Feng Jinyuan took the Cheng sisters to the Prince Xiang's mansion. Of course, he did this not out of respect for his wife and concubine, but because he had to use these two people to support himself.
The Feng family still didn't know what had happened in the Prince Xiang's Mansion, but when Feng Jinyuan heard the news that the Queen had sent a body-examination nanny to the Prince Xiang's Mansion with the Wanbi Tianpan, he had already guessed it almost exactly.
But he felt strange. Chenyu had clearly stated that she was fine. He didn't think Chenyu was lying at the time. Later, he learned that Chenyu had spent a lot of money to ask Feng Yuheng for help. No matter how much he disliked Feng Yuheng, he still believed in the girl's medical skills. What's more, Feng Yuheng was very concerned about money. Feng Chenyu had a large amount of silver notes from the Shen family at the time, so it was not impossible for her to ask Feng Yuheng for help. But now it seems that he still thought one step less. Since the three Yao family members returned to Beijing, Feng Chenyu has repeatedly joined forces with the Shen family to harm the other party. Although Feng Yuheng resolved them one by one and even gave them a fatal opportunity, his repeated protection still allowed Feng Chen to escape the punishment she should have received several times. His second daughter was a vengeful person. How could she let Chenyu marry into the Prince of Xiang's mansion smoothly?
Thinking of this, he became more anxious and urged the driver several times to speed up. Finally, after the carriage neighed, the driver stopped in front of the gate of Prince Xiang's mansion.
Feng Jinyuan hurriedly got out of the car and strode in. The Cheng sisters followed behind him, and the two looked at each other and understood each other's intentions.
Feng Yuheng had already passed on the news that not only she and Princess Xiang participated in Chenyu's wedding, but also their aunt. The two sisters had already made up their minds that when they came to the Xiangwang Mansion, they would not act according to Feng Jinyuan's eyes, but to Feng Yuheng, the Princess of Ji'an County.
As the Feng family arrived, the original discussions in the courtyard gradually died down. An official who usually stood with Feng Jinyuan hurried forward and briefly told Feng Jinyuan what had happened before. Feng Jinyuan's face turned pale. He could almost conclude that those four words must have been tattooed by Feng Yuheng. For a moment, he was furious and wanted to rush into the wedding hall to question Feng Yuheng what he was doing!
But when he walked into the wedding hall and saw the Ninth Prince Xuan Tianming sitting next to Feng Yuheng, he swallowed back the questions that were on his lips helplessly.
He brought his two wives to pay respects to the princes. When he bowed his head, he looked behind him and saw Feng Chenyu lying on the threshold of the wedding hall. Her pale face and blood at the corners of her mouth clearly told him that his daughter had been beaten.
But what could Feng Jinyuan say? What did he dare to say? He knew the matter of Feng Chenyu very well. Now it depends on how much of the past history is dug out. Once that matter is revealed, let alone Feng Chenyu, I am afraid that he will not be able to be the prime minister anymore.
He stood up tremblingly, looked at the Third Prince, and asked guiltily: "Your Highness, what happened?"
Xuan Tianye kept silent with a gloomy face, but Duanmu Qing spoke up: "Master Feng, that is the good daughter you taught! Ruining her reputation is your family's business, but your family is shameless, don't think that everyone is as shameless as you!"
His words were very harsh, and he kept calling Feng Jinyuan shameless, which made Feng Jinyuan's face hurt like fire. He was a dignified first-rank official, and he was scolded like this by a deputy governor of the border. Even if he ignored him, he couldn't bear it.
So he simply retracted the panic on his face when he turned to Xuan Tianye, stared coldly at Duanmu Qing, and asked sternly: "Deputy Commander, in what capacity are you talking to me?"
Duanmu Qing had been living in the northern border area for many years, so he had no concept of official ranks in his mind. In addition, he relied on the fact that he was a relative of the Third Prince's mother and was in charge of most of the soldiers in the northern border. Naturally, he was more arrogant than ordinary people. Once he felt superior, he would never take a first-rank prime minister seriously, not to mention that the Feng family was the one who was in the wrong now.
Duanmu Qing straightened his back again and replied to Feng Jinyuan: "On behalf of the Duanmu family, I would like to ask Master Feng, what exactly do you mean by sending a withered flower to Princess Xiang as a treasure?"
In fact, Duanmu Qing and Xuan Tianye hated Princess Zhao Bairu of Xiang Wang more than Feng Jinyuan. Originally, marrying Feng Chenyu into the Xiang Wang Mansion was just a chess piece. If it was kept quiet, even if Xuan Tianye knew about it, at most he would lock this woman up in the mansion and never come to visit again, but the plan still had to go ahead. But now, everyone knew about it, which forced him to ask Feng Jinyuan for an explanation and had to grit his teeth to completely destroy Feng Chenyu, the chess piece.
Seeing Feng Jinyuan standing there speechless, Xuan Tianye suddenly snorted coldly, then looked at the nanny who was examining her, and said, "Since Prime Minister Feng is pretending to be stupid, then you can take him to the back hall for another examination! This time, Prime Minister Feng, please open your eyes and see clearly what kind of person your daughter is!"
As soon as these words came out, Feng Jinyuan's old face flushed red. Asking him to go in and examine his own daughter? What kind of words are these? He stamped his feet and turned around in confusion.
At this time, the Cheng sisters received a signal from Feng Yuheng, so Cheng Junman took the initiative to speak and said to Feng Jinyuan: "Master, let me and my sister go with the nanny to check it again!"
Feng Jinyuan then remembered that he had brought two people with him, so he quickly nodded, "Okay, you guys go quickly." Then he said to Xuan Tianye, "They are not only Chenyu's mothers, but also the Queen's nieces. Let them go and test it!"
Xuan Tianye nodded, and the nanny led the people to the back hall again. He knew that Feng Jinyuan had brought the two sisters here on purpose, but he cursed in his heart that they were stupid. Those two were clearly in the same group with Feng Yuheng, so how could they help him speak at this time?
Soon, the Cheng sisters came back from the back hall, followed by the nanny. Then, Feng Chenyu was dragged to the entrance of the wedding hall by the powerful servants. As Chenyu cried, the Cheng sisters knelt in front of Xuan Tianye, and Cheng Junman said, "As the mistress of the Feng family, I was negligent for not asking the nanny to examine my daughter before she got married."
When Feng Jinyuan heard this, his heart was completely cold. He was still holding on to a glimmer of hope, but now all hope was gone. He knew that this time, Feng Yuheng had made a fatal move.
He was so angry that he couldn't vent it. He was almost going crazy because of the anger he was holding back. He couldn't get angry at the Third Prince, and there was no reason to get angry at Duanmu Qing. He didn't dare get angry at the culprit Feng Yuheng. When he turned around, he saw Feng Chenyu still lying on the doorstep. He finally found a place to vent his anger. He took a few steps forward, raised his foot and kicked her on the shoulder.
Although this kick was not as powerful as Duanmu Qing's, it was still very deadly when it hit the shoulder joint. Chenyu was kicked and fell on her back. She heard a "crack" sound from her left shoulder, and then her left arm seemed to be disconnected and dragged on the ground.
She almost fainted from the pain, and when she looked at Feng Jinyuan's desperate face, the fear in her heart became even greater.
At this time, the Cheng sisters were still kneeling on the ground. Xuan Tianye looked at the two of them, and he wanted to vent his anger, but he couldn't. Although they were Feng Jinyuan's wives, they were still the nieces of the queen, and he had to give them face. He thought about it, and suddenly turned his gaze to Feng Yuheng and asked, "What do you think about this matter, County Lord?"
When he asked this question, Feng Yuheng was curled up in a big chair, pulling the tassel of the jade pendant on Xuan Tianhua's waist and playing with it. Xuan Tianming also said beside him: "Seventh brother's tassel is new, I have never seen him wearing it before."
Xuan Tianhua did not say anything, but smiled and sat closer to Feng Yuheng to avoid her from pulling too hard. Yu Qianyin's eyes would glance at Feng Yuheng from time to time, but she imitated Feng Yuheng and leaned lazily on the back of the chair. However, she was a little fatter than Feng Yuheng, so she didn't look that good when she was curled up there.
When Xuan Tianye asked the question, Feng Yuheng did not stop playing, nor did he raise his head, but just called out: "Mammy!"
The only person in this room who Feng Yuheng could call "Mammy" was the one from the palace, so the other person hurried forward, bowed in front of her and said, "I am here, what can the county lady do for you?"
Feng Yuheng said again: "Madam, please tell the Third Prince about the punishment for female adultery in our Dashun Law. It seems that the Third Prince is not very clear about it."
The maid nodded, turned around, and said loudly: "According to Dashun law, women who have adultery, have multiple husbands, or commit adultery will be punished by beheading once the charges are proven."
As soon as the word "behead" was uttered, Feng Chenyu fainted completely.
Feng Jinyuan stumbled and nearly fell, but fortunately a servant helped him up, while Cheng Junman, who was kneeling on the ground, said solemnly: "It is a misfortune for our family. Now the people have been carried into the Prince Xiang's Mansion. Everything is up to your Highness to deal with." Then the two of them stood up together and walked in front of Feng Jinyuan. Cheng Junmei said: "Master, things have come to this point. The eldest lady can't be saved."
Cheng Junman also said: "My Feng family is ashamed to have such a daughter."
They all said this, what else could Feng Jinyuan say? Chenyu was now a useless person, and a useless person who brought shame to the Feng family. He also understood that if he kept this daughter, the Feng family would really be finished.
But he was so unwilling, his bloodshot eyes fiercely glared at Feng Yuheng, all the anger in his heart erupted with this look, he couldn't hold it back for a moment, and suddenly yelled: "How far are you going to harm the Feng family?"
Feng Yuheng finally stopped playing with the jade spike, but she didn't raise her head yet. Her little face was as cold as a thousand-year-old ice, and anyone who looked at her would tremble all over.
Xuan Tianming's hand moved slightly, and he was about to swing the whip, but the Seventh Prince Xuan Tianhua said, "Prince Feng, in your eyes, what kind of daughter is considered good? You don't love a legitimate daughter who has superb medical skills and can make steel for the country, but you have great ambitions for a crippled concubine's daughter. What on earth do you want to do?"
Feng Jinyuan was startled. He didn't expect that the person who spoke at this time was the Seventh Prince, a fairy-like man, and his words were heart-wrenching.
Yes, at this moment, in everyone's eyes, Feng Yuheng is the hope of the Feng family, why is he still holding on to Chenyu? But how many people can understand that Feng Yuheng is not on the same page with him at all!
"Heh." Suddenly, the person who was sitting in the chair and playing with the tassel spoke up, but with a nonchalant sneer. "Maybe it's because the elder sister is prettier than me, or maybe it's because the elder sister is born with a phoenix. In short, my father's hope is on me, but my father's hope has never been on me."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Feng Jinyuan was terrified. Doesn't this mean that he and the emperor are not on the same page? Is this still his daughter?
At this time, Xuan Tianming, who had been sitting silently, couldn't stand Feng Jinyuan's shameless words any more, so he waved his hand and said, "You should shut up! If you want to quarrel, I'll take you back to Prince Yu's Mansion and we'll have a good talk. Now..." He cast his eyes towards Feng Chenyu who had fainted, raised his lips and sneered, "Come here, take that thing to the government office for me, and have Xu Jingyuan lock it up. Three days later, execute the death penalty by beheading!"
