As soon as she entered the courtyard, Feng Yaohua saw a person lying at the entrance. His back was covered in mottled blood and he was crying out continuously in pain.

"I was wondering who it was. So it was Miss Feng Xuefeng." Feng Yaohua sneered and knelt beside her.

Feng Xue had suffered greatly today and had nowhere to vent her anger on. She wanted to vent it on Feng Yaohua, but when she looked into Feng Yaohua's calm eyes, her entire body suddenly shrank.

"Servant, this servant doesn't dare to tarry. I'll rush back to serve Fifth Miss." Feng Xue flattered.

"At least you have some filial piety. Stand up." Feng Yaohua walked around Feng Xue and entered the dilapidated courtyard.

Feng Xue followed him in limping. Seeing that Feng Yaohua was starting to clear the house herself, she rushed over to help.

The broken teapot fell to the ground with a bang and shattered into a pile of debris.

Just as Feng Xue was about to kneel down and pick up the pieces, she heard Feng Yaohua say sinisterly, "Wait, who told you to touch my teapot? That teapot was given to my mother by the late Emperor.

"The mansion's rules are obviously the same …" Feng Xue retorted loudly, but Feng Yaohua easily pinched her swollen and red wrist.

The pain of being dislocated once again struck her heart. Feng Xue trembled, but she refused to accept it. If it weren't for the fifty taels of silver that Eldest Miss Feng Qingyu gave her to stay by Feng Yaohua's side, she wouldn't have come back.

"If I say it's the late emperor's reward, then it's the late emperor's reward. Otherwise, find evidence to refute me." Feng Yaohua turned around and sat on the low stool as she spoke in a slow and unhurried manner.

Feng Xue felt her teeth ache as she thought, "I really can't find it."

Just as she was about to retort, she saw Feng Yaohua pull out a silver note from her sleeve and put it on the dice. The dice were placed on the table and rotated.

"Tell me, if I sue the madame for gathering people to gamble, what will the old lady do to you?" Feng Yaohua casually said as she fiddled with the dice.

"If you don't know, then I'll tell you. The last one was a wet nurse who was chopped off and chased out. Later on, someone saw her fighting with wild dogs for food by the roadside."

"The last one was attendant. He was also kicked out. Later on, someone saw him die by the river. Tsk tsk, I heard he couldn't do anything and starved to death."

Feng Yaohua made it up that even she didn't believe her own lies, but it was all because of Feng Xue.

Feng Xue's hand began to tremble. Feng Yaohua took the opportunity to say, "Also, I'll teach you a good lesson today. This servant will be able to stand firmly on a team, until the master becomes famous. If you change your mind, I'm afraid both masters will want to get rid of the servant and get to the bottom of this."

Feng Xue was a young girl, and she had thought too little about many things. Having been told by Fifth Miss, she broke out in a cold sweat, as she suddenly realized that the young miss was the direct descendant of Miss after all, and the most she could do for her was just a little bit of silver. But Fifth Miss was not the same, after seeing Fifth Miss's abilities, if she followed Fifth Miss, wouldn't she be able to have a close friend, maidservant?

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Feng Yaohua sneered in her heart. There was no need to think anymore about maidservant, the big boss. She already had a candidate in mind.

"You've figured it out?"

"I understand. Fifth Miss, your servant will give you the fifty silver taels first." Feng Xue pushed the banknotes in front of Feng Yaohua with a slobbering expression. If she had a tail, she would probably make a flower out of it.

With Feng Xue's help, Feng Yaohua and Shaoqing left the mansion through the horned gate.

It was currently curfew time, and the only sound was of people calling out for their candles to be careful.

In the palace banquet seven days later, she knew that with Feng Qingyu's personality, she would definitely make a fool of herself with her clothes. Thus, she had no choice but to go out and buy some clothes and accessories.

Her body was still weak. She nimbly dodged the patrolling guards and rushed into an alley. At the end of the alley was the Tian Yi Pavilion. It was her destination.

With her head down, she dove into someone's arms. It was the smell of cedar.

Not good, if someone discovered that she was out during the curfew, she would have to take the lead even if she could not eat. She lowered her body in an attempt to slip away, but someone suddenly grabbed her collar.

"Where to?"

A melodious voice rang in his ears, it was Nangong Chen!

"Take a walk." Feng Yaohua laughed and tried to get away with it.

"Then why don't we go together?" Nangong Chen didn't allow her to refuse at all. He was still holding her collar, obviously not wanting to let her go just like that.

With a bitter face, Feng Yaohua quickly tried to figure out a way to escape. On the other side, Nangong Chen frowned: "Strange."

"What's strange?" Feng Yaohua blurted out.

"This sovereign helped you deduce your fate, but I discovered that you have a dual path in your life. It's truly unheard-of." Nangong Chen's words shocked Feng Yaohua.

This person really had some ability, to actually be able to deduce that she was a reincarnated person, but she immediately thought of an idea, and laughed: "Lord State Advisor is so capable, to actually be able to see through my background, why not let me go first, I will have a good talk with Lord State Advisor first?"

She had thought that Nangong Chen would let go of her hand that was holding onto her collar, but unexpectedly, Nangong Chen's bright eyes shone with a gentle light under the moonlight. He stared straight into her eyes, causing her to sink into a quagmire.

"No." He flatly refused: "If you let go, my little phoenix will fly away."

Pui! You are shouting so disgustingly, who is your Little Phoenix?

"Otherwise, I will call the imperial guards who are patrolling the city and lock you in the Sky Prison. That way, you won't be able to fly away."

Imprisoning him in the Sky Prison? No.

Feng Yaohua imitated Feng Xue's actions and begged for mercy with a flattering smile, "If you can't let it go, then don't let it go. Ever since I've gotten seriously ill, an immortal has been teaching me every night."

"Oh?" Nangong Chen's perfectly shaped eyebrows twitched, as if he was a bit interested.

Feng Yaohua continued her efforts, "For example, the usually obscure prince of the Cold Palace, Helian Lin, will suddenly rebel and ascend to the throne after twenty-eight years of his longevity …" She tried to search her mind for useful information for the next few years, trying to get some information from Nangong Chen.

After talking for a while, her mouth was already dry. She raised her head and saw Nangong Chen looking at her with a smile.

How beautiful! No wonder Nangong Chen was the dream lover of thousands of young girls in the capital. She swallowed her saliva and suddenly became bold. "Why don't you accept me as your disciple? I will definitely not disgrace you."

The calculations in her heart crackled. If she were to become Nangong Chen's disciple, then she could do whatever she wanted with her Xiwu Country.

"Oh?" Nangong Chen did not deny it. Just as she was about to continue trying to persuade him, she heard him say softly: "This is obviously not deduction, but you went through another trial, right?"

Feng Yaohua was so scared by his words that she broke out in a cold sweat, only to hear him chuckle.

He was actually being played around with.

Another person thought to himself that he hadn't met such an interesting person in a long time.
