The final decision that the soldiers made was to tie up Feng Jin Yuan and send him to Sha Ping City. As for Yao shi, she would immediately go to a coffin shop to buy a coffin and bring it back.
Ji Ling Tian was given a fright by Feng Jin Yuan's words. In addition to Yao shi's death, he realized that he was truly done for this time. Thus he stood there while trembling, waiting to be dealt with.
The soldiers did not know how to deal with him, thus they simply tied him up and sent him back to Sha Ping City. This included the soldier that had killed him.
Feng Jin Yuan still had some conscience. When Yao shi was sent to the government office, he had personally carried her in. He had even tidied up her hair and clothes. The wound on her chest had also been slightly treated by a doctor so that it would not continue to bleed. He then personally closed the lid of the coffin and kowtowed outside.
His actions were so sincere that even the soldiers couldn't help but sigh when they saw it.
When they set out, Feng Jin Yuan's upper body was tied up once more. Just like that, he looked at Yao shi's coffin and walked to the side. His mind was filled with endless thoughts, and a thick sense of regret followed. Tears began to fall uncontrollably.
Just how foolish had he been in the past! He had caused trouble for Yao shi and Feng Yu Heng time and time again. He would not listen to anyone's advice. It was as though his eyes had been blinded, as he could not see anything at all. Thinking about how he was the dignified left prime minister and the person that had once taken the position of top scholar, his mind was top-notch. How could he be so foolish when dealing with family matters?
Feng Jin Yuan had a feeling that he might have been possessed over the past few years. Otherwise, how could he have been so stubborn? Even the members of the Feng family had been possessed, as they all began to reject Yao shi's branch; however, they did not know that once they had chosen to get close, they would have a bright future! Unfortunately, the Feng manor had given up on this bright future under his leadership. Instead, they had walked down a narrow path. In the end, everyone had died.
But fortunately, aside from Chen Yu, his daughters were still alive. Heng Heng, Xiang Rong and Fen Dai were still alive. An shi was also fine. This finally allowed him to see a bit of hope. He was just a little worried about Fen Dai's personality. Who knew when she would anger her second sister and try to kill her. Although the fifth prince treated Fen Dai well, he feared that he would not be able to deal with Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming.
Feng Jin Yuan was a little anxious. He really wanted to return to the capital to tell Fen Dai that she absolutely must not cause trouble for her second sister. There were not many people left in the Feng family. If the two sisters could live well and get along well, there would still be good days ahead. Fen Dai was the future official princess of the fifth prince. He could see that the fifth prince was sincere towards Fen Dai. As long as Fen Dai did not do anything with Feng Yu Heng, as long as Fen Dai was able to sincerely acknowledge that second sister, even if the males of the Feng family died, the females would be able to live in glory. It would not be to the point where he would be unable to feel at ease in the underworld.
That's right, Feng Jin Yuan knew that he would not live for long. It was already a miracle that he was still alive after courting death for so long. Now that he thought about it, in the past, Feng Yu Heng really gave him a lot of face because he was her biological father. At least she didn't kill him with her own hands. As for him, he did not know how to be grateful. Instead, he did not have enough trouble in the capital, so he came to the South. This time, he could not escape. Falling into the Ninth Prince's hands, he could die in any number of ways. The Ninth Prince definitely would not be merciful.
Feng Jin Yuan retracted his gaze from the coffin and thought to himself that if he died, so be it. He and Yao shi were his first wives. If they could both die in the South, being buried together would be pretty good. Either way, it would be a reunion. In his next life, if they could meet again, he would definitely treat her well and would not marry anyone else.
On the way from Ji 'an Prefecture to Lan Zhou, Feng Yu Heng sat in her carriage. She had been sleeping with her eyes closed; however, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest. That sort of pain was as though someone had fiercely stabbed her with a knife. It came suddenly, and there was no warning. The pain was unbearable, as she suddenly fell from her seat and rolled to the ground of the carriage.
This "thump" sound gave Huang Quan and Wang Chuan a fright. Even Ban Zou, who was driving the carriage, immediately stopped it. He then lifted the curtain and entered. He immediately saw Feng Yu Heng lying on the ground with a pale face.
For an instant, he thought that his master had fallen asleep and accidentally fell. If that was truly the case, he could still tease her a little. But his thinking was too simple. Based on Feng Yu Heng's abilities, even if she was sleeping soundly, it was impossible for her to fall to the ground. What's more, his pale face and the hand that was clutching his chest were clear signs that something had happened.
The three quickly helped Feng Yu Heng up and placed her back in her seat. Wang Chuan even lowered the partition under the seat, wanting to let Feng Yu Heng lie down for a while. Ban Zou anxiously asked: "What exactly happened?"
The two servant girls shook their heads. Neither of them knew what had happened. Huang Quan said: "We also don't know why, but young miss suddenly fell." After saying this, he looked at Feng Yu Heng. He saw that her eyes were tightly shut and her brows were tightly knitted together. Her expression was one of extreme pain, and the sweat on her forehead dripped down like water droplets. "Young miss." Huang Quan was a little worried. He helped her wipe away her sweat while gently calling her: "Young miss, what happened to you?"
The sudden pain made it hard for Feng Yu Heng to breathe. It was as if the knife in her heart had been stabbed and pulled out. That kind of feeling was truly heart-piercing and bone-piercing, but it was also connected to her nerves. In a daze, she felt as if she was about to faint. Her vision was blurry, and even if she forcefully opened her eyes, she still could not see anything.
When the pain reached its peak, she was truly afraid. It was as if her soul was about to be separated from her body and torn apart. She even wondered if this body was not hers to begin with. After occupying it for so many years, was her soul finally about to be chased out? If that really was the case, even if she was a godly doctor, she would not be able to reverse the situation. She could only watch as she died once again.
Huang Quan's shouts allowed her symptoms to ease a little. She forced herself to calm down and did her best to suppress the pain that was no longer as heart-piercing as before. In addition, Ban Zou and Wang Chuan were still constantly talking to her. Finally, her consciousness began to gradually recover. Her vision became a little clearer, and she was able to distinguish the faces of the servants.
Feng Yu Heng let out a sigh of relief. She felt as if she had survived a disaster. She subconsciously reached out and did not know who she had grabbed. She used the force to get up, but she heard Ban Zou's voice: "It's best if you don't get up. Lie down for a while!"
Only then did she realize that the person she had grabbed was Ban Zou, but she shook her head: "No, the more I lie down, the more confused I become. I don't want to fall asleep and never wake up again."
"Bah, bah, bah!" Ban Zou did not like hearing these words at all, but he still grabbed her upper arms with both hands and helped her up so that she could lean against the soft cushion behind her. "What exactly happened?" He did not understand medicine, but a thought appeared in his mind: "Could it be that she was poisoned? What kind of person could use poison so skillfully? "
Wang Chuan, however, shook his head and said: "Impossible. We have been very careful on the way here. Moreover, young miss is a doctor herself. It's impossible for her to not know that she was poisoned. If there was a poison expert like that, we would not have been able to live until today. Young miss would not have gotten better in the blink of an eye. "
Feng Yu Heng agreed with this first: "Wang Chuan is right. It's impossible for me to have been poisoned. I just suddenly felt an intense pain in my chest. I don't know why, but it was as if someone had stabbed me with a knife and pulled it out. It was unbearable." While she spoke, she pressed down on her chest. It was very strange — — "Right now, it's much better. It doesn't hurt anymore."
The three people were very flabbergasted. Wang Chuan suggested that they rest, but Feng Yu Heng insisted on continuing on their journey. She said: "If we want to rest, we can rest when we reach the town up ahead. I'm fine. It's better for us to hurry on our journey than anything else. My illness doesn't seem to have been inflicted by someone else. It seems to have been triggered by my heart. It's hard to explain it to you guys. Generally speaking, it's just a mental illness. "
The three people really did not understand, but Ban Zou agreed with Feng Yu Heng's words: "Right now, we're walking in the middle of an official road. There are no villages ahead or shops behind us. It's not a place to rest. If we keep going forward, we'll reach a county town in less than half a day. We can rest at the county town and invite a doctor to take a look. Everyone says that doctors cannot treat themselves. You can't just check your own pulse to diagnose your illness. That doesn't sound reliable. "After he finished speaking, he confirmed with Feng Yu Heng:" You're really fine? "
Feng Yu Heng nodded: "I'm fine. Hurry on. Getting to that county town as soon as possible is most important."
Ban Zou complied and left. Huang Quan and Wang Chuan, however, did not feel at ease with Feng Yu Heng sitting like before. They simply had her sit inside. The two of them sitting side by side on the outside would block her. This would prevent her from falling down again.
Feng Yu Heng did not say anything and snuggled a little deeper. She then closed her eyes and continued to sleep; however, her mood was like boiling water that continued to churn.
Her chest was in so much pain. Was it a heart attack? Impossible. She had already done a full body checkup on herself. She was very healthy. Moreover, her body was still so young. The Yao family and the Feng family did not have a history of heart disease. It was impossible for her to have that sort of illness.
There was a feeling that the pain just now seemed to have come from another person far away, and that person … everyone said that a mother and child's hearts were connected. Could it be that something had happened to Yao shi? Although the feelings between her and Yao shi had already reached the end, Yao shi was still this body's mother. This body had burrowed out of Yao shi's stomach. If something had happened to Yao shi, it was not impossible for this body to have some sort of telepathy.
Feng Yu Heng guessed to herself. She did not know what exactly had happened to Yao shi. Was this related to Xuan Tianming?
The servants had been paying attention to her situation, fearing that her illness would suddenly act up again. But when they arrived at that small county town, Feng Yu Heng was like a normal person. They did not see any abnormalities. It was just that she was depressed the entire way. Her face was very ugly, making the three of them not dare to ask anything.
The group settled down in an inn, and Huang Quan called for a doctor. The doctor checked her pulse for a long time but was unable to find anything. In the end, he could only say that she had been fatigued from the journey and would be fine after some rest. But Ban Zou and the others were still worried. They kept watch over her for the entire night. On the second day, Feng Yu Heng energetically told them: "Full speed ahead. When we reach Luo Province, we will begin purchasing supplies!" Only then did they feel at ease.
In the desert to the South, Feng Jin Yuan's group passed through the South and struggled to walk toward Sha Ping City. They only arrived at Sha Ping City in the middle of the night.
Because the weather was hot, Yao shi's corpse began to give off the smell of decay. As Feng Jin Yuan saw it, it was the smell of death …
