Chapter 168 I exchanged a letter of separation with a county head
No one expected that Feng Yuheng would dare to bargain with the emperor, and that the favor given by him would be exchanged for it?
Princess Xiang felt that Feng Yuheng was crazy, and just as she was about to persuade him, Tianwu asked: "Don't like the county leader? Then what do you want?"
Feng Yuheng straightened up and looked up at him. After a long while, she finally said: "Aheng wants to ask for a divorce letter from my mother, Yao."
"What?" Princess Xiang lost her voice and said, "Brother and sister, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Feng Yuheng shook her head, "I'm not talking nonsense. In our Dashun system, there is a divorce between husband and wife. A Heng's mother was not doing well. A Heng wanted to ask for a divorce letter for her mother, but she forgot
Father, may everything be fulfilled." She knocked her head to the ground again and couldn't stand up for a long time.
Tianwu just looked at her and didn't say anything for a long time. He didn't expect that Feng Yuheng would actually make this request. Just when he heard that she wanted to exchange favors, he was still guessing what the girl wanted, but he didn't expect that Feng Yuheng would just ask her for a favor.
I want to exchange her mother for freedom.
There was a period of silence in Zhaohe Hall, so quiet that one could almost hear people's heartbeats. Feng Yuheng just knelt like that, saying nothing, silently waiting for Tianwu to agree or reject.
In fact, she was unsure. After all, although union and separation existed in the laws of Dashun, after her long-term research, she found that there was no successful couple in the entire Dashun Dynasty. After all, union and separation existed.
For men, the damage to their reputation is too great. They would rather take concubines than divorce their wives, let alone divorce them.
Although Yao is now Feng Jinyuan's concubine, she was still the wife of a famous matchmaker in the Feng family back then. All the documents are still in the custody of the government. It is impossible for her to be treated like a concubine by the Feng family and she wants to separate.
There is only one way of separation.
Feng Yuheng was making a bet in her mind, and each had a 50-50 chance of agreeing or not. If the bet was won, the Yao family would be free from now on. If the bet was lost, she would never leave the Feng family again in her life.
She waited quietly, using all her patience, and waited for two sticks of incense. Finally, Tianwu said: "That's all, I'll give you the title of County Lord, and give you a letter of marriage and separation!"
Feng Yuheng didn't do anything. Tears welled up all of a sudden. Her nose was so sore that she couldn't bear it anymore. She knelt on the ground and kept shaking her shoulders.
Princess Xiang stepped forward to support her and comforted her softly: "Don't cry. I also know about the Feng family's affairs. This is a good thing. Since my father has agreed, he should be happy."
Feng Yuheng nodded, wiped away her tears, and suddenly smiled like a child, and then said loudly to Tianwu: "Aheng, thank you father for your support!"
Tianwu snorted angrily, pretending to be angry, but he couldn't help laughing when he saw the girl's emotional changes. Then he waved his hand and called Zhang Yuandao - "Draw up the decree!"
Feng Yuheng finally felt relieved, but at this time, the Feng family was in chaos again, because a group of common people blocked the gate of Feng Mansion.
"The second young lady was kind-hearted and helped the world and saved people. Now she died tragically, and the Feng family didn't even give us a chance to express condolences. Isn't this too much?"
The people who blocked the door shouted loudly: "The Feng family must have a guilty conscience. The second lady still doesn't know how she died!"
"Princess Wuyang accused Lord Feng last time. There must be something fishy here."
A man in his thirties knelt in the middle of the gate of Feng Mansion, with a brazier in front of him. He knelt there and began to burn paper. "The second lady is my savior. I was already a dead person. It was the second lady who brought me back to life."
I rescued her, and the second young lady is my reborn parent!"
Someone recognized him: "Isn't this the man who was resurrected by Miss Feng Er a while ago?"
The man nodded, "That's right. I heard about the second lady, and I originally wanted to come to express my condolences and lay incense, but I didn't expect that the Feng family wouldn't even organize a funeral for the second lady! I had no choice but to
Kneel here and burn some paper money for the second lady."
The common people who shouted at the gate of Feng Mansion also followed suit: "Yes, we are all people who have been cured of stubborn diseases by Baicaotang. Without Miss Feng Er's life-saving pills, we would have died of illness long ago."
People outside talked a lot about Feng Yuheng’s good qualities, and without exception, they were all people who had received the blessings of Bai Herbal Medicine. Wang Lin had asked Feng Yuheng for instructions a long time ago, regarding some people who were seriously ill.
But for people who really don’t have money for medical treatment, can they give some free medicinal materials? Even if Feng Yuheng decided to use 10% of Tongbaicaotang’s income every month for free clinics. At the same time, how many Chinese medicinal materials are there?
There will always be some dregs left, and the medicinal effect is actually the same, but some people always want some good-quality medicinal materials after spending money, and these leftover dregs are also used by her as free medicine.
Over time, more and more people were treated for free by Baicaotang. Even some wealthy families thanked Feng Yuheng for buying pills that cured their lingering diseases.
As soon as these people heard that something happened to Feng Yuheng, they gathered at Baicaotang to find out. After going back and forth, they formed an organization in a few days. After discussion, they gathered in front of Feng Mansion today to gather together.
They all denounced Feng Jinyuan.
At this time, Feng Jinyuan was sitting in the old lady's elegant garden. The old lady was lying on the couch in the inner room and crying bitterly. The more she cried, the more she asked Aunt Zhao to tell her what the people outside said.
Han was also beside Feng Jinyuan, pestering him with a flattering look on his face: "Master, please bring the Fourth Miss back!"
Feng Jinyuan was annoyed by her pestering, so he swung the Han family away with all his strength: "I told you! Fendai will never be able to enter Feng Mansion again in this life!"
"That's what I said before!" Mr. Han shouted: "It was before, now it is now! She was kicked out because she offended Feng Yuheng. Now that everyone in Feng Yuheng is dead, sir, do you still care about that matter?
What are you doing? The Fourth Miss is also your biological daughter! The Fourth Miss is also very beautiful!"
"Hmph!" Feng Jinyuan snorted coldly, "What's the point of having so many beautiful daughters?"
If Han doesn't do it, "At least it's better than Feng Chenyu!" She gritted her teeth angrily, "The eldest lady is a useless person now, and I'm so considerate of her that I didn't beat her to death. Is it possible that I still have hope in her? What if one day?
If the truth is exposed, it will be a serious matter of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Feng Jinyuan's face turned dark when he mentioned Chen Yu, "How can I, the eldest daughter of the Feng family, be treated in vain as a concubine like you?"
"Master, you know what's going on with her!" Han said while crying: "If I were her, I would kill myself. I would have no face to see anyone for a long time. How can I live peacefully? Do you have any idea?
I don’t want a good and innocent daughter, but I have to have such a loser. Master, I really feel sorry for the Fourth Miss!"
Han's sharp cries echoed into the inner room, directly covering the sobbing old lady on the couch.
The old lady was so angry that she hammered the bed with her hands and shouted: "Feng Jinyuan! Drive that woman away! Drive her away!"
Aunt Zhao kept trying to persuade her: "Old lady, you must not get angry!"
How could the old lady care about this? She yelled and cursed: "Things from Hualiu Lane dare to call me here, who gave her the courage? Ah? Who gave her the courage? Feng Jinyuan! Let me tell you, she
The daughters I gave birth to will not be allowed to enter the gate of my Feng Mansion in this life. Unless I die, I don’t want to see them again!"
She was so angry! If Han hadn't hid when she kicked him, why would he be lying here unable to get off the bed?
The more the old lady thought about it, the more unbalanced she became, and she shouted again: "Tell the servants to break her waist for me too! Beat her hard! Beat her to death!"
The Han family outside heard what the old lady said, and how could she not be afraid? No matter what she was, she was just a concubine of the Feng family, and concubines had no status. Not to mention giving birth to a daughter, even if she gave birth to a son, it would be nothing.
No. As long as the Feng family said she would be punished, even if she was beaten to death, she would not be able to reason with her. Like the servants, I have the least status in the family.
Listening to the old lady's words, Mrs. Han became more and more panicked. She got up in a hurry and ran away without even saying hello.
Feng Jinyuan was thinking about what the old lady said just now. The Han family did come from Hualiu Lane, so did she also know something about how to deal with Chen Yu's body?
He made up his mind, so he got up and followed Han out.
The old lady cursed inside for a while, and finally relaxed a little when she saw that Han's voice could no longer be heard.
Aunt Zhao quickly ran out to take a look, then returned to the old lady and said, "The master and the Han family have already left."
The old lady grabbed Aunt Zhao and said, "Can you call Qianrou to come and talk to me?" She suddenly missed Yao very much. In the past, when Yao was the mistress, this family was so harmonious.
!
Aunt Zhao shook her head in embarrassment: "Tongshengxuan has been surrounded by people sent by the master. Not to mention that Aunt Yao can't come out, even if outsiders want to go in, it will be difficult!"
"I can't even see you even if I want to?"
"It's not impossible. If we insist on it, no one can stop the old lady, but the master... will be angry."
The old lady wilted immediately. Yes, Feng Jinyuan would be angry. After all, Feng Jinyuan is still supporting this family. Even though she is Feng Jinyuan's mother, she cannot go too far.
"Is there anyone at the door of the house still there?"
A little girl replied: "You are still here. The concierge came to report just now. Those people said they would cry until dark."
The old lady sighed, "They are all kind and righteous people!" She closed her eyes slightly, squinted for a while, then suddenly opened her eyes and said to Aunt Zhao: "Go to the kitchen and ask the cook to make more food.
When it's ready, take it out to the people outside. They have been crying outside for a long time, so they must be tired and hungry."
Aunt Zhao was speechless, "Old lady, those people are here to make trouble, why are you still in charge of the food?"
"What's going on?" The old lady asked with a serious face, "They're here to mourn my granddaughter! Jin Yuan didn't even want to set up a mourning hall, so what's wrong with people coming to the door of the house crying and burning some paper money? Shouldn't it? I
If you can still stand up, go to the door and burn it with them early in the morning! Go quickly! Just say it was my order!"
Aunt Zhao had no choice but to nod in agreement. The old lady added: "Put in more meat, don't act like a beggar." After thinking about it again, she added: "Cook another fish and some snacks too.
A few things... let's just prepare a set of offerings for Ah Heng, put them outside, and buy some incense. If someone wants to express condolences, it's more or less the same."
Aunt Zhao was confused when she heard this. She thought to herself, old lady, are you going to set up a mourning hall for the second lady at the door of the house?
But then I thought again that it was really unfair to the second young lady that the Feng family did not hold funerals or set up a mourning hall, so she nodded and silently retreated.
But not long after, she saw Aunt Zhao running back in a hurry. The old lady was about to ask how it was done so quickly. Then she heard Aunt Zhao say: "Old lady, the eunuch from the palace came to the house to deliver the imperial edict.
