Chapter 40 [40] A huge investment

"Xue'er!!!" Madam Feng stepped forward in a hurry, covered Feng Lingxue's mouth with her hand, glared at her in reproach, and quickly asked Mother Huo to go out and check if there were any suspicious people around.

"Mom! This is your room. Why are you so scared?"

Feng Lingxue broke free from Madam Feng's hand, twisted her handkerchief angrily, and said in confusion.

"Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall. Why are you so out of control?" Madam Feng quickly grabbed Feng Lingxue's hand and comforted her. She pulled her into the inner room and then said, "Just wait patiently for marriage into the East Palace. There are too many people who want Feng Lingyan dead."

"Do you think the Queen can tolerate her living?"

Madam Feng will not let Feng Lingyan go, but she is also looking forward to the Queen taking action, so that she can stay out of it.

"Mom, can't you get rid of Feng Lingyan quickly?" Feng Lingxue wished Feng Lingyan would disappear immediately, she was still not satisfied.

The helpless Madam Feng rolled her eyes at Feng Lingxue and said unhappily, "Do you think she is still the useless person who allows us to control her?"

"How can we get rid of her if we can't even find where she is right now?"

Feng Lingxue stamped her feet and bit her lips. Suddenly, she felt nauseous and quickly ran to the side, retching non-stop.

Madam Feng's face darkened, and she quickly stepped forward to ask, "Xue'er, did you have a stomachache?"

Convinced that her daughter would not follow her old path, Madam Feng did not want to hear any news she did not want to hear.

"Mom, my daughter has been feeling nauseous lately. Maybe she has an upset stomach."

Feng Lingxue's eyes flickered slightly, and she didn't dare to tell Madam Feng her guess. It was just that her period was indeed more than ten days late this month, and there was still no sign of it coming.

"I'll ask Mother Huo to call the court physician over to take your pulse." Madam Feng's heart sank. She looked at Feng Lingxue carefully and realized that she had lost the innocence of a girl and gained the charm of a young woman.

In a hurry, Madam Feng quickly grabbed Feng Lingxue's sleeve and pulled it up. As expected, she didn't see the uterine blood. She was very angry and slapped Feng Lingxue in the face: "Feng Lingxue! What did your mother teach you? Tell me, whose child is in your belly?"

Thinking of a certain possibility, Madam Feng's blood boiled and she felt dizzy.

"Mother, who else could it be except His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Feng Lingxue covered half of her face, tears of grievance dripping down her cheeks, her voice full of nasal tone.

"You bastard, who allowed you to have physical contact with the Crown Prince before your wedding?"

"Do you know that the maids in the palace will examine you before the wedding? If you lose your virginity before marriage, you will lose your position as the Crown Princess!"

Madam Feng was so angry that her chest was heaving violently. She had to hold it down with her hands to avoid fainting.

Feng Lingxue then realized the seriousness of the situation. She quickly knelt on the ground, tears in her eyes: "Mom, you must help me. If Dad knew, he would definitely beat me to death."

Madam Feng's eyes were filled with disappointment, but they did not dare to let her kneel all the time. If anything happened to the baby in her belly, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince blamed them, they would not be able to bear it.

"Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to move up the wedding date and have your father discuss it with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Madam Feng quickly helped Feng Lingxue up and whispered a few words in her ear. Feng Lingxue suddenly realized what was going on and her eyes were filled with surprise. She hugged Madam Feng and started to act coquettishly again.

At the same time, Feng Xun dragged his injured body to Xiangguo Temple and met Master Yikong. Master Yikong clasped his hands together, his eyes sparkling with brilliance: "Master Feng, are you here today for the Third Miss of the Feng Mansion?"

Master Yikong didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Master is indeed a great monk. Seeing is believing. I came here today to ask you to go to Feng Mansion and help us see if Feng Lingyan is possessed by a demon. I wonder if you are willing to help Feng Mansion with this?"

Feng Xun looked sincere as he handed over a silver note worth one hundred thousand taels, which was really a huge investment.

Master Yikong moved the Buddhist beads with both hands, his eyes deep: "Donor Feng is very thoughtful. I will accept your donation on behalf of the Buddha. The Buddha will surely bless the Feng Mansion with peace. I will go to the Feng Mansion tomorrow. Donor Feng, please go back."

Master Yikong took the banknotes quickly. He needed to prepare some things needed for casting spells, so he ordered the visitor to leave.

"Thank you, Master. I will go back to Shengjing now and wait for your arrival." Feng Xun stood up and saluted in surprise, then turned around and left quickly, fearing that if he walked too slowly, Master Yikong would regret it.

On the other side, Feng Lingyan regained consciousness. When she thought that she had fallen asleep because of Gong Yanchen again, she looked annoyed. When she raised her eyes, she met Gong Yanchen's charming eyes. She also felt the touch of a hard object against her waist, and her face instantly became hot.

"Gong Yanchen!" Feng Lingyan was furious, but the voice she shouted in became delicate, which even scared herself.

"Little thing, you're hungry right after waking up? Huh???" Gong Yanchen smiled playfully with hint of meaning.

"You hungry bastard! What time is it? Grandpa will be very worried if we don't go back."

Feng Lingyan stood up quickly and jumped directly to a height of several dozen meters. Her mouth opened in surprise. When did she become so powerful?

Why didn't she know?
Little did she know that every time she and Gong Yanchen practiced dual cultivation, her own cultivation would be improved, and she was the one who benefited the most. Who made Gong Yanchen so reluctant to exploit her?

"Achen!!!" Feng Lingyan was so scared that her pupils widened. When there was danger, the person she subconsciously thought of was Gong Yanchen.

Gong Yanchen chuckled helplessly, and as his body swayed, he embraced Feng Lingyan in his arms, spinning in the air, and landed in a graceful posture.

"Little thing, you are not allowed to leave my side for the next two days, okay?"

Gong Yanchen sensed something, his eyes were cold, anyone who dared to touch the little thing was really courting death, with him around, no one could touch her.

"Achen, is someone going to deal with me again?" Feng Lingyan observed the expressions on his faces and couldn't help but said depressedly.

Gong Yanchen reached out and rubbed her head, pursing his lips and chuckled: "Who made you favored by me? You are the future princess of the prince Chen, and you are also the disciple that I am going to accept?"

Gong Yanchen only wanted to delay the disasters that were about to come, but he knew better that sometimes, even he could not prevent certain things from happening.

At this moment, Gong Yanchen really hated the God of Destiny. Why should the fate of them, the gods, and all things in the three realms and six paths, be controlled by the God of Destiny?
"So, my suffering actually comes from you?" Feng Lingyan rolled her eyes with a look of disgust.

"Hmm! That seems to be true. Little thing, do you regret meeting me?"

Gong Yanchen used a cleaning spell and changed them into gorgeous purple clothes, like couple outfits, making them look like a couple of gods and goddesses. One could not envy them enough!
