"The guards around His Royal Highness Prince Xiang, are they blaming my Feng family for not treating me well enough, or are they looking down on my status as a second-rank county lady? They even disdained to accept the fruit plate handed over by this county lady."
The guard knelt on the ground with an unwilling look on his face, struggling to get up. But for some reason, his knees gradually went from painful at first to numb, and he couldn't stand up no matter how hard he tried.
Feng Yuheng looked down at him with a pair of eyes that made people feel scared. "What? You are just a guard. I don't even have the right to punish you to kneel?"
The more the guard looked at Feng Yuheng, the more flustered he felt. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xuan Tianye. Seeing Xuan Tianye nodded at him, he replied, "I dare not!"
"Don't dare?" Feng Yuheng's eyes flashed coldly, "I think there is nothing you dare not do!" She leaned down slightly and put her face close to the guard.
The pressure that was coming step by step made the guard sweat on his forehead. He wanted to dodge, but his legs couldn't move. As Feng Yuheng's face got bigger and bigger in front of him, he almost suffocated.
"County...County Lord."
"Hmph!" Feng Yuheng stood up with a flick of his sleeves. "Since you don't look down on this county lady, then kneel down! Kneel until dark, and then go back with your master!"
Xuan Tianye frowned and asked Feng Yuheng in confusion: "Why are you so angry with a servant?"
Feng Yuheng sneered, and the words that Gumo Zhouchou had said to her once again echoed in her ears - at that time, His Highness the Ninth Prince was trapped in the mountains, and I had met that man several times when I led people to rescue him from the periphery...
She gritted her teeth, her eyes were fierce, and when she looked at Xuan Tianye again, there was no mercy at all. She said, "It's meaningless to get angry with a servant. I just want to remind his master to remember what he did before. One day, I will make up for it one by one." She turned around and walked away, but she said loudly, "Don't worry, sooner or later, it will be your turn!"
After the words were spoken, the man left, but the two people in the pavilion were left shuddering.
Xuan Tianye clenched his fists so tightly that the knuckles turned white. The departing figure had become the hardest thorn in his eyes, and he wished he could pull it out right now.
Unfortunately, no.
"Did we leave any loopholes behind?" he asked the kneeling guard beside him.
The man thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I have always been very careful and have never shown my face in front of the Dashun soldiers. It is impossible for the Princess of Ji'an to know about this."
Xuan Tianye gritted his teeth and slapped the soldier in the face: "But she is clearly targeting you today!" He pointed at the two legs covered in blood, "In that battle, Xuan Tianming's legs were broken. She is obviously seeking revenge for Xuan Tianming!"
"master!"
"Forget it!" Xuan Tianxuan waved his hand, "Now is not the time to fall out with them, just kneel down, this leg... must be returned to them."
The wedding banquet lasted until dark. The guests left one by one. Feng Jinyuan personally escorted the important people to the door of the mansion. Lastly, Xuan Tianqi and a group of palace servants carried Ru Jia out of the door.
Feng Jinyuan's heart twitched when he looked at Ru Jia. This illegitimate daughter had just entered the mansion and suffered such a misfortune. How could he explain this to Kang Yi?
Seeing Xuan Tianqi's carriage taking Ru Jia away, Feng Jinyuan knocked on his head, which was already a little dizzy from the alcohol, and turned around and walked back to the mansion. He was still wearing his bright red wedding gown, but he was a little depressed, not knowing how to face Kang Yi.
"Father drank a lot of wine today. I have already written a recipe for the hangover soup and gave it to the servants to make." Feng Jinyuan raised her head and bumped into Feng Yuheng who was walking towards her.
He was stunned for a moment, and the alcohol was getting to him again. He grabbed Feng Yuheng and begged, "Ah Heng, can you help father and rescue Ru Jia?"
Feng Yuheng was puzzled. "Princess Rujia went to the palace to learn the rules. This is a good thing. Why did father use the word 'save'?"
"Oh!" Feng Jinyuan stamped his feet, "My dear daughter, just help your father this time. Can I consider it as your request?"
"Beg me?" Feng Yuheng laughed. "Last time, father begged his daughter, he gave her the title deed to the Feng Mansion. What are you going to use this time?" She sneered and took a few steps forward. "My daughter might as well tell father, don't even mention saving me. If she dares to say that again next time, I will whip her to death with one whip!"
Feng Jinyuan took two steps back suddenly, his head was dizzy, and he almost fell down because he couldn't stand firmly.
The servant behind him helped him up, and when he came to his senses, he saw Feng Yuheng had turned and left. Her back was lonely and heartless, which made him doubt whether she was still his, Feng Jinyuan's, daughter.
"Master," the servant reminded him, "It's getting late. The new wife has been waiting in Tianxiangyuan for a long time. Master, it's time to go back."
It would have been fine if he didn't mention this, but once he mentioned going back, Feng Jinyuan became even more depressed.
This guy is afraid of drinking. If he is sober at this moment, then as a prime minister, he still has some persuasion and communication skills. But he drank a lot because he is the protagonist today. Being able to walk straight is already the maximum limit. If he is asked to face Kang Yi who is waiting to ask him for his daughter at any time, Feng Jinyuan is simply overwhelmed.
Just as he was hesitating, he saw a little girl running over here in a hurry. When she saw Feng Jinyuan, she quickly said, "Master! Master, please go and see her. Aunt Han has a stomachache and has been in pain for half an hour!"
"What?" Feng Jinyuan was shocked, but at the same time, he was actually a little relieved. Han's stomach was in trouble, so he had a legitimate reason to go and take a look. Although he couldn't avoid it forever, he could at least avoid it for a while. So he hurriedly said, "Quick! Let's go to Yulan Courtyard."
When the girl came to report, Feng Yuheng had not yet left the courtyard. He faintly heard someone saying that Han had a stomachache. When he turned around, Feng Jinyuan had already followed the girl in the direction of Yulan Courtyard.
Huang Quan said, "On the wedding day, the bride is still waiting in the bridal chamber, but Prime Minister Feng went to the concubine's room. Princess Kangyi must be so angry that she will die."
Feng Yuheng thought about it, but said with some amusement: "Let's go and take a look."
The Yulan Courtyard was already in chaos, with Han's cries coming one after another, making people angry. As soon as Feng Jinyuan entered the courtyard, Fendai grabbed him and kept saying, "Father, you can't ignore Auntie. She is very hard-working because of the pregnancy. She has been busy all day today. Now her stomach hurts so much that she keeps calling you."
Indeed, Han’s screams were interspersed with a sentence from time to time: “Master! Why don’t you want me anymore? I’m still pregnant with your child!”
Feng Jinyuan was anxious after hearing this. He was pulled by Fendai all the way into Han's room. He kept saying as he walked, "Stop shouting. Be careful not to hurt the child." At the same time, he asked Fendai, "Did you call a doctor?"
Fendai shook her head. "Today is a wedding day. It's unlucky to invite a doctor to our house!"
The maid next to her, Li Luo, said, "Didn't Princess Rujia invite the imperial physician?"
Fendai scolded her: "How can you have the right to speak? She is a princess. How can Aunt Han compare with her?"
Feng Jinyuan was not happy when he heard this, "Han is pregnant with my own flesh and blood, why can't we compare? Go and get a doctor!"
At this time, several people had already walked to the bedside, and saw Han grab Feng Jinyuan's hand and said, "Master, we can't invite a doctor. There is a wedding in the mansion, and I can't offend the new lady!"
Her words actually aroused Feng Jinyuan's pity, and he immediately held her hand and said, "Your stomach is a big deal. Even if Kang Yi was here, she would call a doctor for you."
"Master!" Han's tears flowed out, "I thought that now that I had a new wife, I would never see you again, Master..." As she spoke, she started to sob again.
She cried, and Fendai also wiped her tears, "Father, Auntie has been crying all these days. I don't ask for anything else, but only for you to come and see me more often before the baby is born. Just... just think of it as thinking about my unborn brother."
Feng Jinyuan nodded, "Of course, I promise you, stop crying."
As he was trying to persuade her, another little girl came to report, "Master, the second young lady is here."
"What is she doing here?" Fendai's eyes narrowed and she rolled her eyes.
Feng Jinyuan said, "She came at the right time. Isn't this a ready-made doctor? Let her take a look at your aunt. After she sees her, we can feel relieved."
Han was very resistant to Feng Yuheng's diagnosis and kept shouting, "No, I don't want anyone to come to see me. I just want the master to accompany me, and I don't want anything else!"
At this time, Feng Yuheng had already walked into the room, and as she walked, she said, "Even if Auntie doesn't think about herself, she should at least think more about the blood of the Feng family in her belly." As she spoke, she came closer, looked at Feng Jinyuan, and said, "Father, can you give way?"
Feng Jinyuan let go of Han's hand and made room for Feng Yuheng.
Han was very nervous, watching Feng Yuheng shrinking into the bed. Feng Yuheng grabbed her wrist, and without much effort, Han could no longer move, and could only let him feel her pulse.
After a while, Feng Yuheng said, "I am restless, missing you so much that I am sick. My heart is too hot and my pregnancy is uneasy."
"What do you mean?" Feng Jinyuan asked her, "The fetus is uneasy?"
She put Han's wrist down and said to Feng Jinyuan, "Mrs. Han is worried and her worries are affecting the fetus. Only by making her happy can the fetus in her belly be kept safe."
Fen Dai was stunned when she heard this. Was Feng Yuheng speaking for Han? Why?
She didn't understand at first, but when she heard the next sentence, she understood, and then she heard Feng Yuheng say: "Father has seen Aunt Han's condition. A pregnant woman needs her husband's company the most, but father not only doesn't accompany her, but also marries a new mother at this time. How can Aunt Han bear such a blow?"
Feng Jinyuan was stunned for a moment, looked at Feng Yuheng and asked her: "What should we do? Is there any medicine to cure this disease?"
Feng Yuheng said: "The best way is not to take medicine, but for father to stay in this Yulan Courtyard to accompany Aunt Han. Maybe by tomorrow morning, the disease will be cured."
Fendai understood immediately. Feng Yuheng also couldn't stand Kang Yi and her daughter. He beat Ru Jia wildly at the wedding banquet. Now he must want to use Han's hand to seize Kang Yi's wedding night. But this is not bad. Give that woman a lesson. What can the princess do? After entering the Feng family, she can't be too proud.
Feng Jinyuan felt something was wrong when he first heard it. He wanted to go to Tianxiangyuan, but his legs couldn't move no matter what. Thinking about it again, instead of facing a newlywed wife who was waiting for him to have a daughter, Han gave him a legitimate reason to stay, so why didn't he just go down the stairs?
So he nodded and said, "Okay, for the safety of the Feng family's offspring, I will stay here tonight."
