Abandoned Women: The First Secret Service Concubine

Chapter 157

Like whiplash, still fresh.

Feng Yao narrowed her eyes and asked in a low voice: "Miss Qing'er, I don't know why the princess called me?"

Qing'er said: "Mother Fengxiu will know when she arrives." The voice is so thin and small that you can hardly hear it if you don't pay attention.

Feng Yao's eyes flickered, but she didn't ask again.

Not long after, we came to Yongning Hall.

Murong Xi'er was sitting on the couch, playing with a long whip, her eyes were slightly lowered, her bright face exuded a deep gloom.

At the foot, the court lady Ju'er knelt on the ground, lowered her head and carefully beat Murong Xi'er's leg.The entire hall was filled with a depressing atmosphere.

"Feng Xiu Niang has brought it." Qing'er stood still in the hall, bowed her head and replied.

Only then did Murong Xier raise her head.

Fengyao blessed her body and said: "Princess Wanfu."

"Hey, you're smart." Murong Xi'er said, the gloom on his face dissipated a bit, but the next sentence was: "Kneel down!"

Feng Yao wanted to divert like yesterday, but Murong Xi'er would not accept this trick at all: "You escaped yesterday, and you still want to escape today? I have never kneeled and saluted when no one saw my princess!"

"Really?" Feng Yao raised her head and looked straight over.

Murong Xi'er didn't expect Feng Yao to be so bold, so she snorted coldly: "Yes, but they are all dead." He changed his posture and sat down, and said: "Those who refuse to kneel to me are those with official titles in their families. But you are strange, you are just a commoner, who gave you the courage to dare to do this?"

Today you are so rude to me, another day I will tell you to call me Aunt Huang!Feng Yao thought, and said in her mouth: "It's not because I don't kneel. It's because the princess didn't push me to that extent."

Murong Xi'er was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing: "Oh? Then, how can I push you to that extent?"

"I don't know either." Feng Yao tilted her head and said, with a hint of cunning in her eyes.

Murong Xi'er snorted: "If you don't tell me, this princess will punish you!"

"Perhaps, the princess can ask someone to drag me down and give me a hard time. Maybe if you hit me, I will soften?" Feng Yao thought for a while and said.

Murong Xi'er leaned back leisurely: "That's a good idea."

Feng Yao's expression darkened, and she said: "I knelt down before my parents, my master, the magistrate, and even my enemies. Maybe it's because I knelt a lot, and I don't like kneeling more and more in recent years." Said When I got here, I smiled, "If the princess can cure my disease, Feng Yao will thank you here." She cupped her fists and bowed down.

Murong Xi'er pushed aside Ju'er, got up from the couch, and walked towards Feng Yao.Pulled out the whip from the back of his waist, walked around Feng Yao, and began to look around.

"You are interesting." Murong Xi'er flicked his whip, "I have never seen such a bold and frank person like you."

Those I have seen in the past are those who are angry but dare not speak out, and who would rather die than surrender.Either they are cautious and dare not say a word.Either it's flattery, and I don't want the slightest bit of shame.

Like Fengyao, she straightened her spine and said the most frank words in her heart, taking retreat as advance and advancing as retreat, but I have never seen it before.

"Crack!" Murong Xi'er flicked the whip, and it hit the marble floor with a resounding sound.

Feng Yao straightened her waist, folded her hands in front of her body, lowered her eyes, and there was nothing strange on her face.

Murong Xi'er was even more curious: "Aren't you from a peasant woman? How did you develop such courage?"

Feng Yao smiled and replied: "Princess probably doesn't know, I was not like this before."

"Oh?" Murong Xi'er couldn't help feeling a little interested, "Speak."

Feng Yao said: "I used to be cowardly. I was an abandoned baby. I heard that when my adoptive parents picked me up, I was only a few days old and almost died..."

Therefore, Feng Yao told the story of how the family of Zhu Shi and Song Ruhai bullied Feng Shi in the past.

"After being abandoned by Shen Yunzhi, I took my son to live in the old house at the end of the village. Because I was good-looking, I was often bullied by men. Over time, I developed my current temper. Anyway, if I don't get tough, others will not only Bullying me, and bullying my son." Feng Yao was not afraid of wasting time, and told all the stories one by one.

After hearing this, Murong Xi'er fell silent.The whip in his hand stopped dancing vigorously, and he put it away and wrapped it around his waist, a strange light flashed in his eyes for a moment.

Feng Yao is a smart person.

Murong Xi'er likes smart people.

"Are you willing to do things with me? If you follow me wholeheartedly, it doesn't matter if I clean up Shen Yunzhi for you." Murong Xi'er said.

When Feng Yao heard this, she couldn't help being surprised: "The princess praised me so much, I am very at a loss."

"But you don't have to be at a loss." Murong Xi'er turned and walked back to the couch, "You are a smart person, and there are many things a smart person wants to do. Without a strong backing, there are countless obstacles in the road ahead. I can clear the obstacles for you , how about you follow me?"

After hearing this, Feng Yao's heart was filled with regret.If she had known this before, she would have knelt obediently from the very beginning, so why bother to make Murong Xi'er think highly of her?This is good, it's even harder to get out.

"You don't want to?" Murong Xi'er is such a perceptive person, seeing that Feng Yao didn't thank her immediately, her face that was originally smiling like a peach blossom suddenly became gloomy.

"It is my honor to be able to serve the princess." Feng Yao said, "It's just—forgive me for my boldness, I am willing to do anything for the princess, even if I die. However, it is not as a servant."

Murong Xi'er couldn't help squinting her eyes, but suddenly raised her leg and kicked away Ju'er who was beating her leg: "Stand back!"

Ju'er didn't dare to make a sound, and stepped back quickly, covering her shoulders that had been kicked hot.In the main hall, only Murong Xi'er and Feng Yao were left.

"What did you mean by what you said just now?" Murong Xi'er stopped lazily lying on the couch, sat up and said in a deep voice.With the blood of the royal family, she inherited most of the emperor's temper. Murong Xi'er, who grew up arrogant and pampered, has the majesty of the royal family when she is serious.

Feng Yao was not afraid, and said solemnly: "As the princess said, I have a lot of things to do. And I don't have any power behind me, so when I talk to people about business, I always suffer. If the princess is my backer, then The road ahead of me will be much smoother. In order to repay the princess, I will do my best to share her worries and problems."

Murong Xi'er narrowed her eyes and said coldly: "Be more frank."

Feng Yao laughed: "I want to be friends and partners with the princess, but I don't want to be master and servant."

"Sure enough!" Murong Xi'er patted the table and said sharply: "You are just a commoner, how dare you threaten to be friends and partners with this princess?"

"Then, what kind of person does the princess want to be a friend and a partner?" Feng Yao was not afraid, she raised her head and asked back.

Murong Xi'er couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then said coldly: "This princess doesn't need friends!"

"No, everyone needs friends." Feng Yao said, "The difference between a friend and a servant is that if you are injured, sick, or unhappy. The servant must be worried about you because he is afraid that he will not be able to serve you. , suffered a disaster; while friends worry about you, they are purely worried about you, trying their best to make you better, without asking for anything in return."

"Could it be that the princess all her life wants to be surrounded by a group of cowardly and humble servants who serve you tremblingly every day, and what she does is essentially for herself?"

As soon as these words came out, Murong Xi'er's expression became even more gloomy.

Feng Yao stood in the hall, raised her head without flinching, and looked at her steadfastly.

"My princess has a noble status, so I just want to find friends, not a little peasant woman like you." After a long while, Murong Xi'er said gloomily.

Feng Yao smiled: "If the princess can find someone who is smarter, more lively than me, and will make you happy."

Murong Xi'er's face became even more gloomy.Holding the table with one hand, tapping the table lightly with his fingertips, he met Feng Yao's eyes.Thinking about Feng Yao's words and deeds after entering the palace, bold and aggressive, gradually, the gloom on her face disappeared. With a "puchi", he laughed: "That's right, there is no one who is smarter and more funny than you."

"Friend", this word sounds fresh.Murong Xi'er stood up and said with a smile: "Come on, friend, let's go to the garden with this princess."

Feng Yao smiled and said, "I haven't seen the royal garden yet, what kind of flowers are there?"

The two walked out of the Yongning Palace one after the other, called the maids and eunuchs who were not far away, and rubbed their eyes vigorously in shock.

Only Feng Yao knew how dangerous she was just now.

For Murong Xi'er, who has a bad temper, Feng Yao managed to coax him into a sweat.It's nothing but a pretense to say nothing about death, to worry about the princess, and to be happy with the princess.To be friends with members of the imperial family, Murong Xi'er dared, but Feng Yao did not.

However, although Murong Xi'er was cruel, she was still in her teenage years, so she was more curious.Feng Yao coaxed her, and she could handle it for a while.

In particular, Murong Xi'er is talented and intelligent, which made Feng Yao love talents.Murong Xi'er took Feng Yao out of Yongning Palace, and walked all the way in the direction of the Imperial Garden.Along the way, talking and laughing.The palace people were stunned all the time, and they all looked at Feng Yao strangely, where did this magical figure come from?

There is nothing new in the palace.Soon, this scene spread to the ears of the masters of all palaces and halls.Murong Xi'er's mother concubine, Concubine Xu Gui of Yutang Palace also got the news.Hearing that Fengyao is a folk embroiderer who makes high-heeled shoes for her daughter, she smiled: "This woman is a talent, with Xi'er's intelligence, she will be able to subdue her."

The imperial garden, rockery pool, exotic flowers and plants, all of which are magnificent and beautiful.When Feng Yao traveled, she saw the gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, and they were so beautiful.So at this time, I am not so surprised by this pleasing royal garden.

Of course, in order to maintain Murong Xi'er's royal nobility, Feng Yao appropriately expressed some admiration: "As expected of a royal garden, these flowers have withered in the folk, but they still bloom just right here."

Murong Xi'er felt good, nodded and smiled slightly: "That's natural. The imperial palace is a place where the world's spiritual energy gathers. Under the nourishment of dragon energy, these flowers and trees will naturally grow well."

Feng Yao pursed her lips inwardly, but said enviously on her face: "I am lucky to see you today, it is really worth living."

"Puchi!" Murong Xi'er was so clever, how could she not guess that Feng Yao was trying to coax her, but since someone was willing to coax her, and she was in a good mood, she just listened.Eyeballs rolled around, but said: "What if you are told to live here every day?"

Feng Yao was startled immediately, and hurriedly said: "Princess, don't make things difficult for me, I have such a rough temper, don't ruin this good place."
