Xuan Tian Ye sat down in the empty chair next to Feng Yu Heng. All of the young misses at the table saw him come over and silently lowered their heads. Nobody wanted to take the initiative to provoke him. Even Fen Dai did not dare look at Xuan Tian Ye.
Xuan Tian Ye was different from the other princes. It was as though this person was born with anger. Just looking at him would cause people to feel a chill.
Feng Yu Heng did not look at him, but it was not because she was afraid. Instead, she felt that she was especially hungry. If she did not grab hold of the delicious food on the table, eating more would be a waste.
Xuan Tian Ye just stared at her like this until she finished eating half of the fish in front of her. He finally could not bear to continue watching. Lowering his voice, he said: "County princess' phoenix hairpin, wasn't it said that it was lost?"
Feng Yu Heng had finished eating the fish, and the servant just happened to bring up some longjing bamboo fungus soup. She took a sip and repeatedly shook her head, "It's not too good to drink." She then put down the spoon and began to speak with Xuan Tian Ye. However, the moment she opened her mouth, she asked, "Who said that I lost my phoenix hairpin?"
Xuan Tian Ye was startled. Only then did he remember that the rumor that county princess Ji An had lost her phoenix hairpin was just a rumor! Rumor had it that she had been confined by the Emperor because of this matter, but that was just a rumor! Who exactly had said that Feng Yu Heng had lost her hairpin? This truly was a debt without a debtor.
His expression became even more gloomy, as the anger on his face increased. This caused the girls at the table to lower their heads even more in fear.
At this time, a servant ran over and stood next to the table, saying: "The new madam has already returned to Tian Xiang courtyard. The elder madam has called for the young misses to go over."
Feng Yu Heng finished drinking the last mouthful of tea and stood up. Glancing at Xuan Tian Ye, she then glanced at the servant at his side. Leaving behind a cold snort, she turned and left.
Xuan Tian Ye was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, but what could he do? He could not hit her or curse her. A grown man getting angry at a young girl would bring trouble to the Emperor, and the one that would suffer would be him. Xuan Tian Ye felt that this Feng Yu Heng was born to infuriate people. Whoever fell into her hands and did not die from anger was truly fortunate!
When the Feng family's daughters walked into Tian Xiang courtyard's master bedroom, the matriarch was already sitting inside talking with Kang Yi. Neither of them brought up Ru Jia's matter again. Kang Yi, who had cried bitterly in the front yard, had put on her makeup again, once again looking dignified and proper.
Seeing the children come in, the old lady waved at them. "Everything happened so suddenly that you didn't get to see your mother properly. Come over and pay your respects to your mother."
Chen Yu took the lead and walked forward, bowing: "Daughter greets mother."
The other three also stepped forward and bowed, "Greetings, Mother."
Kang Yi's smile deepened and she quickly helped everyone up, saying: "Quickly get up. You're all sensible children. In the future, we'll be a family. There's no need to be so formal." After saying this, she looked at Feng Yu Heng and held her hand, saying: "Heng, don't blame Ru Jia. She really has been spoiled rotten by her uncle emperor. As I see it, this is also good. This will allow her to understand sooner that Dashun is not the same as Qian Zhou. Today, she made a mistake at home. Behind closed doors, everything can be discussed, but if she causes trouble in the palace, she will not have such good luck. Mother will apologize to you on Ru Jia's behalf. In the future, if you have any problems, you can come and tell mother. As long as mother can do it, I will definitely support you. "
Kang Yi's words were very beautiful. Even the matriarch could not help but nod upon hearing this. She sighed that this really was the eldest princess of Qian Zhou. Her own daughter had been beaten to such a degree, yet she was able to turn around and smile. This sort of ability was not something that a normal person could achieve.
Feng Yu Heng saw Kang Yi's decent performance and did not bring up the previous matter. Instead, she changed the subject: "With mother saying it like this, I really did remember something."
Kang Yi smiled and said: "Speak."
Feng Yu Heng said: "I have taken a fancy to Liang Xin pavilion, which is not far from Tian Xiang courtyard. I was preparing to find a chance to ask grandmother if I could live in Liang Xin pavilion after the wedding. Since mother has spoken, Cheng Heng will ask mother to support me! "
Previously, Kang Yi was worried that she would make some sort of grand request. Now that she heard that she only wanted a courtyard in the Feng manor, she could not help but let out a sigh of relief, "Alright, mother will agree."
Feng Yu Heng nodded and looked at the matriarch, "Now that mother has come to take care of the family matters, grandmother will be able to relax a little."
The matriarch was very unhappy, but it was not because she felt bad about giving Feng Yu Heng a courtyard. She had originally wanted to prepare a courtyard in the Feng manor for Feng Yu Heng to live in. After all, she was a girl that had not yet married, and she had such a noble status. No matter how one looked at it, the Feng family could not mistreat her.
But this was something that she had done. Now that Kang Yi had given her a favor, wasn't this clearly trying to take away her authority?
Seeing that the matriarch's expression was not good, Kang Yi quickly coaxed her: "Mother, please understand daughter-in-law. Daughter-in-law truly wants to improve my relationship with Cheng Heng. Just treat it as giving daughter-in-law this favor. Daughter-in-law definitely will not forget mother's grace. As for the manor's matters, daughter-in-law is from a foreign country. How could daughter-in-law understand Dashun's customs. I am unable to handle them. "
Hearing her speak like this, the matriarch finally felt a little better. Nodding, she said to Feng Yu Heng: "You are a child of the Feng family. You should have your own courtyard here. Although Willow courtyard is a place in name, that place is a bit too shabby. Liang Xin pavilion is good. It is also a bit higher, and there is a small three-story tower inside. It is best to stand on top and see the scenery. It is suitable for you to live in. "
Liang Xin pavilion did indeed have a three-story tower. This was also the place that Feng Yu Heng liked the most. First, it was better to stand high. Second, she had changed the tower into a pharmacy. It would be more convenient to use.
"But …" The matriarch awkwardly opened her mouth, "Liang Xin pavilion has never had anyone live in it. The cleaning is fine, but the decorations … normally speaking, the manor's young miss' courtyard should be given money by the manor to take care of it, but the manor truly does not have any money!" As she spoke, she glanced around the room, and a trace of anger appeared on her face.
How could Kang Yi not understand that this was a problem that she had caused, thus she quickly said: "Daughter-in-law understands everything that husband has done for daughter-in-law. Would mother please not worry. Husband truly treats Kang Yi well. From this day forward, Kang Yi will definitely think of our Feng family. Daughter-in-law has already sent a letter to imperial brother a few days ago. Thinking about it, Qian Zhou's special envoy should already be on his way. Installing a courtyard for Cheng Heng will naturally be left to daughter-in-law. Mother, please be at ease. There is also Shu Ya courtyard. When the time comes, it will also be added. Mother, think about it over the next few days and see what you want to buy. "
Hearing Kang Yi say this, the matriarch calmed down. Thinking about it, the dowry sent by Qian Zhou for the eldest princess of a country would definitely not be shabby. Kang Yi seemed to be a sensible person. She had brought along her daughter, and the mother and daughter would remain in Dashun. They had no one to rely on. If she wanted to establish herself in Dashun, she would need to establish herself in the Feng family. If she wanted to establish herself in the Feng family, she would need to bribe the matriarch.
A smile appeared on the matriarch's face, as she said to Feng Yu Heng: "Then just do as your mother says. It's no longer early. Let's not sit in this room. Xia Chan "She called for a servant that had been taking care of her," Take good care of the madam. In a while, think of calling the wedding nanny in. The rules that Dashun should follow. "
Xia Chan said: "Yes! Would elder madam please be at ease. This servant will definitely take care of everything here. "
Only then did the matriarch leave the bridal room with satisfaction. Seeing Feng Yu Heng happen to be at her side, she pondered a little then said: "Today, you being able to give her a show of strength is also pretty good. Although her marrying into the manor will be beneficial to your father's career, she still needs to be restrained a little in the manor. She can't be allowed to continue holding on to her status as the princess of a country. After another two years, I fear that the manor will no longer be able to accommodate her."
Feng Yu Heng smiled and said: "Not to mention anything else, but I fear that grandmother will need to hand over the dowry." After she finished speaking, she increased her pace and walked toward the front yard.
The matriarch stopped in her tracks. Upon thinking of the dowry, her heart began to ache. But Feng Yu Heng was correct. With the head wife of the family entering the manor, as the matriarch, it was truly not suitable for her to continue holding on to the dowry.
At this time, the banquet in the front yard was still in full swing. Feng Jin Yuan went to each table to drink, and as he went back and forth, he drank quite a bit. It was the princes that did not want to drink like this. The second prince, fourth prince and fifth prince had already returned. The eldest prince was waiting for the imperial physician to take a look at Ru Jia's injuries. After that, he would bring Ru Jia back. As for the third prince, Xuan Tian Ye, he chose a pavilion that was slightly further away from the banquet and sat down. His guard stood at his side and would occasionally look at Feng Jin Yuan. It seemed that he wanted to wait for Feng Jin Yuan to finish his work before saying something to him.
When Feng Yu Heng returned, she glanced at Xuan Tian Ye from a distance. Thinking a little, she picked up a plate of fruit from the table and walked over to the pavilion.
Xuan Tian Ye watched her walk over, and his right eyebrow twitched uncontrollably a couple times. Every time that he spoke with Feng Yu Heng, he could not gain the upper hand. Now that he saw that girl take the initiative to walk over to him, Xuan Tian Ye could not help but wonder what exactly she wanted to do?
Before he could figure it out, she had already arrived in front of him. With the refined cloud necklace on her body and the phoenix hairpin on her head, coupled with Feng Yu Heng's fierce aura, he felt that her status was even nobler than his own. Dashun did not have a princess. Perhaps even if it did, it would not be enough to suppress this county princess!
"Your Highness the third prince really is in a good mood, running over here to hide and relax." She arrived at the pavilion and said: "Heng Cheng saw that you were sitting here alone and felt lonely, thus she wanted to send a plate of fruit over to quench your Highness' thirst."
She did not walk too close to the front, nor did she personally place the fruit on the table. She just extended her arm and handed it to the guard.
The guard did not think much of it. After all, he was a servant, and this sort of thing was something that he often did. Thus he took a couple steps forward to receive it; however, who knew that before he could even touch the plate, Feng Yu Heng suddenly let go, and the entire plate of fruit fell to the ground.
The fruit rolled all over the place, and the plate was also smashed to pieces. It was just that the pieces were rather concentrated, and they were all placed in the space between the two.
Feng Yu Heng became furious "Impudent servant! This county princess kindly brought fruit to your prince, yet you dare to smash the plate of fruit? What sort of crime is this? "
Her voice was truly frightening. Not to mention how sharp her voice was, it was also filled with anger and hostility. The guard had been with Feng Yu Heng for a long time, and he had developed a certain degree of immunity to other people's gloomy expressions, but for some reason, when he saw Feng Yu Heng's eyes, he could not help but tremble. His mind immediately became a mess, and he did not know what he should do.
Feng Yu Heng added: "You dog, kneel!"
Once these words were said, Huang Quan immediately circled behind that person. Raising her leg, she kicked the back of the person's knee. Just like that, a seven foot tall man was kicked to his knees.
What was most frightening was that the guard happened to be kneeling on the broken porcelain, and a layer of blood immediately appeared around his knees.
Not only that, but in the instant that he knelt, he felt that aside from the broken porcelain, there were also needles on the ground. There were many, many needles, and they all pierced into his knees. The pain nearly caused him to bite off his own tongue.
