Chapter 521 A Scheme, Yu Feng’s Suggestion

“Look at you, why are you still trying to take revenge on them?” Seeing that Yu Mingyong still didn’t listen to her, Consort Yu raised her voice and gritted her teeth angrily. She couldn’t help heavily patting him a few more times.

“Ouch, Elder Sister how could you hit me when I’m already wounded? Anyway, I can’t swallow my pride. So what if I’m in this state? The He family has never had a good time. I heard that they have been driven away by King Xuan from his house. It’s now the time to strike them when they are down. Why can’t I seek revenge for myself? I just don’t believe that Consort Zhao in the palace dare to openly help them when something like this has happened.”

Yu Mingyong’s voice grew louder and louder and he felt more and more rational. It was rare for him to look at Consort Yu so forcefully and insist on his plan. He had been framed over and over again recently and was already full of anger. He vented all his anger on the He family. He felt that he would not be able to dispel the hatred in his heart if he did not destroy the He family.

Although his words were tough, at his last few words, Consort Yu immediately frowned and did not say anything.

Yu Mingyong, who was familiar with his elder sister’s character, was overjoyed when he saw her expression. Knowing that there was a chance, he hurriedly winked at Yu Feng, who was standing by the side.

Yu Feng understood immediately when he saw that. He took two steps forward and said respectfully, “Your Highness, what First Young Master said makes sense. I have investigated the matter. The incident has just happened and the He family has been chased away by King Xuan. They are like dogs that have lost their homes now. Now that they dared to plot against a prince’s first consort, Consort Zhao in the palace won’t dare to speak up for them. If anything happens to them now, others will all think that King Xuan has done it. After all, he is a man who is law-defying.”

Consort Yu was a little tempted by his words. She blinked her beautiful eyes and felt that it was a good idea.

She had long seen Consort Zhao as an eyesore! Now, she felt even more uncomfortable as if she had been pricked by a thorn.

It was said that the Emperor had been in favor of her for many years, and she was the Emperor’s favorite woman. Consort Yu had wanted to form an alliance with her. She intentionally showed her kindness to Consort Zhao, and even brought Consort Zhao to the Empress Dowager’s palace to pay her respects, hoping to lure her into the Empress Dowager’s side. Moreover, she thought that it wasn’t bad for her younger brother to marry Consort Zhao’s niece. At the very least, she could collect Consort Zhao.

In the future, when the little prince in her belly was born, he would be protected by more people.

But unexpectedly, before they got closer, an accident happened at the banquet. It was not He Yuxiu’s fault at first, but Consort Zhao pushed the blame to He Yuxiu in order to save He Yufen. Who was He Yuxiu? She was her future sister-in-law. Her brother was already very disappointing, and if he married a woman who was a shameless thief, the family was all ruined.

Consort Yu was on the verge of falling out with Consort Zhao at the time. It was because He Yuxiu hadn’t married her brother yet and could only be considered Consort Zhao’s family.

Then, she vented all her anger on Ling Rui’er, who was the cause of the incident. She asked Feng Yuzhen to frame Ling Rui’er. On the one hand, it was for Yu Mingyong’s sake, and on the other hand, she tried to create animosity between Ling Rui’er and King Chu, Feng Yuxuan, so as to help Feng Yuzhen gain benefits.

In the palace, Consort Yu and Consort Zhao were a little at odds with each other.

With He Yuxiu’s disappearance, the marriage between the Yu Manor and the He Manor had been blown up. Consort Yu did not find it a pity. In fact, she really hoped that something would happen to He Yuxiu. She really did not want her younger brother to marry that woman. However, since Yu Mingyong had taken a fancy to her, she could not force him not to marry her. As such, it was the best outcome.

Since she and Consort Zhao could not stand on the same line, it would be better to see through her opponent earlier. There was no need for too much involvement.

But she didn’t expect that the He family would dare to plot against her brother.

If the He family succeeded this time, Yu Mingyong and she would have a hard time. Thinking of this, Consort Yu could not control the anger which arose in the pit of her stomach. She did not believe that the He family would dare to harm her younger brother and her, her brother’s backer. The plan had been made so carefully, so how could the He family, who had just come to the capital, have been so powerful to plant people at King Xuan’s Manor?

If it was not the He family, who had such extraordinary abilities and such a close relationship with the He family?

There was only one answer: Consort Zhao!

“How dare that bitch scheme against me? Does she really think that my family has no people?”

Consort Yu’s gaze landed on Yu Feng when she thought of that. A deep look flashed across her eyes. She had wanted to make Yu Feng her backing earlier. Yu Feng looked very smart and he had a good official position in other places in the past. It was said that he would be given power in the capital. He was a rare talent.

However, she didn’t expect that something would happen to Auntie Fang. Not only did Consort Yu not manage to gain anything from it, but she had also been reprimanded by the Emperor. As such, Consort Yu ignored Yu Feng and treated him like a useless chess piece. When she listened to him carefully, she felt that it was very reasonable. Then she thought of something.

She fixed her eyes on her younger brother’s face again. She knew clearly about her younger brother’s situation. He was a rogue. He did everything by virtue of his likes and dislikes, and he was also a lecherous man. No one in the manor could control his temper. Although he sometimes listened to her, how could she, a consort, always see her younger brother?

She had to find someone to watch and remind him.

“Elder Sister, please promise me. If Yu Feng hadn’t stopped me, I would have sent men to deal with them. The reason why I waited was that I wanted you to give me an idea. I can’t make things difficult for you.” Yu Mingyong reached out to pull Consort Yu’s sleeve, all smiles.

This reminded Consort Yu of her little brother in the past. Her heart immediately softened and she gave a sigh.

However, she ignored him and turned to look at Yu Feng. She said lightly, “Sir Yu, what do you think we should do?”

Yu Feng was pleased when he heard Consort Yu asking him seriously. Afraid that Consort Yu would see through his emotion, he hurriedly saluted respectfully and hid the joy in his eyes before replying, “Your Highness, I also think that First Young Master’s idea is not bad, but you cannot act rashly. So I especially advised him to listen to Your Highness before making a decision. If something were to happen to the He family while First Young Master is lying in bed, no one would think that it is First Young Master.”

On the one hand, he explained he was of use to Yu Mingyong. On the other hand, he also hinted that Yu Mingyong was injured now. Even if something were to happen to the He family, others would only suspect that King Xuan, Feng Yuran, had tried to kill them and would not suspect Yu Mingyong, who could not even get up from the bed. Furthermore, Yu Mingyong had always been a reckless person who was not that smart.

He was incapable of careful calculation.

A hint of calculation flashed through Consort Yu’s eyes. She secretly thought about the feasibility of this matter and slowly understood the meaning behind it. She then said softly, “Kill the two of the He family?”

There were only two masters left in the He family. One’s daughter was missing and the other’s daughter was said to have been sent to a brothel by King Xuan.

“Your Highness, you don’t have to beat them to death. It will be boring if you beat them to death,” Yu Feng said this with satisfaction. He knew that Consort Yu had accepted his suggestion and decided to keep her guessing.

He was very pleased with himself right now. Consort Yu’s attitude had softened, and she had even asked him about it, implying that she wanted to collect him again. He had been in a state of panic all this while, and now, he could heave a sigh of relief. He felt as if he had found a new master. Furthermore, his master looked at him with admiration. How could he not be overjoyed?

Yu Mingyong was unhappy. He glared at Yu Feng and snapped, “If we don’t beat them to death, how to vent my anger?”

“First Young Master, don’t worry. We can’t be rushed. If you really kill the two He family members, Consort Zhao in the palace will definitely intervene in this matter. Although King Xuan’s Manor and the He family have been separated, there is still a blood relationship between the two families. If you really kill his uncles, perhaps King Xuan may not be happy,” Yu Feng hurriedly explained and tried to comfort Yu Mingyong.

He did not dare to offend this man right now. Compared to Consort Yu, this man was much easier to deal with.

“Then how to vent my anger?” The more Yu Mingyong thought of the He family, the angrier he became. Putting aside the fact that his fiancée had been changed many times, the He family lost his fiancée in the end, and even dared to plot against him, causing him nearly to lose his life. How could Yu Mingyong not want to kill the two men of the He family?

“Since First Young Master doesn’t die, we can cripple them,” Yu Feng said meaningfully. Even though he was speaking to Yu Mingyong, he explained to Consort Yu, “Your Highness, if the two of the He family are attacked and crippled, no one will care about it considering the fact that the He family once tried to frame King Xuan. Then they will definitely look for Consort Zhao’s help in desperation. This way, Consort Zhao and King Xuan will be at odds with each other.”

He had spoken so clearly that Consort Yu understood immediately. A smile of admiration appeared at the corners of her eyes as she nodded.

Yu Mingyong couldn’t understand what he meant, but she completely understood!

Consort Zhao did not have a son and was King Xuan, Feng Yuran’s aunt, so she must be very close to him. Consort Yu now realized that Consort Zhao tried to harm Mo Xuetong but didn’t harm Feng Yuran because she wanted to drag Consort Xuan off the position and make her niece replace her to be Consort Xuan.

King Xuan was Consort Zhao’s nephew and He Yufen was her niece, and they were close to her. In this case, she would control King Xuan’s Manor in the future. That was why Consort Zhao had come up with such a plot to frame Mo Xuetong. Of course, she did not forget to frame her. If her younger brother died in King Xuan’s hands, then the enmity between her and King Xuan would be formed.

“That bitch Consort Zhao is truly sinister and shrewd.”

Consort Yu nodded. She already had a plan in mind. She looked at Yu Feng and said, “Alright, it will be up to you. Sir Yu, you will be in charge of this.”

“Yes, I will obey Master’s order.” Yu Feng was delighted and immediately called her “master”, hinting that he would be loyal to Consort Yu. Consort Yu was even more satisfied with what he said. She knew that he was a smart person. If he did not have a sister who was not sensible, he would have done many things for her, and would not have been in such a poor condition like he was today.

Thinking of Yu Feng’s younger sister, Consort Yu could not help but ask, “How’s your sister who is other’s concubine? Is she still staying at your home?”

She was just mentioning it casually and did not expect Yu Feng’s reply. However, Yu Feng said respectfully, “Master, my younger sister is really weak. She might not even be able to live much longer after she was sent to the manor. She is still ill and might not even be able to live for the next year.”

His words sounded a little sad, but in fact, there was not a trace of sadness in them. He now had no affection for his sister at all. When Auntie Fang was driven away by the Mo Manor, he didn’t allow her to enter his house again. After that, she disappeared. Fortunately, he spread the word that he had been keeping her, and a few days later he sent word that she was dead.

Whether she lived or died from then on, it had nothing to do with him. Of course, it was also a good reason for him to show his loyalty to Consort Yu. Also, that was as it should be so that Consort Yu could know his condition.

“Now that it has turned out like this, it’s good for her!” Consort Yu said lightly.

“Yes!” Yu Feng said understandingly.
