Chapter 44: The Crown Prince

Extraneous marriage?!

Feng Yu's words made Xiao Yan stunned on the spot, and after reacting, his expression suddenly became serious, he glanced at Feng Yu fixedly, and turned around and left without saying a word.

Fengyu, who was surprised by Xiao Yan's reaction, hurriedly stepped forward and spread out his hands to stop him, "Where are you going?" ”

"I'll go find the emperor." Xiao Yan said in a firm tone.

Feng Yu frowned and wondered, "What are you going to do with your father?" ”

"I'll go to the emperor and beg the emperor not to let the princess leave the northern capital." After finishing speaking, Xiao Yan bypassed Fengyu and walked out, as if he had made up his mind.

Seeing Xiao Yan doing this to herself, Feng Yu was very happy in her heart, and hurriedly ran over to hold his hand and said, "Don't go to your father." ”

"Why?" Xiao Yan looked at Feng Yu and saw that her expression was wrong, so she frowned slightly and said, "Isn't it a princess who wants to marry?" ”

"No, no, no." Feng Yu shook her head again and again, seeing that Xiao Yan's face was getting more and more ugly, she hurriedly said: "Because my father didn't want me to marry, I lied to you." ”

Xiao Yan was stunned, looking at her and still a little disbelieving: "What the princess said is true?" The emperor really didn't want to marry the princess? ”

"What I said is true." Feng Yu nodded hurriedly, and seeing that Xiao Yan was still hesitant, she said again: "You think, I am the only princess in the Northern Capital, my father has loved me since I was a child, how can I marry outside." ”

Xiao Yan thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it did make sense, so ...... Turning his head to look directly into Feng Yu's eyes, Xiao Yan asked, "Why did the princess lie to me?" ”

Forehead...... Feng Yu was speechless for a while, she couldn't say that she wanted to test his mind about herself, so she made this decision, right?

"That...... This is punishment. ”

"Punishment?" Xiao Yan looked at her suspiciously, "Punish for what?" ”

Feng Yu crossed her hands on her waist and said confidently: "Who let you trick me before, so this is your punishment." ”

After thinking about it for a moment, Xiao Yan shook his head, "I don't remember playing tricks on the princess. ”

"I already know the flowers you asked me to draw that time." Feng Yu raised her eyebrows and said: "That flower is called Hehuan flower, also known as husband and wife flower." ”

"And the bamboo leaf ring you gave me last time, my aunt said, there is a habit of men weaving grass rings to send their sweethearts."

Hearing what Feng Yu said, Xiao Yan showed a smile, Feng Yu saw him laughing, and naturally became angry in her heart, and said angrily: "You dare to tease me, so this is your punishment." ”

Xiao Yan didn't explain too much, just looked at her with a doting smile on her face, and said, "I will accept any punishment, as long as the princess is happy." ”

In the face of Xiao Yan's straightforward words, Feng Yu avoided his eyes a little unnaturally, put down the hand that was crossed at the waist, and coughed lightly to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere at this time.

"What, are you still practicing? If I don't practice, I'll go back first. ”

Seeing that she looked nervous, Xiao Yan lowered her head and smiled, and said, "If the princess is tired today, you can go back to the palace to rest first, and we will continue another day." ”

"Then, then I'm leaving, you don't have to send me." After Feng Yu finished speaking, she turned around and left the shooting range, Xiao Yan stood in place and looked at her back, the corners of her mouth rising slightly.

Back in the palace, Feng Yu was bored when she saw Concubine Hui. In order not to affect the good mood at the moment, Fengyu didn't see her and prepared to go back to her bedroom.

But who knew that this Hui Guifei was also cheap, Fengyu didn't trouble her, she took the initiative to bump into her.

"Yo, isn't this a princess?" Concubine Hui Guifei stepped forward with someone, blatantly looked at Feng Yu around, and then said with a smile: "Looking at the princess's happy appearance, isn't it that Fang Cai and the general had too much fun at the shooting range." ”

Feng Yu sneered, looked at her and mocked: "The noble concubine Niangniang knows the whereabouts of this princess well." ”

Concubine Hui lowered her head and played with her handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Doesn't the princess know? If you want to live in this palace, you have to be well-informed. ”

"Really? No wonder the concubine is so favored by her father, it turns out that ...... He knows his father's whereabouts well. Feng Yu sneered, and when she said the last sentence, her tone suddenly became sharp.

Hearing Fengyu's words, Concubine Hui suddenly said eagerly: "What is the princess talking nonsense, how can this palace know the emperor's whereabouts." ”

The most taboo thing in the palace is to inquire about the emperor's news, especially his whereabouts, because as long as the emperor has any accidents, the person who knows his whereabouts may be the one who plotted to kill the emperor.

Seeing Hui Guifei's nervous face, Feng Yu smiled disdainfully, looked at her and said, "Guifei Niangniang, do you remember what I said to Niangniang outside the imperial study that day?" ”

Seeing Concubine Hui looking at herself angrily, Feng Yu approached her and said in a cold tone: "I warn you for the last time, don't do anything crooked, otherwise it won't be as simple as making a fool of yourself when paying tribute to the emperor." ”

"It's you!" Hui Guifei gritted her teeth and said.

"Yes, that's me." Feng Yu nodded without hesitation. "I warned Niangniang before, but Niangniang didn't listen and dared to make up her mind on me."

"It's a pity, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, and the punishment will fall on the head of the mother herself."

Feng Yu's words were very straightforward, Hui Guifei understood at once, it seems that Feng Yu had long known that she had asked people to give her laxatives, but in the end, she was killed by her.

"Okay, that's it, I hope Niangniang will keep it in my heart, and I won't delay Niangniang to see my father." Feng Yu looked at Concubine Hui indifferently, then turned sideways and made way of the way, and said with a smile: "Please." ”

Although Concubine Hui was unwilling, she had no choice but to leave with someone angry.

When she arrived at the imperial study, Concubine Hui saw the emperor and was reprimanded by the emperor before she could say a word.

Saying that she lost face on the day of the emperor's memorial is even more disrespectful to the emperor.

Concubine Hui wanted to defend herself, but she was afraid that her harm to Fengyu would be exposed, so she could only admit her mistake aggrievedly.

But because of this incident, Concubine Hui Guifei saw the hostility from Feng Yu, if she couldn't eradicate Feng Yu, then her position in the palace would probably be lost in the future.

This kind of feeling of being threatened at all times, Concubine Hui really didn't want to continue, so she thought about it, and then found her important ministers in the court, planning to support Fenglin to ascend the throne and make him the crown prince of the northern capital.

The next morning, the important minister really put forward Fenglin's past deeds, and after greatly praising it, he proposed to the emperor that he was suitable for the position of prince.

And the other courtiers also echoed one by one, all wanting to support Fenglin to become the crown prince, only a few ministers did not help, including Xiao Yan.

The emperor did not give a direct answer to the proposal of the important ministers, but only said that he would consider it carefully and let the ministers not be anxious.

After going to the court, Xiao Yan was not in a hurry to leave the palace, but came to the harem to find Fengyu, and he had to tell her about it as soon as possible.

"What? Let Fenglin become the crown prince? Feng Yu looked at Xiao Yan in shock, saw him nodding, and hurriedly asked, "How did the father and emperor respond?" He wouldn't really say yes, would he? ”

Xiao Yan shook his head with a heavy face and said, "The emperor did not give a substantive answer. ”

Feng Yu instantly breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said, "That's good, that's good." ”

Compared with Feng Yu's relaxed face, Xiao Yan's face looked a little dignified, he looked at Feng Yu and said: "Many ministers in the court are supporting the second prince and want the emperor to make the second prince the crown prince." ”

"Judging from today's trend, it is estimated that it will not be long before they will put pressure on the emperor and force the emperor to appoint the second prince as the crown prince."

What the situation was in the court, Feng Yu didn't know, but she believed Xiao Yan.

"No, I have to write to the imperial brother and ask him to come back as soon as possible, and I must not let Fenglin become the crown prince."

After that, Feng Yu began to write a letter, at this time the eldest prince Feng Yi was in Jiangnan for the emperor's private visit, Feng Yu must persuade him to come back, otherwise if Feng Lin really became the prince, their fate is estimated to be hanging.

"I'll leave this letter to you." Fengyu handed the letter to Xiao Yan, and he was the only person she could trust now.

Xiao Yan put the letter away, hugged his fists and said, "Don't worry, princess, I will definitely send this letter to the eldest prince quickly." ”

"Thank you."

What happened in the court today soon spread throughout the palace, but the protagonist Fenglin was walking in the palace with an idle face.

"Hey, Second Highness, isn't that the princess and General Xiao?"

Feng Lin turned his head and saw Feng Yu and Xiao Yan walking towards the palace gate, he stood in place and watched for a while, only to see the two of them talking, and finally Xiao Yan walked out of the palace gate.

The little eunuch who was waiting for Fenglin was puzzled: "Shouldn't General Xiao leave the palace early?" How can you be with the princess? ”

"Don't you know? Recently, the princess and General Xiao have been in close contact, and I heard that they were outside the palace before, and the two of them were still playing together. ”

Feng Lin already had doubts about Feng Yu and Xiao Yan together, and hearing the conversation between the two eunuchs at this time aggravated his doubts.

"Mother concubine, the retainer just saw Feng Yu send Xiao Yan out of the palace, the two of them are mysterious, I don't know if they are plotting something?"

was suspicious of Feng Yu and Xiao Yan, Feng Lin hurried to find Concubine Hui, now that he is supported as the crown prince, he needs to be careful in everything.

"The two of them have really been in contact a lot lately." Concubine Hui nodded with a heavy face, and then said: "And the foreign minister has never interfered in the affairs of the harem, but that Xiao Yan has repeatedly helped Fengyu deal with the palace, it seems that the relationship between the two of them is not simple." ”

"What does the concubine think we should do next?" Feng Lin poured a cup of tea and handed it to Concubine Hui, saying, "That Feng Yu and Feng Yi have always had a very good relationship, and she is likely to help Feng Yi snatch the crown prince." ”

When Hui Guifei heard it, she felt that what Feng Lin said was very reasonable, and not to mention that Feng Yu and Feng Yi brothers and sisters have a good relationship, even if they have a bad relationship, according to the current situation, Feng Yu will not be able to make Feng Lin the prince.

"In order to avoid long dreams, we have to be the first to strike."

Feng Lin looked at her and whispered, "Mother Concubine means ......"

"Assassinate Feng Yi."
