Dongling Ziluo didn't speak, and Feng Qingchen couldn't take the initiative to speak. It was also silent. Feng Qingchen only felt at ease when he was with Wang Jinling, but when he was with Dongling Ziluo, he felt upset.
The atmosphere in the carriage was very strange. Apart from Zi's shallow breathing, there was nothing else. Dongling Ziluo would occasionally cast a few complicated looks, but those looks made Feng Qingchen's whole body hairy. He always felt that something was wrong.
Something is going to happen.
For the first time, Feng Qingchen felt that the road from the palace to Feng Mansion was really long. She felt uncomfortable riding in this carriage. As soon as the carriage arrived at Feng Mansion, it had not stopped yet. Feng Qingchen couldn't wait to get off the carriage.
.
This is the real urgency!
Dongling Ziluo did not stop him, but before leaving, he said: "Feng Qingchen, if you win, I will make you my concubine."
After saying that, he asked the coachman to drive back to Prince Luo's Mansion, leaving Feng Qingchen alone, standing there thinking about these words.
"What do you mean? Make me a concubine? Didn't I refuse before? No, Dongling Ziluo didn't have any reluctance when he said he would make me a concubine. This time, he seemed very unhappy. Could it be..."
"Is there something wrong with his marriage to Princess Yaohua? Or maybe the emperor wants him to make me his concubine? The former is still possible, but the latter seems unlikely, right?"
She was the notorious Feng Qingchen, and the news of losing her virginity before marriage spread throughout the imperial city. How could the emperor let Dongling Ziluo make her his concubine?
"What's impossible?" Xie San's carriage stopped on the other side and called Feng Qingchen a few words, but he didn't see her reaction. He heard Feng Qingchen's words as he walked over and patted her on the shoulder.
"Ah..." Feng Qingchen was startled. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the person coming, and hurriedly patted his heart: "It scared me to death. Xie San, don't you dare say a word. If you scare someone, you will scare them to death."
"I've called you many times, but you didn't answer me." Xie San looked aggrieved.
"Oh, that's my fault. I was thinking about something just now. What do you want from me?" Feng Qingchen calmed down and smiled faintly to cover up his lack of concentration.
Although Xie San was curious about what was going on that made Feng Qingchen stand in the middle of the road in a daze, he saw that Feng Qingchen didn't seem to want to, so he didn't ask.
"If something happens, I'd like to thank you on behalf of the Xie family."
"Thank me? The second lady is pregnant? Impossible." Feng Qingchen motioned to Xie San to go to the house before talking. Although it was early in the morning, there were still people coming and going. The two of them were standing on the street. This was nothing.
"It's not about Second Aunt." Xie San signaled to the servants of the Xie Mansion and brought the thank-you gifts in. Feng Qingchen did not stop him. If he did not let the congratulatory gifts from Xie San come in, he would be directly at odds with the Xie Mansion.
Already.
After working hard in the imperial city for more than half a year, she no longer had the original impulse. No matter how disgusted she was with Xie Mansion, she would not break her face and create a strong enemy for herself for nothing.
"show."
"Thank you, sir."
The guards in Feng Mansion were all sent by Zhai Dongming, and half of the servants were sent by Su Wenqing and the other half by Wang Qi. They were all well-trained and kept Feng Mansion in order.
"Your mansion finally looks like something." Xie San recalled that when he first arrived at Feng Mansion, there was not even a water delivery person in Feng Mansion, and there was an atmosphere of abjection and decay everywhere. He didn't expect that in less than a year,
, Feng Mansion has changed drastically.
As expected, it is better to bully a white-headed man than a poor young man.
"It's just a show, I'm used to being poor." The etiquette and rules of a real official family are quite strict and cannot be learned overnight. In the eyes of those people, Feng Mansion is just a household.
And since she doesn't have the life of a noble, why should she hold herself to the standards of a noble?
"When have you ever been poor? You're just not good at enjoying it." Nobility cannot be supported by status and fancy clothes. Nobility lies in temperament and details.
Feng Qingchen is a very contradictory person. To put it bluntly, the Feng family is completely poor. It stands to reason that a family like the Feng family, let alone a noble daughter, can raise Feng Qingchen not to be vulgar.
Even that’s good.
But Feng Qingchen had a vaguely noble and dignified temperament. Unfortunately, Feng Qingchen was too casual and rough in his daily behavior, and did not show that nobility.
After the two sat down according to their order, the maid served the tea and then quietly left: "It's rare to drink such good tea at your house." According to Xie San's status, he can't drink any good tea. This is just a saying.
Just bring the distance between the two of you closer.
"My apprentice serves you." Feng Qingchen is really not good at enjoying things, food, clothing, housing and transportation. He never pays attention to refinement, but only seeks comfort.
"It turns out that all the good things you have here are gifts from others. Fortunately, I also brought some good things over. You can go and take a look when you have time."
Xie Mansion's gift was definitely not light. Xie San mentioned it again, presumably because he wanted something. Feng Qingchen picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Are you here because of Concubine Xie's affairs?"
"Yes." Feng Qingchen mentioned it directly. If Xie San continued to talk in circles, it would appear hypocritical.
"I can't help you with Concubine Xie's matter." This is the truth. Concubine Xie is not sick, so there is nothing she can do.
Xie San put the tea cup down and sighed heavily: "Qingchen, we have only known each other for a day or two, so we are somewhat grateful.
I have no other intention of coming today. I just have to come because of the orders from my family. I just came to tell you that it’s up to you whether you agree or not. I just hope that you won’t cut off our relationship because of the Xie family’s affairs.
friendship."
"You are you, and the Xie family is the Xie family." In fact, Feng Qingchen wanted to say that they were not familiar with each other, so there was no friendship at all. But thinking about it, these words were really hurtful. Plus, Xie San was still a
Yes, it is not as deadly as what he said.
Xie San breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. I really don't want you to hate everyone in the Xie family because of what happened to the Xie family."
Feng Qingchen smiled and said nothing. In fact, she just hated everyone in the Xie family. Her preconceived notions made her dislike the Xie family.
Just because she has understood that hardness is easy to break, she will not express her likes and dislikes easily.
"Qingchen, the Xie family has also found out something about Concubine Xie, but I'm just not sure. After asking you to confirm it yesterday, the Xie family also knows what to do. They won't trouble you or involve you in this matter.
.”
Feng Qingchen nodded and said nothing, thinking to herself, since this is not the case, what else does Xie Mansion ask of her?
"Qingchen, you also know that although the Xie family has been a century-old family, their foundation in the palace has always been very shallow. The Xie family has never made good friends with the imperial physician in the palace.
Therefore, those imperial doctors knew that the imperial concubine had physical abnormalities, but they never said a word. When the Xie family heard that you were on good terms with Imperial Physician Sun, they thought of getting married to Imperial Physician Sun through you, hoping that Imperial Physician Sun could help Concubine Xie in the palace. "Thank you.
San told him everything he knew.
"So, Concubine Xie will be pregnant soon?" Feng Qingchen vaguely understood that the Xie family already had connections, but there were still ten months between pregnancy and childbirth. Concubine Xie needed the help of the imperial physician during these ten months.
, in order to successfully give birth to the child.
"It should be soon." Xie San didn't know the specific situation. After all, he was not the head or candidate of the Xie family, so it was impossible to participate in the core affairs.
Feng Qingchen nodded: "I understand, I will go to Dr. Sun and tell him, but I can't guarantee whether it will be successful or not."
From her point of view, she hopes that Concubine Xie can give birth to a prince, so that the queen will have a rival and will not have time to focus on her...
