Chapter 236 (2/2)
As the saying goes, money must be spent to quell disasters. Feng Chen Yu handed over the three million in bank notes, and Feng Yu Heng directly led her into the medicine storage room.
Huang Quan personally stood guard outside, as Yi Lin wanted to try and peak in between the door and the door frame, but she found that there was a curtain inside blocking her view. She was unable to see anything.
“It would be best if you were more obedient, otherwise, I will call all of Tong Sheng pavilion’s servants over to keep watch. This will let all of the servants know that the Feng family’s eldest young miss is inside to get an illness treated.”
“No need, no need!” Yi Lin waved her hands in fear, “There’s no need to call them. Do not call anyone. Is it not fine if I stop looking?” The young servant angrily stomped her feet and could only keep watch outside with Huang Quan.
Huang Quan smirked and thought to herself, sure enough, the criminal has a guilty conscience. Having this sort of problem taken care of but being afraid that others would find out, they had the ability to not do this sort of thing to begin with!
Four hours later, Feng Yu Heng came out of the medicine storage room with Chen Yu.
Yi Lin quickly went over to support Chen Yu. Seeing that her facial color was not too good, she could not help but ask in concern: “Young miss, are you ok?”
Chen Yu shook her head and pulled on Yi Lin’s sleeve, only saying: “Let’s quickly leave.” While saying this, she already began walking away. It was as though Tong Sheng pavilion was a haunted place that they had to escape.
Huang Quan was puzzled and asked: “What is going on? Young miss, what did you do to her?”
Feng Yu Heng shrugged, “Not only did I not do anything to her. I even truly took care of her illness. But you must understand, there are some people who excel at burning bridges after they’ve crossed them. Inside, she asked me hundreds or thousands of times to make sure that she was truly healthy. Her purpose was so she could immediately leave this troubled place when she came out. When she returned, she could make the most of her time to try and find a way to deal with me permanently, so that she can completely seal the wound.”
Huang Quan nearly laughed, “Deal with young miss permanently? Based on her?” But she still asked in concern: “Since young miss knew that her mind was not normal, why did you still help her with that illness?”
Feng Yu Heng smiled and said: “Because some people are fitting, as I still need that devastating beauty of an eldest sister to lure a snake out of its hole. We can not be missing her walking around in the middle.”
“But wouldn’t truly curing her be too much of a victory for her?”
“Is it a victory? Haha!” Feng Yu Heng buckled with laughter, “Treating it does not mean she can feel secure. Does she want to wipe away the truth? She has been too optimistic!”
Feng Chen Yu led Yi Lin out of Tong Sheng pavilion. The entire way, she sneaked about as though she were a thief. Using the smaller paths, she returned to her own courtyard. Only after she entered her room and closed the door did she let out a sigh of relief.
She truly feared that she would run into Feng Fen Dai or Han shi along the way. Who knows what that sort of person who could make a mountain out of an molehill would say about her pale-white complexion. Even if they did not suspect anything else, just standing there in mockery of her was too much for her to handle!
Yi Lin saw that her complexion was not too good and quickly helped her onto the bed. At the same time, she asked: “Young miss, do you want to have the granny come into the manor immediately?”
Chen Yu shook her head, “She said that the wound has not yet completely healed. I can only get out of bed in three days time. For the next few days, tell those outside that it is too cold outside, and I have caught a cold. I also will not be going to pay respects to grandmother for that time. After three days, invite that granny into the manor. Remember, you must be secretive about it. You absolutely must not let anyone find out.”
Yi Lin helped her with her blankets while nodded, “Don’t worry. Third master’s hidden guard has said that he will personally bring that person over. Thinking about it, it should be at night, so young miss should get some more rest during the day.”
Chen Yu nodded and did not say anything else. Lying down in bed, she fell into a deep sleep not long later.
Three days later at midnight, Chen Yu nervously sat on the side of her bed, waiting for Chen Wan Liang’s hidden guard to arrive.
Yi Lin had slightly opened up the back window and was now standing there listening for the sound of movement.
Not long later, she saw a black shadow enter the room. Yi Lin’s eyes blurred, as she saw a person in black clothes standing in the middle of the room with an elderly woman.
She was given a fright and quickly ran forward. Seeing that the person before her was the familiar hidden guard, she let out a sigh of relief. But when she looked at the granny, she saw that she had been carried in unconscious by the hidden guard and could not help but be startled: “Is this person alive or dead?”
Chen Yu stood up from the bed, “Of course she is alive. I think she should have had an acupuncture point hit by this big bro, right?”
As she said this, she blinked a few times, but the hidden guard did not even look at her. This caused Chen Yu to be a bit gloomy.
“Alright, let’s wake up this granny first.” She calmed her expression and gave the order.
She saw the hidden guard reach out and release the acupuncture points from the granny, and the granny immediately woke up. Seeing the person before her, she tentatively asked: “This is the girl who needs to be examined?”
The hidden guard nodded, “It’s her. I will wait outside. When everything is taken care of, I will pay the rest of the money.”
“Good.” The granny became lively. Seeing the hidden guard leave in a flash, she turned back around and sized up Chen Yu.
Just looking was fine, but it truly gave the granny a shock. She could not help but say: “This old servant has worked in the palace for half a lifetime and have seen the imperial concubines chosen by the Emperor. Accordingly, the women chosen to enter the palace are all beauties, but I have never seen one who was more beautiful than this young miss.”
This old woman’s eyes were sharp. Once these words came out, she had reached an understanding.
It was said that Prime Minister Feng’s eldest daughter was a beauty capable of causing the collapse of countries. To say that she was the most beautiful girl in the capital was an understatement. Perhaps there would not be another girl more beautiful in the entirety of Da Shun.
And that was most likely the person before her.
