Someone found a substitute for herself, and she became jealous after finding one. oM.
Xuan Tianming narrowed his eyes and told Bai Ze, "Your princess told me to stay away from her good sister;"
"Tsk tsk." Bai Ze pouted, "That's not far away. Since Miss Bai is the substitute of the princess, she must travel with the master all the way. Yes, ride in the same carriage, live in the same tent, and even eat and sleep together...sleep?" Bai Ze shuddered, and Feng Yuheng's face suddenly appeared in front of him. He shook his head subconsciously, and said in fear, "No, no, we can travel and eat together, but we can't sleep together. If the princess finds out, as a personal guard, my life will be in danger! No, no."
Xuan Tianming took another look at the carriage that had already run away and disappeared, then turned around and walked back, saying as he walked, "So what do you think we should do about this?"
Bai Ze was also in a dilemma, "I don't have much experience, why don't we go back and hold a meeting to study it!"
The two of them had a heated discussion on the matter on the way back to the camp. That morning, at the Feng family in the capital, Xiangrong was recuperating in An's yard. She was in constant pain in her ankle, which made her inexplicably irritable.
Yao Xian had come once before and told her that the bones were fine, but the tendons were injured. There was no other way to treat this kind of injury except taking medicine, but the hands and feet that were fixed with bandages were very unique, which made Xiangrong feel relieved.
She didn't let An accompany her, she just said that she wanted to rest, and even sent away her personal maid. She leaned on the bed alone, thinking over and over again in her mind about how she was injured.
She was pushed down the stairs by Bai Furong. It was not an accident, but a premeditated deliberate act. Xiangrong could be sure that because she was the victim, she had the most say in the situation at that time. Even if Wangchuan didn't see it, Bai Furong's little movements could not escape her eyes. This was also the reason why Xiangrong was irritable!
Bai Furong was a very good friend of her second sister. It was normal for them to meet on the street and go shopping and have tea together. Unexpectedly, Wang Chuan's appearance seemed to make Bai Furong suddenly have other ideas. She didn't know why her second sister wanted her to go to the camp, but Bai Furong went for her. She always felt that there was something wrong.
Just as he was thinking about it, a maid's voice rose outside. The maid raised her voice deliberately so that Xiangrong in the room could hear it. "The third young lady has gone to bed. She said she won't see anyone. The fourth young lady should come back another day!"
Then, Fendai's voice was heard, "We are the only two children left in this mansion. Why are you servants trying to sow discord between us two sisters?"
Xiangrong sighed helplessly, she knew Fendai's personality too well, that girl always did what she wanted, she would do whatever she wanted no matter what the consequences;. Now that she wanted to come in, how could a maid or a door stop her.
"Let her in." Xiang Rong Yi said in a loud voice, "Let the fourth young lady in."
As soon as she finished speaking, Fendai pushed the door open, took two steps in and then carefully closed it again, and then walked into the room as if unintentionally.
Xiangrong's eyebrows moved slightly. Over the past year, she had personally experienced several changes in the Feng family, and had seen the warmth and coldness of the people around her. She had been killed, framed, fought against the prince, and attended the morning court. Her state of mind was no longer as simple and pure as before, and she could understand some of the people's affairs with ulterior motives.
For example, Fen Dai at this moment, from being arrogant outside the door to being cautious after entering the door, although she tried her best to act naturally, Xiang Rong still saw through the clues. But Xiang Rong has never been a person who would take the initiative to cause trouble. Since Fen Dai has something to say, she will listen, and if she doesn't say it, she won't ask.
So, when Fendai came in, what she saw was Xiangrong still sitting on the bed, with a calm expression, and not a single ripple of emotion caused by her arrival.
"Third sister is really open-minded." Fendai spoke up, and walked to Xiangrong's bedside and sat down. She glanced at Xiangrong's injured foot outside and frowned, saying, "It will take at least a hundred days for this injury to get out of bed, right?"
Xiangrong nodded, "That's what Grandpa said."
Fen Dai's face was obviously somewhat repulsive, and she was a little uncomfortable with the title of grandpa. But she didn't come here for this, so she didn't think too much about it. She just asked, "I heard that he was injured when he was with the eldest daughter of the Bai family. It's strange to say that the daughter of the Bai family has always been closer to Feng Yu... and the second sister. I haven't seen her take the initiative to look for the third sister before. Why did you two get together this time?"
What she said sounded like casual chatting, but the relationship between Fendai and Xiangrong was actually just like how she described Xiangrong and Bai Furong. They didn't have much contact with each other normally, so why did they come over to chat now?
Xiangrong replied calmly, "I met her on the street. Miss Bai is lively and invited me to have tea with her."
"Oh." Fendai nodded, "What a coincidence to meet you." She forced a smile and said, "That's fine, Third Sister, just take good care of her. It's a pity that our house is in such a bad condition now. Even if you want to eat something good, you have to pay for it yourself. Miss Bai didn't even come to see you. After all, she is half responsible for your injury."
Xiangrong's heart moved. Fendai obviously knew something, but she was not sure, so she came to her to inquire about the situation. What was going on with Bai Furong?
Seeing that Fendai had half stood up, she suddenly said, "Ms. Bai can't come to see me. She went to the camp with Miss Wangchuan."
"What?" Fen Dai jumped up before she could even stand up. She looked at Xiang Rong in shock and asked again, "What did you say? Where did she go?"
Xiangrong was more certain of what he was thinking, and repeated, "We went to the camp where His Highness the Ninth Prince and Second Sister were."
Fen Dai's face looked very ugly, but she also knew that she had lost her composure. She was afraid that Xiang Rong would be suspicious, so she quickly said, "It's okay, I just want to ask, why is she, a rich lady, going to the camp? Isn't she going to cause trouble? Okay, you take a rest, I'm leaving." After saying that, she turned around and left in a hurry.
Xiangrong was getting a little impatient. There was something wrong with this matter. Wangchuan brought Bai Furong to the camp. Could something have happened? "Cha!" She called out, and when the maid at the door came in, she hurriedly said, "Quick, prepare the car. I need to go to Prince Chun's mansion."
"Prince Chun's Mansion?" The girl was stunned. "What are you doing there, Miss? The Seventh Prince is not in the capital!"
Xiangrong was startled for a moment, then he remembered that Xuan Tianhua had asked for permission to go to the East Territory to take over the army originally led by Bu Cong, and his heart began to tremble again.
Xuan Tianhua sent troops, why did she feel so uneasy? She was used to going there when she had something to do, but now even the Seventh Prince was not in the capital. How come it seemed that all the people around her left one by one in this huge capital? A feeling of desperation came over her, and she wanted to lie back on the bed, exhausted both physically and mentally.
Feng Fendai, who had just left the yard, was also panicked. Everything she had seen and heard in the past few days reminded her that a huge conspiracy was quietly brewing. However, she was too young, and she could not analyze who was involved in the conspiracy. She also did not know whether she should tell Feng Jinyuan about this matter.
She knew that Feng Jinyuan had been looking for Xiaojing, but later the Feng family lost power, and Feng Jinyuan's original secret guards were gone, replaced by Qianzhou people. Naturally, he could not use Qianzhou people to look for Xiaojing again, and this matter was shelved; at the moment, a feeling of powerlessness invaded Fendai, and she suddenly felt that she should have some people like secret guards around her, just like this matter, she wanted to get to the bottom of it, but there was no one to use.
She hurried back to her room, called her maid Dongying, and ordered, "Go to Prince Li's mansion and ask the Fifth Prince to give me a few secret guards to protect me. If he asks why, you can say that the Feng family is not safe."
Seeing Dongying leave, Fendai finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt somewhat relieved.
This morning was a big day for the camp outside Beijing. Xuan Tianming personally selected 5,000 elite soldiers to lead them northward, including 200 sharpshooters and 200 Tianji, as well as the accompanying military doctors and Song Kang, who had become the chief of the military doctors. The rest of the troops had to stay in the camp to protect the Xutian Cave for steelmaking, including He Gan and Xi Fang.
The Western Realm already had an army of 80,000 under his command heading north to join Qian Li. He would bring another 5,000, a total of 85,000 people. Although the number of people could not match the 200,000 troops claimed by Qian Zhou, Xuan Tianming believed that the soldiers he trained were so well trained that no one could match them. If Qian Zhou only hid in the city to defend, there would still be a glimmer of hope. Once the enemy rushed out, they would definitely beheaded!
When the army set out, he rode a fierce horse from the northwest and walked at the front. Alongside him was a woman, also wearing purple, but a shade lighter than Xuan Tianming's dark purple, which looked very suitable. The purple skirt only went past the knees, and the leggings inside were also the same color, with silver decorations, which made her look quite dashing and heroic.
Bai Ze also rode his horse to accompany Xuan Tianming to a position a little later on the other side. He looked at the two people beside him, and then looked back at the soldiers' eyes full of hope and envy. He always felt very uncomfortable in his heart. He wanted to scold them, "What are you envious of? That's not the princess at all." But he couldn't say this. This was a secret. No one except them could know it.
Xuan Tianming tilted his head and spoke, interrupting Bai Ze's fantasy. He asked, "Have the two children been settled?"
Bai Ze immediately replied, "Master, rest assured. As soon as we head north, someone from the camp will escort them back to the capital. I have already instructed them to take them directly to the palace to accompany Concubine Yun."
Xuan Tianming nodded. This was a joint decision between him and Feng Yuheng. The battlefield was a place with too much uncertainty. Zirui was too young, and he was afraid of hurting him. After a few years, when the child was older, he would take him out to train.
He stopped talking and looked ahead, thinking about where Feng Yuheng and the others should go at this time. The girl beside him quietly raised her hand to her collar and said silently in her heart, "Ah Heng, don't blame me. I have no other choice."
