Chapter 146 Love But Not Obtained

The next day, Feng Shenyu went to the county magistrate's mansion, and Wang Qingan was waiting at the door early.

Seeing Feng Shenyu coming, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Your humble servant Wang Qing'an greets the Right Prime Minister."

Feng Shenyu didn't bother to excuse himself, but walked right past him, bringing up a gust of cold wind, and strode into the mansion with his head held high.

Wang Qing'an looked up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly followed from behind.

After everyone sat down, Wang Qingan waved his hand.

Four people were brought in from outside.

They are Wang Qinrui, Wang Qinlan, the maid Qiuju, and the monk.

"They are the only ones involved. The Right Prime Minister can conduct another trial."

Feng Shenyu glanced at the cautious Wang Qingan:

"No.

I came here to see the person who started this incident and what grudge he has against me."

Wang Qingan pointed at Wang Qinlan, who was wearing a navy blue dress, and said:

"This is my eldest daughter."

Feng Shenyu glanced at Wang Qinlan and saw that she was looking at him with an obsessed and greedy look.

It seems like his brain is not normal...

After saying this, Wang Qing'an suddenly felt ashamed and didn't know how to continue.

With a worried look on his face, he said, "Ah, your humble servant...your humble servant...I don't know how to start..."

Seeing this, Ning stepped forward and said:

"Right Prime Minister, this matter involves my two younger sisters, so I'll have to speak for them."

Feng Shenyu had met Ning yesterday and knew that she was Ning Yuanshan's granddaughter, so he nodded.

"Twenty years ago, when the Right Prime Minister was seven years old, he attended a spring banquet at the home of Cui Wei, the then county magistrate.

I saved a little girl from a tree that day, do you remember, Right Prime Minister?"

Feng Shenyu frowned after hearing this, then shook his head.

"That girl is my eldest sister.

Since that day, my elder sister has never forgotten you, Right Prime Minister.

So that year she attended all the parties where she might meet you, but she saw you very few times.

The following year, the right prime minister went to the capital to study and stayed there for ten years.

When he returns again, he is like the new top scholar returning home to worship his ancestors.

That day, the Right Prime Minister was wearing a red robe and riding a horse through the long street. When I, the eldest sister, saw you again, I became even more obsessed with you and couldn't extricate myself.

Later, when the time came for marriage, he begged his family to help him find a husband.

Not to mention that my second sister and your Erlang were already engaged at that time.

Let’s just say that at that time, the family backgrounds of our two families were no longer equal.

You are the new top scholar, the last disciple of the old Grand Tutor, and you have a say in both His Majesty and the late Emperor.

We, the Wang family, are merely a fifth-rank official. How can we discuss marriage with you?

Therefore, the parents forced the eldest sister to marry into the Zhao family and married her off a year later.

But the Zhao family didn't treat her well, which made her even more depressed.

She has been asking about you over the years, and knowing that you have never been married, she has been quiet.

But not long ago I heard that you and Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang are getting married soon.

He seemed to be possessed and went home to instigate his second sister to do such a thing.

This matter is the fault of my Wang family. If the Right Prime Minister wants to punish us, we will accept it.

However, Your Majesty has already issued a clear decree to reprimand my father, demoting him three ranks. I hope the Right Prime Minister will grant a lighter punishment for the sake of my second sister's child."

After hearing this conversation, Feng Shenyu turned around and looked at Wang Qinlan in disbelief.

Wang Qinlan saw Feng Shenyu looking at him and said with a smile:

"Fengshenyu, is it really you?

I haven't been this close to you since I was seven years old.

Now that you can look me straight in the eye, I will be content even if I die."

When Ning heard this, her heart began to beat wildly, and she quickly shouted:

"Sister, stop saying these stupid things."

Wang Qinlan looked at Ning and said, "What do you know?

In this life, I only want to marry Feng Shenyu. He is my sweetheart and the moon in the sky.

During the years I've been married to Zhao Puji, every day has been a living hell.

The reason why I have been able to survive until now is because he has never been married.

As long as he is not married, I still have hope. Even if one day I have to be a slave or a servant beside him, I will be willing to do so."

After hearing Wang Qinlan's words, the Wang family felt very uncomfortable.

After hearing this, Yan Tai, Yu Zhan and others felt that Wang Qinlan was incomprehensible.

You like my husband, so you come to ruin his life?

The problem is that my husband doesn’t even know who you are!

Is there something wrong with your brain...

Only Feng Shenyu felt as if he had been licked by a toad, and felt disgusted.

Mrs. Wang burst into tears after hearing Wang Qinlan's words. She said, "The child has had a hard life over the years..."

Feng Shenyu looked at Wang Qinlan coldly and said, "I don't know what you mean."

Wang Qinlan still looked at Fengshenyu with a smile after hearing this:

"You are like the moon in the sky, the flower in the high ridge. How can you look down on me? I know."

Wang Zhen felt sorry for her misfortune and was angry at her for not fighting back: "I know you still do these things, and you implicate my second sister for no reason."

Wang Qinlan didn't even glance at Wang Zhen, still staring at Fengshenyu in fascination.

"So, if I can't get someone in this life, no one else can get him."

After saying that, a cold light flashed in Wang Qinlan's hand, and he suddenly jumped up and pounced towards Feng Shenyu.

Yu Zhan was quick-witted and kicked the man out.

Yu Zhan reacted instinctively to this kick and struck with all his strength.

Wang Qinlan was kicked out and hit the wall hard, leaving a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Everyone was shocked by this sudden change.

Wang Qingan reacted and his first thought was: It's over, it's over... If I assassinate the right prime minister, my whole family will be finished...

Feng Shenyu stood up angrily and looked at Wang Qinlan as if he was looking at a dead person.

"I won't kill a woman. You can end it yourself. Don't implicate your father and brother."

After Feng Shenyu finished speaking, he turned and walked out.

Mrs. Wang wanted to go forward to help Wang Qinlan, but was stopped by Wang Zhen.

After hearing what Feng Shenyu said, Wang Qinlan laughed and blood gradually flowed out of his mouth.

"If you can finally arrange a death for me, that would be... that would be... good."

After saying that, Wang Qinlan picked up the dagger in his hand and stabbed it hard into his heart.

Seeing this, Madam Wang shrieked, "Lan'er..."

He broke free from Wang Zhen's restraint, rushed over, and helped Wang Qinlan up.

Wang Qinlan murmured, "Come...come...in this world...don't...meet me..."

After saying that, his whole body went limp and he closed his eyes.

Before Feng Shenyu walked out of the courtyard of the county magistrate's mansion, he heard a shrill voice inside.

"Lan'er...my daughter..."

Wang Qingan felt a slight pain in his heart when he saw this, and he said with tears streaming down his face:

"Bad fate...bad fate..."

After Feng Shenyu returned home, Feng Zongwen went to his house to personally invite him back home.

Mrs. Zhong cooked a meal herself.

The four of them sat at the table. Feng Jinyu kept his head down and didn't dare to breathe.

The only voices at the table were Feng Zongwen and Feng Shenyu talking. Most of the time, it was Feng Zongwen who was talking, with Feng Shenyu occasionally saying a word.

Mrs. Zhong kept picking up food for Feng Shenyu without saying anything.

Feng Shenyu saw that the green beans, red lotus root, shrimps and beef in the bowl were all his favorite foods.

There were a lot of dishes on the table, but there was only one plate of water celery that he didn't like, and it was placed the farthest away from him.

Feng Shenyu knew that his father liked to eat water celery.

Feng Shenyu couldn't remember what his mother liked to eat...

The four of them finished the meal awkwardly, and Feng Shenyu said:

"I will return to Beijing early tomorrow morning."

Mrs. Zhong was stunned when she heard this, opened her mouth, but said nothing in the end.

Feng Zongwen patted his chest and promised: "Dalang, I will not go to the mountains before your wedding. I will live in Chunhui Hall.

Don't worry at home, I will keep a close eye on everyone."

Feng Shenyu nodded slightly.

The next morning, Feng Shenyu and his group set out at dawn.

After leaving the city gate, Feng Shenyu looked back and suddenly saw two people standing on the city wall, one of whom was shorter and waving at him.

They are Fengzong Wenhe Zhong.

Feng Shenyu looked at his parents and suddenly remembered the meal last night. His mother was wrong, but was he not wrong?

Over the years, I have no idea what my mother likes to eat, wear, or use.

Thinking of this, I sighed inwardly.

Feng Shenyu raised his hand and waved it vigorously towards Zhong.

Seeing this, Zhong's tears welled up in her eyes...
