Quick Transmigration: My Host's Darling Little Darling

"I acted impulsively." Feng Yunyan only realized her mistake after hearing her words.

"As the saying goes, concern can cloud judgment. Marriage is a major event, and it also concerns the reputation of both families. It's understandable that Miss Feng is a little unsettled," Pei Ge comforted her.

Lady Chen, the wife of the Marquis, was also drawn over. Seeing her daughter's reddened eyes, she felt extremely distressed.

at this time.

"What are you doing around here?"

When Feng Yunyan heard her younger brother Feng Chang's voice, she turned around and saw her younger brother and brother-in-law, as well as Shen Qiwei.

"It seems there really was a misunderstanding." Pei Ge took the initiative to explain, "A maidservant came without permission to report that Young Master Shen was with someone... that's why..."

Pei Ge didn't explain it clearly, as it was something she found difficult to say.

But how many of these people are stupid?

"But Brother Shen has been drinking tea with us at Jingyi Pavilion the whole time."

Feng Yun looked at everyone with his naturally innocent eyes, his tone full of naivety.

When they returned to Jingyi Pavilion and saw the note in Brother Shen's hand that resembled his elder sister's handwriting, he understood.

If Sheng Yuan hadn't been worried that he might catch a chill and become unwell, and hadn't taken him back to Jingyi Pavilion to rest, something terrible might have happened.

Feng Chang waved his hand, and servants brought in several maids. Several old women kicked aside the people in the room and dragged out two disheveled people.

With witnesses and physical evidence at hand, it's clear that someone set this up.

“Our Feng family is not one to be bullied. Speak! Who gave you permission to do this?” Feng Chang’s face was terrifyingly dark as he stomped the servant under his foot.

The maid struggled desperately, but to no avail.

"Slandering the eldest son of the Duke of Shen's family, spreading rumors and causing trouble, damaging the reputation of the Duke's and Marquis's families—who can bear such a serious crime for you? Who can allow you to get away unscathed?"

Feng Yunyan's words were meant for these criminals, as well as for the people of the Duke's and Marquis's mansions.

The person who orchestrated this was ostensibly after the marriage, but in reality, they were after the Duke's and Marquis's mansions.

"Say it or not?" Feng Chang understood her sister's meaning and increased the pressure on her foot.

There was a man and a woman in the room. The woman was naturally the one who had been arranged, but the man... was trembling like a leaf.

"Young Master! Young Master, spare my life! I really just found a place to slack off since there was no work, and as soon as I entered the house, I was completely confused and didn't know what was going on... and this happened. I'm really innocent, Young Master, spare my life!"

The man was terrified.

"Madam, look." The old woman was carrying a half-burnt incense stick that she had found in the room.

Lady Hou was knowledgeable about fragrances; she could tell what it was all about just by smelling it.

"What a brilliant scheme! What a brilliant scheme!" Lady Hou laughed sarcastically.

Such a potent aphrodisiac—it's a miracle whether Young Master Shen remains calm under pressure or not.

Just then, the disheveled woman and the maid who was being trampled under Feng Chang's feet both committed suicide.

The blood flowing from the corner of his mouth was black.

Sheng Yuan reacted quickly and reached out to block Feng Yun's view, but Feng Yun still managed to see a little bit.

"To commit suicide by poison." Feng Yun muttered unconsciously, his vision obscured.

The spring banquet ended on a sour note, leaving many young ladies from wealthy families terrified.

Shen Qiwei watched as the guests left, but he stayed behind. He thought that his Ayan must have been very frightened today, so he wanted to stay and say a few words to her.

"Does Awei stay behind because she has something to say?"

Feng Yunyan's eyes were still red; she hadn't calmed down from her sadness.

“I think you must have been frightened by what happened today.” Shen Qiwei handed the note to Feng Yunyan. “A maid said that Ayan was looking for me and handed me a note. I found it strange and was afraid that you had something urgent to attend to, so I wanted to go and take a look, but Brother Feng Yun stopped me. Fortunately, I didn’t fall for his trick.”

Shen Qiwei suddenly realized he had gone off-topic, so he said, "Ayan, everything I said before was from the bottom of my heart. I... I promise there will be no one else. From now on, it will only be the two of us to spend the rest of our lives together. Even if I inherit the title of Duke's Mansion, I will never change my original intention!"

When Shen Qiwei was in mourning, he also came to the Marquis's mansion to ask Feng Yunyan to wait for him for three years.

He truly loved Feng Yunyan for many years, and he didn't want to miss out.

Feng Yunyan was just listening to today's schemes when she heard Shen Qiwei say this. Her face turned red instantly, and even her personal maid and the servant next to Shen Qiwei blushed and chuckled.

“I know Awei’s true feelings, and my heart is the same.” Feng Yunyan lowered her head and replied shyly, then quickly said, “It’s getting late, Young Master Shen, you should go back soon.”

After saying that, he forgot to even bow and ran back to the courtyard.

Shen Qiwei looked in the direction where Feng Yunyan's figure had disappeared, then lowered his head and laughed.

"Young master, the carriage is ready, we should go," the servant beside Shen Qiwei reminded him.

Shen Qiwei then stopped laughing and replied seriously, "Let's go."

On the carriage back to the manor, Feng Yun looked listless, probably because he was frightened.

Sheng Yuan hugged him and gently patted his back.

There were only Feng Yun and Sheng Yuan in the carriage. Feng Yun sat sideways on Sheng Yuan's lap without any hesitation, naturally leaning against Sheng Yuan and tightly gripping Sheng Yuan's clothes with both hands.

Feng Yun was indeed frightened, but what caught his attention even more was this scheme and plot.

"Who would want to ruin this marriage?"

Who would benefit most from ruining this marriage and causing discord between the Duke of Shen's mansion and the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion?

Sheng Yuan reached out and stroked his cheek. "If you were in danger and received a sturdy net, would you use it?"

“If we can survive, we’ll naturally use whatever we have,” Feng Yun replied.

"But now that the danger is over, this large net could very well threaten your safety, just like dealing with a dangerous enemy. Would you destroy it?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Yun sat up straight and stared at him with wide eyes.

"If you want to destroy a sturdy net, the easiest way is to cut the joints. Once there's a hole, it's no longer sturdy, and you won't accidentally hurt yourself."

Sheng Yuan's words were calm, but they sent a chill down Feng Yun's spine.

The merit of following the emperor, the tendency to be suspicious, the high merit that threatens the emperor, and the killing of the dog after the rabbit is caught.

Sheng Yuan reached out and pulled Feng Yun back into his arms. "This is just my guess. Perhaps it's just something that minister did out of jealousy."

"Hmm," Feng Yun replied in a low voice.

He couldn't believe it, but he remembered something: if his elder sister lost her engagement, she would have to enter the palace for the imperial concubine selection.

The selection of concubines in the imperial harem is a way to keep the officials of the court in check. My eldest sister is the legitimate daughter of the Feng family. If she enters the palace, she will definitely keep my father and elder brother in check.

If it is truly His Majesty, then His Majesty is untrustworthy, and this palace is even more unsafe to enter.

Today's situation is ruined. In a couple of days, my eldest sister will get married and everything will be fine. But my half-sister and cousin from the Liu family are not engaged yet. What should I do?

They are all family members connected to him by blood.

"I hope they can live according to their own wishes."

As Feng Yun spoke, he nuzzled against Sheng Yuan's neck, his arms tightening around him, as if holding him closer would make him feel more at ease.

"What is destined to be yours will be yours, and what is not, you cannot force. Just do your best and take it one step at a time." Sheng Yuan hugged him tighter as he moved.

Changing one's fate can be easy or difficult, depending on how you look at it.

Sometimes, changing one's choices leads to a different way of life.

But who you choose and how you choose them are part of who you are, so how easy is it to change that?
