Chapter 53: Friend or Foe? (6)
"Jingyi, I'll say it again, you choose your own path, and I will never interfere with you, so you can choose the person you love and pursue. No matter who that person is, as long as you think he is the one you love, I will support you."
Feng Qinghan's words undoubtedly moved Feng Jingyi deeply. She knew that she and Feng Qinghan were not related by blood. Ever since Feng Qinghan picked her up when she was alone and starving to death, Feng Qinghan not only doted on her, but also took good care of her. He not only taught her martial arts, but also gave her a high status in the "Wind Wolf" and a freedom that no one else in the "Wind Wolf" had. Almost all the women in the "Wind Wolf" were Feng Qinghan's people, except her. Although she felt sad for a while, she also knew that Feng Qinghan was doing it for her own good. Until now, Feng Jingyi still didn't know why Feng Qinghan was so indulgent only to her...
"Jingyi will always stay with her brother, no matter whether she finds true love in the future. In Jingyi's heart, no one can compare to her brother."
"It's up to you. This is your freedom."
To be honest, even Feng Jingyi has never figured out what Feng Qinghan is thinking. Sometimes he is cold, sometimes he is enthusiastic. Which one is he, or are they both of them? Feng Jingyi believes that no matter which kind of person Feng Qinghan is, he is irreplaceable in her heart and the most important person in her life.
"If my brother wants to marry her, Jingyi will agree."
"I'll think about it."
A room in the manor.
"Feng Qinghan, who is he?"
This is the residence arranged for Zhou Yan. Zhou Yan, Zuo Yu and Shan Zhen are gathered together to discuss Feng Qinghan.
"According to the intelligence, although he visited our Zhou Kingdom as an envoy with the King of Wu's handwritten order, no one in Wu has heard of this person. The King of Wu has always been cautious and rarely has close contacts with a court official, not to mention that he is just a businessman. I'm afraid that the businessman is just a false image to cover his identity."
"It's not just that. If he was just a businessman, how could he find the 'Flame Flower' so easily? How could he find something that I couldn't find even with so many troops? First the 'Flame Flower', then all the rare treasures. If he was just an ordinary businessman, how could he be so generous? And he presented the 'Flame Flower' directly to the Prime Minister . Was it to bribe the Prime Minister? Or was it to please Yin Yin? What is his intention?"
"This is indeed puzzling, but what concerns people the most is his identity and origin. Where did he come from? Is he really from Wu? Ever since he presented the 'Flame Flower', the emperor ordered me to focus on investigating his origins. Before I could figure it out, he officially visited my Zhou Kingdom as an envoy of Wu. He has owned a huge mansion in a short time in Zhou. According to the news, the people who come in and out of his mansion are very mysterious. I have never seen them have any transactions from beginning to end. They don't look like businessmen at all. The most suspicious thing is that not long after Yin Yin woke up, the dancers in and out of their mansion in the royal city disappeared one after another. The mystery has not been solved to this day."
"… ...In short, his behavior and manners do not seem like a businessman. But if he is really a spy for the Wu State, his appearance and behavior do not seem like one. It is more appropriate to say that he is an idle rich kid rather than an official or a businessman."
Zhou Yan's conclusion was based on his investigation of Feng Qinghan so far, and Dan Zhen also felt the same way. It was indeed the case. Feng Qinghan was lazy and idle all day long, and he didn't look like someone who would follow orders from others. His words, actions, and style were all like a loner.
"Now, whoever he is, what is his goal? Is it really just a coincidence that he went to Weicheng and entertained us here?"
Zuo Yu's words forced Zhou Yan and Shan Zhen to be cautious, which was also the key.
"Friend or foe?"
Shan Zhen's words also have other meanings. After all, they are all living under someone else's roof at the moment. If they don't figure out whether they are enemies or friends, it will cause an unexpected situation. If they are friends, then we can ignore it for now. If they are enemies, they will definitely be trapped. Therefore, it is most important for them to see the true face of the other party before the other party takes any action.
The three of them fell into silence, each speculating and guessing...
After a while.
"that……"
Zuo Yu arrived first and broke the silence.
"Just tell me if you have something to say."
"Although I don't know if it is true or not, this is just my guess. It seems that Feng Qinghan is very close to the princess and is very kind to her. In fact, rather than being kind... it's better to say that he looks at the princess in the right way..."
The more Zuo Yu spoke, the lower his voice became, and finally he simply couldn't continue. This made Zhou Yan and Shan Zhen both have a bad feeling and became more concerned.
"What vision?"
"I dare not say!"
Zuo Yu knew it very well. Telling it out loud would make Zhou Yan furious, and might even make him suffer. As someone who has been with Zhou Yan for so long, he naturally knew this very well, so he had to make a layer of protection first.
"The King allows you to say it."
"this……"
"Hurry up and tell me."
"Yes, I remember when we entered the villa during the day, the look in Feng Qinghan's eyes when he saw the princess and when he was concerned about the princess were very similar to yours, Your Highness..."
After hearing Zuo Yu's words, Zhou Yan felt as if he had stopped breathing. Why didn't he think of it earlier? Maybe it was because they were too close, so he couldn't detect it! In this way, Zhou Yan was very clear in his heart that Feng Qinghan was his enemy...
You are right. Shan Zhen is more sensible than Zhou Yan. Even though Feng Qinghan also has feelings for Yin Yin, he is not moved. He firmly believes that Yin Yin is worthy of love. But this also raises a question. If Feng Qinghan really falls in love with Yin Yin, does this mean that Feng Qinghan is a friendly party?
Is he an enemy or a friend? No one knows. The only person who knows the answer is Feng Qinghan himself...
