Hearing that Duan Mu Qing wanted to see Feng Yu Heng, Feng Jin Yuan felt his head hurt. Of all the people he could see, why did he have to see that thorn? Also, whether or not he could see her, as a father, he did not have any say!
He helplessly said to Duan Mu Qing: "Deputy leader should have some understanding of the Feng family's situation. Although she is this prime minister's daughter, in truth, this prime minister really does not have any say in her matters. If you want to see her, this prime minister can send someone to pass on the message, but whether or not she will come is something that cannot be determined. "
After Feng Jin Yuan finished speaking, he sent a servant to invite Feng Yu Heng. The two continued to drink tea and chat. After waiting for a full two hours, just as Feng Jin Yuan thought that Feng Yu Heng would not come and Duan Mu Qing's expression became a little ugly, a servant finally came to report: "Second young miss has arrived."
Feng Jin Yuan's body trembled, as he subconsciously became a little nervous. He really despised this sort of natural reaction. Glancing at Duan Mu Qing, he saw that he was not paying attention to him. Only then did he calm down.
Not long later, Feng Yu Heng slowly walked into the hall. Behind her was the servant, Wang Chuan.
Duan Mu Qing did not stand up. He just slightly raised his chin and squinted his eyes, looking at her with an inquisitive gaze.
Looking again at Feng Yu Heng, she walked straight toward the front of the hall without looking sideways. Arriving before Feng Jin Yuan, she revealed a slight smile and called out: "Father."
Feng Jin Yuan nodded, "Heng Heng, the deputy leader of the three northern provinces, Duan Mu Qing, wants to see you."
Feng Yu Heng did not make a sound, as she walked over to a chair and sat down. She then received a cup of tea from a maidservant and took a sip before asking: "Oh?" Following this, she said: "Then where is he?"
Feng Jin Yuan suddenly wanted to burst into laughter, but Duan Mu Qing's face had truly turned green. In the past, he had heard quite a bit about Feng Yu Heng, especially after news of Xuan Tian Ye being heavily injured reached the North. He had sent people to inquire about this county princess Ji 'an. Unfortunately, seeing once was better than hearing a hundred times. All the rumors could not achieve this kind of intuitive feeling. Duan Mu Qing felt that with Feng Yu Heng sitting there, Feng Jin Yuan's dignified aura as prime minister was immediately suppressed.
But she was just a 13-year-old girl with thin arms and legs. How could she have such a strong aura?
Feng Jin Yuan saw that the atmosphere was truly a little awkward. Based on Feng Yu Heng's personality, if he did not introduce him, perhaps she would continue to pretend that she did not see Duan Mu Qing. He had no choice but to cough lightly and extend his hand to Duan Mu Qing. "This is Vice Domain Chief Duan Mu Qing."
It was only then that Feng Yu Heng looked over, but she looked very attentive. After scrutinizing for a long time, she said, "Oh, Duanmu … What was it again?"
Feng Jin Yuan facepalmed, "Qing, Duan Mu Qing."
She nodded, but didn't say anything. Instead, she cast her gaze over, as if waiting for something.
Duan Mu Qing was the same. His gaze even carried a cold aura that came from the North. The two just looked at each other like this, neither saying a single word.
But Feng Yu Heng was indifferent, while Duan Mu Qing had an air of hostility. With this comparison, it was clear who had won and who had lost.
Feng Jin Yuan felt that he could not allow the situation to continue like this, thus he spoke up once more. This time, he said to Feng Yu Heng: "Heng, Vice Domain Chief is a guest from afar."
Feng Yu Heng still did not speak. Instead, it was Wang Chuan, who was standing behind her, that replied: "Prime minister Feng, no matter how far away he is, he is still Dashun's official. The vice domain chief of the North is a standard fourth rank official. Why is it that he is so lacking in etiquette when meeting a standard second rank county princess? "
At this time, Duan Mu Qing finally made a move; however, he snorted coldly and said to Wang Chuan: "Since your county princess is so particular about etiquette, why is it that the servant at her side is so rude? You have no official rank, so when you see this official, shouldn't you kneel and kowtow? "
How could Wang Chuan fear him, as he immediately said: "As a servant, we all follow our masters. Isn't there someone standing behind the vice domain chief that does not know what is good for him?"
Wang Chuan's words nearly caused Duan Mu Qing to choke to death. The two had met, and they had already lost without any face. He simply changed the topic and no longer brought up the matter of etiquette, "This official wants to see county princess because I have a gift to present." While he spoke, he gestured to the attendant behind him to bring forward a wooden box, "I heard that county princess has great medical abilities. I wonder if this official's gift is satisfactory."
Just as he said this, the attendant opened the wooden box. Everyone's gazes immediately turned toward the box; however, nobody thought that what they saw would be a broken bone. The bone had been broken into three pieces, and there were quite a few fragments. The smallest was not even the size of a fingernail.
Feng Jin Yuan's heart went "thunk," as he looked at Duan Mu Qing with a bit of resentment. This person was the same. If he wanted to propose marriage, then he wanted to propose marriage. What was the point of doing this? Was this not just causing trouble for him for no reason? Also, where did these broken bones come from? Animals? Looking at Feng Yu Heng's reaction, he felt a bit more at ease.
Fortunately, that girl did not have any intention of becoming hostile. As long as she did not become hostile, everything could be discussed.
Feng Yu Heng was a bit mentally prepared for this gift. Although she did not think that it would be bones, the gift that Duan Mu Qing had sent could not be anything good. She curiously looked at the bones for a while, then reached into her sleeve and took out a pair of medical rubber gloves from her space. She put them on carefully and then reached out to the bones.
Only after she held the bones in her hand and carefully examined them did Duan Mu Qing truly have a new level of respect for this girl.
This really was a special girl. When a normal child of the same age saw this sort of thing, even if they did not scream in fear, they would avoid it. They definitely would not get close or even hold it in their hands. Everyone said that doctors were daring. It seemed that this was true.
"The bones are calcified. Due to the sudden external force, they shattered. The broken part happened to be the joint. The entire kneecap was destroyed and cannot be cured." She held up the bones in her hand and slowly spoke as she looked at them. Then she threw the bones into the box and took off the gloves to Wang Chuan: "Burn them when you go back." Then she said to Duan Mu Qing: "These are human bones. Is it the third prince's?" As she spoke, she looked at the bones and began to chuckle, "There are also three large bones. It seems that this county princess was merciful at the time."
The gift did not achieve the desired effect. Duan Mu Qing was already unable to maintain his composure. However, Feng Yu Heng was not done speaking: "I heard that you invited the Ghost Doctor Song Kang to the capital? This county princess has also heard of the Ghost Doctor's medical skills. Now that the bones have been taken out, could it be that he wants to give the third prince a new bone? " While she spoke, she continued to laugh. As she laughed, she suddenly stopped. Staring at Duan Mu Qing, she said one word at a time: "Don't waste your energy. That's impossible. This county princess has already prepared a gift for him. Tomorrow, I will personally deliver it to the Xiang Palace. When the time comes, I will need to ask deputy leader to consider whether this county princess' gift is more practical or whether the new bone that the Ghost Doctor gave him is more practical. "
Duan Mu Qing's face was ashen, as he suddenly stood up. With great reluctance, he said: "Then I will respectfully await your arrival." He then cupped his hands to Feng Jin Yuan and left with a flick of his sleeve.
Feng Jin Yuan saw Duan Mu Qing leave and let out a sigh of relief. He was truly afraid that the two would begin fighting here. Who he helped and who he didn't would be troublesome.
At this time, Feng Yu Heng also turned around to look at Feng Jin Yuan. She was still seated in her chair, and the tea in her hand had been replaced by a servant. When it was brought over, she said with a smile: "I still haven't congratulated father. You've given birth to a new head wife. Within four years, you've changed four head wives. Father, this is the first time this has happened in the Dashun dynasty. I heard that the storytellers in the teahouses are all talking about this strange story! "
These words caused Feng Jin Yuan to lose a great deal of face, but the hatred that he had felt since the assassination attempt by the people of Qian Zhou surged forth once more. He pointed at Feng Yu Heng and gritted his teeth, saying: "It's all because you've done well! Say, exactly how far do you want to harm the Feng family? If it's just getting revenge for those three years, now should be enough, right! "
Once these words came out, Feng Yu Heng immediately became angry. Without even thinking, she threw the cup of tea at Feng Jin Yuan's head. If it was not for him dodging quickly, perhaps his head would have been smashed open.
"What are you doing?"
Feng Yu Heng's eyes became fierce: "I want you to wake up! Don't refuse the face that's given to you. If it wasn't for me, you would have been finished along with Kang Yi and Qian Zhou! I never wanted to harm the Feng family. There are some things that I do not want to talk about, but you insist on bringing them up. Feng Jin Yuan, I must remind you once more. From the Northwest to the capital, you arranged for a driver to kill us. After returning, you treated us harshly and allowed the Chen family to kill us so many times. As a father, if you do this, what right do you have to speak in front of me? Calling you father is nothing more than a form of address. Don't think too highly of yourself. Feng Jin Yuan, I will tell you. Only by keeping your mouth shut and your heart and your actions can you keep the lives of the Feng family safe. I have repeated the same words time and time again, but you just don't learn. This time, I will tell you that if you don't learn, don't blame me for taking the lives of this entire family! "
Feng Jin Yuan's heart trembled, as he suddenly recalled what Feng Yu Heng had said when she had slapped that servant to death in front of Pine courtyard. He could not help but feel shocked.
That's right, why did he not learn. This daughter had already become hostile with him. She was very clear on the things that he had done. Also, it was possible that she even had evidence. He actually dared to act tough in front of her. Had he gone crazy?
While they spoke, Feng Yu Heng had already stood up. It seemed that she was preparing to leave, but right before leaving, she said: "Tomorrow, I will go to the Xiang Palace to return the gift. Prepare Feng Chen Yu's engagement letter. I will bring it over while I'm at it."
Feng Jin Yuan was startled once more and subconsciously wanted to ask how she knew about Duan Mu Qing's engagement letter, but he immediately understood. This Feng manor was no longer something that he could control. Even at his side, Feng Yu Heng's side was definitely filled with spies. The things that this girl wanted to know could not be hidden from her.
"This matter … I will need to think about it a little more." Feng Jin Yuan was not reconciled with being controlled by this daughter, thus he calmly said this.
However, he heard Feng Yu Heng say: "Think about it? That is not up to you. As I see it, this marriage is quite good. It's settled. Someone come! "She suddenly shouted, and a servant immediately ran in from outside the door. "Go prepare the eldest young miss' engagement letter. After it is prepared, send it to the county princess' manor."
The servant was a little dazed and subconsciously looked toward Feng Jin Yuan. Feng Jin Yuan was so angry that his hair nearly stood on end. Pointing at Feng Yu Heng, he loudly said: "Who exactly has the final say in this family?"
Feng Yu Heng turned around and faced him, saying very seriously and directly: "Me."
