Feng Yuheng desperately searched the original owner's memory, but could not think of any connection between the Bu family and himself.
Ren Xifeng explained her doubts: "I didn't know much about this originally, but I heard about it from my mother a few days ago. It is said that when you were born, Divine Doctor Yao was treating the injuries of Bu Baiping's brother, Bu Nishang's father, Bu Baiqi. Bu Cong was also there at the time. He is eight years older than you and is said to be very handsome. Divine Doctor Yao was very happy to know that your mother gave birth to you safely, and gave Bu Baiqi a lot of medicine. Bu Cong was also young, and seeing Divine Doctor Yao so happy, he also became happy, and even shouted that he would marry you when he grows up."
Feng Yuheng stroked his forehead, this is not a relationship at all, it's clearly a rotten peach blossom.
Gossip always attracts women. Ren Xifeng's words made the others very interested. They urged her to speak quickly. So Ren Xifeng continued, "Divine Doctor Yao thought it was just a joke, but Bu Cong took it seriously and begged his father to come to your house to ask for marriage when you were only six years old. But at that time you were the legitimate daughter of the Feng family. The Bu family was nothing in the eyes of the Feng family, so your father naturally would not agree. Bu Cong was depressed for a long time because of this. Until you were sent out of the capital by the Feng family, the Bu family suddenly rose in power, and Bu Cong begged the emperor to give him an army and went to the east to guard the border."
Feng Yuheng was shocked. Is he still a lovesick person?
Feng Tianyu reminded everyone: "Don't mention this anymore. Everyone knows that Ah Heng has been engaged to the Ninth Prince for a long time. The Bu family is just dreaming. They probably saw that the Ninth Prince didn't take this marriage seriously in those years, so they had the courage to move forward."
Feng Yuheng nodded: "Well, let the past be the past, I don't remember it anyway. However, Xuan Tianming didn't take me seriously before, I have to settle this account with him."
Feng Tianyu shut up, has she gotten into trouble again?
Led by the little palace maid, everyone walked all the way to the Liuli Garden where the palace banquet was held. But halfway through the journey, Feng Yuheng stopped, pushed Xiangrong forward, and said to the three of them, "You can take my sister with you first. I have to pay my respects to Concubine Yun first. It's not easy to come to the palace, it would be bad if I don't go and take a look."
Everyone understood. Bai Furong took the initiative to pull Xiangrong to her side, and then said to the little palace maid who led the way: "You accompany Miss Feng to Yuehan Palace. We know the way to Liuli Garden. Just follow the crowd."
The little maid was actually reluctant to go to Yuehan Palace. Not only were there few people there, there were no fireworks, and it was not very crowded. Ordinary people would feel very cautious if they approached too close. Plus, with Concubine Yun's temper, she was really afraid that she would get hurt if she got too close.
But now that Feng Yuheng wanted to go, she had no choice. This was the future Princess Yu, and it was understandable for her to go to the palace to pay respects to her future mother-in-law. She could only bite the bullet and nod, and prepare to turn around and take Feng Yuheng to Yuehan Palace.
Feng Yuheng naturally saw the girl's reluctance, and she had no intention of embarrassing a little palace maid, so she said, "No need, you can take the young ladies to Liuli Garden. This maid used to follow the Ninth Prince, and she knows the way to Yuehan Palace."
The young palace maid was delighted when she heard this. She confirmed with Huang Quan again and again. After learning that Huang Quan really knew the way, she took Bai Furong and the others to the Glazed Garden.
Feng Yuheng followed Huang Quan to Yuehan Palace. Huang Quan asked her, "Miss, did you bring the gift you prepared for Concubine Yun?"
Feng Yuheng nodded, "It's in the sleeve, it's a small item, not noticeable."
Huang Quan was relieved, and said as he walked: "The servants in the palace are afraid of Concubine Yun, but actually Concubine Yun is quite good, and is very kind to the two princes. It's just that she is a little cold, and doesn't like to see the emperor."
Feng Yuheng was helpless. Concubine Yun's temperament was not cold at all, it was clearly weird. A concubine had not seen the emperor, had not been banished to the cold palace, and had even been so favored for so many years. It seemed that not only Concubine Yun was weird, but the emperor was also weird. She thought of the wise saying in her previous life again. Could it be that what you can't get is really the best?
"Oh, right." She recalled what Ren Xifeng and the others had just said: "How much do you know about the Bu family?"
Huang Quan thought for a moment and said, "Not many. I only know that Bu Cong is stationed at the eastern border of Dashun and controls a quarter of the troops of Dashun. At first, it was obviously because Bu Baiping, who was still a concubine, became a noble concubine that the Bu family suddenly rose to power. But now it seems that Noble Concubine Bu should rely on Bu Cong. The emperor has always loved Concubine Yun alone, and even the queen can't control this. But he didn't treat Noble Concubine Bu badly. Noble Concubine Bu has everything she should have, except for one thing, she has no children."
"Without children, there is no future." Feng Yuheng knew the truth very well. "Bu Nishang is Bu Cong's biological sister. She looks about the same age as Feng Chenyu. Has she talked about marriage?"
"Yes." Huang Quan said, "Bu Nishang is promised to the fourth prince Xuan Tianyi, and it seems that she will get married in the early spring of next year."
As the two were talking, Yuehan Palace was approaching.
Feng Yuheng looked at this lonely, desolate, yet extremely gorgeous palace, and couldn't help but feel a few emotions.
She didn't know what kind of story there was between Concubine Yun and the Emperor, and she had no intention of asking Xuan Tianming about it. It was just a miracle that a concubine could not see the Emperor for nearly ten years, and yet the Emperor could still pamper her to this extent.
She and Huang Quan walked to the gate of Yuehan Palace. The maid inside was not surprised to see them. She just stepped forward and said, "I pay my respects to the princess."
Feng Yuheng was used to the people on Xuan Tianming's side calling her the princess, so she didn't stop them. She just said, "I came to attend the Yuexi Palace Banquet today. Before the banquet starts, I wanted to pay my respects to Concubine Yun first. I wonder if it's convenient."
The little maid smiled and said, "Of course it's convenient. Your Majesty knew that the princess would come, so she asked me to greet her here early in the morning."
Feng Yuheng was stunned. Concubine Yun had even planned for her to come? But thinking about it again, there was nothing strange about it. Anyone who had a little bit of etiquette would come to the future mother-in-law to pay their respects when entering the palace.
She followed the maid inside. Concubine Yun was still at her favorite moon-viewing platform. After the maid went in to report, she said to Feng Yuheng, "Princess, please come in." She looked at Huang Quan again and said a little embarrassedly, "Miss Huang Quan, would you mind waiting here with me?"
Huang Quan used to be a frequent visitor to Yuehan Palace. She even worked as a secret guard for Concubine Yun for two years. Every servant in the palace knew her. She naturally understood Concubine Yun's rules, so she just nodded and said nothing more.
Feng Yuheng entered the Moon Viewing Hall alone, and saw that Concubine Yun was wearing a hibiscus-colored dress today. She still had that lazy look that was very similar to Xuan Tianming. She was sitting on the steps of the Moon Viewing Platform, holding a glass cup in her hand, and drinking something.
Feng Yuheng used his nose to sniff twice and could tell it was wine.
She took a few steps forward and knelt before Concubine Yun: "Your daughter-in-law greets you, mother. I haven't visited you for many days. Is everything okay, mother?"
She still used the title that Concubine Yun had allowed last time, and the sense of closeness was immediately strengthened.
Concubine Yun was very satisfied with this. She nodded and held out her hand to her: "Don't kneel down all the time. There are no outsiders here, mother. Come and sit down."
Feng Yuheng walked over obediently, stretched out her hand, and directly called out a pre-prepared gift from the space, "This is a gift that my son prepared for my mother. I don't know if my mother likes it."
Concubine Yun had heard Xuan Tianming talk about Feng Yuheng's superb medical skills and those strange things, and she also knew that she had a master-disciple relationship with a Persian eccentric. Now that she saw Feng Yuheng took out a strange thing, she couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation.
"What is it?" Yun Fei took it in her hand and opened the wooden box, only to find a round object the size of a palm inside. She held it in her hand, and couldn't tell what it was made of. It was inlaid with countless exquisite gems that she couldn't name, so beautiful that she couldn't bear to put it down. "What are these gems?" Even the usually aloof Yun Fei couldn't help but...
Stop and ask, then touch it with your hand, and you will find it is polished smooth and has clear edges and corners.
"There are everything." Feng Yuheng pointed at the stones and said, "Look, mother, there are pink crystal, turquoise, citrine, amethyst, as well as gold and silver ornaments. The one in the middle is a cat's eye." As she spoke, she pointed to a place and told Yun Fei, "Mother, press here."
Concubine Yun was surprised, and pressed lightly along the place where her finger was. Suddenly, the small round thing in her hand opened. Then she found that a beautiful face appeared clearly inside the small thing.
Concubine Yun was so frightened that she almost threw the thing away, but she felt that the beautiful face was very familiar, so she couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and suddenly realized - "Isn't this me?" In a hurry, she even forgot to call herself "This is... a mirror?"
Feng Yuheng nodded. This was a very common small round mirror in the 21st century. It was inlaid with various small stones on the outside and had two round lenses inside. One was normal in proportion and the other was magnified. She had bought a few because she thought they were beautiful and threw them in the drawer of the pharmacy. Before entering the palace, she decided to give one to Concubine Yun. As a woman, of course you have to cater to her preferences. Moreover, there was no such mirror in this era. Bronze mirrors were blurry and not as clear as the reflection in the water.
"My daughter-in-law once worshipped a Persian master, and before he returned to Persia, he left some good things behind. My daughter-in-law saw that this mirror was small and exquisite, so she thought of bringing it to my mother." Persia, a country that only exists in legends, was used by her to get rare objects, and it always worked.
Concubine Yun was very pleased with it, and she discovered that the other side of the mirror had a magnifying function. She couldn't help but sigh: "Persian craftsmen are really ingenious. They can make such a wonderful thing. I guess there are not many people in the Dashun Dynasty who have this thing, right?"
Feng Yuheng dared to guarantee: "One for the only mother concubine."
Concubine Yun was very happy, and she pulled Feng Yuheng aside and said, "If Ming'er bullies you in the future, you can come to the palace to complain to me. If that doesn't work, you can tell your seventh brother, and he will listen to us two."
Feng Yuheng covered her mouth and chuckled, thinking that women's friendship really had to be maintained with gifts.
"Thank you, mother." She thanked him obediently, and then remembered that Concubine Yun's attitude last time was obviously to be close to the Yao family, so she told Concubine Yun that Zirui was accepted as Ye Rong's disciple, and that the younger generation of the Yao family could participate in the imperial examination.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Yun just snorted and said, "The Yao family would not participate in the imperial examination at this time. If you don't believe me, just wait and see."
