The rest of the Feng family didn't know much about what happened at the palace banquet. Feng Jinyuan favored Chenyu and was naturally selective when he spoke. See the first recommendation at Yankuaikanshu. Now that Feng Yuheng said this, people knew that Chenyu not only wore red clothes to enter the palace, but also stole the colorful stones!
An looked at Chenyu and shook her head helplessly: "We can all understand that the eldest lady wants to enter the palace, but why did she frame the master like this? You have to know that this is in front of the emperor and the queen! The slightest mistake will result in death!"
Everyone nodded. Feng Jinyuan knew very well that Chenyu originally wanted to harm Feng Yuheng, but unfortunately he was outsmarted by Feng Yuheng.
"It was your father who didn't put the things away properly. Don't blame your elder sister." Feng Jinyuan wanted to glare at Feng Yuheng when he said this, but he remembered the shock he had received in Shuya Garden before, and his gaze turned back halfway.
Feng Yuheng looked aggrieved, and looked at Feng Jinyuan and said, "Why did father say that? Ah Heng is just a concubine's daughter, how dare she blame her elder sister? Where does father want to put Ah Heng?"
"You..." Feng Jinyuan felt that it was becoming increasingly difficult to communicate with his second daughter. His daughter was not that great, but she was so similar to the ninth prince, calling black white and square round without even blinking an eye.
Feng Yuheng looked at her father's ever-changing expression and felt amused. He was a left-handed prime minister, but he couldn't manage the affairs of his family. He thought that a man should be devoted to the country, but he didn't know that if the family is not harmonious, nothing will be prosperous.
Yao stood beside An, watching her daughter and Feng Jinyuan confront each other, as if she didn't see anything. Occasionally, she would whisper a few words to An, completely ignoring the matter.
An saw this and was also surprised. It seemed that in the past three years in the northwest, it was not only Feng Yuheng who had changed, but also Yao.
"Father." Chenyu, who had been sobbing on the couch, finally spoke. Her pretty face was completely wiped of its makeup, leaving only a pale face. "Now that mother is no longer alive, it doesn't matter whether Chenyu is the legitimate daughter or not. Father, please give the position of legitimate daughter to my second sister. Chenyu... Chenyu will not fight for it."
When she said this, two lines of tears rolled down her cheeks like jade beads and fell onto the brocade quilt, which made Feng Jinyuan feel distressed.
The old lady also sighed and said, "What are you talking about? A legitimate daughter is a legitimate daughter. How can she be changed?"
As soon as she said this, the old lady regretted it and knew she was wrong. She looked at everyone in the room, except Chen Yu and Feng Jinyuan, all of them looked at her in surprise. The message conveyed in their eyes was: Isn't the legitimate daughter of the Feng family replaced one after another?
The old lady turned her head away and didn't look at the crowd. Chenyu paused for a moment and sobbed again: "Father, Chenyu has nothing now. It's better not to be the legitimate daughter."
"Nonsense!" Feng Jinyuan was furious: "You are the legitimate daughter of the Feng family, and this will never change!"
"But……"
"No buts!" Feng Jinyuan warned Chenyu, "You haven't lost anything. Remember, it will remain the same as it was before! Everything you lose will eventually be returned!"
A glimmer of light flashed in Chenyu's eyes, and she looked at Feng Jinyuan expectantly: "That phoenix-headed golden hairpin..."
"Humph!" Feng Yuheng sneered without any politeness. It turned out that he was waiting here.
Chen Yu continued to speak, and every word she said made sense: "Everyone knows what the phoenix-head gold hairpin represents. It was fine when the hairpin was in the palace, but now it is outside the palace. This...what does this make the Third Prince feel?"
After she said this, Feng Jinyuan couldn't help but think about it.
Chen Yu was right. Everyone knew what the phoenix-head golden hairpin represented. It was no secret that a phoenix could make a fish sink to its core and carry the fate of a phoenix. Although it had not been fully disclosed, many people in a small circle still knew about it.
Now that the Phoenix-Head Golden Hairpin has come into being, it has fallen into Feng Yuheng's hands. What does the Third Prince, who the Feng family has already decided to fully support, think?
Feng Jinyuan subconsciously looked at Feng Yuheng, and met Feng Yuheng's mocking gaze. Before he could speak, Feng Yuheng took the initiative to say, "Father, don't you want me to give the phoenix-headed gold hairpin to my elder sister?"
Yao couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so she said, "That was a gift from the Emperor, how can you give it to someone else?"
Feng Jinyuan didn't dare to glare at Feng Yuheng, but he dared to glare at Yao: "Woman, what do you know? You don't have the right to speak here."
"Father, have you forgotten how the Feng family carried my mother into the mansion in a sedan chair carried by eight people?" The gloom on Feng Yuheng's face covered him again.
Feng Jinyuan didn't dare to look at her, but he was holding his breath in his heart, and couldn't help but mutter: "It was the beginning."
"Really?" Feng Yuheng was amused. "It seems that in the future, when father speaks, it's okay to just listen to him at the time, but you can't take him seriously later."
"Ah Heng." The old lady couldn't bear it anymore, "Don't be angry with your father." Her voice was not loud, and it was obvious that she didn't have the confidence.
Feng Yuheng smiled at the old lady, "Then grandma, please judge for yourself."
"What are you talking about?" Feng Jinyuan sat beside Chenyu's bed, comforting her while saying to himself: "If the thing is in your hands, it's yours, and you can naturally give it to others!"
"Father, are you going to rob me?" Feng Yuheng took two steps forward and looked at Feng Jinyuan. He thought this was particularly funny. "A father robs his daughter's things. This is really a rare story! Ah Heng has all the things given by others, even the yard he lives in was given by others. Father, if you like this, just rob them all!" While saying this, he looked at Chenyu: "Big sister, it's boring to just want a phoenix hairpin. My Tongshengxuan is much more magnificent than your yard. Why don't you rob it too?"
"How dare you!" Feng Jinyuan was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, "Why did I give birth to a daughter like you?"
"Then you can't blame me for this." Feng Yuheng raised his lips and sneered, making Feng Jinyuan's face flush red. "You didn't even discuss it with me when you gave birth to me. Now you regret it, who can you blame?"
Feng Jinyuan turned his head away, wanting to scold Feng Yuheng for saying anything, but swallowed the words back when they reached his lips. He really didn't have the courage to talk to this daughter anymore. Sometimes he really doubted whether this was his daughter. The Feng Yuheng in his impression was not like this at all.
He turned to comfort Chenyu: "Don't bother with her, don't worry, what's yours will be yours sooner or later."
Chenyu wiped her tears and nodded, but she heard Feng Yuheng say again: "Really? Father, don't regret it."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and bowed to the old lady: "Ah Heng is not popular here, so I will go back first. Grandma, please take care of your health. When Ah Heng comes to pay his respects tomorrow, please take Grandma's pulse."
The old lady felt relieved. Although this granddaughter was a little fierce, she was generally very good to her. The old lady originally liked the gold and silver jewelry given by Shen, but after Feng Yuheng came back, she gradually lost interest in those things and began to look forward to Feng Yuheng sending her some miraculous medicine from time to time.
The old lady sighed several times, looked at Feng Yuheng's background, then looked at Chen Yu who was still sobbing on the couch, and finally, her eyes fell on Xiang Rong.
But this one look was a shock, and I didn't know when, but I could see an expression on Xiangrong's face that was very similar to Feng Yuheng's. Cold, ruthless, and...desperate.
An noticed that the old lady was looking at Xiangrong and was slightly startled. She stepped forward and blocked Xiangrong's gaze, thus blocking the old lady's gaze.
Xiangrong also lowered her head slightly, her eyes becoming even colder. She had always known that her family was indifferent to each other, and she had seen it clearly time and time again, and she had been disappointed time and time again. This time, she began to despair.
She walked out from behind An, bowed to the old lady, ignored Feng Jinyuan, and followed Feng Yuheng's footsteps and walked out.
But before she could walk far, she heard a loud shout from outside - "The imperial edict has arrived!"
...
Everyone in the Feng family was shocked. Feng Jinyuan stood up first and glanced at Chenyu nervously.
Chenyu was also afraid. She knelt outside the palace gate all night. God knows whether the emperor and the empress would feel unsatisfied and would issue another imperial decree to punish her.
"Father..." She spoke tremblingly, gently pulling Feng Jinyuan's sleeve, her pale face looking pitiful.
Feng Jinyuan patted the back of her hand, "Don't worry, my daughter. Your father is the left prime minister of the dynasty. The emperor will not be too harsh on anything he says. You sit in the room, and your father will go out and take a look."
Under the leadership of Feng Jinyuan, everyone in the Feng Mansion, except Chenyu, went to the front yard.
They left late, and by then, Feng Yuheng was already chatting with the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict.
Feng Jinyuan was stunned when he saw the eunuch. Zhang Yuan? Zhang Yuan was sent to deliver this imperial decree?
"Eunuch Yuan also didn't rest all night, and now he's rushing to deliver the imperial edict. He must be very tired."
"Princess, you are too polite. The emperor has something to ask, and we servants must be loyal to him even if it means sacrificing our lives!"
Zhang Yuan is a top-notch eunuch beside Emperor Tianwu. Generally speaking, he would not personally convey the emperor's orders unless it was a major event. But today he came to Feng Mansion. I really don't know what kind of imperial edict this is.
Feng Jinyuan walked forward quickly and was about to exchange a few words with Zhang Yuan when he came to her side. Zhang Yuan, who had been chatting and laughing with Feng Yuheng, suddenly frowned, the imperial edict in his hand trembled, and he said loudly: "Second Miss Feng Yuheng of the Feng family accepts the edict!"
Feng Jinyuan was startled. Wasn't it sent to Feng Chenyu?
The old lady also glanced at Feng Yuheng. Her intuition told her that this decree must be a reward. She had never planted any roots since Feng Yuheng returned to Beijing. Which thing was not good? Which news was not good news? Now there was another imperial decree. What could it be?
Led by Feng Jinyuan, all the Feng family members knelt on the ground. Zhang Yuan unfolded the imperial edict and read it out in a pretentious tone. The words were still the same, and the procedures were still the same. It was nothing more than approving Feng Yuheng's amazing archery skills at the palace banquet yesterday.
But halfway through the reading, a man who looked like a guard following Zhang Yuan came forward with a bow in his hand.
"The bow of Hou Yi, a treasure unique to the Dashun Kingdom, is now given to the second young lady of the Feng family, Feng Yuheng. Whoever obtains this bow can enter the camp, assist the three armies, help the emperor, and rule the world!"
Everyone was shocked!
Feng Yuheng was stunned, and looked up at the bow in a daze.
The body of the black jade sculpture is made of ice cicada, and it is inlaid with multi-colored gemstones. When held in the hand, it is shiny and seems to be covered by a ball of light mist. It is sacred and mysterious.
"Princess, please accept the order and take the bow!" Zhang Yuan signaled the guards to hold the bow in front of Feng Yuheng, "This is a gift from the emperor, please keep it well. In addition, the emperor has something else to tell you, the phoenix-headed golden hairpin is the same as Houyi's bow, it is a national treasure of Dashun, please keep it well, and don't give it to others! Anyone who covets the phoenix-headed golden hairpin will be guilty of the same crime as stealing."
