Xuan Tianming's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. He took two steps forward and reached out to grab her.
Feng Yu Heng stared blankly for a moment before she casually said, "Thank you, young master."
The corner of his mouth twitched, "Is there something wrong with your legs or your brain?"
Feng Yu Heng gritted her teeth and said, "It could be that my eyesight isn't good, or it could be my mouth." She grabbed Xuan Tianming and glared at Bai Ze.
Bai Ze didn't know what he did wrong. He was holding an umbrella for his master, so why did his master's wife suddenly turn hostile?
Seeing that he was still standing there in a daze, Feng Yu Heng angrily squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth, "Take that umbrella away!"
Xuan Tianming didn't understand, "Wife, the weather is hot."
She didn't want to talk to these two people anymore. Why were they pretending to be deities by the lake in broad daylight? Her imagination was already running wild. Couldn't they have a proper meal? Couldn't they … Hey?
A certain person who was always slow on the uptake finally realized that something was wrong. Why were all the carriages by the lake stopped? Why weren't they moving? Also, that auntie buying eggs, why are you drooling? That young lady across the street, are you throwing flirtatious glances or rolling your eyes? Her eyeballs were about to fly out! That girl over there, why did she have a face full of anticipation and tears?
Feng Yu Heng followed everyone's gaze and finally stopped at her fiancé's face. Then she became angry, "Your face is covered by the mask, so I can't tell if you're a man or a woman. Why are you still so eye-catching?"
She couldn't take it anymore. She shook off Xuan Tianming and walked towards the ferry by the lake. Xuan Tianming pushed away Bai Ze who was holding the umbrella, "Hurry up and throw this broken umbrella away!" Then he started to chase after Feng Yu Heng, "Hey, wife! Wife, slow down. Listen to I … "
From then on, with the Refined Deity Building as the center, a rumor about the Ninth Prince being afraid of his wife spread throughout the capital. It was said that many young ladies from noble families had formed the "Ninth Prince's Fan Club" and the "Anti-County Princess Ji 'an Alliance". However, after considering the Ninth Prince's nature of protecting his wife and County Princess Ji' an's nature of not recognizing anyone but her husband, they decided to give up the organization that they had painstakingly built and turned to silently support their idol.
Of course, this was a story for the future. Right now, Feng Yu Heng was sitting in a private room in the Refined Deity Building, struggling with a big pork shoulder.
Xuan Tianming sat in front of her and sipped his tea, but the hand holding the teacup trembled a little. Outside, Bai Ze's voice rang out again, "That crispy fried squab pigeon, fry it faster."
Xuan Tianming watched the girl in front of him use pork shoulder soup to mix with rice. He angrily slapped the table: "Dammit! I already said that you didn't eat enough in the Feng manor. Every time I go to the Feng manor, I feel like you've gotten skinnier. Look at yourself now, haven't you eaten a full meal since coming home? "
Feng Yu Heng finally raised her head from the pork shoulder and replied: "In reality, I've always eaten at Tong Sheng pavilion."
"Then Tong Sheng pavilion will change the chef!" He thought for a bit, then called Bai Ze in and ordered: "Bring a chef from the Refined Deity Building to Tong Sheng pavilion to cook for your princess."
Bai Ze nodded and went out to give the order.
Feng Yu Heng originally wanted to say that there was no need to go through so much trouble, but when she thought about the taste of the pork shoulder, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. Refusing the Refined Deity Building's chef was the same as not being able to live with her mouth! She shoveled two more mouthfuls of rice into her mouth and her life was complete.
Xuan Tianming really couldn't bear to see her mouth covered in oil. He picked up a handkerchief that he carried with him to wipe her mouth, then reminded her: "Eat slower. We're not in a rush. If you eat slower, you'll be able to eat more." After saying this, he found that she completely ignored him and began to fight with the crispy fried squab pigeon that had just been brought up. He glared at the waiter who had left with a frightened expression and had to say: "The way you eat, in the eyes of an outsider, they would think that you're pregnant."
Feng Yu Heng did not even raise her head, "If I'm pregnant, then I'm pregnant."
What else could he say? He anxiously watched this girl eat for over two hours before finally finishing off the entire table of delicacies. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief and carefully asked: "Do you want to order a few more dishes?"
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, "No need." Then she asked: "When we leave in a bit, can the chef come with us?"
He nodded.
"Then it's settled. I'll go back and eat slowly tonight."
Xuan Tianming broke down, "Wife, tell me, what's going on?"
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, "Nothing. When I saw you attract so many bees and butterflies, I turned my anger into appetite."
"Aiya!" Xuan Tian Ming rejoiced, "It's a good thing that we got to know each other later. Otherwise, when this prince was not wearing a mask, you would have eaten this Refined Deity Building until it went bankrupt."
Feng Yu Heng rolled her eyes at him, "Tch, I'm the only one with bad taste to fall for you. The person from before didn't even care about you."
Xuan Tianming narrowed his eyes, the purple lotus between his brows turning a few times. He caught the key phrase: "The person from before?"
Feng Yu Heng was drinking tea to help with her food and almost choked to death. "What I mean is, before I went to the Northwest, I liked the current me, so I felt that the person from before wasn't me."
He was just teasing her and had no intention of delving deeper. He was the dignified Ninth Prince's wife. How could he not investigate her background? He already knew that there was something fishy about this, but that wasn't the main point. What he wanted was the current girl. If it was the previous … that person, he definitely wouldn't admit it.
"You haven't eaten at Refined Deity Building for more than half a year. Are you panicking from missing me?" He took the initiative to change the topic. He originally thought that this girl asked him out for something, but now it seemed that there was an eighty percent chance that she was hungry.
"Xuan Tianming." She leaned forward to discuss with him, "When we return to the military camp, can we also bring the chef who was sent to the county princess' manor? Since he'll be idle after we leave, let's bring him to the military camp! I'm begging you. "
"Just look at yourself." He reached out and poked her little nose, but the words that came out were: "Of course you can."
Feng Yu Heng giggled then counted on her fingers: "In a few days, it will be Feng Chen Yu's coming of age ceremony. After that, we will need to take care of her wedding. We still need to discuss how to handle Qian Zhou's matters … Xuan Tianming, when will we be able to return to the military camp!"
He knew that this girl's heart was set on the military camp. The capital was not a place that she liked at all, and the Feng family was even less of a place that she wanted to interact with, but he did not understand: "I see that you are quite interested in Feng Chen Yu and old third's wedding. What are you thinking?"
Feng Yu Heng giggled, "It's not just interested. I truly can't wait any longer!"
Seeing that she had a belly full of tricks, Xuan Tianming knew that there would definitely be a good play to watch, thus he nodded, "Then when the time comes, I will also go and watch the wedding. Just treat it as giving him face."
"Good!" Feng Yu Heng's gaze became piercingly cold. That sort of coldness caused people to feel a chill run down their spines.
It had been a long time since she had revealed this sort of gaze. In the military camp, she spent her days producing steel. Otherwise, she would be facing soldiers and blacksmiths. They were all the most simple people in the world, and she spent her days with a warm smile on her face. But upon returning to the capital and coming into contact with the people and matters of the Feng family, her cold gaze did not need to be brewed.
Xuan Tianming thought that there would come a day when he would marry this girl and bring her back to his side. He would never allow her to take a single step into the Feng manor.
"Feng Chen Yu." She smirked and muttered to herself, "She has harmed me and Zirui many times. How could it be enough to just use the Chen family to fill the hole. Just wait and see. What she looks forward to the most in this life is marrying someone who can ascend the throne. Then I will destroy that dream from the very beginning. "
Xuan Tianming seemed to have already seen the start of a good play. He could not help but begin to look forward to the grand occasion of old third marrying a secondary princess.
Feng Yu Heng truly did not have any other reason for coming to Refined Deity Building. She had purely come to relieve her cravings. The pair of idiots chatted and laughed in the private room for more than four hours, but they had no intention of leaving. Bai Ze came in and asked them, "Are we going to have dinner here as well?"
Before the two could reply, they heard a waiter raise his head and call out: "Young master Duan Mu, this way please!"
All of the people in Refined Deity Building were people from Imperial Palace Yu. Even if it was a waiter pouring tea, he was still a spy arranged by the Imperial Palace Yu. This call of young master Duan Mu was clearly meant for the people in the room. Feng Yu Heng raised an eyebrow: "Duan Mu Qing?"
Bai Ze immediately laughed, "The people of the North really are arrogant! Coming to eat a meal, yet they announce their name? "
Xuan Tianming shrugged and laughed, "It's most likely that they did not make a reservation, so they announced their name to scare people."
He gave Bai Ze a look, and Bai Ze understood. Walking over to the wall, he reached out and fiddled with a painting for a while. The voice from the room next door could be clearly heard, "I heard that this Refined Deity Building was opened by His Ninth Highness?" The person speaking was impressively Duan Mu Qing.
Soon after, someone else immediately replied: "Indeed, this is the most expensive restaurant in the entire capital. However, it is also the best restaurant. In addition, all of the people who come here are high ranking officials and nobles. As time passed, its reputation became even better."
Duan Mu Qing did not continue to ask about the Refined Deity Building. Instead, he quickly changed the topic and asked about the most important matter: "At the end of last year, I heard that the emperor's heart seemed to be leaning towards the eldest prince again. However, after coming to the capital this time, I found that His Ninth Highness's aura is still as strong as ever. Why is that?"
Another person explained to him: "Vice commander, you might not know this, but at that time, county princess Ji 'an personally said that His Ninth Highness's legs could not be healed. The emperor was disappointed, so he began to pay more attention to the eldest prince. However, as you can see now, the Ninth Prince's legs are as good as new. He even helped county princess Ji 'an refine steel. The emperor originally liked him, so the wind naturally changed back. "
There was a moment of silence next door. After a while, Duan Mu Qing spoke again: "Then, the position of crown prince will definitely belong to His Ninth Highness?"
The people who came with him all agreed: "That's for sure! There's no doubt about it! "
Feng Yu Heng pointed four fingers at Xuan Tianming, indicating that there were four people there. Xuan Tianming nodded and gave a look of approval.
The people next door spoke again: "I heard that His Third Highness will soon marry Prime Minister Feng's eldest daughter?"
"I heard that Prime Minister Feng's daughter has been prophesied to have the aspect of the phoenix since she was young!"
"But she is only a concubine's daughter now … …"
Duan Mu Qing's voice could be heard: "His Third Highness is only marrying a concubine. She is a concubine's daughter, so she is suitable. As for the aspect of the phoenix, I have also heard about it. However, His Third Highness said that it was all nonsense. Perhaps that Daoist saw that Eldest Miss Feng's appearance was good, so he came up with the theory of the aspect of the phoenix. It's not believable, not believable. "
Although he said this, the topic was still brought up. The people here really did gossip about the aspect of the phoenix for a long time.
Feng Yu Heng's lips curled into a cold smile. Rumors stopped with the wise and flourished with the foolish, but they started with the schemer. It seemed that Duan Mu Qing wanted to make a fuss about this.
At this time, someone next door suddenly said: "Eh? Look, who is that? — — "
