Chapter Seventy-One: Small Interactions
Xiao Yan saw Feng Yu snickering, and felt a little annoyed and helpless.
"By the way, what are you doing standing here?" Feng Yi asked suddenly, he looked at Feng Yu who lowered his head and snickered, and then looked at Xiao Yan who looked sad, revealing a puzzled look.
"It's okay, let's go, let's go inside." Xiao Yan shook his head, then pretended to be fine, and led them to the front yard hall.
The three of them sat down in the hall, and after the servants took tea and snacks, they retreated, and Feng Yi told Feng Yu and Xiao Yan about what happened after he returned to Beijing.
It turned out that Fenglin was famous in the capital during this time, and he often drank and chatted with the children of the official family, or hunted in the suburbs with his son, or played the piano and music with other rich women every day, which was poetic and picturesque.
Feng Yu and Xiao Yan were a little shocked when they heard this, because no matter what, Feng Lin is a child of the royal family, and every move of the people in the royal family represents the face of the royal family, and such a style is really a bit shameful for the royal family.
So it's no wonder that Fenglin was drunk on the street that day, which made the emperor so angry, and he was still confined to the palace until now.
After listening to Feng Yi's narration, Feng Yu said: "The reason why Feng Lin can act so unscrupulously in the capital is probably because he has already decided that he will definitely be able to become the prince. ”
"And he can be so confident, I'm afraid it's mostly because of Concubine Hui's relationship."
Feng Yi frowned slightly, and said suspiciously: "Even if the father loves Hui Guifei, how can this Hui Guifei be sure that his father will give the crown prince to Fenglin?" ”
"It's easy." Feng Yu chuckled lightly and said: "The only candidates for the position of the crown prince are the imperial brother and Feng Lin, if you want Feng Lin to become the crown prince and have no worries, you only need to eradicate the only opponent." ”
Hearing this, Feng Yi narrowed his eyes, "So ......"
"So you were assassinated in Jiangnan, I think it should have been arranged by Concubine Hui." Xiao Yan picked up his words, then looked at him and said: "In Jiangnan, there are not many people who know your true identity, and besides, you have always been safe and sound, but after the emperor summoned you back to Beijing, you were assassinated." ”
"And the assassins have wanted your life several times, it can't be so coincidental."
Feng Yi's face became a little heavy, in fact, he had thought about this at the beginning, but he felt that Hui Guifei would not be so cruel to him, but now it seems that this assassination was done by Hui Guifei.
"It's a pity that we don't have evidence now." Feng Yu sighed, "I can only continue to investigate." ”
Seeing Feng Yu worried, Xiao Yan comforted softly: "Don't worry, I've already asked people to check that token, I believe it won't be long before there will be news." ”
Feng Yu nodded, then looked at Feng Yi and said, "It's about the position of the crown prince, and Concubine Hui will not let it go." If Jiang Nan's assassination fails, she will definitely use other tricks to deal with the imperial brother, so the imperial brother, you must be cautious in everything in the future. ”
Feng Yi touched her head with a smile and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, the imperial brother will definitely be careful in everything." ”
Then the three of them discussed the issue of Fenglin for a while, and when it was lunch time, Xiao Yan entertained the two Fengyu brothers and sisters for dinner.
Feng Yi and Xiao Yan can be regarded as growing up together, and Feng Yu and Xiao Yan have always been together during this time, so the three of them are already familiar with each other, and there is not so much red tape when eating.
"Kira, this is your favorite fish." Feng Yi added a piece of fish and put it in Feng Yu's bowl, looked at her somewhat emaciated face, and said distressedly: "Jiangnan trip, you have lost a lot of weight recently, eat more to make up." ”
"Thank you, Brother Huang."
Feng Yu lowered her head and ate the fish seriously, not noticing Xiao Yan's gaze at her, and the fish next to her that he had picked the bones for her.
After eating for a while, Feng Yu got up and served them soup, and said while serving: "You two also have to hurry up and make up for it, I was tired along the way, and I didn't get hurt." ”
"You are all people who have lost half your life, and now that Concubine Hui has not started to be a demon, you have to quickly take care of your body."
Feng Yu put the soup in front of Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan's eyes changed, and after Feng Yu sat down, she secretly pulled her hand on her knee from under the table.
When she was just touched, Feng Yu reflexively retracted her hand, but was held tightly by Xiao Yan.
When she realized that it was Xiao Yan, Feng Yu turned her head to look at him, and when she saw him looking at herself with ambiguous eyes and whispering 'thank you princess', she was so shy that she quickly turned her head back.
Just when Xiao Yan was secretly happy in his heart, Feng Yu pinched him with his backhand, Xiao Yan only felt a sudden pain in his hand, and the pain made the corners of his mouth twitch.
"Xiao Yan, what's wrong with you?" Feng Yi, who was sitting opposite, saw that something was wrong with Xiao Yan, and hurriedly asked, "Is it unwell?" Do you want me to ask the imperial doctor to come and see you? ”
Xiao Yan took a light breath, looked up at him, and smiled reluctantly: "No, don't bother." ”
"How can this be called trouble?" Feng Yi looked at him with a serious face and said, "Let's not talk about the relationship between you and me, in the final analysis, you are also injured because of my brother and sister, so we naturally can't sit idly by." ”
Feng Yu next to her lowered her head and snickered, Xiao Yan glanced at her, and then said to Feng Yi: "I really don't need it, my injury has healed." ”
"Really?" Feng Yi was a little unconvinced, "But just now I saw that your face was weird, and it seemed that you were uncomfortable." ”
Sighing helplessly in his heart, Xiao Yan explained: "I just choked on dinner." ”
'Poof......'
A chuckle sounded, Feng Yi turned his head to look at Feng Yu, and said with a strange expression: "Qiluo, what are you laughing at?" ”
Feng Yu pursed her lips, tried her best to hold back the smile in her heart, then looked up at Feng Yi and shook her head seriously, "Brother Huang, I didn't laugh." ”
Feng Yi looked at her in disbelief, and when he saw that she looked normal, he looked at Xiao Yan who was looking at Feng Yu with a smile on his face, and finally shook his head helplessly, and then continued to eat.
Glancing at Feng Yi, who was eating seriously, Xiao Yan approached Feng Yu and whispered, "I didn't expect the princess to be so ruthless." ”
Feng Yu glanced at him, and also whispered, "Who let you bully me?" ”
Xiao Yan looked at her dotingly and shook his head, then put the plate in front of her and said softly, "Eating more fish will be more beautiful." ”
With a soft snort, Xiao Yan added an extra piece of chicken to his bowl.
And Feng Yi, who was sitting opposite, was thinking about the previous assassination, so he didn't notice the interaction between the two at all.
After eating, Feng Yu and Feng Yi went back to the palace, and the two went back to their respective bedrooms.
"Auntie, why are you here?"
Yuwen looked at Fengyu with a happy face, and said with a smile: "I heard that you have returned to the palace, so I came to see you." ”
Seeing Yuwen Yuan's round belly, Fengyu was very happy and hurriedly pulled her to sit down.
"My aunt is now a pregnant person, so she has to be careful in everything, and she can't go far away." Feng Yu touched Yuwen Yuan's stomach and said: "If my aunt misses me in the future, I will send someone to the palace, and I will go out of the palace to visit my aunt, and I will save my aunt from being tired and running this trip." ”
Yuwen Yuan shook her head with a smile and said, "It's okay, although I am pregnant, but Mr. Yue said that proper movement is good for the child and me, as long as you pay attention not to bump into it." ”
"Be careful, this is my first nephew." Fengyu gently touched Yuwen Yuan's belly again, and then said to Qin'er: "You go and order fruit, I heard that pregnant women eat more fruits, and the child will grow beautiful." ”
"Yes, Princess."
After Qin'er left the house, Fengyu and Yuwen Yuan chatted, and after chatting for a while, Yuwen Yuan suddenly said with a serious face: "Qiluo, you may not know when you just came back, a lot of things happened in Beijing during the time you were not in the capital. ”
"I know, Fenglin thinks he can be the crown prince, so he is arrogant and domineering in Beijing, right?" Feng Yu said disapprerovantly, "Auntie, don't worry, you won't let him be proud for too long." ”
"No, I'm talking about Li Chengdong." Yuwen Yuan shook her head and said.
"Li Chengdong?" Feng Yu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”
Yuwen frowned slightly, and said with a somewhat serious expression: "Since you and General Xiao left the capital, I don't know what method Li Chengdong used to be promoted all the way, and now he is a fifth-grade official." ”
"Five products?!"
I have to say that Feng Yu was surprised by this news, when she and Xiao Yan partnered to make Li Chengdong restricted everywhere, and made Feng Lin regard him as an enemy.
I really didn't expect that he would be able to climb to the Wupin official while they were away, and it seemed that she was underestimating him.
Yuwen Yuan looked at Feng Yu and sighed, and said, "Qiluo, I don't know much about the affairs of the court, and I don't know much about this matter. ”
"But your brother-in-law said that Li Chengdong's reputation among the people is not good, and his ability is only average, but he can sit in the fifth-rank official position in such a short period of time, which shows that this person has clever means."
"He said that you have a grudge against Li Chengdong, and you will meet in the future, but you should be careful."
Lu Ziwen's analysis is exactly what Feng Yu thinks in her heart, so what kind of character Li Chengdong is, she knows very well in her heart. Now that he can become a five-grade official in a short period of time, there must be someone behind him, as for who this person is, Feng Yu also has an object of suspicion in her heart.
"Auntie, I want you to do me a favor."
Yuwen Yuan almost didn't hesitate, nodded and said, "Well, you can say it." ”
"After you leave the palace, go to the General's Mansion, tell Xiao Yan about this matter, and ask him to find out what's going on?"
Feng Yu knew very well in her heart that now only Xiao Yan had the ability to help her, and the person who supported Li Chengdong was most likely the vassal king.
And she has no ability to fight against the vassal king now, and the only way is to join forces with Xiao Yan to eradicate this scourge.
"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely tell General Xiao about this."
Then Yuwen Yuan stayed with Fengyu for a while, then left the palace, and after leaving the palace, she went to the General's Mansion and told Xiao Yan about Li Chengdong's promotion, and by the way, she also conveyed Fengyu's meaning to him.
Subsequently, Xiao Yan sent someone to send Yuwen Mandarin back home.
