08 Consort Tao’s Real Face

Because of Feng Xuan’s departure, only Feng Yi Xuan and the other three people remained in the palace hall, as well as Consort Tao who was sprawled on the ground.

The four each took a seat. Lan You Nian hugged Feng Yi Xuan’s neck, asking in a spoiled tone, “Xuan, have you vented your anger?” Previously, Lan You Nian had a favorable opinion of Feng Xuan, this elder, but thinking of Feng Yi Xuan’s sufferings, Lan You Nian took delight in Feng Xuan’s pain.

“Nian Nian did this for me?” Feng Yi Xuan’s eyes glowed as he gazed at Lan You Nian. He knew of Nian Nian’s love in watching dramas. Hence, he didn’t think too much when Nian Nian expressed the desire to enter the palace, even if the object of the drama she wanted to watch as his Imperial Father. For Feng Yi Xuan, this was all meaningless, as long as it makes Nian Nian happy. Yet, Feng Yi Xuan didn’t expect to do all this for him. Feng Yi Xuan felt his heart filled with feelings of joy, hating he couldn’t swallow the girl in his arms up to express his feelings.

“En!” Lan You Nian nodded her small head and smiled as she said, “Maybe you don’t care anymore but Nian Nian will help you take everything back!” Lan You Nian and Feng Yi Xuan were similarly protective of their own people. Hence, towards Feng Xuan, Lan You Nian long had the desire to teach him a lesson. In Lan You Nian’s heart, if you gave Feng Yi Xuan a hard time, then you don’t even need to think about living!

“With Nian Nian venting for me, I am very happy!” Feng Yi Xuan just couldn’t help himself as he pecked Lan You Nian’s lips, a smile blooming on his face. The doting smile he wore made others who saw it feel as if they were floating on clouds, feeling his entire body being shrouded by a warm light, an indecipherable warmth and comfort.

Feng Xia Qi and Yue Bai Lian shared a smile. As the two of them held hands, they felt fulfilled. Wasn’t it their hope that the two of them could love each other? As for them, weren’t they quite happy as well?

Lan You Nian got down from Feng Yi Xuan’s lap and came over to Consort Tao. Lan You Nian’s pure white scallion fingers thoroughly outlined Consort Tao’s stunning face, the delicate gesture was like treating a cherished person or thing, but Consort Tao felt as if her entire body was immersed in ice, even her breathing became short.

Seeing Consort Tao’s fearful expression, the smile on Lan You Nian’s lips widened, making her face turn into a cold beauty, emitting a deadly devilish charm. Every smile was capable of capturing one’s heart and freezing to the extreme.

Leaning into Consort Tao’s ear, Lan You Nian’s breath puffed on Consort Tao’s cheek but the words she spoke made Consort Tao seem like she lost her soul.

“My beloved sister Lan Ya, it’s been so long!” Lan You Nian’s voice wasn’t loud but it was enough for the others to hear. From the start, Lan You Nian felt this Consort Tao gave her a familiar feelings. The hatred Consort Tao leeked out made Lan You Nian especially vigilant. Lan You Nian has been investigating and pondering on it but didn’t come up with anything, until that day she saw Consort Tao and Old Madame’s chatting, did she suddenly realize. Because this Consort Tao’s every behavior and gesture, despite disguising herself very well, it could not erase Lan Ya’s mannerisms.

When Lan You Nian returned to Feng Yi Xuan’s side, Feng Yi Xuan took out a handkerchief in displeasure as he wiped Lan You Nian’s fingers and sternly scolded Lan You Nian, “You are forbidden from touching other people!”

Because she was in a good mood, it was a rare moment that Lan You Nian leaned into Feng Yi Xuan’s ear, using a voice that only the two of them could hear, “Don’t touch other other, how about touch you?”

Lan You Nian’s words were too ambiguous, even evilly sticking her tongue out to lick Feng Yi Xuan’s white ears.

Boom! Feng Yi Xuan felt his entire body burning up. He had absolutely no resistibility to Lan You Nian. Now the girl said such words that made one set loose their imagination, and licked him, Feng Yi Xuan felt an instant reaction. He even recalled the image of Nian Nian using her little hands to help him solve it and the intense feelings

Lan You Nian sat on Feng Yi Xuan’s thighs; hence, she could feel Feng Yi Xuan’s change. She giggled mentally but when she looked up to see Feng Yi Xuan’s eyes filling with desire, Lan You Nian felt perhaps she may have bitten off more than she could chew.

“How do you know? How do you know?” Consort Tao, no, right now she can be called Lan Ya, Lan Ya shouted at Lan You Nian, still unwilling to admit defeat. She really couldn’t figure out, she already changed her looks and changed her identity, how can this Lan You Nian still recognize her. Why did she lose again?!

Lan Ya’s shout made Feng Yi Xuan return to his senses. Reaching out a hand to perch Lan You Nian stably on his lap, especially concealing his body’s physical reaction. But to have the woman of his heart by his side, Feng Yi Xuan only felt his thoughts run even wilder.

“Xuan, trust me, if you don’t keep your hands to yourself, I will cripple you!” Lan You Nian grit her teeth as she pinched Feng Yi Xuan’s arm. She felt the longer she knows Feng Yi Xuan, this more amorous this man becomes. To get turned on while in the public eye, yet this was before he has gotten to eat her, if the two of them married, she couldn’t imagine the consequences.

Feng Yi Xuan grievously looked at Lan You Nian and muttered in dissatisfaction, “Nian Nian, can you bear to destroy your future happiness? Besides, it’s not my fault!”

Lan You Nian glared at Feng Yi Xuan dangerously, and grit her teeth as she said, “Are you saying it’s my fault then?”

Feng Yi Xuan nodded, as he said pitifully, “It becomes excited whenever it touches you. And you had just tempted me then, so it became even more excited!”

Lan You Nian found Feng Yi Xuan’s nonsensical words humorous. When has this man learned to retort back with her? But it couldn’t be denied, no matter what Feng Yi Xuan was like, she liked all of him. She felt only such a Feng Yi Xuan was the true him, a unique him.

The two’s disregard angered Lan Ya who climbed up frm the ground to scratch at Lan You Nian. Before she could get near Lan You Nian, she was thrown off by a blast of Feng Yi Xuan’s internal force. At this, Lan You Nian returned her gaze to Lan Ya, “Lan Ya, why are you still so ignorant? If I was you, I’d clamp my tail and run far far away. Why are you so stupid to come back to provoke me?”

Lan Ya saw herself so haggard and looked at Lan You Nian who was being gingerly protected within the other person’s arms, hating she couldn’t go up to eat her flesh and drink her blood.

“Haha, run? No, no, I want to come back to take revenge on you. I want to come back to destroy you!” Lan Ya looked at Lan You Nian, the hatred in her eyes was like an evil spirit from hell, “Do you know how much hatred I feel? From the moment I was born, even if father didn’t pay attention to you, but at least he had you in his heart. But what about me? Father has never spared me a look! And then I thought you died, why didn’t you die! Why must you come back alive? Once you came back, the entire Lan manor changed. My little sister, older brother, mother were all killed by you. Do you know how much I hate?”

“I don’t!” Lan You Nian very leisurely sat on Feng Yi Xuan’s lap but Lan You Nian’s words nearly choked Lan Ya to death.

“Hahaha!” Lan Ya laughed like a ghost, “Of course you don’t know. Look at you, so many people love you, pamper you, even Prince Ming who doesn’t like women loves you. But what about me? I don’t have anything, so I only wanted to find someone to rely on for myself. But I didn’t expect even Crown Prince of Hua has feelings of love for you. I only wanted to become his woman. Am I wrong? I am not, but do you know how he treated me?”

Lan You Nian was very cooperative as she shook her head. She really didn’t know. She only knew once Lan Ya entered Hua Xiu Yi’s palace, she disappeared, so she paid no more attention to her. It looked like something happened she wasn’t aware of. The adorable look of Lan You Nian obediently nodding as she listened to a story, not only delighted Feng Yi Xuan, even Feng Xia Qi and Yue Bai Lian hated they couldn’t go over to pat Lan You Nian’s head.

Lan Ya seemed to be remembering something frightening as her entire body curled up in a corner, her eyes filled with hatred and horror, “He turned a blind eye to me, actually threw me at those guards to shame me. So many people, do you know how much that hurts? My innocence, my everything was gone, everything was gone! Hahaha, everything’s gone!”

Lan You Nian nodded her head understandingly. So it turns out Hua Xiu Yi that abnormality threw her to his guards to play with. Lan You Nian didn’t feel as if Hua Xiu Yi did anything wrong. They weren’t good people, true, but if you didn’t go provoke them bad people, they usually won’t do anything to you. One could only blame you didn’t have the ability yet still fantasized about provoking them.

Meanwhile, as Lan You Nian pondered to herself, she didn’t know her little look was too cute. If there was a little tail, it definitely can instant kill anyone, just like Feng Yi Xuan who felt his heart jumping rapidly, simply to say he completely defeated by the cuteness of Lan You Nian’s unconscious expressions.

“Why has your face become like this?” Lan You asked. When she stroked Lan Ya’s face, she determined from touch that Lan Ya didn’t show any signs of disguising her face. Then it could only be that someone tampered with Lan Ya’s face, even having an ulterior motive to use a face that was similar to the previous Empress to Lan Ya. One can imagine how vicious his motives were. Lan You Nian always thought the only ones who had the ability to tamper with people’s faces were her master Gui Yi Zi and her. Even elder brother’s medical skills haven’t reached that level.

“Because I wanted to become more beautiful. I wanted to come back to take revenge on you!” Though Lan Ya had no more roads left to her, she still didn’t admit the truth, “But I didn’t expect, even if I changed my looks, and became a consort, I still can’t beat you!”

Lan You Nian was about to ask something else when Lan Ya spit out black blood from her mouth. Lan You Nian was going to go over to check on it but was stopped by Feng Yi Xuan. He shook his head, “She doesn’t have long to live!” Though Feng Yi Xuan didn’t understand medicine, from Lan Ya’s vital signs, he knew she didn’t have any left. She couldn’t survive this.

After Lan Ya vomited the black blood, that beautiful face started to fester as that face started to flake off. Feng Yi Xuan pulled Lan You Nian into his arms, not allowing her to see such a horrifying face. Feng Xia Qi, too, covered up Yue Bai Lian’s eyes.

“What’s this?” Feng Xia Qi forced back the urge to puke. In an instant, Lan Ya’s face’s starting to flake off and became mottled with holes, as if she was being gnawed on by something.

“I’m fine!” Lan You Nian pat Feng Yi Xuan’s arm. Coming out of Feng Yi Xuan’s arms, she shot a look at Lan Ya who has become a pile of rotten meat and looked away, really feeling disgusted. Yue Bai Lian pulled down Feng Xia Qi’s fingers, but immediately threw up when she got a look.

“If someone wanted to change their face, they must use a certain poison insect and put it into their face, then let that poison insect gnaw on the bones to change the face, then use the best medical skills and herbs to shape a new face, but the the person with the new face only has two months to live. What surprises me is that there’s someone in this world who can change one’s face. I only thought only master knew!” Lan You Nian considered it as her brows furrowed. Who was it behind it all? Why did they send Lan Ya into Feng empire’s imperial palace? These were all unsolved puzzles.

“Prince, princess consort!” An Yi entered the palace and in a tone of guilt, reported, “This subordinate is useless. I wasn’t able to chase down that eunuch!”

From the very beginning, Feng Yi Xuan had An Yi to capture that eunuch. After all, from the looks of it, Lan Ya was merely being used and that fake eunuch seemed to be worth a lot more. It was a surprise that An Yi wasn’t able to catch him with his martial arts.

Feng Yi Xuan waved his hand to let An Yi withdraw. Feng Yi Xuan was aware of An Yi’s abilities, so this time it was them who underestimated the enemy!

“It looks like the one behind this is someone from another empire, using Lan Ya to create disorder in our Feng empire. It is a good plan!” Feng Xia Qi muttered, enraged. He still cared very much about Feng empire. He will become a good Emperor.

“We can only wait now…” Feng Yi Xuan carried Lan You Nian, leaving the palace hall. The one behind the scenes hid themselves very well. They have already alerted the enemy. Next, the one behind it will hide themselves even deeper, so they ca only wait.
