After leaving the house, Fendai ran straight to Chenyu's courtyard. When she arrived, Yilin was teaching a maid a lesson. When she saw Fendai, she hurried over to greet her: "Why is the fourth young lady here? I pay my respects to the fourth young lady."
Fendai looked at Yilin and smiled maliciously, "That's true. When I came to my elder sister's yard before, I was always afraid that people would say behind my back that I was trying to curry favor with my elder sister. But now, my elder sister and I have the same status and position. Isn't it my duty to spend more time with her?"
Yilin's face changed, but he didn't dare to refute. This Feng Fendai sometimes really makes people feel like a mad dog, biting whoever she sees. "What are you talking about, Fourth Miss, you can come over and chat, the eldest lady is so happy, Fourth Miss, please come in!"
Yilin led Fendai into Chenyu's room. Chenyu in the room was staring at the black rouge on the table. It was not until the two of them came close that she reacted. She was startled by Fendai's sudden voice.
"What are you thinking about, big sister? Why are you so absorbed in it?"
Chenyu looked at Fendai and immediately thought of the matter about Xuan Tianhua. She wanted to ask Fendai a few more questions, but Yilin gave her a warning look, so she held back the words that were on the tip of her tongue. She put on a friendly smile and said to Fendai, "It snowed today. Why didn't Fourth Sister wear a cloak when she went out? Be careful not to get frozen."
"Big sister, such a big thing has happened, why are you still sitting in the room?" Fendai looked down upon Chenyu's bodhisattva face the most. She found a chair and sat down, staring at Chenyu.
Chen Yu was stunned by her incoherent words, "What happened?"
Fendai was surprised and asked, "Big sister, don't you know?"
Yilin frowned and interrupted, "It's snowing today, and the young lady has been staying in her room and has never gone out."
"Then one of the servants should ask about it!" Fendai glanced at Yilin and shook her head, saying, "How can such an inattentive servant serve the master well?"
Yilin was very angry at what she said, but he couldn't do anything. After all, Chenyu was no longer a legitimate daughter, and the status of servants like them had been downgraded as well.
Chenyu didn't understand what Fendai was talking about, but she knew something must have happened, so she couldn't help but ask anxiously, "Ignore the servants, tell me first, what happened?"
Fen Dai came forward, her face was very close to Chen Yu, almost touching her nose. Chen Yu was not used to it, and was about to move back when she heard Fen Dai say, "Feng Yu Heng has locked up His Highness the Seventh Prince in Tongsheng Pavilion for several days."
The girl who came with Fendai couldn't help but say in her heart: The Fourth Miss is really good at instigating and framing others. She clearly said that she saw the Seventh Prince enter the County Lord's Mansion this morning, but how come the Fourth Miss said that "the Seventh Prince has been locked up in Tongshengxuan for several days"?
However, such lies successfully aroused Chenyu's anger. She stood up suddenly, her eyes wide open, and her voice became sharp and changed its tone - "What did you say?"
Fen Dai secretly said "very good" in her heart, but she said with more strength: "Last time I told big sister that Feng Yuheng and the Seventh Prince were together and that the Seventh Prince was injured, but big sister didn't believe it. But now? Her county lady's mansion has been closed to visitors for several days, and even the daughter of Bai Qiaojiang's family is not allowed to approach, but the Seventh Prince is free to come and go. Oh, no, he only came in, but didn't leave. The two of them closed the door of the mansion and stayed in the house. I don't know what they are doing!"
"Are you serious?" Feng Chenyu's face turned green.
"Of course it's true!" Fendai poked the maid beside her, "Did you see it with your own eyes? Tell big sister quickly."
The maid had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply, "It is true that I saw the Seventh Prince enter Tongsheng Pavilion with my own eyes." She did not say when he entered. If she were asked to follow the Fourth Young Lady in framing such an otherworldly and celestial man, the maid would feel like she would be struck by lightning the next moment.
"How could this happen?" Chenyu murmured subconsciously, her face becoming more and more angry, but Feng Fendai kept adding fuel to the fire - "Second sister is really too much. Although she doesn't live in the Feng Mansion, she is still the daughter of the Feng family. She did such a thing before she got married. If this gets to the ears of outsiders, how can we go out and meet people in the future? What's more, the reputation of the mansion has been ruined by her. Who would be willing to marry us?"
Chen Yu felt like she was about to explode with anger. She didn't care whether they were close or not, and it didn't matter whether they had a good reputation or not. Her mind was now filled with thoughts about Xuan Tianhua in Tongshengxuan.
A person like that was actually locked up in Feng Yuheng's yard for several days. What on earth did Feng Yuheng want to do?
Fendai watched Chenyu's face become more and more distorted, and she felt happier and happier. She couldn't help but say, "We are both legitimate daughters of the Feng family. When the eldest sister was the legitimate daughter, she was so kind to us sisters. Everyone in the family was happy. At that time, mother was also..."
"Stop talking!" Chenyu closed her eyes and tried very hard to control her emotions so as not to burst out in front of Fandai. "Fourth sister, what is the purpose of coming to tell me all this today?"
Fendai also stood up and said, "I just don't want the dirty things done by Second Sister to tarnish the entire Feng Mansion, so I would like to ask Big Sister to come up with the idea. What should we do about this matter?"
Fendai saw that Chenyu was in a state of uncertainty and kicked the ball in front of her. Chenyu was just as she thought, she was angry. When she heard what Fendai said, she said without thinking, "I can't make the decision now. I still have to report it to my grandmother."
Fendai nodded, "Then big sister, please come with me to Shuya Garden!"
Yilin frowned and gently pulled Chenyu's sleeve. Chenyu's heart moved slightly, and she quietly retracted her foot that was about to be raised. After thinking for a while, she said, "It's snowing today, and grandma's back disease will get worse the colder the weather. Why don't we talk about it when we pay our respects tomorrow, and don't bother her today."
"That's fine." Fendai didn't bother with her for a day or two. "As long as big sister remembers this matter, Fendai will go back first. Oh, big sister, don't worry too much. It's broad daylight, and Feng Yuheng won't dare to do anything out of line."
Chenyu's mood, which had just calmed down a little, was immediately provoked again. Fortunately, Fendai left quickly, otherwise, she would have changed her mind after just saying it.
Yilin personally escorted Fendai out of the yard, and when he saw her walking away, he hurried back and came to Chenyu and advised her earnestly, "Miss, you must not do this! Let alone whether what the fourth lady said is true or false, even if it is true, you can't make things difficult for the second lady at this time. Think about it, if the second lady is really punished, or has other problems, wouldn't your two million taels of silver be wasted?"
Chenyu was startled, and then she realized that two million taels of silver was a small matter. She understood what Yilin meant. If something happened to Feng Yuheng, who would treat her?
"You're right." Chenyu let out a long breath and sat down slowly. "I was almost angered by that girl. Feng Yuheng can't fall. At least, before I accomplish my business, she must be the legitimate daughter of the Feng family and nothing can happen to her."
Although he said that, the ferocious look on his face still existed, which frightened Yilin.
At noon the next day, the snow stopped, and everyone in the Feng residence gathered in Shuya Garden to pay their respects to the old lady.
The old lady had already dressed neatly, and was preparing to go to the Plum Garden with the help of Madam Zhao. When she saw everyone coming over there, she was a little stunned.
"What? Aren't you going to sing today?" She said as she looked outside. "Hasn't the snow stopped? I think the sun is shining brightly. It shouldn't be very cold." As she spoke, she looked at Han, wanting her to speak up. After all, it was she who asked the troupe to come to the house.
Han didn't say anything, but An took over the conversation - "Madam, it was the fourth young lady who asked us to come here, saying that she had something to say."
The old lady's face darkened when she heard this. Her instinct told her that Feng Fendai's interference was bound to bring bad things, and she was afraid that she would not be able to listen to the play today.
She rolled her eyes at Fendai, and reluctantly asked Aunt Zhao to help her sit in the main seat, then said, "Okay, you all sit down too." She looked at Fendai again and took the initiative to ask, "What do you want?"
Fendai cleared her throat, glanced at Chenyu first, and then said, "Let big sister speak."
Chenyu looked at her in confusion, "Fourth sister asked us to come to Shuya Garden, why did she ask me to speak again?"
Fen Dai rolled her eyes fiercely and thought to herself, Feng Chenyu, you just keep pretending, but what's the point of putting on a kind face at this time?
Although she was complaining in her heart, she didn't bother to argue with Chen Yu. She said, "I haven't seen my second sister in the past few days. Come to think of it, my second sister hasn't come here since my father left Beijing, right?"
The old lady saw that she was talking about Feng Yuheng again, and she couldn't help but feel annoyed: "If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you talking about nothing?"
Fendai looked aggrieved. "How can this be nonsense? What I want to talk to grandma about today is exactly about my second sister."
When they heard that it was related to Feng Yuheng, everyone present frowned except Han and Chenyu who knew about it. An knew that Fendai was going to cause trouble again, but due to her status, she couldn't say anything. Xiangrong took over the conversation and said, "Second sister has something going on in the mansion. She sends a maid to pay respects to grandmother every day and brings all the medicine that grandmother needs. Fourth sister, what do you want to say?"
Hearing Xiangrong's words, Fendai got angry again, but her eyes rolled and a smile appeared on her lips. She looked at Xiangrong and suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "Didn't Third Sister get a dress from His Highness the Seventh Prince at the last palace banquet? I still remember that Third Sister looked really good in it. His Highness the Seventh Prince really cares for Third Sister."
When Xiangrong heard her mention this, her face turned red and she lowered her head.
Chen Yu saw it and clenched her teeth even tighter.
"A man like the Seventh Prince is like a god. No ordinary person would dare to get involved with him. It's only natural that the Third Sister would be tempted. But..." She looked at Chen Yu and saw that she had no intention of speaking. She could only finish her words by herself - "No matter how good a person is, he or she can't escape being seduced by evil intentions!"
Xiangrong was shocked: "What does Fourth Sister mean by this?"
Fendai stopped keeping the secret and stood up, leaning towards the old lady and complaining, "Grandmother, my second sister's county mansion has been closed to visitors these days. Some people saw with their own eyes that even the Bai family's legitimate daughter could not enter, but some people also saw that the Seventh Prince was not blocked from entering and leaving the county mansion. Moreover, the Seventh Prince never came out after entering, and it has been many days in a row!"
"What?" The old lady was shocked. "You said that the Seventh Prince has been in the County Lord's Mansion for a few days?"
Fendai nodded, "Yes, the girl next to my granddaughter saw it with her own eyes, and I know about it too." Then she turned to look at Feng Chenyu, "Big sister, am I right?"
I thought Chenyu would nod in agreement and then join her in suing Feng Yuheng for misconduct.
Unexpectedly, Chenyu looked at her strangely, blinked her innocent eyes and asked her back: "I have never heard of what Fourth Sister said!" [End of this chapter]
