iiChapter 772 - Marriage Is on the Agenda (1/2)
There were changes to Feng Yu Heng’s space. This was the second change to occur after the appearance of the underground weapons room!
It had to be said that this change was related to the appearance of the underground weapons room. That was a hidden room that she had filled with weapons and ammunition that she had obtained from overseas. The mainland was very strict in controlling these things. Even if she could steal some from the military, it would be limited to her personal weapons. Of course, she did not abide by such rules and would have a method to obtain some special weapons; however, there were not many. It could not be compared to the amount that she had obtained from overseas.
When she had just been transmigrated to Da Shun, she had carefully investigated the pharmacy space. She found that the underground weapons room could not be opened, which meant that the entire pharmacy did not have a single firearm. But later on, when she arrived in the North, she suddenly found that the hidden area could be accessed, and the weapons could be brought out. But that was strictly limited to one hidden compartment, and she could take out a firearm. But in truth, she had dug two compartments at the very beginning. Each one was two square meters in size.
When she entered her space today, she suddenly discovered that the second compartment had opened itself, and it was just laying in the open while being connected to the first compartment. There were even more firearms, and there were even more types. The ammunition was also exposed, and there were a few grenades.
Feng Yu Heng was a bit dazed. Walking over to the side of the compartment, she sat on the ground and stared at the things inside the compartment. She clicked her tongue. Heavens, how had she obtained so many of these things and hidden them?
To Feng Yu Heng, this topic had practically become a great mystery. Even up to now, she could not understand. Just how much did she love firearms in her previous life? Thinking about it carefully, she recalled the year that she was 22 years of age. For the sake of a new type of grenade, she had flown to M Country on her own and went to do business on the black market. She could not help but smile bitterly and sighed that she was young and passionate at that time. Now, although her body was still not 15 years of age, adding on the years of her previous life, she was heading toward 30. How much passion could remain!
She sighed bitterly and inspected the things inside the second compartment. There was no difference from the previous life, thus she did not pay too much attention to it and closed the lid on the compartment. The floor tiles returned to their original positions, and everything looked as if it had been untouched; however, Feng Yu Heng’s heart felt uneasy. Firearms had appeared inside her space. From this moment forward, there was no difference in this space from her previous life. There were no longer any hidden compartments like in the beginning. Everything had appeared in this era, but would this be a good thing or a bad thing?
With the Emperor in his waning years, the princes of Da Shun were making their moves. During the changing of the era, it was inevitable that battles would be started. For these things to appear in her space, was it a coincidence or was there a special message? Her original intention was to use her pharmacy space for medical purposes, and she had never thought of bringing firearms out onto the battlefield of this ancient world. Following the appearance of the modern era, what sort of changes would occur to this world?
Feng Yu Heng could not understand, thus she did not think about it any further. Although she still felt a bit uneasy, it was not something that she could figure out an explanation for immediately. She forced herself to calm down and did not rush to take her shower. She simply began to sort through some medicine in her space.
The people from Hundred Herb Hall were arranged to enter the palace after the new year. She had to find some reserve medicine for Sun Qi to bring along in the event that a need arose. In truth, Xuan Tian Ming had secretly installed a number of people inside the palace, including Imperial Concubine Yun. Although she remained inside Winter Moon Palace and did not come out, she saw quite a bit. At the very least, she definitely had people watching Heavenly Hall and Zhao He Hall. But she still wanted to personally send some people inside, especially people that could openly converse with the eunuchs of the palace. With people in the shadows and in the open, this was a beautifully concealed deployment.
Large amounts of medicine were moved from the space into the medicine storage room. The packaging was removed, and the medicine was placed in bottles. The medicines’ names were written along with the effects and expiry date. All of this was done with great proficiency. Feng Yu Heng would always become flustered inadvertently. She had come to Da Shun for no more than two-and-a-half years, so why did she already feel as if she had lived here for decades? She actually felt that her previous life was a long dream.
The fourth month in the lunar calendar or the 15th of May in the Western calendar would be her 15th birthday. Girls in Da Shun became of marriageable age at 15 years of age. She and Xuan Tian Ming had also agreed that the day she became of age, she would also get married. At first, everything had been settled on, but there were now some concerns. It was about to be the first month, and the day that she became of age was drawing closer and closer; however, Xuan Tian Ming would be going to the South after the new year. Would he be able to get back in time to prepare for the wedding? On the day that she went to the Yu Palace, there did not appear to be any signs of preparing for a large wedding. Even Lady Zhou did not bring it up. That side did not bring it up, thus it was not easy for her to ask. This matter was just left there, and it left her feeling uneasy.
When she came out of the medicine storage room, it was already the evening. The kitchen had prepared dinner, but she had no desire to eat. She only ate a few vegetables, which caused Huang Quan and Wang Chuan to believe that she had fallen ill. They then continued to ask her all kinds of questions for a while. She was only let go by the two servants after she said that she was tired from sorting out the medicine and was a bit idle; however, she was urged to rest in the inner room.
Feng Yu Heng really wanted to lie down, but who knew that just as she lay down, a servant reported that someone had come from the Yu Palace to deliver clothes to the young miss. She could only quickly get up and put on her clothes. Bringing along her two servants, she headed to the front yard.
The person that had come was Lady Zhou, and she had brought a few servants. Feng Yu Heng welcomed her into the hall, and Lady Zhou quickly had the servants bring the clothes forward. At the same time, she said: “It’s almost the new year. On the first day of the new year, you will need to go into the palace to participate in the palace banquet. My Lord ordered this morning that these things needed to be prepared for the princess, and this old servant went early this morning to have them made. They were finally completed. Bring them over for the princess to see if they fit. Princess, also take a look to see if you are satisfied.”
Lady Zhou was a kind person, and she spoke with a smile on her face. The sight of that smile was heartwarming. Feng Yu Heng looked at the clothes that the servants held and felt a bit emotional, and she could not help but say: “Ever since coming back to the capital, Lady Zhou has never forgotten about me when the new year comes around. The things that need to be prepared are tidily prepared, and A-Heng is truly grateful.”
