Divine Doctor: Daughter of the First Wife Chapter 1043 - After Obtaining It, I Don’t Like It Anymore

Chapter 1043 After Obtaining It, I Don’t Like It Anymore
The Empress said: “This morning, the Emperor mentioned you, you probably have to pack up and prepare to leave the palace after this Imperial Banquet. My Jing Ci Palace can keep you, but unfortunately, this imperial palace cannot. Currently, I am unable to make any decisions in this harem. You should have some idea about this, after the imperial banquet ends, leave with Ah-Heng and the others!”
“Hm?” Feng Zhaolian was stunned, “The Old Emperor wants to chase me out? Hoho, I think the one who wants me out is Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu! That’s funny, when staying in the palace, did I eat her food or drink her water? What I eat and use belong to Jing Ci Palace, how is it related to her? In my opinion, this kind of person deserves a beating, Ah-Heng, why don’t we work together and beat up that Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu!”
This sentence sounded like a joke, but Feng Yuheng actually took it seriously, and she even considered it more than once. Even if she could not kill Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu, giving her one beating should be fine, right? As long as her life is kept, nothing would happen with the Emperor.
Seeing her thinking about it seriously, the Empress was speechless, what if these two people really wanted to beat her up? But thinking about it again, just let them do it, if Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu was willing to face death, she could withstand a beating, right? Therefore, she did not say anything, allowing these two people to plan this properly.
However, Feng Yuheng did not plan it for too long and came back to her senses quickly. She did not reply Feng Zhaolian, and only asked the Empress: “Your Highness, are you able to send Zirui out of the palace tonight?”
The Empress jolted, then shook her head with a troubled expression, “I’m afraid I cannot do anything.” When she said this, her face was filled with frustration.
Feng Yuheng also knew she was asking for something impossible, so she did not mention it again, looking for a seat to sit down. And as she just sat down, someone walked into Jing Ci Palace, she looked over. Surprisingly, it was Feng Fendai who came together with Xiao Bao.
In this current situation where the palace was split into two sides, Feng Fendai chose to come to Jing Ci Palace to greet the Empress. This explained one question, even if the Fifth Prince was not on the Ninth Prince’s side, at least he did not ally with Eighth Prince. Because once the Fifth Prince became close to the Eighth Prince, the destination of this Feng Fendai would definitely be Cun Shan Palace.
These two people, one big and one small, entered the hall, with Fendai being the main one to bow to the Empress and say her greetings. That Xiao Bao did not know many things, Fendai taught him how to kneel down after much effort, but he did not understand what was kowtowing, and only followed Fendai’s actions. His round body did not kneel steadily and fell to the ground just like a round ball, making others feel that he was likeable.
The Empress quickly asked Fang Yi to help the child up, then told Fendai: “Stand up! Feng Family’s Young Miss has showed such sincerity.” Then she looked at that child, saying: “I heard this is your younger brother, since you bought him into the palace, then watch over him properly, just don’t let him be mischievous and cause trouble.” The Empress did not have any good impression of Feng Fendai, but had a clear understanding of that child’s origin, so did not have much feelings of pity and was even a little angrier at Feng Fendai. The palace was already like this, but she still brought a child to participate in the imperial banquet, was she thinking that things were not messy enough?
Fendai also knew that the Empress disliked her. Similarly, she did not like the Empress, but when comparing the Empress and Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu, she simply disliked Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu more, so she chose to head towards Jing Ci Palace. In addition, greeting the Empress was righteous and reasonable, what was that Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu considered?
She looked around her, pulling Xiao Bao and walked around the edge, and stopped in front of Xiangrong, then looking at Xiangrong for a while, she spoke with a hint of loneliness: “Third Sister looks well, it seems like you’re spending your days well. Ji An Prefecture is a place where people raise each other, you’re probably living a rather good life with Mistress An Shi!”
She was her usual sarcastic self when she spoke, but Xiangrong could hear that her words contained some envy. However, she also knew that Fendai’s current life is considered good, so she said: “Fourth younger sister is too modest, aren’t you living very well too! His Highness the Fifth Prince treats you well, you should treasure it. Currently, Fourth younger sister has the mansion to yourself. In the mansion, you’re the only one making the decisions, it’s a carefree life. Master of the house, engagement with a prince, your childhood dreams have been fulfilled, I am happy for you.”
“Third sister, stop picking only the good things to say.” Feng Fendai did not look happy at all, and only said: “Humans are like this, when things are not obtained, they desire it every day, but when they finally obtain it, they don’t know what’s so good about it.” She said expressionlessly, then after saying this, she pushed Xiao Bao gently forward, saying: “Xiao Bao, call her Third sister.”
Currently, the young child had become chubbier and developed, he was not as dark as before and looked much better than when he was young. He looked up towards Xiangrong for a while, then called out obediently: “Third sister.”
Xiangrong was a kind girl, she originally had no positive feelings towards this child. After all he was a child Han Shi obtained from stealing a man, causing the Feng family to lose face. But those were matters of the past, currently, the “Feng Family” had been cut off from the world and those past grudges have gradually faded away over time. In addition, he was just a child. The one who made mistakes were his parents, he was not at fault.
With an “Ei”, a smile appeared on Xiangrong’s face and she reached out to pinch the child’s cheeks, feeling that being chubby was really cute. Since this child addressed her as Third sister, she thought that it was not good not to give something, so she started to search her person. Unfortunately, she was not a princess like Xuan Tiange, who could pull out quality things and was even more not like the god-like Feng Yuheng who had a Space where she could pull out items anytime. She searched everywhere, and other than accessories, she really did not have anything else.
But accessories were to be given to girls! This chubby child was still so young, she could not give him a jade bracelet worn by ladies, and giving a hairpin was even worse, so she felt awkward for a moment.
Fendai saw that Xiangrong was hard-pressed and did not blame her, only saying: “You don’t need to give him a greeting gift, he doesn’t lack anything.” Saying this, she turned her head and looked at Feng Yuheng sitting beside Xiangrong and called out without being prompted to: “Second Sister.”
Without waiting for Feng Yuheng to reply, Xiao Bao ran up and being close to Feng Yuheng, he called out without prompting: “Older sis, older sis.” Then jumped over to hug Feng Yuheng’s leg.
Fendai did not know whether to laugh or cry, only saying: “In the end, you raised him for some time, this child is closer to you than to me.” Saying this, she walked up and pulled Xiao Bao’s hand, saying softly: “Xiao Bao, Second sister is busy, let’s not bother Second sister. Let’s go, older sister will bring you to eat fruit.” After saying this, she forcefully pulled Xiao Bao, who was reluctant to leave Feng Yuheng and left this area.
Watching that one big and one small figure walking away, she could not help but ask: “Second sister, do you think that Fendai grew old? She’s no longer like the domineering girl from a few years ago.”
Feng Yuheng said: “Thinking about too many things, humans would naturally age quickly. It’s not just Fendai who has grown old, me, you, all of us are no longer who we were in the past.”
As they spoke, a palace staff entered the hall from outside, came in front of the Empress, bowed and said: “Informing Your Highness the Empress, at the Jade Hall, His Majesty and Her Highness Yuan Shu have taken their seats. This Servant then came to Jing Ci Palace to invite you over!”
With one sentence, the Empress did not react much, but Xuan Tiange disliked it, asking on reflex: “Why did the Emperor and Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu take their seats first? Which country’s rule is this? The Empress is still sitting here, since when is it Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu’s turn to go first with the Emperor in this sort of event?”
That palace staff quickly spoke: “Please calm down, Princess Wuyang, all of this was arranged by His Majesty, This Servant is only responsible for passing the message, This Servant hopes that Princess would not give me too much trouble.”
Xuan Tiange scoffed coldly and did not say anything else. In fact, in the past, when she spoke in the palace, no one would dare to prevaricate in such a tone, but it was truly different now. But it made sense after thinking about it, the mother of the nation, the Empress, had fallen to this state. She was only the Princess of a royal family, how did that count for anything?
The Empress did not say anything else and led everyone towards Jade Palace, and Feng Yuheng was pulled to her side to accompany her. On the way there, she said softly to Feng Yuheng: “Ah-Heng, can you find a way to ask Imperial Concubine Yun to leave Winter Moon Palace? This One thinks that the Emperor’s illness has moments of good and bad. Last night he suddenly remembered Zhang Yuan, that’s why he was taken out of the Department of Guilty Servants. This One is thinking, Imperial Concubine Yun has been in the Emperor’s heart for so many years, it is possible that once she shows herself, the Emperor would remember everything in the past, and will not be this muddle-headed anymore.”
Listening to the Empress’ words, Feng Yuheng sighed inwardly while feeling troubled. Imperial Concubine Yun was not even in the palace now, how can they talk about appearing to see the Emperor! But she could not say this to the Empress directly. After all, Imperial Concubine Yun leaving the palace was a secret and could not be known by anyone in the palace. Therefore, she only said: “Father Emperor’s symptoms are very tricky, it is not that simple as remembering a person after seeing them. Ah-Heng can understand Your Highness the Empress’ feelings, but if Father Emperor can really remember Zhang Yuan and continue to do so after that, then Zhang Yuan would not be at your side now, right?”
She did hit the nail on the head, and the Empress no longer had anything else to say. The Emperor’s illness being sometimes good and sometimes bad is a fact, almost chasing Zhang Yuan back to the Department of Guilty Servants was also a fact, if Imperial Concubine Yun appeared and ended up like this, Imperial Concubine Yun might be in danger as well. She became fearful after this, regretting the fact that she raised this idea. It was lucky that Feng Yuheng did not agree, else she would have likely harmed Imperial Concubine Yun.
And currently, Feng Yuheng was thinking of something else. That day when she moved the Emperor into her Space to do a full physical examination, the results had came out a long time ago, but there were no abnormalities. Even the black line which had appeared in the Emperor’s chest did not reveal any problems. It was as if the black line was only drawn on the skin. But Feng Yuheng knew very well that the line was not on the skin, but within the blood and muscle.
Problems could not be found with the most scientific methods, that was the unique point of Gu infliction. But because of this, as a divine doctor from the future, she was unable to do anything about this illness. Did they really have to find a Miao villager? But, where do they find one?
Everyone had their own thoughts and they finally reached Jade Hall. Looking up, Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu and the Emperor were already sitting side by side, toasting their cups, looking just like a loving couple. Today, Imperial Concubine Yuan Shu put a lot of thought into her clothes, purple red court clothing, looking completely majestic, even an eastern pearl was hanging on her head ornament, giving her an oppressive aura.
Xuan Tiange was unhappy again, mumbling softly: “Why is she sitting on the Empress’ seat?”
Feng Tianyu said: “I heard that there will be a huge announcement during today’s banquet, could it be……”
