Following this shout, the imperial carriage stopped across from Feng Yu Heng's carriage. The attendant lifted the curtain, and the person that came out was the fourth prince, Xuan Tian Yi.
Feng Yu Heng had stood up to receive Xiang Rong, but now that she saw the fourth prince arrive, she could not help but smile, secretly calling him a foe.
Before she could react, Xuan Tian Yi cupped his hands in her direction: "Princess Ji 'an, long time no see!" A person that had been imprisoned for a long time was in good spirits. The way he spoke was no longer as awkward and hostile as before. Instead, he was much more open.
Feng Yu Heng thought that everyone said that embroidery could calm a person's heart. It seemed that the fourth prince had truly become a different person.
Thus she bowed slightly to him and said: "Your Highness the fourth prince, greetings." They no longer politely called each other fourth brother and younger sister in front of others. Instead, they directly called each other by their titles. It sounded distant, but it was much better than being sarcastic.
After Xuan Tian Yi greeted Feng Yu Heng, he no longer paid any attention to her. Instead, he leaped out of the imperial carriage and walked a few steps toward Xiang Rong, saying very respectfully: "Master, disciple came to bring you to the banquet."
Xiang Rong frowned and retreated, saying very impolitely: "Who told you to come pick me up? Quickly go back! "
"Go back for what?" Xuan Tian Yi waved his hand, "Father Emperor finally allowed me to come out and participate in the banquet. Why should I go back?" While saying this, he looked at the clothes that Xiang Rong was wearing and the pink jade head ornaments. He nodded in satisfaction, "That's right. I just said that you look good dressed like this. You're still so young. How can you act like an old man? "
Xiang Rong originally had a good personality and was a bit timid. But over the past two years, she had lost her patience due to the changes in her family. Also, ever since she began teaching Xuan Tian Yi embroidery, her temper had not been very good. It actually shot up in a straight line. It was such that every time the two met, they would be at daggers drawn. This time was also the first time. Once Xuan Tian Yi spoke, she immediately retorted: "Who are you saying is acting like an old man? You're the old one! You're almost thirty years old, but you don't even have a proper job. All you do is embroider at home all day long. How promising! "
Xuan Tian Yi moved to cover her mouth but was dodged by Xiang Rong. He then stomped his foot and said: "My dear grandaunt! Don't say anything you don't like! I was successful in the past, and I had a proper job, but can I still do it now? "
Xiang Rong was startled. Only then did she remember that he was a prince. In the past, he had also planned for a large matter. In fact, that matter involved the throne. Now that he had finally learned his lesson and stopped, if his fighting spirit was aroused again, she would not be able to bear the responsibility.
When she thought of this, she quickly changed the topic, "Your embroidery skills are also not bad. Embroidery can calm one's mind, so you should calm down. Get out of the way, I'm going to the banquet with Second Sister. "
How could Xuan Tianyi allow her to get into Feng Yu Heng's car, as he quickly spoke up, "Look, you are my master. This is something that everyone in the capital knows. This time, Father Emperor was able to allow me to leave the palace and enter the palace. That is a great grace. I specially brought a piece of embroidery that I personally embroidered to thank Father Emperor for not abandoning me. Master, just help me out. I will personally send you into the palace. This will definitely reach Father Emperor's ears. Father Emperor will definitely be able to see that I have changed my mind and understand how to respect my teachers. In the future, perhaps he will take care of me a little more. Treat it as helping me out. "
With him saying this, Xiang Rong's heart softened a little. Thinking a little more, over the past year, Xuan Tian Yi had been quite obedient. Aside from embroidery, he did not do anything else. He spent his days cooped up in the Ping Palace. To a prince, it was indeed quite difficult for him.
With her heart softening, Xuan Tian Yi quickly struck while the iron was hot, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Everyone that is entering the palace is for the sake of making Father Emperor happy. If Father Emperor heard that I was able to focus on learning embroidery from you and did not cause any trouble, as well as personally coming to bring you into the palace, he would definitely be happy to hear about it. Whether it's being a son or an official, aren't we just trying to be happy! Don't you think so? "
Xiang Rong was helpless. She had never felt that Xuan Tian Yi was so eloquent, but the things that he had said today were all set, and she had no way of refusing. Thus she could only apologize to Feng Yu Heng: "Second sister, I'm sorry. How about … I just sit in his carriage!"
Of course, Feng Yu Heng did not mind. Nodding with a smile, she said: "Go ahead! We will meet in the palace in a bit. "
"Un." Xiang Rong complied then bowed. Only then did she prepare to walk in the other direction. As a result, Xuan Tian Yi remained standing in place. She took a step forward, and the two nearly bumped into each other. This angered Xiang Rong so much that she reflexively kicked him: "Get out of the way!"
Xuan Tian Yi quickly dodged. While gesturing for a servant to help Xiang Rong into the carriage, he cupped his hands to Feng Yu Heng's side and the people that were watching: "This little girl is not sensible. Everyone, please excuse me! Please excuse me! "
Xiang Rong angrily turned around and spat out: "What little girl? A teacher for a day, a father for life! "
"Right, right." Xuan Tian Yi quickly complied, "A teacher for a day, a wife for life." He then smiled mischievously and got into the imperial carriage.
The driver rode off, leaving behind Feng Yu Heng to sit in front of the carriage and laugh foolishly. Huang Quan asked her: "Young miss, what are you laughing about?"
She shrugged, "It's nothing. I just feel that people can't be viewed the same way. They need to experience some things before making a judgment. Just like the fourth prince today. Who could have thought that the person that was in cahoots with old third would become like this? "
These words caused Huang Quan to feel a bit emotional, but he still hurried Feng Yu Heng back into the carriage to avoid being watched by others. He then called for the driver to slowly drive the carriage forward. He then picked up Feng Zhao Lian, who was waiting outside the Lian residence.
Today, Wu Li Sheng was not with him. Only a normal servant was with him. Feng Zhao Lian was still wearing red clothes; however, they were newly made. Aside from the domineering aura that he had worn in the Northern country, these clothes had a bit of a Jiangnan charm. The curves of his body were very perfect, and anyone that saw him could not help but take a few more glances.
Feng Yu Heng was truly unable to hold back and asked: "Are you going to attend a banquet or a talent show?"
Feng Zhao Lian did not respond to her question. He just tucked his hair behind his ear then said: "I saw everything just now. Your third sister really is a perfect match for the fourth prince."
Feng Yu Heng glanced sideways at him and said: "As I see it, that might not be the case. Xiang Rong doesn't like the fourth prince."
"Hah! Feelings are things that can be nurtured! She doesn't like him today, but that doesn't mean she won't like him tomorrow. As long as someone can create more opportunities for them and give them a push at a critical moment. I say, as an older sister, you can't just stand by and watch! "
Feng Yu Heng asked with a smile: "Why are you so interested in Xiang Rong's matters?"
Huang Quan, however, picked up on this and said: "I heard that his Highness Prince Lian has been running over to the Feng manor recently, and it was the Feng family's fourth young miss that personally received him. Thinking about it, she must have told you quite a bit about the Feng manor's secrets, right? But I heard that the Feng family's third young miss had received a great deal of help from his Highness the seventh prince? Do the two have a bit of a relationship? "
Feng Zhao Lian did not hide it, only saying: "His Highness the seventh prince is not suited for her."
Feng Yu Heng laughed, "Then who is suited for? Suited for you? "
"Of course!" Feng Zhao Lian boasted shamelessly, "Just based on looks, he is suited for me."
"I feel that his Highness the fourth prince is more suited for you." Feng Yu Heng said, "How about I introduce the two of you?"
Feng Zhao Lian shook his head like a rattle drum, "No need, no need, no need. I don't like the fourth prince."
"Hah! Things like feelings can be nurtured! " Feng Yu Heng imitated what Feng Zhao Lian had just said, "You don't like him today, but that does not mean you won't like him tomorrow. As long as there is someone like me that can create opportunities for you and give you a push at a critical moment, this matter can still be done."
Feng Zhao Lian was rendered speechless. He had smashed his own foot with a rock, and he could only swallow this bitterness. But in the end, he was unwilling to accept it, as he continued to put on a brave front: "If you really have the heart to help someone, when we enter the palace in a while, you need to help me create an opportunity to interact with the seventh prince."
Feng Yu Heng, however, said: "If I really had that heart, I would have knocked you out with a slap right now and forcefully treated your illness."
Feng Zhao Lian trembled and did not dare make another sound.
The imperial carriage headed in the direction of the imperial palace. Finally, when it entered Rui Gate, it began to slow down. In the end, it simply stopped and could not continue.
Feng Zhao Lian continued to shout: "Why have we stopped moving? Why have we stopped moving?"
Huang Quan lifted the curtain and took a look outside. Turning around, he said: "There are too many people. The imperial carriage can't go in. They're all madams and young misses that have come to participate in the imperial banquet. They've completely blocked the road. "
"Then have them move out of the way!" Feng Zhao Lian had become accustomed to being domineering in Qian Zhou. In his mind, there was no such thing as holding back. Feng Yu Heng helplessly reminded him: "This place is Dashun. If you truly don't have a sense of immersion, just think about those dark times when you were locked up."
With this being said, Feng Zhao Lian lost his temper. He shrunk back into the carriage and did not make another sound. As for Huang Quan, he continued to watch from the entrance of the carriage. While watching, he spoke to the driver. Feng Yu Heng began to explain to Feng Zhao Lian: "The Mid-Autumn Festival's banquet is split into two groups. The male guests and the female guests cannot go through the same palace gate. We will be going through the Rui Gate of the Eastern Inner Palace. The male guests will be going through the main gate of the imperial palace, De Yang Gate. "
Feng Zhao Lian expressed his disdain for this, "Favoring males over females."
Feng Yu Heng snorted coldly, "That's right. I really have never heard of a grown man that would give up on being a man and insist on being a woman."
Feng Zhao Lian lost his temper once more and simply ignored her. He then opened the curtain and looked outside. Fortunately, he knew to put on a veil and not allow his face to be exposed in front of others.
When the curtain was lifted, some gossip drifted into his ears. Feng Yu Heng heard people discussing her beautiful imperial carriage: "Look, whose carriage is this? It's actually so beautiful? "
"It looks like it should be a woman sitting in it. To have such a status in the capital, it must be Princess Wu Yang. She is the only princess in the current imperial family. Her status is naturally noble, and she is doted on. "
"That's not true!" Someone raised a different opinion, "It's natural that Princess Wu Yang is doted on, but to say that Princess Wu Yang is the only one in the capital that can sit in this sort of imperial carriage, that's not necessarily the case. Don't forget that there is also an imperial daughter, Princess Ji An!"
