Feng Yuheng leaned against the car window and pondered, "The second young lady of the left prime minister's family?" Why did she feel like she was being talked about? "Hey!" She reached out and patted Xuan Tianming, "The court has a new left prime minister?"
Xuan Tianming nodded, "The original book provincial government affairs, from a first-rank official to take over Feng Jinyuan's position..."
"Oh." She looked outside again. The maid's arrogant and domineering appearance reminded her of Feng Fendai in the past. "Let's go." She sat back and stopped looking. She let the maid's scolding continue. She could vaguely hear more insults against Xiangrong.
Xuan Tianming asked her: "Don't care? Aren't you very good to your third sister?"
Feng Yuheng said, "Xiang Rong didn't suffer any loss. A piece of fine Shu brocade with two ducks embroidered on it. If Xiang Rong really did it, I really want to applaud her. But I'm afraid her personality won't allow her to do such a satisfying thing. I'll ask her what happened later. Now we should go to the palace to report to our father. Anyway, we're back in the capital, and there's plenty of time to slowly plan for family matters."
Here, the two people's carriages went straight to the palace, while the other vehicles that entered the city together returned to the Princess's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion respectively.
At this moment, in Feng Mansion, a maid was anxiously telling Xiangrong what happened in the embroidery shop. Xiangrong was shocked: "What did you say? It turned into a water duck?"
The girl nodded. "Not only was it embroidered into a duck, but the stitching was also extremely awkward and ugly. The bride's maid was so angry that she stood at the door of the embroidery shop and cursed and refused to leave. Not only did she want us to compensate for all the losses, but she also wanted you, the third young lady, to kneel in front of the door of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion to apologize to her young lady."
Xiangrong was so angry that she turned around and around. "If I had known that he could cause me such trouble, I would never have given him the material. He is really more of a hindrance than a help." She waved her hand, dismissed the girl, and said to her personal maid Shancha, "Quick, pack up, let's go to Prince Ping's mansion to settle accounts with him!"
After a while, the two of them stormed out of the yard. Xiang Rong had never been so angry before. Damn Xuan Tianyi, embroidering ducks on the wedding dress, how could he think of that? Wasn't he deliberately embarrassing her? "In my opinion, the emperor shouldn't have been kind enough to let him move back to Prince Ping's mansion to be confined. This kind of person should...should be sent to the mountains to become a monk."
Shancha advised her, "Miss, don't be too angry. In my opinion, the Fourth Prince did the right thing! The young lady of the new Left Prime Minister's family is also too much. It's true that we opened the shop, but there are special embroiderers who can embroider things. Why does she want you to embroider for her? This is clearly a humiliation! Miss, you shouldn't settle with the Fourth Prince, you should thank him!"
"Nonsense!" Xiangrong glared at Shancha. "What do you know? Although he was demoted to a commoner and is still in custody, he is a prince after all. He is fearless. Who am I? The Feng Mansion now is not the same as before. Even in the past, I was just a concubine's daughter. Our status is very different. It's better to keep out of trouble and not cause any trouble."
The two of them walked out of the house while talking. Just as they reached the door, Fendai walked in from outside. The two sisters bumped into each other. Fendai laughed on the spot when she saw Xiangrong's appearance, "Hey, where are you going, third sister? I heard that something big happened in the embroidery shop. You ruined their Shu brocade, and they called you by name to kneel down and apologize!"
Xiangrong didn't want to argue with Fendai, so she turned aside and tried to bypass her. Unfortunately, Fendai was always looking for trouble. Seeing that Xiangrong was trying to bypass her, she immediately moved half a step to the side and blocked Xiangrong's way.
"Fourth sister." Xiangrong asked her, "Are you okay?"
"What? Can't you talk to your third sister if you have nothing to do? I mean well, sister. You should think about why others dare to ask you to be a lowly embroiderer by your name. It's because you don't have a good support. Now my family can't be relied on, but girls, after all, can only rely on their husband's family. I remember that your third sister was very close to the Seventh Prince. The Seventh Prince even sent clothes to you... Oh, no, that's a misunderstanding. He sent them for Feng Yuheng's sake." She smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth, and looked at Xiangrong with contempt on her face.
Xiangrong didn't want to argue with her too much. She knew this fourth sister too well. It seemed that she was born to stir up trouble. No one could hide from her. In the past, when the second sister was in the mansion, she could still restrain herself, but now she didn't say anything or care about it.
Xiangrong took two steps to the side and tried to go out of the house. This time, Fendai did not stop him. She just raised her head and shouted to the servant at the door, "Be quick. Those are all fine fabrics sent by the Fifth Prince. Be careful not to damage them."
Xuan Tianyan was as kind to Fendai as ever. Xiangrong couldn't understand why the Fifth Prince saw in Fendai, but things in this world are unpredictable, especially love.
"Alas!" Fen Dai sighed exaggeratedly again, and her words were even more sarcastic: "People, you should have self-awareness. You don't even look at your own character, and you still dream of the Seventh Prince."
Xiangrong felt a pain in her heart, but her expression turned cold. She reminded Fendai, "Fourth sister, go back quickly. I just heard my brother crying again."
"Hmph!" Fendai's face suddenly darkened, she glared at Xiangrong fiercely, and walked towards the mansion. As she walked, she said to the maid Dongying beside her: "Why can't you kill that child? He cries all day long, and I'm almost fed up with him."
Dong Ying whispered, "We can't help it. The people left by the Second Miss are keeping a close eye on them. We have tried several times but failed. I am afraid that if we try again, we will anger those people, which will not be good for the Fourth Miss."
Fen Dai gritted her teeth in anger, "Feng Yuheng, why didn't she die on the battlefield of Qian Zhou?"
Xiangrong stood outside the mansion, waiting for Shancha to call the driver, but her eyes unconsciously looked in one direction. Fendai's sarcastic words were still ringing in her ears, but she hadn't been to Prince Chun's Mansion for a long time. She didn't go out often, at most she would go to the embroidery shop, and occasionally when Xuan Tianyi was upset, she would go to Prince Ping's Mansion. But these two places were in the opposite direction of Prince Chun's Mansion, so she didn't even have the opportunity to pass by the gate of Prince Chun's Mansion once.
"Miss, get in the carriage!" Shancha ran over, and the driver followed behind. This carriage was hired. There were only two carriages in the Feng Mansion, one for Fendai and one for Feng Jinyuan and the Cheng sisters. If other people wanted to go out, they would not be restricted as they were when the old lady was here. After all, they were no longer a wealthy family, but they could only spend money to hire a carriage.
When Xiangrong got on the carriage, she was thinking, no wonder the new left prime minister's daughter treated her like an embroiderer so wantonly. Now she was just a daughter of a commoner family. If she didn't have a maid by her side, she couldn't even be called a lady.
Xuantian Ming Feng Yuheng's return to the capital did not cause too much noise. Even when the carriage arrived at the palace gate, the imperial guards guarding the gate were startled. They never expected that Prince Yu and Princess Ji'an would come back.
For a while, the palace was in an uproar. The news of Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng entering the palace spread quickly, from the front court to the harem, and became the most talked about topic of the day.
When the two met Tianwu, they were in the Qiankun Hall. Zhang Yuan was standing at the door to greet them. When he saw them approaching, he quickly came over to salute them, knocked his head to the ground, and said with tears of gratitude: "Your Highness, Princess, you are finally back."
Xuan Tianming frowned and asked him, "Why do you seem like you can't live any longer?"
Zhang Yuan wiped his face and said, "If Your Highness doesn't come back, I really can't live. The Emperor... is too difficult to serve."
"Hmph." Xuan Tianming snorted, "What's wrong with the old guy again?"
Zhang Yuan sighed, "It would be fine if he was the only one making trouble." Then he met Xuan Tianming's questioning gaze, but did not say anything else. He just stood up and made a gesture of invitation, "Your Highness, please go in quickly. The emperor is waiting."
Feng Yuheng figured out something. Although she was curious, she knew that now was not the time to ask, so she followed Xuan Tianming into the main hall. When they walked into the main hall, they looked up and saw Tianwu sitting on the dragon chair with a cushion in his arms. He looked even more depressed than Zhang Yuan, and stared at them with dead eyes.
The two of them wanted to salute, and Xuan Tianming was halfway through kneeling, but he was glared at by those dead fish eyes, and he stood up again in anger. "The North Realm has been pacified, and Qian Zhou has been defeated, what is your attitude?" He was extremely puzzled, "Shouldn't you be happy?"
Tianwu rolled his eyes and said, "I fought for your wife, why should I be happy?"
Feng Yuheng heard that the old man was unhappy, so he quickly said, "If the emperor regrets and feels sorry for that piece of land, I will return it to you." It was a ruin, and it would be exhausting to manage it.
Unexpectedly, Tianwu waved his hand and said, "No!" Then he looked up and asked them, "Did you come directly to me after entering the palace?"
Isn't this nonsense? Xuan Tianming stared, "Where else can we go?"
"Yuehan Palace!" Tianwu was furious. "As a son, and your mother's only biological son, you have been fighting for nearly a year. What? After returning to the palace, shouldn't you report your safety to your mother first? Do you have that mother in your heart? You have no conscience, I will beat you to death!"
As he said that, he actually threw the cushion in his hand out, hitting Xuan Tianming on the head.
Zhang Yuan grinned and quickly advised: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, don't be angry. Your Highness and the Princess are also loyal and filial. The general must report military intelligence first when he returns to the court. This is a rule that has been passed down through the ages!"
Tianwu also knew this. He was reluctant to admit his mistake, but he also stopped insisting on his own opinion. He just sat there unwillingly without saying a word.
Xuan Tianming did not argue with him anymore. Standing in the hall, he recounted his trip to the north from beginning to end. It was official and general, like a minister's report, but it was more like telling a story, describing every detail in detail, which made Tianwu go from not wanting to listen at first to being full of passion at the end.
When talking about the battle against the King of Qian Zhou, he leaned half of his body forward, with his two elbows on the table, and asked a question that Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng had ignored - please visit:
