Mrs. Lu would naturally stay by Qianxi's side, but not to calm her down, but to keep an eye on her to prevent her from running away.
Feng Yuheng washed and dressed. Although she was not wearing a shawl, she still had a veil on her head. She was satisfied with Mrs. Lu holding her hand tightly and walked out of the inn. Amid the groans of the guests, she left the door and got on the sedan chair sent by the governor's mansion. The old woman who came to teach the rules and Mrs. Lu stood on both sides of the sedan chair, following closely like a matchmaker.
Feng Yuheng sat in the sedan chair with his eyes closed, full of curiosity and anticipation for the Dutong Mansion he was about to visit.
When the sedan arrived, the entrance to the Dutong Mansion was already crowded with people, all of whom came for Duanmu Anguo's birthday banquet. It was quite lively. Quite a few of the Dashun officials had already thought it through, thinking that they couldn't leave anyway, and would die anyway, so it was better to stay here and maybe find a better way out.
The bridal sedan stopped at the door, and the maid and Madam Lu helped Feng Yuheng get off the sedan. She heard someone muttering, "I heard this one hasn't reached the age of marriage yet, and is even younger than the previous one."
"Master Duanmu's hobby is really getting worse and worse."
The old woman's subordinates increased their strength, almost dragging Feng Yuheng to walk quickly into the mansion. After many twists and turns, the noise in the front yard gradually became quieter, until they entered a small courtyard, which was completely isolated from the noise. The old woman said "tsk tsk" twice, and said to her: "The Lord General is very fond of you. It is said that this courtyard was once lived by the most favored Fifth Madam, but the Fifth Madam died young and died within two months. Since then, the Grand General has sealed this courtyard to commemorate the Fifth Madam and has never allowed other concubines to enter." As she spoke, she squeezed Feng Yuheng's hand again and reminded her: "Remember what you said last night. If you have a promising future after entering this General's Mansion, you must not forget me."
Feng Yuheng said with excitement and joy: "Mother-in-law, I will never forget your kindness."
"Oh!" Madam Lu was also anxious, "Qianxi, don't just remember your mother-in-law, but also me, your master. I am the benefactor who allowed you to enter the Dutong Mansion."
Feng Yuheng sneered in her heart, but she was also very grateful on the surface. She suddenly stopped, held Madam Lu's hand and said, "Madam, Qianxi is really nervous and a little anxious. I don't know the way around this mansion. Madam, can you accompany me?"
Mrs. Lu was stunned and asked, "Are you in a hurry?" Then she glanced at the old woman, obviously asking for her advice.
The woman thought about it and nodded, "Go ahead." She pointed in a direction and said, "It's over there. If you hurry, don't let the new lady get lost."
Madam Lu knew that her fear of getting lost was fake, and her real fear of her running away was fake, so she held Feng Yuheng tightly and almost escorted her in that direction.
Feng Yuheng's ears twitched slightly, paying close attention to the movements outside the veil, until she turned a corner and Mrs. Lu stopped, suddenly lifted half of the veil on her head, and then said to her: "We're here, go in by yourself, I'll wait for you outside." As a noble lady of an official family, it was impossible for her to accompany a maid to the toilet, even if this maid was about to become Duanmu Anguo's concubine.
A strange smile appeared on Feng Yuheng's lips. She was sure that there was no one else here except the two of them.
Mrs. Lu saw this kind of smile, and she didn't care, but her heart suddenly "skipped" and she had a bad premonition. This premonition instantly evolved into "this girl is definitely going to run away", so she grabbed the person reflexively and said urgently: "Run? Don't even think about it. This is the governor's mansion, there are servants everywhere, as long as you come in, you can't escape even if you have wings!"
Feng Yuheng's smile was still on her face, even stronger than before. She told Madam Lu: "I won't run. I got in with great difficulty, why should I run?"
"Huh?" Mrs. Lu was stunned. "It was so hard to get in? What do you mean?"
"It means literally." Feng Yuheng said this, and suddenly raised his hand and hit Madam Lu on the back of the head. Before the other party could react, she fainted on the ground.
Feng Yuheng snorted coldly, thinking that it was really boring to deal with such a person who had no fighting ability at all. She could easily deal with him with just a raise of her hand. She didn't know where the other party got the courage to plot against others.
She squatted down and threw Mrs. Lu directly into the pharmacy space, then stood there for a while, calculating that the time was almost up, and then returned along the same route.
The old woman was still standing in the yard waiting for her. When she saw her coming back, she was startled at first, then she looked back, but didn't see Madam Lu. She couldn't help but frowned and asked in dissatisfaction: "Why did you lift the veil? Where is your wife?"
Feng Yuheng said, "Madam said she had something to do, so she went back to the front yard through the small path and asked Qianxi to come back by herself. Qianxi had no choice but to lift her veil a little to see the way."
The old woman waved her hand, opened her veil again, and said impatiently: "Forget it, forget it, you are from a small and useless family. You still call her Madam now. Once you have established yourself in the Governor's Mansion, she will try every means to curry favor with you." As she spoke, she pulled Feng Yuheng into the house. The maids who were serving in the courtyard came over early in the morning, congratulated Feng Yuheng, and then opened the door and invited her in.
The old woman sat in the room for a while, gave a few instructions, and then let Feng Yuheng sit on the bed while she went outside to do some work. As soon as she stepped out of the room, she immediately ordered the people outside: "Lock the door, watch carefully, don't let a fly out!"
A smart-talking maid outside immediately replied, "What are you talking about, mother-in-law? This room is very clean. Besides, it's so cold, how could there be flies?"
The old woman snorted and left a message, "Anyway, just watch carefully. I'll go ask the Grand Commander to come over right now. Given the Grand Commander's personality, he will definitely come over to see the new lady first even if today is his birthday party." After that, she flicked her sleeves and left.
As soon as he left, the door was locked. Feng Yuheng lifted the veil on his head with a smile on his lips, and then looked at the room. There were two rooms inside and outside, separated by a small screen. The windows and doors were closed. Through the window paper, he could clearly see many wooden strips nailed outside, just like a cage.
She sneered and stood up. The bed she was sitting on was indeed made with great effort. It was covered with a bright red forged quilt with mandarin ducks embroidered on it. Even the pillow was made of a whole piece of red jade and covered with sable fur. It was extremely luxurious.
Without waiting for long, she quickly pulled Madam Lu out of the space, threw her directly onto the bed, and then hurriedly took off all her clothes. After thinking about it, she simply stuffed her back into the space and stuffed her into the quilt. After doing all this, she reached out her hand to one of her acupoints and pressed hard. The brief coma caused by the heavy blow to the back of her head immediately passed, and she regained consciousness.
But just when she woke up, the silver needle in Feng Yuheng's hand was about to fall on her acupuncture points, and Mrs. Lu felt her body numb and could not move again. Not only could she not move, but she could not speak either. However, her eyes were still working and her mind was clear. She just stared at Feng Yuheng blankly, with infinite panic rising in her heart.
She really wanted to ask who Feng Yuheng was, but she couldn't say anything, and there was nothing she could do no matter how anxious she was. Feng Yuheng was looking down at her at this moment, with a smile on his face, and the feeling of being in control of the world between his eyebrows was expressed without reservation. He was no longer the timid girl who was sold by her master to follow her.
Mrs. Lu finally realized that she had been deceived. But why did this girl lie to her? Who was this person? Also, where was she lying? Why did she feel naked?
Countless question marks appeared in her mind, but unfortunately, Feng Yuheng could not give her any answers. He just opened his mouth and said lightly: "Since you want to curry favor with Duanmu Anguo so much, then use the most direct method. What's the point of sending a maid? If you want to get on this bed, you should say it yourself." After saying that, he raised his hand, and a big red wedding veil instantly covered Mrs. Lu's eyes, completely isolating her sight from this blood-red scene.
Feng Yuheng stood up, raised his lips and chuckled, then walked around the room leisurely. After making sure that there was nothing worth discovering, he did not delay any longer, covered his left wrist with his right hand, hid his figure, and walked out quickly using the space.
Her target location was the Buddhist temple where the eldest lady was. When the old woman was setting the rules last night, she had told her that every concubine who entered the mansion had to go outside the Buddhist temple to kowtow to the eldest lady first, but the eldest lady simply refused to see her, so in the end this procedure was simply skipped and instead the servants would bring the concubine's name tag to the Buddhist temple for the eldest lady to see.
In the courtyard where Feng Yuheng was sent, there happened to be a maid who was ordered to deliver a name tag to the Buddhist temple. She followed all the way, appearing and disappearing, until she reached the path in front of the Buddhist temple, and then suddenly attacked, knocked the girl unconscious, and then threw the girl and the name tag into the space. After thinking about it, she simply slipped in and changed the girl's clothes for herself. When she came out, she had become a servant in the governor's mansion.
She walked quickly to the Buddhist temple, passed through the corridor, and came to a moon gate. As expected, she was stopped by two female guards who were obviously skilled in martial arts. One of them asked her, "Where are you from?"
Feng Yuheng quickly replied, "I am here to deliver the new lady's name card as ordered."
"New Madam?" The female guard snorted coldly, "Cats and dogs are so bold as to call themselves Madam." Then she stretched out her hand to Feng Yuheng, "Give it to me."
Feng Yuheng said with embarrassment: "There is no name tag this time."
"No name tag? What are you doing here without a name tag?"
Feng Yuheng quickly explained: "Because the identity of the new lady entering the mansion this time is rather embarrassing, the commander-in-chief ordered that no name card be made, and only let this servant come and tell the first lady verbally."
"Oh?" The two female guards heard that there seemed to be something going on here. Their eyes met and one of them asked, "What is the identity of the new lady?"
Feng Yuheng sighed softly and said, "She is the...niece of the governor." Mobile phone:
