Bai Fu Rong told Feng Yu Heng that she wanted to return to the Bai manor. After all, that was her home. She had already recovered and could not continue to be disturbed in the imperial daughter's manor.
This matter was within Feng Yu Heng's expectations, and she did not stop her. First, Fu Rong returning home was a very normal thing. Second, she was preparing to leave the capital for Ji 'an Prefecture. She had no time to take care of this matter. She just said to Bai Fu Rong: "You can go home, but have craftsman Bai also leave the palace! At this point, the matters in the palace have already been investigated to the point that nothing can be found. You father and daughter have not lived together for a long time. You should enjoy some familial happiness. "
This matter was settled like this. That evening, Wang Chuan personally sent Bai Fu Rong back to the Bai manor. As for Craftsman Bai, he received the news and left the palace the next day to return to the manor. The father and daughter had a good new year.
Feng Yu Heng originally wanted to go to the Wen Xuan Palace on the third day of the first month and bring Zirui along. No matter what was said, she had to pay a visit to Lord Wen Xuan and the princess. The eight gifts that needed to be brought had already been prepared, but just as they were loading the carriage, she changed her mind. She had the driver unload the things and would not go.
Wang Chuan and Huang Quan were puzzled and asked her: "Young miss, what happened?" Even Zirui furrowed his brow in confusion.
Feng Yu Heng wrapped her arm around Zirui's shoulder and helplessly said: "I won't go. Ever since the previous emperor's time, Lord Wen Xuan has stopped caring about the matters of the court to avoid suspicion. Now, he is even lighter. Now that I have gotten into this mess with the old officials of the Eighth Prince's faction, it would be best if I don't go and cause trouble for the prince and princess. Listen well. " While saying this, she apologetically patted Zirui's shoulder then said: "Zirui, look, in the capital, there will always be this sort of trouble. Elder sister is just bringing you along, and I need to be overcautious. I really don't have any integrity. But there's nothing we can do about it. We're not afraid of anything, but we can't cause trouble for those who are good to us, right? "
Zirui nodded. "I understand what Elder Sister is saying. Zirui was also present at the palace banquet that day and saw everything clearly. But Zirui is too young, and his words carry little weight. At that time, he won't be able to speak up for Big Sister. I'm afraid that people will use this as an excuse to say that Big Sister didn't educate Zirui well. "
Feng Yu Heng laughed in spite of herself. She could only sigh at the fact that such a young child already knew so much. Other people's children would be happy to be sensible, but she always felt sad. To her, Zirui was a primary school student at the age where he should be the most lively and playful. If she had time, she should take this child to the suburbs more often to see the snowy mountains in winter, the green grass in spring and autumn, and the scorching sun in summer. However, under the current situation and her status, she had no choice but to send the child to the Academy in Xiao Zhou. She had no choice.
She asked Zirui, "Do you blame Big Sister?"
Zirui didn't understand. "Why would I blame Big Sister? Big Sister is so good. Zirui can't even wait to like Big Sister. Why would I blame you? "
Feng Yu Heng pulled him into her own room and sat down. After drinking some tea from the servants, she said: "Right now, it's still the new year. Normally speaking, I should be bringing you around. We'll go around the various manors. We'll also be visiting your grandfather's house next door. But you see, things are rushing forward day by day. It's all piled up in the past few days. It always feels like there's no end to it. In the blink of an eye, it's already the third day of the New Year, but we haven't gone anywhere. "
Hearing her words, Zirui laughed. As he laughed, he said to her, "Going out to pay New Year's greetings is something that children do. Zirui isn't a child. In three years, he'll be able to participate in the county-level exam! Zirui knew that everything his sister did was reasonable. However, there was one thing that he didn't understand. Why did Big Sister say that things were piled up in the past few days? Is Big Sister in a hurry? "
Feng Yu Heng knew that she couldn't hide it from this child. She also didn't want to hide it. He would find out sooner or later. Thus, she told him, "Because Big Sister will be leaving the capital in a while. I'll be going to the fief that I haven't been to yet. I'll be leaving around the fifteenth day of the New Year. When the time comes, Zirui can live in your grandfather's house. Is that okay?"
"Big Sister is leaving?" He had just said that he wasn't a child, but once he heard that Feng Yu Heng wouldn't be home to celebrate the fifteenth day of the New Year, this little brat couldn't sit still. He suddenly stood up and angrily said, "Why do I have to leave? Zirui heard that the fief is a barren land. It hasn't been developed and doesn't even have a proper residence. Why does Big Sister have to suffer there? Is it because those old fellows at the palace banquet forced you? But they only said that Big Sister can't enter the palace. They didn't say that Big Sister can't stay in the capital! "
Feng Yu Heng repeatedly comforted him, "No, it's not what you think. Big Sister isn't going to the fief to avoid disaster. It's because that fief originally belonged to us. We can't let it sit idle and need to use it. Moreover, that place isn't as barren as you said. Did you forget that Big Sister has a jade mine? Coincidentally, that jade mine is near Ji 'an's fief. After mining for so long, Big Sister still hasn't been there. Don't you think we should go take a look? "
"But there's no need to leave in such a hurry." Zirui frowned. He still felt that something wasn't right, "You said you're going to take a look, but why does Zirui feel that Big Sister has the intention of staying there for a long time?"
"Not for a long time, but we still need to start building the residence that should be built there." She told Zirui, "Perhaps you don't understand the concept of a fief. It means that that piece of land completely belongs to us. We don't need to pay taxes to the imperial court. The shops that operate on our territory also have to pay taxes to us. Unlike the prefectures and prefectures, who are only local officials, we're equivalent to … "She lowered her voice," We're equivalent to local emperors. Think about it! We're restricted everywhere in the capital, but we're free and unfettered there. Why not? Big Sister won't always stay there. She's just going there to build it. When everything is on the right track, Big Sister will still come back. "
Hearing Feng Yu Heng say this, Zi Rui finally let out a sigh of relief. He did some mental calculations then said: "Elder sister's words are reasonable. That sort of place needs to be put to good use. It definitely can't be left to waste. It's a pity that Zirui has to go back to Xiao Zhou to study after the first month. Seventh Brother Big Brother said that studying and practicing martial arts is the most important thing right now. We can't delay our main work because of other things. Otherwise, even if I grow up in the future, I won't be of much help to Big Sister. Big Sister can go there with peace of mind. After Big Sister leaves the capital, Zirui will live in Maternal Grandfather's home. You don't have to worry about me. "
Finally being able to convince this child, Feng Yu Heng let out a sigh of relief. Thinking a little more, she decided to send Zi Rui to the Yao manor to play. There were many older cousins over there, so there would be one that could accompany him. Zirui was very happy with this arrangement. He kept telling her, "Then I'll eat dinner at Maternal Grandfather's home. Big Sister doesn't have to worry about me."
Feng Yu Heng smiled as she watched the child run out. She really didn't worry about him. In the capital, there were only three places that she could be at ease in. Yao Fu, Imperial Palace Yu, and Chun Wang Fu. However, thinking about the matter of going to the fief, it wasn't as easy as she made it sound. It wasn't as simple as she made it sound.
If it was just for the sake of building a fief and accumulating wealth for herself, Feng Yu Heng would happily take care of this matter, but now, there was a bit of a grudge between her and the eighth prince's faction. However, she understood that even if she was angry, going to the fief was the best choice. Because the fief that belonged to her was in the southwest of Yun Tian Fu's Yu Zhou. It was a county, about the size of two counties. It wasn't even as big as a province. Her jade mine was also nearby. Most importantly, if Xuan Tianming was going to fight in the South after the New Year, if the Eighth Prince had done something behind the scenes with the rations and military supplies, then she had to think of a way to make up for it. After all, the one going to the battlefield to kill the enemy was Xuan Tianming. This kind of thing couldn't wait. She had to make sure that some of the logistics could keep up. And going to the South from the fief was much closer than going to the capital. It also wouldn't attract as much attention as going to the capital. There also weren't many people staring at her. She could do whatever she wanted. It was much freer than going to the capital.
Feng Yu Heng had already made up her mind. These days, she had been preparing to go to the fief. The Hundred Herb Hall was off from the first day of the new year to the fifth day. She was going to call Wang Lin and Qing Yu over to arrange things. The Hundred Herb Hall had to be closed, it had to be closed. She really wanted to see what would happen to the capital, which had been blessed by the Hundred Herb Hall for more than two years, now that the Hundred Herb Hall was gone.
On the evening of the third day of the New Year, she originally planned to go to the Yao Manor to have dinner. It was too rude of her to not even greet her relatives during the New Year. But fortunately, the Yao Manor was well aware of what happened at the palace banquet on the first day of the New Year. They knew that she had a lot of things to do these days, so they didn't blame her. Instead, Madam Xu gave her a lot of things. They were afraid that she didn't prepare enough and would lose out in terms of food.
Unfortunately, just as she lifted her foot, before she could even leave the courtyard, she saw a servant girl leading Xuan Tianming over. The two of them bumped into each other.
"Where are you going?" Xuan Tianming grabbed her arm and dragged her back. "I have something to talk to you about. No matter where you're going, don't go."
Feng Yu Heng was helpless. "I'm just going to the Yao Manor next door for dinner. Do you have something urgent to talk to me about?"
Xuan Tianming didn't say much, but dragged her all the way to the medicine room in her courtyard. Everyone in the imperial daughter's manor knew that as long as their young miss entered the medicine room, it was a secret place. No one was allowed to enter. No matter how urgent the matter was, even if the sky collapsed, they would have to wait outside. Of course, aside from two people, one was the Ninth Prince, and the other was divine doctor Yao.
The two entered the medicine room, and Wang Chuan quickly closed the door from the outside. He and Huang Quan personally stood guard. Inside, Xuan Tianming did not waste any words, directly saying: "The Sheng Palace's entire treasury has been stolen. It was you who did it, right!"
Feng Yu Heng rolled her eyes, "Why did you come directly to my place? And you said it so confidently! "
Xuan Tianming also rolled his eyes back at her, saying: "Nonsense. I heard that it was an entire cave full of treasures that mysteriously disappeared in one night, and the Sheng Palace did not show any signs of moving the treasures out of the palace. With so many things, even if they were to move them, it would take half a night, right? Moreover, they disappeared without a trace. Aside from you, who else would do such a thing? "
Very well! She facepalmed, "If you can think of this, then my maternal grandfather must have thought of it as well. I originally wanted to give you a pleasant surprise, but you came looking for it yourself. How boring. " As she spoke, she pulled Xuan Tianming's hand. Her right hand touched her left wrist, and the two immediately disappeared into the medicine room …
