Her voice was cold and emotionless, and her eyes were indifferent and empty. She looked at Yao, but it was as if she could not see anything. To Feng Yuheng, Yao was just a stranger now. There was no affection or even emotion for her. What she had was just hatred and regret.
"Let go of your hands." Feng Yuheng's voice was like a spell, and the commanding tone made Yao Shi subconsciously listen to her words. She took her hands down in a daze, and only realized why she had to listen to Feng Yuheng until they were completely dropped. However, Feng Yuheng's voice continued: "You just choked my throat, and the part was fatal. I have every reason to accuse you of murder." She said calmly and rationally, as if she was stating the case.
But Yao Shi didn't understand. She was frightened by Feng Yuheng beating Fu Ya before, and now she was frightened by what Feng Yuheng said. Murder? What is murder? She was just pinching Feng Yuheng's neck, how could it be considered murder?
At this time, Xuan Tianhua's words took Feng Yuheng's statement a step further: "Madam Yao, if the princess hadn't stopped you in time, you would have strangled her to death. This is murder."
"I didn't!" Yao took a step back and said in horror, "How could I have the ability to strangle her to death? She is Princess Ji'an, she knows martial arts, how could I, a woman with no strength, strangle her to death?" Yao's eyes gradually became fierce, "I really want to strangle her to death, only if she dies, my daughter will be my good daughter without any obstruction. If she doesn't die, all this will never end, and my daughter will never come back."
Yao was on the verge of collapse. Fu Ya half-climbed up and hugged Yao's calf, calling softly, "Mother, mother, please don't be angry. It's all my fault. I failed to protect you."
The cry of "mother" softened Yao's heart. She sat on the ground and hugged Fu Ya. The two of them cried and comforted each other. For a moment, Feng Yuheng was reminded of the time when they were in the mountain village in the northwest. Yao didn't know how to cook. In order to make food for her two siblings, she accidentally burned the kitchen. They also hugged each other and cried and comforted each other. It's only been a few years, and it has become like this.
"Yao." Feng Yuheng's voice rose again, "I actually don't understand why you insist on not recognizing me. If you are sure that I am not your daughter, if you are obsessed and just want to get back the Feng Yuheng who can only depend on you and has no ability to resist like you, then you should investigate the truth of the matter, right? You should investigate why your daughter suddenly changed, and suddenly she is not the original daughter. I know medical skills, and my medical skills are even better than my grandfather's. My medical skills cannot be taught by my grandfather. I also know martial arts, and it is impossible to master such good riding and shooting skills in three years. These, you even doubted, why didn't you check? You didn't recognize me without investigation, but why did you recognize her in a muddle?" She pointed at Fu Ya, her hands trembling, "If I am not your daughter, then, she must be, right? Don't you have any doubts about her?"
Facing Feng Yuheng's questioning, Yao answered as if it was a matter of course this time: "That's right, I don't have any doubts about her. She is my daughter, absolutely true! And you, are not."
Feng Yuheng nodded. This time, she no longer felt any sadness. At this point, she had no more feelings for this Yao family except for the memory of that face. And this face that looked exactly like her mother in her previous life began to blur quietly in front of her eyes and gradually disintegrated in her heart. Feng Yuheng knew that from now on, she would no longer be bound by this so-called blood relationship. She was herself, not the daughter of Yao family, nor the daughter of Feng family.
"Okay. I'm not." She told Yao, "I'm indeed not your daughter, so from now on I will no longer recognize you. I'm just the Princess Ji'an of the Dashun Dynasty, the future principal wife of the Ninth Prince. Oh, of course, you can also let your daughter compete for the position of the principal wife of the Prince of Yu, but I have to remind you that in the past, there were other people who coveted the position of the principal wife of the Prince of Yu, but in the end, the Ninth Prince burned down their mansions. If you don't want this villa to be burned down, you'd better not have this idea. Yao, I officially inform you today that we are no longer mother and daughter, so from now on I will not give you a penny, because I have no obligation to support a stranger. Of course, as for the subsidies given to you by the Yao family, I will not interfere, you can rest assured about this."
Yao didn't show any emotion after hearing this. She just nodded and said, "Okay, I accept it. Don't think that without your money, we will live in poverty. Even if the Yao family's share is stopped, it won't be a problem. Don't forget, you are the princess of Dashun, but I am also the wife of Dashun. I also receive a salary from the court every month. I can support myself and my Ah Heng. I don't need any of your pity." Yao said this very proudly. She picked up Fu Ya, carefully not touching her wound, and said to Fu Ya, "Don't be afraid, mother will take good care of you. I will also ask the best doctor to see you for your injury. Ah Heng, don't be afraid."
Feng Yuheng turned his head away, unwilling to look at Yao, and even more unwilling to hear her calling her name to others. At this time, Xuan Tianhua's voice came softly: "Madam Yao, I think you have misunderstood. Your life has not brought honor to your husband's family, and you have not won half the glory for Dashun. Your imperial title was completely earned for you by your daughter, and the daughter you earned is the Princess Ji'an, who has severed the mother-daughter relationship with you. Therefore, your imperial title will be taken back by the court immediately. Don't worry, I will notify the relevant officials of the court to handle this matter as soon as possible, and I won't let you wait too long."
"You..." Yao was a little flustered, "Why do you want to take away my imperial title?"
Xuan Tianhua told her in a narrative manner: "Because I am the seventh prince of Dashun."
"Can the Seventh Prince be unreasonable?"
"Reason?" Xuan Tianhua shook his head. "Don't talk to me about reason. I am the reason." After he said this, he didn't want to stay here any longer. He pulled Feng Yuxing and walked out.
Feng Yuheng was still immersed in Xuan Tianhua's last words. Even when they left the courtyard, she was still sighing, "Seventh Brother, I didn't realize that you are as good as Xuan Tianming when it comes to choking people."
Xuan Tianhua was helpless, “I thought you would be in a very low mood after experiencing something like this.”
"Then what?"
"And then it turns out that it's not like that." Xuan Tianhua pinched Feng Yuheng's face with amusement, "But I feel relieved when you're like this."
Feng Yuheng suddenly remembered something, so she said to Xuan Tianhua, "Seventh Brother, wait for me here." After that, she turned around and went back to the other courtyard. When she came out again, she took the maid Tianqing with her. "You go back." She said to Tianqing, "Thank Aunt Lan for me and tell her that I will go to the palace to see her later."
Tian Qing was slightly startled, "But Princess, the princess asked me to look after Fu Ya."
"No need." Feng Yuheng smiled faintly and shook her head. "Everything a person sees depends on the brain, not the eyes, but Yao Shi insisted on seeing the world with her own eyes, and there was nothing I could do. Go back and tell Aunt Lan that they want to die, and no one can stop them. Also, what I just said in the mansion is serious, you can learn it and tell Aunt Lan the same way. I know that Aunt Lan and Yao Shi grew up together. Maybe Aunt Lan will be unhappy and blame me for doing this, but you also saw that I have no other choice. Facing such a mother, if I continue to recognize her, it will only hurt her."
Tian Qing was helpless, so she nodded and bowed to leave. It was not until she was far away that Xuan Tianhua gently advised: "You obviously don't want to leave, don't you?"
Feng Yuheng shook her head, "So what? I am Princess Ji'an. You have seen Princess Ji'an riding a horse and shooting arrows, but when have you ever seen Princess Ji'an being sentimental?"
"No?" Xuan Tianhua thought for a moment and shook his head again, "Obviously there is, but you don't admit it yourself. You have selective amnesia. You are obviously not that strong, but you pretend to be brave. If you do this... Ming'er will be sad." He turned his head away, and his heart ached for no reason. Not only Ming'er would be sad, he would be too, but his sadness could only be in his heart, he couldn't say it out loud, let alone show it.
"Why don't you just not tell him!" Feng Yuheng smiled, using such a smile to cover up the sadness in her eyes. "I used to live this kind of life, but I won't live like this anymore. The people here have nothing to do with me anymore. I won't cry for her, let alone laugh for her. She can't find me when she encounters difficulties. No matter what happens to her, I won't lend her a helping hand. Isn't this good? There is also one less burden in my life. One day in the future, no matter who I offend or how big the trouble is, I don't have to worry about someone taking revenge on her. I will announce to the world that I have severed my mother-daughter relationship with the Yao family."
She walked forward with a smile, her arms raised easily, looking very happy and comfortable. Xuan Tianhua knew that although Feng Yuheng said that she was heartless in breaking off relations with the Yao family, in fact, it was the best protection for the Yao family. The political situation in Dashun was unstable, and many hidden dangers were hidden in the dark. Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianming were together, and it was destined that the future would not be peaceful. The girl was afraid of the incident in the past when Yao was fed Xiaoyao Powder. If she wanted to prevent such a thing from happening, it would be best to do it decisively.
"Hengheng." He chased after her, thought for a long time, and said only one sentence: "Don't worry."
At this time, Feng Yuheng had returned to normal. She no longer smiled foolishly, nor did she have the hatred she had in the courtyard. She even stopped talking nonsense and started to do her business. She stopped and shouted to the air, "Let's go."
A figure immediately appeared.
"You stay and keep an eye on that Fu Ya yourself."
Ban Zou nodded, then dodged and disappeared immediately.
Feng Yuheng then looked at Xuan Tianhua and said to him seriously: "In the days to come, Fu Ya will probably make use of her face. Don't be surprised why I didn't just destroy her face. It would be a pity to destroy it from the very beginning. We have to keep her and see which path she wants to take and who she chooses. Similarly, the person who chooses her is also a big fish we are going to catch!"
