Xuan Tianhua followed the servants of Prince Chun's mansion back to the mansion first. From the moment he appeared until he stopped, he did not even glance at Prince Lian.
Feng Zhaolian felt very frustrated. He touched his face and said to himself, "Could it be that this face has lost its effect?" Then he asked Feng Yuheng, "Take a quick look at me. Am I different today than before? Is my face smudged? Is my makeup smudged?"
Feng Yuheng was helpless: "Whether your face is stained or your makeup is smudged, what does it have to do with Brother Qi?"
Prince Lian didn't understand what Mao Xian meant, but he could guess what he meant, so he said confidently, "Because my face is the best in the world, no one can rival it, and no one can ignore it. Even the old man Duanmu Anguo was tempted when he saw my face. Unless the Seventh Prince of Dashun is not a man, there is no way he can be an exception."
Feng Yuheng glared at him: "Seventh Brother is a man, I can be sure of that, but Feng, you have to make it clear to me that you are not a woman."
"Why am I..." He wanted to say why I am not a woman, but then he changed his mind and said, "Why do I look like a woman?"
Huang Quan couldn't listen any more and interrupted, "It's just appearance, do you think everyone is as blind as Feng Jinyuan? At least our Ninth Prince didn't treat you as a woman at the beginning! The Seventh Prince is as wise and brave as the Ninth Prince, so he can naturally tell the difference between male and female. Don't let your wishful thinking continue."
Wang Chuan also nodded, "Yes, don't harm His Majesty the Seventh Prince."
"How did it become a disaster for him?" Feng Zhaolian was very depressed, but there was nothing he could do. At this time, Xuan Tianhua's carriage had disappeared, and there was no practical meaning for him to stay here. He thought about it and decided to go back and plan the next chance encounter with the Seventh Prince. After all, everyone lived in the capital, so there were still plenty of opportunities. So he waved his hand, "Forget it, I see that Yaya you are also very busy, so I will go back first, and we will meet next time." After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back.
Feng Yuheng was speechless. He pointed at Feng Zhaolian's back and said to the two girls, "Why do I feel like he brought me out just to see Seventh Brother?"
The two girls said in unison: "Miss, you just understood?"
At this time, a spirit appeared behind Feng Zhaolian. Feng Yuheng vaguely heard the spirit say, "Master, you must stand firm. It is important for us to cure the disease. Otherwise, even if I die, I will not be able to face the old prince and the princess."
Feng Yuheng waved his hands helplessly and said, "Let's go, let's go back too." After that, he took Zirui's hand and walked back.
Zi Rui looked at the direction where the Lotus King left in confusion and asked his sister: "Who was that girl just now? How could she be so pretty? She is countless times prettier than the big sister before."
Feng Zirui was young and had not seen many beauties. In his memory, Feng Chenyu was undoubtedly the most beautiful one. But now that he had seen the Lotus King, Feng Chenyu was immediately outshined.
Feng Yuheng told him: "Whether you are looking at people or things, you can't just look at the appearance. For example, the person you just saw, you think he should be a girl, but in fact he is a man, but he is so good-looking that some people always mistake him for a woman."
Feng Zirui was completely stunned.
At that time, Xuan Tianhua's carriage was moving at full speed and finally arrived in front of Prince Chun's mansion. As soon as he got off the carriage and took a look inside the mansion gate, he immediately felt that something was wrong with the painting.
The always low-key and elegant Prince Chun's Mansion seemed to be gone. Instead, there were colorful flowers, colorful silks, cats, dogs, small animals, and birds singing all over the yard. As soon as he entered the yard, he immediately smelled a fragrance, but it was not the sandalwood he was used to, but a floral and fruity fragrance. Although it smelled good, no matter how he smelled it or looked at it, it felt feminine. The quiet and elegant style he was used to was completely destroyed.
Xuan Tianhua was shocked. He walked into the mansion and asked someone to close the door. He had only taken two steps into the yard when two puppies ran over, one in front and one behind. They circled around him and sniffed at him, but did not bark. They just wagged their tails happily.
In addition, a few very fat tabby cats came over and meowed a few times.
The birds in the yard were not kept in cages. They flew around among the flowers and trees, and from time to time they circled in front of and behind him, then flew back into the woods, looking extremely happy.
Xuan Tianhua looked at the flowers and plants that had been transplanted at some point, the tall trees, the bamboo fences on both sides of the yard, and the colorful gauze hanging between the trees. He simply thought he had walked into the wrong place. This was not his Prince Chun's mansion at all, but a beautiful forest with birds singing and flowers blooming, which was refreshing and pleasant.
But looking at the servants in the mansion, old and young, they all changed their clothes. They no longer wore the servants' uniforms assigned according to their ranks. Instead, they dressed casually, and each one was different. The male servants wore linen, while the female servants wore colorful clothes. The women wore embroidered cloth shoes, while the men wore hemp straw shoes made of coarse hemp ropes. Not only were they barefoot, but they also exposed their toes. They didn't comb their hair properly, but let it hang loose and braided it into countless pigtails. Men, women, young and old were all like this. Even the housekeeper couldn't escape the bad luck.
This was not surprising. When Xuan Tianhua walked around the main courtyard and headed for the second courtyard, he heard bursts of singing coming from inside. A few male voices, a few female voices, singing to each other in very high voices, as if they were shouting.
He carefully deciphered the lyrics, and gradually figured out the meaning -
Male singer: You are on the other side of the mountains! I am on this side of the mountains! You are on the other side of the river! I am on this side of the river! Girl, girl, why don’t you look at me more!
Female singer: I am on this side of the mountain! You are on the other side of the mountain! I am on this side of the river! You are on the other side of the river! My man, my man, why don’t you let me take one more look at you!
This is a folk song!
Xuan Tianhua finally understood what he heard. It turned out to be a folk song.
When he turned around the corridor and stood in front of the second courtyard, he finally saw the situation clearly. He saw the servants in the mansion divided into two teams, one male and one female, each with five people, standing at the two ends of the courtyard, each holding their hands to their mouths and shouting and singing loudly to the opposite side. The lyrics were obviously sincere, but the singers were obviously not thinking, and their expressions were very painful.
The servant who followed Xuan Tianhua and had stopped him on the street to go back to the mansion first also said to him in a low voice with a sad face: "Your Highness, this is the daily homework of our mansion now. If you don't sing to the satisfaction of that girl, you won't be given food." As he said, he pointed to the front and said: "One night, the Ninth Prince and Princess Ji'an suddenly sent a girl to the mansion, and said that this girl must be worshipped like an ancestor. Whatever she said must be what it is, and no one is allowed to refute it. She just wants to rebel, and we all have to help her." The servant was very puzzled, "Your Highness, who is this person? Look at what she has done to the mansion? The servants are all worried. If you don't come back, what if one day she really says she wants to rebel, then should we help her or not?"
Xuan Tianhua stroked his forehead, "Help, why not? Didn't I say that this person is the ancestor?"
“Ah?” The servant was puzzled. Is there such a young ancestor?
Xuan Tianhua waved his hand: "Forget it, as long as she is happy, she can do whatever she wants! You guys just bear with it, I'd better go to the palace to meet the emperor first."
Seeing Xuan Tianhua said he wanted to enter the palace, the servants could not stop him and moved aside to make room for him. But just before Xuan Tianhua turned around, he heard a sweet voice from behind - "Hua'er!" Then, a fragrant breeze blew over.
He had no choice but to turn back. When he stood up, he saw a person in white clothes rushing towards him. He was hugged instantly. Two slender arms wrapped around his neck, hugging him tightly.
"Hua'er! You're finally back! I missed you so much!"
Xuan Tianhua wanted to cry, "Why are you here?"
The guard who came back with Xuan Tianhua was also shocked: "Brother Tian?"
Someone let go of Xuan Tianhua with a smile, and patted the guard on the shoulder: "Okay, okay."
Xuan Tianhua pulled Concubine Yun into the house. When they passed the servants singing folk songs, Concubine Yun said loudly, "You guys should leave first. We'll continue tomorrow. I want to have a private chat with Hua'er for a while."
The servants dispersed immediately as if they had received a general pardon, fearing that the other party would change their minds if they left too late.
Xuan Tianhua pulled Concubine Yun back to the main hall of the second courtyard and dismissed all the servants. Only then did he reluctantly take off the veil covering Concubine Yun's face with his own hands and asked her, "Didn't Ming'er send you back to the palace? Why did you come to me?"
Concubine Yun blinked and said seriously, "As for the palace, I've already been back, and now I'm out again."
"She sneaked out again?" He couldn't understand. How capable was Concubine Yun to be able to escape successfully every time?
Unexpectedly, this time, Concubine Yun shook her head and said, "I didn't sneak out. I walked out of the palace openly under the old man's nose with his consent and permission."
"How is it possible?" Xuan Tianhua didn't believe it, "Will the emperor let you leave the palace?"
"Why not? Hua'er, you don't know yet, right? Someone in the palace wants to harm me." Concubine Yun looked pitiful, and she complained to Xuan Tianhua with a pursed mouth.
The two brothers Xuan Tianhua and Xuan Tianming were most afraid of their mother playing this trick. When Concubine Yun showed this little look, they softened their hearts - "What's wrong? Who wants to harm you?" Xuan Tianhua asked with concern, and then felt something was wrong: "There has always been someone in the palace who wants to harm you, right? Father hasn't been in the harem for more than 20 years, and those concubines must have hated you for a long time."
"It's different this time. They took action." A sharp light flashed in Concubine Yun's eyes, and she continued, "You may not know, Yuehan Palace was burned down by someone, not a hair was left. It's a good thing I wasn't in the palace. If I was there, I would have been burned to death."
"What?" Xuan Tianhua was shocked. Even if he was a god, he would never tolerate someone using such means to harm his mother. "Who is it?"
Yun Fei shrugged: "How should I know, I..."
She was about to say a few more words when a servant's voice came from outside the door, saying, "Your Highness, there is someone outside the mansion who wants to see you."
Xuan Tianhua frowned: "I won't see any guests today, go and refuse them!"
The servant outside the door did not leave, and hesitantly said, "We have refused, but the man said that Your Highness, you can see him whether you want to or not."
"Oh?" Xuan Tianhua was stunned, "Who is coming?"
The servant replied: "He said...it was your...ancestor!"
