Chapter 74 The Real Purpose of Offering Pilgrimage to Pudu Temple



After Feng Yuheng returned to the house, Wang Chuan, Huang Quan and Ban Zou all stood in front of her.

Speaking of which, she was quite satisfied with Huang Quan and Ban Zou's ability to handle the scene. When Ban Zou told her that the Feng family was standing at the scene of the fight but did not notice anything unusual, she knew how much these two had done in such a short period of time.

She hid in the bushes with Zirui in her arms, and then used the space to return to the temple. She then used the medicine in the space to wake Zirui up, and asked him to cooperate with her in this play.

As for the cooperation of the monks in the temple, it was not really cooperation. The little monk who was knocking on the wood still did not understand when a girl suddenly appeared while he was chanting with his eyes closed. And the monk who went to the back mountain to look for the Feng family took a thousand-year-old Bodhi bracelet that Feng Yuheng took out from the space.

She had no intention of commenting on the monk's behavior. She only thought that the thousand-year-old Bodhi tree was also obtained at a high price in the previous life. In this era, it might not have grown yet. It was really a priceless treasure for the monk.

"Were there any traces left when the body was handled?" she asked the two people in front of her.

Ban Zou nodded and said, "I deliberately left traces that would be discovered by Feng Jinyuan's secret guards. As for the other members of the Feng family, there is no way they would be discovered."

Feng Yuheng nodded. Very good. She just wanted Feng Jinyuan to understand that killing people was not something she was not good at. No matter who was the mastermind behind today's incident, she had to remind Feng Jinyuan - if it was you who did it, then you can't beat me; if it wasn't you, then I tell you, someone wants to kill your daughter, you can do it yourself.

This was the second time Huang Quan had been attacked with Feng Yuheng. She remembered that the Ninth Prince analyzed that it was someone from the Shen family last time, so she asked Feng Yuheng in confusion: "Miss, do you think it was done by the same group of people this time as last time?"

Feng Yuheng curled her lips, "It looks like it should be."

Wang Chuan watched all of this happen, and couldn't help but remind them, "It seems that even if the eldest daughter of the Feng family is not the mastermind, she must be an accomplice. Her behavior tonight clearly shows that she knew about the plan and deliberately exposed the fact that our daughter was not in the room, and then led the Feng family to the back mountain to look for her."

Feng Yuheng sneered. Her elder sister had a face like a bodhisattva but a heart like a snake. If such a person really took the throne, I'm afraid the whole world would be included in her calculations.

"Let's go to class." She lowered her voice and arranged another thing.

"I am here."

"Go check if Nanny Sun has any descendants. If so, check if these descendants work for the Shen family or have any connection with the Shen family."

Ban Zou nodded, "I remember." He turned to Wangchuan and Huangquan and said, "You protect the master." After he finished speaking, he disappeared.

Huang Quan and Wang Chuan didn't know about Nanny Sun, and when Feng Yuheng mentioned it, they couldn't help but feel confused.

Huang Quan asked, "Young lady, do you suspect Nanny Sun? Isn't she the Nanny that came with the Madam as a dowry?"

"So what if it's a dowry?" Feng Yuheng sighed, "Time changes, and people's hearts change too."

The next day, Pudu Temple arranged a ceremony of burning incense and lighting candles for the Feng family.

The Feng family knelt before the Buddha devoutly, each chanting something. Feng Yuheng watched all this with a cold eye, saying that the Buddha saved all living beings, but he didn't know if he could save the evil thoughts in the hearts of all living beings. It was really ironic for such a family to come to worship Buddha.

The incense burning and lamp lighting ceremony lasted from early morning to late afternoon, and everyone was already starving after it was over.

During this time, Feng Yuheng saw the princess and nephew of the Anding Wang family again. The princess's eyes were still full of hostility when she looked at her, which made Feng Yuheng laugh and cry.

After finishing the vegetarian meal, Feng Jinyuan announced to everyone that they would rest in the temple for another night and set off for Beijing early tomorrow morning, and then everyone dispersed.

But the old lady stayed.

Feng Jin knew what the old lady wanted to ask, so she took the initiative to say, "Don't worry, mother. Everything has been arranged. Tomorrow morning, a nun will come down from the temple on the top of the mountain to pick up Shen. The Feng Mansion will announce to the public that Shen is staying in the temple to pray for the Feng family."

The old lady let out a long sigh and nodded, "You did the right thing. If you continue to keep Shen in the mansion, something bad will happen sooner or later."

"Yes, the reason why my son arranged for the whole family to come to the Pudu Temple to burn incense was to find a reason for Shen to leave the house, and this would also save face for Chenyu and Zihao."

The old lady thought about the matter of Prince Wenxuan's Mansion again, and couldn't help but get angry again, "It's fine that she is domineering at home, but I never thought that she would offend Concubine Yun, and now she has offended Prince Wenxuan's Mansion. You must deal with this mess properly."

Feng Jinyuan was also worried and sighed, "Mother has also seen Princess Wenxuan's attitude. She is not so easy to talk to. And that Princess Wuyang has been like the Ninth Prince since she was a child. She is a troublemaker, but the Emperor still dotes on her."

The old lady didn't think there was no way out. "Isn't Yao on good terms with her? Now that Shen has been dealt with, it's a good opportunity for you and Yao to get back on track. Since they came back, you haven't been to that courtyard, right?"

The old lady’s meaning was very clear, she was your woman, you had to sleep with her.

But Feng Jinyuan shook his head, "Leaving Shen in the nunnery is a last resort, but her position as mistress cannot be removed. After all, there is Feng Yu, and that is the real hope of the Feng family."

The old lady scolded him lightly - "You are so confused! Who asked you to give up the position of mistress of Shen's family? I just asked you to visit Yao's house more often. The Yao family has a deep foundation, and now that Ah Heng has confirmed the marriage with the Ninth Prince, you can no longer ignore them. Princess Wenxuan also wants Yao to vent her anger more."

Feng Jinyuan nodded helplessly, "Son, do your best."

The mother and son were chatting inside the house, but they didn't expect that Chenyu walked slowly under the window outside and heard everything clearly.

Shen will be kept in the temple forever. Although she is still the mistress in name and she is also the legitimate daughter, she does not live in the mansion after all. It is not right for her to be in the mansion. How can she, the eldest daughter, have face in front of outsiders in the future?

Chenyu looked pale and staggered back to her yard. After thinking about it again, she turned in another direction and went to look for Feng Zihao.

After all, this concerns their mother, and when she is upset, her brother always has to make decisions.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the door of Feng Zihao's house, she was stopped by the servant he brought with him - "Miss, you can't go in."

Feng Chenyu raised her eyebrows: "Why? I have something urgent to discuss with my brother."

The servant still shook his head, "Even if it's urgent, it's really not convenient for the young lady to go in now."

Feng Chenyu was furious and pushed the servant away fiercely - "Get out of the way!"

The servant didn't expect that the usually delicate young lady would have such a bad temper. He was pushed to the side, but Feng Chenyu had already entered the house.

The people inside never expected that someone would force their way in. They heard Feng Zihao yell in great dissatisfaction: "Get out!"

Feng Chenyu saw at a glance that Feng Zihao on the couch was hugging a little nun tightly. Regardless of the little nun's tearful struggle, his hands were dishonestly moving her up and down.

She stood there in a daze, tears welling up in her eyes due to anger.

Why did God give her such a brother and mother? They said she was destined to be a phoenix, and that she would be the mother of the country. But on what basis did she become the mother of the country? Just because of her face? Just because her father was the prime minister?

But she also has a mother and brother who are not presentable. With these two people around, how difficult would it be for her to be the mother of the country?

"Shen, Shen Yu..." Feng Zihao didn't expect that it was his fairy sister. He was embarrassed for a moment. He wanted to let go of the little nun but was reluctant. "Why are you here?"

The little nun looked at Chenyu for help, but Feng Chenyu didn't care about anyone else. Looking at Feng Zihao, she felt more and more desperate. She just said, "Feng Zihao, how could I have a brother like you?" and turned and left.

The maid Yiyue followed closely behind Chenyu and glared at Feng Zihao fiercely. She clenched her fists tightly in her sleeves, bit her lower lip with her upper teeth, and felt depressed.

Yiyue is sixteen this year, two years older than Chenyu, but no one knows that she became the concubine of the eldest master Feng Zihao when she was twelve years old. Feng Zihao had not left the house to study at that time. He was a famous playboy in the capital and he favored young girls. Yiyue really dreamed of being a young mistress for a while, but she didn't expect that after so many years, Feng Zihao took maids into his room one after another. If she hadn't been serving Chenyu all the time, Feng Zihao would have almost forgotten her name.

The master and servant each had their own thoughts and spent the whole afternoon in silence. After dinner, Feng Chenyu called Yiyue and went to the kitchen to make a bowl of vegetarian soup for Shen, which she brought over personally.

Shen's legs and face were covered with wounds, and her upper body was also covered with wounds from Xuan Tianming's whipping. She was curled up on the couch and didn't want to move. The three maids of Yu Mantang took turns watching her in the room, fearing that she would suddenly get excited and rush outside to cause trouble.

When Chenyu arrived, Shen was scolding Manxi for pouring too much hot water, and kept shouting: "No matter what, I am still the mistress of the Feng family. You little bitches, don't think that I have lost my power just because I don't care about the household affairs. Humph! How many years can the old lady live? I will outlive her! Sooner or later, the household affairs of the Feng family will return to my hands."

If Shen had said this in the past, Chenyu could have persuaded her not to get angry, but now she had no such thoughts at all. She just felt that the scar on Shen's face was particularly ugly and disgusting. And this fat body reminded her of the day when Princess Wuyang called Shen a pig.

She now also thinks that Shen is a pig, and a brainless pig at that.

With such a mother and brother around, what future can she talk about? She still dreams of being the mother of the country!

"Oh, Chenyu!" As Shen was talking, she saw Chenyu coming in with a bowl of vegetarian soup. She was so happy that her eyes blossomed. "Chenyu, come quickly! Mother is thinking about you."

Feng Chenyu suppressed her unhappiness, took two quick steps towards Shen, and said, "I saw that mother didn't eat much for dinner, so I personally cooked a bowl of vegetarian soup and brought it to you to taste."

Manxi wanted to serve the soup, but Shen didn't let her. She excitedly served the soup herself. "My daughter made the soup for me. I'll take it myself."

Chenyu's heart twitched.

"My Chenyu is always obedient." Shen picked up the soup spoon and muttered, "Since she was little, Chenyu has been the most obedient. I remember when you were little, you were sick once and I was so anxious. At that time, your father was not yet the prime minister, and there was no doctor in the family. I was not the mistress either, so I didn't have the power to send servants out of the house to invite a doctor in the middle of the night. I had to kneel in Yao's yard and beg your father to come out to see you."

As Shen spoke, she scooped a spoonful of soup and brought it to her mouth with a smile... [End of this chapter]
