Shen Yi Di Nu, Divine Doctor: Daughter of The First Wife

791

Feng Yu Heng was fine with chatting about anything. Either way, they were both people that did not enjoy watching plays. Coming out to admire the lake was fine. She was not a daughter of a rich family that was overly bashful. She had never felt that there was anything wrong with standing beside a man. Even Huang Quan and Wang Chuan, the two servants, were not stupidly superstitious about such things. Also, the feelings that Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tian Ming shared could not be torn apart by others so easily. The two servants just stood to the side and took a few steps back. They could still clearly hear what the two masters were talking about. They heard the sixth prince talk about his new year’s customs and his contributions to Da Shun by compiling books. Their young miss also looked to like listening to this and would occasionally give some advice on the compiling of books, which received quite a bit of praise from the sixth prince. They could not help but feel proud of their young miss, as Huang Quan even quietly said: “Our young miss really is an all-around talent. She knows how to do everything.”

In regards to this, Wang Chuan believed that this was correct; however, she said: “The sixth prince is such a good person. I just don’t know which family’s young miss will be fortunate enough to enter the Xian Palace’s gates.” While she spoke, she pondered, “I feel that the young miss of the first wife of General Ping Nan’s manor would be quite good.”

“But General Ping Nan already requested a decree from His Majesty, saying that his daughter would not marry a prince.”

“That’s right! But don’t you feel that the pairing a scholar with someone with a military background is very good?”

With Wang Chuan saying this, Huang Quan also felt that this was indeed very good. That young miss, Ren Xi Feng, got along very well with their own young miss. She was also a decent girl and looked very good. She was very suited to the sixth prince. “But how could what we say count?!” Huang Quan shrugged. It was nothing more than idle gossip. The marriage between a prince and a young miss would not need their concern.

While the two servants were chatting idly, the conversation between the two masters was currently going in a more serious direction. It was Feng Yu Heng that took the initiative to ask Xuan Tian Feng: “Sixth brother, there is something I must ask, but do not get upset.”

Xuan Tian Feng nodded, “Go ahead and ask.”

She said: “Does Noble Lady Li really know witchcraft? In regards to the witchcraft that the Miao people use, I know a little bit about it. Based on what I know, Noble Lady Li is not someone that was raised by the Miao.”

Once this question came out, Xuan Tian Feng laughed a bitter laugh. It was a very helpless and bitter laugh. He told Feng Yu Heng: “How could she know any witchcraft? It all came from some hearsay about being able to harm others by stabbing a little figure with a name written on it.” As he spoke, another layer of bitterness appeared on his face, “In truth, my mother is a very cowardly person with a weak personality. When she first entered the imperial palace, she was always bullied. You also know that the inner palace is much like a battlefield. She could not beat anyone openly and could only hold it in her heart to think of ways to secretly vent her anger. Who could have known she would be discovered and would nearly lose her life. Later on, the matter was only dropped because it was discovered that she was pregnant with me. But nothing really happened to the person that was stabbed. Even last time at the hunting ground, did anything happen to you after that little figure was stabbed?”

Feng Yu Heng shook her head, “Nothing happened.”

Xuan Tian Feng spread his hands, “Don’t be scared and don’t take it to heart. That person is just like that. That’s just her way of venting her frustrations. In truth, she doesn’t know anything about witchcraft. It’s all just her messing around.” After he finished speaking, he was worried that she would not believe it and continued: “I only heard about the earlier matter after growing up, and I secretly investigated it. I even asked her about it, and it is indeed just for her to vent. She doesn’t know how. She really does not.”
