Ling Mo Han's face was full of fawning and pleasing deference.
Feng Jin looked at Ling Mo Han with doubt, "Really?"
"Whether it's true or not, we'll know after a try."
Ling Mo Han took Feng Jin's hand and quickly walked into the room, settling her on the bed before starting the massage.
"How is it?" Ling Mo Han asked, his face eager for praise.
"Not bad, a bit to the left… put some more strength…"
Feng Jin's face was full of enjoyment as she comfortably closed her eyes.
Being served felt truly wonderful…
"Young madam, the Princess of Jing has arrived and is waiting in the hall," Cai Qing's voice came from outside the door.
Feng Jin, who had been dozing, suddenly opened her eyes. How could Lin Yu Wei have come at this time? Had something happened to Chu Chen Yi's leg?
Thinking of this, Feng Jin quickly stood up, "I need to go and see what's going on."
Ling Mo Han, whose good time had been so abruptly interrupted, his face gradually darkened. When couldn't she come, but she had to choose this moment to stir up trouble?
"I'll go with you," he said, wanting to get rid of Lin Yu Wei quickly so he could continue.
In the hall, Lin Yu Wei sat on the right-hand chair with a worried expression. Upon seeing Feng Jin, she hurried to greet her.
"What's wrong?" Feng Jin, with her sharp eyes, noticed the tear stains on Lin Yu Wei's face and asked.
Lin Yu Wei simply shook her head, biting her lip in silence.
This made Feng Jin anxious, "Tell me quickly what's wrong. What's the point of not saying anything?"
After a long pause, Lin Yu Wei whispered, "The Empress just went to the Prince of Jing's mansion…"
The Empress. Feng Jin's nerves immediately tensed. Why would she go to the Prince of Jing's mansion for no reason? What ill intentions did she have?
"What did she go there for?"
"Under the guise of visiting, the Empress accused me of not having any movement after being married for a long time. She also bestowed her nephew, Wang Qin, to Prince Jing as a concubine…"
"Chu Chen Yi agreed?" Feng Jin's voice suddenly rose in volume.
Lin Yu Wei shook her head, "No… at first Prince Jing didn't agree, but the Empress forcibly kept her there and openly and indirectly accused me of being jealous…"
"Sister Feng Jin, I really don't know what to do. I came to you."
Feng Jin fell into thought and said in an orderly fashion, "The Empress arranging a concubine for Chu Chen Yi is definitely to keep an eye on him. Moreover, this concubine is of noble status, and you and Chu Chen Yi cannot dispose of her as you please. Keeping her in the Prince of Jing's mansion, regardless of Chu Chen Yi's intentions, is a disaster."
Feng Jin couldn't help but admire the Empress's scheming. To have been able to steadily hold the position of Empress for so many years, and to have made only the third prince the most likely successor among Emperor Xuan Wen's sons, she truly had some skill.
"Exactly. It seems the Empress is already suspicious," Ling Mo Han thought the same as Feng Jin at this moment.
"Then… what should we do next? Chu Chen Yi's leg still needs to recover, and you, Sister Feng Jin, have been entering and exiting the Prince of Jing's mansion repeatedly. She will surely notice. If the Empress finds out, she will definitely act against us."
After all, she had not experienced such scheming and intrigue, Lin Yu Wei was immediately flustered and at a loss.
"It's difficult to guard against internal strife. Since we can't guard against it, let's eliminate this hidden danger."
Feng Jin's eyes were full of determination, and her whole body exuded a murderous aura.
"After all, she is the Empress's niece and holds a significant position in the court. If we act without evidence, it will surely stir up court affairs. If we are caught by the Empress again, we will be counterattacked, and that would be terrible."
Lin Yu Wei, after careful consideration, still felt it was not entirely appropriate.
"Since we are going to act, it must be done in a way that no one notices. We cannot rush. Once an opportunity arises, we will directly eliminate her."
Feng Jin was always decisive and clean, never procrastinating, leaving no room for people to find fault. This matter still needed to be carefully considered.
"It is inconvenient for me to go to the Prince of Jing's mansion, but you can come out," Feng Jin said with a faint smile, already having a plan in mind. "Tomorrow, you find an excuse to bring the Prince of Jing to the Ling Mansion."
"But Wang Qin is arrogant. What if she insists on coming along?"
Feng Jin sighed and looked at Lin Yu Wei with disappointment, "You are the Princess of Jing, the principal wife. Even if Wang Qin is the Empress's niece and her status is noble, as long as she becomes Prince Jing's concubine, she is a concubine. As the principal wife, you have a hundred ways to control a concubine. Go back and show your dignity as the Princess of Jing and properly discipline Wang Qin."
"I… I'm worried…"
That Wang Qin is not easy to deal with. It's not that she's afraid of Wang Qin, but she's worried that Wang Qin will report it to the Empress, and they will be blamed, and Chu Chen Yi will also be punished.
"What are you worried about? Dealing with a concubine, as long as you have reason and evidence, even if it's reported to the Emperor or the Empress Dowager, it will be fine. Your marriage with Chu Chen is bestowed by the Empress Dowager. The Empress openly forced a concubine on Chu Chen Yi, so she wouldn't dare to make too much of a fuss. You have the entire Marquis Mansion supporting you, so what are you afraid of?"
After Feng Jin's persuasion, Lin Yu Wei instantly gained confidence.
"I know what to do. I need to go back to the Prince of Jing's mansion first. Wang Qin will surely not behave herself when she sees me leave."
"I'll go with you to see what kind of person this Wang Qin is."
Ling Mo Han stepped forward and took Feng Jin's hand, urging, "Let me go with you."
"It's a matter between women, why are you going? Don't worry, I'm just going to see what kind of person this Wang Qin is. I definitely won't get into a fight with her. If we do get into a fight, then you can help me vent my anger."
After saying that, Feng Jin pulled Lin Yu Wei and walked out.
Ling Mo Han watched their retreating figures and shook his head, sighing. With Feng Jin's personality, it would be strange if there wasn't a fight.
"Young General, are you really letting the young madam go alone? I heard that Wang Qin is not easy to deal with, she's arrogant and overbearing. Don't let the young madam suffer a loss," Lu Shi said with deep concern.
"Suffer a loss… When have you ever seen your young madam suffer a loss? With that much time, you might as well worry about Wang Qin's fate."
Ling Mo Han only prayed that Feng Jin would show mercy and not beat Wang Qin to death.
…
"Sister, when you meet Wang Qin later, you don't need to pay attention to her. She's very gossipy."
Lin Yu Wei had clashed with Wang Qin a few times, but she was never her match in arguments.
"It's just that your personality is too weak. Disobeying the principal wife should be punished by caning. Directly administer the court caning and beat her half to death, and see if she still dares to act up."
A good beating would make her obedient.
"I'm just worried she'll complain to the Empress, so I've been yielding repeatedly."
"If you keep yielding, she'll think you're easy to bully and will push her luck."
As soon as Feng Jin finished speaking, a sweet voice came.
"Oh… Who do I see? It's the young madam of Ling. You're quite a regular visitor. What brings you to our Prince of Jing's mansion?"
