Chapter 749 - Ambition, Why Not Take Off? (1/2)
The cause of the little white tiger’s sudden violent turn was finally found, but what about what followed?
Xiang Rong suggested: “Do we need to report to the Emperor and have all of the imperial guards that use this sort of fragrance rounded up?”
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, “The Emperor must not be disturbed. This matter should be discussed with His Highness the Second Prince.” The imperial tent was divided into an inner room and an outer room. Xuan Fei Yu was laying in the outer room, and it did not affect the rest of the Emperor, who was sleeping in the inner room. But the group remaining inside to the discuss the matter was not proper, thus Feng Yu Heng kept Wang Chuan behind and told her: “Keep an eye on Fei Yu. If anything happens, you must send someone to notify me. Remember, send someone instead of going yourself. You must not move from this spot and protect him. Understand?”
Wang Chuan nodded, “This servant understands. Young Miss, don’t worry.”
As for Xuan Tian Hua, he spoke up and said: “I will send the third young miss back. You go to Second Brother first. I will catch up with you later.”
After the group split up, Feng Yu Heng brought Huang Quan toward the second prince’s side. After the little white tiger was brought away from Xuan Fei Yu, its violent mood gradually passed. It regained its appearance of a small cat in Huang Quan’s embrace, and it even withered slightly. Huang Quan was slightly dejected and asked Feng Yu Heng: “Did someone deliberately use that fragrance to cause Xiao Bai to go wild? It’s too much. Our Xiao Bai is still a young child, and it’s so cute. How could they bring themselves to drug it?”
Feng Yu Heng smiled wryly, “In the eyes of others, no matter how small, it’s still a tiger. Moreover, if someone really did apply a drug, it was on Fei Yu’s body, and that drug…” As she spoke, she began to furrow her brow. She then muttered to herself: “In truth, that sort of fragrance does not have the power to cause a person or small animal to become violent. I truly cannot figure it out. Why would this little guy become like that after smelling it?”
Huang Quan analyzed it with her: “Could it be that it’s unrelated to the fragrance? Instead, the problem is with the young imperial grandson’s body?”
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, “No, when far away, it can still see Fei Yu, and there were no changes in demeanor. It only reacted once it got closer. The problem is definitely related to that fragrance. I just don’t know what sort of drug was in use here.”
As the two spoke, they arrived at the second prince’s tent. Upon arriving at the entrance, they heard the second prince loudly scolding the servants. Following this, one imperial guard came out of the tent after another. They then dispersed in all directions. Immediately following this, it was the eldest prince’s voice, as the two continued to discuss Xuan Fei Yu’s injury. Feng Yu Heng lifted the tent flap and entered. When the second prince saw her, he immediately asked: “How is Fei Yu? Young Sister, if you came here, does that mean that something happened?”
Feng Yu Heng shook her head and consoled him: “Second Brother, don’t worry. There are no problems with Fei Yu. He’s still sleeping. I left Wang Chuan to stand guard. There’s also the Emperor in that tent, so absolutely nothing will happen.”
Xuan Tian Ling also knew that he had been overly worried. After all, that was the imperial tent. Even if someone wanted to act stupid, they would not dare do it in front of the Emperor, thus he let out a long sigh then said: “With just this one child being raised and treasured, I never dared to allow anything to happen to him. Who knew that going out for a simple hunt would end up with this sort of situation. I am also quite anxious.” After speaking, he said to the eldest prince: “Speaking of, Eldest Brother is the most fortunate. After not having children for many years, two appear with just a few passing mentions. It’s much better than me having only one heir.”
Feng Yu Heng felt very uncomfortable from hearing this. Although the second prince did not blame her, what Feng Fen Dai had said was correct. The tiger was one that she was raising, and no matter what, she could not clean herself of this matter completely. Feng Yu Heng had also thought that Xuan Fei Yu was just a child, and His Highness the second prince did not compete for the throne. Regardless of who it was, they should not have turned their dark ideas on Xuan Fei Yu. After much thought, it seemed that they just wanted to use Xuan Fei Yu to give her a shock in the same vein as the imperial carriage and the heater. It let her know that there was still an enemy hidden in the background; however, she could not see them nor touch them. She could only worry. That was to say that at the very root of this, she had implicated Fei Yu. The opponent’s goal was just her, Feng Yu Heng.
But in the end, now was not the time to assign blame. Instead, they had to quickly find the true culprit. Feng Yu Heng calmed herself down and quickly told the two princes about the matter regarding the fragrance. The second prince was in an anxious mood and immediately wanted to give the order to round up all of the soldiers that were using this fragrance; however, he was stopped by the eldest prince, “Second brother must not be overly hasty. If our actions get too big, it will not help with finding the culprit.”
Feng Yu Heng also spoke up: “Right now, this matter still has not been figured out. It is indeed not a good idea to go rounding people up.”
The group remained in the tent and began discussing the fragrance. The second prince said: “There must be something else in that fragrance, and it must be very well-hidden, such that Younger Sister would not even find it. As for that amount, it was just enough to make a small tiger become violent and bite someone. As I see it, it’s very simple.” While he spoke, he pointed at the little white tiger that Huang Quan was holding. The more he looked at the little thing, the more he felt that it was cute. He was completely unable to understand how this thing would get violent so quickly. It seemed that tigers were just tigers and could never become cats.
But his views caused Feng Yu Heng to fervently shake her head, “There really was no different content. Second brother, trust me. This little tiger was raised by me. If there is even the slightest chance to clear its name, I definitely will not be vague about it; however, the search for the true perpetrator cannot be delayed because of it. Otherwise, this time it’s Fei Yu, but next time, who knows who it might be. I fear… that Father Emperor might get hurt.”
