Top Contestant in Competition to Kill Herself

Start from the beginning
                                    

Feng Jin Yuan was truly regretful at this moment. When he returned to the manor, he had heard that Fen Dai was learning to perform this snow dance. He originally thought that she simply wanted to try and capture the fifth prince's heart and would just dance for him privately, but he absolutely never thought that this girl would be so bold and dare to dance in front of the Emperor. Feng Jin Yuan felt that he had made a large mistake on Fen Dai's situation.

Speaking of, when daughters of officials of similar rank to his had to marry, they would have chosen a good husband. There was no need to mention the daughter of the first wife, as they were the majority of the family's glory. Even if it was the daughter of a concubine, they were used to help pave the road for the daughter of the first wife or they were used to prepare an escape route for the family.

In the Feng family, he had made plans long ago for Chen Yu. Feng Yu Heng had also been promised to the ninth prince. As for Fen Dai and Xiang Rong, Feng Jin Yuan was also preparing to send them into a prince's palace. As for which prince they would be sent to, he still had not figured that out. But since the fifth prince had already expressed his desire, he did not have any intention of refusing. Either way, Fen Dai was still young. In the following years, he would still have a chance to take a look.

But today, this girl's boldness had already drawn fire on herself. Whether or not her life would be spared remained to be seen.

Feng Jin Yuan was both angry and afraid. Kneeling on the ground, he did not even dare to raise his head. If Fen Dai were to be abandoned, he would not feel distressed at all. But whether or not he felt distressed was one matter, the face of the Feng family was another. If something happened on the first day of the new year, how should the Feng family pass the rest of the year?

Looking at the panicked appearance of Feng Jin Yuan down below, the Empress could not help but glance towards the Emperor. After all, this was the family of a standard first rank official. She had to try and figure out what would be the best decision.

However, the anger in the Emperor's eyes did not appear to be weakening in the slightest. In fact, it became more and more furious. If it continued like this, perhaps he would explode!

The Empress' heart trembled. She could not allow the Emperor to explode over such a thing on this day. After all, it was not just officials and their families present. There were also foreign envoys. It was the idea of not airing dirty laundry. If outsiders were to see it, what sort of situation would that be?

Thus she quickly spoke: "Prime minister Feng, your daughter is dancing quite beautifully. This one thinks that she dances very well. How about she remains at the palace from this day forward, so she can perform this dance for his Majesty and this one at any time."

Feng Jin Yuan was startled, remain in the palace from this day forward? Was that not essentially putting Fen Dai under house arrest? What was the difference between that and death? And even performing this dance at any time, the Emperor became furious just from seeing it once, how could he possibly watch it at any time. Feng Jin Yuan felt a sudden surge of emotion. He wanted to strangle Fen Dai to death. She was unable to accomplish anything but was able to spoil everything. He had managed to relieve the disaster with great difficulty and earned some merit. In addition to Feng Yu Heng's earlier performance, he was truly quite happy. He even planned to praise Feng Yu Heng for a while after they returned. Since this second daughter had this sort of ability, he would need to soften his attitude and take the initiative to try and reconcile. But Fen Dai causing trouble like this caused all the good feelings to disappear.

"Your Highness." Although he already gave up on this daughter, as a father, he could not be too distant in front of all these people. Thus he could only grit his teeth and say: "My youngest daughter is still young. She is completely ignorant. Would your Highness please pardon her!"

The Empress began to play dumb, "This one wishes to keep her in the palace. This is a good thing. What sort of thing is Prime minister Feng saying?"

"Your Highness!" Feng Jin Yuan once again brought his head to the ground, "My youngest daughter is completely ignorant!"

These words were very clear, and everyone was able to tell that something had happened.

The song from the flute and the dance outside continued. The fifth prince, Xuan Tian Yan was completely outside and staring blankly. He was completely oblivious to what was happening inside the hall.

As for the people seated in the hall, they began to react. Something had gone wrong with the dance being performed by the Feng family's young miss.

"Prime minister Feng." The Empress put on a serious expression, "This one is being graceful. What other requests do you have?"

Feng Jin Yuan had been blocked and rendered speechless. Indeed, this was a grace. If it were not for the Empress speaking up, and the Emperor had spoken instead, Fen Dai's blood would have been spilled on the spot.

Thus he kowtowed and did not say another word, accepting it.

But at this time, eldest princess Kang Yi, who had been sitting near Feng Yu Heng, suddenly stood up. Walking over to the middle of the hall, she stopped next to Feng Jin Yuan and said: "Your Highness, the Feng family's fourth young miss' thoughts were clever. Kang Yi is truly grateful."

Once this was said, everyone was shocked.

Grateful? What are you grateful for?
