636 Eye Drops, Everyone is an Expert
Outside is not a place to talk, but after returning home it is always a place to talk. Tong Jue and Tong Yao thought that Feng Qingchen would ask them about the information they had found as soon as she returned to the yard, but Feng Qingchen was not in a hurry. She asked someone to prepare hot water because she wanted to take a bath and have a meal.
She had to keep her spirits up and eat a full meal so that she would have the strength to face what was to come, and to face the truth that had been sealed away. She had already found out, and no matter how anxious she was, she would not be in such a hurry at this moment.
Fortunately, Chun Hui, Qiu Hua and the other three people knew Feng Qingchen's habits very well. They knew that Feng Qingchen must take a shower first after coming out of the operating room. Chun Hui and Qiu Hua had already ordered people to prepare hot water and kept it boiling. As soon as Feng Qingchen came out, there would be ready-made hot water available.
Soaking in the hot water, Feng Qingchen tried his best to relax his body and closed his eyes to hide the faint sadness and uneasiness in his eyes.
It was not a good sign that she found what she wanted so quickly. It meant that this matter was far more complicated than she had expected, and there were more people involved than she had imagined.
Someone was trying to capitalize on this, on her parents' death.
When Feng Qingchen thought of this possibility, her heart was filled with bitterness. Those people were unwilling to let go of even two dead people. Couldn't they put themselves in her shoes and think about how sad she would be as a child?
No matter who she is, in her heart, Father Feng and Mother Feng are her parents, and she only has two of them. In her previous life, one of them was abandoned by her and the other did not recognize her parents, so they are not worthy of being called her parents.
She placed all her longing for her parents on them. In her mind, she still had the image of her father Feng holding her in his arms when she was a child. His warm hands patted her little head and said, "My Xiaochen is the most beautiful girl in the Jiuzhou Continent. When my Xiaochen grows up, father will choose the best man in the world for you to take over father's place and continue to spoil my baby Xiaochen."
That was the parental love that she had long admired, that was the family love that she had always dreamed of having, but it was destroyed by someone.
Plop... A tear slid down the corner of Feng Qingchen's eye and into the bath.
There are some things she can avoid because they are troublesome, but there are some things she has to face head on even though she knows they are troublesome.
Everyone has some taboos that cannot be touched. For Feng Qingchen, her relatives are her taboos. Her dead parents are undoubtedly her closest people. If anyone dares to hurt her relatives, she will take revenge a hundredfold. Ye Ye insulted her parents' corpses, which undoubtedly touched her taboo.
Splash... Feng Qingchen stood up from the bath, water droplets slid down her skin, and Feng Qingchen walked out barefoot.
Feng Qingchen is not a big shot. If it weren't for the fact that the Ninth Prince looked at her differently, the emperor would not have even thought of her existence. For someone like Feng Qingchen, the emperor would definitely let her fend for herself.
After the emperor finished reviewing the memorials, he suddenly remembered that Feng Qingchen had moved back to the Feng Mansion a few days ago. When he heard that Feng Qingchen wanted to treat the illness of the noble young master of the Cui family, he asked anxiously.
"Where is Feng Qingchen? Has she done anything recently?" The emperor really didn't take Feng Qingchen seriously. What could a woman like Feng Qingchen do? Just some petty fights.
All Feng Qingchen can do now is to prop up the shaky sign of the Ninth Prince. Once he kills the Ninth Prince, Feng Qingchen will be nothing. Now... let her jump around.
"In reply to the emperor, on the day Feng Qingchen came to visit, the daughter of the Rong family caused a big disturbance in the Feng family. Now the saying "I am Hua Niang Qingcheng" is circulating in the streets and alleys. However, Miss Feng did not care. She sent the daughter of the Rong family to Shuntian Mansion. Immediately, someone spread the word that they would take good care of her. Shuntian Mansion was preparing to send the daughter of the Rong family to the military camp."
The chief eunuch knew what the emperor wanted to hear, so he would pick out the most unfortunate thing about Feng Qingchen and tell it to him, which would surely make the emperor happy. Once the emperor was happy, everything else would be easy.
"The daughter of the Rong family? Who brought her out?" The emperor asked with interest. Although Feng Qingchen handled the matter in time, Feng Qingchen's reputation was also damaged. It was not a great trick, but it was very practical for women.
"It's Her Royal Highness Princess Anping." The eunuch lowered his head. It was precisely because this matter involved Princess Anping that he specifically mentioned it to let the emperor know. It was better than finding out after something happened later.
"Anping? She is going to marry to Beiling in the spring, and she is still restless." The emperor raised his eyebrows when he heard it.
The emperor still felt bad about marrying his beloved daughter off to Beiling, so...
"Go back to my treasury and pick something for Anping so that she can get married with peace of mind." The emperor had no intention of punishing Anping, but comforted her instead.
Your Majesty, Anping is so angry that she has no place to vent it. It was the Ninth Prince who arranged for her to marry into Beiling, but Anping cannot seek revenge from the Ninth Prince, so she can only look for Feng Qingchen.
"Yes. Your Majesty, besides this matter, there is one more thing I don't know whether I should say or not." The eunuch touched the silver bills in his purse, thinking that the Lord of Ye City was really generous. For the sake of the silver bills, he had to ask the other party to say a few good words.
"Anything else? Didn't the prince go there on the day Feng Qingchen came to visit? With the prince around, who else would dare to cause trouble?" The emperor was becoming more and more dissatisfied with the prince, but he had not found a good reason or a good target yet. Once the reason was sufficient, the emperor would not hesitate to depose the prince and appoint another one.
Under the dragon's might, the eunuch's legs softened and he knelt down. He carefully raised his head to check the emperor's face. After making sure that the emperor was not angry, he boldly said, "To answer your question, Your Majesty, that day, Yecheng Young Master Ye Ye carried two coffins into the Feng Mansion. It is said that they contained the remains of General Feng and Madam Feng. General Feng's remains were intact, but Madam Feng's remains were reduced to white bones. Only a jade pendant can prove that it was Madam Feng's remains."
"The bodies of Feng Zhan and Lu Yimo? Wasn't Feng Zhan's body trampled into mud by the war horses? Didn't Lu Yimo fall off a cliff and his body was completely gone? How could their bodies still be here?" The emperor slammed the table, angrily.
Well, they even dare to fool the emperor. These people don’t want to live anymore.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, please calm down." The eunuch did not dare to argue and kowtowed and begged for mercy.
My Emperor, if I don’t hide it from you these days, who else can I hide it from? Besides, if General Feng’s body is to be found, you would have left no trace of his remains in the past. It’s a good thing that it’s not found.
The emperor had indeed calmed down, but the appearance of Feng Zhan's body reminded him of the mistakes he had made in the past. No... the emperor would not make mistakes. It was others who made mistakes. He had killed all those who made mistakes and used them to bury Feng Zhan and the 30,000 men on the battlefield.
In a flash, the emperor calmed down and stood up and said, "It's a good thing that Ye Ye found the remains of Feng Qingchen's parents. Why? Did you cause any unpleasantness?"
The eunuch came forward very servilely, stood beside the emperor, and raised his hand so that the emperor could have someone to support him.
"Your Majesty, this is a good thing, but Feng Qingchen is a cunning person. She relies on the support of the Ninth Uncle and the eldest son, and she is very arrogant. When Young Master Ye sent his body to her door, Feng Qingchen not only didn't say a word of thanks, but also got furious and threatened Young Master Ye. She kicked him out, and other people who attended the banquet were also kicked out by her. And... yesterday she apologized everywhere in the heavy snow."
The chief eunuch's words were quite beautiful. He did not lie. He just skipped over some incidents and emphasized the key points. He learned all this from practicing in the palace.
"She is truly her true nature. This girl is young and ignorant, so it is inevitable that she acts a little arrogantly. Go back and tell City Lord Ye that I know about this." The emperor was in a good mood when he heard Feng Qingchen drive away the people attending the banquet.
This shows that it was a wrong decision for the Ninth Prince to hand over the overall situation outside to Feng Qingchen. Women are most likely to be emotional. Feng Qingchen would not think that it would be useful to drive people away and then apologize. How naive!
"Your Majesty is right. Miss Feng is straightforward and will inevitably offend people. Your Majesty, whose palace are you going to?" The eunuch touched the bag of pearls again, his face smiling like a flower.
He liked to have new female masters in the palace, because all women who entered the palace were smart.
"You old fellow, what's wrong? The money you earn from Yecheng is not enough, and you don't let go of the money of the masters in the harem? Tell me, how much money did Yecheng give you to make you work so hard, and which master in the harem gave you something?" The emperor knew what was going on when he heard it, and pointed it out immediately. From his tone, he didn't seem angry, which showed that the emperor tacitly approved of this kind of thing.
There are no clean people in this palace. The emperor is happy to see the concubines and princes fighting among themselves. If they don't fight, but just stick together, where is his dignity as the emperor?
The chief eunuch knew that the emperor was not angry, but he still put on a panicked look and said, "Your Majesty, you have wronged me. How dare I accept your master's things? I ignored all those masters who asked about your majesty and sent them all away."
The eunuch cried out that he was wronged. Under the emperor's all-seeing eyes, he lowered his head and said in fear: "Ahem... Your Majesty is wise, nothing can escape your eyes. In reply to your words, City Lord Ye gave me 10,000 taels of silver and asked me to tell you about what happened that day. Young Master Ye had good intentions but did something bad. He wanted to thank Miss Feng for saving his life, but Miss Feng was not only not grateful, but hated Young Master Ye instead.
City Lord Ye was not afraid that Miss Feng would bear a grudge against him. He was only worried that Your Majesty would be deceived by the villain and think that he was a person who did not know how to repay a favor. City Lord Ye did not dare to hide it from Your Majesty and reported the matter early.
A lot of people went to Feng Mansion that day, and many of them could prove that what City Lord Ye said was true. That day, Miss Feng not only drove Young Master Ye out, but also threatened to feed him to the snakes.
Young Master Ye remembered Miss Feng's life-saving grace and did not care about the disobedience and left. That day, Prince Xiling Lei and Prince Nanling Jinfan were both there, and the two masters praised the wine of Feng Mansion as delicious, better than the imperial wine of the palace. "
What is a master of medicine eyes? This is it. The best things in the world are in the palace, and only the emperor can enjoy the best things. The sentence "The wine of Feng Mansion is better than the imperial wine of the palace" is enough to make the emperor angry and feel embarrassed.
Killing without shedding blood is the best strategy.
