zChapter 1081 - Ah-Heng and Old Ninth Are Really Geniuses! (1/2)
Dong Ying insisted that Xiao Bao did not resemble Feng Jinyuan, and Fendai was a little dazed, mumbling a question: “He really doesn’t?”
Dong Ying nodded, “No, he doesn’t bear any resemblance at all.”
“Then I might have thought too much.” Fendai mumbled and leaned back on the chair again lazily, giving off a lonely aura, to the point that Dong Ying did not really understand. Were Feng Fendai’s feelings of hatred towards to Feng family reignited because of Xiao Bao or was Fendai slightly disappointed because she said that Xiao Bao did not resemble Feng Jinyuan.
Dong Ying was still kneeling on the ground, watching Fendai, feeling some pity. This Fourth Young Miss from the Feng family! She was too exaggerated, actually her life should be considered rather good. Though the Feng family was no more, she had the engagement to the Fifth Prince and the Fifth Prince treated her very well. If she was willing to behave, with her being fourteen years old now, she should be managing her dowry and marriage. But Feng Fendai was really unappreciative of her current circumstances and always wanted to go further. But she did not know, with this dissatisfaction, she grew unhappier each day and gloomier each day. When she was young in the past, it could be said that she was stubborn and obstinate, but now she was like a woman filled with hatred. Even the servants in the manor avoided her as much as possible and the Fifth Prince was not that willing to visit anymore.
She was Feng Fendai’s personal maid. Honestly, she had thought of leaving many times. Unfortunately, the servant contract was in Fendai’s hands, and where could she go as well? She was just afraid that with this master, she would be worked to death one day, right? Dong Ying thought, she still had to advise Fendai more. The Sixth Prince was ruling the court now. That was a more forgiving prince, as long as Fendai did not instigate any incidents, she could still live good days in the future.
Therefore, Dong Ying gathered up her courage, taking the risk that Feng Fendai would hit her again with her unnatural mood swings, saying: “Young Miss, the Fifth Prince just came, and after standing at the corridor for a while, he left.”
“Un.” Fendai eyes were half-closed and only replied with an ‘Un’, not showing any further reactions. Half a beat later, she mumbled again: “He can come and leave when he wants. The legs belong to him, I cannot manage it. But I do not want to see him. When he comes next time, stop him!”
“Young Miss!” Dong Ying said: “Young Miss, if you feel happy, just lose your temper at the servants, but you cannot reject meeting the Fifth Prince! The mansion we are living in now was also given by the Fifth Prince, it’s considered…… living under another’s roof! The Fifth Prince treats you well, you cannot reject him completely.”
Fendai finally opened her eyes again, looking at Dong Ying for a while, speaking again: “All of you don’t need to worry. If there is a day when I have nothing and even lost the Fifth Prince, I will give all of you enough silver and return all your contracts, allowing all of you to leave and live a good life. I will not allow all of you to go to Hell with me.”
Dong Ying shuddered in fright, kowtowing quickly: “This was not what This Servant meant, Young Miss, please do not misunderstand, This Servant only hopes for Young Miss to be happier.”
“Happy?” Fendai smiled coldly, “Aren’t people living for the sake of money and power? Only with these two things can people truly be happy. Look at the Feng manor in the past, Feng Jinyuan was already Prime Minister, but he still wanted to go further, wanted to give Chenyu to a prince who could inherit the rule of Da Shun, then become a senior statesman. Feng Manor did not realise this dream, so all of them are unhappy. I did not achieve this dream, so, I am also unhappy.”
What else could Dong Ying say? Achieving something great, surpassing everyone in the Feng family, placing herself above everyone in this world, this has become obsessions in Fendai’s life which came close to the level of perversion. There was no benefit to her saying more, and she could only retreat to the side quietly, praying that the Fifth Prince could tolerate Fendai more.
After the treatment from Yao Xian and Feng Yuheng, the Emperor’s injury improved by the day. Although that area was not as nimble as before and the nerves in some areas have already died, it did not affect the outer appearance and did not affect his daily metabolism functions, so it was considered a successful operation.
But the Emperor was not that lively. If he was not in a daze the whole day, he would say some negative things. Regardless of how Zhang Yuan tried to advise or placate him, he did not cheer up. The good thing was that the court was being supported by the Sixth Prince Xuan Tianfeng now, so the old Emperor being like this did not affect the development of the nation.
Today, the Emperor could finally leave his bed and walk around. He tried to shuffle a few steps in the inner hall. Even though it still hurt a little, that pain was in a bearable range and did not affect him. Zhang Yuan was happy that the injury could recover to this point, praising excitedly: “Princess Yu and Divine Doctor Yao are too god-like! They are really too god-like!” After saying this, he even spoke in a teasing manner: “Your Majesty, do you think it is still possible to connect This Servant’s precious one?”
With this, the Emperor became amused by this Eunuch’s comment, raising his hand and smacking Zhang Yuan’s head lightly, scolding him lightly with a smile: “What are you thinking? That thing of yours was cut off more than a decade ago. If you connect it again, isn’t it no different from a zombie? Wont’ you feel disgusted seeing it?”
