Chapter 169 Yun Kaizhou threatens to ask for a dowry
The old doctor stroked his beard, knowing that there was a ceremony to adopt a daughter at Feng Mansion today, and he also heard that this matter was inextricably linked to the palace.
Facing Lu Minjing's anxious expression, he slowly said, "Madam, there is a solution, but it is quite difficult."
Lu Minjing's heart suddenly tightened, and she asked anxiously: "Doctor, please tell me what the solution is? As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I am willing to try it!"
The old doctor pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that there is a secret ointment for scar removal in the palace. It was specially developed by the Imperial Hospital for the ladies in the harem. This ointment has miraculous effects. If you can get a portion, maybe you can save Miss Feng's face."
After hearing this, Lu Minjing's eyes flashed with surprise, but then dimmed again.
She thought of Li Meir, who was about to enter the palace and become an empress. Did she really have to ask that vixen for help?
This made her feel very unwilling, but for the sake of her daughter's future, she had to humble herself and ask Li Meir for help.
However, Li Meir has not yet entered the palace, so Lu Minjing's attention turned to Eunuch Yu.
She bit her lower lip tightly. After sending the old doctor away, she originally planned to find Feng Tingjing immediately, hoping to ask Eunuch Yu for some scar removal cream through him to heal the scars on Ruoyan's face.
Just as she reached the door, Lu Minjing suddenly felt dizzy and her body fell forward uncontrollably.
The maid exclaimed and hurried forward to support her: "Madam, what's wrong with you?"
The old lady looked extremely anxious. She waved her arms and shouted urgently, "Quick! Quick! Go and get the old doctor back! Quick!"
The maids and nurses around hurriedly helped Lu Minjing up and put her on the bed.
At this moment, in the front yard of Feng Mansion, Feng Tingjing had no idea that his backyard was already in chaos.
With a smile on his face, he raised his glass to toast Yun Kaizhou and Eunuch Yu, "My Lord, your fate with my daughter is truly destined by heaven! I am deeply grateful that you saved Qiongzhu!"
Yun Kaizhou laughed and said, "Lord Feng, my feelings for Qiongzhu are sincere. I originally went to Hengtian Mountain to seek medical advice from Taoist Qingxuan, but I didn't expect that I could accidentally save Qiongzhu who fell off a cliff. This prince sincerely wants to marry Miss Feng as his principal wife and make her the prince consort of my Prince Duan's mansion."
Eunuch Yu nodded and agreed: "The fate of the prince and Miss Feng is indeed a match made in heaven. Lord Feng, you are about to become the father-in-law of Prince Duan, which is a supreme honor! In addition, your sister-in-law is about to enter the palace as a concubine, your family is really blessed with double happiness, and your future is limitless!"
Feng Tingjing was overjoyed when he heard this. He stood up and bowed deeply to Yun Kaizhou and Eunuch Yu: "My Lord, Eunuch Yu, thank you for your kindness. It is a blessing for Qiongzhu to be favored by the Lord, and it is also an honor for our Feng family."
Yun Kaizhou suppressed the smile on his face and said seriously, "Lord Feng, I heard that Qiongzhu's biological mother passed away when she was young, but she left a very generous dowry. According to the laws of the court, this dowry should be inherited by biological children, and Qiongzhu's biological mother is the only daughter. Since Qiongzhu has decided to marry me, the dowry should be returned to her."
Feng Tingjing's heart sank when he heard this.
He knew very well that the daily expenses of the mansion, and even the seemingly glamorous occasions, were all barely maintained by the dowry left by the original wife.
Now that Yun Kaizhou mentioned this matter, there is no doubt that he wants to reveal the Feng family's last trump card and leave them nowhere to hide.
He put down the wine glass in his hand, trying to calm the panic in his heart, with a barely perceptible tremor in his voice: "Sir, this matter... this matter is indeed a bit complicated. Although the dowry belongs to Qiongzhu in name, the expenses of the mansion have been dependent on it for so many years. If it is all returned to Qiongzhu at once, I am afraid it will affect the normal operation of the mansion."
After saying this, Feng Tingjing felt that his back was wet and cold sweat was dripping down.
Yun Kaizhou looked at him coldly, "So you used the dowry left by Qiongzhu's biological mother to live a luxurious life, but threw her alone to a remote farm, so that she never had a full meal or new clothes since she was a child. When I rescued her, she was starving and only skin and bones were left. The Qiongzhu that Lord Feng sees now was replenished by me with a large amount of expensive supplements, even the hundred-year-old ginseng, and I don't know how many roots the Prince Duan's Mansion used."
"Lord Feng, you'd better not bargain with me. Qiongzhu will soon become my Crown Prince's Consort, and her dowry will naturally be part of the Crown Prince's Mansion. If you don't even understand this, don't blame me for being rude."
Feng Tingjing's face turned pale and blue, he knew that what Yun Kaizhou said was true.
But he knew better than ever that if they lost the dowry, the Feng family would be in such a predicament.
He was extremely anxious, but he had no idea what to do. He could only bite the bullet and continue to explain: "Master Yun, you don't know that the expenses in this mansion are really huge. If this amount of money is suddenly missing, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it will be a mess."
Yun Kaizhou waved his hand impatiently: "Master Feng, I have no intention of interfering in your family affairs. But the issue of Qiongzhu's dowry must be resolved. I will give you three days to return all the dowry to Qiongzhu. Otherwise, don't blame me for taking other measures."
After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Feng Tingjing standing there, his face ashen, but his heart surging with waves.
He knew that they were in real trouble this time. If they didn't find a way to solve it, the Feng family might really face a catastrophe.
Feng Tingjing was extremely anxious and turned his gaze to Eunuch Yu, who had been staying out of the matter and seemed to be watching the show from the side.
His tone could not help but become more serious, "Eunuch Yu, this matter is of great importance, you can't just stand by and watch!"
Feng Tingjing said in an almost pleading tone: "This Prince Duan has a tough attitude and is very aggressive in asking for a dowry. How can this be considered an ordinary request for a dowry? I'm afraid his purpose is not simple. Perhaps, like the emperor, he is looking for something important. You should know the interests involved better than anyone else, eunuch."
Eunuch Yu had been sitting quietly, his vicious eyes seemed to have seen through Feng Tingjing's little thoughts.
He frowned slightly, as if thinking about Feng Tingjing's words.
After a while, Eunuch Yu finally spoke up, "Master Feng, what you said is true. The actions of Prince Duan are indeed puzzling. However, this matter involves the royal family's family affairs and the emperor's wishes. I cannot make a decision lightly."
Eunuch Yu paused, as if weighing the pros and cons. "However, what you said makes sense. I must report this matter to the emperor and listen to his opinion. As for you, you should first organize the dowry. After all, Prince Duan will not let it go."
