Prepare Money for Husband’s Long Expedition

Wang Chuan had speculated that Feng Yu Heng would be going to the Sheng Palace, and this completely frightened Huang Quan. Even Ban Zou appeared from his unknown hiding place. The first thing that he said was: “You can’t go.”

Feng Yu Heng facepalmed: “Why?”

“Too dangerous.”

“I don’t think it’s dangerous.” She began to reason with Ban Zou, “There is a difference in ability between people. What you think of as dangerous is easy to me.”

Ban Zou’s forehead prickled from being attacked; however, he gritted his teeth and shook his head, saying: “Even still, you can’t.” After saying this, he saw Feng Yu Heng’s resolute expression and felt that he was most likely unable to stop her, thus he added: “Unless you bring me along.”

Wang Chuan also added in: “I will also go.”

Huang Quan really wanted to say that she would also go, but she was proficient in fighting. Her qinggong and stealth abilities were not where her strengths lay. If she went, she would be dragging them down, thus she held back the words that she wanted to say and felt uncomfortable from doing so.

Feng Yu Heng also felt her head hurt. She analyzed the situation with the two: “I am going to investigate in secret. I am not going to sightsee. It’s impossible for there to be lanterns in the Sheng Palace. What are you all coming along for? Do you not understand that there will be a bigger target with more people?”

Wang Chuan was very tangled. She understood the logic. When she had been in the Yu Palace, she had done this sort of investigation work because her qinggong abilities were outstanding. Of course, she understood the logic that having more people would make for a bigger target. Thus she was tangled for a long time before finally saying: “It’s fine if this servant does not go, but Young Miss must bring along Ban Zou.”

“Wang Chuan.” Feng Yu Heng reminded her, “Back in the imperial carriage, His Highness the ninth prince reminded me to bring along Ban Zou, but what was his attitude later on? Did he still say that I need to bring him?”

Wang Chuan stomped her foot: “That’s because Young Miss lied to His Highness and said that you were going to Prime Minister Lu’s manor! Of course, going to the Lu manor is fine, but in truth, you’re going to the Sheng Palace? Young miss, you must bring along Ban Zou. If you don’t bring him along, this servant will immediately go to tell His Highness the ninth prince that you are preparing to enter the Sheng Palace on your own.”

There was nothing that Feng Yu Heng could do. Her maid servants were getting more and more ideas! They even dared to play the role of a tattletale. If this continued, would their roles not end up reversed? But she also knew that Wang Chuan and the others were doing this for her own good. After all, the Sheng Palace could not be compared to other places. If some sort of unexpected accident was to occur, Xuan Tian Ming would definitely go crazy. She thought about it then helplessly said: “Forget it, Ban Zou, you can come along. We will set out around midnight tonight. We can get some sleep for now.”

Fearing that Feng Yu Heng would sneak off on her own, Ban Zou did not climb into the rafters, nor did he climb onto a tree. He just sat in the outer part of her bedchamber, which angered Feng Yu Heng into covering her head with her blanket. She cursed at him thousands of times in her heart but still felt unhappy, thus she poked her head back out and loudly said: “Ban Zou, I’m telling you that you had best not think of using any stupid tricks like using any drugs to knock me unconscious. I, your master, am a divine doctor. That lowly drug of yours has no effect on me! It has no use at all!” After saying this, she covered her head and began cursing once more.
