zChapter 1098 - She Wants It To Last Her Whole Life, I Will Give It To Her (1/2)

Feng Yuheng actually supported Xiangrong going back to Ji An Prefecture, she always thought that the matter between Xiangrong and the Seventh Prince was decided too much by Imperial Concubine Yun alone. If she had to judge who Xiangrong should pick between the two princes, she would definitely support her choosing the Fourth Prince. It was just that this girl was more stubborn when it came to this matter and also thought too deeply about it. Since it was like this, it would be better to give her more time and conditions to choose, taking this chance when the Fourth Prince had not given up and before the dowry arranged by Imperial Concubine Yun was sent into An Shi’s hands.

Xiangrong set off the next morning together with the person who delivered the letter. Bringing about the “effective medicine” Feng Yuheng found for her, she set off from Chun Palace, hurrying towards the west.

Feng Yuheng also came to Chun Palace to see her off together with Xuan Tianhua. When Xiangrong’s carriage was far away, she heard Xuan Tianhua say: “You sent my future Princess to another person’s side.”

She smiled without looking back, only saying: “Seventh Brother should thank me, no?”

Xuan Tianhua showed a troubled smile: “You are sharp.”

“That’s right! Because I am sharp, I can tell that even though you agreed to Imperial Concubine Mother’s arrangements, you are not willing.”

“Un, it is not considered willing, but not against it is also not fake, Xiangrong is a good child.”

“If you really like her, you would not say she is a child.” Finally, she looked at Xuan Tianhua, “Seventh Brother only sees Xiangrong as a child, right? Just like when she was ten years old, I asked you to look out for her and you only treated her as a child. It was like that in the past, and it is the same now.”

“In my eyes, she is a child, but she is a child whom one feels sorry for.” Xuan Tianhua said, “I know that how painful it is once an obsession forms in a person’s heart. That obsession could not be fulfilled and cannot go away, being stuck in the heart just like this. You cannot cross over the critical juncture of this obsession and cannot overcome the calamity of this obsession, so you cannot see any future hope and cannot experience the beauty of life. Being immersed in this for many years, a human’s mind will gradually fall apart. I have an obsession and forced myself to make it dissipate, but she cannot.”

“So you want to help her? But do you know that this way of helping her will not only be of no help, but will make her sink even deeper?” She asked Xuan Tianhua in confusion, “With regards to the marriage Imperial Concubine Mother suggested, what does Seventh Brother think?”

Xuan Tianhua could not help but laugh, “Since I nodded, I will protect her, if she is willing to sink into her obsession her whole life, I will give it to her. But if she is able to walk out of it from her own before that, then I will give her my blessings. Ah-Heng, it is not as bad as you think, actually regardless of who I marry in the future, it will all be the same.”

Feng Yuheng jolted, that was true, regardless of who Xuan Tianhua married, it would be the same. He would treat that woman well, very well, and would give the woman everything she wanted. With a person like this staying at her side, all her beautiful thoughts about men, about life, would become reality. This was Xuan Tianhua’s charisma. She knew, if Xiangrong married this person, she would be happy, just like what Xuan Tianhua said, being immersed in her obsession her whole life, there was nothing bad about it.

But, Xuan Tianhua has an obsession as well huh……

She did not dare to think about it any further, just like how Xiangrong was frequently not willing to think about the good points about Xuan Tianyi, she would feel more guilt the more she thought about it. Even though she had not promised anything before, it still resulted from her, so she would still feel sad about it.

From the capital to Ji An Prefecture, it was a 15 day journey, Xiangrong rushed through the night and reached in 11 days.

An Shi did not know about Xiangrong returning suddenly, but she heard the sound of the manor door opening on a rainy night. She was surprised that people would actually cause trouble in the middle of the night in Ji An Prefecture? Going to the front courtyard personally to take a look, she discovered that her own daughter had returned. But she did not know why Xiangrong rushed back in the middle of the night when it was raining heavily, only when she let her in did she hear Xiangrong ask: “I heard that the Fourth Prince contracted a serious disease, does Mother know if he has improved at all?”

An Shi was currently busy asking people to help Xiangrong prepare hot water for bathing, and she also brought over a dry towel to dry her hair which had become wet from the rain. The person who delivered the letter and returned with Xiangrong did not enter the courtyard, returning to the Fourth Prince directly. Ji An Prefecture was not large and An Shi was responsible for helping Feng Yuheng in taking care and managing it, so she naturally knew something about everyone’s situation. Xiangrong knew, the matter about the Fourth Prince could not be hidden from An Shi, that was why she asked.

But once she asked this, An Shi was obviously stunned, and asked in return: “The Fourth Prince contacted a serious disease? When was this? That’s not right! He came to visit me in the day and asked me for a number of embroidery samples, how could he have contracted a serious disease?”

“He’s not ill?” Xiangrong was stunned and did not care about An Shi was still drying her hair, grabbing An Shi’s hand and asking anxiously: “He’s really not sick? Mother saw this properly?”

An Shi told her: “Have you ever seen a sick person stroll around the streets every day?”

“But……” She suddenly realised that she had been tricked, and the acting skills of the person who tricked her was really good and she could not tell at all during the past few days. She sat in the chair in a daze, thinking about what she should do. Should she go to where Xuan Tianyi lived and give him a scolding, or return to the capital early next day? She remembered that before leaving Chun Palace, the Seventh Prince had told her, for some people and some matters, rather than keeping them in her heart and remembering them with concern, it is better to face them honestly, following her own heart and doing whatever she wanted. Therefore she returned to Ji An Prefecture, choosing to deliver the medicine to Xuan Tianyi and meeting him. But unexpectedly, that person tricked her, so how was she supposed to face the Seventh Prince with this?
