Chapter 107 Gentle and pleasant
Chapter 107 Gentle and pleasant
After Feng Yaoyu left Prince Jin's Mansion, she immediately took a carriage to Prince Mo's Mansion.
She had met Bai Mohan and knew that he had a strange temper and was not easy to get along with, but if Bai Jinzhi failed, Bai Mohan would be the only choice.
Arriving at the gate of Prince Mo's Mansion, Feng Yaoyu, having learned from the experience of Prince Jin's Mansion, stepped forward with a smile and said, "Feng Yaoyu of Shang State wishes to see His Highness Mo Han."
The guard saluted quickly and said, "Yes, I'll pass the message right away." Then he hurried into Prince Mo's mansion.
Bai Mohan was currently feeding the fish by the lotus pond in the palace courtyard. Upon hearing the guard's report, he paused for a moment, then smiled, "Oh? Please invite His Highness Feng in."
After saying that, he continued to sprinkle fish feed into the fish pond.
The guard came to the gate of the mansion and saluted Feng Yaoyu, "Your Highness, please."
Then the maid stepped forward and led Feng Yaoyu into the palace.
Feng Yaoyu's face lit up with joy, and she followed him into Prince Mo's mansion with her attendants.
Unlike the elegant Palace of Prince Jin, the Palace of Prince Mo is very clean and tidy, with not a single fallen leaf on the road.
The decoration is very luxurious, with gold ornaments everywhere. Bai Mohan likes gold very much, and the Queen keeps giving him gold, which shows how much the Queen of Yan Kingdom values and loves him.
The maid led her all the way to the courtyard of the palace and near the lotus pond. At this time, Bai Mohan was wearing a thin red outer robe with dark cranes embroidered on it, and a white inner shirt with cloud patterns. His hair was casually tied with a golden hairpin. He was sitting sideways in the pavilion, looking at the fish in the pond with a smile on his face.
Feng Yaoyu was stunned for a moment, it was really too beautiful. If she had never seen Bai Mohan in person, just looking at this scene, she would have thought he was a gentle man. These two brothers are really more troublesome than each other!
Feng Yaoyu walked into the pavilion, "Your Highness Bai is really interested."
At this moment, Bai Mohan turned his head and looked straight at Feng Yaoyu with a smile on his face. Feng Yaoyu saw him looking at her like this and smiled gently, "Your Highness Bai, I was strolling on the street today and saw this thing. I thought it was very good, so I thought of bringing it to Your Highness to try. I hope Your Highness likes it."
Then the servant beside him placed an exquisite wooden box on the table. He heard that the prince of Yan State was very favored and had seen all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry. He chose to give them these common people's things, perhaps to leave an impression and good impression on them.
Bai Mohan's eyes moved towards the box. He stretched out his slender hand and opened the wooden box. After taking a look, his eyes were filled with tenderness. "Thank you, Your Highness Feng. I like it very much."
Feng Yaoyu felt relieved. She had thought that Bai Mohan would make things difficult for her when she came to Prince Mo's Mansion, but she didn't expect that he would be so gentle and lovely when interacting with her in private.
Feng Yaoyu then took action and placed her hand on Bai Mohan's hand, saying with deep affection, "As long as Your Highness likes it, I'm glad. If there are any rare things among the people in the future, I will find them for you. I just want to make Your Highness smile."
Bai Mohan glanced at her hand resting on his, raised his eyes and said, "The last time I saw Princess Feng dance, I still remember it to this day. I really enjoy watching dance. Your Highness, would you please do me the honor of seeing the dancers in my palace?"
Feng Yaoyu nodded with a doting look on her face, "Of course it's good!"
After saying this, Bai Mohan looked at the attendants outside the pavilion and said, "Bring the dancer from my palace here."
After a while, a dancer wearing a belly-exposed costume from the Western Regions was brought up. The dancer was wearing a red dress and a veil on her mouth.
The dancer was very scared when she was brought in. There were many whip marks on her arms. She knelt outside the pavilion, not daring to look up, and trembling all over.
Bai Mohan looked at the dancer, his eyes still full of tenderness, "The king has an honored guest today, please dance for him."
The dancer kneeling outside the pavilion trembled all over, nodded quickly and vigorously, then stood up. When she was about to dance, she secretly raised her eyes to look at Feng Yaoyu sitting in the pavilion. Her eyes suddenly froze and she stood there in a daze.
Bai Mohan looked at the dancer with interest, then said, "Why haven't you started yet?"
At this time, the dancer withdrew her gaze, nodded fearfully, and slowly began to dance, but her eyes kept looking at Feng Yaoyu from time to time.
Feng Yaoyu looked down on this woman very much. A woman had become a plaything of a noble.
This woman kept looking directly at me. How audacious! If Bai Mohan hadn't been here, I would have executed her to protect my reputation!
At this moment, the dancer finished her dance and knelt on the ground again.
Bai Mohan turned around and looked at Feng Yaoyu, and asked expectantly, "Your Highness, what do you think?"
Feng Yaoyu saw Bai Mohan was so expectant, so she could only nod, "Not bad."
Bai Mohan turned and looked at the kneeling dancer, "His Highness said you danced quite well, I want to reward you!"
But the dancer on the ground did not thank him or say anything. For a moment, the scene was very quiet...
Feng Yaoyu lost her patience and looked at the dancer kneeling on the ground with disdain, "His Highness Bai is talking to you, why are you silent and why don't you thank him?"
Bai Mohan glanced at Feng Yaoyu and said casually, "Don't be angry, Your Highness. She can't thank you for your kindness."
Feng Yaoyu looked puzzled, "Why?"
Bai Mohan looked at the dancer and said, "Take off your veil!"
The dancer hesitated to move and did not want to take off her veil.
Bai Mohan spoke again coldly, "Are you really so disobedient?"
The dancer shuddered after hearing this, stretched out her hand, and slowly took off her veil...
Feng Yaoyu was shocked when she saw it. Her mouth had been sewn together with needle and thread. It seemed that it had been mended so many times that it was a little rotten.
After seeing the dancer's face clearly, Feng Yaoyu was so scared that she almost fell to the ground. She suddenly held on to the table with her hands and took her hand back from Bai Mohan's hand.
This person is actually...Feng Yaoxue!
