Feng Yu Heng's words, however, caused the person who heard it to break out in a cold sweat. They could not help but clench their fists then loosen them then clench them again. After repeating this a few times, they finally managed to suppress their fear and nervousness.
But Feng Yu Heng continued, saying: "His Majesty demoted you to feed the horses, and the family's expenses were reduced. There is nothing wrong with you dismissing some servants. But apparently, you can't even afford to keep the hidden guards you originally used? "She said this while laughing," This is just what you see on the surface! It's for outsiders to see, but in reality, although the original hidden guards have been removed, a new person has taken over. Apparently, the experts at father's side are from Qian Zhou? "
Feng Jin Yuan was shocked and suddenly became furious: "You are monitoring me?"
Feng Yu Heng generously nodded and admitted: "That's right."
"You-" Feng Jin Yuan was at a loss for words. If his daughter was quibbling, he could say a few words, but she had so generously admitted it. How should he respond to this? In truth, Feng Jin Yuan was somewhat prepared for the fact that Feng Yu Heng was monitoring him. He had already taken note of his second daughter's clever methods long ago. Even his former hidden guards had mentioned to him that they would occasionally see people from the second young miss' side in the manor. But there was nothing that could be done. There was a difference in strength between the hidden guards on both sides. He could not catch them. He had vaguely seen them once or twice, but he did not have any evidence. Even more so, it was not as though he had never sent a hidden guard to Tong Sheng pavilion to investigate. Unfortunately, they were tightly guarded, and he had never succeeded.
The accusation of "you are monitoring me" left Feng Jin Yuan speechless, but Feng Yu Heng's next words caused him to cough up blood. Feng Yu Heng said: "I guessed correctly!" As she spoke, she snapped her fingers. Her face was filled with the aura of a ruffian, but it was also very beautiful.
Feng Jin Yuan felt a metallic taste in his mouth. He tried a few times to suppress it, but a trace of blood still seeped out of the corner of his lips.
It turned out that she had guessed correctly!
But how could she have guessed so accurately?
Feng Jin Yuan suddenly felt a trace of regret. If he had not placed his hopes on Chen Yu and had instead turned to his second daughter, would today's situation have been different?
Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets. Three years in the northwest, coupled with the assassination attempt on his way back to the capital, had already doomed him and his second daughter to run in opposite directions for the rest of their lives. There was simply no room for reconciliation.
He stared blankly at Feng Yu Heng, unable to speak for a long time. Feng Yu Heng asked him in confusion, "Father, I'm really curious. What exactly do you have in your hands?"
Feng Jin Yuan subconsciously shook his head and squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "No."
She chuckled. "If Father says there isn't, then there is. In truth, things were not that clear. I was just trying to get a reaction from father, but father allowed me to confirm my guess. "This might be the true reason that Kang Yi had to marry Feng Jin Yuan, right? Feng Yu Heng thought that perhaps this was the true reason that Tian Wu had not done anything to Feng Jin Yuan for so many years.
She had long been curious about Tian Wu's attitude toward Feng Jin Yuan. This person had some knowledge; otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to have entered a high school. He also had some contributions to the court. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to have risen to the position of prime minister. But he was also sufficiently stupid. There were many things where he stood on the opposite side of Tian Wu. Based on Tian Wu's personality, no matter how talented Feng Jin Yuan was, it was impossible for him to tolerate him for so many years. The only explanation was that Feng Jin Yuan had something that he also wanted.
But what exactly was it?
Feng Yu Heng furrowed her brow slightly; however, she had already lost the need to continue discussing with Feng Jin Yuan. That thing had definitely not been in his possession for just a day or two. It was not even a year or two. With things as they were, she trusted that even if she threatened him with death, Feng Jin Yuan would not say it. Because once he said it, there would truly be no reason for him to continue living.
When Feng Yu Heng left, Feng Jin Yuan was still standing foolishly in place. She only left him with "Take care of yourself." She then quickly left the room.
This brand new Feng manor was just as irritating as before. She brought Huang Quan out of the manor's gates. Song Kang was already waiting at the entrance. After the group met up, they immediately got into the imperial carriage and did not linger for a moment longer.
The sky had already turned completely dark. Inside the Imperial Palace Yu, a certain prince was leaning against the wall. His arms were crossed over his chest, as he gloomily waited for his wife to return home.
Upon entering, Feng Yu Heng saw her future husband's bitter expression. On his face were three words: Unhappy!
She tapped her head and helplessly walked forward. Using her finger, she poked him "Hey."
Her husband did not move.
She poked again: "Hey, hey."
Her husband still did not move.
Huang Quan tugged at Song Kang's sleeve and quietly said: "Let's get out of here!"
Song Kang nodded and very tactfully retreated with Huang Quan.
Only Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming remained in front of the screen wall. Even the gatekeeper had closed the manor's gates and found a place to hide.
Feng Yu Heng looked all around to make sure that there was nobody around. She then raised her foot and was about to kick Xuan Tianming. As a result, before her foot could land, it was caught by another leg and twisted. This caused her to lose her footing and fall into her husband's embrace.
Feng Yu Heng suddenly felt a sense of despair. She felt that no matter how hard she trained, she would never be able to beat Xuan Tianming in martial arts. She bitterly cried: "If the two of us fight in the future, I really can't beat you."
Xuan Tianming raised an eyebrow: "Why would the two of us fight?"
"Aren't we fighting right now?" She pointed at her leg, "Are you not going to let go?"
Xuan Tianming rubbed his nose and boasted shamelessly: "This isn't called fighting. This is called your husband teaching you a lesson."
She angrily gritted her teeth: "I'm giving you a bit of face, and you're still so arrogant? Don't think that I really can't beat you! "These words were said with a bit of a guilty conscience. She did not have the courage to look at him.
Xuan Tianming smiled and then helped her stand up. With a serious expression, he said: "I heard that you saved that Han shi? Why did you save her? You might as well let her die and be done with it. In the future, you don't have to worry about the Feng family's matters. If anyone else has bad intentions, I will chop up their entire family. Not a single one will be left. "
She was speechless, "There are still quite a few good people. Chop them up as well? Also, "She paused for a moment, her expression becoming serious," I keep feeling that father Emperor has kept Feng Jin Yuan for some other reason. I also suspect that Feng Jin Yuan has something in his hands. This sort of thing might be something that Qian Zhou and Dashun might want. "
As she spoke to this point, a banging sound suddenly came from outside the door. It was someone knocking on the door. The gatekeeper, who had been hiding to the side, came out. He even greeted the two with a smile before going to open the door.
The two turned around to look. The person that had rushed in was actually Wang Chuan.
On the day that Xiao Jing's matter had been exposed, Feng Yu Heng had sent Wang Chuan out to search for her. But now that she saw Wang Chuan's expression when he returned, her heart became cold.
Sure enough, when Wang Chuan arrived before the two, the first thing he said was: "This servant was negligent. That woman from Qian Zhou was not found."
Although Feng Yu Heng felt that it was a pity, she did not find it unexpected. Since she had already analyzed that Xiao Jing was not a normal maidservant, for her to have disappeared without a trace was within her expectations.
Wang Chuan was a little worried about not being able to find her. He could not help but raise his own thoughts: "Could it be that lord Feng hid her?"
Before Feng Yu Heng could speak, Xuan Tianming snorted coldly then said: "Since there are people from Qian Zhou at his side, it's possible that he did something in secret. But it's also possible that the one hiding her is some other power. "
Feng Yu Heng was not surprised. Xuan Tianming knew that there were people from Qian Zhou at Feng Jin Yuan's side. This was something that even her hidden guards were able to find out, much less Xuan Tianming.
The two did not say anything else, only informing Wang Chuan to continue paying attention to any movements. They then returned to their rooms. Upon entering, Feng Yu Heng immediately told Xuan Tianming about the guess that she had made in front of Feng Jin Yuan. By the end, she was still unable to think of what Feng Jin Yuan would have that would cause Qian Zhou to spend so much effort on him, thus she asked Xuan Tianming: "You also take a guess. Help me analyze it."
Xuan Tianming glared at her, "Returning late today, I's anger has yet to subside."
She helplessly said: "At that time, Han shi pushed Xiang Rong into the water for the sake of covering up the truth. If it was not for my people seeing her and saving her, I fear that I would not have been able to protect this third sister. Xiang Rong could not accept this, nor could concubine mother An. Just based on how concubine mother An looked like she wanted to tear apart Han shi, I also needed to help. As for me helping Han shi give birth to the child, I also wanted to disgust Feng Jin Yuan. Even if he did not want to wear this green hat, he had to wear it. Also, I needed to have him wear it for everyone to know. "
"Everyone to know?" Xuan Tianming's lips curled into a strange smile, "Good! Then let's make it known to everyone. Beloved concubine, this prince will lend you a hand. "
Feng Yu Heng looked at her husband's fox-like smile and knew that this guy had a belly full of evil ideas. But how to disgust Feng Jin Yuan?
She was not too concerned about this matter. At this moment, she was still most conflicted about the fact that she could not think of what exactly Feng Jin Yuan had that would cause Qian Zhou and Dashun to care so much. Exactly how much of a bargaining chip was that thing?
She continued to urge Xuan Tianming: "Quickly think about it!" While saying this, she began to think: "Thinking about it like this, it seems that her Highness the Empress' goal in sending her two nieces to the Feng manor was not as simple as currying favor with me. What do you think?"
Xuan Tianming smiled and patted her hair, "Little girl, you've finally been enlightened."
Feng Yu Heng exploded, "So you knew, right? You knew that Feng Jin Yuan had something, and you knew that Qian Zhou wanted it. Dashun also had some misgivings. Even the Cheng shi sisters' goal in entering the manor was not simple. You knew all of it? "
She was a little angry. She had always believed that there should not be anything hidden between her and Xuan Tian Ming, but she had only just begun to make some progress on this matter, yet this person already knew about it. This sort of feeling was very difficult to describe. It was as though you had happily brought something good to your best friend, only to find that they were already holding it. It was very frustrating.
Seeing that the girl's mood had fallen, Xuan Tianming quickly explained to her: "It's not what you think. Don't misunderstand. I don't really know. I was just guessing like you. It was because I guessed that I sent people to investigate. After investigating, there were some clues, but in the end, it was just a rumor. As for this rumor, I only heard about it today. At that time, you were in the Feng manor."
With him saying it like this, Feng Yu Heng's mind became much clearer, but her mood was still unable to quickly recover. There was nothing that Xuan Tianming could do. After thinking a little, he coaxed her and said: "Beloved concubine, how about I promise you something that has been on your mind?"
Feng Yu Heng raised an eyebrow: "What is it?"
He leaned forward and raised his right hand, gently touching the golden mask. Placing his other hand on her shoulder, he leaned forward and said in a voice filled with temptation: "Beloved concubine, didn't you want to see I's face for a long time?"
