With this voice, everyone turned their heads to look and saw the third prince Xuan Tianye walking towards them quickly.
At that moment, everyone knelt down to pay homage, and shouted in unison: "Long live His Majesty the King of Xiang!"
Xuan Tianye waved his hand, "Everyone, please stand up. I am here to see Prime Minister Feng off. No need to be polite." Then he took a few steps forward and stood in front of Feng Jinyuan, "Prime Minister Feng."
Feng Jinyuan was very excited when he saw Xuan Tianye, but he tried his best to calm down and said respectfully: "Your Highness Prince Xiang is personally seeing you off. I am extremely terrified."
Xuan Tianye waved his hand and said, "Prince Feng has traveled thousands of miles to the disaster area to share the worries of his father and benefit the people of the world. I am unable to help, so I can only come to see him off. I wish that everything goes well for him and that the disaster situation can be alleviated under his command."
"I will do my best to live up to the high expectations of His Majesty and the Prince."
Xuan Tianye nodded, and his eyes followed Feng Jinyuan to the group of family members gathered at the gate of Feng Mansion.
Feng Yuheng looked at each other coldly, just as he had just encountered her.
Xuan Tianye nodded slightly at her, then turned his gaze and said to Chenyu, "I heard that Miss Feng caught a cold a few days ago. I wonder if she is feeling better now?"
When Feng Chenyu saw that the Third Prince specifically mentioned her and showed concern for her, she couldn't help but feel excited. She raised her eyes slightly, gave him a captivating expression, and said softly, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I'm much better now."
At this time, Fendai suddenly said, "Big sister, you don't have a cold at all."
This one sentence shocked everyone in the Feng Mansion so much that their faces turned pale. Even Feng Jinyuan trembled a little, fearing that his daughter would speak without restraint.
Seeing this, An Shi hurried to smooth things over: "Girls are sick, it's just a cold, Miss Fourth is still young and doesn't understand this, you will understand when you grow up, who doesn't get sick a few days a month."
After hearing what An said, the Feng family finally breathed a sigh of relief. Xuan Tianye also understood what was going on, and when he looked at Chen Yu again, there was a little more pity in his eyes.
Chenyu hated Fendai so much that she broke out in a cold sweat. Damn girl! She was secretly competing with herself in her heart, "After a month, I won't have to be afraid of anything anymore. You'll be in trouble then!"
She was secretly resentful, while on the other side, Xuan Tianye was saying to Feng Jinyuan: "I will personally escort Prime Minister Feng to the North City Gate today. Since I cannot go to the North Realm with Prime Minister Feng, I will do this to show my gratitude!"
After he said this, the ministers who came to the gate of Feng Mansion to see him off also said, "Let's go to the north gate to see Prime Minister Feng off together."
All outsiders had to be escorted to the city gate, so the Feng family naturally couldn't just turn around and go back, so the female members of the family followed the farewell team and walked towards the north gate of the city.
Along the way, Feng Jinyuan was chatting with the Third Prince. Feng Yuheng stood in the back and could neither hear nor see clearly. All he could hear were Han's occasional giggles and Jin Zhen's faint sobs.
The group finally arrived at the north gate in a mighty procession, and Feng Jinyuan stood up again to say goodbye to everyone.
Feng Yuheng accidentally watched a group of officials chatting together. She took two steps back and saw someone waving at her next to the city gate. She looked carefully and remembered that person. It was Wang Zhuo who had accompanied her all the way out of the city that day.
Seeing that she saw him, Wang Zhuo quickly trotted over here, and when he got close, he saluted to Feng Yuheng: "This little one greets the county lady."
Feng Yuheng nodded, "Are you on duty today?"
"That's right." Wang Zhuo smiled innocently and asked, "I haven't seen the county lady since that day. I wonder if the Seventh Prince's foot injury has healed?"
"It's all right now." Feng Yuheng smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for that day."
"What the county lady said is not true." Wang Zhuo shook his head quickly. "I later learned how many good things the county lady had done for the disaster-stricken refugees. It is a great honor for us to be able to help the county lady once."
During the few simple words between the two, Feng Jinyuan had already said goodbye to everyone and got on the imperial envoy's sedan chair to leave the city.
A group of officials and officials bowed and saw them off from behind. Even Xuan Tianhua looked at the team with a solemn expression.
But only Feng Fendai looked nowhere else but at Feng Yuheng, especially at the words she had just accidentally heard, which seemed a little wrong no matter how she thought about it.
It sounded like something was going on between her second sister and the Seventh Prince. Was the Seventh Prince injured? Why didn't anyone else mention this? Where was he injured?
Originally, Feng Yuheng had no intention of avoiding other people's conversation and being overheard by Feng Fendai. People with ulterior motives naturally would not think it was simple. The girl rolled her eyes and turned around to rub against Feng Chenyu.
Chenyu had been unhappy because of what Fendai had said to the Third Prince at the gate of the mansion. Now that she saw Fendai approaching her, she knew that something bad was going to happen. She had been told by the Shen family in the morning not to lose her temper in front of others again, and to return to her former gentle and kind appearance, and win back the hearts of the people she had lost during this period.
She repeated the words of the Shen family several times in her mind, and then looked at the powdered girl who had come close to her. A smile appeared on her face, but her face, which was originally the most beautiful in the world, lost a lot of its luster after being coated with the black rouge from Western Xinjiang.
"Fourth sister will be eleven after the Chinese New Year, and she will be a big girl. I happen to have a pair of earrings in my room that would be perfect for you. I'll give them to you tomorrow."
Fen Dai's eyes lit up. No matter what, she still wanted the good things from Feng Chenyu. Among the young ladies of the Feng family, she was the poorest. Even An had her own shop outside to subsidize her. But Han was brought up from a brothel. Not only did she have nothing, but it was said that Feng Jinyuan had helped her pay off a lot of debts. She felt depressed when she thought of this. Today, she was so shabby, all because of that disappointing mother.
"Fendai thanks you, big sister." No matter how she mocked others before, she immediately smiled as soon as she saw the benefits. Chenyu thought to herself, this fourth sister is really good at changing her expression.
"I will bring them to my sister when I pay my respects to my grandmother tomorrow. The earrings are made of pink jade and are very delicate and beautiful."
The more Fen Dai listened, the happier she became. She couldn't help but move closer to Feng Chenyu, and even reached out to hold Chenyu's arm. They looked like a pair of close sisters. Even Feng Yuheng, who was watching from a distance behind her, couldn't help but curl her lips and whispered to Xiangrong beside her: "Stay away from Fen Dai in the future."
Xiangrong and Fendai were not very close since they were young. The two sisters had very different personalities. Although Fendai was the younger sister, they were born in the same year and basically bullied Xiangrong all the way. As for the advice to stay away from Fendai, even if Feng Yuheng didn't say it, Xiangrong would always follow it.
"I will listen to you, second sister." As she spoke, she glanced at Han, who was always beaming with joy, and then said to Feng Yuheng, "Father stayed in Aunt Han's yard last night. Second sister, do you think father has started to favor Aunt Han again? Has Aunt Jin Zhen fallen out of favor?" Although Feng Yuheng had never told her about his relationship with Jin Zhen, she knew that Jin Zhen had spoken for Feng Yuheng several times, which made her feel that this aunt was much better than Han.
Feng Yuheng had also heard the news. Moreover, Han had acted so close to Feng Jinyuan this morning. She was not blind, so how could she not understand the mentality of such a powerful villain?
"Never mind her. Unless Aunt An still wants to compete for favor, it doesn't matter who is favored. But once Han turns over, we have to be more cautious."
Xiangrong nodded and said nothing more. At this time, Feng Fendai was holding Chenyu's arm and said to her mysteriously, "Big sister, I heard that the Seventh Prince was injured. Do you know about this?"
Feng Chenyu was startled and stopped walking. "What did you say? Who? Who's injured?"
Fendai pretended to be surprised: "Big sister doesn't know?"
Chen Yu was anxious, "Hurry up and tell me!"
Fendai pulled her and said, "Let's talk while we walk. If we stand here, we will be noticed." She looked around deliberately, and then came back to Chenyu and whispered, "Just now I heard my second sister talking to a soldier guarding the city. The soldier asked her if the Seventh Prince's injury had healed. My second sister also said something like thank you for that day. It sounds like the Seventh Prince went out with my second sister a few days ago and was injured."
"Where is he injured? Is it serious?" Chen Yu's heart immediately tightened when she heard that Xuan Tianhua was injured.
Fendai shook her head and said, "I don't know. Seeing how mysterious they were talking, this matter should be kept secret." She pondered for a while and then said, "When did the second sister go out with His Highness the Seventh Prince? I heard that His Highness Prince Yu has been in the camp. Does that mean she went out alone with His Highness the Seventh Prince?"
Feng Fendai's words were ambiguous in themselves, and they took on a different meaning when heard by Chenyu's ears.
Feng Yuheng was actually dominating the Ninth Prince while being involved with the Seventh Prince? Chenyu's eyebrows were tightly twisted together, and she felt Xuan Tianhua's figure constantly swaying in front of her. How could such a person get hurt? Feng Yuheng, aren't you a doctor? Why would he get hurt when he was with a doctor?
"Big sister." Fendai saw that Chenyu's face was getting colder, and she was very happy. It was the most beneficial for her that Feng Chenyu and Feng Yuheng, two people who had been legitimate daughters, were fighting to the death. "Do you think the second sister will fall in love with the seventh prince?"
Chen Yu's heart skipped a beat. Feng Yuheng fell in love with Xuan Tianhua? It was possible. How many people in the world would not like a beautiful man like Xuan Tianhua?
But……
Yilin also noticed the change in Chenyu's mood and couldn't help but secretly pull her sleeve. Seeing Chenyu looking at her, she gave her a warning look, and Chenyu immediately became much more sober.
"What are you talking about, Fourth Sister? You must not say such things carelessly." She came to her senses, and the anger on her face faded away in an instant. She turned to persuade Fendai: "Second Sister and Prince Yu are a perfect match. She and the Seventh Prince call each other Seventh Brother."
Feng Fendai did not give up and asked again: "Then why did you speak like that to that soldier just now?"
"It must be that Fourth Sister misheard, or she didn't hear it completely. Anyway, I believe Second Sister, and I believe Seventh Prince even more."
Feng Fendai looked at Chenyu in confusion. She thought Chenyu was deliberately acting like a good person, but when she saw the look on her face, she felt that Chenyu was serious.
"Do you really believe Feng Yuheng?" She asked again unwillingly.
Chenyu nodded, "Yes." She didn't want to continue this topic. She didn't know how long she could hold back her frustration, and it was not good to vent it in front of Fendai. So she turned her head to look elsewhere, but she saw the scene behind her. She couldn't help but pull the corner of her lips, pointed at that place and said to Fendai: "Fourth sister, look, what is Aunt Han doing?"
