Chapter 175 My Daughter-in-Law Must Be a First-Daughter
84_84041 Xuan Tiange's words made Feng Jinyuan frightened. He had already had doubts about this sudden appearance of the county master, but now that he heard such words again, he suddenly felt a bad feeling.
feeling.
Is it possible...
Feng Jinyuan shook his head violently, impossible!
While thinking, the emperor had already arrived in front of the throne. Everyone on the island knelt down facing the emperor and shouted: "Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor! Live a thousand lives, a thousand lives, a thousand lives."
When Tianwu glanced around, everyone immediately felt a chill rising above their heads. Especially Feng Jinyuan, he always felt that the emperor's gaze rested on his head for a long time, making him feel overwhelmed.
Finally, Tianwu had seen enough and waved his hand: "Pingshen."
Zhang Yuan, the eunuch beside him, immediately shouted: "Ping Shen!"
Only then did people stand up, and then returned to their seats as the emperor and empress sat down.
As soon as he sat down, he heard Tianwu speak again, asking Feng Jinyuan with a caring look on his face: "Feng Aiqing has been away from Beijing for many days, how did the ancestor worship go?"
Feng Jinyuan quickly stood up again and respectfully replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. Everything is fine back home."
Tianwu squinted his eyes and nodded, "Well, that's good. The affairs of the court have been busy recently, and it's hard for me to ask you in the court. I just took this opportunity to inquire with you. I feel relieved knowing that everything is all right.
Finished." After saying that, he looked towards the field again, turned around and returned to Feng Jinyuan, and asked in confusion: "Where is my wife?"
Feng Jinyuan was shocked when he heard this, and thought to himself, Your Majesty, didn't you do this on purpose? Could it be that you didn't know that Feng Yuheng was dead?
He took a sneak peek at the princes sitting closest to the emperor, and immediately caught sight of the face wearing the golden mask.
It's been so many days, why is there no movement from the Ninth Prince? Princess Wuyang has made a lot of noise, but he acts like nothing is happening, which is really strange.
"Your Majesty." Even though he didn't want to mention this matter anymore, he had to speak. This was asked by the Emperor, and Feng Jinyuan understood that he was afraid that through this palace banquet, the Emperor would settle a score with him. "My lord.
When I returned to my hometown to worship my ancestors, my ancestral home unfortunately caught fire, and both my legitimate son and second daughter... died in the fire."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and wiped it on his face. He looked very sad, but Xuan Tianming snorted unceremoniously.
But Tianwu shook his head and said directly: "Feng Aiqing likes to tell jokes with me. My daughter-in-law is both civil and military, how is it possible that she can't escape even if the house is on fire? It's impossible, impossible!"
Feng Jinyuan knelt down directly on the ground, with a sad expression on his face: "Your Majesty, I hope this is a joke, but... it is indeed true!"
Tianwu still didn't believe it: "If this is true, why didn't you even hold a funeral when your legitimate son and second daughter died? Feng Aiqing, it's better not to make such a joke!"
"Back to the emperor, the funeral was held at the ancestral home, and it was not held again after returning to the capital. They are just juniors after all, so I didn't mobilize any troops."
"Lord Feng." Someone in the crowd of princes spoke up. It was not Xuan Tianming or Xuan Tianhua, but the second prince, Yuan Wang Xuan Tianling. "No matter how low-key and honest my brother and sister are, you as a father can't
Can't you arrange a curse like this?"
As soon as Feng Jinyuan heard this, he immediately thought of Feng Yuheng's rescue of the little emperor's grandson on Yuexi, and immediately realized that among this group of princes, the seventh and ninth princes were not the only ones who had friendship with Feng Yuheng.
The sweat on his forehead began to seep out, but Emperor Tianwu unexpectedly smoothed things over at this moment: "Let's not talk about it anymore. Feng Aiqing has always been an old-fashioned person. It's not easy for us to make jokes. We can't just be honest.
Thank you for your support. Today’s palace banquet is held for my newly appointed Lord of Ji’an County. The County Lord was frightened a few days ago, so all my dear friends, please give me some comfort.”
People immediately stood up and responded: "That's nature, that's nature."
Tianwu nodded with satisfaction and said to Zhang Yuan beside him: "Go and invite the county master to come over!"
Zhang Yuan immediately ran to deliver the message. Not long after, he saw another small boat floating on the lake where he came from. The boat pavilion was actually made of soft smoke, and there was a woman sitting inside, dressed in fine clothes, sitting quietly.
Quietly look straight at the people in front of you.
For a moment, some people's eyes were attracted by the soft smoke on the boat pavilion, so that they ignored the woman who was supposed to be the protagonist.
But there were also more people who stared at the well-dressed woman in the boat. She was wearing a pink dress and a jade ornament on her forehead. She was dressed as a county princess. She also held a gray cat in her arms.
, has a big head and round face, but has a pair of eyes that seem to be able to peer into people's hearts.
Feng Jinyuan's legs were a little weak. Not only hers, but also Chen Yu's and Fen Dai's legs were trembling. Especially Fen Dai, as if she had seen a ghost, she covered her mouth with one hand for fear of making any sound.
When Xiangrong took a few steps forward in surprise, he didn't realize that he had walked into the middle of the crowd. He just looked at the slowly approaching ship and felt very happy.
Her second sister, it turns out that the emperor’s newly appointed county head is her second sister!
Xiangrong finally understood what Xuan Tianhua said before, and it turned out that the second sister was really not dead!
Finally, when the boat reached the shore, two palace maids immediately came forward to greet them. They saw the dressed-up woman getting off the boat steadily and walking forward step by step.
Only then did people realize that the newly appointed Lord of Jian County was actually the daughter-in-law the emperor mentioned just now! The second daughter of the Left Prime Minister!
Those who had expressed their condolences to Feng Jin Yuandao just now cast questioning glances at him. Some people who were quick to speak even asked, "Didn't Prime Minister Feng say that your second daughter was burned to death?"
"No! It's no wonder that I shed a lot of tears, you are actually joking with us!"
Feng Jinyuan had a hard time arguing that he had been looking for Feng Yuheng in Fengtong County for so long but could not find him. Who would have thought that this girl would actually return to the capital, enter the palace, and find a county boss?
Seeing that Feng Yuheng was about to pass by him, Feng Jinyuan lowered his head guiltily and twisted his body further in.
I really don’t know how to face this daughter. Although he did look for her after the fire, others don’t know whether he tried his best to look for her, but Feng Jinyuan himself knows it. What’s more, the person is missing at all.
, but he insists that he is dead, and the emperor is still here. If we insist on pursuing him for cheating the emperor, what should we do?
Feng Jinyuan had too many things crammed into his mind at once, and everything was because of Feng Yuheng's "resurrection". He gritted his teeth and sighed secretly, as the old saying goes, the more you hope to die,
The more you want someone to live well, the more likely that person will die in an accident.
From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that his daughter would die, but unfortunately, what happened to Feng Yuheng, one by one, could never be evaluated using common sense.
"Daughter-in-law, I bow to my father, and I bow to my queen, and my father is long live, and my queen is a thousand years old." In one sentence, Feng Yuheng knelt down in the field and kowtowed three times to Tianwu who was sitting in the seat. The cat was
She was held in his arms, motionless.
Tianwu looked at Feng Jinyuan with a smile: "They said that my daughter-in-law is dead. Why, Feng Aiqing doesn't even know whether her daughter is dead or alive?"
Feng Jinyuan quickly knelt down, "I don't dare!"
"Don't you dare?" Tianwu was furious, "Feng Jinyuan! I don't blame you for the fire in the ancestral house, but if your daughter was burned to death, you reported the funeral without even checking. What on earth do you want to do?
Do you still remember that this daughter is my daughter-in-law?"
The more Tianwu talked, the more excited he became. At the end of the sentence, he grabbed the glass cup on the table in front of him and smashed it against where Feng Jinyuan was kneeling.
The glass cup hit Feng Jinyuan's forehead without any bias, causing blood to ooze out instantly.
Everyone present did not dare to say anything or express their anger. Shen Yufendai thought that when the three of them saw this, they could no longer ignore it and stood up and knelt down.
Feng Jinyuan's vision was blurred by blood, but he did not dare to say a word. He only knelt and trembled, thinking about the tragic death of Bu Shangshu at the last palace banquet in his mind, and cold sweat broke out in his hair.
Fortunately, Tianwu did not continue to argue with him. Instead, he turned to look at Feng Yuheng and said something that directly changed the situation of the Feng family - "Now Feng Yuheng, the legitimate daughter of the Feng family, is appointed as the head of Ji'an County and granted peace."
The entire county of Ji'an County is a fiefdom, and the existing residence, Tongshengxuan, has been changed to the princess's mansion, with the main entrance opened, and the lord of Ji'an County has the right to enter and exit independently!"
Feng Jinyuan's mind was buzzing for a while, and he was a little confused about the emperor's path.
However, Feng Chenyu suddenly raised his head as soon as Tianwu said these words, and blurted out: "Your Majesty, you are wrong! Feng Yuheng is not the legitimate daughter!"
Tianwu glanced at Chen Yu with boredom and said nothing. After all, he didn't bother to talk to a woman he didn't get along with. However, the queen sitting next to him knew how to take the words at the right time and looked at Feng Chenyu.
Said: "How can I allow you to talk nonsense in front of the Emperor?"
Tianwu then asked Chen Yu with great interest: "What? Do you have any doubts about what I said?"
Chen Yu also reacted to this at this time, and realized that he was too quick to talk, and actually started to challenge the emperor. He quickly knocked his head to the ground and said: "People's daughters don't dare!"
"Hmph!" Tianwu snorted coldly, "Back when the Feng family married the only daughter of the Yao family, even the Queen Mother personally gave her a reward. How come Feng Yuheng is not the legitimate daughter? Feng Jinyuan, I really want to ask.
You, do you want to be recognized as your legitimate wife and legitimate daughter by me, or do you want to take the risk of violating the holy will and insist on recognizing your concubine, raising your wife’s status, and recognizing the daughter born of this concubine as your legitimate daughter?”
Feng Jinyuan knew that he had no choice at all. Regarding the Yao family, he and the old lady had already thought about it. They were afraid that they had made a mistake in guessing the Holy Will back then, or that the emperor had changed his mind in the past few years.
In short, he is the one who is not human inside and out now.
"Of course... I agree with the emperor." He replied helplessly.
Chen Yu felt his head explode with a "bang", and his body shook a few times and fell to his knees on the ground. His body, which was already cold due to falling into the water, immediately shivered, but he could not arouse the slightest sympathy from people.
Everyone who has been living in Beijing knows very well what happened to the Yao family back then. Although people don’t say it, they despise Feng Jinyuan in their hearts. Their daughter married you, and your Feng family used it to
The Yao family has established a firm foothold in Beijing. What's the matter? We can only share joys and sorrows, but we dare not share hardships?
Feng Yuheng looked at Feng Jinyuan and Chen Yu kneeling on the ground, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Just wait, your retribution won't be the only one.
"Daughter-in-law, thank you for the emperor's decision! My daughter-in-law, on behalf of my mother Yao, thank you for your great kindness!" Feng Yuheng knocked her head to the ground and expressed her sincere thanks.
Restoring the position of Yao's mistress was outside of her plan. Everything was Tianwu's own idea. But she knew that she had the paper and the book in her sleeves. What Tianwu did was
We must maximize the dignity of the Yao family and her. Even if they are separated, they must leave the position of mistress just like when they first married into the Feng family. Only in this way can they live up to the Yao family's "men will not take concubines, and women will not take concubines."
