Feng Yuheng realized that there might be something wrong with the clothes, but the clothes were made for her by Xu, and she had no doubts about Xu, so what was the problem?
Feng Yuheng frowned and thought for a while. She didn't even notice Xuan Tiange and Xiangrong talking to her. She just said, "I'm going to talk to my aunt for a while. You go first." After saying that, she turned around and walked away.
Rong Rong wanted to turn around to look, but Xuan Tiange pulled her back: "Let's go our own way. Your second sister always has her own ideas when doing things. If we follow her, we will only cause trouble for her."
When Feng Yuheng arrived at Xu's place, Xu was pulling Lu Yao and saying, "Qiankun Palace is not like the Imperial Garden. After all, the rules are more relaxed in places where ladies gather. There are ministers, princes, and the emperor in Qiankun Palace. We must think more about what we say and do. Remember, the more you talk, the more mistakes you make. No matter what others say, we must control our mouths."
Lu Yao nodded obediently and said, "I will follow my mother's instructions."
Xu said: "It can't be called teaching, it's just a reminder."
While the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were talking, Qin and Miao both hid aside. It was certainly not that they were estranged from Xu, they just didn't like Lu Yao.
Seeing Feng Yuheng coming, Xu patted Lu Yao's arm and said, "Go and talk to your sisters. I see that you haven't bothered to greet them since you entered the palace. It's not a good idea for me to hold your hand all the time. Go!"
Lu Yao glanced at Feng Yuheng, nodded, and then smiled at Xu and said, "Thank you for your understanding, mother. I will go talk to my sisters and come back to serve you later." After saying that, she bowed and slowly stepped back.
Only then did Xu warmly take Feng Yuheng's arm and ask, "Ah Heng, is there something wrong? I saw you and Princess Wuyang were walking together just fine, it seems like you came here suddenly."
Feng Yuheng comforted her, saying that it was not a big deal, but she just thought that she couldn't leave her aunt behind, so she should come over to accompany her.
The two talked for a while, and Feng Yuheng deliberately led the topic to the dress, and said casually: "Aunt's needlework is really good. Even Princess Wuyang praised this dress and said it was beautiful."
When Mrs. Xu heard this, she was delighted and continued, "I spent a lot of time embroidering this dress, and I was afraid you wouldn't like it. But to be honest, the ladies from all families are competing with each other for beauty today, and I think this dress is still a little lacking. I'm afraid it's unfair for me to accompany you."
Feng Yuheng said, "I don't feel wronged. Clothes made by relatives are a sign of family affection. It has nothing to do with status. My aunt also knows the situation of the Feng family, as well as my mother... If it weren't for my aunt's care, I'm afraid Ah Heng would never be able to wear clothes made by relatives in his life."
When she mentioned Yao, Xu was also helpless. They sighed for a while, and Feng Yuheng said, "I was originally worried that Lu Yao would be jealous of this dress made by my aunt, but just now I saw that she was very polite when talking to my aunt, so I felt relieved."
Xu smiled bitterly, "She saw me embroidering this dress, and asked me who I was embroidering for. When she heard it was for you, she asked to help." Xu was a kind-hearted person, and she tried not to think badly of others. Although she always had a grudge against Lu Yao, she was never stingy with her praise for Lu Yao's good deeds. "I was moved by her enthusiasm, and I thought that she must be regretting what she did with Xiangrong before the wedding, and she felt bad."
Feng Yuheng didn't say anything. She wasn't a complete conspiracy theorist, but some facts were right in front of her. If she didn't wake up, she would be a fool. There was something wrong with this dress, she had no doubt about it, and this problem was 100% related to Lu Yao.
She chatted with Xu for a while, then found an excuse to leave. Before leaving, she glanced at Lu Yao and Lu Yan. Although the two sisters were walking together, they didn't communicate at all. Lu Yan looked at Lu Yao with disdain from time to time, with a look of disdain on her face.
Soon, the women came to the door of Qiankun Hall. The Queen also knew that the ladies who had just ridden horses were not well-mannered, and fearing that they would offend the Queen, she allowed the palace maids to take them to the back hall to tidy up. Feng Yuheng also took this opportunity to leave temporarily, and quickly hid in the space in a deserted place.
She took off the clothes quickly, and when she looked carefully, she found nothing unusual at the back of her neck. But when she touched it, she found something inside the collar. She didn't check the clothes carefully before putting them on, because it was sent by Xu. Her full trust made her lose her caution, and she even forgot that there was still a Lu Yao living in the Yao family mansion.
Feng Yuheng immediately used scissors to open the collar. It would have been fine if he hadn't opened it, but once he did, he was shocked to find that there was something hidden inside the collar.
However, the itching thing was nothing, just a few hairs plucked from a wolf-hair brush, but what made her feel pain were the countless tiny needle tips! It was not difficult to see that those needle tips were knocked off from extremely thin embroidery needles, and there were as many as twenty of them when she counted them carefully.
Feng Yuheng frowned. Although these things were not fatal, they could make people feel uncomfortable, so uncomfortable that they would make a fool of themselves at the palace banquet. Besides, the clothes were made by Xu. If she had any estrangement from the Yao family, Xu would be guilty. Lu Yao, Lu Yao! You had a really good idea.
She threw her clothes on the ground, her pretty face full of anger. It seems that she was too kind to Lu Yao. Some people will not cry until they see the coffin. She tolerated the other party again and again because of Yao Shu, but she didn't expect that her tolerance would be exchanged for the other party's ruthlessness. A trace of sharpness flashed across Yu Fengyuheng's eyes. Lu Yao, she was not going to let that woman go!
After changing into several sets of clothes that were originally prepared in the space, when she came out of the space, there was no one around, and Feng Yuheng walked quickly towards the Qiankun Palace.
At the same time, a woman who arrived late also came to the Qiankun Palace under the guidance of a young eunuch. The young eunuch looked a little puzzled, but was very polite to the woman. When the woman said, "You go back first, I can go in by myself," the young eunuch did not think much about it, bowed and retreated.
However, the woman did not enter the Qiankun Hall. Instead, she went around to the garden on the side of the hall. Then she stopped beside a rockery, put one hand on her chest, and gasped for breath.
Is this the imperial palace? Fu Ya looked at the Qiankun Palace not far away. The sound of dance and music there was still clear to her ears. From time to time, palace maids and dancers would shuttle in front of the palace, making it very lively.
Fu Ya was very nervous. This was her first time to enter the palace, and she came here at the instigation of Yao. The little confidence she had cultivated outside the palace had been hit to pieces at this moment. She arrived late. When she entered the palace, she heard the servants in the imperial garden say that everyone had gone to the horse farm, so she hurried there. But after arriving at the horse farm, she heard that the queen had taken everyone to the Qiankun Palace, so she immediately found a palace servant and asked him to lead her to the Qiankun Palace. For some reason, the young eunuch was very respectful when he saw her, and even had a little admiration and fear. At first, Fu Ya thought that she was able to enter the palace, which made these eunuchs think that she was of noble status, so she behaved like this, but later she realized that it was not the case. The reason why people respected and feared her was because she looked too much like Feng Yuheng. Because these eunuchs had seen Feng Yuheng and the clothes he wore at the horse farm before, they did not make a mistake at once, but they were still distracted and did not dare to recognize or provoke her.
Fu Ya sent the palace servants away and did not dare to go directly into the palace. She found this garden to rest for a while. The palace was too big. She rushed from Ruimen to the Imperial Garden, then from the Imperial Garden to the horse farm, and then from the horse farm to the Qiankun Palace. She kept walking and was exhausted. It was really inappropriate for her to go into the palace like this.
Fu Ya had planned to take a short break here, but she didn't expect that before she could catch her breath, she saw a woman walking by the garden. She looked about 13 or 14 years old, wearing a long pink dress, and was very beautiful. The woman glanced at the garden and caught sight of Fu Ya. This look scared the woman, and she suddenly shivered and stopped.
Fu Ya's heart was in her throat. She watched the woman walk closer to her step by step, then looked her up and down, and then stared at her for a long time. She asked in confusion: "Princess Ji...Princess Ji'an? Have you changed your clothes?" Thinking about it again, Feng Yuheng had also ridden a horse just now. There were too many people she knew in this palace, so it was normal for her to change clothes. She was relieved and bowed happily: "Hello, Princess, why are you standing here? Aren't you going into the palace?" Strange, she had talked to Feng Yuheng for a long time before, why did she feel so strange now? It seemed like a different person, but this didn't make sense, it was obviously Feng Yuheng's face.
Lu Yan was puzzled, but she didn't show it on her face. She talked to Fu Ya enthusiastically for a while, but the conversation became more and more boring. She was talking all the time, while the woman she called Princess Ji'an turned from a confused look to helplessness at this moment. She listened to what she said, but didn't respond at all. Her personality was very different from Feng Yuheng. Although Feng Yuheng didn't show mercy to people he didn't like, he could still get by in this situation.
Gradually, Lu Yan began to feel that something was wrong. She looked at the person in front of her carefully and soon found that she seemed to be thinner than Feng Yuheng, and a little taller. Her hair was tied differently, and her makeup was different. Even if Feng Yuheng had time to change clothes, it was impossible for her to comb her hair again, change her jewelry, and reapply makeup in such a short time. This was too wrong.
Her face turned serious, and finally, a bold idea formed in her mind - "Are you not Princess Ji'an?"
Fu Ya said helplessly: "I never said I was Princess Ji'an."
"Then why didn't you refute what I said to you for so long?"
"You keep talking and I can't even get a word in. How can I refute you?"
Lu Yan was shocked, but she suddenly remembered something. She overheard her father and mother talking once, and they seemed to have mentioned that a woman who looked very similar to Princess Ji'an appeared in the capital, and was mistaken by the half-crazy Yao as her own daughter, and had been taken to live in the other courtyard...
"You..." Lu Yan asked hesitantly, "Are you her?"
