Chapter 425: The Plans of the Jinyang Family, Feng Buxian Comes to the Fu Mansion
Rong Ting's eyes darkened, and there was a hint of heartache in his eyes when he looked at Cai Wenning. Cai Wenning looked up at Rong Ting, and saw a heartache and tenderness in his eyes that she had never seen before.
She was horrified.
The Rong family's status in Jinyang Prefecture is unmatched by the Cai family.
"Why is there a needle in my second sister's body? I think she was at the farm and met a peasant woman from the village. Maybe..." Cai Wenting didn't want the Rong family to have more contact with Cai Wen Ning.
"Brother Ting, even so, you can't break off the engagement with me?"
She bowed to Rong's mother and said, "Aunt Xiang, you have also watched me grow up. Since I was a child, you know how my mother treated me and how I treated her."
Tears streamed down Cai Wenting's face like water.
"Death is like the extinguishing of a light. When my mother died, the love we had for each other naturally ended too."
"Now, I understand why Mother wants me to learn how to manage the household, practice music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and be familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics." Cai Wenting smiled bitterly, "Since the Rong family wants to cancel the engagement, then I, Cai Wenting, hereby declare: it is I, Cai Wenting, who wants to cancel the engagement."
"I am Wen Qian's daughter, and I share her pride."
She took one last look at Rong Ting, wanting to retreat in order to advance.
"Aunt Xiang, Wen Ting wishes you a happy and healthy future."
After saying that.
Cai Wenting turned and left.
Rong's mother's heart tightened, "Wenting. Don't leave."
"Nothing has come to light yet."
Rong's mother is inclined towards Cai Wen Ning, but Cai Wen Ting has known her for thirteen years, and their relationship is not made of paper and can be torn apart at any time.
"Aunt Xiang, today was a slap in the face for me."
Shen Yunyue said calmly:
"Miss Cai is afraid of being embarrassed and losing face later. Naturally, she ran away first. Secondly, she also has to inform the person who did the bad thing."
Rong’s mother:…?
Onlookers: ...?
what is going on?
She had a gloomy face and was about to speak when Rong Ting covered her mouth. He lowered his voice and whispered to her:
"Mom, you better think carefully before you speak. Shen Yunyue is as cunning as a needle tip. Offending her is more terrible than offending the head of the Rong family."
"She is also the one who saved the young master."
These two sentences instantly silenced Mother Rong.
Not only did she save Young Master Rong, if it weren't for Shen Yunyue, Rong Ting would never be able to hold his head up.
He was about to be suppressed by Rong Mu and others.
Seeing that Rong's mother did not try to keep her, Cai Wenting had to leave angrily.
She broke off the engagement with Rong Ting?
Will it be possible to find such a good young man from a noble family in the future?
Cai Wenting was confused.
He hurried to a small courtyard in the backyard and said, "Go and call Manager Wen over."
"yes."
"Just say I'm waiting for her in Nanyuan."
The maid responded and left.
With Shen Yunyue's help, the Cai family had no choice but to agree to open the coffin.
It was at this time that the surrounding residents learned that Wen Qian was buried in the plum forest of Hulu Mountain.
He was not buried in the Cai family cemetery.
Cai Wen Ning was full of gratitude, and she suggested that the three doctors from Bao'an Hall, Baohe Hall, and Baorentang go together.
Doctor Xu and the other two all wanted to see the Thousand-Year-Old Meat Buddha.
Upon hearing this, three pairs of eyes like human spirits stared at Shen Yunyue.
Does Shen Yunyue know what they want to see?
"I'll give Miss Cai Wenning acupuncture and medicine later. You three can give me some pointers."
"Then we will respectfully obey your orders."
The three of them originally thought that Shen Yunyue was a poor student with many tools, and they also wanted to give her some guidance if she had any talent.
Arrived at Fu Mansion.
Seeing Shen Yunyue's smooth acupuncture technique, the three of them fell silent. This girl's acupuncture technique was much better than theirs.
I thought he was a poor student, but it turns out he is a genius.
In the afternoon.
Rong Ting, along with three doctors and several young men from the Cai family, also called in a few young men he knew well. Rong Ting went to the city lord and summoned one of Tian Wenjing's retainers to go to Meilin to open the coffin.
Of course, there are also two well-known coroners in Jinyang Prefecture.
After they left.
Manager Wen quietly left the city.
Instead of looking for a carriage from the Cai Mansion, they rented a fast carriage from a carriage dealership and left the city. Xiao Jiu followed Manager Wen all the way. He stroked his chin and thought, "My young mistress is really amazing."
You hit the nail on the head.
The Fu family is receiving guests.
Lu Zhiling didn't expect that Fu Xuanheng and Shen Yunyue would post to him.
He hurried to the front yard to tell his grandfather that he would discuss anything with Grandpa Lu. After hearing Lu Zhiling's introduction, the old man knew the purpose of Fu Xuanheng's visit.
"I'm afraid you're here for Jinyang Prefecture."
"The former Crown Prince was respectful to the virtuous and humble, and originally wanted to break the pattern of Jinyang Prefecture. Unfortunately, the eight great families have many connections with the ministers of the court. It can be said that many ministers were supported by the eight great families."
"The reason why the late crown prince died so quickly was also due to the involvement of the aristocratic family."
Old Master Lu heard about the Yun Heng Legion and also heard that it took only two hours to capture Nan'an Prefecture.
"Zhi Ling. I'll listen to your opinion this time."
Old Man Lu felt that they, the old guys, needed to let the young people make decisions.
"If you stand firmly with Master Fu, I will order everyone to obey your orders." Old Master Lu wanted to hand over the leadership of the family to Lu Zhiling.
Old Master Lu is not optimistic about the current emperor.
He felt that the Fifth Prince was somewhat confident, but he also heard that the Fifth Prince and Fu Xuanheng had close contacts.
Fu Xuanheng also has the support of Yaowang Valley.
I have a vague idea who the future emperor star will be.
Lu Zhiling didn't expect his grandfather to be so straightforward. It was said that one had to fight to the death to get the position of the leader in the family.
But he...
"Grandfather, do you really want me to take over?"
"Father, he...?"
Old Master Lu sighed, "As the eldest son, your father lived a confused life. If it weren't for his younger brothers who loved him, he would have been killed in a fight if he were in another family."
Lu Zhiling's father was obsessed with beauty all his life.
The concubines and maids often frequented brothels.
"Don't bother your father with beautiful women."
Lu Zhiling's face was calm, but he was secretly delighted. "I will follow my grandfather's arrangements in everything."
"Then I'll go to the Fu family for the banquet first."
Mr. Lu waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
After Lu Zhiling left.
Several people emerged from the inner room, one of them a middle-aged man with a sullen expression. "Father, how young is Lu Zhiling? How can he be the head of the Lu family?"
Mr. Lu said indifferently:
"The eight great families in Jinyang Prefecture are fighting openly and secretly. We, the second-tier families, are squeezed out and become scapegoats if we don't pay attention."
"What can you guys do?"
"Hmph. We've never been valued by the royal family. I think it's better to establish a good relationship with the city lord."
Another man with a mustache sneered:
"There are so many people who want to have a good relationship with the city lord. Who can hide from the old city lord's eyes?"
"In my opinion, it's better to listen to father and let Lu Zhiling go out and muddy the waters."
"If we lose, he'll take the blame."
"We'll talk about it when we win."
Old Master Lu's eyes were deep and he looked at his sons calmly.
Someone has to take the lead. These sons are more cowardly than the other.
Not as good as that stupid boy Lu Zhiling.
Lu Zhiling arrived at Fu's house.
After presenting the gift he had prepared, he saw that the Fu Mansion was in perfect order. He thought to himself that he had only been here for two days, but it felt like he had lived here for several months.
It seems that the Rong family and the Fu family have a really good relationship.
Lu Zhiling drank a cup of cloud tea.
Shen Yunyue and Fu Xuanheng came over together.
Hearing the sound from the front yard, Lu Zhiling stood up and walked to the door.
They just happened to make eye contact with the guests that Fu Xuanheng and his companions were sending off.
With just one glance, Lu Zhiling knew who that person was?
Feng Buxian, head of the Feng family, one of the eight aristocratic families in Jinyang Prefecture, never took sides. The Feng family, with its rich family traditions, remained independent of the cliques and factions of the other major families.
Every year, the one who participates in the voting is the illegitimate son of the second wife.
Feng Yuan, the illegitimate son of the second wife, never talks much.
Feng Buxian just glanced at it lightly and then looked away.
He clasped his fists towards Shen Yunyue and Fu Xuanheng, "Master Fu, Madam Fu. Sorry for disturbing you. I hope you can help me with my son's matter."
Feng Buxian came here purely because he heard a piece of gossip.
Mrs. Fu of the Fu Mansion is a miracle doctor.
Her medical skills are even better than those of Yaowang Valley.
This is also the reason why Yaowang Valley is willing to train military doctors for the Yunheng Legion.
Feng Buxian came to ask for a meeting in order to treat his son's illness.
Everyone says that the Feng family lives in seclusion.
In fact, all the men in the Feng family will suffer from a strange disease after they reach adulthood.
Only the head of the Feng family and Feng Yuan did not suffer from the strange disease.
Shen Yunyue nodded.
The two men walked them to the door. "Master Feng, Xuan Heng and I will go over and take a look tomorrow morning. Before that, I can only say that you may have a genetic disease."
"Thank you."
The head of the Feng family said goodbye.
When the head of the Feng family left, he found that someone was secretly paying attention to the Fu Mansion.
He sighed, fearing that he would be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives.
Outsiders all thought that the Feng family and the Fu family were on good terms.
Patriarch Feng looked at the servant at the gate of the Fu Mansion and knew that this was the Fu Mansion's tacit consent. He lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly.
Fu Xuanheng's move was really brilliant.
Whatever?
The news that the head of the Feng family came to pay a visit to Master Fu must have spread.
Just as Patriarch Feng thought.
This piece of gossip spread to all the powerful families in Jinyang Prefecture in less than a cup of tea.
Upon hearing this, Old City Lord Tian smashed several jade cups.
"Feng Buxian has gone crazy. He's become a dog abandoned by the royal family." Old City Lord Tian touched his gray hair and in a fit of rage, he pounced on the little beauty sitting on his lap.
He bit her neck hard.
He didn't finish venting his anger until the little beauty gradually stopped moving.
He spat out the blood in his mouth.
Old City Lord Tian glanced at him sideways coldly and said, "Drag him away."
"yes."
The servants serving on the side were already used to it.
