The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 127 127. Secret

 The night is dark and windy, and everything is silent.

Since returning from Feng's house, Xiang Bai has been shutting himself in the study, not allowing anyone to disturb him, even for dinner.

In the main room, the Ningshen Incense rose slowly from the gilt unicorn copper stove on the table, and the tall white figure was reflected in the window, looking motionless.

Shaking slightly, a faint fragrance drifted into Bai Xiang's nose. Turning around, he saw a tall man in black clothes standing in the study. His face was covered, so he couldn't see clearly who he was, but that person was The exposed eyes are as bright as stars.

Bai Xiang was the first to speak, and he cupped his fists and thanked Xiao Tingyi.

“Thank you, Your Majesty, for your help, otherwise the Feng family may be in trouble this time.”

 Xiao Tingyi smiled, but still liked to deal with smart people. He could understand the other person's thoughts without saying anything.

So he simply pulled off the black scarf covering it, and his handsome face was a little blurred by the soft yellow candlelight.

"The collusion between the top and bottom of the Water Transport Department is rotten to the core. If we don't use some thunderous means to conduct a thorough investigation, I'm afraid more than just the people of Zhejiang and Zhejiang will suffer. Mr. Feng is a good official, but it's a pity that he can't defeat those local snakes. This time If you go to Jinling City rashly, you may not end up well."

 “Your Majesty is far-sighted and I admire him.”

 Bai Xiang said nothing, but there was a rare admiration in his eyes.

 When the late emperor was still alive, he loved the seventeenth prince very much. In addition to loving the house and the bird, he also saw in him the rare ambition of the royal family to embrace the world.

Among the many princes under his knees, all of them want to reach the highest position, but behind the scenes, no one really cares about the people of the world. They are just greedy for status and power.

It's a pity that such a good emperor's seedling was eventually buried in the South Vietnam War ten years ago.

Now the only one left, at least when facing the world, is the reclusive and sick Prince Ding.

“However, I have something unclear. When did the prince start to doubt the Water Transport Department?”

Prince Ding, who has been pretending for so many years in spite of the disapproval of the world, actually hurriedly intervened to stop this matter. I think the Water Transport Department must have touched a place that should not be touched.

 Could it be...

The guess gradually took shape in my mind, and I heard Xiao Tingyi say calmly.

"The Luohe River in the southwest, the Lianghe River in the northwest, and the Lingjiang River in the northeast. The total water transportation of the three places is less than two-thirds of the water transportation of Zhejiang and Zhejiang. For their own selfish interests, the Wei family has joined forces and has been trapped for more than ten years. No less than ten million shi of official grain. Those who were supposed to be sent to the granary of the Jin Dynasty were not sent to the army that was supposed to be guarded in the four states. How could I, the king, endure such a worm in the court, so I sent someone to kill the previous Water Transport Secretary. Governor, the purpose is to disrupt this game of chess and break the arm of Duke Wei, so that in the future we can clear out the water transport departments in the two Zhejiang provinces."

His eyes are like cold stars, and his words are devoid of any emotion, but anyone who understands him knows that he is angry at this moment.

 The angrier you are, the calmer your face becomes.

In the past ten years, King Ding has already cultivated himself into an iron wall, and outsiders can't even hope to know what he is thinking.

 After hearing what he said, Bai Xiang also understood the general idea.

The Wei family even dared to supply military supplies to protect their family and country. They were really impatient. Wealth is alluring and power is confusing to people. Once they are greedy enough, their own destruction is not far away.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this move to establish the Prince's Palace will benefit the country and the people. No matter who you put in the position, I will definitely be behind you."

 “In that case, thank you very much Bai Xiang.”

The Wei family chose Fenghai, which must have a profound meaning.

 Is it just because he is the son-in-law of the Bai family? He had not been chosen sooner or later, but he was chosen to block the knife at this time. There must be other tricks in it. There seemed to be a thick ink in Bai Xiang's eyes, which was bottomless.

The figures in the study were looking forward to it. The boy on night watch passed by and saw a gust of wind blowing gently. Then everything returned to calm. He tilted his head and looked around, but didn't find anything, so he picked up a lantern and continued to watch the night.

In the study, Bai Xiang was the only one left at the moment. For some reason, he suddenly remembered Feng Jinxu's words during the day, and the face of his granddaughter Feng Jinyao came to his mind. Maybe it was time to have a good talk with that child.

 Early the next morning, the Feng family sent for an imperial doctor to see the injury.

All the servants and ladies looked serious. As soon as Dr. Liu entered Yunhaiyuan, he heard Mrs. Feng's cries of death. As soon as he entered, he frowned. It was indeed not good.

Master Feng was unconscious. The copper basin placed next to him was filled with blood. Bandages were scattered on the floor, all with blood stains.

People in the room were either crying sadly or looking gloomy.

He swallowed secretly and hoped for God's blessing. If Master Feng made any mistake, he might not be able to leave Feng's house properly.

Hurrying forward to check the injury, he saw that the huge stab wound directly penetrated the chest, which was purple and black, and seemed to be inflamed and festering.

Looking at Mr. Feng who was lying down, his eyes were sunken, his face was pale, and he looked like he was taking in less air and outgoing more air. Doctor Liu didn't know where to start.

"This is...when did Mr. Feng get injured?"

“My father was assassinated in the hospital last night. His injuries were originally well under control, but for some reason this morning, they deteriorated to this level. Could it be that the sword was poisonous?”

Feng Jinxu's suspicion was very possible. Upon seeing this, Imperial Physician Liu immediately took out a silver needle to check.

 It's okay, but no blackening is seen.

But this injury was much more difficult to deal with, so he bit the bullet and said, "I don't care about sword wounds, for fear of delaying Master Feng's condition, if possible, please ask a military doctor who specializes in treating sword injuries to come and take a look. "

 The words were sincere. Although there was a suspicion that he would let himself go, he said this for Feng Hai's own good.

After hearing this, Mrs. Feng almost fainted again. Feng Jinlin gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go find Su Cheng."

Su Cheng is the son of General Su. If General Su opens his mouth, he may be able to find a military doctor with superb medical skills.

Feng Jinxu's face was gloomy, but he did not take his anger out on Imperial Physician Liu. After being quiet for a moment, he said, "Then please ask the Imperial Physician to prescribe some prescriptions to strengthen the body, nourish blood and regulate Qi. When my father gets better, it will be convenient for him to rest. "

"This is not difficult. I'm going to write the prescription right now. If there's anything I can do to help later, just send someone to call."

The relationship between the Feng family and the Bai family is deep-rooted, and it is necessary to have good relations with the Feng family both emotionally and rationally.

 “That’s why there will be more Dr. Liu.”

 “You’re welcome, Sir.”

Fu Yi led Dr. Liu down from the side. Mother Bai's face was full of melancholy. She was afraid that Mrs. Feng would be sad and did not dare to persuade her. She could only cooperate with the doctor to bandage the wound first.

 In the afternoon of that day, General Su personally brought a famous knife wound doctor in the army to diagnose and treat Lord Feng.

Soon, the news of Feng Hai’s assassination spread throughout the streets and alleys. Everyone said that Master Feng was an upright official and the entire Feng family was a kind person. How could they suffer such disasters one after another? Could it be that there was a villain plotting behind his back?
