"Third brother, it's your turn." Feng Yuheng handed the wine pot back to Xuan Tianye, "Of course, if Third Brother doesn't dare to drink, just pour it out. Ah Heng just wants to let Third Brother taste the good stuff, but I can't force him."
The more she said this, the more Xuan Sanye couldn't help but drink it. A little girl drank it, if he poured it out, what would happen?
I just took a bite, picked up the wine jug and took a sip, but I felt my heart pounding as I swallowed.
Seeing him drink the wine, Feng Yuheng laughed again, "Don't worry, Third Brother, the snake venom works through the blood. Drinking it like wine is not poisoning at all."
Xuan Tianye knew that she was a doctor, so he could not argue with her on such a matter. He had already drunk the wine, so he stopped dwelling on the topic. However, he felt even more wary of Feng Yuheng in his heart.
The two turned around to admire the plum blossoms, their eyes cast towards the tree with the snake head nailed on it. Xuan Tianye suddenly said, "It's really rare to gather all the white crystals to make a complete set of head ornaments. Big brother is really thoughtful."
Feng Yuheng sighed softly, "Big sister is lucky, she is naturally worthy of big brother's love. Unlike me, I have been called a disaster star since I was a child. If I hadn't been engaged to His Royal Highness Prince Yu many years ago, I would have stayed in the mansion and become an old maid."
"The county lady is really good at joking." Xuan Tianye had no expression on his face, his eyes still looking straight at the tree, only in this way could he remind himself what kind of woman he was talking to. If you really think she is a twelve-year-old girl, you are totally wrong.
"Alas." Feng Yuheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I am a disaster star. I can't cure His Royal Highness Prince Yu's leg, and I lost the phoenix hairpin. Father treats me... not as well as before."
Hearing her mention the phoenix hairpin again, Xuan Tianye's heart trembled.
The Immortal Master tried three times but still failed to get it. Where on earth is that thing? Could it be... He squinted his eyes and looked at Feng Yuheng. Could it be that it is still in the hands of this girl?
"It's freezing cold, isn't the county lady going to go back?" He felt annoyed and didn't want to talk to Feng Yuheng anymore. He felt that this little girl was digging a deep hole for him. Even if he saw the first one, there was no guarantee that there would be more holes behind it.
"I'll stay for a while. It's very noisy inside." Feng Yuheng smiled at him, "Third brother, go back first."
"Okay, then we'll have a chance to drink together another day." Xuan Tianye threw down these words and strode away. He always felt suffocated and uncomfortable talking to Feng Yuheng. This girl was so weird that he didn't even want to look at her again.
But after walking a few steps, he heard Feng Yuheng muttering to himself from behind: "Alas, it's so cold in the capital, who knows how many people will freeze to death in the Northern Territory."
His eyebrows twitched twice and his pace quickened.
Seeing the person walking away, Feng Yuheng walked back to the stone bench and sat down again, then said to the air: "Come out, don't hide anymore."
Soon, footsteps were heard coming from behind a rockery.
"When did my sister-in-law find out that I was here?" The person who came was actually King Jing Xuan Tianqi.
Feng Yuheng turned to look at him and said, "I just shouted it casually and made a random guess."
Xuan Tianqi shrugged and smiled. It was always so interesting to talk to this county lady. He had felt this since Xuan Tianming secretly brought him to Tongshengxuan a few days ago.
"My sister-in-law and my ninth brother really played a good chess game, pushing this mess onto me. Do you know how many times that Saint Immortal has been to Prince Jing's mansion? If it weren't for the clever secret guards around me, I'm afraid that this head would have been stolen countless times."
"Brother is a businessman. If he can't even protect himself, how can he dare to take on this business?" Feng Yuheng looked at Xuan Tianqi with a smile, "Last time, His Highness the Ninth Prince said that as long as Brother can accompany us to finish this play, you will naturally get the benefits."
"Oh?" Xuan Tianqi sat down opposite her and asked seriously, "Then tell me, what can I get from this business?" The reason why he dared to wade into Xuan Tianming's muddy water was, firstly, he had a grudge with Xuan Tianye many years ago, and secondly, Xuan Tianming said that if he was willing to help, Feng Yuheng would give him a surprise. He had been cooperating with this play just for the surprise, and even acted very excitedly with the emperor. He even asked him to show his goodwill to Chenyu and give her a set of crystal headwear. Now, the surprise has finally come to be revealed.
Feng Yuheng also looked back at him seriously, and after a while, he finally said, "As long as Big Brother can cooperate with us and the Emperor to successfully contain the Third Prince's private soldiers, at the very least, he will have to transfer his troops back from the north to the Central Plains. As long as we can control the hinterland of Dashun, everything will be fine."
She did not directly state what the benefits were, but because of today's sudden changes, she reiterated the core purpose of herself, Xuan Tianming, and Emperor Tianwu.
Xuan Tianqi naturally knew that the Third Prince had been raising private troops for many years with the intention of seizing the throne, but he didn't understand why he tried so hard to prevent them from concentrating in the north.
He asked his doubts, and Feng Yuheng told him honestly: "Because we suspect that he has colluded with the Qianzhou Kingdom in the northern border. If we let them join hands, I'm afraid it won't be as easy to break it in the future."
Is it easy now?
Xuan Tianqi smiled bitterly, "It's not easy now! You saw it too. Feng Chenyu gave a set of crystals to your Feng family's fourth young lady. I'm afraid that the fifth child is already chatting with the fourth young lady. And your eldest sister Feng Chenyu, although she has a stunning appearance, I think her brain is not very good. Is such a person really destined to be a phoenix?"
"Whether it is not what we said, it has been passed down for so many years, even if people do not believe it, they still have to consider it. As for the crystal..." Feng Yuheng was annoyed again, "Things always have unexpected consequences, we will investigate it in detail, don't worry about it. Anyway, the candidate for the throne that the emperor has chosen is you, let's see if the Third Prince can keep his composure, and also hope that he can relax his vigilance against the Ninth Prince, so that we can buy some time to deal with those private soldiers who have already entered the Northern Territory. As for the benefits that you get from this business..."
She finally got to the point. Xuan Tianqi opened his eyes wide and moved closer.
Feng Yuheng laughed. The eldest prince Xuan Tianqi loved business. He didn't care about government affairs at all. He was devoted to business. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was the richest man in the world. The most important thing was that his business spread all over Dashun and the four surrounding countries. No matter where he went, he had people there.
Such an existence is actually the most deadly. Although he does not hold soldiers, he holds money. Money is sometimes more terrifying than soldiers.
"We don't have any money." Feng Yuheng told the truth, "Big brother's favorite things, His Highness the Ninth Prince and I don't have them."
"Then what do you have?" Hearing her say this, Xuan Tianqi was not disappointed, he even felt a little happy and expectant.
Feng Yuheng also moved forward and lowered his voice: "I heard that the eldest brother is nearly forty years old and has no children?"
Xuan Tianqi was startled, his old face flushed instantly, and he wanted to ask "How do you know?" But then he thought again, with Xuan Tianming here, how could this girl not know anything?
"I'm a doctor, big brother, you don't need to worry too much in front of me." She didn't keep him in suspense and took the initiative to say, "My bargaining chip is my medical skills. Big brother, please help us accomplish this great thing, and I will cure your infertility."
hiss!
Xuan Tianqi took a breath of cold air.
This temptation is too great for him!
He has been doing business for half his life, and he regards expanding his business territory and accumulating wealth as the greatest pleasure in life. But as Feng Yuheng said, he is nearly forty years old, and has no sons or daughters. Neither the wife nor the concubines in the mansion can give birth to children. If he has no descendants in this life, then what will he do with this huge fortune? Is it possible to donate it to the national treasury after his death?
Xuan Tianqi held his breath for a long time before he exhaled. He asked Feng Yuheng in a trembling voice, "Can you really cure it?"
She nodded, "It can be cured."...
Xuan Tianqi didn't even think about it, and clapped his hands: "Deal!" Then he thought of the key thing, "That crystal... Sister-in-law, forgive me for being blunt, but has our plan been discovered?"
Feng Yuheng shook his head and said honestly: "I don't know either, but it is absolutely impossible for the other party to have no doubts at all. The Third Prince is suspicious by nature, and we can't expect to fool him by performing these few days. Let's wait and see."
"Okay, then I'll wait for news from my sister-in-law." He stood up and said, not wanting to stay any longer. He just said, "I'll go back first." Then he turned around and left.
Huang Quan then trotted over to Feng Yuheng and said with some worry, "It's fine if you meet the eldest prince, but I'm worried that the third prince's daughter will meet him alone."
Feng Yuheng laughed, "Could it be possible that he could eat me?"
"You think you can't?" Huang Quan's eyes popped up. "Two years ago, there was a rumor in the Prince Xiang's Mansion that the Third Prince would bite people when he was angry. His former housekeeper was bitten to death by him."
"I'm not an unarmed butler." Feng Yuheng rolled his eyes and turned the snake skinning dagger in his hand, "Look, I'm carrying a weapon."
Huang Quan twitched his lips, "Miss, I won't comment on your sleeves." He glanced at the snake skin on the stone table that Xuan Tianye didn't take away, and couldn't help but shudder again: "What should I do with this thing?"
Feng Yuheng saw that the emerald green snake skin was really beautiful, so he picked it up, put it into his sleeve and threw it into the space, "I'll find someone to make a small object with the snake skin later. Well, the New Year is less than two months away, and then I will send it to the Prince Xiang's Mansion as a gift. I think His Royal Highness Prince Xiang will definitely like it."
Huang Quan then covered her mouth and laughed, "I watched from afar the expression on His Royal Highness Prince Xiang's face when he saw the young lady peeling the snake skin. I think he must have had a great year seeing this gift!" As she spoke, she looked at Feng Yuheng with great admiration, "The skill that the young lady showed was so stunning. Not to mention Prince Xiang, I'm afraid our Ninth Prince would have to admit defeat after seeing it."
Feng Yuheng grinned, "Don't tell Xuan Tianming, he said last time that I don't look like a woman."
Huang Quan burst out laughing, "Miss, you are still young. Young girls love to play. It's just that the toys she plays with are a little special. There's nothing to be surprised about."
Feng Yuheng Huangquan was very satisfied with this mentality. She stood up and prepared to go back to the banquet. However, she had just walked out of the pavilion and had not taken a few steps when she saw a round figure rolling towards her from the direction of the banquet hall.
Huang Quan said, "Is the little grandson of the emperor here to look for you, young lady?"
As he spoke, Xuan Feiyu had already run up to her, holding Feng Yuheng's hand. Regardless of how exhausted he was, he just kept pulling her back, shouting, "Fairy sister, hurry up! Go back quickly! Something happened to your sister!"
