Feng Xiangrong came back, right at this moment, not by anyone, but by herself. But she looked rather disheveled, because it was raining outside, and she was soaked from head to toe, with her hair sticking to her cheeks, so that she could only vaguely make out her features, how could she still see the pretty face she had before?
The doorman quickly let her in and held an umbrella for her. Xiangrong was very weak and staggered when she walked. The servant saw that this was not going to work, so he quickly called two maids to come over, one on each side to support her, and helped her back to the courtyard where she lived before. Not until Xiangrong sat on the chair did the maid Shancha rush over, without saying a word, ran to the ground, hugged Xiangrong's thighs and started crying, crying and saying, "Miss! Miss, you are finally back. Shancha was scared to death. Shancha thought she would never see you again! Miss, where have you been these days? Who kidnapped you?"
Xiangrong looked at Shancha for a while, and then said after a while: "Don't talk nonsense, what do you mean by being kidnapped? Isn't it ruining my reputation if you say that? What should I do in the future?" When she spoke, her face was cold and her eyes were fierce, which frightened Shancha so much that she didn't dare to say another word. Perhaps Shancha's expression also reminded the other party, and then Xiangrong said again: "Shancha, don't blame me for talking like this, I am not targeting you, but if this matter gets out, I, your lady... will really have no need to live." As she said that, she reached out and touched Shancha's head, gently stroking it twice to show comfort.
Shan Cha was very pleased and felt warm in her heart. She nodded vigorously, "Miss, don't worry. I won't tell anyone a word. But...Miss, where have you been these days?"
Xiangrong sighed softly and was about to say something when the other maids in the room brought clean clothes over. Shancha quickly took them and said, "Miss, let's change our clothes first, otherwise we will catch a cold."
As she spoke, she naturally wanted to help Xiangrong change her clothes, but Xiangrong did not let Shancha serve her like before. Instead, she said to her, "I can change my clothes by myself. Tell His Majesty the Seventh Prince quickly that I'm back, so he won't worry."
Shancha thought this made sense. Although the servants in the mansion would definitely report it, as a servant in Xiangrong's house, it would be better for her to go there in person. After all, the Seventh Prince had really put a lot of effort into finding Xiangrong these days.
Seeing Shancha hurried away, Xiangrong immediately sent away the waiters in the room. When she was the only one left, she raised one corner of her lips and smiled coldly, saying, "Call Shancha! What a stupid servant, she gave out her name herself. That's good, it saves me from wasting my time." She looked around the room while changing her clothes, and then gently pushed open a window to look outside. The hatred in her heart came in vain. "It's really an elegant and unique courtyard. When I was here, why didn't you want to let me live in such a beautiful courtyard? Feng Xiangrong, a maid with no skills and low status, what on earth can you do to live in Prince Chun's mansion? What on earth can you do to get him?"
As she spoke, she reached out and wiped her face, her brows slightly furrowed. This mask was made too hastily. She started making it based on her memory of Xiangrong's appearance the night she let Feng Fendai go, and continued until she caught Feng Xiangrong, and then improved it by comparing it with the current appearance. It only took about twenty days, and even though it was made day and night, there are still many flaws, but it is more than enough to fool the servants in Prince Chun's mansion. I just don't know if it can fool Xuan Tianhua, especially that biological sister Feng Yuheng.
It rained heavily today, and the rain wet her hair and covered her face a little, making her look more like a real woman. She would have to improve this face at night so that she could face more people.
Shan Cha did not find Xuan Tianhua. It was said that he was still out doing business and had not returned. "Xiang Rong" knew what he was doing, nothing more than looking for someone. Recently, too many people have been missing in the capital, but no one knows where those people are hiding. And she, who went deep into this dragon pool and tiger school, did have some ideas to get close to Xuan Tianhua as Feng Xiang Rong. If the two of them were really affectionate and loyal, it would be good for her to replace them. If they were heartless, she could also pour a basin of cold water on them, and it would be best to just leave early.
Xuan Tianhua rushed back before midnight that evening. As soon as he entered the mansion, he heard the news that Xiangrong had returned. He was surprised and happy, and hurried to the courtyard to check on her.
When he arrived, the people inside were already fast asleep. The immortal stood at the door and took a look inside. When he saw the young woman lying on the bed, his heart, which had been hanging for several days, finally settled down. He didn't plan to stay any longer, and only asked Shan Cha: "Is your young lady injured?"
Shancha shook her head, "It doesn't look like she's injured."
"What do you mean by look?" Xuan Tianhua frowned, "No close servant?"
Shan Cha said: "The young lady did not ask me to wait on her. She changed her clothes and bathed herself, so I can only say that she did not appear to be injured."
"Is this how you serve as a servant?" Xuan Tianhua was angry and irritated for no reason. He didn't know whether he was angry that this girl didn't serve the master well, or that Xiangrong refused to serve even the personal maid. But he felt that it was neither of these two. Although this irritable emotion came from the rejection itself, it always gave him a bad premonition. "Forget it, keep watch well! I will come again tomorrow." He turned and left, deciding to visit again tomorrow.
As soon as the person left, the person who was sleeping on the bed in the room sat up. Through the bright moonlight after the rain, she looked at the figure gradually receding in the courtyard, feeling unwilling. She once asked her brother to come to Dashun to ask for marriage as a princess of a country, but was messed up by Feng Yuheng. Later, she tried every means to get close to Xuan Tianhua, but ended up with a more miserable ending. She thought that a man like Xuan Tianhua would never get a wife in his life. If she couldn't get one, others couldn't dream of it either. Who knew that Feng Xiangrong would appear now? Such an unknown little woman could actually attract the other party to come and visit her in the middle of the night, and the conversation between her and the maid Shancha clearly showed concern. How could she not be jealous!
In anger, he pulled off the mask on his face, revealing Yu Qianyin's true face again. At the same time, his distorted expression was also exposed.
I thought I only hated Xuan Tianhua, but when I saw him again, I realized that besides hatred, the love I once had had was not gone at all. Feng Xiangrong, she must make good use of this identity this time, to see how deep the feelings of that immortal man for this girl are.
She got up and did not go back to sleep. Instead, she walked to the door and locked it, and told Shan Cha that she did not need to stay up all night. Then she lit a candle and carefully trimmed and perfected the human skin mask under the candlelight. It was not until the first rays of the sun shone in the next morning that she put it back on her face with satisfaction. Then she looked in the mirror and thought that it was getting more perfect each time. Now this face is more than seven points close to Feng Xiangrong's. It just needs to be repaired every night, and it cannot be worn all the time without repair.
She opened the door and let the maid in. She saw Shan Cha holding a bowl of bird's nest in her hand and said to her with a smile: "Young lady, you don't look well. Maybe you got caught in the rain yesterday. This is what Madam specially asked the kitchen to prepare. It is the best bird's nest, all the best things from the palace. Young lady, eat it while it's hot!"
Yu Qianyin said nothing. While fiddling with the thing called "towel" that was unique to Prince Chun's mansion, she wondered: Who is the Madam? She had been in this room since she came back yesterday. Because of the heavy rain, no one else had come except Xuan Tianhua who came to visit at night. She didn't want to alarm the enemy and ask more questions, so she was still a little surprised to hear the title of "Madam" at this time. ℃≡℃≡℃≡Gate℃≡
At that moment, he made countless guesses in his mind: Is there a principal wife in Prince Chun's mansion? Generally speaking, only the principal wife can be called a lady? Or maybe... Xuan Tianhua's mother? But he is a prince, and his mother should live in the palace.
She couldn't figure it out, but Shan Cha confessed again without asking, and then she heard the little maid say, "Madam treats Miss really well! Not only did she decide on your marriage with the Seventh Prince, but even though Miss wasn't in the mansion these days, she prepared all the betrothal gifts, and even asked the Ninth Prince to go back to Yuehan Palace to search for them, and found some good things. In a few days, we will go to Ji'an County, and Madam will personally propose to Madam An. Miss, this is the first time in Dashun! Even the Second Miss didn't enjoy the treatment of Concubine Yun personally going out of the palace to propose to the Feng Mansion!"
Shan Cha said this very proudly, and Yu Qianyin finally understood that Madam was referring to Concubine Yun in the palace. So, Concubine Yun was now living in Prince Chun's mansion.
Her face became even colder, and she finally heard the answer she least wanted to hear. Feng Xiangrong was going to get engaged to Xuan Tianhua, and it was Concubine Yun who made the decision, and they were going to propose marriage soon. Damn it! What kind of drug did that girl give to Concubine Yun and Xuan Tianhua?
Halfway through the morning, what was supposed to come finally came. Xuan Tianhua brought Feng Yuheng into the courtyard where Feng Xiangrong lived. The people in the house had already stood at the door to greet them after being notified by the servants. When they saw the two of them entering the courtyard, they hurriedly greeted them with tears in their eyes and threw themselves directly into Feng Yuheng's arms, crying loudly, "Second sister! Xiangrong thought she would never see you again!"
Feng Yuheng was knocked sideways by her charge, and subconsciously took two steps back. It was Xuan Tianhua who supported her from behind to stabilize her retreat.
She frowned slightly, and felt a strange yet familiar smell coming from this "Xiang Rong". She said strange because Xiang Rong had never used spices with this smell before, and she said familiar because she had smelled this smell before, a long time ago, on a woman's body...
