C554 Agreement (1/2)
”This Fourth Prince has a gloomy heart and a shrewd mind. At that time, he even came to propose marriage, swearing that he would marry you. Later on, he made things difficult for you. Now that he has taken the Xiao family's, you should stay away from him.”
”Daughter knows.” Lian Ruyue nodded and said.
When Feng Tang returned to Changchun Palace, she was so angry that Lian Zhaoyi said, ”It's the day of the empress's funeral. Be careful of what you do, and do not let the public know that you are disrespectful to the empress.”
”Hmph.” Feng Gouyao snorted coldly, ”You said that I was disrespectful to her, and that she was disrespectful to Imperial Father. She died too early, and if Imperial Father knew what she had done, he would have given her to death as well.”
”Tang Yao'er, what do you mean by this? Do you know what it means?” Lian Zhaoyi asked.
Thus, Feng Ziyao recounted the matter of Princess Eleven not being the Emperor's own son.
When Lian Zhaoyi heard this, he was extremely shocked. ”Is what you said true?”
”Of course, I heard it with my own ears. She even sent Feng Lingyue to join her concubine.” Feng Tang Yao said.
”...” If only she had known about this earlier, she wouldn't have sat in the back for so long. ” Lian Zhaoyi said in a regretful tone.
”No.” Feng Ziyao stood up and said, ”I want to tell royal father that Feng Lingyue is a fake princess.”
”Wait.” However, Lian Zhaoyi stopped her.
”Mufei, I can't stand Feng Lingyue being treated like a princess even though she's not one. She's obviously lying to my royal father, I have to expose her!”
Seeing Feng Ziyao trembling with anger, Lian Zhaoyi looked at her and said, ”You exposed her because you wanted Xiao He to come into contact with her, right?”
Feng Tang blushed and said, ”I can't hide anything from mufei.”
”Tang Yao'er, you're the Thirteenth Princess. If you're not going to choose anyone, why do you have to choose Xiao He? Mufei is afraid that people will criticize you in the future, and says that you're going to steal my would-be husband.” Lian Zhaoyi said.
”But, but I only have my eyes on Xiao He. Mufei, support me. If Xiao He and Feng Lingyue break the engagement, I naturally have a way to stop others from talking.” Feng Tang said, holding Lian Zhaoyi's hand.
”Eleven is not about the real princess, but to let your father know, but, you should not say anything, firstly, the empress has just died, and you already ran off to complain, and will inevitably give people the feeling that you were adding insult to injury, and secondly, if something goes wrong during the process of reporting, it will be the responsibility of our Yi Xiu Palace.” Lian Zhaoyi pondered for a moment before replying.
”What better way does mufei have?” Feng Wu Yao asked.
”At this moment, the Duke of Xiao should be on his way to the palace. You should be guarding in the shadows, and when you see him, you should ask him to step in and tell the Duke of Xiao about this, with mufei's understanding of the Duke of Xiao, he should be unhappy about the marriage between Xiao He and the Eleventh Prince, but it's not like he didn't have the opportunity to propose a rescission of the engagement. If he finds out about this matter at this time, he'll definitely go and expose that the Eleventh Prince is a fake princess.
When Feng Tang Yao heard this, she lamented that her mother was still as powerful as the concubine and hurriedly left the palace. Just as Lian Zhaoyi had said, she ran into Xiao Zhenhai who was rushing into the palace.
Xiao Zhenhai bowed and said, ”I wonder why you are looking for this humble one?”
”Duke of Xiao, this princess wants to tell you a secret. I don't know if you have time to listen.” Feng Yang said.
