“Father.” Feng Ruqing walked forward slowly and gave the pot of wine in her hands to a eunuch who was standing at the side. Then, she turned and looked at Feng Tianyu. “I bought this wine some time ago. I brought it for you to try.”
Feng Tianyu smiled as he was pleased. “My daughter has finally grown up. I’m grateful. I do not like to drink wine. You can give this to your grandfather. He likes to drink wine.”
The relationship between Qing’er and the General Manor was not intimate. Their relationship might be improved with this pot of good wine.
Yan’er would be glad now that she was in heaven.
“No need.” Feng Ruqing smiled and shook her head. “I’ve given a pot of wine to my grandfather. This is for you. I’ve been to many places just to find a pot of good wine for you. Father, my effort would be wasted if you do not try it.”
Feng Tianyu was helpless, but he also felt ecstatic deep down in his heart.
Qing’er had indeed changed so much after that day. It must be because of Yan’er.
“Okay. I’ll try your wine after I have finished reading all the memorials.”
“Good.” Feng Ruqing smiled gently. “Moreover, I’m lucky enough that I could buy a Divine-Spirit Fruit. I’ll give that to you too. This Divine-Spirit Fruit could help relieve your tiredness since you’re always busy dealing with government affairs.”
Feng Tianyu was stunned. Feng Ruqing put the Divine-Spirit Fruit in front of Feng Tianyu. He looked at the Divine-Spirit Fruit. There were tears in his eyes.
“Qing’er, you’re really more thoughtful now.”
His care and love for her all these years were not wasted.
“By the way…” Feng Tianyu suddenly thought of something. He then asked, “Did you retrieve the Iron-Blooded Token?”
Feng Ruqing smiled broadly. “I only let her look at the Iron-Blooded Token, but it has taken so many years. Now, it’s time that I took it back.”
“That’s good.”
Feng Tianyu could finally sigh in relief after all these years.
That Iron-Blooded Token was left behind by Yan’er, and it was also a thing which Feng Tianyu wanted to hold dear to himself for the rest of his life. However, Feng Ruqing had given it to Noble Consort Rong, and even he could not stop her.
Now he was relieved that the thing had been returned to its rightful owner and Feng Ruqing had indeed grown up.
“But, Qing’er, you need to eat more. You’ve clearly slimmed down a lot in only a month.” Feng Tianyu sighed. “Even if you want to slim down, you should not skip any meals. You can just eat less oily food. Do you understand?”
He was most worried that Feng Ruqing would skip meals just to slim down. If anything happened to her, he would not be able to meet the late Empress Nalan when he passed away one day.
“Father, I understand.”
Feng Ruqing was indeed slimmer than before. But, her face was still chubby. However, there was a glow on her face when she smiled now. Her cheekbones were also sharper and more noticeable now.
“I’ll not bother you further today. I’ll come and meet you again next time.”
Just then, Feng Ruqing looked at Feng Tianyu. She felt that there was something wrong with Feng Tianyu. But, she could not seem to put a finger on it. She saw that Feng Tianyu did not say anything, so she turned and walked out of the imperial study room.
Feng Tianyu’s face turned so pale that he vomited a mouthful of blood on the memorial when the door of the imperial study room closed . 1
His face was still serious and handsome. But, his actions made the palace maids around him nervous. All of them came forward and surrounded him.
