Xuan Tianyan had never said such harsh words to Fendai. Just like he said, he used to think that Fendai grew up in the Feng Mansion, so her personality was inevitably a little distorted. But Fendai was still young, and there was a long time to live. As long as she was allowed to get away from the Feng Mansion, she would change over time. He was even very happy when he learned that Fendai had taken Xiaobao back. He felt that this girl still had a little tenderness and affection, and knew to keep a relative by her side and treat her well.
But Xuan Tianyan never expected that after the Feng family fell for so long, Fendai's temper not only did not change, but on the contrary it became worse and worse. Now it has developed to the point where she even beats and scolds her own brother. He was very puzzled and asked Fendai in confusion: "If you say that the Feng family has a twisted personality, then why are your second and third sisters so nice? Are you like this? I think I treat you well. I have given you everything you want and everything I can give. I just hope that you can be good and kind. Even if you can't be kind to everyone, at least you can be good to your relatives and people around you. But look at what you have become now? It's simply... I am so disappointed!"
Xuan Tianyan's words scared Dong Ying. She was really afraid that the Fifth Prince would suddenly cancel the engagement. Then her lady would be left with nothing! She was anxious and her hands moved. She gently pulled Fendai's sleeve and whispered, "Miss, please apologize to the Fifth Prince! He is really angry."
Unexpectedly, Fendai threw away her sleeves and said coldly: "Apologize? Why should I apologize to him? I punish my own brother, what does it have to do with him? Not to mention that I haven't married him yet, even if I have, my brother is my mother's brother, and he can't do anything about it!"
"Feng Fendai!" Xuan Tianyan was really angry. He pointed at her and shouted, "Am I meddling in your family's affairs? I'm doing this for your own good! How come you don't understand anything? You're fourteen this year! You'll be a marriageable girl in less than a year. Don't you know how to use your brain when you speak and act?"
Facing such an angry Xuan Tianyan, Dong Ying was so scared that she knelt on the ground, and even Xiao Bao was trembling in Xuan Tianyan's arms. He wanted to go back to his sister, but when he saw Fendai's cold and emotionless face, he stopped and chose to continue to take refuge with Xuan Tianyan.
Fendai was not surprised at Xuan Tianyan's words, nor did she feel too much. She just asked Xuan Tianyan calmly, "Why? Do you regret it? I have been like this since I was a child. Why didn't you ask for details when you proposed to the Feng family? Xuan Tianyan, you are not stupid. You should understand. If I were not of this character, how could I have attracted your attention? How could I have been so cruel as to dance the Snow Plum Dance in the ice and snow? I am such a person. In order to climb to a high position and for my ideal of making a name for myself, I can do anything. You proposed to me without thinking clearly. If you regret it today, you should bear some consequences yourself. Don't blame everything on me."
She looked at him coldly, and even when she saw the disappointment in Xuan Tianyan's eyes, she felt a little disappointed. But her character did not allow her to give in. She even told Xuan Tianyan: "Now that the Feng family is gone, I am alone. If you regret it, you can cancel the engagement anytime and anywhere. Just tell me. As long as you say you don't want me, I will turn around and leave, and never have anything to do with you again. Xuan Tianyan, I have had enough of these years. Since you, as a prince, cannot give me the high position and power I want, then don't let me keep this hope as a future prince's principal wife."
She had almost said everything she wanted to say. After that, she ignored Xuan Tianyan and went back to her own tent. She didn't even have the mood to go to Feng Tianyu to eavesdrop.
Dongying hurriedly followed behind, leaving Xuan Tianyan standing there with Xiaobao in his arms, one extremely disappointed, the other extremely scared.
But speaking of fear, at this moment, there was one person who was even more afraid than Xiao Bao. That person was none other than the Eighth Prince, Xuan Tianmo, who was taken away from the palace openly.
Xuan Tianmo knew who had taken him away. Although he was not very clear-headed sometimes, he was not so confused that he could not even recognize people. When Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng took him out, he thought he was really taken to the enclosure to be beheaded, but he did not expect that after leaving the palace, he turned around and around and ended up in a strange place. It looked like an inn from the outside, but after entering, he kept walking down and stopped after walking a long narrow road. Then he was tied to another rack, still tied naked without dignity. What he faced, in addition to Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianming, was actually a group of strangers.
For a whole night, plus a day and a half, that "Feng Yuheng" had been studying his face, looking left and right, and occasionally touching it. When he felt itchy under his body, the other party would take out a kind of powder and sprinkle it on him. He originally thought it was a powder to relieve the itch, but later he found out that it was just something like Ma Fei San, which could make his lower body numb and relieve the itch.
But now he is not as distressed as he was at the beginning, after all, it has become a habit after a long time. In addition, his lower body has been rotten, he is neither human nor ghost, and death is around him every day, so he has long been indifferent to many things.
But at the moment, he was really scared. Because when the "Feng Yuheng" was studying his face, he was still discussing with the people around him from time to time. He clearly heard the other party say: "High restoration is no problem, but we don't have that much time. You have to know that making a human skin mask is not that easy, it takes at least two months." The woman touched her face while speaking, and said proudly: "I made this mask for three months before it was real enough." After that, she pointed to the "Xuan Tianming" beside her: "Even this one of his took more than two months to complete. Otherwise, if it was that easy, Dashun would have been our world long ago."
After she said this, Xuan Tianmo finally understood that he had been deceived. Not only him, but everyone in the palace had been deceived. These two people were not Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng at all, but two people wearing human skin masks. But who are they? Why did they take him out of the death row? It seems that they are studying their own face, but they also want to make a human skin mask for him?
The unknown is always scary, but Xuan Tianmo's brain turned a circle, and he suddenly said to the other party: "I don't care who you are, or what you want to do, but I can give you a good idea."
"Oh?" The woman chuckled. "What good ideas can you come up with for the Eighth Prince who is almost rotten?"
Xuan Tianmo gritted his teeth. The three words "rotten to pieces" sounded very harsh, but he was not dead after all. As long as people were alive, they would always hope to live longer. So he said, "You want to make a human skin mask of me? Why bother? I can just do whatever you want. As long as you can heal my wounds, I am willing to be your puppet."
"Oh?" The woman seemed very interested in his suggestion and asked, "Puppet? Do you know what the concept of a puppet is?"
"I know." Xuan Tianmo said anxiously, "I have no self. I obey your orders in everything, just like a puppet. I will do whatever you want me to do."
"Including killing your relatives and betraying your country?"
"Hahaha!" Xuan Tianmo laughed, "Relatives? I have killed them a long time ago, but I didn't succeed in the end, so I ended up like this. And the country? If you want Dashun, take it. I just want to live." Yes, he just wants to live. At this point, he no longer has any lofty ambitions. What he has is just the most basic idea: to live.
However, the woman shook her head in disappointment and said, "Eighth Prince of Dashun, let alone we can't cure your injury, even if we can, do you think we can trust you to cooperate with someone like you? I'm afraid that raising a tiger will only bring harm to you, and you may end up getting bitten by the animal you raised."
What's the matter with raising a tiger to bring trouble? Xuan Tianmo didn't even listen to the latter part of the sentence. He was just entangled in the first half of the sentence: "Why? You can't heal my injury?"
The woman still shook her head. "It can't be cured. Princess Ji'an created this strange disease herself. No one in the world can cure it."△≧△≧△≧△≧
"Feng Yuheng!!" Xuan Tianmo roared angrily, and the hatred for Feng Yuheng in his heart rose again, almost bursting through his spiritual shell and soaring into the sky. If Feng Yuheng stood in front of him, he really wanted to chew that woman up and eat her without even spitting out a bone! He hated! He hated her like crazy!
"Why waste your words on him! He's just a dying man." That "Xuan Tianming" began to speak, and then he raised his hand and tore off his face. A human skin mask was quickly torn off, and in its place was a strange face.
Xuan Tianmo stared at the face and finally thought of a key point. He asked the other party: "Are you from Zong Sui? I remember that there was a sixth princess in Zong Sui who was good at disguise." As he spoke, he looked at the woman in front of him and asked: "Are you the sixth princess?"
The woman was stunned at first, then she started to laugh again, and while laughing she tore off the mask on her face. She then replied to Xuan Tianmo, "Thank you, Eighth Prince, for remembering me." Her true appearance was revealed. Who else could it be but Li Yue, who had used the alias Yu Qianyin?
Xuan Tianmo also laughed, he said: "Very good! Zong Sui finally couldn't sit still anymore, finally he wanted to attack Dashun! Great! Now we only need Gumo, if Gumo also attacks Dashun, under the pincer attack from the east and the west, even if Dashun doesn't die, he will be skinned alive." He laughed, his eyes became gloomy, staring at Yu Qianyin and said: "If I go to the battlefield one day in the future, I must tell Zong Sui's soldiers to chop Feng Yuheng into meat sauce for me, or throw her into the red tent for thousands of people to ride on. As long as that woman is dead, Dashun will be at our fingertips!"
"Really?" Yu Qianyin didn't believe him at all. "Although Princess Ji'an is indeed very powerful, she can't support a country by herself. Don't forget, there is also her husband, the Ninth Prince who is known as the God of War!" After she finished speaking, she subconsciously waved her hands, feeling a little irritated. "Why am I telling you this? A dying person should help us solve the problem in front of us first."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Xuan Tianmo's face for a while, then turned back to the people she brought with her and said, "It's too late to make a mask, but there is a better and more realistic method than a mask. Let's try it." As she spoke, she raised the corner of her lips, stared back at Xuan Tianmo's face, and said viciously, "Just peel off his entire face and use it directly!"
