That meal was the most uncomfortable meal Wen Yi had ever had in her life.
But this was just the beginning. For the rest of her life, every meal she ate would be unpleasant, even more unpleasant than this one.
That night, Feng Yinzhen returned to the Yangxin Palace to meet with ministers, and Concubine Hua took Wen Yi to the Qixiang Palace.
Concubine Jing was a little worried, so she followed along. Feng Jinyu was also worried about Concubine Jing, so she went along with them.
Concubine Li had obviously received the news long ago and was waiting at the door early. As soon as she saw everyone, she went to greet them.
Several people started talking excitedly.
Concubine Li pulled Wen Yi in with a look of joy, and kept saying things like, "My dear, you've suffered so much. Concubine Li will definitely take good care of you in the future."
It looked very intimate, as if Wen Yi was her biological daughter.
Wen Yi, however, couldn't laugh at all. She just let Concubine Li rub her body woodenly, thanked her woodenly, and then let Concubine Li take her to see the cleaned room.
Feng Xunlu was even more well-behaved and sensible. He kept calling her "Sister Wen Yi" and "That's great. We have been together in the past and we can always be together in the future."
Concubine Hua and Concubine Jing were both very satisfied and praised Concubine Li highly.
She was praised for being a virtuous woman and a good parent. Lu'er was educated so well, and Wen Yi would definitely be as well-behaved and sensible as Lu'er if she followed her.
Concubine Li immediately blushed and said modestly that the ladies were too kind.
Now that the women all had their own children, they immediately pulled each other to sit down and talked about parenting while drinking tea.
Wen Yi finally escaped from an extremely uncomfortable situation temporarily. She found an excuse to send Feng Xunlu away to get something, and then, while no one was around, she grabbed Feng Jinyu's sleeve and screamed with red eyes.
"Third brother, don't you love Wen Yi anymore? You knew that Wen Yi wanted to follow Fang Cheng, and you knew that Wen Yi had a grudge against Li Guiren and Feng Xunlu. You put me in Qixiang Palace because you wanted me to have a bad life.
Third brother, you have always been Wen Yi's most beloved brother. How could you treat Wen Yi like this? "
"Wen Yi, what are you talking about? Third Brother has always loved you dearly. It's because of that love that he allowed you to return to where you grew up and continue living here with Empress Li and Lu'er."
Feng Jinyu's face remained the same, gentle as jade.
Wen Yi's tears rolled down.
"Third brother, you are not loving me at all, you are clearly pushing me into the fire pit.
But Third Brother, I don't understand why you would do this? Wen Yi clearly respects and loves you so much, and cares about you. Even if you don't want to be good to Wen Yi, you can't hurt Wen Yi like this.
Is it because of that little bitch Feng Wanwan? Just because I pinched her neck, you..."
"Shut up! If you dare to speak rudely to this little sister again, don't blame me for killing you!"
Feng Jinyu's expression suddenly changed, and he let out a low growl. His gentle face was clouded with gloom in an instant.
Wen Yi was stared at by those cold eyes and was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth and dared not say another word.
But I feel more certain in my heart.
After Concubine Hua and Concubine Jing left together, Qixiang Palace returned to peace. Wen Yi curled up on the large carved bed. Although she was covered with a soft quilt, she felt cold and stiff all over, even more uneasy than when she was in the West Third Building.
I can't sleep at all.
She opened her eyes, and the window turned from black to a bright blue color. She heard one or two clear cuckoo calls, and her dazed eyes instantly came alive.
The originally stiff body seemed to be instantly injected with soul, and sat up with a whoosh.
Seeing that it was quiet and deserted, Wen Yi threw on a coat and jumped out of bed. Without even putting on shoes, she slipped out barefoot, following the sound of the cuckoo, and rushed to the back door.
Sure enough, I saw a familiar figure there.
"aunt!"
Wen Yi rushed over and threw herself into the man's arms, tears gushing out of her eyes, filled with surprise and grievance.
"Aunt, I'm finally able to see you again. Wen Yi is so happy, but Aunt, Wen Yi is not up to the task you gave me."
"Good boy, I know you've tried your best, but none of us expected such a change to happen. It all happened for a reason, so don't take it to heart.
We still have a long time to live and many opportunities ahead of us, so there is no need to rush into this moment."
The man's palm covered Wen Yi's head, gently comforting her.
Wen Yi instantly felt relieved, but also felt even more guilty. She wiped away her tears and said seriously.
"Aunt, please rest assured. Wen Yi will work harder in the future and seize every opportunity to complete the tasks you give her. Wen Yi will never let you down again."
"That's right, Auntie has always known that Wen Yi is a very capable child who can always accomplish things that others can't.
Auntie trusts Wen Yi very much."
The corners of the man's lips curved, and his smile became softer.
Wen Yi nodded seriously, then frowned.
"Aunt, although this mission failed, Wen Yi already knows the real reason."
"Oh, really? Why?"
The man was slightly startled, quite surprised, then squatted down and listened to her patiently.
Wen Yi did not hide anything and immediately told everything that was on her mind.
"Third Brother had already been persuaded by me, but just when I was encouraging him to kill that little bitch Feng Wanwan, he suddenly kicked me.
Last night he threatened me not to do anything to that little bitch in the future, otherwise he would kill me!
Auntie, Wen Yi thinks it must be that little bitch Feng Wanwan. This little bitch is poisonous! When my mother was alive, she whispered to me that this little bitch was very evil!
Ever since she was born, Concubine Hua suddenly became mean to my mother and me, and became nicer to Feng Xunlu and her daughter. Also, Feng Xunlu was clearly dead at the beginning, but she came back to life after touching her.
Aunt, I really think this little bitch is not simple. Maybe she has some magic that can bewitch people! Otherwise, how could Third Brother recognize the murderer of his mother as his mother! "
The man did not interrupt her, but just listened to her quietly.
When Wen Yi finally finished speaking, she touched the top of Wen Yi's head with her palm and smiled lovingly.
"That's right. Our Wen Yi is indeed a careful child. Being able to discover so many suspicious points is a great achievement. Auntie will write them down for you."
“Thank you, Auntie!”
Wen Yi smiled happily when she was praised, then gently grabbed the man's hand and asked a question carefully.
"Aunt, how about my mother? Is she doing well in the cold palace? You just said that I have made great contributions, so can I meet with my mother?"
The relieved smile on the man's face faded instantly.
