"Hurry! Follow your young lady!" When Han saw Fendai get off the car, she hurriedly urged Pei'er to follow, and she also got off the car with Aju's help.
She didn't care about what the people on the street were saying. Seeing Fendai also entered the shop, Han became anxious. She thought that this was not good. Fendai's temper might cause a conflict with others.
As she expected, Feng Fendai rushed into the shop, saw the concubine, and without saying a word, raised her hand to slap her in the face.
But the hand did not fall as it wished. The maid beside the concubine took the brunt of the attack and was the first to stand in front. Then the nanny stretched out her hand and grabbed Fendai's wrist tightly.
The concubine glared at Fendai and smiled maliciously, "Let her beat me. Since I entered the palace, I have been doted on by the prince every night. I might be pregnant. If she dares to hit me, I will kneel at the palace gate and report to the emperor. I will say that the concubine of the Feng family beat the emperor's grandson and see how the emperor decides the case!"
Han was frightened and quickly stepped forward to pull Fendai back, whispering, "No. If you hit her in private, you can do it, but you can't hurt her in public."
"What's wrong with that?" Fendai was furious. "She's just a concubine. Even if she gives birth to a child, it won't be presentable."
The concubine was not to be outdone, and she said, "Whether it is acceptable or not is up to the prince and the emperor. I have lived to be seventeen, and this is the first time I have heard that the daughter of a minister has the power to manage the affairs of the prince's family. Miss, are you meddling too much?"
Fendai gritted her teeth and glared at her, "I am managing you as the concubine of Prince Li!"
"Oh!" The concubine laughed again, "Let's not talk about how much weight the concubines in our mansion have. Even if they have great weight, what does it have to do with you? Aren't you not married yet? Don't think that exchanging the Geng Tie is a big deal. You don't even ask how many Geng Tie the prince has given out throughout the year. You still treat it as a treasure!"
The woman rolled her eyes, and Fen Dai felt as if all the blood in her body was rushing to her head. She was about to explode with anger, and she struggled to break free from Han and slapped the concubine in the face.
The other party didn't dodge this time. Fendai was very strong when she got mad. In addition, the maids were still a little afraid. After all, she was the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Even if His Royal Highness Prince Li had the heart to offend his beloved concubine, the lives of the servants were not guaranteed. So they just tried to block her, but Fendai succeeded in the end and slapped the concubine in the face.
The concubine didn't expect that she would be beaten. She glared and raised her hand to hit back. But at this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the door, saying, "Whose concubine is so bold as to beat the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the street?"
Everyone turned their heads and saw a girl in a lavender winter robe walking in accompanied by a maid. She looked to be in her early teens, but had a pair of unusually bright eyes.
Feng Fendai didn't even need to turn around to recognize the voice. Who else could it be but her second sister Feng Yuheng? However, what Feng Yuheng said just now was very much to her liking. That's right, a concubine, why should he hit her?
"Did you hear that? Who am I? You really take yourself too seriously!" With Feng Yuheng here to support her, Fen Dai became more confident, "Do you dare to hit me?"
The woman was smart. She didn't argue with Fendai anymore. Instead, she put down her hand and stared at Feng Yuheng and asked, "Who are you?"
She didn't know Feng Yuheng, but that didn't mean the people on the street didn't know him either. During the snowstorm, Feng Yuheng personally served warm tea at the entrance of Baicaotang for several days in a row. Most people in the capital had received her kindness. Now that they saw Feng Yuheng coming, they all knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "May the county lady be safe!"
When he knelt, even the maids and servants of Prince Li's mansion knelt down together. The servant girl even tugged at the skirt of the concubine and whispered, "This is the Princess of Ji'an County, personally appointed by the Emperor, the legitimate daughter of the Left Prime Minister's mansion, and the future wife of Prince Yu."
Each of the three titles is very powerful.
The concubine was dumbfounded. The first and second titles did not frighten her much, but the sentence in the middle, "the legitimate daughter of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion", touched her heart.
The daughter of the left prime minister's mansion, isn't that the elder sister of the girl in front of me? This is great, I had a fight with my younger sister and it was not easy to get the upper hand, but the elder sister came.
The concubine was smart, she also knelt on the ground and said, "I pay my respects to the county lady."
"Hmph." Feng Yuheng sneered, "How can I bear the responsibility of bringing the little grandson to pay respects to this county lady?" As she spoke, she walked forward and pretended to help the concubine, but she put her own hands on her wrists. After probing her, she knew what was going on - "Fourth sister." She turned her head and called Fendai, "Don't worry, your second sister is a doctor, and this woman has no child in her belly."
Fendai perked up when she heard this, and said excitedly, "Second sister, you asked me to do this."
"Well, she deserves to be beaten."
Seeing Feng Yuheng nod, Fen Dai didn't wait any longer, raised her foot and slapped the concubine five or six times in a row.
Huang Quan had already stepped forward to restrain the woman while Feng Yuheng was talking. Feng Fendai beat her without any resistance, and only stopped when her palms were numb. She did not forget to curse at the woman, "Bitch!"
None of the onlookers said anything. Although Feng Fendai looked very arrogant, if you really think about it, it was really the fault of the concubine in Prince Li's mansion.
In order to save a dog, she startled someone's carriage and almost hurt someone, and she even yelled. She is just a concubine, how dare she run to the street to show off? What's more, she is a concubine of Prince Li's mansion, so she is even less valuable.
Princess Ji'an was right in her teaching!
Whatever Princess Ji'an does is right!
The concubine was beaten by Feng Fendai until her face was swollen. Tears were falling down her cheeks. She cried and said, "Why did you beat me? I am the woman of King Li. What qualifications do you have to beat me?"
Feng Yuheng laughed contemptuously, "I am the county lady, and you, a concubine, what qualifications do you have to question me? Remember, a concubine is a concubine. Unless you are the emperor's concubine, you have no right to make things difficult for the young lady of the prime minister's mansion. Even if there are many concubines in your mansion, you'd better think about it. In this day and age, new favorites are always more popular. My fourth sister entered the mansion after you, and her position is higher than yours. You may have to rely on her for your future life. No smart person would do what you do. What's more, she has a prime minister behind her. What about you?"
The concubine was stunned. Yes, she only thought that the concubine in Prince Li's mansion was worthless, but she had a big family as a backer. What about her? Her family was just a snack shop. What qualifications did she have to compete with them?
The woman regretted it deeply.
"Let's go." Feng Yuheng waved his hand, "Go back to your Prince Li's Mansion. If you can't get over it, you can go to Prince Li and complain to see if he is on your side or on his future concubine's side."
After being taught a lesson by Feng Yuheng, the concubine no longer had the momentum she had before and left in disgrace.
The onlookers dispersed, and this farce became a topic of conversation among people after dinner.
Having won the battle, Feng Fendai was very happy, and she also began to like Feng Yuheng.
But Han didn't quite understand what Feng Yuheng did. She knew in her heart that Feng Yuheng didn't like Fen Dai, especially after all the things Fen Dai had done. It was good enough that she didn't trip Fen Dai up or harm her. Why would she help her?
"Thank you, Second Miss, for helping me out." Han thanked her. No matter what, she still had to be polite.
"Thank you, second sister." Fendai also spoke, but there was no respect in her words.
Feng Yuheng...
He didn't care about her attitude at all, just turned around and walked out, and Fendai and Han followed behind him. As they walked, Fendai said, "If that woman hadn't used the little grandson in her belly to make a fuss, I wouldn't be afraid of her."
"Yes." Feng Yuheng nodded, "Fourth sister is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there is really no need to be afraid of her. It's just..." She hesitated to speak.
Han saw the clue and quickly asked, "Does the Second Miss have anything to say?"
"It can't be called an instruction." She said, "I just want to remind Fourth Sister and Aunt Han that when you are proud, you should also think about it. Is the favor from Big Sister so easy to receive?"
She said this, took Huang Quan to the carriage waiting outside, and drove away.
Feng Fendai looked at the gorgeous imperial carriage and couldn't help but feel jealous of Feng Yuheng again: "Just wait and see! Sooner or later, I will also ride in a carriage like that. I wonder who dares to bump into it!"
Han frowned and quickly pulled Fendai into her own carriage. The driver who had been knocked to the ground earlier had been waiting outside. When he saw his masters getting in the carriage, he quickly asked, "Where are we going?"
Han said, "Go back home."
The driver nodded, turned the horse around and drove back towards Feng Mansion.
"Miss, don't be angry. The second lady is right. No matter how arrogant she is, she is just a concubine. She can't beat you no matter what." Pei'er grabbed Fendai's arm and persuaded her.
Han was also worried and kept comforting her, saying, "When we get back home, we'll go and tell the old lady that this marriage must be cancelled."
Fendai suddenly came to her senses, stared at Han and asked, "Retreat? Why do you want to retreat?"
Han was stunned. "Are you so angry that you are confused? Didn't you hear what others said about the Fifth Prince? Are you going to jump into such a fire pit?"
"What if I don't jump?" Feng Fendai's eyes almost popped out. "Prince Li's Mansion is a pit of fire, how good is Feng Mansion? Even if I don't marry Prince Li, one day my father will use me as a bargaining chip and give me to someone else. Feng Yuheng once said that I can't decide my marriage, and you can't decide it either. The only ones who can decide are my father, her, and the old lady. Do you think it would be better for me to be a bargaining chip and follow someone else than follow His Royal Highness Prince Li?"
Han was stunned. She felt that what Fendai said was right. Women's marriages have always been decided by their fathers and stepmothers. The Feng family has no stepmother, so the stepdaughters also have the right to speak. In short, no matter who is in charge, they can't have a say. Rather than being used as a bargaining chip to be given to someone who is useful in the future, it is better to follow the Fifth Prince who seems to be affectionate and righteous at the moment. But...
"You're still four years away from your coming of age. Who knows what will happen in these four years?" Han sighed softly. You heard it just now. The thing that Prince Li's mansion has the most is women. Prince Li is the groom every night. Who can guarantee that she will still remember you four years later?
Fendai smiled, "Don't worry, Auntie. I will make sure he will remember me firmly in his heart."
