A Great Bargaining Chip

Start from the beginning
                                    

She finally reached the key factor. Xuan Tian Qi's eyes were opened wide, and he leaned a little closer.

Feng Yu Heng smiled. The eldest prince, Xuan Tian Qi, absolutely loved doing business, and he definitely did not care about politics. Instead, he devoted himself fully to doing business. Saying that he is the wealthiest person in the world was not an exaggeration at all. Most importantly, his businesses were spread out across the entirety of Da Shun, as well as the four surrounding countries. No matter where one went, his people would be there.

This sort of person was actually the most difficult to deal with. Although he did not have any soldiers, he did have money. Sometimes, something like money was much more fearsome than soldiers.

"We do not have money." Feng Yu Heng spoke the truth, "The thing eldest brother likes the most, his Highness the ninth prince and I do not have."

"Then what do you have?" Hearing her say this, Xuan Tian Qi did not show disappointment. Instead, he became joyful and curious.

Feng Yu Heng leaned forward and lowered her voice: "I heard that eldest brother is approaching 40 but still does not have children?"

Xuan Tian Qi was startled, and his aged face turned red. He wanted to ask "How did you know?" But when he thought about it, with Xuan Tian Ming, what was there that this girl could not find out?

"I am a doctor. There is no need to eldest brother to worry about too much before me." She did not keep him waiting, as she said: "My bargaining chip is my medical ability. If eldest brother assists us in this large matter, I will treat eldest brother's fertility illness."

Hiss!

Xuan Tian Qi took in a breath of cold air.

For him, this temptation was too great!

He had spent half of his life doing business, and he viewed expanding his business and wealth as the greatest joys of his life. But just as Feng Yu Heng had said, he was approaching 40 but did not have a son nor daughter. In his palace, regardless of whether it was the official princess or his concubines, none could bear a child. If he did not have an heir in this lifetime, what was the point of having this wealth? Could it be that it would be donated to the imperial treasury after his death?

Xuan Tian Qi held his breath for a long time before exhaling, but he used an almost trembling voice to ask Feng Yu Heng: "You are truly able to treat it?"

She nodded, "It can be treated."

Xuan Tian Qi did not even think before clapping his large hands: "Deal!" He then recalled some other important matters, "The crystal ornaments... younger sister, forgive this prince for being direct, but have our plans have been seen through by the other side?"

Feng Yu Heng shook her head and honestly said: "I do not know, but it is impossible for them to not suspect at all. His Highness the third prince originally had a distrustful personality, so we can not hope that the play we have put on over the past few days to completely fool him. Let's watch a little longer."

"Very well, then this prince will wait for news from younger sister." He said this then stood up. He did not remain any longer and said: "This prince will go back first." Turning, he immediately left.

Only then did Huang Quan trot back to Feng Yu Heng's side. A little worried, she said: "Meeting with his Highness the eldest prince is fine, but young miss meeting alone with his Highness the third prince made this servant feel nervous the entire time."

Feng Yu Heng laughed, "Could it be that he can eat me?"

"Do you think he can't?" Huang Quan's eyes widened, "Two years ago, rumors spread from the Xiang Palace about how his Highness the third prince would bite people when he became angry. The palace's former housekeeper had been bitten to death by him."

"I am not a defenseless housekeeper." Feng Yu Heng rolled her eyes and spun the dagger used to skin the snake in her hand, "Look, I am quite fierce."

The corners of Huang Quan's lips twitched, "Young miss, this servant will not make any assessment of your sleeves." She then turned her eyes to the snake skin that Xuan Tian Ye did not take away. Unable to help herself, she asked with interest: "How should this be taken care of?"

Feng Yu Heng looked at the bright green snake skin and found it to be truly quite beautiful, thus she placed it in her sleeve and tossed it into her space, "At a later time, I will find someone to make something out of this snake skin. Un, in another two months, it will be the new year. When that time comes, we will use it as a gift to the Xiang Palace. Thinking about it, his Highness Prince Xiang will definitely like it."

Only then did Huang Quan cover her mouth and begin to laugh, "This servant watched from far away and saw his Highness Prince Xiang's expression when young miss skinned the snake. Thinking about it, when he sees this present, he will enjoy the coming year with similar feelings!" She said this while looking at Feng Yu Heng with a gaze full of admiration, "The skill revealed by young miss truly was quite shocking. Forget about Prince Xiang, perhaps even our Highness the ninth prince would have no choice but to give in."

Feng Yu Heng smirked, "You absolutely must not tell Xuan Tian Ming. Last time, he even said that I am not like a female."

Huang Quan immediately began laughing, "Young miss is still young. Young girls all like to play, but the things you play with are a bit special. That's all. There is nothing too surprising."

Feng Yu Heng and Huang Quan's minds were truly satisfied. She stood up and prepared to return to the banquet, but just as she exited the pavilion and before she could take even a few steps, she saw a round figure rushing over from the direction of the banquet hall.

Huang Quan let out a "huh" sound then said: "The Emperor's young grandson came out to find young miss, right?"

As she said this, Xuan Fei Yu ran over and grabbed Feng Yu Heng's hand. Not worrying about catching his breath, he began to drag her back. At the same time, he shouted: "Deity big sister, quickly! Quickly come back! Something happened to your younger sister!"
