Fu Junheng remained silent and did not respond to his words. He lowered his gaze, turned and walked to the main seat, where he sat down. "What do you want to say to me?"
Seeing that he did not answer, Feng Ji did not press him. He walked forward and sat down next to the man, saying, "Shen Nanzhi has already begun to reorganize the Libei Army. You must know very well his talent and ability as a general. In less than three months, the Libei Army will surely be a mighty army again."
It was precisely because Shen Nanzhi was busy with military affairs, and on the other hand, he wanted to keep himself completely busy so that he could temporarily forget about Mu Chenshuang and Fu Junheng.
"However, I did discover something."
"What's up?"
"There are also people secretly spying on Shen Nanzhi's movements. Cheng Hui, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, is a regular at Wan Yue Lou. However, not long ago, he spent a lot of money to redeem a dancer named Hong Luo from Wan Yue Lake and make her his concubine. Cheng Hui dotes on this concubine to the extreme."
Fu Junheng's handsome face was deep and thoughtful as he parted his thin lips slightly, "So, this Wan Yue Lou really is a place where hidden talents reside."
Feng Ji picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and sighed, "Yes, it wasn't just the Vice Minister of War who redeemed a young lady from the Red Moon Pavilion."
Having said that, he put down his teacup, took an envelope from his sleeve, and handed it to Fu Junheng. "Take a look!"
Fu Junheng reached out and took it, opened it and read, "You've been planning this for a long time, it seems you didn't notice before?"
"Who would care much about a prince who is not valued and has no power or influence in the palace? But now it seems that he is already ambitious and probably has hidden influence in the court. Yesterday, the Prince of Cheng put the Crown Prince in a difficult position in front of the Emperor, which led to the Minister of Works, who is on the Crown Prince's side, being held accountable. Let's see if the Crown Prince can protect the Minister of Works."
"So, in your opinion, it's truly Feng Yunqi's skill that surpasses Feng Xilan's?" Fu Junheng countered.
"This is the place I'm having investigated. Feng Yunqi certainly doesn't have the ability to find evidence to bring down the Minister of Works. We'll see who's guiding him from behind. We should have results soon."
Fu Junheng raised his eyes, his deep, dark golden pupils gazing out the door, his expression calm and composed, and said, "The world is truly changing rapidly."
"However, there is one more thing, concerning Princess Weiyang."
Upon hearing this, Fu Junheng's expression instantly turned serious. He withdrew his gaze and looked at Feng Ji, asking, "What is it?"
Feng Ji replied, "I overheard that the Empress Dowager is preparing to discuss the marriage of Princess Weiyang with Marquis Mu after he returns to the capital."
The affair between Mu Chenshuang and Fu Junheng had already caused quite a stir in the palace, and the Empress Dowager was naturally aware of it long ago. The Empress Dowager knew the implications of Mu Chenshuang's marriage to Xiyue Kingdom, and that she was not the most suitable candidate, or even a terrible one.
Instantly.
Fu Junheng's face was covered with a layer of frost.
Feng Ji looked at him and continued, "Based on my understanding of Lord Mu, if he knew about your current relationship with Mu Chenshuang and Jun Heng, he would definitely oppose it vehemently. Now that Lord Mu is about to return to the capital, let's see what you plan to do?"
In this matter, he couldn't make the choice for him; it all depended on what Junheng thought and what he wanted to do.
After a while.
Fu Junheng asked coldly, "If the Empress Dowager wanted to choose a suitable match for her, who do you think she would choose?"
"I have no way of guessing that; we'll only know in the future."
So Junheng is planning to just give the other party up and settle things first?
But that's exactly what he would do.
"But one thing I'm quite certain of is that Princess Weiyang will not let herself be manipulated. The only person who can solve this problem is Princess Weiyang herself, so it depends on how much determination you can give her, Junheng."
He could tell that Mu Chenshuang did indeed have romantic feelings for Jun Heng, and loved him, but she didn't give him all her love. She held back, even most of it. She didn't completely trust Jun Heng; in fact, she was wary of him.
He greatly admired Mu Chenshuang's ability to maintain such emotional rationality in front of Junheng. The current Mu Chenshuang was by no means a woman who only talked about love; he even felt that she was more rational and clear-headed than Junheng.
