the trouble to the east. They wanted to divert a portion of the bandits that had gathered in Zong Sui for the past hundred years to Dashun. It's good now, the iron essence is useless, but these bandits will have their sights set on you. You need to be extremely careful when you do things. "
Feng Yu Heng naturally understood this logic, but the matter happened suddenly. Aside from doing this, there was nothing else she could do. Let her watch on as Xuan Tianhua made a political marriage? She could not do it.
"I will definitely be extremely careful." Feng Yu Heng solemnly promised the group, "There is nothing more important than life."
The group nodded. Only then did they giggle and talk about girls' topics. But they did not talk for long before Xiangrong tugged at Feng Yu Heng's sleeve, asking her with some worry: "Eldest Sister and Fourth Sister left for so long and still have not returned. Did something happen?"
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, "I don't know. Moreover, even if something happened, it would be something they asked for. Xiangrong, watch more singing and dancing. Stop thinking about them. "
Xiangrong let out an "oh" sound and turned around to watch the singing and dancing. When she turned around, she saw a person holding a cup of wine walking towards them. It was the Fourth Prince of Zong Sui, Li Kun.
Xuan Tiange rolled her eyes and said: "What is he doing here?"
Ren Xifeng smirked: "Something that his family treasured for a hundred years suddenly turned into scrap metal. I'm afraid that this Fourth Prince will not be able to give an explanation to the ruler when he returns to Zong Sui!"
She was right. At this moment, Li Kun's heart was on the verge of collapse.
The iron essence technique had already become a secret technique that had been passed down for generations in Zong Sui. Only the ruler could grasp it. At first, he wanted to use this thing to establish a relationship with Dashun. Who knew that not only did he not succeed in establishing a relationship, but his national treasure had also been destroyed. What was most depressing was that the person who destroyed his national treasure was a young girl who did not look older than 12 or 13 years old. He feared that even if he returned to Zong Sui and said it, no one would believe him.
Li Kun walked over to Feng Yu Heng with a helpless expression. Holding the cup of wine with both hands, he saluted her: "County princess Ji 'an."
Feng Yu Heng stood up and returned the salute: "Your Highness the Fourth Prince."
"I don't dare, I don't dare." Li Kun repeatedly waved his hand, "This lowly prince does not dare accept county princess' salute."
Feng Yu Heng looked at him with a smile, "That's also good. Let's set things aside. Earlier, testing the weapon was for the sake of the country. Now, Your Highness is able to chat with Xiangrong Heng because of personal matters. Since it is a personal matter, then there is no need to stand on ceremony. Your Highness, please sit. "
Li Kun did not think that the valiant girl that had just tested the weapon in the hall would turn into a beautiful and generous little girl in just a blink of an eye. He originally thought that he would be disliked, and he had even prepared himself to be ridiculed by her; however, Feng Yu Heng said that matters should be dealt with separately, and she began to discuss personal matters with him.
In that moment, Li Kun was indescribably moved and did not know what to do. He actually raised his head and drank all the wine in his cup in one gulp.
Feng Yu Heng looked at him like this and knew that this Zong Sui prince could be considered a person who was emotional. Even though he was a little arrogant at the start because of the iron essence technique in his hands, but after that iron essence was destroyed by her, other than the initial shock and later disappointment, he did not show much emotion. He did not even feel the hatred that other people would have. This caused Feng Yu Heng to think more highly of him and was also the reason why she was willing to invite Li Kun to sit.
Li Kun downed a cup of wine and felt that if a young girl could interact with him so openly and without avoiding suspicion, what was there for him to be unable to let go of. So he smiled brightly and lifted his robe to sit in the seat that Xiang Rong gave up.
"Many thanks county princess."
"Your Highness does not need to be so courteous." A palace servant at his side refilled Li Kun's cup and heard Feng Yu Heng say: "Heng Heng is young and will inevitably be a little rash when doing things. Just now, I did not give Your Highness face and hope that Your Highness can forgive me."
"Hah!" Li Kun waved his hand, "A loss is a loss. I, Li Kun, am not the type of person to haggle over gains and losses. Moreover, for a weapon smelting material that is even more powerful than my Zong Sui's iron essence to appear in this world, it can be considered as helping my Zong Sui resolve a problem. Not to hide it from county princess, in the past hundred years, for the sake of obtaining the method of producing iron essence, all sorts of spies and experts have been sent into Zong Sui's borders almost every year. My Zong Sui's rulers change frequently and it is also because three generations of rulers were kidnapped and assassinated within 40 years. Now that county princess has the method of producing steel in your hands, this lowly prince must remind county princess to be extremely careful when doing things. "
"Thank you Your Highness for your concern." Feng Yu Heng nodded and smiled. She could see that Li Kun still had something to say and was a little hesitant, so she took the initiative to ask him: "Your Highness is worried that my method of producing steel will be leaked?"
Li Kun nodded a little embarrassedly, "County princess is intelligent and is very correct. Because of the iron essence technique, there are many small countries that have tried to steal it many times but were unable to obtain anything. From then on, Zong Sui bore a grudge against them. Now that iron essence is no longer the best material, this lowly prince is truly afraid that the method of producing steel will be grasped by other countries and they will take revenge on my Zong Sui. "
"Your Highness, do not worry." Feng Yu Heng put away her smile and said seriously: "Zong Sui was able to keep the secret of iron essence for a hundred years. Where would my Dashun find the reason to pass the method of producing steel to other countries? And Zong Sui is my Dashun's vassal, as long as you do not have any thoughts of betrayal, my Dashun will naturally not stretch out a hand to snatch it from Zong Sui. This is also what Father Emperor promised Your Highness just now. "
When Li Kun heard this, he could not help but sigh in relief. He was truly afraid that the method of producing steel would be leaked and was also truly afraid that Dashun would turn hostile! He did not dare to ask Emperor Tianwu about this and could only ask the person who possessed the method of producing steel, Feng Yu Heng.
But from the moment Feng Yu Heng spoke, he caught a detail. Hearing her mention Emperor Tianwu at this time, he could not help but ask: "This lowly prince heard county princess call His Majesty Father Emperor? But shouldn't the Emperor's daughter be a princess? "
Feng Yu Heng was speechless. This prince, did you not do your homework properly before coming to Dashun?
But this also showed that Zong Sui was extremely loyal to Dashun. At least, they did not plant spies in Dashun. The information they received was only up to the new year last year.
She opened her mouth to explain, "I am not of the imperial family's bloodline and am the daughter of the first wife of the Left Prime Minister's manor in Dashun. But I was engaged to the Ninth Prince when I was young. Thanks to Father Emperor's love, I was able to call him Elder like this."
"Ah … …" Li Kun was stunned and could not hide the disappointment on his face.
Xuan Tiange let out a "pft" and laughed from the side, "Hey! I say, you, have you taken a fancy to our Cheng Heng? That won't do, she is my Ninth Brother's future wife. If you dare to have any improper thoughts, be careful that my Ninth Brother will whip you. "
While Xuan Tiange was joking, Feng Yu Heng had already turned her gaze towards the stage and saw that Zhang Yuan had just returned from outside the hall and was whispering something into Emperor Tianwu's ear … …
