"Princess." Lightning bowed respectfully towards Feng Yu.
"Lightning? Why are you here? " Feng Yu asked with a puzzled tone.
"Reporting to wangfei, this subordinate has some matters to handle. After passing by, I coincidentally saw wangfei and Young Prince playing here."
"Heh heh ~ ~" Sigh, why are you alone today? What are you going to do? " Feng Yu thought back to his actions just now and awkwardly smiled. He immediately changed the topic and asked.
"Ah …" "Nothing much, just now His Highness sent his subordinate to investigate something." Lightning was caught off guard by Feng Yu's sudden question. She paused for a moment before speaking.
Feng Yu replied with a heavy "Oh ~". Just as she was about to continue, Lightning suddenly interrupted her by saying, "Royal Concubine, your subordinate won't be staying any longer. I'll take my leave first!" He then hastily saluted and left.
After turning around, he took a deep breath as lightning struck him. It was fortunate that he had escaped quickly, otherwise, he would not have known how to reply to the wangfei. Feng Yu thought: Just now, from the Princess' words, I found out that the Battle King didn't tell her, so it's better not to say too much.
Feng Yu froze on the spot, thinking to herself, just what is going on here? What is hiding from me? How annoying! Looking at the departing figure of Lightning's back, Feng Yu suddenly discovered that this direction was very familiar. It seemed to be the direction of the Imperial Palace. Feng Yu closed her eyes and tried to search for memories. Sure enough! Lightning was heading for the palace!
In other words, Xuanyuan Zhan was still in the palace? It was almost noon, why was Xuanyuan Zhan still in the palace? What did Lightning just say about the investigation... Feng Yu was suddenly enlightened. Right now, there was only one possible reason, and that was that the old emperor must have handed over the matter of tracking the blood bead to Xuanyuan Zhan!
Feng Yu thought to herself: To think that this old man, the emperor, would treat Xuanyuan Zhan like a glutton, even before he died.
I really want to give him a good beating!
After they returned in the afternoon, Feng Yu thought about it and thought about it, but still decided to return to the Battle King Manor. She went back to Feng Haotian's room, and when she arrived a long distance away, she heard Second Aunt's shrill laughter, and just as she stepped into the room, she coincidentally saw Feng Haotian lying on Second Aunt's stomach. Second Aunt's eyes were squinted from happiness.
As Feng Yu looked at Second Aunt's greasy face, she couldn't help but feel disgusted in her heart. This Second Aunt was really amazing, even when she was having an affair with the butler, she was actually able to make love with Feng Haotian in such a way. Feng Yu helplessly shook her head, and realized that they still hadn't discovered their presence, so she coughed lightly two times. When Feng Haotian and Second Aunt saw Feng Yu walk in, they immediately stopped their expressions and sat up straight.
"Sorry to bother you, I came here today to bid farewell to General Feng. Battle King Manor still has some matters that he needs me to take care of when I return, so I've come to thank General Feng and Second Madam for taking care of me!" Feng Yu looked at Feng Haotian and said extremely politely.
Although Feng Haotian didn't know whether or not he was his daughter, his personality was no different from the dead Feng Yu. Remembering Feng Yu's death six years ago, Feng Haotian felt a little guilty, so he always wanted to make up for his guilt with regards to this Feng Yu in front of him. However, he was worried about her identity.
"Ah ~ So it's like this. Since you have matters to attend to, I won't keep you any longer. However, as long as you want to stay longer in the future, you can come and stay no matter how long …"
When Feng Haotian said that, the Second Aunt who was standing beside him, reached out and pinched his back hard. However, he still fawned on him with a smile: "Yes ~ yes ~"
Feng Yu had already seen through the little tricks behind their backs, but she still smiled as if nothing had happened and left.
This smile came from the bottom of her heart. She had always felt that it was a taboo to fear Feng Yu and treat her like a thorn in her side. Second Aunt thought to herself: Hmph, I was looking for an opportunity to chase that damned girl out of the Feng Residence.
When he returned to his room, Feng Yu packed his things and took Dou Dou and Wan Er back to Battle King Manor with him. Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Zhan and the others had not returned yet, and the sky was about to turn dark.
Not long after he returned, he heard a servant report that Xuanyuan Zhan had returned. Feng Yu hurried to the front hall to take a look, and sure enough, Xuanyuan Zhan was sitting at the table tiredly, not saying a word.
"What, is there any trouble?" Feng Yu stepped forward and asked with concern.
Xuanyuan Zhan was a little shocked upon hearing Feng Yu's voice, thinking, why is it that no one has reported on my return? In the blink of an eye, he thinks, I've been inside the Imperial Palace for the entire day, and there's no one who can report this to me?
"Yu Er, when did you return?"
"This afternoon, I didn't see your shadow for an entire day. Dou Dou wanted to look for you to watch the lion dance, so he came back early." Feng Yu couldn't say it out loud because he was worried about Xuanyuan Zhan's words.
"Oh? "Does Yu Er not see this duke for one day now, like three autumns, ah ~" Xuanyuan Zhan wanted to tease Feng Yu when he heard her words.
Feng Yu rolled her eyes at Xuanyuan Zhan, but she did not know why his heart felt so strong, "Why have you been staying in the Imperial Palace today?"
"Sigh, Father has handed over the matter of tracking down the blood droplets to me. Today, I have been investigating in the Imperial Palace all day, so I'm a bit tired." Xuanyuan Zhan closed his eyes and used his hands to gently touch his temples.
Feng Yu thought to herself: It really is as she expected.
"No wonder. Did he encounter some trouble?" Feng Yu walked to Xuanyuan Zhan's side and asked in concern.
"It's nothing major. It can be solved, but I feel a little tired …" Based on his usual mannerism, Xuanyuan Zhan didn't tell Feng Yu, he didn't want to make her worry.
"How can it be so easy to find the thief when the blood is lost? Can we really solve that?" Feng Yu asked Xuanyuan Zhan again with a skeptical attitude.
Feng Yu knew that the matter of the blood bead was not so simple, it wasn't easy to find out, but Xuanyuan Zhan … Feng Yu felt very helpless. Even if she met such a manly person, she wouldn't be able to do anything about it. One must know that this was an ancient era.
"Yes, we can basically confirm the direction of the investigation, so we should be able to investigate it clearly soon, so Yu Er, don't worry, right now you should be worrying about something else!" Xuanyuan Zhan said with a beaming smile, his tone becoming extremely cheerful.
Feng Yu didn't understand, and looked at Xuanyuan Zhan with a puzzled expression, not knowing what Xuanyuan Zhan meant by that.
"As your mother, you actually didn't know that Dou Dou's birthday was coming up!" Xuanyuan Zhan said as he gently tapped Feng Yu's forehead with his hand, his face filled with affection.
Feng Yu suddenly realised when she heard about it. If Xuanyuan Zhan did not say anything, he would have forgotten about it. Feng Yu had been so busy during her stay in the capital that she had forgotten about such an important matter. Feng Yu thought: It seems like Xuanyuan Zhan's birthday had never been mentioned in front of him before, so how did he know about it?
Just as Feng Yu was about to ask, she closed her mouth. This Dou Dou's birthday was the day Feng Yu died six years ago, how could he not remember! Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, seven years had passed since Feng Yu had arrived here. Time flew by in a flash. Thinking of this, Feng Yu secretly decided that she must quickly find out the truth.
"Who said I don't know! Of course I know! " Feng Yu retorted loudly, then turned around so Xuanyuan Zhan would not see her complicated expression.
"Oh ~ Then why didn't I hear you mention it?" Xuanyuan Zhan continued to ask while holding back his laughter as he looked at Feng Yu.
"Why should I tell you!" Feng Yu readjusted his state of mind, and spoke while looking at Xuanyuan Zhan.
This birthday is different from the previous times, because this is the first time I have given Dou Dou a birthday, so we definitely have to make it big! " Xuanyuan Zhan straightened his body and said seriously.
Come to think of it, this was Xuanyuan Zhan's first time giving Dou Dou a birthday. In the past, Feng Yu would always accompany him, but Dou Dou was still very happy and happy. Now that Xuanyuan Zhan was by his side, it was unknown what Dou Dou was thinking.
"I think it's better if it's a little simpler, it used to be just Dou Dou and me, he was also very happy, if we were to do it too big, it would inevitably become too ostentatious, and when the time comes, the scoundrel would take the blame, and things would not be good."
As for women, their minds were more meticulous than men's, and they thought more than men. However, what Feng Yu said was very reasonable. A child's birthday shouldn't be too glorious, it should be as long as it was warm and blissful.
"But I want to give him a different birth date, one that he will never forget!" Xuanyuan Zhan said somewhat excitedly, his eyes filled with a misty fantasy.
"I feel like I can still remember it deeply even with a blissful and happy birthday!"
After an intense discussion between Feng Yu and Xuanyuan Zhan, the final conclusion was reached. However, Feng Yu still decided that she should ask Dou Dou, but Xuanyuan Zhan insisted on stopping Feng Yu, saying that he would give Dou Dou a pleasant surprise. Feng Yu helplessly accepted Xuanyuan Zhan's suggestion, and the two then began to prepare for Dou Dou's birthday.
The next day, Feng Yu woke up very early and went to the Profound King Manor. Just as she entered the courtyard, she saw Xuanyuan Feng, half-naked, training in martial arts, and in her heart, Feng Yu felt a little more respect for the Duke of Xuan. He was still so young, and had so much willpower, and thought about what he was doing when he was twelve years old.
When Duke Xuan saw Feng Yu, he quickly put on his clothes and walked over with a smile. His face was tranquil and relaxed, and he did not look like a twelve year old youth at all. This child from the ancient emperor's family was truly pitiful.
"Sister royal, why have you come here today?" Xuanyuan Zhan took a handkerchief and asked while wiping his sweat.
"Ah, I have come here today to discuss a matter with you …" Feng Yu handed over the meat bun that he bought for Xuanyuan Feng over to him, then said with a mysterious tone.
Seeing that it was actually his favorite meat bun, which he had to buy even if he wanted to, Feng Yu had actually brought it to him personally, and with so much of it, he was satisfied with the meal. When Xuanyuan Zhan saw the meat bun's expression, he immediately displayed a childish expression, causing Feng Yu to unconsciously smile when he saw his happy smile.
Feng Yu watched as Xuanyuan Feng wolfed down the meat bun with oil dripping from his mouth.
"Oh right, Fourth Sister, what did you say you wanted to discuss with Feng Er?" Xuanyuan Feng's mouth was filled with buns, as he stammered.
Feng Yu looked at him and felt that it was really funny. She couldn't make out a single word of the things that they had just said, and Feng Yu waited for Xuanyuan Feng to finish eating before saying, "I want to ask for a favor."
"Fourth Sister, what are you saying? If you have anything to say, just tell Feng Er. Feng Er will do it!" Xuanyuan Feng had finally finished eating. After hearing Feng Yu say this, he used his hand to wipe his mouth and hurriedly said.
"Dou Dou's birthdate is almost here. Your Fourth Brother and I want to prepare a different birthdate for him, give him a surprise!" Feng Yu's eyes were filled with anticipation and fantasy.
"Wow, it's Dou Dou's birthday! Then Feng'er must prepare a huge gift for Dou Dou! However, what does Fourth Sister want Feng'er to do? " Xuanyuan Feng heard. It was actually Dou Dou's birthday that was about to arrive. When she even heard that she was going to give him a pleasant surprise, she became a little excited and continued to ask Feng Yu about her plans …
