Jin Zhen's exposé had piqued Feng Yu Heng's interest. She had already stood up to bid farewell and enter the palace. After all, there was still a patient worth five million taels of gold in the palace. Who knew that Jin Zhen would suddenly say such a thing, causing her to sit back down after she had already lifted her butt.
Feng Chen Yu was a little anxious and loudly said: "Cease making false accusations!"
The matriarch, however, waved her hand and stopped Chen Yu from speaking. She then said to Jin Zhen: "Speak!"
Jin Zhen was a little out of breath and appeared to be very nervous. She deliberately moved closer to Feng Jin Yuan, hoping to find some comfort. Seeing Feng Jin Yuan give her a reassuring look, she finally said: "The day after elder sister Han's incident, this concubine passed by eldest young miss' courtyard in my spare time and personally saw her personal servant burying something in the courtyard. That thing was in the form of a powder. It should be the thing that second young miss said caused elder sister Han to be poisoned — wood ear powder. "
"What?" The matriarch was extremely shocked. It had to be said that an earring did not mean much, but the appearance of wood ear powder was very indicative. Moreover … "You are saying that eldest young miss' servant was burying wood ear powder in the courtyard?"
Jin Zhen nodded, "Yes. This concubine saw it clearly. It was wood ear powder. "As she spoke, she pointed at Xing 'er, who was standing behind Chen Yu:" It was her that was burying it! "
Xing 'er immediately panicked, as her legs gave out and she knelt down. While shaking her head, she said: "No, this servant did not bury anything! This servant did not bury anything! "
Chen Yu was also a little flustered, but she did not deny it like Xing 'er. Instead, she pointed at Xing' er and said: "You servant, if you buried it, you buried it. Why do you need to lie?" She then stood up and said to the matriarch: "Granddaughter did have servants bury wood ear powder, but I did not use it to harm anyone. It was all because granddaughter heard that wood ear powder could reduce weight that I sent someone to buy it to eat. That day, concubine mother Han was poisoned by wood ear powder. Granddaughter was also afraid, so I buried it. "
Her explanation was reasonable, but this was too much of a coincidence. Not to mention Fen Dai not believing it, even the matriarch and Feng Jin Yuan did not believe it.
The matriarch pointed at Chen Yu while trembling and said with disappointment: "I have given you time and time again, but you have disappointed me time and time again. Feng Chen Yu, how could my Feng family give birth to a daughter like you?"
Kang Yi hurriedly went forward to pat the old madam's back. "Mother, calm down. Be careful of your body."
"Will I be able to rest?" The matriarch was so angry that she was trembling. "With such a vicious person in the house, I won't be able to live a single day in peace. Jin Yuan! " She looked at Feng Jin Yuan and said: "Feng Chen Yu intended to harm the Feng family's children. What do you say about this matter?"
Feng Jin Yuan was also extremely disappointed in Chen Yu. Even if Chen Yu repeatedly explained that she really did not do it, based on his understanding of Chen Yu's past actions, this time, Feng Jin Yuan believed her.
"Father, you should clean house!" Fen Dai suddenly screamed and pointed at Chen Yu, saying: "Murderers, even if they died ten thousand times, their deaths would not be regretted!"
"Shut your mouth!" Feng Jin Yuan sternly scolded. No matter what was said, when comparing Chen Yu to Fen Dai, his heart still leaned toward the former. "Father has made his own decisions. It is not up to you to speak."
Fen Dai lost her temper from what was said, as she angrily glared at Feng Chen Yu. She had hoped that her father would punish her severely, but after waiting for a long time, she heard Kang Yi say: "This matter is very important. It must be investigated carefully. Eldest young miss has been crying injustice. It must not be that she has truly been wronged."
Feng Jin Yuan also felt that if Chen Yu truly did it, she should not have admitted to having something like wood ear powder. Thus he thought a little then said: "Send eldest young miss to the temple. Before this matter has been investigated thoroughly, nobody is permitted to let her out."
Feng Chen Yu glanced at Kang Yi. She knew that this mother was helping her. Fortunately, the person opposing her today was Jin Zhen. She trusted that Kang Yi would definitely not have any problems dealing with Jin Zhen. So long as it was not Feng Yu Heng, she truly did not fear anyone else in this manor.
Seeing Chen Yu being taken away, Feng Yu Heng stood up and said to the matriarch: "Heng Heng still needs to go into the palace to treat Princess Ru Jia's injuries, so I will not remain any longer. I will return tomorrow to pay respects to grandmother."
Upon hearing that Ru Jia's injuries would be treated, the matriarch could not help but ask: "Is Ru Jia's injury very serious?"
Feng Yu Heng glanced at Kang Yi and saw that she also had a very anxious expression, thus she smiled and said: "Either way, five million taels of gold and ten snow lotuses will be enough. Mother, do not worry. With Heng Heng here, there will definitely be no problems with Princess Ru Jia's life. Hah. "As she spoke, she gently sighed and turned to say to Cheng Jun Man:" Everything about the Feng family is good. It's just that we have never met a head wife that can properly discipline our children. I originally thought that eldest princess Kang Yi would improve after entering the manor; however, who knew that she would raise Princess Ru Jia to this state. "
Cheng Jun Man quickly added: "It's because of this that aunty had us sisters enter the manor. County princess, please do not worry. In the future, this concubine will definitely be strict with the manor's young misses. The rules that I learned from the palace will also be passed on. I will not allow the young misses to be lacking in etiquette in front of outsiders. "
These words were equivalent to taking away Kang Yi's right to teach the children, but nobody in the Feng family said anything. After all, when the Cheng shi sisters entered the manor, the reason was that Kang Yi had not properly disciplined Ru Jia. Now, the matriarch also felt that if the Cheng shi sisters were to teach the manor's children, it would be quite good. They had come from the palace, so their etiquette and rules would definitely be thorough. With this sort of person teaching the children, no matter what situation they were in, they would be able to handle it.
Thus she immediately nodded: "Good, for you to be able to bear the heavy responsibility of teaching the young misses the rules and etiquette, it will relieve me of the burden on my heart." While saying this, she looked at Xiang Rong and Fen Dai: "In the future, you must properly learn from the two concubine mothers. The rules taught in the palace are the most outstanding."
Xiang Rong had always been very obedient. Whenever the matriarch gave her an order, she would comply. She was well-behaved and did not make a single mistake.
As for Fen Dai, her attitude toward the Cheng shi sisters was much better than her attitude toward Kang Yi. It was for no other reason than the fact that they had come from the palace. She thought that if she could get along a little better with the two, it would be most convenient for her to ask for information. The fifth prince had not appeared for many days, and her heart was in a mess. Every day, she would send people outside to ask if the Li Palace had taken in a new person. Fortunately, none of the servants reported back. Only then did she feel a little more at ease.
Seeing Fen Dai salute and agree, the matriarch nodded. Feng Yu Heng also smiled and said to Cheng Jun Man: "Since that's the case, I will trouble concubine mother." She patted the back of Cheng Jun Man's hand then left with Huang Quan.
Feng Jin Yuan was a little embarrassed. In the end, he was still a father. This daughter did not even greet him when she came or left. Truly … He looked at Cheng Jun Man and told her: "Second young miss' rules should be established. Don't worry too much."
Cheng Jun Man nodded; however, she said: "Aunty always praises county princess Ji An for her knowledge and etiquette. Even uncle praises county princess for being obedient and sensible. Thinking about it, Jun Man's rules are not up to county princess. I will need to ask county princess to help Jun Man check things out!"
Feng Jin Yuan trembled and wanted to say, how could she check things out. If she was obedient and sensible, there would not be anyone in this world that was not sensible.
But just as he opened his mouth, the matriarch dryly coughed and gave him a stern look. Only then did Feng Jin Yuan react. The aunty and uncles that Cheng Jun Man was talking about were the Emperor and the Empress! Was he so bored that he wanted to refute the Emperor and the Empress?
Thus he dryly smiled and nodded. It could be considered a response.
On the other side, Feng Yu Heng had already brought Huang Quan into the imperial carriage and was heading toward the imperial palace. Huang Quan propped up his chin and asked her: "Young miss, how are you so certain that eldest princess Kang Yi was wearing that jade bracelet when she got married?"
Feng Yu Heng spread her hands and said: "I guessed it."
Huang Quan facepalmed, "Your guesses are really accurate!"
"That's true." She shamelessly nodded, "I also feel that I'm quite amazing."
"Tsk!" A mocking sound came from the air.
Feng Yu Heng lost it and tugged at Huang Quan, saying: "In a while, when we leave the palace, let's go to the Imperial Palace Yu. I want to fire Ban Zou. I don't want him anymore. Either way, our manor has so many hidden guards. Who is not stronger than him? "
The sound of teeth grinding came from the air once more: "There really isn't anyone stronger than me. If you don't believe me, why don't you try?"
Huang Quan had already become accustomed to this sort of master and servant bickering. She definitely did not believe that Feng Yu Heng would really fire Ban Zou, and she definitely did not believe that Ban Zou would truly be disrespectful to Feng Yu Heng.
On the contrary, Feng Yu Heng treated Ban Zou the same as she treated them. They were both especially good. She never treated them as servants. Instead, she treated them as brothers and sisters. As for Ban Zou, he was only used to hiding in the shadows. Suddenly following Feng Yu Heng, this … uh, this unreliable master, it might have been that the liveliness in his body had been stirred up. That was why he would occasionally bicker. However, once they encountered danger, Huang Quan knew that Ban Zou would definitely risk his life to protect Feng Yu Heng's safety.
She and Wang Chuan were the same!
Seeing Ru Jia again today, her spirit was a bit better than yesterday. Perhaps it was because the room had been cleaned up by the servants and incense had been added. The smell was much fresher and seemed to be full of vitality.
However, when Ru Jia saw Feng Yu Heng, she did not say anything. She only used a pair of eyes filled with resentment to glare at her. It was as if that glare could vent the anger in her heart.
Feng Yu Heng was too lazy to pay attention to her. She minded her own business and began to treat her wounds.
Ru Jia glared for close to an hour before finally being unable to hold it in. She was the first to break, but she used a warning tone to say to Feng Yu Heng: "Five million taels of gold. You have to treat me carefully. You have to be worthy of the consultation fee."
Feng Yu Heng said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely treat you well so that I can draw blood again next time."
"You — —" Ru Jia habitually wanted to curse her eight generations of ancestors, but when she remembered that her body was covered in wounds because of her impulsive cursing, she quickly shut her mouth and turned her head away. She did not want to look at Feng Yu Heng again.
Feng Yu Heng's treatment took four hours. When it finally finished, Ru Jia was already about to die from the pain. Hearing that Feng Yu Heng would come again tomorrow, she suddenly wanted to give up on this treatment. It was too painful. Ru Jia began to wonder if she could endure it. She had already spent the gold. If she died in the treatment process in the end, wouldn't she be too wronged?
But Feng Yu Heng did not have the mind to pay attention to her. When the work was finished, she packed her things and left. She would not tell Ru Jia that she did not give her any anesthetic. She had to bear the consequences of her own actions. Only by remembering the pain could she remember not to do it again. Although she did not believe that Ru Jia could really change … …
Coming out of the Central Palace, Feng Yu Heng asked someone to point her in the direction of Qing 'an Palace. She brought Huang Quan with her and headed in that direction. Huang Quan did not enter the palace with them last time. Right now, she did not understand why they suddenly had to go to Qing 'an Palace. Just as she was about to ask, she saw a palace maid hurriedly run over.
