"Cousin...cousin..."
Yun Jian, dressed in dark green clothes, lay on the windowsill, almost blending in with the green trees beside him.
Hearing the shout, the young man in white sitting in the house slowly turned his head, revealing a face as delicate as jade.
Jade is cold and penetrating to the bone.
The jade seemed to have come to life, but there was no light in those dark eyes, only endless gray and dead silence.
"Why are you here?"
A flat voice, neither happy nor sad.
The room was filled with bright colors and festive atmosphere, with a wedding dress hanging on the shelf nearby, but the only thing that stood out was the touch of white, which was so abrupt that not a trace of warmth could be felt.
Yun Jian waved at him: "Come here."
Feng Yin hesitated for a moment, but still stood up.
Perhaps because he had been sitting for too long, his body was a little stiff. He swayed for a moment, and only after he recovered did he slowly walk towards the window.
"What's wrong?"
Yun Jian looked around, making sure no one was around before whispering, "Today they spread the news that you and Pei Chanjuan were getting married. In less than an hour, red fireworks appeared in five directions in Yizhou City, and the smoke from the explosions lingered in the sky for a long time."
"I've heard the Silver Armor Army has cloud-piercing arrows, specifically used to transmit signals and gather troops. Do you think this matter is related to the Empress?"
Even though he was already heartbroken, a ripple still appeared in Feng Yin's dead eyes when he heard the word "Empress".
Your Majesty...
"Is that what you're talking about?"
Yun Jian reached out and grabbed Feng Yin's arm, his eyes firm and distressed: "Cousin, we are not at the end of our rope yet, maybe there is still a chance."
Feng Yin coughed lightly, his mouth full of the taste of rust, but he was able to swallow it without any expression, not wanting to make Yun Jian worry even more.
"How's my mother?"
Yun Jian: "She can now sit up. She just had someone serve her a meal and drank a bowl of ginseng soup."
Feng Yin: "That's good."
It wasn't the end of the road, but he no longer had the time or the care.
It was Yun Jian.
Feng Yin looked at him: "You should leave."
Yun Jian looked at him straight with a stubborn look in his eyes. Feng Yin rebuked him coldly: "Be obedient!"
Because Feng Yin was so handsome, Yun Jian looked older when they stood together. But at this time, Feng Yin frowned and finally showed the dignity of an older brother.
Yun Jian glanced at the red wedding dress in the room, then looked at Feng Yin in white, and finally left reluctantly.
Someone not far away saw this scene, and the news quickly spread in several directions.
Liuyun Pavilion is Pei Chanjuan's residence. At this moment, the house is filled with various wedding items inside and out, and servants are busy coming and going.
A servant hurried in and went straight to the woman surrounded by maids.
"Miss, my uncle met his cousin again. I didn't hear what they said clearly because we were some distance apart, but judging from his demeanor, he didn't seem to be acting strangely."
The servant described in detail what he had seen, and such things would be reported every half hour.
The woman sitting upright was slightly plump, with thick eyebrows, fat lips, slanted eyes, and a striking black mole at the corner of her mouth. Her appearance was indeed not good-looking, but she liked to wear heavy makeup, with smudged blush, blood-red lips, and a flower ornament made of a mixture of pearls and cinnabar on her eyebrows. Every part of her face was visually impactful.
She doesn't think she is ugly. Instead, she looks very satisfied and is obsessed with her appearance.
Hearing that her groom was behaving well, Pei Chanjuan smiled with satisfaction, raised her hand and took a gold hairpin to put on her head, continuing to admire her own beauty.
Pei Chanjuan used to be a simple rich lady, but ever since she first fell in love, her lover called her ugly. He would rather fall in love with the housekeeper's daughter than marry her, which really hit her hard.
After two days of depression, she drugged her lover and made him sleep with her, thus opening the door to a new world.
She doesn't care what others think, she just wants to be happy.
So what if those men despised her for being ugly? She was the daughter of a prince, powerful and influential, so they had no choice but to submit to her, even to flatter her.
However, after seeing Feng Yin, she was shocked by his beauty and felt that her previous life had been in vain.
He is worthy of being the man that the empress favors. He is truly the best man in the world.
For such a handsome man, she was willing to offer her best: money, power, sincerity, she even gave away several of her male favorites.
Feng Yin was reserved and arrogant and didn't want to get close to her.
But it doesn't matter. Tomorrow is the wedding, the bridal chamber, and she has plenty of ways to train men.
------------
Xiao Li didn't know until he checked, and was shocked when he did.
The Feng family moved to Linshan in front two months after Xiao Li fell into a coma. Except for Feng Yin who was an official in the capital, Madam Feng and Feng Yu were also brought here.
Less than a month after they arrived, Feng Yu was married to Prince Pei's illegitimate son by the head of the Feng family. Now the child is almost half a year old.
It is not clear how Feng Yin came to Yizhou, but Madam Feng was in poor health and had been bedridden for three or four months, and had almost died several times.
Is the Feng family targeting this third son of the family?
The Feng family is a scholarly family, with all the family members being scholars. However, being able to read and write does not mean that one is a good person.
Ever since Feng Yin forcefully seized the position of patriarch and cut off the Feng family's property and gave it to the empress in exchange for the Feng family's safety, everyone in the Feng family has been blaming Feng Yin.
She blamed him for using the Feng family's money to please the empress, scolded him for being in an unclear relationship with the empress and bringing shame to the Feng family, and scolded him for being unfaithful and unfilial and killing his grandfather.
These people had no idea that the only reason they were still alive was thanks to Feng Yin alone.
Otherwise, the few times that Grand Tutor Feng caused trouble were more than enough for Xiao Li to settle accounts with the Feng family.
As the Feng family's wealth shrank, they began to split internally. After moving back to Linshan, those Feng family members who were used to enjoying luxury could not accept such a gap.
The greater the gap, the more they hated Feng Yin. Finally, they pulled him down with their own hands and sacrificed him in exchange for everything they wanted.
They also said as a matter of course that this was all owed to them by Feng Yin.
"idiot."
Xiao Li scolded Feng Yin.
This idiot who became stupid because of studying too much!
He was a gentleman brought up in a scholarly family, burdened with heavy moral shackles. Because he had the blood of the Feng family and had received the grace of the Feng family, he could not bear to see the Feng family destroyed.
But he was reluctant to waste the last bit of pure and true feelings between him and the empress, and was unwilling to ask him for help because of the Feng family's affairs.
In the end, he was caught in the middle, not in a dilemma, but completely destroyed.
The Silver Armor Guards were not aware of Feng Yin's situation, and Feng Yin was under heavy guard, making it impossible to contact him.
Xiao Li didn't say much, but the Silver Armor Guard couldn't accept that he was useless in front of the empress, so he took time out of his busy schedule to wait and finally tied someone up for Xiao Li.
The sack was opened, and the angry Yun Jian was about to curse, but he met a pair of eyes smiling with ill intent. The beautiful and heroic woman was like a demon who saw a delicious snack. The corners of her lips raised slightly, and her smile was as bewitching as a demon: "Hello, little friend."
