While Feng Zi Hao was crying, the people who had gone to search Jin Yu courtyard returned. Among them, there were two young girls who clearly had bruises on their faces. While walking, they cried.
The matriarch did not like seeing them and asked: "What happened?"
Granny Zhao walked over to the matriarch's side and supported her arm, replying: "They were hit by the head madam. Seeing that we went to search the courtyard, the head madam began to cause a ruckus. Grabbing the two servants, she repeatedly hit them. "
The matriarch angrily snorted: "How could this sort of vile woman be worthy of being my Feng manor's head wife!"
Granny Zhao tugged at the matriarch's sleeve and handed over the thing in her hand: "This was found under eldest young miss' pillow."
These words were heard by everyone. One by one, they craned their necks to look. Feng Zi Hao even limped forward.
When the matriarch held the thing in her hand, both of her hands trembled. Having lived to this age, what had she not seen? A doll used in witchcraft had actually been found under Feng Chen Yu's pillow.
Looking at the back of the doll, she saw the words Feng Zi Hao and his birthday written on it. The matriarch felt a chill in her heart. Why did not a single one of these grandchildren allow her to be at ease!
"Feng Chen Yu!" Feng Zi Hao immediately lost his temper upon seeing this thing, "Feng Chen Yu! You're such a venomous woman! You actually dare to curse me like this! "
Feng Chen Yu was truly more wronged than Dou E. When had she ever had that sort of thing under her pillow? Even if Feng Zi Hao was not a proper person, he was still her brother. How could she harm him to such a degree?
"Grandmother!" Her eyes filled with tears, and her entire body trembled, "Chen Yu did not harm brother. That little person was not stabbed by Chen Yu!"
"Then why was it found under your pillow?" Feng Zi Hao pointed at Chen Yu and cursed: "I only lay next to your pillow once, yet you woman actually want to curse me to death!"
"I did not curse you!"
The brother and sister began to argue in front of everyone. Feng Yu Heng pulled Zirui to the side. The two sat on the flower bed and chatted while looking at the scenery: "Zirui, in the future, you must not learn from eldest brother. Do you hear me?"
Feng Zirui nodded vigorously. "Sister, don't worry. Zirui is a good kid. I won't do bad things."
There was a commotion in the courtyard. The old lady's health had not been good recently. She was either angered by this or that every day. How many days had it been? She had not stopped. She felt her blood rushing to her head. The feeling she had when she fell ill in Pine Courtyard came back again.
She was so frightened that she quickly reached for the medicine that Feng Yu Heng had given her in her sleeve pocket. She uncorked the bottle and poured it into her mouth. After a while, she finally calmed down.
She couldn't help but think of how good Feng Yu Heng was. When she looked again, her second granddaughter was holding her youngest grandson and chatting by the flower bed. The two siblings were very intimate. The more she looked at Feng Zirui's dignified appearance, the better he looked.
Looking at the brother and sister on this side, they were both born from the same mother, but at this moment, they were quarreling non-stop with red eyebrows and green eyes. If it were not for one of them being injured and the other remembering to be reserved, perhaps they would have already begun to fight.
The matriarch could not help but glare at Yao shi. If it were not for the Yao family's sudden change, how good would the Feng manor's days be!
While the courtyard was being noisy, Feng Jin Yuan returned from court.
The prime minister, who already had a dark expression, heard Feng Zi Hao angrily curse upon entering the courtyard: "Why didn't this great one sleep with you at that time?"
"Whose old man are you? Who do you want to sleep with? " Feng Jin Yuan felt that he had truly committed a sin to give birth to such a thing. He immediately rushed in front of Feng Zi Hao and slapped him twice on the head, causing Feng Zi Hao to become dizzy and confused.
Feng Zi Hao did not clearly see who had hit him and subconsciously cursed: "Which bastard dared to hit this great one?"
Seeing that it was his own old man, he immediately withered.
Chen Yu dropped to her knees and grabbed Feng Jin Yuan's clothes while crying: "Father, Chen Yu has truly been wronged. Chen Yu really did not do anything to curse elder brother!"
Feng Jin Yuan glanced at Chen Yu then turned back to look at Daoist Zi Yang. Frowning, he asked: "Why has Daoist Zi Yang come?"
The matriarch tugged at Feng Jin Yuan and told him about what had happened earlier. Feng Jin Yuan stomped his foot "Foolish!"
The matriarch did not understand, "How have I become foolish? Back then, didn't you also firmly believe the words that Daoist Zi Yang said? He said that Heng Zheng was the star of disaster, and he said that Chen Yu was the aspect of the phoenix. Aren't these things also … also currently happening. "
Feng Jin Yuan originally felt that Zi Yang coming to the Feng manor at this time was truly causing trouble, but when the star of disaster was mentioned, he had no choice but to think about the things that had happened over the past few days. It seemed that ever since Feng Yu Heng returned to the manor, the Feng family had not had a moment of peace. Could it be that this girl really was the bane of the Feng manor?
Just as he cast a doubtful gaze towards Feng Yu Heng, at this time, housekeeper He Zhong, who had been standing at the entrance, suddenly rushed over to him and whispered a few words into his ear.
Feng Jin Yuan's expression became cold, as he quickly pointed at Zi Yang and said to He Zhong: "Quickly! Tie him up and throw him into the firewood shed in the backyard! Quickly! "
He Zhong did not say another word, as he gestured for a group of male servants to tie up Zi Yang tightly.
Nobody understood what was going on. Zi Yang's mouth was stuffed with cotton, so he could not make a single sound.
Feng Jin Yuan originally did not have time to explain, so he only warned everyone: "Nobody is allowed to bring up today's matters again!"
At this time, they heard a lazy and playful voice say from the entrance: "What matters are not allowed to be brought up again?"
Immediately following this, a shrill and awkward voice loudly announced: "His Highness Prince Yu has arrived!"
Everyone in the Feng manor felt their minds explode with a "boom"!
Prince Yu? Arrived?
That Fighting Immortal Buddha came personally?
Feng Jin Yuan's calves began to cramp. He had been the prime minister for so many years, and interacting with princes was considered a daily occurrence. But it just had to be this ninth prince. From beginning to end, he could not get close to him in the slightest. Even when he had gotten engaged to Feng Yu Heng, he had heard others say that the ninth prince had spread the word that the engagement was to give face to the Empress. When the time came, whether or not he married her would be up to him.
That was why this engagement had been forgotten by many people. In fact, the Emperor had even bestowed the daughter of a prince with a different surname to the Ninth Prince once more.
The reason why he had the idea of swapping Chen Yu out was because he thought that the Ninth Prince would definitely be made the crown prince upon his return from a great victory. When that time came, he would join forces with the other officials to exert pressure on the Emperor. Perhaps the engagement that had already been swapped would become a success. Based on Feng Chen Yu's beauty, even if the Ninth Prince did not do it at the time, he would still fall at her feet not long after.
But now, Feng Jin Yuan began to regret getting involved with the Ninth Prince. Aside from his injuries, this person's personality was becoming more and more difficult to understand, causing Feng Jin Yuan to be unable to avoid him.
Just like now, that person had suddenly come to the Feng manor, and their Feng family was completely unprepared. What was worse was that the arrival of the Ninth Prince could not possibly be a good thing. It was likely that another disaster was about to happen.
With the announcement of Prince Yu's arrival, a jade sedan was carried in by four porters. Sitting on the sedan was a man in purple robes. The golden mask on his face shined brightly under the sunlight, causing people to not dare look directly at him.
Everyone in the Feng manor kneeled to welcome him, loudly shouting: "Long live his Highness Prince Yu."
Feng Yu Heng slightly raised her head and glared at Xuan Tianming. She saw that person's gaze also happen to be directed towards her. Their eyes met, and they both rolled their eyes at the other.
Xuan Tianming did not have the slightest intention of having the porters lower the jade sedan. He only lazily raised his hand and heard the head eunuch at his side say: "Rise!"
Only then did the people of the Feng family stand up.
Feng Jin Yuan took the initiative to step forward and said: "I did not know his Highness Prince Yu had arrived and did not go out to meet him. I hope his Highness will forgive me."
Xuan Tianming looked at Feng Jin Yuan and did not speak for a long time. He only fiddled with the whip in his hand.
Feng Jin Yuan knew that it was this whip that took the lives of the dozens of Imperial Guards in the palace.
"Lord Feng still has not replied to this prince's question." Xuan Tian Ming spoke up once more. He was clearly speaking very slowly, and it was as though he was about to fall asleep. But once these words came out, his voice was filled with a fatal coldness. It also carried a bit of charm, just like the purple lotus on his brow. It forced people to not dare look directly at him, but they could not help but want to look at him.
Feng Jin Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and helplessly said: "It's nothing. It's nothing."
"Hm?" Xuan Tianming stood up from the back of the jade sedan and leaned forward: "Is Lord Feng questioning I's ears?"
"This official does not dare." Feng Jin Yuan thought to himself, how could I dare to question you, "Just now, it was just a family matter. Even if I spoke of it, I fear it would disturb his Highness' peace."
"Oh." Xuan Tianming nodded and did not continue to ask. He just sat on the jade sedan and did not speak. He just leaned against the sun and basked in it. It was as though he was about to fall asleep.
Feng Jin Yuan was truly helpless. Gathering his courage, he asked: "I do not know why his Highness came to the Feng manor today …"
"If you didn't mention it, I would have nearly forgotten." Xuan Tianming finally opened the topic, "I came to deliver food to the future princess."
Feng Yu Heng facepalmed and suddenly recalled that day in Refined Deity Building, Xuan Tianming had said that she was thin and that the Feng family still dared to not give her food to eat. She thought that it was just a passing remark. Who knew that this person would remember it.
Feng Jin Yuan did not understand and asked in confusion: "Deliver food? Deliver what food? "
Xuan Tianming pointed at Feng Yu Heng: "Our family's Heng Heng was thrown into the mountains of the Northwest to feed the wolves for three years. She's become skin and bones. I originally thought that when I returned to the capital, the Feng family would compensate me, right? Who knew that when I saw her yesterday, I found that she was still so thin. Since your Feng manor can't raise a daughter, that's fine. I will raise her. Either way, she will be marrying into the Imperial Palace Yu. "
These words were truly a slap to the Feng family's face, but nobody dared to resist. Feng Jin Yuan did not dare. The matriarch also did not dare. Everyone else could only lower their heads.
But there was one person that made a mistake "How could the Feng family not be able to raise a daughter!"
Everyone turned their heads. The person that spoke was Feng Zi Hao.
Of course, Xuan Tianming could not speak directly to Feng Zi Hao, but he also did not plan to ignore him. Thus, the one that responded to Feng Zi Hao was the whip in his hand.
Only a "pa" sound was heard, as Xuan Tian Ming's whip flew over and struck Feng Zi Hao's body. The strike nearly caused him to pass out.
"When I speak, when has it been your turn to interrupt?!"
