Asking to Marry a Secondary Wife

Song and dance played jubilantly in the Jade Hall, yet Feng Yuheng left stealthily . When she arrived outside the hall, she immediately found a place devoid of people to hide herself, moving quickly towards Winter Moon Palace .

She did not have any other purpose for going there, it was just that Imperial Concubine Yun told her that she wanted the white tiger to be stolen out and sent to Chun Palace to keep her company . With her entering the palace today, she wanted to take the opportunity to accomplish this .

The Winter Moon Palace was deserted, forming a vivid contrast to the liveliness in Jade Hall . Not everyone knew that there was no master in this palace, and as expected, only a few close servants knew this, guarding the sleeping quarters every day, sending in the meals just like usual, Then announcing to the outside that Her Highness Imperial Concubine Yun was in a bad mood and did not wish to see anyone .

This reason made sense, after all everyone knew that the Emperor was wholeheartedly showing his love to the Eighth Prince mother and son pair and had already pushed Imperial Concubine Yun to the back of his mind . It was understandable that Imperial Concubine Yun would be in a bad mood . In addition, Imperial Concubine Yun’s usual personality was a little strange and temperamental, throwing a tantrum over this development was considered normal, so no one suspected anything .

When Feng Yuheng reached, that white tiger was currently lying down in its cage and sleeping . It was still very wary . When it heard someone enter, it would immediately open its eyes and show a fierce appearance . But when it realised the person who came was Feng Yuheng, its whole tiger-like behaviour changed, immediately becoming endearing and continuously jumping forward . If not for the fact that the cage was closed, it might just jump onto Feng Yuheng directly to display its charms .

In the end, this white tiger also had a rather hard time . In the prefecture’s main manor in the past, it could play freely and occasionally get loving hugs from Feng Yuheng . Ever since it came to Winter Moon Palace, ever since it grew bigger, it could only live in the cage . Even if it knew very clearly that it really did not like to eat people, no one would believe it .

Seeing that white tiger’s gaze, Feng Yuheng would roughly guess what it was thinking, thus she held out a hand and stroked its huge head a few times, speaking softly: “Be good, Xiao Bai, I know you had a hard time . I will bring you out of here and you can see that beautiful Her Highness Imperial Concubine Yun very soon, then someone can play with you . ”

Xiao Bai trembled, Her Highness Imperial Concubine Yun? The way she played was a little special! Hoho, actually wanting to treat it as a mount, that woman could really think of such ideas . But thinking about it again, forget it, being a mount was still better than being caged here, it was going to get bored to death .

Therefore it nodded to accept its fate, then felt its vision blur . The tiger with its cage was brought to a strange Space, and Feng Yuheng’s voice rang in its ear: “Wait here for a while, we will leave the palace together some time later . ”

Successfully putting Xiao Bai into her Space, Feng Yuheng immediately moved to return to Jade Hall . Before returning to the front of the Hall, she saw the Seventh Prince Xuan Tianhua standing outside the Hall, standing with both hands clasped behind his back, worry showing on his face .

She approached quickly and spoke first: “Seventh Brother, why are you standing here? It is very cold outside . ”

Xuan Tianhua glanced at her and said directly: “Managing Imperial Concubine Yuan Gui’s physical condition, you can really think of such ideas . Do you know that Gu techniques are pervasive? You know the dangers associated with this?”

She nodded, speaking honestly: “I understand it all, but this cannot be dragged on any longer . If Father Emperor continues like this, I will not be the only one in danger . I have already made up my mind, Seventh Brother does not have to advise me again . ” Her words were determined, representing her determined will . There was even some irritation mixed into her emotions . Such a good Emperor was harmed to this extent, once she investigated the truth, those people who were involved, she swore that she would not let off any one of them .

“Alright, I won’t . ” Xuan Tianhua nodded and did not say anything more about this, but also told her: “Earlier, Ming-er mentioned to Father Emperor about allowing Zirui to leave the palace with us tonight . Unfortunately, Father Emperor did not allow it . ”

“I expected this . ” Feng Yuheng sighed, and said exasperatedly: “Since it is not allowed, then he can only stay for one more night . Tomorrow night, I will think of a way to get Zirui out of the palace, creating an illusion of Zirui’s disappearance . At that time, I will ask for Seventh Brother to play along and ask Father Emperor to look for Zirui and push the responsibility of being unable to secure the palace onto Old Eighth . ”

Xuan Tianhua was dazed and asked on reflex: “You can hide Zirui in an absolutely safe place? No one can find him?”

Feng Yuheng nodded, “I can . ”

He did not ask any more, only saying: “Do not worry, I will do the best I can to play along . ”

Returning to the imperial banquet, the atmosphere felt a little off . The line of sight of the Eighth Prince Xuan Tianmo kept moving towards the table Feng Yuheng was at, falling onto where Xiangrong was . Xiangrong was rather uneasy, with such a blatant stare, she would have some realisation regardless of how oblivious she was . Moreover, Xuan Tiange even said: “Why does he keep looking at Xiangrong?”

Xiangrong shifted toward Feng Yuheng subconsciously . Her hands were cold and she was pale . She had a very bad feeling, making it hard for her to breathe . She then looked towards Xuan Tianhua subconsciously and he also happened to be looking in her direction . As their eyes met, Xiangrong’s anxious feelings intensified . She told Feng Yuheng softly: “I want to speak to His Highness the Seventh Prince, Second Sister, how do I ask him to go out?”

Feng Yuheng understood Xiangrong’s feelings . When a girl sensed danger, the first person she would want to seek protection from was from the person she liked . Unfortunately…… “It’s too late . ”

She only had time to say this sentence . Hearing the song and dance stop, Xuan Tianmo, who was sitting on the crown prince seat opposite had already stood up, telling the Emperor: “Father Emperor, with it being the New Year today, This Son has a request, and I hope Father Emperor will agree . ”

“Oh?” The Emperor became spirited again, “What request does Mo-er have? Speak! No matter what it is, We will consent to all of it . ”

When the Emperor said, “consent to all of it”, Xiangrong suddenly trembled and her face paled even further . She felt that the Eighth Prince’s request was likely to be related to her . But he was a prince and the Emperor was supporting him, once the topic she did not want to hear the most was mentioned, what should she do?

Xuan Tianhua also frowned after the words from the Emperor . Next to him, Xuan Tianming said to him softly: “Imperial Concubine Mother said that she wanted to confirm the matters between you and Xiangrong as soon as possible . I thought it was too hasty, but seeing this now, it appears that we were too slow to act . ”

Xuan Tianhua ignored him, but thought about things for a while, then shook his head slightly at Xiangrong, asking her to stay calm .

And at this moment, Xuan Tianmo’s voice was heard again, he said: “This Son wishes to marry a woman as a secondary wife, I seek Father Emperor’s approval . ”

With his sentence, everyone was in an uproar .

The Eighth Prince wanted to ask for a woman? And as a secondary wife? Who was it?

Though the position of a secondary wife was very different from a first wife, a secondary wife was still a wife . She might be a prince’s wife and it was not that high of a position . But being the Eighth Prince’s secondary wife was different . This Eighth Prince would inherit the throne in the future, once the secondary wife enters the palace, she would be ranked after the Empress and at least needed to be given the position of Imperial Concubine Gui . Therefore, being the Eighth Prince’s wife was what everyone wanted for their own daughter, seeing him actively ask for a marriage, for a while, everyone started to guess who would be the one who would be proposed to?

The Emperor was also very interested . Holding Imperial Concubine Yuan Gui’s hand, he leaned forward to ask Xuan Tianmo: “Which family’s daughter did Mo-er set your sights on? You are not young anymore, there is a need to take in a wife . Not just a secondary wife, even a first wife should be taken in . If it is someone you truly like, you can just take in a first wife . As long as you are happy, We will consent to it . ”

Xuan Tianmo shook his head, saying: “This Son is only asking for a secondary wife, That girl is only a daughter of a concubine and cannot obtain the position of first wife . Father Emperor just needs to consent to This Son taking in a secondary wife . ”

“Un . ” The Emperor nodded, “Then speak, which family’s young lady is it?”

Xuan Tianmo glanced to the side, his gaze directed at Xiangrong again, saying at the same time: “The daughter of the concubine of the Feng family, younger sister of Princess Yu, Feng Xiangrong . ”

“Her?”

“It’s actually her?”

Everyone started to discuss, all of them with widened eyes expressing their disbelief . But the people who had quick minds immediately understood the intentions of this Eighth Prince . Keeping Princess Yu’s closest sister at his side was the same as obtaining a hostage! In addition, it was just a secondary wife, a prince could have many secondary wives .

The Emperor did not expect that his “most loved” Eighth Son would actually like a lowly daughter of a concubine and a daughter of the Feng family, he was a little surprised . But it was nothing, it was just a secondary wife, naturally his son would want whoever he liked, there was nothing strange . But he still asked his beloved concubine beside him: “Beloved concubine, what do you think?”

Imperial Concubine Yuan Gui knew Xuan Tianmo’s intentions and approved of it greatly . Hearing the Emperor ask her at this moment, she looked towards Feng Xiangrong and successfully saw Feng Xiangrong’s pale complexion and Feng Yuheng’s angry gaze directed at her . So she said with a smile: “The Third Miss of the Feng family is Princess Yu’s younger sister, This Concubine believes that Feng family’s Third Miss would be just like Princess Yu and has good character, This Concubine hopes that Your Majesty can agree to Mo-er’s request . ”

“Haha!” The Emperor laughed out loud, “Our Mo-er has finally been enlightened! Alright, since you like it, then We will consent, there is no woman Our Mo-er cannot marry under this sky!”

With one sentence, this marriage was decided . From the beginning to the end, no one asked Xiangrong if she was willing or not, as if she did not exist . As if she was an object, if Xuan Tianmo likes it, it would be bought, refusal was not allowed .

Xiangrong was angry and afraid, with one of her hands grabbing onto the other so hard that blood could be seen . Feng Yuheng grasped her hand gently, telling her softly: “Don’t be afraid, His Highness the Seventh Prince will think of something . ”

This sentence was just said and the Seventh Prince had not done anything yet . Instead, they heard the Fourth Prince Xuan Tianyi suddenly shout: “Wait a moment!” Then he staggered forward, looking anxious, kneeling towards the Emperor, saying: “Father Emperor, please do not make a hasty decision, This Son also wishes to wed the Feng family’s Third Miss Feng Xiangrong as a first wife!”

The people were in an uproar once again, saying why was this Feng family’s Third Miss suddenly so popular? She was just a lowly daughter of a concubine, it was fine if the Eighth Prince wanted her as a hostage, but why was this Fourth Prince getting involved? And he was asking for a first wife? A daughter of a concubine from a lowly family could become the first wife of a prince?

For a while, Xiangrong became the focus of everyone present, everyone was looking towards her, including Feng Fendai who was sitting in the corner .

Fendai did not expect that there would be such an incident in the imperial banquet today, but that was fine, the two of them can fight! It would be best if they both fought until both sides were injured, then she could reap some benefits from this commotion . It was just that she still felt some ache in her heart, she did not know the source of this pain, but she could not help but think of the people in the Feng Manor in the past and asked herself: “Grandmother, father, if both of you were still alive, could you have expected today’s situation? Could you have expected the daughters of the Feng family actually becoming what you wished for, becoming people who could influence court politics? It’s just that this situation now, is not what we wanted……”
