Chapter 392 - Feng Yuxuans Imaginary Enemy



“The Eighth Brother is just a playboy and cannot achieve anything. He will pose no challenge. No matter how he racks his brains to fight, it is in vain that he has no background. All the people know that the Father Emperor spoils him. What waves can he make? It will only disturb the Father Emperor...”

Feng Yuxuan covered his head and said indifferently. At that time, he just felt frustrated and feared if the Emperor knew all about it, he would get the fame that his behavior was so indecorous that he dared to cast greedy eyes to his brother’s consort. With his favor to Feng Yuran, the Father Emperor would not spare Feng Yuxuan. Besides, that fame was not really good, different from his public image.

Feng Yuran was just a playboy? Qin Yufeng’s eyes flickered with contemplation in the bottom of his eyes. But he did not go deeper into the topic. Instead, he took up a cup of tea and took a sip. He narrowed his eyes, tasted the tea, and gave a faint smile. “Your Highness, don’t you want to take this opportunity to get the beautiful lady?”

“Well... I...” Feng Yuxuan rarely got red and embarrassed, turned his head one side and coughed. “I didn’t do it all for her.”

“Your Highness, have you not dropped the idea? Do you want to be King Xuan’s enemy?” Qin Yufeng tapped his finger twice on the teacup and asked casually.

Since Qin Yufeng and Feng Yuxuan had been friends for years, Qin Yufeng knew well what Feng Yuxuan thought though he did not speak out openly. Feng Yuxuan always had some evil thought for that beautiful woman. Qin Yufeng knew Feng Yuran’s thought well. And who was the woman? She was King Xuan’s current consort—the previous Third Young Miss Mo.

But Qin Yufeng did not expect that Feng Yuxuan still had the hardihood to think about Mo Xuetong.

“Rest assured. I know what matters now. It is not the time to talk about it. And my backyard cannot contain such a woman.” Feng Yuxuan looked serious and chilly. Although the woman was beautiful, he knew that he could not have a dream of her right now. But when he ascended to the throne, it was just a piece of cake to get her.

At that time, what could Feng Yuran, an untitled King, do to resist Feng Yuxuan’s order? Instead, Feng Yuran would have no way but to trade his own wife for a safe place to stay. At that time, the beautiful woman would still belong to him, Feng Yuxuan.

It was true that Feng Yuxuan’s backyard could not contain King Xuan’s Consort, but his harem could have a pretty consort...

“Your Highness, it is best that you can think like this. Recently, King Ning made a scene in the imperial court. It is said that many old officials have a close relationship with him. As for the group of people, Your Highness, don’t get worried. Those people tried to capture King Xuan’s Consort just because they wanted to frame you up. At this time, you should not act rashly.” Qin Yufeng said after thinking for a while.

“So just let go of the group of people?” Feng Yuxuan said in a resentful voice. He could not reconcile himself to be cheated by others. Thinking that when he schemed others, he was also schemed, he was burnt with fury, as only he could scheme others.

“If not, don’t you want to fight against them to the end? Don’t you fear that the Emperor will know you also get involved in the whole case? Perhaps King Ning is waiting for your rash action so that he can meddle in it.” Qin Yufeng said with a light smile.

If King Ning plotted the whole thing, his purpose was to deal with Feng Yuxuan. And Feng Yuxuan also thought that it was King Ning who was behind the plot. Thinking their attacks and counterattacks in the imperial court and they both shared wins and losses, Feng Yuxuan was rather angry, because Feng Yuzhen was just the Emperor’s nephew. Did Feng Yuzhen dare to dream about succeeding the throne?

Feng Yuxuan rubbed his painful head and gritted his teeth. He knew Qin Yufeng was right, so he suppressed his anger and said coldly, “Fine, I will not deal with him temporarily.”

“Your Highness, it is good that you can think in this way. If we don’t get flustered, the opponent perhaps will be in disarray. Has the person that you planted beside King Ning kept a close eye on him?”

“Well, just do as you said. I will send a message to the person to watch what action King Ning will take. It was said that several days ago, King Ning got close to Consort Yu of the Caiwei Palace. Could it be possible that he plans to use the unimportant child in her belly to make any fuss?” Feng Yuxuan withdrew his annoyance and talked to Qin Yufeng sincerely.

He really thought that Qin Yufeng was his own good counselor, so he did not continue with too much courtesy.

“Yufeng, don’t take an imperial examination for the top candidate any longer. Won’t it be more useful to be a high official in the future? You come to help me now! You are indispensable for me!” Feng Yuxuan was indicating that he, Feng Yuxuan, would become the Emperor in the future, and he would grant the position of Grand Secretariat to Qin Yufeng.

During these days, Qin Yufeng was grounded in the Qin Manor. The counselors around Feng Yuxuan just gave him the awful advice that made him lose his judgment. Thinking the times when Qin Yufeng could have the situation well in hand, Feng Yuxuan had never felt so frustrated, so he had a high aspiration of getting Qin Yufeng to help him.

Although Feng Yuxuan said in a polite way and smiled with the eagerness for talents, a coldness had taken on his eyes, showing he had some doubt!

“Qin Yufeng has not come to help me. And now, he is trying to turn me down. Has he found a better choice?” thought Feng Yuxuan.

If so, Feng Yuxuan thought, he could not let Qin Yufeng live in the world any longer, because this person knew a lot about Feng Yuxuan’s past. If Qin Yufeng turned traitor one day, it would be greatly destructive, and if he publicized what Feng Yuxuan had done before, the Emperor would not spare Feng Yuxuan definitely, and the life imprisonment would be the least severe punishment. At the thought, Feng Yuxuan held the cup and turned it around in his hand. The cup almost fell to the ground at the corner of the table. The falling of the cup on the ground indicated the killing order.

Feng Yuxuan had arranged several secret guards and killers beside his room. As long as he issued the order, those people would let Qin Yufeng die.

He could not tolerate that anyone was out of his control, instead, he liked controlling other’s life and death.

Qin Yufeng glanced around and saw all clearly in his eyes, and felt bitter, as the friend who grew up together had doubts about him now. Anyone would feel said. But the bitterness flashed in his eyes, and he regained his calm and easy look.

“Thank you for your favor. But my father is too stubborn. If I fail to bring credit to my family and get any official rank this time, perhaps he will lock me in the home forever. But it is good anyway. I will try my best to go out at your disposal. If I can get any official rank through the imperial examination, I can assist you in a right and proper way.” Qin Yufeng’s words showed his consideration for Feng Yuxuan.

Although the Number One Scholar was not at a high rank and even could not be a great official compared to those really influential officials, the Scholar was admired by all the scholars in the world and served as an example for them. What he said carried a lot of weight among scholars. In the past, Feng Yulei enjoyed the virtuous reputation because he used the scholar. In this regard, if Qin Yufeng could become the Number One Scholar and spoke for Feng Yuxuan before the scholars, it would yield twice the result with half the effort.

“However, will Qin Yufeng lie to me?” Feng Yuxuan thought.

“Your Highness, there is no other way out actually. I was also framed up! If it had not been for that... So, we have to meet trick with trick now. If I am not around you, others may relax their vigilance.” Qin Yufeng sighed, as if depression piled up in his heart. He frowned, took a gulp from the teacup and put it down. “It was my fault that I was too careless and fell into the trap at that time!”

He was talking about the uproar that the woman came to Qin Manor and made last time. Although the thing was appeased, Qin Yufeng who was an upright gentleman was described as having some affairs with the woman. However, it could not be explained clearly, just like a dyed white cloth. No matter how hard one wiped, the cloth could not be as pure as before.

But if one really needed to get the bottom of the thing, Qin Yufeng encountered the undeserved misfortune for Feng Yuxuan.

Feng Yuxuan softened the stern look in his eyes and put down the teacup on the table steadily. He said in a gentle and apologetic voice, “It was because of King Yan’s dirty tricks that Yufeng was set up. I really did not expect that King Yan could have so powerful men. And I also got serious injured at that time.”

As Feng Yuxuan said, his face got darkened and his eyes flashed with cruelty.

This was Feng Yuxuan’s biggest secret right now. Even if he had a good relationship with Qin Yufeng, he always mentioned it appropriately. Judging from the appearance, Feng Yuxuan was still the King with graceful bearing and his arms were the same as ordinary people. But only a few people knew that his arms were badly injured. Even until now, he was just able to pick up some light things like chopsticks, and even for a book, he could not take it for a long time.

In a word, Feng Yuxuan’s hands were actually disabled and could not be recovered, because the tendons under the arms were broken. If the Emperor knew it, Feng Yuxuan was utterly deprived of the chance to fight for the throne. Based on the rules for being the Emperor in the Qin Kingdom, the candidate for the Emperor was at least a sound and healthy prince.

Thinking of this, Feng Yuxuan gritted his teeth with hatred. Until now, he had not found out who hurt him, but he mainly suspected Feng Yulei and Feng Yuzhen. Well, just to be sure, he did not exclude the possibility of Feng Yuran, though it was not so possible. The assassin was so vicious that he could find out Feng Yuxuan’s deepest tendon in a blink and made the arms unable to get effective treatment instantly.

After coming out of the King Chu’s Manor, Qin Yufeng went to a bookshop, just beside the one where he met with Mo Xuetong last time. He came into the bookshop and scanned some books for the imperial examination, and found some light readings about anecdotes and strange things before he came out.

A carriage passed in front of him. The wind heaved up the corner of the curtain, and a delicate and pink face was seen inside. Her skin was smooth and fair with a lovely face enough to cause the downfall of a country. She seemed to see him, raised her eyes and gave him a faint smile like spring water. She was really an unusual and quite individual beauty. The wind blew away and the curtain fell to cover her gorgeous appearance.

There seemed to be a sigh spreading in his heart. He felt too painful to breathe. If those dreams were true, his life could continue on her life, and he owed her in his last life, so this life, he would give her back.

Mo Xuetong also saw Qin Yufeng, but because she had something urgent, she just passed by with a smile. In the last life, she had lived in the shadow of Qin Yufeng. In this life, she had no intersection with Qin Yufeng. If she had not seen clearly that he always stood behind Mo Xuetong, she would have almost regarded him as an ordinary person in this life!

“My Lady, will you really go to the subsidiary manor? But His Highness asks you to have a good rest and not to run here and there.” Mo Lan took out a few snacks from the cupboard in the carriage, served them on the table and asked worriedly.

Although King Xuan had added more secret guards around the Lady, Mo Lan still felt worried.

“If I don’t go out today, the rumor that I have been captured will become truth. So whether I am busy today, I should come out.” Mo Xuetong answered with a soft smile. Although yesterday Feng Yue said the one who had been taken away was the Lady’s maidservant, someone with evil intention implied that it was Mo Xuetong who had been taken away in fact.

So if Mo Xuetong did not show up today, no one knew what the rumor would become tomorrow!

“My Lady, you just need to hang out on the street. Why do you bother to go...” Mo Lan asked with puzzlement. The two so-called cousins were really annoying and came to the Manor almost routinely. After being scolded by the King, they would like to invite the Lady to go to the subsidiary yard.

Mo Lan was afraid that the two would cause trouble again, so she could not set her mind at rest.

“It’s okay, don’t worry about them. They still need our help, so do not dare to do harm to us.” Mo Xuetong answered slowly, as she smiled with an easy look on her beautiful little face.

“What do they want to get from you, My Lady? Do they have the pipe dream to enter the manor?” Mo Lan did not understand. Since the King’s disgust to them was so obvious and merciless, would they still bear the thought to attach themselves to the great? As for Feng Yuran, Mo Xuetong’s maidservants became more and more satisfied.

Since the Lady married into the manor, all the people could see how well the King treated her. Although it was said that there were a number of women in the back garden, fortunately, the King did not allow those women to disturb the Lady, even to serve the tea. His action showed that those women could not even be concubines. To deal with those women who were not concubines, the Lady, as the legitimate wife, had the right to beat or sell them, equal to common servants.

A bare word from the Lady could decide their being beat or sold!

Seeing the King’s so deep love for Mo Xuetong, Mo Xuetong’s several maidservants could not help thanking the Buddha and thought their miss could finally reap the rewards and lead a happy life. Therefore, when they discovered the two sisters of the He family had some special ideas for Feng Yuran, the maidservants had a low opinion of them two and always blocked their ways of getting close to Feng Yuran.
