Ferocious Princess

"Let's go!" Fei Yan quickly arrived in front of the maidservant and called out to him.

The maidservant saw that Fei Yan was so quick and slightly nodded her head in appreciation, but she followed Fei Yan back.

"This servant greets Fifth Wife." Fei Yan bowed respectfully. There was a gentle smile on his face.

Fifth Wife laughed, then left and right.

Fei Yan's expression was normal as she looked at the Fifth Wife calmly and naturally, but in her heart, she was secretly guessing the reason the Fifth Wife had called him over.

Fifth Wife was already used to Fei Yan's attitude, it was neither warm nor angry, and she was calm and impatient.

"Fei Yan, do you know why I have come to find you today?" Looking at Fei Yan, Fifth Wife's eyes were full of scrutiny.

Fei Yan shook her head, and a cold voice came out, "This servant doesn't dare to presume to know Master's intentions, Fifth Wife must have come here for Fei Yan because of something!" Fei Yan thought that she was not an immortal, so how could she know what the Fifth Wife was thinking? Fei Yan was not sure for now.

Fifth Wife did not mind Fei Yan's reply, she intentionally looked behind the screen, and continued with a smile: I called you here, it's just a casual chat, there's no need to be so nervous.

With that, Fifth Wife paid special attention to Fei Yan's expression, she wanted to find out some clues, but realised that she was overthinking, or else Fei Yan would really cover up, she was still able to remain calm and motionless like Mt. Tai.

"Then please feel free to say it!" Fei Yan spread out her smile that was as gentle as waves and spoke leisurely.

"Fei Yan, you said that this choice is very important, right?" Fifth Wife casually said as she held a flower in her hand and her eyes fell on the petal that was about to be torn off.

Fei Yan stared at the flower in Fifth Wife's hands, frowned, and said in a very calm tone: "Of course, after living for many years, there are countless of choices available. There are some choices that you can make, and some choices that you are truly forced to make, Fifth Wife, what say you!" As Fei Yan said this, she clearly saw the flower petals on Fifth Wife's hand being snapped in the middle.

She knew she had hit the nail on the head.

Fifth Wife did not expect that Fei Yan's words would be so accurate and sharp, and the gaze she looked at Fei Yan with was filled with unprecedented attention.

"Yeah, a lot of these choices are like gambling. They might win beautifully, or they might lose miserably! Does this mean we can only resign ourselves to fate! " Fifth Wife once again plucked the flower petals, her mind had calmed down, and her hands were no longer at a loss.

Fei Yan never thought that the Fifth Wife would have such an idea, but she felt that the two of them were testing each other out eye to eye, and she didn't know how long it would take.

"This servant feels that I should try my best to live up to my own heart, as long as it is my conscience!" It's fine to complete your choice, but don't involve the innocent. This way, you can at least live in your own world for the rest of your life. In fact, Fei Yan's words were directed towards the person behind the screen, and of course, it was to the Fifth Wife that she wanted to remind him. From the look of the Fifth Wife's eyes just now, Fei Yan had already faintly felt the aura coming from behind the screen, even though it was very weak and it was purposely used to conceal it, but Fei Yan had still detected it with her current recovery rate.

This was the first time that the Fifth Madam felt pressured and suppressed her spirit. The Fifth Madam changed the topic and tried to attack again," Fei Yan, you and Auntie Niu are relying on each other now, right? I think you're not young anymore, don't you have any ideas?

Fei Yan looked at the scattered petals on the ground, and her drooping eyes became exceptionally clear and determined, "Although this servant can't be considered as pretty as Hua Jiao, but I am also unable to compare to Madam in terms of looks and family matters. This servant only wants to find a single person, and will protect them together.

"Then, if I were to introduce you to a good marriage and you follow me, you will naturally allow Aunt Niu to live a good life. What do you think?" The Fifth Wife very quickly made use of Fei Yan's wish and stated her condition.

Fei Yan laughed in her heart, so this was the Fifth Wife's goal, after making such a detour, it was finally time for her to share her thoughts, "Thank you Fifth Wife for raising me, but actually, I am not in a hurry to eat or wear, and with someone like Fifth Wife treating me so well, this servant is already satisfied, this servant only hopes that Fifth Wife can enjoy happiness to the fullest, and not cause others to be confused, and will not have his own troubles!" Fei Yan noticed that the Fifth Wife did not know that she had discovered the secret relationship between her and Sir Ming Zhe, but he did not know if it was because of the lady behind the screen. Logically speaking, she should be considered to be following the First Madam, so the person behind should be the Second Madam.

In her eyes, Fifth Wife had always been a woman who never ate human beings, but suddenly becoming like this, like Second Madam, she did not know if she could be considered to have become dirty, and every time she thought of elegance, Fei Yan would not be able to resolve the pain in her heart, and she would make him regret it little by little.

After hearing what Fei Yan said, the look in Fifth Wife's eyes changed. She looked at Fei Yan with a kind of scrutiny and a little fear. That... But if it was her, why was the First Madam still so calm? Could it be that she had a plan?

Seeing that the Fifth Wife was silent, the atmosphere in the room became extremely tense. Fei Yan smiled, and looking at the Fifth Wife, she asked with a hint of anticipation: "Fifth Wife, Fei Yan is very curious about the type of tea that the previous time, smelled so beautiful, I wonder if this servant will be lucky enough to get a first grade tea?"

Why was Fei Yan so curious about the tea? She really did discover something just to taste the tea, she clearly remembered that Xiao Cui had poured the tea out.

Fifth Wife tried to think of a way to lie. She only had so little tea, if she took it out, it would naturally be spilled.

"Hehe, it's such a coincidence that you came here. The last time, the little girl accidentally wet the tea. Aren't you going to call her out and bring it back to bask in the sunlight? I'll call you over when it's dry!" Fifth Wife laughed with ease and elegance. If one did not carefully observe, they would not notice her uneasy hands at all.

Fei Yan smiled, and did not make it difficult for her, "Fifth Wife is overthinking it, I am only looking forward to making Fifth Wife waste time like this, I am truly grateful!"

After the two of them passed the topic, there didn't seem to be any more superfluous words. They chatted for a bit before reaching the end point.

"Elder sister, you saw it right? I never thought that this Fei Yan would be so hard to deal with!" Fifth Wife greeted the screen after seeing Fei Yan leave.

The Second Madam came out from the screen, her eyes revealed a bit of anger, Fei Yan's words just now was obviously not directed at her, but at her, could it be that she knew something?

"Sometimes, if we can't save the handsome one, then we can only lose our troops. We even have to give up our troops. It's best not to pose a threat to us, otherwise …" Second Madam's twisted face carried a strange smile. The flower in her hand was crushed into pieces, just like her current appearance.

"Deal?" Fifth Wife looked at Second Madam in disbelief. Although she felt that Fei Yan was clever enough to scare her, if she became an enemy, it would definitely be terrifying, but she never thought that she would be so vicious like what Second Madam said. She had always been unwilling to stand on the side of a bloody person.

"Your methods have already injured innocent people. If you want to obtain what you truly want, then you have to pay the price, and even crawl over the corpses of others!" The Second Madam clenched her fist and looked into the distance with a taunting and ruthless expression as she spoke in a domineering manner.

Facing such a Second Madam, the Fifth Wife felt so guilty that she shivered. She was suddenly afraid of the outcome of this war.

Leaving the Fifth Wife Courtyard, Fei Yan felt relieved. She actually didn't like this feeling at all, it was depressing and scheming. Relatively speaking, she liked being with Xiao Cui more, the carefree expression that Xiao Cui gave her.

From afar, she seemed to have seen a person following National Lord Wei towards that mysterious courtyard. Fei Yan was a little doubtful, wasn't National Lord Wei supposed to be outside right now?

Fei Yan knew about this, because the First Madam would tell Fei Yan that her trust in Fei Yan had already reached an extremely high level.

Fei Yan wanted to follow along, but discovered that she had just taken a step, the two of them looked around vigilantly, for safety's sake, it looked like they could only explore the place again.

"Fei Yan, I heard that Fifth Wife has come looking for you today?" First Madam was really well-informed. Fei Yan had only been there for a short while, she never thought that First Madam would already know about it.

"Yes, this servant and Fifth Wife just chatted for a while!" Fei Yan didn't hide anything and answered seriously.

"What did she tell you? You haven't gone to find her yet, but she has instead come to find you! " First Madam gave a gentle smile, but she was not surprised at all.

"Fifth Wife didn't say anything? She and this servant made a big circle, as if she was hoping this servant would help her! " Fei Yan replied to the First Madam seriously.

"Oh?" Hearing Fei Yan's words, the First Madam was a little surprised, but she immediately frowned and thought for a moment, then guessed worriedly: "Say, do you think she will be in cahoots with the Second Madam?"

Although there was still a questioning tone, it was enough for Fei Yan to admire First Madam's shrewdness, "First Madam's guess is right, this servant sensed someone in Fifth Wife's room today. However, that person was hiding behind the door, as if he didn't want this servant to know her identity! This servant only guessed that it might be the Second Madam! " Although Fei Yan could not be sure, her words were obvious, after all, the only people Fei Yan knew were these few ladies, and the other wives did not have the guts to challenge him.

"Hm!" I know, if it's true... Sigh, forget it. Later on, I will find my dear cousin and ask him about it! " First Madam sighed sadly, and rubbed her forehead in distress, "However, I haven't had that tea with Fifth Wife lately, so I like it a little. I'll get her to make some for me some other day, and you can try it yourself.

The First Madam's words were true, but this made Fei Yan more cautious. Next time, she would be able to understand what exactly it was like.
