Chapter 102 [102] Gentle Trap
Gong Yanchen sat upright on a high seat, and the master of ceremonies shouted that the apprenticeship ceremony had begun.
Feng Lingyan mechanically followed Qing Yi's instructions and performed various ceremonies.
A quarter of an hour later, the tedious ceremony of becoming a disciple was finally completed. Feng Lingyan became the only disciple of Feng Wushang, the Palace Master of Yunxiao Palace, and naturally became the successor of the Palace Master of Yunxiao Palace.
Immediately afterwards, amid the congratulations of the crowd, Feng Lingyan left Yunxiao Palace and went straight to Feng Mansion. She took the unconscious Feng Xiaotian and Lian Qiao with her, got on a low-key-looking carriage, and left Shengjing.
At that moment, Madam Feng was filled with joy. As long as Feng Lingyan, the troublemaker, was gone, wouldn't she have the final say in the Feng Mansion?
As for the Second Madam Feng, Feng Lingyu and Feng Lian, they are a group of incompetent soldiers and incompetent generals. The three of them are as stupid as pigs. They were beaten into pieces by Feng Lingyan as soon as they came back. They are really not to be feared.
As Feng Lingyan left Shengjing, Feng Xun also hurriedly said goodbye and wanted to return home.
However, when Feng Xun was on his way back to Shengjing, he was unexpectedly besieged by a dozen men in black. The blades of the long swords in their hands shone with blue light under the sunlight. People who knew the matter knew that the light was caused by poison.
When Feng Xun thought that these people might have been sent by the man who took Feng Lingxue away last time, he became furious and started fighting with them.
However, the other party came prepared, and Feng Xun's people were hunted down in the blink of an eye.
When Feng Xun was in danger, an inconspicuous carriage came closer and closer, and seemed to be heading towards Xiangguo Temple. At this moment, Feng Xun regarded it as a life-saving straw. He quickly jumped onto the carriage, took the people in the carriage hostage, and asked the coachman to drive the carriage quickly towards Shengjing.
The moment he escaped from danger, Feng Xun was drenched in cold sweat and felt his left arm gradually becoming numb. He was startled and looked at his arm, only to find that half of his sleeve was missing and his left arm was purple and black. It was obvious that a man in black had wounded him with a sword during the fight just now, and the poison on the sword quickly spread through the wound to his whole body.
"Let me go, I'll help you suck out the poison, it will be too late if you're late."
Just when Feng Xun was in despair, a silver bell-like voice came to his ears, which made Feng Xun look at the person he had kidnapped. Only then did he realize that the person he had kidnapped was Bai Jingjing, the top girl in Xueyun Tower.
"Miss Bai, why are you here? I'm sorry, the situation just now was critical. It's my fault."
Feng Xun quickly let go of Bai Jingjing and said apologetically.
Bai Jingjing's eyes were surging with light, and she looked at Feng Xun and said softly, "Minister Feng, I understand. In the past, that lecher wanted to get his hands on me, and you helped me. Today, I will consider it as my repayment of your kindness."
As Bai Jingjing spoke, she quickly leaned over, opened her mouth and began to suck on the wound on Feng Xun's arm where poisonous blood was oozing out.
For a moment, Feng Xun was horrified, and he subconsciously wanted to stop her: "No, Miss Bai, we don't know what kind of poison this is. If you are not careful, you will die!"
For some reason, Feng Xun felt guilty at this moment and he didn't want to implicate Bai Jingjing.
Unexpectedly, Bai Jingjing was also stubborn. She ignored Feng Xun and quickly sucked the poisonous blood from his arm until the blood from his wound turned bright red, then she stopped.
But Bai Jingjing's lips turned purple. It was obvious that she had sucked too hard and the skin on her lips was broken. The poisonous blood flowed through the wound and poisoned her.
"Minister Feng, it should be fine. I have repaid your kindness. Jingjing will die without regrets." Bai Jingjing held on with one breath. After she finished saying this, her eyes went dark and she fainted.
At that moment, Feng Xun's heart felt like it was hit by a heavy hammer, and it hurt so much that he could hardly breathe. He had never thought that Bai Jingjing was such a pure and kind person, the kind of person who would even give up her life just to repay a favor he had done her.
For a selfish person like Feng Xun, that kind of shock undoubtedly cleansed his soul.
"Miss Bai!!!" Feng Xun shouted and quickly held Bai Jingjing in his arms. His arms, which had been numb just now, seemed to have regained feeling all of a sudden. He quickly shouted to the carriage driver, "Quick, send her to Liujiazhuang to find Divine Doctor Liu!"
Feng Xun had only one thought in his mind at this moment, and that was to find Dr. Liu from the nearby Liujiazhuang to save Bai Jingjing. He would be willing to pay any amount of money, even all her fortune.
Soon, Bai Jingjing was sent to Liujiazhuang and went straight to the home of Doctor Liu. She happened to meet Doctor Liu carrying a medicine box and seemed to be about to go out, but was stopped by Feng Xun, who begged him to save Bai Jingjing.
In the dark, Feng Lingyan and Gong Yanchen, who were originally rushing to the border, watched this scene. Feng Lingyan smiled playfully, hoping that during the time she was away, the Feng family would be lively and bustling, preferably even more so if there was chaos everywhere. She would be very happy then.
Thinking about how Madam Feng wished she could leave quickly when she heard that she was going to the border, and the bloodthirsty light that flashed in Madam Feng Feng's eyes, Feng Lingyan saw it all and knew that she would find someone to kill her along the way.
"Ah Chen, tell me, does my uncle use a beauty trap?"
Feng Lingyan smiled playfully. When Bai Jingjing was helping Feng Xun suck out the poisonous blood, the antidote was smeared on her mouth. The poison she was infected with looked severe, but it would not really take her life. As for Doctor Liu, he was also from Yunxiao Palace. It was still Feng Lingyan who had the final say on whether to flatter or not.
"Yes, Feng Xun has always lived a life full of intrigues. How could she not be moved when someone treats her so sincerely all of a sudden?"
Gong Yanchen pursed his lips and chuckled, he was very sure that men would always have more pity for women like Bai Jingjing. After all, she was in a brothel, was beautiful but insisted on selling her art instead of her body, which would make a self-righteous man like Feng Xun feel that such a woman was the white moonlight in his heart.
"That's right. Bai Jingjing is the white moonlight that I specially tailored for Feng Xun. Let's see how he can avoid such a honey trap."
"No, no, no, it should be called a gentle trap."
Feng Lingyan smiled happily. After she left, she had to find something for the Feng family in Shengjing to do, lest they continue to make trouble and cause trouble for her.
"Very good, little one. You are indeed very smart and know how to use the enemy of your enemy. In time, you will be like me."
As arrogant as Gong Yanchen is, when he praised Feng Lingyan, he also praised himself by the way. It was true that there was no one else except him.
"Pfft!!! Ah Chen, are you praising me? Or yourself?"
Feng Lingyan smiled with her eyebrows curved. She really couldn't believe it. Is this what a dignified emperor would say?
"Idiot, of course I'm praising you, can't you hear that?"
Gong Yanchen hugged Feng Lingyan and watched the show from the side, with a very comfortable expression on his face.
