After rebirth, she killed her best friend and took over the scumbag's kingdom

Although Feng Tingjing outside the door could not hear the conversation inside, his clenched fists showed his inner tension and anxiety.

She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that after meeting Li Meir, Eunuch Yu would say a few good words to the Emperor, and finally the Emperor would really issue an edict to confer the title of Empress on Li Meir.

Rendong looked at Feng Tingjing strangely, not understanding why he was so nervous.

In her opinion, the one who should be nervous should be Li Meir.

Finally, the door slowly opened and Eunuch Yu walked out with a complicated expression on his face.

"The girl is indeed innocent." Eunuch Yu's voice made Feng Tingjing and Li Meir feel relieved.

Eunuch Yu looked at Feng Tingjing and said, "Sir Feng, don't say that I didn't give you a heads up. A beauty like Li Mei'er will definitely be favored by the emperor once she enters the palace. But she comes from a brothel after all, and she comes from your family. You have to find a way to change her background. That way, the emperor will also be proud, right? Otherwise, if the emperor favors a brothel girl, how will people in the world view the emperor?"

Feng Tingjing's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly asked Eunuch Yu for advice.

Eunuch Yu gave him a suggestion: "Prince Duan also mentioned that he could ask Old Lady Feng to adopt her as her adopted daughter. In this way, your Lord Feng's adopted sister will naturally bring you endless wealth and glory when she enters the palace."

Hearing this, Feng Tingjing was so excited that he was speechless. He seemed to have seen a beautiful scene in the future where he would have a sister who would be a royal concubine and plan his career for her in the palace.

After father-in-law Yu left, Feng Tingjing hurried to the yard of Old Lady Feng in the backyard.

His expression was solemn, but the slightly trembling hands in his sleeves could hardly conceal his inner excitement.

As soon as he saw Old Madam Feng, Feng Tingjing said straight to the point: "Mother, I have something to discuss with you."

Seeing her son being so serious, Old Lady Feng felt nervous and asked hurriedly, "Ting Jing, why are you so serious?"

Feng Tingjing took a deep breath and said slowly: "The emperor has developed an interest in Li Mei'er and intends to let her enter the palace. However, Mei'er is of humble status and may have difficulty entering the palace. Therefore, I would like to ask mother for permission to adopt Mei'er as my adopted daughter and let her become a member of the Feng family. This way, her path to entering the palace will be much smoother."

When Old Madam Feng heard this, she was so shocked that she could hardly believe her ears.

She widened her eyes and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you telling the truth? Did the emperor really fall in love with that brothel girl?"

Feng Tingjing nodded and confirmed: "It is absolutely true. Just now, Eunuch Yu has gone to the Bihua Pavilion and...he also examined Mei'er's body."

Madam Feng looked at him in confusion and asked, "Examination...examination? Why would a eunuch like him do this? Why not let a maid go?"

Feng Tingjing interrupted his mother immediately: "Mom, please don't worry about it. Our whole family will still need to rely on your father-in-law in the future. It doesn't matter who you are. Besides, Mei'er is just a prostitute, there is no need to be so taboo."

Madam Feng was choked by her son's words. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Is it your idea to take Li Mei'er as your adopted daughter, or is it Master Yu's idea?"

Feng Tingjing explained: "Eunuch Yu said it was Prince Duan's suggestion, and Eunuch Yu also thought it was a good idea. Mei'er needs to change her identity, and the emperor's face also needs to be taken care of."

After being shocked, Madam Feng's face gradually showed surprise.

She thought that if the Feng family could marry into the royal family, it would undoubtedly greatly enhance the family's status and reputation.

So she agreed repeatedly: "Okay, okay, this is a good idea! Tingjing, go and choose an auspicious day, we will open the ancestral hall and record the family tree, and then invite Mei'er to come over, and our family will have a simple meal to celebrate."

Feng Tingjing said, "Let's choose tomorrow for this matter. We'll record it in the family tree so that Eunuch Yu can send a letter to the emperor as soon as possible."

Madam Feng agreed repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we have to hurry up on this matter. If one day the emperor suddenly wakes up and starts to dislike Li Mei'er's identity as a prostitute, we will get nothing."

After saying that, Old Madam Feng instructed the maid beside her: "Go and take out the head ornaments and jewelry at the bottom of my box, and give Mei'er some floating cloud gauze. Since she is going to be the daughter of our Feng family, we naturally cannot treat her badly."

Feng Tingjing was grateful upon seeing this.

He knew that his mother was thinking about the future of the Feng family and also about his future.

He solemnly promised: "Don't worry, mother. I will definitely handle this matter well and let Li Meier become a helper of the Feng family."

Madam Feng sighed and said earnestly, "Since the emperor has set his eyes on Li Mei'er, you must keep your thoughts to yourself. She is the emperor's woman now. I heard that Li Mei'er is not an ordinary brothel girl. No man can escape her charm."

Feng Tingjing nodded in agreement, but he was secretly thinking about how to properly handle the matter so as to satisfy the emperor's wishes and ensure that the interests of the Feng family were not harmed.

"Mother, don't worry. I understand the situation. My son is having a hard time in the officialdom. I'm counting on Li Mei'er to help me put in a good word with the emperor and get through this difficult time."

Madam Feng nodded slightly, "Minjing will still be in charge of tomorrow's family recognition. You can discuss the specific details with your wife. I am too old to take care of it."

"Yes, son, I'll take my leave first. Please take care of yourself, mother." Feng Ting responded respectfully.

After leaving Madam Feng's yard, Feng Tingjing hurried to Lu Minjing's yard.

He knew that tomorrow's recognition ceremony was related to the Feng family's reputation and had to be foolproof.

However, time is quite tight, and all this requires Lu Minjing to prepare.

When I walked into the room, I saw Lu Minjing sitting at the table eating.

Although the food on the table was not rich, it exuded a warm atmosphere.

Feng Tingjing's arrival surprised Lu Minjing. She raised her head and asked with a smile, "Master, have you had your meal?"

Feng Tingjing nodded, his tone was a little tired but he could not hide his excitement: "I just ate some at my mother's place, but not much. Since Madam has something ready, I will accompany Madam to eat some more."

Upon hearing this, Lu Minjing quickly stood up to help him get the bowl and chopsticks and gently placed them on the table.

After Feng Tingjing sat down, he began to savor the food on the table carefully, as if trying to calm the excitement in his heart.

After a while, he put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "I just went to discuss something with my mother. My mother has agreed to let Li Meier become her adopted daughter."

He paused, then continued, "Tomorrow we will open the ancestral hall to record the family tree and officially recognize this adopted sister. From now on, you will be her sister-in-law. Then, our family will have a simple meal to celebrate."

Lu Minjing showed a happy smile on her face and asked quietly, "Eunuch Yu came to visit today. Has the emperor already made a decision?"

Feng Tingjing nodded and said, "It was Eunuch Yu who suggested that mother adopt Mei'er as her adopted daughter. He believed that with Li Mei'er's beauty, she would definitely be favored in the future. Our wealth and honor are still to come."

"Tomorrow's recognition ceremony will be handled by Madam. I know you will be able to do it perfectly."

Lu Minjing smiled slightly: "Master, don't worry, I will do my best to make tomorrow's recognition ceremony perfect."
