Once Jiang Feixue had eliminated west Lengyue's threat to her, she thought of Jiang Hailing. She was furious that she hadn't killed that woman. In just over ten days, it would be time for her to marry into the Crown Prince's residence. Then she would be the proper Crown Princess. What would she do then?
Thinking of this, he slammed his fist on the table and lost his temper.
"This woman is incredibly lucky," I heard that the assassin could have killed her, but she encountered the Left Prime Minister Xi Lingfeng, who saved her, which is why she escaped death.
The Left Prime Minister, Xi Lingfeng, is a man shrouded in mystery, making it impossible to discern his strength. He has an ordinary appearance, but his elegant demeanor is unmatched.
His imposing presence was no less than that of the Crown Prince Feng Zixiao, and the current situation was becoming increasingly unpredictable.
Not only did the royal family remain completely silent, but the Left Prime Minister Xi Lingfeng also made no move. In addition, a general from the Northern Dynasty, Ji Shaocheng, arrived. As soon as Ji Shaocheng arrived, many young ladies from prominent families in the capital were captivated by him. They often talked about this general in private, praising his extraordinary talent and outstanding abilities. In short, she could not understand what he was all about. Ever since she learned to bark like a dog, she had not left the Prime Minister's residence.
I originally planned to wait until I got rid of Jiang Hailing before leaving, but I didn't expect that I couldn't get rid of that woman at all.
At the door, her personal maid, Ziyue, walked in and respectfully reported, "Miss, the Second Miss has arrived."
"Jiang Feiyu?"
Jiang Feixue raised an eyebrow. She had forgotten about her second younger sister. Not only had she been abandoned by General Bai Ye, but now even her beautiful face was ruined. These past few days, she had been staying quietly in her courtyard. The Third Madam had even spent a fortune searching for renowned doctors throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty to cure her face, but unfortunately, the results were minimal.
Thinking of her second sister's disfigured face, Jiang Feixue's mood suddenly improved a lot. She waved her hand and ordered Hei Sha and Bai Sha, "You two can leave now."
“Yes,” the two subordinates withdrew, and Jiang Feixue then ordered Ziyue, “Please invite the Second Miss in.”
"Yes, Miss."
Zi Yue withdrew and respectfully invited Jiang Feiyu into the hall.
Jiang Feiyu and her servant entered the hall one after the other.
In the dim candlelight, Jiang Feiyu's face, though healed, was now covered in pockmarks. She was no longer the beautiful and charming woman she once was; her once lovely face was now ruined.
"Second sister, your face?"
Jiang Feixue was happy inside, but her face showed heartache. She gestured for Xiao Chan to help her mistress sit down.
Although Jiang Feiyu knew that Jiang Feixue was probably overjoyed inside, hearing these words still made her heart ache and tears well up in her eyes.
These past few days have felt like an eternity to her. Bai Ye hasn't shown up at all. She had been thinking of going to find him, but with her face ruined, she didn't dare to go looking for him. Her father sent people to look for him, but they couldn't find him. He hasn't attended court for the past few days and seems to have disappeared.
Although her mother used to love her dearly, she was extremely anxious when she saw her face ruined. She spent her days sending people to search for the best doctors in the country, hoping to heal her face. She forgot how sad she was and completely forgot to care about her daughter, which made her feel even worse.
"elder sister."
"Didn't they say that Third Sister went to find a famous doctor? She will definitely be cured."
“Those famous doctors are all quacks. None of them are effective. They came to look at my face and all said they couldn’t cure me.”
As Jiang Feiyu spoke, she cried even harder. Xiao Chan handed her a handkerchief and whispered to comfort her, "Miss, don't be sad. There will definitely be someone who can heal your face."
"Yes, there is someone who can definitely heal your face if they take action."
"who?"
Jiang Feiyu seemed to see a glimmer of hope and quickly looked up at Jiang Feixue.
Jiang Feixue curled her lips slightly, a hint of mockery in her eyes. Although that person could heal her face, he was not one to act rashly.
"The divine physician Shen Ruoxuan, I heard that his medical skills are second to none in the world, and no one dares to claim to be number one. I think that as long as he is willing to make a move, my second sister's face will surely be completely healed."
"Shen Ruoxuan?"
Jiang Feiyu knew this person, but she also knew that Shen Ruoxuan was wicked and not someone anyone could persuade. Sometimes even royalty couldn't get him to do anything, let alone a mere concubine's daughter like her. Originally, she had Bai Ye protecting her. If Bai Ye were willing to step in, she might actually have a chance to persuade Shen Ruoxuan. But now, people like them...
"He is currently in the palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Jiang Feixue learned this news unintentionally from her father, who said that the divine physician Shen Ruoxuan was treating the emperor in the palace.
"real?"
Jiang Feiyu stood up excitedly, then fell silent again: "Even if he's in the palace, I'm afraid I can't persuade him to come."
"You could ask Third Sister to ask Father to intervene; it might be helpful."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Feiyu snapped out of her daze and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Father is still a respected figure in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so Shen Ruoxuan will certainly not embarrass him."
"Yes, there is hope for your face to recover."
"Thank you, sister," Jiang Feiyu hurriedly stood up and ran outside. Xiao Chan quickly followed her, but after running a few steps, she stopped. She had come here today to see her older sister, but she had forgotten. However, treating her face was the most important thing right now. But...?
"Big sister, once my face is healed, I will definitely not let Jiang Hailing off the hook. My face was ruined, and it must be related to her."
This was the result she had come to after thinking about it for many days. Until now, she had been fine, but after offending Jiang Hailing, she was not only abandoned by Bai Ye, but also disfigured. Jiang Hailing, I will not let this go.
Jiang Feiyu and her servant ran away. In the hall, Jiang Feixue smiled broadly, like a scarlet flower blooming in the dark night, her charm extraordinary.
Her personal maid, Ziyue, asked curiously, "Miss, why are you helping her?"
"Help her? Ziyue, you're overthinking it. Why would I help her? Shen Ruoxuan is eccentric and not someone that can be easily persuaded. He doesn't even care about royalty, let alone Father. I'm just doing her a favor. In the end, she still can't do anything. But I can use her to deal with Jiang Hailing."
"Miss, you are very clever."
"Alright, it's late, let's go to sleep."
Jiang Feixue yawned, took Ziyue's hand, and walked out to wash up and go to bed.
The next day, Hailing did not attend class at the Banana Garden Academy, but instead instructed Steward Han to send someone to the academy to inform them.
If I were to be assassinated yesterday, and go to the Banana Garden Bookstore again today, I would either be assassinated by the same assassin again.
