Chapter 254 Secret
Feng Yan was startled, then lowered his voice and asked with a puzzled look, "Why did the princess say that?"
Chu Ci's eyes were sharp, as if they could pierce people's hearts. He then stared at Feng Yan closely and said word by word: "Master Feng, a person's eyes will not lie. The evasion and hesitation in your eyes have already explained the problem."
Feng Yan was stared at by Chu Ci without giving in. He sighed helplessly and frowned: "What if I say that changing Qianxue's fate may involve you?"
"This matter is extremely risky, Princess, please think twice."
Feng Yan originally thought that Chu Ci would weigh the safety of Qianxue against his own.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ci smiled when he heard this, with a hint of ridicule in his smile, "Master Feng, does this count as revealing the secret?"
"Not really." Feng Yan didn't know what Chu Ci's purpose was in asking this, but he still chose to tell the truth and answer honestly.
Chu Ci nodded slightly upon hearing this, and said slowly: "In this case, Lord Feng should just pretend that you have never read this fortune, right?"
"In the future, don't be too calculating. Don't pry too much into the secrets of heaven, otherwise it will easily backfire and cause trouble for no reason. I'm sure Lord Feng is also clear about the interests involved."
The answer was expected, Feng Yan did not ask Chu Ci how to deal with it next. He just nodded slightly and said calmly: "I understand. I will just pretend that I didn't tell this fortune today."
Wait, what?
Did Feng Yan misunderstand something?
Chu Ci stared at Feng Yan, his eyes full of deep doubt: "Master Feng, to comprehend the secrets of heaven? You also need to pay a price, right?"
Feng Yan heard this and showed a look of disbelief on his face, his eyes full of surprise: "Me? The princess is actually worried about me?"
Chu Ci shook his head slightly and explained patiently: "I always think that knowing one's fate in advance is not necessarily a good thing. Life is full of unknowns and variables. If everything can be known in advance, then what fun and challenge is there?"
"Lord Feng Yan, instead of wasting your energy on fortune-telling and trying to peek into the unknown, it is better to grasp the present, live well, and feel every real moment with your heart."
"Destiny is unpredictable, and the only thing we can control is the present moment."
Feng Yan was finally moved after hearing this. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, but he still asked persistently: "What are you going to do about Miss Qianyan's matter?"
Chu Ci didn't know why Feng Yan was so persistent in wanting an answer, but he still explained in a good-tempered manner: "Master Feng, have you ever heard such a saying?"
"It is better to make your own decision than to seek divination from the gods."
"I will handle Qianyan's affairs according to the specific circumstances and my own judgment, and will not rely on the results of fortune-telling."
"But..." Although Feng Yan admired Chu Ci's psychological endurance and firm belief, he was still afraid of what might happen. His expression was full of worry, "What if..."
But just as he started to speak, Chu Ci interrupted him, "Master Feng, have you forgotten that my master is Divine Doctor Hua?"
"As the saying goes, medicine and poison are inseparable. I have a good command of medicine, and I am not completely ignorant of poisons. I can still handle ordinary troubles."
Feng Yan saw that Chu Ci had made up his mind and knew that it was useless to say more, so he stopped talking.
I just secretly decided to take better care of Qianyan in the future and try my best to prevent her from getting hurt.
"Master Yunshang, if that's the case, let's get off. The space in this carriage is small, and the air doesn't circulate very well. It's so stuffy that it really makes people feel uncomfortable."
Feng Yan said this, and moved quickly. Not only did he jump off the carriage swiftly, he also enthusiastically reached out his hand to pull Taoist Yunshang up, and said anxiously: "Master Yunshang, please go too, let's not disturb the young couple!"
Upon hearing this, Taoist Master Yun Shang rolled his eyes fiercely and complained in his heart: "Who on earth caused this?"
"I am so unlucky. I was dragged into this for no reason."
He muttered, "My old Taoist, why is my life so hard?"
Chu Ci knew that Taoist Yunshang was trying to curry favor with him in various ways, and he couldn't help but smile.
Then he turned around and took out a bottle of top-quality ginseng wine from a wooden box (space), shook it gently in front of Taoist Yunshang, and said with a sweet smile: "Taoist Yunshang, it won't be bitter now, right?"
"It's not bitter, not at all." Taoist Yunshang's eyes lit up and he stared at the bottle of wine, as if it was the most precious treasure in the world.
But then he felt it was a pity and couldn't help but mutter to himself: "It's such a waste. Such a good thing is just soaked in wine."
Thinking of this, Taoist Master Yunshang kindly reminded him, "Don't let your master know. Otherwise, with your master's temper, he will definitely break your legs."
Chu Ci was speechless upon hearing this. He could not help but roll his eyes and said unhappily, "Don't worry, Taoist priest. My master has much more good stuff than what you have. And the quality is definitely higher. Whether it is the age or the efficacy, it is far better than your bottle."
Taoist Master Yun Shang immediately shut up and muttered to himself: "Jealousy, jealousy changes a person beyond all recognition."
Even Feng Yan, who had already jumped off the carriage, was attracted to the point of being unable to walk. He came over with a flattering look on his face, staring eagerly at the ginseng wine in Taoist Yun Shang's hand, and said pitifully: "Princess, I am considered one of you, right? Can I have some too?"
Chu Ci was about to agree, but Fan Jingrui said first: "One condition. Lord Feng, can you give my wife a portion of the good stuff in your hand?"
Feng Yan looked at Chu Ci, then turned to look at Taoist Yun Shang who was leisurely beside him. He seemed to have made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said, "I agree. Ginseng wine——"
Without saying a word, Chu Ci took out a bottle of identical ginseng wine from his luggage (space) and handed it over without hesitation.
Feng Yan took the ginseng wine, a satisfied smile on his face, and held the wine tightly in his arms, as if he had obtained a unique treasure in the world. He looked so happy.
On the contrary, the second prince Li Qin looked at the news coming from various places, and his face instantly became as gloomy as the sky before a storm, so dark that it made people feel extremely depressed.
After a long time, Li Qin could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. With a "bang", he threw the paperweight next to him to the ground. The paperweight instantly broke into pieces, and the debris flew everywhere.
"Is Princess Yixin a devil?" Li Qin roared in anger.
"Why is it that as long as she is here, my carefully planned plan will never succeed." He clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, and his voice was full of anger and unwillingness.
"Why is God so unfair, always letting my hard work go to waste!" Li Qin roared, his eyes red, like an angry lion.
