Divine Doctor: Daughter of the First Wife

Chapter 1108 Who Cares About Who Wants Who?

Even if he had many suspicions, Xuan Tianyan still chose to first go to Crystal courtyard to see Feng Fendai. After all, regardless of what huge matter occurred in the capital, it would never be his turn to deal with it. Amongst all his brothers, all of them were more capable than him, all of them had more authority than him, he was only an idle prince. In the eyes of outsiders, he was a prince who only knew how to flirt around all day, what right did he have to care about the safety of Da Shun? In addition, Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng have returned to the capital earlier, right? Old Sixth had also returned to the capital. With them around, this capital would not be in chaos.

Xuan Tianyan pushed away his responsibilities cleanly, he did not want to bother about any matters related to court politics, at this moment, he was only thinking about if Feng Fendai was safe and if Xiao Bao had already returned to Crystal courtyard.

The sound of the bolt was hard, the gatekeeper inside opened the door quickly. Once he saw it was Xuan Tianyan, the gatekeeper bowed quickly. But Xuan Tianyan did not have the leisure to care about the actions of these servants, heading straight of Feng Fendai’s courtyard and entering.

The servants did not dare of stop him, only guessing in their hearts on what had happened for the Fifth Prince to be that panicked.

Currently, Feng Fendai had not slept, leaning against her bed and thinking about many things. She kept pondering about what she heard Yu Qianyin say to the people next to her when she left, the other party said: I can still remember the appearance of Feng family’s Third Miss, even though there is not much time, I have some confidence of making it 60 to 70 percent similar, for the rest, we can refine it little by little later on!

Fendai did not understand what those words were supposed to mean, what 60 to 70 percent similar? What refine it little by little later? That Yu Qianyin was really strange, her actions and words were eerie and weird.

She was currently thinking and then heard Dong Ying shouting from outside: “Your Highness the Fifth Prince? Why did you come at this hour? Our Young Miss has already slept.”

Xuan Tianyan’s voice was heard immediately: “She has slept? That means, she is in the manor?”

“That’s right! Young Miss is sleeping in the house!”

She heard Xuan Tianyan clearly breathe a sigh of relief and say: “That’s good, that’s good, This Prince was really afraid she...... forget it, let’s not talk about this, open the door, This Prince just wants to take one look at her.”

Feng Fendai frowned when hearing this, she did not feel that it was strange that Xuan Tianyan suddenly returned from the hunting grounds. Since Xiao Bao had gone missing, Xuan Tianyan would definitely be anxious. But why did he breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that she was in the manor?

She got off the bed and without waiting for Dong Ying to open the door, she pulled open the door herself, asking with a cold expression: “Why did you return? Coming to my side in the middle of the night, what do you want?”

Once Xuan Tianyan saw her, he first stared at her for a while, then he really exhaled deeply in front of Fendai and said: “It’s good that you returned, I was really afraid that something happened to you. You did not know, but I saw signs of a fight on the way back to the capital from the hunting grounds, I raced down the path on the way back, worried that something bad happened to you. Seeing that you are safe now, I am reassured.”

Xuan Tianyan really received a scare, he did not dare to imagine what he should do if something happened to Feng Fendai. After so many years, he found this pillar of mental support after much effort, he did not wish to spend such muddle-headed days like in the past, he did not want to raise countless women in Li Palace because those women resembled that person in the past a little. He wanted to protect Feng Fendai properly, even if this girl was frequently seeking death, as long as he was around, he could somehow protect her safety. Heavens knew what he was feeling when he saw the signs of fighting on the way, once the terror of losing something came, it was difficult to put down.

Feng Fendai frowned when she heard this, saying that she did not feel moved was false, she was not a rock, she could naturally tell that the Fifth Prince treated her well, but her personality was too twisted, so she was not willing to admit this. Just like right now, she was moved, but the words she said were: “You have seen me now, I am safe, you can return now.”

“But......” Xuan Tianyan took a step forward, asking anxiously: “Xiao Bao did come back with you?”

Hearing him ask about Xiao Bao, Dong Ying jolted and almost gave things away, if not for the fact that the Fifth Prince’s attention was focused on Fendai, Dong Ying’s reaction was pretty fatal.

However, compared to Dong Ying, Feng Fendai was much calmer, she asked Xuan Tianyan immediately: “Xiao Bao? How can he come back with me? Wasn’t he with you when I left? We agreed that you would bring him around the hunting grounds to play for a few days!”

Once he heard this, Xuan Tianyan’s mind exploded with a “boom”. Xiao Bao did not return! Xiao Bao did not come back! What did that mean? Such a small child riding a horse carriage on his own and there were signs of a fight on the way back, this meant something bad had happened to that child!

He was a little panicked and flustered, this panic was seen by Fendai and she also felt a little bad. She clearly knew that this man treated her sincerely, but she was just that twisted and always found fault with him. This prince which looked so high and mighty in the past, this person which she used all her effort to curry favour with, with the changes over a long time, she gradually started to look down on him. But even if she did look down on him, in the end, she did harbour some shame over this matter in her heart, with the matter pushed this far, she was unable to tell the truth and could only continue to show a cold expression, saying: “What’s wrong with you? What happened? Where is Xiao Bao?”

Now it turned into Feng Fendai asking him for the person! Xuan Tianyan was extremely troubled and knew he could not stay here any longer. The longer he stayed, the longer Xiao Bao would stay in danger. With such an urgent matter, finding the person was more important. So he spoke and told Fendai: “Some things happened, but do not be anxious, do not worry, three days, with three days at most, I will definitely send Xiao Bao back to you.” After he said this, he turned around and left.

Feng Fendai stood where she was, watching his back and he walked away, her nose suddenly prickling slightly. She sniffed, forcing back that prickling feeling, then she glared at Dong Ying, warning her: “Remember what I said just now, if the Fifth Prince asks again in the future, then follow my words. The Young Master was lost by him and this has nothing to do with us at all.” After saying this, she was worried that Dong Ying’s mind would not be flexible, so she added on: “In the first place, that child chased after us by himself, if Xuan Tianyan watched him properly, how would he be able to run out at such a young age? Therefore, he is still to blame in this matter.”

Dong Ying quickly agreed, thinking in her heart with a sigh: That was true! If the Fifth Prince kept watch properly, it would be impossible for that child to run out of the hunting grounds. This was probably fate!

Seeing that Ding Ying agreed and that she appeared to have understood things, Fendai returned to the house. The anxiousness did not show on her face, but the anxiousness was full-blown in her heart. When that child Xiao Bao was around, she would hit and scold him, but with him in Yu Qianyin’s hands now, she was so worried that she rather use Feng Xiangrong to exchange for him. Once she thought about Feng Xiangrong, Fendai became anxious again, she was still at the hunting grounds now and it was not known when she would be able to return, she really hoped that Feng Xiangrong would return to the capital immediately, then she would think of everything to send her into Yu Qianyin’s hands, using that to exchange for her own younger brother.

The Fifth Prince did not sleep that night, but he also did not know where to start searching. He deployed close to 20 people from Li Palace, leaving the city overnight to search with all their might at the location where the incident occurred, but there were no results in the morning.

The actions from his side naturally did not escape the Xuan Tianming’s and Feng Yuheng’s notice. The pair only thought that he really knew how to cause more issues, but after gathering more information, they found out that something bad had happened to Xiao Bao. Without any other choice, Feng Yuheng also sent out people from her side to search as well. But they did not know, at this moment, Xiao Bao was locked together with the Eighth Prince Xuan Tianmo, and someone had used ink to trace an outline on Xuan Tianmo’s face, Yu Qianyin said, remove the skin according to this outline, they would take action tonight.

Xuan Tianmo broke down completely, he had already gone nuts, shouting without any meaning all day and night. With his lower body rotten like a demon, Xiao Bao was so afraid that he cried loudly with a wahh.

And at the hunting grounds in the suburbs, the princes left one by one, and even Feng Yuheng and Feng Fendai left, the Emperor was a little unhappy. He slept for one day and one night in a daze, and when he woke up again, he heard Zhang Yuan tell him about this, then he saw Yao Xian sitting next to his mattress and drinking tea, so he could not help but ask: “What? You came here again to examine Our health?”

Yao Xian took his head, “I just woke up.” Then he casually passed the bowl of tea leftover from what he drank and passed it to the Emperor: “Here, it’s for curing hangovers, after you drink it, your head won’t hurt anymore.”

The Emperor did not reject him, taking it and drinking it with a tilt of his head. After he drank it, the passed the bowl to Zhang Yuan, then spoke to Yao Xian: “Look at these brats, what is the use of raising them? It is rare for Us to propose coming out to hunt and enjoy for a few days, yet they return one by one. We have only drank quite a bit more and slept for two days and they lost their patience just like this?”

Yao Xian advised him: “Why are you thinking so much? In the end, those who stayed outnumber those who have left! In the end, Da Shun is a huge country, how would it be possible for there not to be a few people stationed there in the capital? You came out and had fun, but what if something bad happens? In the end, His Highness the Sixth Prince is a little too much of a civil officer, for a military general to be stationed at the capital, it is a good thing.”

“A military general stationed at the capital? There would make sense for Old Ninth, but what is Old Fifth doing, butting in as well?” The Emperor still looked unhappy, criticising Xuan Tianyan in one go: “He is unable to do anything, he doesn’t even know how to butt himself into any activities.”

Zhang Yuan quickly explained: “It was said that His Highness the Fifth Prince and Feng family’s Fourth Miss had a small quarrel, Feng’s Fourth Miss got angry and left, so His Highness the Fifth Prince could only chase after her!”

The Emperor was very interested in this gossip and immediately pulled Zhang Yuan and Yao Xian to talk about the matters between his fifth son and Feng family’s fourth daughter, not caring about the topic from before, whoever wanted to leave could just leave, he just needed to stave off his boredom.

For the staving off of boredom, this continued for seven days, perhaps they knew that Xuan Tianming had returned to the capital, the old Emperor as well as the ministers who were brought along felt reassured and no one mentioned the matter of returning first and they really played until they were satisfied. And after returning to the capital, the Emperor did not receive any information about the Eighth Prince being taken out. Xuan Tianming intentionally kept it a secret, fearing that he would be anxious and angry. With such a weak body, if another wave of anger rose, a huge problem would occur.

And on the Sixth Prince’s end, he still handled the court stably. Even though he knew that the Eighth Prince had gone missing, he acted as if it had nothing to do with him. It was just that in secret, he sent out a lot of manpower, assisting Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng in this huge search. At the same time, with regards to the information brought by Zong Sui’s prince Li Kun, he also sent people over to the eastern border to gather more information about Zong Sui.

As for Jing Ci Palace, the Empress started to search for Sun Qi when she was at the hunting grounds, but until she returned to the capital, she could not see that person again. That person seem to be evaporated and could not be found anymore.

The Head of the imperial health college reported the disappearance, but the Empress felt that the danger had already arrived, she told Fang Yi: “Go tell the Sixth Prince, be careful of Duanmu Anguo, perhaps another threat to Da Shun is coming soon......”
