Zhang Yuan knew that Tianwu was worried about this, but he didn't dare to say it with certainty. He could only vaguely say: "Who knows."
Tianwu couldn't take it anymore — — "What are you saying? If you don't know anything, then what do I need you for? "
Zhang Yuan felt wronged, "The Emperor's will can't be recklessly assumed, the Imperial Concubine's will also can't be recklessly assumed! If this servant says something wrong and the Emperor wrings this servant's ear off, then this servant won't be able to hear anything in the future. How can this servant serve the Emperor! "
Tianwu angrily chased him out: "Go, go, go. Stay outside, you're so annoying."
Zhang Yuan slipped out of the room. Who would have thought that as soon as he left the main hall, he would see a palace maid carrying a box of food walking over. He thought that it was another Imperial Concubine that came to deliver food to the Emperor, so he wanted to go over and warn her not to deliver it. With the Emperor's current temper, anyone who dared to provoke him would die.
But when he took two steps forward, he felt that something wasn't right. That palace maid wasn't heading towards the main hall at all. Instead, she was heading straight for Feng Yu Heng.
Zhang Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He stopped and carefully looked at that palace maid. He felt that she looked familiar. It wasn't until that palace maid brought out the snacks and tea from the box and placed them in front of Feng Yu Heng that he suddenly realized — — she's here!
He didn't have time to look as he turned around and ran back.
Tianwu saw him hastily running back with a look of pleasant surprise on his face. He couldn't help but feel shocked. He anxiously asked: "Is there some movement over there?"
Zhang Yuan ran over and nodded, "The Emperor is here! That person sent a palace maid to deliver snacks and tea to the county princess. "
Tianwu was very happy. He quickly ordered Zhang Yuan: "You watch from a distance. Let that girl eat first. When she's done eating, then chase her away."
Zhang Yuan asked him: "Then how long will the county princess have to kneel?"
Tianwu said: "Naturally, she has to kneel until she personally comes!"
Zhang Yuan was speechless. He wanted to ask, 'What if they don't come?' You'll tire the county princess out again!
But Tianwu also had a temper. Once he decided on something, no one could change his mind. Zhang Yuan saw that he no longer spoke and went back to reading the memorials. He shook his head helplessly and left the hall.
At this time, the palace maid who delivered the things to Feng Yu Heng said to her: "Isn't it just injuring a prince? It's not like he killed him. The Emperor really has nothing better to do by punishing you."
Feng Jin Yuan could no longer bear to continue listening and said: "Impudent palace servant, who gave you the courage to speak of his Majesty like this?"
The palace maid did not fear Feng Jin Yuan in the slightest, calmly saying: "Consort Yun. Just now, Consort Yun had personally said those words. This servant was only following Her Highness's instructions to relay it to County Princess. If Prime Minister Feng is not used to hearing it, you can choose not to listen. Or you can go to His Majesty to complain about Her Highness, but this servant must remind Lord Feng that this sort of cursing might be something that His Majesty really likes to hear. "
Feng Yu Heng picked up a cup of tea and placed it in front of Feng Jin Yuan: "Father, do you want to take a sip?"
Feng Yu Heng turned his head away, not wanting to pay any attention to her. Feng Yu Heng did not ask any further, as she continued to drink the tea and eat the pastries. While eating, she looked at Zhang Yuan, who was standing at the entrance of Heavenly Hall.
The palace maid said: "County princess, just relax and eat. Her Highness said that fighting in the afternoon already used up a lot of energy. Coming to the palace at night to kneel, how could it be fine without eating. These pastries are just for you to fill your stomach. In a while, the kitchen will make more delicious food for you. "
Feng Jin Yuan began to sweat from hearing this. Consort Yun, in this world, there was only one Consort Yun that dared to do such a thing.
But Feng Yu Heng refused any further goodwill, only saying to the palace maid: "Help me thank imperial concubine mother for her good intentions. I just need to eat some pastries. There's no need for anything else. At the very least, I need to leave some face for father Emperor."
The palace maid nodded, "Alright, then this servant will go tell Her Highness in a while."
Feng Yu Heng smiled and looked at the last pastry on the plate, saying: "There's no need for a while. Someone will be coming to chase you away right now."
Just as she said this, she saw Zhang Yuan rush over with an unhappy expression: "What are you doing? This is Heavenly Hall! Kneeling here is equivalent to admitting guilt. Who has ever seen a sinner eat? Quickly go back, quickly go back! "
The palace maid was completely unafraid of Zhang Yuan's shouting, as she unhurriedly tidied up the food box. She then watched Feng Yu Heng eat the last pastry and asked: "County princess, is it delicious?"
Feng Yu Heng nodded.
"It's good that it's delicious." The palace maid deliberately raised her voice and said: "These are pastries that were personally made by our Consort Yun. Originally, there was a plate here that was going to be sent to the Emperor, but eunuch Zhang was in such a rush, and Lord Prime minister Feng did not want to see me, so this servant can only go back." After saying this, she picked up the food box and left.
Zhang Yuan was startled. There was still something for the Emperor? Consort Yun personally made it?
This time, it was his turn to break out in a cold sweat.
It was over. Consort Yun rarely made food for the Emperor, yet she was sent away like this? If the Emperor found out about this, would he break his legs?
Feng Yu Heng comforted him: "Eunuch Zhang, there is no need to feel sorry for father Emperor. Although it is rare for imperial concubine mother to personally make pastries, and it is even rarer for father Emperor to bring some, father Emperor's mood is not good today. Chasing away that girl is truly helpless. This is not eunuch Zhang's fault. Eunuch Zhang, do not worry."
Huh?
Zhang Yuan's eyes lit up. Why was it that the more he heard, the more it sounded like something that the Ninth Prince would say? County princess Ji An was helping him get away with his crime?
Feng Jin Yuan was dazed, "When did I chase away that girl? It was clearly eunuch Zhang … "
"Father!" Feng Yu Heng's eyes became fierce, "As the court's prime minister, whether or not you have the ability to help father Emperor govern the country is not something to be said. Whether or not you are a man that dares to take responsibility for his actions is also not something to be said, but at the very least, your ears should be good, right? Just now, when that palace maid left, did she not say that lord Prime minister Feng did not want to see her? Did you not hear it? "
Feng Jin Yuan was so angry that his liver began to hurt, "But she also said that eunuch Zhang was in a hurry!"
"Did she say it?" Feng Yu Heng looked at Feng Jin Yuan then looked at Zhang Yuan, "Who heard it?"
Zhang Yuan shook his head, "Either way, I did not hear it."
Feng Yu Heng pointed at herself, "I also did not hear it. Could it be that father was the only one that heard it? Then this does not count. "
Feng Jin Yuan knew that she was doing it on purpose! When had this girl ever been reasonable? She had always been one to lie with her eyes wide open. It was as though she and the Ninth Prince were competing. One could make up more lies than the other, and one could make up more outrageous lies than the other.
But he was afraid! It was fine if Feng Yu Heng made up something else, but the lie she made up now was actually related to Consort Yun! His mind immediately flashed back to the matter between head imperial concubine Bu and Lord Bu at the palace banquet. The scene of the Emperor lifting head imperial concubine Bu and fiercely throwing her at Lord Bu was still vivid in his mind. One died, and one was heavily injured. Even today, when he thought of the blood on the ground, his heart trembled. Feng Jin Yuan felt that if this matter could not be resolved, the next person to die would very likely be him.
Perhaps for other matters, Emperor Tian Wu could still be considered a rational ruler. No matter how biased he was, he would not go too far. But once the matter involved Consort Yun, it was on a different level. The originally rational Emperor could immediately become hostile. What ruler, what minister, what husband and wife, what father and son, as long as they provoked Consort Yun, even the Heavenly Emperor would not be able to do anything. How much ability did he, Feng Jin Yuan, have to be able to survive under Consort Yun's pressure?
Feng Yu Heng looked at the sweat on the forehead of the person at her side, and the smile on her lips deepened, "Father also knows to be afraid? Daughter thought that father would not fear anything after currying favor with the third prince. "
The more she said, the more afraid Feng Yu Heng became. But at the same time, the thought that he absolutely had to get rid of Feng Yu Heng became more and more profound in his mind.
Zhang Yuan did not remain there for long. Turning around, he returned to Heavenly Hall. Inside the hall, Tian Wu held the memorial in his hand and continued to look through it.
Zhang Yuan walked forward and glanced at the memorial, helplessly saying: "Your Majesty, she has already left. There's no need for you to continue pretending."
Tian Wu angrily snorted, "What have We been pretending for? Zhang Yuan, have you grown tired of living? "
Zhang Yuan pointed at the memorial: "You're still saying that you haven't pretended. When this servant left, you were holding the memorial. When you returned, you were still holding the memorial. There are only two lines on it."
Tian Wu lost his temper and simply threw the memorial on the table, "I won't look at it anymore. Hah! Tell me, what's the situation outside? "
Zhang Yuan recounted what had just happened outside. Of course, the matter of him chasing the girl away was naturally ignored. Either way, county princess Ji 'an had already found an excuse for him. He only needed to repeat it.
Sure enough, once this was said, Tian Wu became furious "Fuck! Has Feng Jin Yuan grown tired of living? "
This shout was made with internal strength, but it was too loud. The father and daughter kneeling outside the hall heard it clearly. Feng Jin Yuan immediately collapsed to the ground, and a cold sweat immediately soaked his back.
Feng Yu Heng asked him in surprise: "What happened to father? Could it be that you've been kneeling for too long? Daughter will ask eunuch Zhang to call an imperial physician for you! "
Feng Jin Yuan was unable to speak. He felt as though he was about to die. The Emperor had become so angry. It would be strange if he could still be kept alive.
Sure enough, immediately following this, a loud shout came from inside the hall "Feng Jin Yuan! This great one will tear your corpse to ten thousand pieces! "
Feng Jin Yuan completely collapsed.
Inside the hall, Zhang Yuan desperately held down Emperor Tian Wu, repeatedly advising him: "Your Majesty, calm down! Didn't you say that by keeping Prime minister Feng alive, there would be many things that could be discovered? Why are you unable to remain calm now? "
Emperor Tian Wu said: "But Pian Pian made desserts for Us!"
"Hah! There will be more opportunities in the future! "
"Is that possible? It's not like you don't know what sort of temper Yun Pian Pian has! After this, how could there be another shop? Feng Jin Yuan, that Feng Jin Yuan, We really would not be able to resolve the hatred in our hearts even if We tore him to pieces! "
Zhang Yuan saw that he could not continue to advise him, thus he decided to bring out a fierce move: "County princess Ji An is already 13 this year! If you cause Prime minister Feng to die, county princess will need to mourn for her father for three years. His Highness the Ninth Prince has already said that he wants the county princess to marry into the family as soon as she reaches the age of adulthood at the age of fifteen. If you drag it on for another two years and annoy His Highness the Ninth Prince, the two of them will deal with you together! "
Needless to say, this move was quite effective. Tian Wu, who had been about to charge out and kill someone, immediately stopped. Looking at Zhang Yuan, he thought about what he had said and revealed a helpless expression: "They really are two debt collectors!"
Zhang Yuan quietly muttered: "Who told you to owe them a debt!"
"What sort of thing are you saying?" Tian Wu became angry once more, "Brat, say it one more time for Us!"
Zhang Yuan said with a bitter expression: "Your Majesty, you misheard. This servant did not say anything. This servant was just cursing Prime minister Feng!"
"Hmph!" He put away his anger and returned to his seat with a flick of his sleeve. "Hah!" Waving to Zhang Yuan, he called him over, "Analyze it for Us. If We had county princess Ji An kneel outside for a night, tell me, would Pian Pian personally come?"
