Wen Ranran had heard of the Yule family of the previous dynasty. It was said that the Feng family's song "Hundred Birds Pay Attendance to the Phoenix" attracted many celebrities from all over the world to follow it.
It's a pity... Later, the daughter of the Feng family entered the palace and became a concubine, but she did something dirty and messy in the palace. The emperor was furious. The Feng family itself was not a high-ranking family with high officials and well-paid families, so naturally it was defeated at this point.
It was passed down from generation to generation, and when it reached Feng Qi, it was considered a wealthy family at best and would never regain its former glory.
"There are seven children in my family, and I am the seventh. My father has no daughters, so I was raised as a girl..." Feng Qi said softly with a hint of loneliness in her eyes.
"Then your six brothers..."
"My father and I were all dead. They said that the River God refused to take me in because our family deceived the River God and tied them in firewood to offer sacrifices to the sky. A raging fire, along with the last glory of the Feng family, everything...
It’s gone.” Feng Qi’s tone was understated, but everyone present was heartbroken.
After the first day, the carriage stopped at a nearby town called Liuchuan Town. Wen Ranran and the others directly booked guest rooms. Wen Changjin and Cheng Fenglou shared a room. Xia Liyuan strongly requested to share a room with Wen Ranran.
Wen Ranran pressed her head and pushed her out, so she had to retreat and stay with Qin Zhuo.
Only Feng Qi and Wen Ranran were left looking at each other.
It was a coincidence that the last room was left. To be honest, Wen Ranran was a little embarrassed.
Before she could be embarrassed, Feng Qi had already taken the key to the room and said, "Princess, please come!"
Wen Ranran: "..." Isn't this a bit too familiar?
Before Wen Ranran could react, Feng Qi just moved a chair and stood guard at the door, apparently to help Wen Ranran keep watch.
Wen Ranran looked at this posture, shook her head, and threw a quilt to the other party.
"It's just that Dong Qing taught you so well... you'd better sleep on a bunk on the floor."
Feng Qi was stunned. She hugged the quilt and didn't say anything. She just quietly made a bed on the ground and lay down at the door. Fortunately, it was midsummer and she wouldn't catch a cold.
Wen Ranran lay down undressed and looked at the ceiling.
Without Xia Lishuang by her side, she actually couldn't sleep.
So she decided to find something to talk about.
"Feng Qi, how was your discussion with Jiang Tang...?"
It's okay not to mention it. When this was mentioned, Feng Qi didn't speak for a long time.
Just when Wen Ranran thought the other party was about to fall asleep, Feng Qi whispered, "It's nothing, just give up..."
"Huh?" Wen Ranran was a little surprised. Feng Qi's character is soft on the outside but strong on the inside. To be honest, she can be very stubborn sometimes.
But this time I gave up so easily, which was a bit unnatural.
Feng Qi smiled, her face showing a bit of bitterness in the night.
"Don't blame him. He is a straight man. He just wants to assist the Lord wholeheartedly, and by the way, like General Feng Cheng, marry a beautiful daughter-in-law... I am already a mess, and I can't be as clean as him.
I dragged my son into the mud."
Feng Qi's voice was very low, even with a hint of smile, but Wen Ranran could hear the pain and struggle in it.
She didn't know how to comfort Feng Qi. To be fair, the relationship between her and Feng Qi was more than just a boss and a subordinate. They could also be regarded as friends. Because of friends, you have to be extra cautious when expressing comfort.
"Look at the past!" Wen Ranran sighed.
Feng Qi responded in a low voice and suddenly said, "My lord, what if one day Prince Yu has seventy-two concubines in the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard and doesn't like you anymore?"
