C467 Why harm me (1/2)
Before she fell asleep, Princess Thirteen, Feng Yao, was sitting on the couch, letting the palace maids remove the ornaments on her head. Before she fell asleep, Princess Thirteen, Feng Yao, was sitting on the couch, letting the palace maids remove the ornaments on her head.
Feng Tang Yao looked at her, she was not wearing any accessories, but she was smiling, her beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, her long hair was falling down over her shoulders like black jade, and she was wearing a white, close-fitting dress, which made her skin look very delicate. She was currently leaning against the bed, reading a book.
Feng Tang Yao felt a faint jealousy rising from the bottom of her heart. She had put in a lot of effort to dress up, but since Sister Eleven was so casual, she still had a kind of beauty that she couldn't ignore.
She said, ”Sister Eleven, your accessories are really simple.”
Feng Lingyue put down the book, touched her hair and said: ”I originally didn't have many accessories, but the last time my mother was punished, a lot of them were taken away. Moreover, it would be even more inconvenient to dance today, so I only let Zhili take two for me to wear.”
When Feng Tang Yao heard this, she motioned for the servants to leave. She walked over to Princess Eleven and held her hand. ”Sister Eleven, you're so pitiful.” As she spoke, her eyes slowly turned red with tears.
Feng Lingyue's heart trembled. Feeling Feng Ziyao's sympathy, she consoled her little sister, saying, ”Thirteenth Little Sister, it's alright. Don't be sad because of me, I'm already used to it. Wealth is like the clouds, power is like dust; as long as someone is by my side, it's good enough.”
Feng Tang Yao stared into Feng Lingyue's eyes, tears streaming down her face. ”But I still feel you're very pitiful.”
”…” Feng Lingyue forced a smile. ”It really doesn't matter.”
She did not like others to sympathize with her like this. She worked very hard in her life, and she felt that everything was still full of hope. Even if there was no hope, she still had herself.
However, she felt that it was because Feng Yunyao was kind-hearted and didn't understand her that she kept on saying that she was pitiful, so even though she felt uncomfortable, she didn't say anything more.
”Sister Eleven, what do you think of the Heavenly Treasure Great General? Is he nice to you? ” Feng Yang asked casually, but his heart was filled with an uncomfortable feeling.
”He was young and famous, everyone said he was a hero, and he was kind to me.” Feng Lingyue said as she thought about her feelings towards Xiao He.
”Then Sister Eleven is really happy.” When Feng Tang Yao heard that Xiao He was good to her, she felt a pang in her heart. Thinking of how Xiao He would always buy meat pancakes for Feng Lingyue and how she refused to give them a single glance, she became even more unhappy and asked, ”If you stay with me, will he come to see you?”
”That won't happen. Even though we have an arranged marriage, we still haven't officially married off. This is against the rules. Besides, today's matter with Lu Jingyao happened so the Xiao family is in a dire situation.”
”Oh.” Feng Tang nodded, but she felt a trace of disappointment in her heart. For the entire day, she hadn't even seen Xiao He's face properly. The closest she had been to was when he was standing below the stage talking to Aunt Eleven.
She said that she was afraid. Firstly, she wanted to take the opportunity to talk to Xiao He, and secondly … It was another reason.
Feng Lingyue patted her hand and gently said, ”Alright, it's late at night. It's time to sleep.”
”Yes.” Feng Tang Yao nodded, ”I hope that one day, I can find someone who will make me very happy, like Sister Eleven.”
And the only person that gave her happiness was only Xiao He.
”I will, Thirteenth Sister.” Feng Lingyue said to her, and then she stood up and extinguished the candle flame, preparing to rest.
Both of them were lying on the couch, but Feng Lingyue was lying in the darkness with her bright eyes open, unable to fall asleep.
Happiness? Would she really be happy?
At this time, Feng Ziyao seemed to be tossing and turning, the sound of rubbing against the bed could be heard.
”Thirteenth Sister, what happened to you?” Feng Lingyue sensed the same thing and hurriedly asked.
”Sister Eleven, I, I'm feeling a bit uncomfortable. My heart is in pain …” Feng Tang Yao let out a painful moan.
Feng Lingyue quickly got up and lit the candle, only to see Feng Wu Yao lying on the bed with her body curled up into a ball, looking very uncomfortable.
”Thirteenth Sister, what's going on? I'll call the imperial physician right away.”
”No, there's no need, Sister Eleven.” However, Feng Ziyao tugged on her sleeve and said, ”If I go to the imperial physician at this time, it will alarm Imperial Father. Imperial Father is already very tired because of Lu Jingyao this year, so don't make him worry. My situation is also not that serious.”
”What do we do now?” Feng Lingyue asked anxiously, ”Is there any way?”
”Sister Eleven, you … you let my mama come in and take care of me. You and your palace maid can use the medicine pack on my table to fry my medicine, okay? Don't alarm the others. ” Feng Ziyao buried her head in the quilt, as if she was in great pain.
”Alright, alright, don't be anxious, don't be afraid, I'll go and help you concoct the medicine right now.” The Eleventh Princess hurriedly put on her clothes and called in Feng Yunyao's spring mama to serve her.
In the past few days in the Cold Palace, she had always taken care of herself. Since the empress had occasionally been able to get the medicine, and she was the one who had come to fry it, it had been very easy for her to fry it, especially with the help of the empress.
Around half an hour later, the medicinal herbs were done being fried. After that, Zhixiang carried the medicinal herbs back to Princess Thirteen's tent.
The Eleventh Princess personally blew the medicine to cool it, not giving it to Feng Yunyao to drink.
However, after drinking a few mouthfuls, Feng Ziyao suddenly covered her neck with both hands and coughed hard, looking extremely uncomfortable. She looked at Feng Lingyue with frightened eyes and said, ”Sister Eleven, you, what did you put in the medicine …”
”What …” Feng Lingyue was stunned, she couldn't recover her wits. ”I, I was using the pharmacy you gave me to fry.”
