Huang Quan was stunned, and then he saw Feng Yuheng's finger pointing downwards again, so he held his breath and carefully distinguished.
It was not a big deal to hear this, they just felt a rustling sound, right under the carriage where the two of them were. The sound was very small, if they had not all practiced martial arts and had sharper ears than others, they would not have been able to hear it anyway.
"It's not a human." Feng Yuheng took the initiative to speak, "It should be another living creature." As she spoke, she bent down and stretched out her hand to dig under the seat.
Huang Quan was so frightened that he quickly stopped her: "Miss, be careful!"
But he was still a step too slow. Feng Yuheng's hand had already reached in, and when he took it out, there was an extra gourd in his hand.
The gourd was quite large, longer than half her arm. Huang Quan was stunned. "What is this? Why is there a big gourd under our carriage?"
Feng Yuheng shook her head, "I don't know either, but there's something in this gourd." She shook it as she spoke, and sure enough, the movement inside became louder.
Huang Quan took the gourd and shook it, but then his face changed color: "It's a snake. Miss, there is a snake inside."
"Sure?"
"I was bitten by a snake when I was young, and since then I have been particularly sensitive to snakes. I can conclude that there is a snake in it." Huang Quan frowned slightly when he said this, and it was obvious that he was very afraid of the things in the gourd.
Feng Yuheng actually felt that it should be something soft, but she was not as sure as Huang Quan that it was a snake. However, she was not afraid of snakes, not because she was not afraid of snake venom, but because she studied medicine, so she did not have the psychological barriers to such things like other people.
"Do you want to open it and take a look?" Huang Quan asked her, and then said, "This snake makes a lot of noise. I'm afraid it will jump out once the gourd is opened."
Feng Yuheng thought about it, reached into his sleeve, and took out an anesthetic needle from the space.
"Then let it stop struggling." She said as she moved her hands, inserting the needle directly into the gourd mouth, and then injected the anesthetic solution little by little. After the entire injection was inserted, she shook the gourd again, but only heard the banging sound when it hit the wall of the gourd, and the mollusk that was originally happy had no sound.
Huang Quan was stunned. Why did her daughter carry such a big needle with her? Where did she put it? Wouldn't she be scared?
Feng Yuheng naturally understood what Huang Quan was thinking, but she didn't want to explain at all. She threw the syringe back into the space, which made Huang Quan grin again.
“Let’s see what kind of snake it is.” She opened the gourd and poured it out. Sure enough, a small emerald green snake with a triangular head slid out from it.
The snake was not long, no longer than Feng Yuheng's arm, and had a pair of blood-red eyes with pupils that looked like a vertical line, a bit like a cat. It had a burnt red tail, a large triangular head, a thin neck, and mottled fine scales on its head.
"Bamboo Leaf Green Snake." Feng Yuheng recognized it. She had performed a dissection on this kind of snake when she was in the army.
Huang Quan was afraid of snakes, and when he saw Feng Yuheng holding the snake in his hand without feeling anything, he felt numb all over. But he still felt that this matter was too strange - "Who could put this thing in our car?" As he said this, he turned his head and subconsciously wanted to lift the curtain to see the driver.
Feng Yuheng stopped her, "No need to look. Putting things in the car you drive, that's a cover-up. It's not him."
"Then who else?" Huang Quan really couldn't figure it out and was extremely angry.
Feng Yuheng put the snake back into the gourd, sealed the mouth, and hung it directly around his waist. "Look, I look pretty handsome with such a big gourd hanging on my waist, don't I?"
"Miss!" Huang Quan was helpless, "It's already this hour and you still have the mood to joke around."
"What else can we do? Shall we get off the carriage and fight our enemies?" She patted the gourd on her waist. "Huang Quan, think about it. What kind of person can put things in the carriage without anyone noticing?"
Huang Quan thought about it and tried to answer: "Someone around you?"
Feng Yuheng shook his head. "Think about it from another perspective. If this gourd belongs to us and was originally placed in the carriage, how could someone with ulterior motives take it away?"
Huang Quan understood this time, "Miss, what do you mean... steal? Qingshuang? Was it Qingshuang who did it?"
"The Immortal Master, only she can do this so cleanly and neatly." When she said this, her eyes narrowed into a slit. Since Qingshuang was able to come out to do things, it meant that Xuan Tianye had let her go. Her design to frame the other party did not achieve the expected effect, which was not a good sign.
"In the past five years, there have always been rumors in the martial arts world that Miaoshou Shengxian is the best thief in the world. As long as she takes action, there is nothing she cannot steal. But I didn't expect that such a person would be used by the Third Prince and even sneak into Tongshengxuan." Huang Quan sighed for a while, and thought about it again, and said happily: "Isn't there a saying that the devil is one foot high and the Tao is ten feet high? Such a powerful person failed in front of Miss, which shows that you are the most powerful."
Feng Yuheng smiled bitterly. She was not that powerful. She had experienced the skill of Qingshuang's fingers. If she didn't have the space to cheat, it would be impossible to defend against her. She was afraid that the Phoenix Hairpin would have been stolen a hundred times.
"Miss, what are you going to do next?" Huang Quan glanced at the gourd on her waist. "Are you going to bring this big gourd into Prince Yuan's Palace?"
She raised her eyebrows: "Why not? Have you heard that the more poisonous the snake, the better it is for medicine? Since the Third Prince has sent all the main ingredients to us, wouldn't it be too rude if I don't treat him to a pot of medicinal wine soaked in Bamboo Leaf Green?" She raised the corners of her lips wickedly, "I'm really looking forward to this banquet!"
Finally, the four carriages stopped in front of the Yuan Palace. When she lifted the curtain and got off the carriage, she saw the eldest prince Xuan Tianqi striding towards another carriage. He stopped three steps away from the carriage with great courtesy, then bowed to the carriage and said, "I have been here to pay my respects to Miss Feng for a long time. I forgot that Miss Feng would honor me with you."
Huang Quan leaned close to Feng Yuheng and whispered, "Your Highness, it seems quite true."
Looking at Xuan Tianqi, he took the initiative to extend his arm as soon as the curtain of Chenyu's carriage was lifted. Chenyu, who had already stood at the entrance of the carriage, paused slightly, but finally got off the carriage with his arm. This action caused all the ladies watching at the gate of the mansion to gasp.
When did the eldest daughter of the Feng family become related to the eldest prince?
Feng Yuheng led Wang Chuan to the gate of the mansion first, without even looking over there. He only heard Fen Dai, who got off the carriage later, yelling, "Big sister, please know some etiquette."
Then Xuan Tianqi replied: "I have invited you openly in front of everyone, and Miss has honored you. What does this have to do with etiquette? Miss, please be kind. Although I have always had a good temper, I will not tolerate anyone talking about me."
Fendai fell silent afterwards. Huang Quan sneered and said, "The fourth young lady of the Feng family really doesn't know her place."
At this time, a maid from Prince Yuan's Mansion had come forward to lead the way for the two of them. The two of them walking past attracted a lot of attention, and all of these eyes finally fell on the big gourd on Feng Yuheng's waist.
"Fairy sister!" A clear child's voice suddenly rose, and Feng Yuheng saw a round meatball running down the path and suddenly pounced on her. "Fairy sister, why did you come just now? Feiyu missed you so much!"
She reached out and pinched Xuan Feiyu's cheek, "You've gained weight again!"
Huang Quan smiled and said, "Greetings to the little grandson." Then he took out something from his cloak like a magic trick, "This is the birthday gift your fairy sister prepared for you, come and see if you like it." As he spoke, he handed the thing to Xuan Feiyu, and at the same time added, "The one prepared by the Feng family has been given to the servants in the mansion."
Meatball unwrapped presents...
While pouting, she said, "I won't look at the unified preparations. Most of them are useless. I only want the gifts prepared by the fairy sister."
Feng Yuheng's gift was in a wooden box, wrapped in a layer of wrapping paper that she found in the space, and it looked pretty.
When Xuan Feiyu finally opened the box, he was dumbfounded when he saw the things inside, "What are these?"
"Try it." Feng Yuheng looked at the child with a smile, "Try a little bit of everything."
In fact, she just unsealed all the snacks in the space, poured most of each into the box, and finally put together a full box.
Xuan Feiyu had only eaten the chocolate given by Feng Yuheng before. As for other things like potato chips, marshmallows, beef jerky, etc., he had never seen them before.
The child took just one bite and felt like he had found a treasure. He held the box tightly and was reluctant to eat more.
"You really are a fairy." He exclaimed, "Food this delicious can only be found in heaven, right?"
"If you say so, then it is." Feng Yuheng smiled and rubbed his face again, "Let's go, take sister to the banquet."
"Okay." Xuan Feiyu took Feng Yuheng's hand and walked forward, but soon his eyes focused on the big gourd, and he couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's in it?"
She smiled and replied, "It's something my sister is going to give to your third uncle."
"Oh." After all, he was a child and was easier to coax. When he heard that it was not for him, he stopped asking questions and just hugged the snack box and laughed foolishly.
The banquet of Prince Yuan's Mansion was prepared in Feiyun Hall. When they arrived, most of the guests had already taken their seats. Feng Yuheng glanced around and saw that the third prince Xuan Tianye, the fourth prince Xuan Tianyi and the prince Xuan Tianyan were already sitting in the innermost seat closest to the main seat. She rejected Xuan Feiyu's enthusiastic invitation and just sat down in an inconspicuous position. Then she said to Xuan Feiyu: "Go to your father and mother quickly. You are the protagonist today. Everyone is here to celebrate your birthday. You have to show your spirit. You can't always rely on me. It's ridiculous for nothing."
Xuan Feiyu understood this logic, so he advised her like a little adult: "Then take care of yourself, I will come back to see you." Then he jumped away again.
At this time, the eldest prince Xuan Tianqi and his entourage also walked in, and the person accompanying her was Feng Chenyu.
Everyone quickly stood up and kowtowed. Xuan Tianqi tried to dissuade them, "My nephew is the protagonist today. You and I don't need to be so polite." As he spoke, he half turned around and looked at Chen Yu who was accompanying him, and said, "We have already entered the main hall. Miss Feng, please take off your bamboo hat."
Chenyu leaned forward towards him and said, "Chenyu has been punished by the Queen Mother. When she goes out, she must apply the black rouge from Western Xinjiang. I hope His Royal Highness Prince Jing will not be surprised when he sees this."
"That's fine." Xuan Tianqi waved his hand. "Miss Feng's elegance can't be hidden by a layer of black rouge."
"Thank you, Your Highness." As she spoke, Chenyu gently raised her hand, held up the hat on her head and slowly took it off.
As the hat was removed, the whole set of crystal head ornaments was instantly revealed in front of everyone, which unsurprisingly caused a burst of exclamations, and some young ladies even screamed out loud.
Chenyu's vanity instantly swelled to its peak. The humiliation she had suffered under Feng Yuheng's suppression in the past six months seemed to come back to her all at once, and the sense of honor of being the legitimate daughter of the Feng family came back to her heart.
However, she didn't know that at this moment, a strange gaze was cast towards her...
