The old lady was somewhat annoyed when she saw Feng Jinyuan accidentally hurt Kang Yi and their little ambiguity, but now she is full of joy. [ads: This site has changed its new URL, shorthand method: ,..] If Kang Yi really becomes the daughter-in-law of the Feng family, it would be really classy!
Feng Yuheng sat opposite her, how could he not see the old lady's thoughts? No wonder Feng Jinyuan couldn't keep any family affection in his heart, and he only thought about benefits from beginning to end. It turned out that this was in her nature. How could a mother like the old lady give birth to a good son?
As she thought about it, she sighed softly. Ru Jia happened to see her and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Feng Yuheng said with a worried look on his face: "I feel that being a child of the Feng family is really not easy. Women from other families only need to worry about whether they can find a good husband in the future, but our daughter has to worry about whether she will be assassinated at any time and anywhere. Princess, do you think it is too difficult to be a daughter of the Feng family?"
Ru Jia was stunned, and then she felt that Feng Yuheng seemed to be right. As a princess of the Qianzhou royal family, she had never encountered such a thing. The families of the officials in Dashun were really complicated.
Seeing Ru Jia plotting in her heart, the old lady frowned and said again: "The Shen family must be eradicated this time! No more trouble can be left!" After that, she glanced at Feng Jinyuan and reminded him: "Including that Shen Qing, you must not tolerate it anymore!"
Feng Jinyuan nodded, "Don't worry, mother. No one will touch the children of our Feng family."
Ru Jia was relieved and said, "Uncle Feng is the best father and the old lady is the best grandmother. The Feng family is really good."
The old lady smiled and said, "Then quickly ask the servants to go back to the inn to pack up and move in today!"
Ru Jia was very happy and was about to nod, but suddenly she heard Jin Zhen, who had never spoken, say, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for the eldest princess and Princess Ru Jia to move in now?" Seeing the old lady and Feng Jinyuan staring at her, she immediately added, "I don't mean anything else. It's not that I don't welcome the eldest princess, but...something happened to the Shen family, and they are good at assassination. I'm afraid that the Shen family will take the opportunity to retaliate. If the eldest princess moves into the Feng Mansion at this time, what if she encounters danger?"
What she said seemed to make sense. The old lady's face darkened, and she was also considering whether this was possible. But no matter how she thought about it, she felt that revenge from the Shen family was inevitable. She knew how many schemes the Shen family had done behind the scenes over the years. She also knew clearly how many times they had attacked Feng Yuheng after he returned to Beijing. Thinking of this, Kang Yi would become a sitting duck if he moved in. The Shen family would be desperate. If Kang Yi and Ru Jia were injured, it would cause conflicts between the two countries, which would be a serious crime.
Kang Yi saw the change in the old lady's expression clearly, and immediately said: "If it is really inconvenient for your family, Kang Yi will not bother you, but if you are afraid that the Shen family will hurt us mother and daughter, then the old lady is worrying too much."
"Oh?" The old lady looked at her, somewhat bewildered.
Kang Yi said, "As a princess, I have been raising my younger brother since he was young. I have always been in the spotlight. Not to mention assassinations, even blatant fights have long been commonplace. The Shen family is just a bunch of gangsters, so how could Kang Yi take them seriously? This little thing is not dangerous."
Feng Jinyuan also nodded and said, "That's right. When the princess comes to my Dashun, there must be a lot of secret guards accompanying her. What's more, if I, Feng Jinyuan, am afraid of the Shen family in my own home, wouldn't it be a joke!" He looked at the old lady as he spoke, "Mother, the person I want to protect is someone that the Shen family cannot harm even if they make a desperate effort."
The old lady took a deep breath. She knew that Feng Jinyuan was expressing his opinion to Kang Yi. She had to give face to her son at this time. So she nodded, "Okay, I believe you can protect the two princesses!"
In this way, Kang Yi and Ru Jia's living in Feng Mansion has become a foregone conclusion. Jin Zhen failed to stir up trouble, so she could only lower her head sadly. She began to regret vaguely. In recent months, she has been estranged from Feng Yuheng. She always felt that currying favor with Feng Jinyuan and keeping her favor was the most important thing. She even felt that Feng Yuheng should not be allowed to suppress Feng Jinyuan too much. If the master fell, she would still be a concubine.
But now it seems that Feng Jinyuan has a cold temperament, and everything is based on interests. Everything must give way to interests. What does her favor count for? The new one replaces the old one. She has been taken in for more than half a year. I think it is time to make way for the new one.
When the heart-breaking family dinner on the second day of the Lunar New Year finally came, the servants who had gone back to the posthouse to move things had returned one after another. The old lady personally arranged for people to prepare the yard for Kang Yi. Feng Yuheng was in no mood to accompany her any longer, so she said something and took Huang Quan back to Tongshengxuan.
Along the way, Huang Quan couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Prime Minister Feng and the eldest princess are obviously in love, and the old lady seems to be very happy about it. Miss, if such a person becomes the mistress of the Feng family, she will be much more powerful than Shen."
Feng Yuheng laughed and said, "How can you say that she is so amazing? She is dignified and polite, beautiful and intelligent, and she is a good daughter-in-law no matter how you look at her. And look at her attitude towards Fendai and Chenyu, she is a good mother no matter how you look at her. How can you make such an evaluation?"
Huang Quan rolled her eyes, "Miss, please stop teasing me." "I've been following you for so long, how could I not know your tricks?" "You don't look happy when you're teasing those two princesses."
"But what can I do if I'm not happy? People say that if it rains, my mother can't be stopped from getting married. If my father wants to get married, how can I, as a daughter, say no? I'm afraid that the eldest princess of Qianzhou came to my Dashun just for Feng Jinyuan. It's better this way. Instead of letting the enemy hide in the dark, it's better to pull him to my side and keep a close eye on him. It's like closing the door and letting the dog out. Whether she can avoid it is her Taoism, and whether she can bite or not is my ability." Her eyes became cold, and she ordered Huang Quan: "Send someone to investigate Feng Jinyuan's several exchanges with Princess Kang Yi in the Northern Realm. I remember Xuan Tianming said that the person who contacted Feng Jinyuan in the Northern Realm was a woman. If I guessed correctly, it should be someone from Kang Yi's side."
Huang Quan nodded, "I'll remember that."
On the other hand, Feng Chenyu was also wary of Kang Yi who suddenly showed up. Even though Kang Yi showed kindness to her frequently and protected her well, she still felt uncomfortable.
Xing'er was beside her, her brows furrowed as she walked, her expression extremely painful. The master and servant had been beaten up in the palace yesterday, and were covered in wounds. Not to mention Xing'er, even Chenyu had managed to come to this family dinner today. It was just that so many things had happened today, and they had distracted her attention, so she could not take care of the pain of her wounds for a while.
"Miss." Seeing that Chenyu was still unhappy, Xing'er had no choice but to take the initiative to persuade her, "Miss, you must think more positively. The Shen family is already like this now. You must not say a word for them, otherwise it will be bad if you make the master and the old lady angry."
Chenyu glanced at her and felt that this girl was really clumsy and not useful at all compared to Yilin.
"When did I ever worry about the Shen family!" She scolded in a deep voice, "They can't even handle such a small matter, and they were caught like that. Those who hold me back should die." As she spoke, she gently touched the wound on her forehead and gasped in pain. "It's better for the Shen family to die. They are more likely to cause trouble than to help. This time they implicated me. What's the use of them?"
Xing Er was puzzled. "What is the young lady worried about?"
Chenyu sighed again, this girl is really too stupid! "I was thinking about Kang Yi, trying to please the old lady and using the beauty trick to win my father's heart, what is he trying to do?"
Xing'er blinked and said something that hit the nail on the head: "There is no mistress in the mansion. She probably wants to be the mistress." Seeing that Chenyu looked unhappy, Xing'er said: "In fact, I think the eldest princess treats the young lady very well. If she really marries into the mansion, the young lady must get close to her."
"Why should I get close to her?" Chen Yu was so angry that her teeth ached. "She's just a step-wife!"
Xing Er didn't think so. "The mansion will have a mistress sooner or later. If it's not this princess, it could be someone else. Instead of having a stupid one, it's better to have the princess of Qian Zhou. With a country as her backing, she won't be bullied by the second young lady."
When she mentioned Feng Yuheng, Chenyu's eyes lit up, and when she looked at Xing'er again, she no longer thought she was stupid.
Once Xing'er's mind was awakened, her thoughts flowed like a spring, and she couldn't hold them back. "A foreign princess being the mistress of the Feng family is very good for you. Miss, think about it, when the new mistress enters the mansion, she must give birth to a child. If it is the daughter of our Dashun noble family, the child born will naturally be the legitimate son or daughter of the Feng family, and her status will be so noble! But if it is a child born by a foreign princess, then the path that this child can choose is very narrow. The master can only treat them like a treasure, but he can't entrust them with important tasks. Children born by foreign women cannot enter the palace, and cannot be married to the prince. This is the rule of Dashun."
Yes! Chenyu's eyes brightened up again!
If it is said that Kang Yi came to Dashun and is now with Feng Jinyuan, she would never believe that she did not have some selfish motives. But if Kang Yi were to marry into the Feng Mansion, she would have no hope in her own children and would have to support the Feng family's existing children. If she could be the object of Kang Yi's support, it would be much more powerful than the Shen family's secret support at the beginning.
Thinking of this, Chenyu's mood immediately improved, and she also liked Xing'er more and more. "From now on, I will double your monthly allowance. Yes, triple it!"
Xing Er was so happy that she wanted to jump up, but unfortunately she was still injured and hissed in pain. But she felt that the pain was worth it, after all, she had gained the trust of the eldest lady, and she was also given more money. It seemed that in the new year, her luck would turn!
Feng Chenyu looked at Xing'er's happy expression and couldn't help but think of what Shen Wanliang had said to her before: A slave is not made by beating or scolding, but by reward. The more you beat her, the more she will be afraid of you. If you beat her too hard, she will immediately turn against you if she meets a master who doesn't beat her. We are not short of money. As long as you can afford to give rewards that others can't, then the slave will always be on the same side with you.
Zi Rui returned to the County Lord's Mansion after dinner. The Emperor invited him to have dinner together. The child looked very happy, but at the same time, he also brought a piece of news to Feng Yu Heng -
