After the Marquis' wife Qin who fainted at every turn, the prince Shen Feng became the second master in the Marquis of Jinyang's mansion to faint.
Fortunately, the doctor in the mansion was very experienced in treating this kind of symptoms. After a few silver needles, the person lying on the bed woke up slowly.
"What day is today?"
This was the first sentence Shen Feng spoke.
The doctor who was checking his pulse answered, "My Lord, today is the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month."
"Which year?" Shen Feng asked again.
The doctor's hand, which had just been raised, fell back in an instant.
He didn't insert the silver needle into the head just now. Why did it seem that the prince became more confused after waking up? Could it be that the dizziness left some sequelae?
The doctor examined the patient in silence, and Chen Feng then asked, "Has the news of the defeat of the Northern Barbarians come back?"
The doctor who was examining the patient's pulse suddenly realized, "So the prince fainted from joy after hearing this great news?"
"..." Shen Feng leaned weakly against the head of the bed and waved his hand, "This prince is not sick, you go down first."
After sending everyone in the bedroom away, Shen Feng finally couldn't help but frown.
He felt like a bereaved person, so desperate that he could hardly breathe.
Instead of waiting to attack the capital nine years later, the Northern Barbarians were actually defeated by the Dayong.
The Chanyu has died, and Qiulin Nanxing, who was supposed to replace the Chanyu, was executed by the angry royal family of the Huyan tribe because his plot to assassinate the Chanyu was exposed.
The Northern Barbarians were divided into pieces, and took the initiative to sign a truce agreement with Dayong and presented a large amount of treasures.
Within ten years, the Northern Barbarians will no longer be a threat.
All these events and pieces of news seemed to indicate that Dayong would prosper and good days would come for the people of Dayong.
But Shen Feng couldn't feel happy at all.
Ever since he had that prophetic dream and knew what would happen in the next few years, he began to regard himself as the son of destiny and believed that he would be granted a title of nobility and become a prime minister in the future.
He placed all his "treasures" on the Queen Mother and Qiu Linnanxing, who he thought would have the last laugh.
He even did not hesitate to offend the Second Prince and Concubine Ling for this.
But what about now?
Qiulin Nanxing is dead, leaving only the empress dowager. No matter how high her position is, she is just a woman in the harem. Can she become emperor herself?
He had bet on the wrong person!
But now it's too late to switch to someone else's camp.
As for the Second Prince, he had already offended someone deeply because of Xue Linglong's incident.
As for the powerful King You in the North...
I heard that King You rescued Princess Changning and had a very good personal relationship with Duke Xu's Mansion. Wasn't his ex-wife, who he had already divorced, the cousin of Duke Xu's Mansion?
When the Wei family got into trouble, the Jinyang Marquis's Mansion added insult to injury. His mother Qin used the excuse of helping to use connections to defraud money first, and then he married a concubine and insulted his wife. Either of them is unforgivable.
It is impossible for the Wei family to repair their relationship with the Jinyang Marquis' Mansion, and it is also impossible for the Xuguogong Mansion, which has a close relationship with the Wei family, to pay any attention to him.
As for going directly to King You to surrender...
After working under the Queen Mother for a few months, Shen Feng didn't learn anything else, but his mind became much smarter. He knew that he had no way to get close to King You and was not qualified to be valued by King You.
Unless he really makes the firearm that Xue Linglong mentioned.
“Bang, bang.”
Someone outside was knocking on the door rudely.
The servant at the door stopped her, "Madam, the prince is ill and is recuperating. He has specifically ordered that no one else be allowed to come in and disturb him."
"Is this lady a bystander? Get out of the way!"
The people outside were coming in aggressively, and the servant couldn't stop them, so he had to follow them in, "Master, the Master's wife..."
Xue Linglong was furious at this time. Even though she came here alone without her maid, she still looked very imposing.
Seeing her aggressive look, Shen Feng guessed that she was going to call him to account.
As expected, Xue Linglong smashed the "Clairvoyance" that the craftsman had just modified to the ground with a "bang".
“Chen Feng, didn’t you say that they are the ones who have the last laugh?”
"How come such news is spreading now?"
"How many people have we offended in order to get close to them? What will we do if that person completely loses power in the future?"
"If I had known that you didn't have a single reliable word, I shouldn't have followed you back to the Marquis of Jinyang's Mansion!"
It's the same rhetoric again.
Shen Feng took a deep breath and rubbed his brows painfully.
Xue Linglong's incessant complaints had worn away the last bit of love in his heart.
Looking at the woman in front of him now, her face is still the same, and her figure is even better than before, but there is not a single bit of the look he loves in her. When he looks closely, he finds her face hideous.
"Shut up!"
Shen Feng shouted coldly, and Xue Linglong froze, staring at Shen Feng in disbelief, "You dare to yell at me?"
"Chen Feng, I want to divorce you! You return all the dowry that I brought into the Marquis' Mansion, and I will leave your Jinyang Marquis' Mansion now!"
"Oh, you can divorce me just by saying so?" Chen Feng sneered, "Xue Linglong, without me, you are just a merchant girl!"
The two had a big quarrel and parted on bad terms.
Xue Linglong sat under the withered grape vines in Qifengyuan, thinking about her way out.
When they were arguing just now, she said she wanted to take back her dowry and divorce, but she knew that this was not so easy. After all, the Marquis of Jinyang's Mansion was still a marquisate with the support of such a title, and she had no one to rely on. How could she compete with the Marquis of Jinyang's Mansion?
Perhaps, she could find another support for herself.
