Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Slightly startled, Nalan Zhangqian sighed.
“The young lady of the Qin family is sick. Your aunt went to the Qin family this morning and has not returned yet. She told us not to disturb her. Perhaps, she does not know about this.”
Feng Ruqing sank into silence.
Feng Ruqing’s aunt Qin Yue, was the eldest daughter in the Qin family. The young lady of the Qin family was her sister-in-law. The young lady had always been weak and infertile. Even so, the Qin family had never given up on the young lady and the young master, Qin Lin, had never thought of getting another wife.
“Uncle, I have gone out for the whole day. My father must be worried about me. I need to go to the palace. I will pay the young lady of the Qin family a visit later.”
“You want to visit the Qin family?” Nalan Zhangqian was worried and his brows knitted together.
“Uncle, are you worried that I would mock the young lady that she is a hen that is not capable of laying eggs?” Feng Ruqing broke into laughter.
As the young lady of the Qin family was weak, she rarely walked out of the manor. However, as part of the Qin family, she had always b.u.mped into the princess. The princess had always mocked her, and she had even pa.s.sed out from rage.
“That’s not what I meant. I am just worried that the young lady of the Qin family is afraid of you and her health would be affected if she sees you,” Nalan Zhangqian could not help but answer.
Feng Ruqing’s face darkened. The old princess had caused too much trouble. She must iron them out one by one.
“Uncle, they will not throw me out the manor if Dai’er is going with me. Everything would be just fine.” Feng Ruqing smiled as she stroked Dai’er’s head.
Things would become much better if Feng Ruqing could meet the young lady of the Qin family.
The news that Feng Ruqing had returned to the city had made a great stir in the palace. Some of them felt relieved, while most of them were disappointed.
n.o.ble Consort Rong was extremely resentful and had nearly broken all the ceramic decorations in her manor. She hated that Feng Ruqing was still alive and that she was not as obedient as she used to be.
It was natural that n.o.ble Consort Rong hated Feng Ruqing. She had put in so much effort to rise to her current position. Ever since Feng Ruqing had woken up, all her efforts had gone down the drain.
“Feng Ruqing! I will get everything that Nalan Yan owes me from you!”
Liu Rong’s eyes darkened, a faint semblance of enmity flickered in her eyes. Her face turned extremely ferocious and horrifying.
Twenty years ago, many well-off and privileged young masters and ladies had gathered at Liu Yun Kingdom. The crown prince Feng Tianyu, was amongst them. As Feng Tianyu was extremely talented and stunningly handsome, he had stood out from the crowd. Liu Rong had fallen in love with him at first sight.
However, Feng Tianyu had given his heart to the eldest daughter of the general’s family—Nalan Yan.
A young master with remarkable talent and an exquisitely gorgeous young lady were no doubt a match made in heaven. On the contrary, Liu Rong was no match for her and was left to wither.
Liu Rong hated the fact that she had actually fallen in love with Feng Tianyu first, but he had gone and given his heart to Nalan Yan.
Hence, Liu Rong’s father had worked together with many officials of the kingdom and forced the emperor to take Liu Rong as his concubine during the empress installation ceremony.
As many of the officials had their own conspiracies and wanted to make their own daughter as one of the emperor’s concubines, they had quickly agreed with Liu Rong’s father.
At that time, Feng Tianyu was still very young when the late emperor pa.s.sed away. Hence, he did not have a strong foundation and naturally, was not capable of going against them.
