Once the words deceiving the ruler were said, the citizens that were causing a ruckus immediately felt their legs give out, as they dropped to their knees. Someone loudly begged: "County princess, don't go! County princess, you absolutely must not go! "
Feng Yu Heng coldly snorted: "What was it that was said just now? You keep saying that this county princess is ungrateful. You keep saying that the Feng family's kindness should not be forgotten. What is it? Once you heard that he committed the crime of deceiving the monarch, you threw those kindness to the back of your mind? "
Of course! Of course, they had to. They were just looking for money. They were not idiots. The other crimes were easy to deal with, but the crime of deceiving was not something to joke about.
Someone fiercely glared at the matriarch and loudly said: "Elder madam Feng, you want us to go beg for a life for someone that has angered the Emperor. What sort of intentions do you have?"
Once this was said, another person immediately followed up: "Right! Could it be that you want us to throw our lives away? Use our lives to exchange for your son's life? "
The matriarch was rendered speechless because what they had said was correct. She really was thinking this way.
The people saw that she did not speak and saw that her thoughts had been pointed out. What was there to not understand? The poor citizens did not have much to worry about. Those who were barefooted did not fear those who were wearing shoes. The matriarch had such evil intentions and wanted their lives, thus they had to go all out against this shameless matriarch!
Once this thought came to mind, the people rushed forward and wildly rushed toward the matriarch.
Fen Dai let out an "ah" scream, and the matriarch also let out an "ow, ow" scream. Granny Zhao did not even have a chance to let out a cry before being drowned out by the crazy crowd. Those people's fists and feet were not polite at all as they greeted the two. By the end, there were even people who took off their shoes and used the bottom of their shoes to desperately hit the matriarch.
Huang Quan and Wang Chuan grimaced at this sight. Wang Chuan was a bit worried and asked Feng Yu Heng: "Will she be beaten to death?"
Feng Yu Heng raised an eyebrow: "She was the one that invited them. Now that they have rebelled, even if they are beaten to death, what does that have to do with me?"
As soon as she said that, Yao Xian, who was standing beside her, finally let go of the haze and laughed loudly. "That's my granddaughter! This is how our Mr. Heng should be! "
Huang Quan smiled and corrected him, "Doctor Yao, she's your granddaughter!"
Yao Xian waved his hand. "What granddaughter? She's just a granddaughter. This old man only has one daughter in his entire life. Among the grandchildren, I only have one daughter, Miss Heng. She is very precious to me. Since the Feng family is unwilling to recognize her, then she is my Yao family's daughter. There is no such thing as a granddaughter. She is a granddaughter. "
Feng Yu Heng also smiled and said, "Well, then I'll call you Grandpa from now on, not Grandfather."
After she finished speaking, the two of them exchanged glances and smiled at each other. In the eyes of Huang Quan and Wang Chuan, this sort of smile was just a grandfather doting on his granddaughter, but Feng Yu Heng and Yao Xian knew that this was restoring their most fundamental relationship.
The Feng matriarch had been beaten, but not a single one of the Imperial Guards at the county princess' manor's entrance went forward to stop her. Feng Yu Heng also stood in the imperial carriage and watched the liveliness for a long time. Only after the Feng manor's gatekeeper heard the commotion did He Zhong rush over with some people. Only then was the matriarch and Fen Dai saved.
But even though they were saved, at this time, the matriarch and Fen Dai were about to be beaten flat by the angry mob. Fen Dai's small face had changed shape, as it swelled up like a pig's head. The matriarch was unconscious, and her body was still twitching. Granny Zhao was the same. She had fainted long ago.
He Zhong pointed at the mob and repeatedly cursed. Those people also began to retort; however, they did not dare go forward. After all, the Feng manor had guards that knew martial arts. When amateurs ran into professionals, they knew that they would be at a disadvantage.
He Zhong cursed for a while before someone reminded him: "Housekeeper, the elder madam is most likely not going to make it!"
He Zhong was also furious, as he slapped that person across the face "Shut your damn mouth!" Although he said this, he turned his head toward the matriarch. It would have been fine if he did not look, but after he did, he was nearly scared to death. "Elder madam!" He Zhong screamed and completely ignored Fen Dai, who was also groaning on the ground. He quickly ordered: "Quickly call a doctor. Quickly call a doctor!"
A retainer quickly went to call a doctor, while someone tugged at He Zhong's sleeve and pointed in the direction of Feng Yu Heng, quietly saying: "Second young miss is right there." Their meaning was that this was the best doctor.
But He Zhong did not have the face or the courage to look in Feng Yu Heng's direction. He had seen everything that the matriarch had done. He knew that something was going to happen, but the matriarch did not listen to anyone's advice. She insisted on doing it. He was just a housekeeper, so how much could he say. Now that something had happened, he was afraid, but he could only think of two words: Serves you right!
He Zhong felt that the matriarch deserved it. Was this not courting death! Now that things had reached this point, whether or not she could survive would depend on her luck.
He gritted his teeth and wanted to go over to pay respects to Feng Yu Heng; however, at this time, he heard the person standing in the imperial carriage suddenly shout: "Imperial Guards, listen up. There are mobs beating up the family of an official. Immediately arrest all of the mobs! Escort them to the yamen! "
Once this order was given, the Imperial Guards only said one word in unison — — "Yes!" Then they pulled out their swords and surrounded the mobs.
The mobs were shocked. They opened their mouths and wanted to shout, but when their voices rushed out of their throats, it was just a meaningless monotone. They didn't know what to say at all, because nothing they said made sense. First, they made things difficult for county princess Ji An. Then they hit the Feng matriarch. Only now did they realize that they had been too impulsive and had been used. But now that things had gotten to this point, what else could they say? Some of the more violent people were being escorted by the Imperial Guards. As they walked to the yamen, they loudly shouted: "If I knew earlier, I would have been more ruthless and beat that matriarch and young miss to death!"
The chaotic shouts gradually faded away. Feng Yu Heng finally jumped down from the imperial carriage and personally helped Yao Xian out.
Yao Xian bitterly smiled, "My body is not so weak that I need someone to help me out of the carriage."
She said: "This has nothing to do with your body. This is your granddaughter's filial piety."
On one side was the grandparent and grandchild relationship. On the other side, He Zhong quietly muttered: "The matriarch won't be able to live! She won't be able to live! "
When Yao Xian passed by, he snorted and spat out: "If she's going to die, take her back to the Feng manor to die. Don't die in front of the county princess' manor. It's inauspicious!" He then followed Feng Yu Heng into the manor.
After their group entered, the Imperial Guards outside began to chase them away "Did you not hear the old man's words? Quickly take them away! "
His words were very impolite, but they were Imperial Guards. He Zhong could not speak to them at all. He could only direct the servants to take the matriarch and the other two back to the manor. At the same time, he repeatedly ordered "Send a few more people to call a doctor. It's fine to call a few more!"
With the commotion outside the manor, the county princess' manor was not peaceful either. The matriarch had brought people to cause a ruckus outside the manor, and Yao shi had been on tenterhooks inside the manor the entire time. Xiang Rong, who had returned before Feng Yu Heng, repeatedly tried to console her, but Yao shi could not calm down. She wanted to go out to take a look, but she did not dare. She had truly suffered quite a bit.
But very quickly, a servant came to report that Feng Yu Heng had returned. She finally let out a sigh of relief. Following this, someone reported that imperial physician Yao had returned to the capital and was with county princess at the manor's entrance. Yao shi was immediately stunned.
This stunned state continued until Yao Xian arrived in front of her. Only then did she manage to react; however, she could not say a single word. She just staggered forward and hugged Yao Xian while crying loudly.
Feng Yu Heng had previously told Yao Xian about Yao shi's situation, including how she looked like her. Although Yao Xian was somewhat prepared, when he saw that she looked like Feng Yu Heng's mother from his previous life, his daughter-in-law, he was still shocked. But his thoughts were the same as those of Feng Yu Heng. He also felt that everything that had been lost in his previous life had been made up for by the heavens in this life. This was very good.
The three generations were finally gathered together. The chef of Refined Deity Building busied himself in the kitchen for the entire afternoon. Xuan Tianming was also invited over. That night, the county princess' manor had a reunion dinner. However, this reunion dinner was missing Zirui. Yao Xian said: "That grandson, when I left, he was so small. Now, I'm afraid that I won't be able to recognize him."
Whenever Zirui was mentioned, Yao shi would wipe away her tears. Feng Yu Heng had also told Yao Xian about the change in her mentality. In regards to this, the grandfather and granddaughter did not have anything to say. After all, mother and daughter were connected. A good daughter had changed her soul. In addition, Feng Yu Heng did not deliberately hide it. Perhaps she could use the words of a Persian master to fool others, but Yao shi was her mother. They had lived together in the Northwest for three years. How could she not see through it? After Yao Xian heard about this matter, he told Feng Yu Heng. She could not be blamed. If it was anyone else, they would not feel good.
Feng Yu Heng was now able to calmly face Yao shi's attitude. She knew that Yao shi did not have it easy. A good daughter had changed at the drop of a hat. She had never had a deep relationship with this mother. Yao shi probably already had ten thousand question marks in her head about her outstanding abilities. For her not to ask was already her good fortune.
During the meal, Yao Xian and Xuan Tianming became more and more congenial. Xuan Tianming did not have much contact with Yao Xian in the past. Although Emperor Tianwu and Yao Xian's friendship was not shallow, at that time, he was focused on military matters. How could he care about whether or not his father had a good relationship with an old official? But seeing him today, he finally felt the strength of his genes. This maternal grandfather, why was it that his personality was so similar to his wife's! They were both quick to speak, and they would say whatever they wanted to say. They did not care about seniority, and they both had their own unique views on matters.
Feng Yu Heng also thought about the personality of the body's original owner's maternal grandfather. She feared that he would be on par with her own grandfather … … unreliable. This analysis was made when she entered the palace today. Because of Emperor Tianwu's attitude, she knew that someone who could get along with that silly emperor was most likely not an honest person.
A table full of people.
Yao shi also became interested from hearing this, as she propped up her chin and looked at her father. But in reality, she did not suspect Yao Xian because the previous Yao Xian was like this. In fact, he was even more lively than he was now. As she listened, her eyes lit up, as she suddenly interjected: "In the past, I was curious as to why Heng Zheng's personality had suddenly changed. Only now do I understand that it has not changed at all. It's just that she had been too depressed in the past, so her original personality was restrained. Father, this granddaughter is very much like you. "
Yao Xian laughed loudly, "Being like me is good! Being like me is good! In the future, I won't call her granddaughter, just granddaughter. If the Feng family doesn't want her, the Yao family will want her. Heng Zheng is my Yao family's daughter. "
Just as the people at the table were happily chatting, Wang Chuan quickly ran in from outside. He saluted and said: "Your Highness, young miss, the Feng family's matriarch … … has passed away."
