Chapter 45: Falling for Chu Feiyang



Although the old lady had not been in Kyoto for a long time, she was very familiar with the people of the major clans in Kyoto. After hearing the report from Guard Liu, her mind immediately reflected the identity, status and background of the person, and she ordered Guard Liu, "Thank Prime Minister Chu for me!"

The old lady's words caused Yun Qianmeng to sneer calmly. Her grandmother was now eager to gain a foothold in Kyoto's upper class society!

Who is Chu Feiyang? He gave way today only out of respect for the elder. If we really talk about official rank, Yun Xuanzhi's right prime minister is slightly lower than Chu Feiyang's left prime minister!

But the old lady was only thinking about paving the way for her two grandsons, so she had no time to care about these things!

Besides, even if Yun Xuanzhi is useless, she still has a relative from the Fuguo Mansion, and that relative has a queen mother!

Thinking of this, the old lady's eyes showed a hint of pride, but Chu Feiyang was too legendary, which made her a little curious. What kind of man was he who could be so loved by Emperor Yugan at such a young age and hold the highest position among all officials!

The more doubts she felt, the more the old lady raised her hand and gently lifted a corner of the car curtain, looking out...

Not far from the carriage, I saw a young man wearing a navy blue cloak riding on a black horse. The man had sword-like eyebrows, phoenix eyes, a straight nose and thin lips. But at this moment, he looked at the carriage with his eyes slightly raised, his lips slightly pursed, as if smiling. The black eyes under his thick eyebrows were like a pool of thick ink that could not be dissolved. He looked so elegant with a devilish charm, handsome with a mysterious look, which made the girls passing by on the street blush. Some of the brave ones even stared at his extraordinary heroic figure, unable to take their eyes away for a while!

Even the old lady who always thought that her grandson was the best couldn't help but nodded with a smile in her eyes, seeming to be very satisfied with Chu Feiyang's appearance!

But at this moment, Yun Qianmeng noticed Chu Feiyang's majestic posture on horseback, which actually carried an aura of a king that shook the world. Thinking of his entanglement with the royal family, Yun Qianmeng's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she thought to herself that she should stay away from this person in the future!

It was just that his dark pupils seemed to have read her thoughts, and a faint smile appeared on his elegant face, which made everyone stunned and caused Yun Qianmeng to look away!

"I never thought that Prime Minister Chu would be so graceful. It's truly amazing! I wonder if Prime Minister Chu has any wives or concubines at home?" The old lady was proud of her noble status. She only looked for a moment before lowering the curtain and asked Yun Qianmeng casually. The smile in her eyes contained a calculation that could not be ignored!

Yun Qianmeng averted her gaze when the old lady looked at her. She smiled slightly at the old lady's question and replied, "Meng'er rarely goes out, so it's not convenient for me to inquire about other men's marriages! If you're interested, why not ask my father?"

The old lady felt a little unhappy when she heard this, but when she thought about Yun Qianmeng's words, she felt that it made sense, so she nodded indifferently. However, in her heart, she arbitrarily paired Chu Feiyang and Yun Yiyi as a couple. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the two were a good match!

Yun Qianmeng also guessed the old lady's thoughts. At this time, the court was roughly divided into two factions, one headed by Emperor Yugan and the other headed by Prince Chen!

But Chu Feiyang is an exception. He is neither close to Emperor Yugan nor on good terms with King Chen. He is independent and talented, but he is also smart enough to remain neutral. Therefore, he is highly valued by Emperor Yugan and King Chen does not cause trouble for him!

This is probably what the old lady sees!

After all, although there are many men of noble status among the nobles, Chu Feiyang and Prince Chen are the best in every way. At this time, the Prime Minister's Mansion has been tied to Emperor Yugan. Since Prince Chen has rejected even the Prime Minister's eldest daughter, it is impossible for him to fall in love with Yun Yiyi!

Chu Feiyang's identity is the safest. No matter who wins or loses the battle between Emperor Yugan and King Chen in the future, the Prime Minister's Mansion will have an extra layer of protection by relying on Chu Feiyang!

The car fell silent for a moment. The old lady and Yun Qianmeng were each thinking about their own things, until Guard Liu's voice rang out again, "Old Madam, Miss, we've arrived at the Prime Minister's Residence!"

The two people in the car then exchanged a glance. The old lady's eyes suddenly showed seriousness, while Yun Qianmeng smiled lightly and said respectfully, "Granddaughter, help grandmother get out of the car!"

Seeing that Yun Qianmeng was still as gentle and polite as before, the old lady's dissatisfaction with her just now gradually dissipated. She nodded and took Yun Qianmeng's hand, letting her help her get off the carriage!

Meanwhile, Yun Xuanzhi personally led the servants of the Prime Minister's residence to the main gate. As soon as the old lady stepped out of the carriage, he immediately stepped forward, bowed, and said in a heartfelt voice, "Son greets mother! How is your health?"

The old lady looked up and saw that the son she had raised was now a prime minister of the highest rank. A hint of pride could not help but appear on her face. Seeing that her son had come to greet her personally today, she felt a glow on her face. She graciously placed her hand on Yun Xuanzhi's arm, then patted his hand and said with relief, "Good! Everything is fine!"

At this moment, the servants behind Yun Xuanzhi knelt down in unison, saying in unison, "Old Madam, how are you? Long live the old madam!"

Seeing this, the old lady's expression became more positive. She nodded repeatedly and stepped into the Prime Minister's Residence with the support of Yun Xuanzhi and Yun Qianmeng...

Yun Xuanzhi had asked housekeeper Zhao to tidy up Baishun Hall in the southernmost part early in the morning. When the old lady stepped into the main room of Baishun Hall, the fragrance was rising from the rosewood incense burner. The whole room was clean and tidy. Valuable antique ornaments were placed on the eight-legged hanging board on the table, and famous paintings by famous artists, each worth a thousand gold coins, were hung on the walls. Each piece and each painting was a masterpiece of great craftsmanship, which made the old lady very satisfied and the smile on her face became even more intense!

After everyone was seated, the old lady pointed at Yun Yiheng and his brother standing in front of Yun Xuanzhi and said, "Son, these are your brother's two children, Yiheng and Yijie! I brought them here this time, firstly for their future, and secondly, to help you! Your brother's health is getting worse every year. You are his only big brother, you can't just stand by and watch him die!"

The old lady didn't beat around the bush. As soon as she opened her mouth, she blocked all of Yun Xuanzhi's escape routes, leaving him speechless!

It was indeed his fault for what happened back then, but thinking of the news sent back by Guard Liu this morning, Yun Xuanzhi felt extremely uncomfortable. He could only watch Yun Yiheng and the others bow to him with an awkward smile on his face, but he still managed to be polite. He simply asked about the brothers' daily homework, then called Housekeeper Zhao and asked him to lead them to the prepared Qinghui Courtyard. Then he smiled and said to the old lady, "Mother, rest well these few days. In a few days, I will send a few concubines to pay their respects to you!"

But the old lady's face darkened after hearing this, and a hint of disgust appeared in her eyes. She said unhappily, "Those concubines of yours are so arrogant. I have to wait a few days before I can see them!"

Yun Xuanzhi heard the dissatisfaction in the old lady's words and immediately smiled and said, "Mother, please calm down. It was your son who was inconsiderate! I will ask them to come to the house to set the rules at dinner time! Mother, please rest for a while. I will make arrangements right away!"

After he finished speaking, Yun Xuanzhi glanced at Yun Qianmeng, and they both stood up and left Baishun Hall at the same time!

However, the moment he stepped out of Baishun Hall's courtyard, the smile on Yun Xuanzhi's face instantly vanished. He was enveloped in a rage, and with a sullen expression, he hurried towards Fenghe Garden...
