She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

Chapter 84: The Scheming Princess 41

She smiled and asked, "I heard that the new top scholar is a young genius from Ningzhou. Could it be you, young master?"

"Yes, my surname is Fengdan and my given name is Sheng, which is the same as Sheng in Shengxiao."

Feng Sheng didn't expect that the princess would have an impression of him. Everything before him seemed like a dream.

He just wanted to say a few words to the princess. Even if the princess was angry and ordered him to be punished, he still wanted to hear the princess' voice talking to him.

Unexpectedly, the princess not only did not blame him, but also started chatting with him.

He spoke out the words that he had rehearsed countless times in his mind, and looked at Shen Weicang with his beautiful eyes. If his eyes could become material, they would definitely be wrapped around Shen Weicang like a ribbon.

"So it's Master Feng," Shen Weicang said with a smile, "Master, you are a rare talent. How could you pass the exam just because I gave you a book? You are too modest."

As soon as he said his name, Shen Weicang knew it.

Xiao Chongyu would blurt out everything to him when he was around him, wishing he could tell him everything that had happened to him since he was born.

In addition, she intended to test Xiao Chongyu's current power, so with just a simple question, he told her everything.

Since Feng Sheng is an important chess piece beside Xiao Chongyu, why can't she make him her own?

Feng Sheng's heart was already moved by Shen Weicang's gentle smile, and he had long forgotten that he was originally only interested in chatting with the princess for a few words.

He began to press further, trying to make the princess remember him.

The two of them had their own thoughts, but they got along very well.

*****************

"I hope so."

Shen Weicang closed his eyes, as if feeling a little guilty: "Feng Sheng, you are so tired every day, and I still bother you with these things."

Seeing that his beloved was in a low mood, Feng Sheng immediately explained seriously:

"Princess, no matter how busy I am, I will always have time to share your worries. The princess is your highness's sweetheart, so naturally... I am also loyal to your highness."

He didn't dare to reveal his feelings, as he was not worthy of the princess with his current status and position.

During the palace examination, the emperor had tried to probe him overtly and covertly to see if he had any engagement, perhaps intending to betroth the princess to him.

In this way, he is destined not to gain too much power, and will not provide much help to Xiao Chongyu.

Feng Sheng reluctantly stated that he had a hidden illness, which not only discouraged the emperor from marrying the princess to him, but also stopped the prominent families in the court from thinking of forming an alliance with him through marriage.

Feng Sheng didn't care whether refusing the marriage would arouse Xiao Chongyu's suspicion. He really couldn't marry someone else.

Since the princess has feelings for Xiao Chongyu, he will naturally do his best to assist Xiao Chongyu.

But what confused him was that the princess did not seem to be without feelings for King Jing.

The princess is just too kind and can't bear to hurt anyone.

"If he's in any danger, I'm afraid he won't tell me."

Shen Weicang said earnestly: "You are someone he trusts. Go with him to provide disaster relief this time. If anything happens, remember to let me know in time."

Feng Sheng immediately agreed: "Don't worry, Princess, I will definitely take good care of Your Highness."

It's like I don't understand what she's saying.

"He certainly has people around him to take care of him. I just don't want anything to be kept secret from him."

In the end, Feng Sheng agreed to let Shen Weicang know first no matter what happened. Although he was worried that the princess would be worried, he really couldn't refuse the princess' request.

*******************

Sure enough, within a month, rumors that Xiao Chongyu was not worthy of being the crown prince were rampant in the court.

As the crown prince, he was supposed to appease the people on behalf of the emperor when he went to provide disaster relief. However, wherever Xiao Chongyu went, the disaster would become more serious.

He even contracted an epidemic and is still in a coma.

Shen Weicang was ecstatic. In her dream, she had never remembered that Xiao Chongyu would suffer such a disaster. Perhaps this was God's will.

She was just about to write a letter to Xiao Chongling to throw dirty water on Xiao Chongyu, accusing him of bullying her during the time he was away from Beijing, and asked Xiao Chongling to cooperate with the Jiang family to build momentum and pull Xiao Chongyu down from the position of crown prince.

At this time Feng Sheng hurried to report to her that he was safe and told her not to worry, as everything was under control of His Highness.

"..."

Shen Weicang read the letter over and over again in disbelief.

Feng Sheng said in the letter that Xiao Chongyu had long been aware of the emperor's dissatisfaction with him, and he was just going with the flow. As for contracting the epidemic, it was just an act.

She was sure that what Feng Sheng said in the letter was true, because from the wording and sentence structure, she could tell that the letter was written to her by Xiao Chongyu in Feng Sheng's name.

It took less than an incense stick of time for Shen Weicang's heart to go from excited to cold and silent.

She doubted her choice again. Was Xiao Chongling really destined to lose to Xiao Chongyu?

Shen Weicang recalled his previous plan to get rid of Chu Mingyue.

If Xiao Chongyu is destined to be the final winner, then she might as well prepare in advance and kill Chu Mingyue to prevent him from going crazy.

But she thought again, what would be the harm in getting rid of Chu Mingyue?

She is not the only woman in the world. There are thousands of women in the world. If Xiao Chongyu is destined to change his heart, it will be Liu Mingyue or Zhou Mingyue if not Chu Mingyue.

Perhaps the only person in the world who will love her deeply from beginning to end is Xiao Chongling.

It doesn’t matter. Even if Xiao Chongyu wins temporarily and escapes the epidemic, he can’t escape other assassinations and poisonings. Xiao Chongling still has a chance.

Shen Weicang comforted himself and then wrote back to "Feng Sheng", in which he earnestly urged him to do his best to help Xiao Chongyu.

After receiving the reply letter from his sweetheart, Feng Sheng didn't even have the chance to take a look at the contents before it was taken away by Wei Yun.

"You have become more and more daring recently," Wei Yun warned him, "His Highness has become suspicious."

Feng Sheng lowered his eyes: "I have done nothing to harm him, and I have assisted him with all my heart and soul. How come he can't even tolerate the princess communicating with me?"

Wei Yun glanced at him and asked, "If it were you, would you be able to tolerate it?"

Of course not.

Wei Yun walked out of the door with the medicine. Lu Ning opened the door for him, waited for him to go in, and then closed the door again.

"You really are a man of great accomplishments. You still have the leisure to paint in this situation."

Xiao Chongyu, dressed in moon-white clothes, stood in front of the table and leaned over to draw a few strokes. His black hair was not even tied up in a crown, but only held in a bun with a green jade hairpin.

Seeing Wei Yun coming in, Xiao Chongyu put down the pen in his hand and said lightly: "It's a rare opportunity to relax like this."

Wei Yun brought the medicine over. He took the bowl in his hand and tested it to see that it was not very hot, so he simply tilted his head back and drank it all.

Wei Yun handed him a candied fruit with a smile: "This medicine is indeed very bitter, but you only need to drink it for a few more days, and then it will be over."

Xiao Chongyu pushed his hand away: "I don't need these."

"is it?"

Seeing Xiao Chongyu walk past him and walk to the chair and about to sit down, Wei Yun shook the letter in his hand:

"If I say that it was the princess who asked Feng Sheng to buy you the candied fruit in the letter, would you still want it?"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Chongyu appeared in front of Wei Yun, raised his hand to snatch the letter, and then took away the bag of candied fruits in his hand.

Wei Yun shrugged and shook his head: "Aren't these unnecessary?"

Xiao Chongyu ignored him and opened the letter with a sweet look on her face.

Seeing that Cang Cang only mentioned in the letter that he wanted Feng Sheng to assist him wholeheartedly, Xiao Chongyu's jealousy finally dissipated a little.

After reading it countless times, Xiao Chongyu carefully put the letter away and then looked at Wei Yun: "How is Xiao Chongling doing?"
