The difference was that he would marry the women he wanted before, but now he only married them into the family and was unwilling to even touch them. As a result, there were more and more concubines in the palace, and those women had nothing to do, so they gathered together to chat and said that the fifth prince was not good enough and could not do what a man should do.
These words had reached his ears, but Xuan Tianyan didn't care. He really didn't care what those women said about him. However, Xiang Rong's words just now made him take them to heart.
Feng Fendai's appearance reappeared in his mind, as well as the pool of blood that Xiangrong had vomited. Xuan Tianyan was worried. He waved his hand and said impatiently to the woman beside him: "You don't need to ask where I am going. Go back to the mansion by yourself. Or you can go wherever you want. I have no right to control you. In short, don't follow me."
After he finished speaking, he ignored the other person and walked towards the direction where Feng Fendai lived. The woman stood there watching, her face full of hatred, her silver teeth almost breaking.
Damn it! She tried every possible means to marry a prince and stand out among so many women in the prince's mansion, so that he would treat her better than others. She thought that if she worked hard for another year or two, she would finally be able to succeed, right? But she didn't expect that the fifth prince Xuan Tianyan would turn against her at any time. A woman who vomited blood inexplicably on the street could make her abandoned in an instant. She was unwilling to accept it. Feng Xiangrong? I heard that she was the sister of Feng Fendai, so the fifth prince must have gone to find Feng Fendai. She calculated in her mind that if Guan was not allowed to follow, she would follow him. She wanted to see what kind of woman Feng Fendai was, who could fascinate the fifth emperor so much.
Xuan Tianyan went straight to Feng Fendai's courtyard. He used to come to see her secretly at night, but never dared to meet her openly during the day. Because Feng Fendai's mouth was too poisonous. In order to make him give up and drive him away, the girl could say anything. And he was a man after all! How could he bear such harsh words?
But today was different, Xuan Tianyan thought, this was all thanks to meeting Feng Xiangrong, and also thanks to the blood that Feng Xiangrong spat out. He used this incident as an excuse to talk to Feng Fendai, which was always a good excuse. Feng Fendai would at most drive him away, and she wouldn't say anything too unpleasant, right?
As he was thinking this way, he soon arrived at the gate of Feng Fendai's courtyard. By then, Dongying had just returned from shopping, carrying a basket of potatoes and nothing else.
He stared at the basket, feeling very uncomfortable. He reached out and took out a purse from his sleeve pocket. He handed it to Dongying and said, "Don't tell her. Keep it secret and buy her something delicious."
Dong Ying was stunned, staring at the purse, wanting to take it but not daring to. After hesitating for a long time, she finally took it and whispered, "Thank you for your consideration, Your Highness, but you know the young lady's temper. If she finds out about this, she will beat me to death."
"I understand." Xuan Tianyan sighed, "That's why I told you not to tell her. Don't be too obvious when you buy things. Buy good things in batches and don't buy too much at once. If you are more careful, you can always fool her."
Dong Ying nodded, "I understand. Thank you, Fifth Prince. Fifth Prince, this is..." She looked at Xuan Tianyan who was about to enter the courtyard and couldn't help but sigh, "The young lady got angry with the young master again this morning because the young master said he missed the fifth prince very much. If Your Highness doesn't have anything urgent, why not come to see the young lady in a few days? When she calms down, she won't have to say anything unpleasant."
Xuan Tianyan waved his hand, "No need, just today. You go in first and tell her that I am not here to persuade her to reconcile, but I have something serious to discuss with her, and it concerns the Feng family. Ask her to see me. Go quickly!"
Dong Ying was stunned. Feng's matter? But she immediately realized that no matter what it was, as long as it was a serious matter, the young lady might really agree to meet. If the two of them could reach an agreement this time, it would be a great thing. So she quickly put the purse into her sleeve pocket and trotted all the way to find Feng Fendai to report.
Not long after, Xuan Tianyan was invited into the courtyard by Feng Fendai, but he didn't know that the concubine, who he thought had been sent away, was actually following him quietly.
There were not many servants in Feng Fendai's yard, and naturally there was no concierge, so it was easy for the woman to enter the yard. Xuan Tianyan was so focused on finding Feng Fendai and telling her that he had seen Feng Xiangrong that he did not notice someone behind him until he stood opposite Feng Fendai. Suddenly, he felt a gust of wind coming from behind him, carrying a fragrance. In a moment of distraction, Feng Fendai was suddenly knocked down by someone. A woman was pinching Feng Fendai's neck tightly. Her face was no longer full of charm, but was full of terrifying ferocity.
Feng Fendai was so frightened by the sudden attack that she didn't even notice when she hit the back of her head when she fell to the ground. She only came to her senses when her throat was strangled and she was almost suffocated. Her first thought was: Xuan Tianyan was finally enraged and sent someone to kill her?
But she felt something was wrong, because the woman who was riding on her had killed people in such a shameful way. If Xuan Tianyan wanted to kill someone, he would never let a woman strangle her to death like this. He should have sent a secret guard to stab her to death with a sword in the dead of night!
As she thought about this, her brain was actually suffocated by the strangulation of her throat. She saw Dongying desperately trying to pull the woman away, but the force on her neck did not ease at all. It was getting more and more difficult to breathe. Fendai thought, if it only took a little longer, she would die, right?
But people say that death is a relief, but she doesn't think there is anything good about dying. After she dies, she will see Feng Jinyuan, Feng Chenyu, Shen Shi, Feng Zihao, and the old lady. So many people she doesn't want to see will see them, it's so scary. Fen Dai thought, she finally managed to crawl out of the hell of the Feng family, how could she go back?
The desire to survive revived, but Fen Dai couldn't breathe, her face was flushed, and her eyes seemed to be about to burst out of their sockets. She saw Xiao Bao running out from somewhere, jumping to the woman and biting her with his teeth. She wanted to tell Xiao Bao not to do that, be careful not to hurt yourself, but at this moment, the woman suddenly stopped moving, and the whole person seemed to be still, with an unbelievable expression on her face. After a while, a lot of blood gushed out from the corner of her mouth.
The hands that were restraining her neck finally loosened. Feng Fendai was breathing heavily and coughing continuously, but she also saw the tip of the sword piercing through the woman's heart.
The woman died, lying sideways on the ground. Dongying screamed, and she saw Xuan Tianyan stabbing the woman in the back with a long sword.
Fendai suddenly started crying, not because she had survived the ordeal, but because when she was on the verge of death, she saw so many people trying to keep her alive: Dongying, Xiaobao, and Xuantianyan.
"Don't cry." A strong arm held her tightly in his arms, and Xuan Tianyan said, "I'm sorry, I want to protect you with all my heart, but I always let you get hurt. Fendai! You act like a spoiled child, and I act like a spoiled child too, but then I think about it again, you are a little girl, so you can act like a spoiled child, I will just give in. But I am a grown man, and I actually act like a spoiled child with you, competing with you, tell me, am I too irresponsible? Fendai! Let's not make trouble, okay? You say, isn't life about having a partner? When you are young, you quarrel and bicker, and when you are old, you have children and grandchildren around you, and you can still dislike each other as a joke. How good is this! It doesn't matter if you have a bad temper. From now on, I have a good temper, and I will give in to you in the future. You can hit and scold me, but don't say you want to break up, okay?"
Xuan Tianyan's body trembled when he said this. He was dumbfounded when the woman rushed out and knocked Fendai down. He didn't react for a while and didn't know what to do. In the blink of an eye, Xiaobao had already jumped on the woman and bit her ear.
Xuan Tianyan then realized that his beloved was about to be strangled to death by this woman, and this woman was the concubine he had brought into Prince Li's mansion. With a surging hatred, he drew out his sword and stabbed the concubine in the back without saying a word.
Killing a person is nothing. He told Feng Fendai who was still coughing, "Don't be afraid as long as I am here. Even if I have to kill the heavens and the earth, I just want you to live well."
