That group of palace maids was comprised of four people. Each of them held a basket in their hands. They walked quickly and walked along the side of the main road. With their heads lowered, it was clear that they did not want to be noticed by others.
Unfortunately, despite their care, they were still seen by Feng Yu Heng.
The palace maid that was sending her out noticed Feng Yu Heng looking over, thus she also took a look. She then took the initiative to explain: "Those are the servants that take care of concubine An. Thinking about it, it must be his Highness Prince Xiang sending something to concubine An.
"Hm?" Feng Yu Heng was puzzled, "If I have not made a mistake, concubine An should be the fifth prince's birth mother. Why is Prince Xiang sending her things?"
The palace maid said: "County princess may not know, but ever since that matter happened with his Highness the fifth prince, his Majesty has never gone to see concubine An. Because of this, concubine An became a little deranged, as she began to hate his Highness the fifth prince. Normally, his Highness the fifth prince would send things into the palace, but as long as she heard that they came from him, she would immediately begin to break them. Instead, it has been his Highness the third prince that has been taking care of concubine An over these years. He will occasionally send things like food and clothes to her."
"Oh." Feng Yu Heng nodded. She knew about concubine An being a little crazy; however, she did not think that the third prince would do such an act. Xuan Tian Ye was a person that definitely would not do it out of the goodwill in his heart. Where there was no profit, he would not act. What was he taking care of concubine An for?
She turned her gaze over in the direction that the group of palace maids was walking toward. She could not mistake it. In that group of palace maids, there was one person that she recognized. The person that had taught Fen Dai the snow dance, Hong Yun, was among them.
"Concubine An's personal palace maids are quite beautiful." She pretended to say this inadvertently. When she looked once more, the group of palace maids had already walked off.
The palace maid at her side told her: "That's because concubine An, for the sake of regaining his Majesty's favor, has raised a number of beautiful women in her palace. Not only this, she has them learn that snow dance. Unfortunately, ever since that incident, his Majesty has never gone to the palace again."
"Did his Majesty not send an imperial physician to examine concubine An's lunacy?" She asked the palace maid, "How many years has it been, yet there still does not seem to be any improvement?"
The palace maid said: "Imperial physicians were naturally invited, but his Majesty is not interested in this matter, so how could the imperial physicians treat it seriously. They are merely going through the motions."
"So it's like that." Feng Yu Heng pondered for a while until they reached the palace's gates when she finally said: "Then when I come at a later date, I will go over and take a look at her!"
The palace maid smiled and said: "County princess really is compassionate."
Whether or not she was a Bodhisattva, Feng Yu Heng did not know. She just felt a desire to go and check on something that she had been skeptical of the entire time. It seemed that things were about to develop in a way for the truth to be revealed.
Xuan Tian Ming's carriage was waiting in front of the palace's gates, and Feng Yu Heng stepped toward it. Before she could climb in, she heard a voice from behind: "County princess, please wait!"
She was startled and turned around. There, she saw a group of palace servants carrying a number of large boxes out of the palace. At the lead was a granny that took care of the Empress, Chun Lan. Upon seeing that Feng Yu Heng had stopped, she quickly chased over and said with a smile: "Greetings county princess! This old servant has an order from her Highness the Empress to send a dowry to the Feng manor."
