Feng Yu Jiu Tian - Volume 9 - Chapter 2

CHAPTER 2

After waiting for some time regarding Rong Hu’s condition, the teary maids came out to tell them that Rong Hu’s life is not in danger, but he will need about a month to fully recover.

Lie Er wanted to visit his brother, but the maids told him that because of his nasty attitude towards Lady Yao Ye earlier, Lie Er is the only one that can’t visit him. Hearing that, Lie Er was a bit sad, but didn’t dare to go against the words of the person saving his brother’s life.

They received another letter with news about Miao Guang (the earlier letter Rong Tian received was also about Miao Guang). According to the news, Miao Guang returned to Bo Jian’s capital after the fail assassination attempt on her. This is fairly reasonable, but what Rong Tian couldn’t understand was why she would use the fail assassination attempt as an excuse to tell Bo Jian King that she no longer feels safe in Bo Jian and his sincerity towards her seems to be lacking (since Bo Ling tried to kill her). Because of that, Miao Guang decided to call off the marriage arrangement between her and Bo Qin.

They were wondering why Miao Guang would let go of the opportunity to form an allegiance and build a supporting foundation when she is pressured by Long Tian and her brother is in a coma. They started speculating that perhaps she knew the Lady Yao Ye poisoned Long Tian and no longer felt threatened by him. However, after thinking about this, it still did not make sense. Finally, Feng Ming made a guess that perhaps Ruo Yan has woken up and because of that, Miao Guang doesn’t need Bo Jian’s support anymore. Because if Ruo Yan has woken up, Rong Tian concluded:

RT: This answer has cleared up the other questions I had. Miao Guang went to Bo Jian’s capital to propose a marriage allegiance with Bo Jian, but later found out that Ruo Yan has woken up. If her brother is awake, then Long Tian does not pose as a large threat in their eyes and Ruo Yan would not be willing to let his only sister marry out that easily. But why would she not immediately call off the marriage and instead wanted to go to Han Gui? ... (answers the question himself) She knew that Bo Ling and 3rd Princess had escaped; therefore, purposely let the news of her and Qing Ding’s meeting in Han Gui slip, using that as a bait to lure them out.

FM: This plot of Miao Guang is impressive. One, she uses Bo Ling and 3rd Princess to eliminate Qing Ding, the Great King of Tong Kingdom. Two, she can lure Bo Ling and 3rd Princess out of their hiding spot and eliminate them. Third, it is a good excuse to give Bo Jian King a reason to call off the marriage. A future daughter-in-law that was almost killed in his territory, of course Bo Jian King will not stubbornly keep Miao Guang there. In fact, he might have sent her off with a bunch of treasures/gifts. This scheme is great! One rock that hits three birds.

Rong Tian later received another sealed enveloped, but this time the letter is from Xi Lei, Tong Er. The letter is somewhat wet in areas so only certain parts were readable.

The letter...it was addressed to Miao Guang.

"I believe that Princess is someone who is reliable and understands reasoning. These recent days, Xi Lei had many changes, I sent this letter with hope of...

The Empress Dowager is still not dead, when the palace was lit on fire, she took the opportunity to escape and reunite with Rong Tian. It seems that she had secretly sneaked into the capital (Xi Qin) with intentions of disruption. This person is the mother of Rong Tian, if we capture her alive, and cleverly took advantage then....”
