Chapter 507 – The Feng Family’s Celebration (1/2)
The Feng Family’s Celebration
Feng Yu Heng fell into a deep sleep while looking forward to the great play that would be put on. When she woke up, it was already noon of the following day. Xuan Tian Ming had already returned from court, and the maidservant had already brought food into the bedchamber.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and was still unable to recover from the handsome face that suddenly came close. Reaching out her hand to pinch it then pressing the purple lotus, she drowsily said: “You really know how to grow a birthmark. Not only is the shape beautiful, but the color is also good. Its position is also so perfect. Really… I want to pluck it off of you!”
As she spoke, she made a decision and had already taken action.
Xuan Tian Ming was suddenly scratched by her and let out a shout while leaping back from the bed. He then hastily reached out and angrily stopped the person on the bed: “You really do want to push me down the road of having a ruined face!”
Feng Yu Heng finally woke up after being shaken like this. Rubbing her eyes, she let out a long sigh, “Fortunately, you ran quickly. Otherwise, without that purple lotus, there really would be nothing on your face to look at.”
Xuan Tian Ming was dejected. After all was said and done, this damn girl still only looked at his face.
Forget it, forget it, if she wanted to look at his face, she could. Looking at his face meant that she was looking at him. Thinking about it like this, it was not bad.
He comforted himself on one side and put his mask back on. He then helped Feng Yu Heng up to get cleaned up so that she could eat. After eating, he urged her to quickly change into a joyous pink dress. Only then did he bring her out of the palace.
Feng Yu Heng was puzzled, “What exactly are we going to do? Are we participating in a wedding?”
Xuan Tian Ming shook his hand. Only after the two got into the imperial carriage did he say: “We are participating in a celebratory banquet.”
“Whose wedding banquet?” She was puzzled, “Whose celebratory banquet is able to make you, the ninth prince, attend personally? And to even bring along your wife?” Who exactly had the stature to bring both of them out at the same time?
Xuan Tian Ming smiled but did not answer this question. Until the carriage stopped once more and a maidservant lifted the curtain, when she saw that they were in front of the Feng manor, her eyes finally lit up, “The good play that you were talking about last night was this?”
Today, the new Feng manor was very lively. There were many people that had come over with joyous expressions. On one side, they were congratulating Feng Jin Yuan, and on the other, people were registering the gifts that they had brought.
Feng Yu Heng looked at these people and found that they were a little familiar. After looking a little more closely, she found that they were the officials that interacted with Feng Jin Yuan the most when he was still the prime minister. Every since Feng Jin Yuan had been demoted, these people had not appeared in the Feng family for a long time. Who knew that these people would take the initiative to come and visit. The person that they were congratulating was nothing more than a person without rank or title that fed horses at the stable.
She tilted her head and asked Xuan Tian Ming: “They were all invited by you, right?”
Just as she said this, she looked over and a servant announced: “Prime minister lord Fung has arrived!”
Feng Yu Heng facepalmed, “Even uncle Fung has come. Xuan Tian Ming, what exactly are you planning? With so many people coming, does the Feng family have the money to receive all of them? They don’t even have the money for tea, right?”
Huang Quan rested the curtain of the carriage on the jade frame then looked back and said to her: “What does tea matter, they also need to handle the food! With so many people coming, the Feng family must conduct a banquet.”
Xuan Tian Ming nodded and said: “That’s right, this prince has told them that a son was just born into the Feng family. Even if you do not give Feng Jin Yuan face, you need to give face to this imperial daughter Ji An and this prince. Everyone should go and flatter them, and you cannot go empty-handed. A gift must be prepared. With the gifts being brought, how can the Feng family not even provide a meal?”
Feng Yu Heng sat in the imperial carriage with one leg crossed over the other. After hearing this, she seemed to have understood. It seemed that these people had come to give face to the two?
Xuan Tian Ming nodded.
She blinked and suddenly recalled a matter, anxiously asking: “I fear that this banquet will not be very good. There will most likely be fighting over food. You set up a trap for Feng Jin Yuan, right?”
Before Xuan Tian Ming could reply, an imperial carriage pulled up in front of the Feng manor’s entrance. Although imperial carriages were different from normal carriages, the newly arrived one was much worse than the one Xuan Tian Ming had. Not only was it much smaller, but the material used in its construction also could not even be compared. It was not shabby, but it was a bit conservative. Looking at it… Feng Yu Heng thought about it, this was the difference between America and North Korea!
A person came out of the small imperial carriage. It was the fifth prince, Xuan Tian Yan. When he got out of his carriage, he did not get a chance to chat with Feng Jin Yuan before rushing over to Xuan Tian Ming.
Feng Yu Heng saw this his expression was not too good and could not help but prod the person at her side with her elbow, “Hey! He’s come to pick a fight with us, right?”
Xuan Tian Ming laughed, “Where would he find the ability.”
While they spoke, Xuan Tian Yan had already arrived at the carriage. The slight anger in his face turned to a bitter smile when he faced Xuan Tian Ming. The fifth prince spread his hands and somewhat helplessly said: “Ninth brother, what are you doing now?”
