The next day, Feng Fendai moved, and the fifth prince Xuan Tianyan came to pick her up early in the morning. When he saw Fendai leading a child and looked at the child's appearance, he knew what was going on. He said to Fendai, "Since you have brought him back, take good care of him. After all, he is your brother, and at least he can comfort you by staying with you."
Fendai said lightly: "I know, if even this doesn't work, then what's the point of bringing him back?" This was her usual way of speaking. Xuan Tianyan had long been accustomed to being scolded. Ever since the high and mighty prince recognized Feng Fendai, his face in front of her became less and less. He didn't know when he knew a principle of getting along with Feng Fendai: value people, not face; value face, not people.
Looking at Fendai again, she said so coldly, but she still held the child tightly, and took the initiative to bend down to help the child lift the corner of his robe when crossing the threshold, for fear that he would trip. Xuan Tianyan knew that no matter how Fendai treated him, she was always sincere to this child.
It's good to be sincere. He was afraid that this girl would lose her sincerity to everyone and everything, and eventually go down a path of no return, and he couldn't pull her back. If there was a younger brother around her, maybe her heart would be softened slowly, and she would change a little bit.
After leaving the Feng Mansion and loading all the things into the car, Feng Fendai looked back at the plaque on the door of the mansion, and her heart suddenly tightened and a pain surged. "Take down the plaque and smash it!" She said to He Zhong, "From now on, there will be no Feng Mansion in the capital."
Following Feng Fendai's words, the Feng Mansion completely disappeared from the capital.
The new courtyard is not far from Prince Li's Palace, at the end of the alley across the street behind Prince Li's Palace. It is an extremely exquisite place. Xuan Tianyan never told Feng Fendai that he bought this courtyard for that person and decorated it himself. He fantasized that one day he could take that person out of the palace and send him here. Unfortunately, fantasies are just fantasies after all. When Feng Fendai proposed to move, he thought of this place first.
This villa is not big, with only two entrances, but it is somewhat similar to Feng Yuheng's princess residence. The layout inside is all in the Jiangnan style, with small bridges and flowing water. Even in winter, it looks lively and interesting.
Fendai liked this place right away. She asked her brother, "Xiaobao, do you think this place is good?"
The child nodded: "Okay, Xiaobao likes this place."
Fendai was very happy and tilted her head to say to Xuan Tianyan: "Listen, Xiaobao said he likes it. You did a great job on this matter."
Xuan Tianyan smiled and replied: "As long as you like it, it won't be a waste of my time."
When Fendai heard this, she felt proud that Xuan Tianyan had specially arranged this courtyard for her. However, she did not know that Xuan Tianyan saw the shadow of that person in her. It was as if that woman had entered this courtyard and was turning around, turning back and saying to him from time to time: "Yan, this place is so beautiful, I really like it." This was the scene he had dreamed of for many years, but unfortunately, it could not come true. Today, Fendai had a rare dream. Xuan Tianyan thought, let this girl be willful! Just treat it as that person, and it can fill his heart in just a moment.
Fendai brought a small number of servants with her, including the housekeeper He Zhong, a doorman, four maids who cleaned the house, her attendant Dong Ying, and two servants from her own courtyard. In addition, there were two maids hired for Xiao Bao. Xuan Tianyan felt that it was a bit shabby, so he asked, "Do you want to send more people?"
Fendai shook her head, but she told him her own idea: "If you really want to, give me two secret guards who can completely listen to me, instead of the kind that they will ask you for your opinion first when I give an order." The reason why Tai said this was because Xuan Tianyan had given her a secret guard at Fendai's request before, but although the secret guard followed Fendai, Xuan Tianyan was worried about the girl's willful behavior, so the secret guard still recognized him as the master. No matter what big or small things happened in the Feng Mansion, no matter what Feng Fendai asked them to do, the secret guard had to report to Xuan Tianyan first. After Feng Fendai found out about this, she returned the two secret guards to Xuan Tianyan the next day.
When this request was brought up again today, Xuantian did not try to persuade her like he did in the past. Instead, he readily agreed and promised to deliver it later. He even repeatedly assured Fendai, "Don't worry, I won't reject your wishes this time. The secret guards gave it to you, and from now on you are their master. Even if you ask them to come and kill me with a knife, they have to do it."
Feng Fendai snorted, "Why would I kill you?" She said so, but she was proud in her heart. She had always coveted the loyal secret guards following Feng Yuheng. In the capital, secret guards were not very unusual, but they were not something that ordinary ladies could have. The nobles would raise them, just like Feng Jinyuan did in the past, but it would also take a lot of effort and cost a lot. In addition, the princes and grandchildren had secret guards around them to show their status, and their secret guards were all trained by themselves, not like Feng Jinyuan did at the beginning, who had to hire them from the Jianghu organizations.
Now, she also has her own secret guards, which makes her feel that the distance between her and Feng Yuheng has shortened. It is no longer like before, one in the sky and the other in the ground.
Xuan Tianyan helped her with the arrangements for the whole morning, and they had lunch together at noon, and then returned to Prince Li's Mansion. When he left, he saw Fendai standing under the wintersweet tree in the yard to see him off, and gently tugged at the corner of his clothes to help him smooth out the wrinkles. The feeling that "Fendai is the one" came over him again. He was moved, raised his hand to hold Fendai's head, gently pulled her into his arms, and gave her a soft kiss on the forehead.
Fendai was a little girl after all, and her cheeks were burning from the kiss. By the time she realized what was happening, Xuan Tianyan had already walked out of her courtyard. Dongying said enviously, "The Fifth Prince treats Miss so well."
Feng Fendai was a little embarrassed. No matter what, he was a prince. The sons of the Xuan family were all handsome. Although the Fifth Prince's appearance was not as outstanding as Xuan Tianming and Xuan Tianhua, it was still incomparable to ordinary people. Feng Fendai was proud to be cared for by such a person. The other party's appearance and identity were enough to support her pride. It was a pity that this girl never knew how to be content. She wanted too much and wanted to catch up with too many people. The little flame that was suppressed as a concubine in the Feng Mansion had begun to burn.
In the Prince Yu's Mansion, Huang Quan handed an invitation to Feng Yuheng, "It's from the palace. Concubine Li is going to hold a small palace banquet in Changning Palace. Miss, please attend the banquet in three days!" Huang Quan didn't like Concubine Li very much. She even advised Feng Yuheng: "Miss, don't go. Just send the banknotes. There is no need to give her that face." When talking about banknotes, Huang Quan felt a little painful: "Miss, one million taels! Is it necessary to send so much?"
Feng Yuheng didn't think so. She said, "One million taels is not a lot. If she hadn't said that and hadn't thought that way, I would have planned to send five million taels. And this note, Huang Quan, you have to know that since the note can be sent to Prince Yu's Mansion, it can naturally be sent to Prince Jing's Mansion and Prince Yuan's Mansion. After all, she is a concubine who gave birth to a prince. For the sake of the Sixth Prince, the women in the families of the eldest and second brothers have to go to the palace to show their faces. Besides, I still say that, if not for others, then for Sixth Brother, this trip must be made."
Huang Quan actually understood this truth, but he felt uncomfortable in his heart, and said unhappily: "Concubine Li's thoughts are really disgusting!"
"What did Concubine Li do to disgust you?" Suddenly, the doorman was pushed open from outside, and Xuan Tianming strode in with a sudden burst of cool air. "It's really cold outside today."
After the beginning of winter, the weather was getting colder day by day. Feng Yuheng quickly stood up and stepped forward to help him take off the cloak behind him, and said at the same time: "You have good ears, you have to listen to me when I chat with the girl. Your Highness, are you annoying?"
Huang Quan smiled softly and quickly left the room. As early as the day they moved to Prince Yu's Mansion, Huang Quan Wang Chuan had already understood the truth that "as long as His Highness is in the room, they must definitely avoid him." If they were to leave a step later, their lives would be in danger!
Xuan Tianming pinched Feng Yuheng's little nose and looked at him carefully, staring at him until Feng Yuheng was about to explode, and then he said: "My wife is indeed a symbol, no wonder so many people are thinking about her."
"Get lost!" She knocked Xuan Tianming's claws away. "What nonsense are you talking about? If there are really so many people who care about you, how could it be your turn?"
“Why is it not their turn?” Xuan Tianming decided to speak with facts. “They are concerned about it, but none of them were concerned about it as early as I was. Even if we talk about first come first served, it is not their turn.”
Feng Yuheng felt that someone's face had become thicker and thicker, but when she thought about it again, when would this person want to save face? He had always been a person who could argue even when he was unreasonable, and it was not the first time she had known him. So she decided not to argue with him about this, and just handed him the invitation sent from the palace, and then said, "You still have to go. I think the women from the eldest and second brothers' families should also attend. I took the initiative to prepare a million taels of silver notes, and it's just right to tell you today."
Xuan Tianming raised his eyebrows: "Is my wife reporting to me?"
She nodded: "We are married now, so naturally all the property is shared. One million taels is not a small amount, so I have to tell you about it." Although she said so, in fact, the money was placed in the space by her and had nothing to do with Prince Yu's Palace at all.
Xuan Tianming knew this, so he said, "Since you said so, you can't pay for the money by yourself. It has to come from the account of Prince Yu's Mansion." He agreed with his own proposal very much. As he spoke, he put his arm around the young lady's shoulders and led her to the inner room step by step. In order to conceal his tracks, he also extended the topic: "Sixth brother is helping you in Ji'an County. He will definitely not accept the money you give him. It's better to give it to his mother, which can be regarded as a favor."
Feng Yuheng nodded: "You are right. However, considering that Concubine Li is not in the right state of mind, we should not use the money from Prince Yu's Palace. The one million taels were stolen from Prince Sheng's Palace. The Eighth Prince and Concubine Li are relatives. If you think about it this way, the wool comes from the sheep, and you will feel more balanced."
"My wife is right." As they were talking, the two of them had already walked to the bed. Seeing the beauty beside him still frowning and thinking about something, someone raised his lips - Come on! Attack by surprise, he is very knowledgeable about tactics!
