Chapter 163 Asking for the Emperor's Grace



The wife of the third prince Xuan Tianye has been ill for the past few years. The imperial doctors have been to her countless times, but they have not been able to find out what is wrong. Read the latest chapter of Perfect World, and you will soon be blinded. Year after year, it is said that she is getting more and more haggard.

Zhang Yuan heard Tianwu's question and took a step forward and replied, "No one can cure Princess Xiang's illness. I heard that she is getting worse recently. I'm afraid she won't survive this winter."

Tianwu frowned and pondered for a while, but his eyes turned to Feng Yuheng.

How could Feng Yuheng not understand the emperor's meaning, so she quickly took the initiative to say, "My daughter-in-law, let's give it a try."

Tianwu was very satisfied with Feng Yuheng's initiative, and asked again: "Are you sure you can cure it?"

Feng Yuheng shook her head, "No, my daughter-in-law has never seen Princess Xiang, and I don't know what disease she has."

"Yes." Tianwu felt that what she said made sense, and said to Zhang Yuan: "Go and inform the queen to let Princess Xuanxiang come to the palace tomorrow. If she is too sick to walk, please bring her in for me."

Zhang Yuan agreed again and ran to the Queen's Palace in person.

Tianwu was old after all, and was a little weak at the moment. Xuan Tianhua personally helped him to the dragon couch in the warm room, and helped him change his clothes, clean his face, and wash his mouth.

Feng Yuheng borrowed the tea room in the side hall of Zhaohe Palace to personally mix a soothing tea.

But in fact, borrowing the tea room was just a cover. Her soothing tea was directly called out from the space. Not only was the quality of the tea better, but most importantly, the tea-making methods and craftsmanship were many times more advanced than those of this era. The tea aroma was stronger and the taste was purer.

A bowl of tea was brought out from the tea room and brought near the dragon couch. When the lid was opened, Tianwu smelled a burst of tea fragrance coming to his nose, but it was not so strong and stimulating, but light and refreshing, making people want to smell it again.

"What kind of tea is this?" He took it and put it under his nose and sniffed for a while, but couldn't smell anything.

"My daughter-in-law prepared it for father to calm his nerves." She avoided the main point and gave a vague explanation.

Tianwu did not find it strange, he took a sip, and it tasted even more fragrant than it smelled. He drank two more sips, and finally could not help but drank the whole bowl of tea in one gulp.

Feng Yuheng smiled and said, "If Father likes it, when Ah Heng returns, I will prepare some more and send them to you in the palace, okay?"

Tianwu looked at her with amusement, "Your father is returning to the capital with a mourning banner. That mourning banner was raised for you and his legitimate son."

Feng Yuheng smiled helplessly and said nothing.

Tianwu said again: "I will also give you a chance. If you can cure Princess Xiang's illness, I will grant you a favor, okay?"

Feng Yuheng took a step back, knelt down, and said solemnly: "The daughter-in-law thanks the emperor for his grace."

This thank you made Tianwu stunned, and then he responded: "What kind of favor do you want from me?"

Feng Yuheng pursed her lips and stopped talking.

Tianwu waved his hand: "Forget it, whatever you want when the time comes, I will agree to it."

Feng Yuheng kowtowed again: "Thank you, father, for allowing your daughter-in-law to treat Princess Xiang."

Tianwu nodded, "She is a smart girl. If you cure the Princess of Xiang, your elder sister who wants to marry into the Prince of Xiang's mansion will have to go through more hardships."

Feng Yuheng just smiled and said nothing.

Tianwu climbed onto the dragon couch. Xuan Tianhua took off his shoes and socks for him. As the brocade quilt was turned over, Tianwu sighed again, "It's better to cure Ming'er's leg than to cure anyone else. When things at home are settled, you can cure Ming'er's leg."

"My daughter-in-law obeys your order."

That night, Xuan Tianhua left the palace and returned to Prince Chun's Mansion, while Xuan Tianming accompanied Concubine Feng Yuheng Yun in Yuehan Palace.

Firstly, she had to meet Concubine Yun when she arrived at the palace, and secondly, Feng Yuheng decided to live in Yuehan Palace. Because apart from the two princes, there were no outsiders in Yuehan Palace, and Concubine Yun was one of them, which was the most suitable for her current status as a refugee.

Feng Yuheng pushed Xuan Tianming all the way. It was still a bit difficult for her twelve-year-old body to push a grown man, especially for the heavy wooden wheelchairs of ancient times, which were very heavy in themselves. Adding Xuan Tianming's weight, it was really a challenge for her.

Feng Yuheng sighed as she walked: "Even if you want to treat your leg, it won't be cured in a short time. I'll change a wheelchair for you another day." She thought of the modern wheelchair in the pharmacy space. It was light and had excellent shock absorption because of its rubber wheels. If Xuan Tianming sat in such a wheelchair, it would be more convenient for her to push it.

Xuan Tianming had no idea about this kind of thing. Anyway, Feng Yuheng asked him to change it, so he nodded and agreed. After thinking about it, he told Feng Yuheng the news that Ban Zou brought back: "Do you want to know how Feng Zihao died?"

Of course she did.

So, Xuan Tianming vividly told her what happened in the Feng family's ancestral home at that time. Of course, these were all said by Wang Chuan and Huang Quan, and he just exaggerated and made it more specific. He wanted to see Feng Yuheng blush after hearing such a thing, but who knew that this girl not only didn't blush, but also shouted excitedly: "So, Feng Zihao finally succeeded? Hahahaha! Xuan Tianming, this is really good news."

He curled his lips. What? How could a twelve-year-old girl react like this when hearing something like this?

But he also expressed his attitude: "Feng Zihao is dead, but Feng Chenyu is still alive. Do you want me to help you deal with her?"

Feng Yuheng shook her head like a rattle: "No, no! If she dares to drug me, her fate should definitely not be as simple as death. Xuan Tianming, just wait and see, I will peel off Feng Chenyu's skin layer by layer in front of everyone!"

She said this with a fierce tone, and her eyes were sharper. Xuan Tianming just turned his head to look at her, and couldn't help but advise her a few words: "You can deal with others, but don't get yourself angry."

She came back to her senses and said with a smile, "Don't worry! I will take it as a pleasure to deal with her. Moreover, I absolutely do not believe that Feng Chenyu and Feng Zihao were the only ones involved in this matter. For example, it is very difficult to tell where Feng Chenyu got the medicine from. We have to keep her to lure out the person behind the scenes."

"You really don't want my help?"

"No need." The corners of her lips rose to a beautiful arc. "Don't interfere with the little intrigues of women. You will lose your status for nothing. But my father said that once I finish dealing with my family affairs, I will start to treat your leg."

"Okay." Xuan Tianming nodded, but also made three rules with her: "But you have to promise me that no matter what happens in the future, you must tell me, and never hide it from me. We will have training in the camp in a few days, and I'm afraid I can't go to Tongshengxuan at night, so you have to be careful."

"It's okay." She answered lightly, "You go about your business. I will come to you if I need anything."

When the two arrived at Yuehan Palace, Concubine Yun had not yet rested and was teasing a cat in the hall below Jinyue Tower.

The cat was gray, chubby, with short and strong limbs, short and dense fur, a big head and a round face. It was very cute.

Feng Yuheng was not very knowledgeable about small animals, but he could tell that this cat was most likely a breed called the British Shorthair in later generations. He could only sigh, could there be British Shorthairs in this era?

She pushed Xuan Tianming forward, then let go of the wheelchair pusher and went forward to greet Concubine Yun: "My daughter-in-law greets my mother. May you be well."

Before Yun Fei could reply, the little fat cat suddenly ran over with a "meow" and rushed directly to Feng Yuheng. If you didn't know, you would think the kitten had seen its mother because of its sticky nature. After Feng Yuheng subconsciously reached out to hug it, it even stretched out its little tongue and licked her a few times.

Concubine Yun couldn't help but exclaimed: "I have been playing with this cat for nearly a month, but I have never seen it get close to me. Even when I feed it, it stays away from me, not to mention wanting to hug it. It seems that you have understood its feelings... well, since we are destined to be together, I will give it to you."

The British Shorthair cat is a very lovable breed. Generally speaking, anyone who is not too averse to small animals can't help but like it.

The same goes for Feng Yuheng.

She was reluctant to let go of the cat after she held it in her arms. When she heard Concubine Yun said she wanted to give it to her, she was overjoyed and quickly leaned over to say, "Thank you, mother, for the reward." Then she thought again, "I wonder if mother has given this cat a name?"

Concubine Yun nodded, "Call me Baozi."

Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianming praised in unison: "It's indeed a great image."

Concubine Yun just smiled and said, "It's just to relieve boredom." Then she looked at Feng Yuheng and got straight to the point: "Are you hiding from me?"

Feng Yuheng replied awkwardly: "To be honest, mother, it is."

"Then stay here. No one comes to Yuehan Palace anyway. You can chat with me and save yourself from feeling bored."

Feng Yuheng wanted to exchange a few more pleasantries with her, but every time he breathed in and out, he could smell something wrong with the fragrance in the hall. He looked around and finally landed his eyes on a giant incense burner in the middle of the hall: "What kind of incense is mother burning?"

Concubine Yun stared at her for a long while before she said, "People who know medicine have good noses. It's nothing, the emperor gave it to you as a reward, I think it's good, so I'll use it."

Feng Yuheng shook her head in disapproval: "Mother, do you know what this incense is used for?"

Concubine Yun sneered, "Of course I know. If you keep hearing about it, you won't be able to have children, so the emperor will do this."

"What else?"

"I age faster than normal people." Yun Fei said this very easily, as if she was talking about someone else, but she didn't know that she had been using this incense for more than a month.

Xuan Tianming was angry, "You still need it even though you know it?"

But she said, "It's better to be older. When you are old, no one will miss you."

"It's been so many years, why are you doing this?" Xuan Tianming was extremely confused by Yun Fei's behavior, "Is it useful to be angry with him like this?"

There was a subtle change on Concubine Yun's face, as if she was lost in memories, but also with a hint of resentment, reluctance, and even ruthlessness.

"Disgusting." She just said this and turned around and left, but she also said as she walked: "You guys go and rest. Don't stay in Jinyue Tower for too long. The little girl can't stand the smell."

Xuan Tianming raised his voice and said to her, "You can't use it anymore!" Anger appeared on his face, and he waved his hand and ordered his servants, "Take away this incense for me! Throw it all away, and don't use it anymore!"

Concubine Yun just said quietly, "It's up to you." Then she left the hall.

Feng Yuheng saw that Xuan Tianming was really angry, and quickly comforted him, "It's okay, I'll prepare another medicinal fragrance later to adjust mother's body, and she will be fine."

Finally, they returned to the resting palace. Xuan Tianming sent her into the room and then left the palace. She stood in front of the window holding the cat named Baozi. The window just happened to face the direction of Feng Mansion. The corners of the girl's lips slightly raised. She really missed her Tongshengxuan.

The next day, before she could pay her respects to Concubine Yun, the maid of Yuehan Palace brought a strange eunuch to stand in front of Feng Yuheng. The eunuch bowed to her and then pinched his voice and said, "Princess Xiang entered the palace early this morning and is now sitting in the Queen's palace. The Queen asked me to invite you over. The sedan chair is ready."
