Even if she had become useless, Big Brother Rong was hers and hers alone. But, after hearing what Feng Xiuyu had said, Si Rong hesitated—did he really want to marry a useless person?
He looked at Feng Xiang, thought about the Feng family's power, then came to a decision. He went up to Feng Xiuyu, took her hands in his, and told her gently, "I love you for who you are, not for your abilities."
"Big Brother Rong, I'm just a useless person and not worthy of you. My sister likes you so much that she reduced me to this state for your sake. Her devotion makes her worthy of you," Feng Xiuyu cried as she clasped Si Rong's hands. "Big Brother Rong, go ahead and marry my elder sister. For your sake, I'll just be your concubine; then, Father will still help you."
Listening to these words, Si Rong started thinking that this was a really good idea. He could both marry the woman he loved and also become more powerful at the same time. Feng Xiuyu looked up at Si Rong and saw that he was considering this seriously. Hate flashed in her eyes.
Feng Tianlan has to die, she thought. Big Brother Rong is mine alone, and I will
"There's one more thing I have to tell you." Su Ji suddenly spoke up after watching the lovers putting up a dramatic show. "The Third Miss's injury in her lower abdomen is exactly where her womb is, so she will no longer be able to have children."
A child was the last contribution Feng Xiuyu had left to make to the royal family!
"What?"
Everyone in the room was horrified by this new revelation.
Su Ji nodded and continued in a grave tone, "She will not be able to conceive anymore. And because an external force caused this injury, no number of pills will be able to restore it."
These two sisters were indeed extraordinary, hating each other so much that they wanted the other to die. But it seemed like Feng Tianlan was the truly evil one, destroying another woman's right to have children. This was even worse than killing Feng Xiuyu. That was Su Ji's opinion, and he began to look down on Feng Tianlan, believing in his heart that she was a cruel and heartless older sister.
He never considered that Feng Xiuyu had kept trying to kill Feng Tianlan first. And he was also mistaken in thinking that losing the ability to have children was the worst torture for a woman.
Feng Xiuyu completely froze over, her face turning deathly white. Her eyes, which had been full of hatred earlier, were now filled with despair.
I can't have children? She had plans to have children with her precious Big Brother Rong. Her child would have been the crown prince and future emperor. Now, Feng Tianlan had ruined all these beautiful plans!
"ARGGHHHHH!" Feng Xiuyu gave a loud cry, pushed Si Rong away, and fell to the floor as she tried to get out of the bed. "Feng Tianlan, I'm going to KILL YOU!"
"Yu'er!" Xu Jiayi held back her tears as she quickly ran to help Feng Xiuyu up. "Don't be too hasty to act. There's hope for you still. Don't take what Su Ji said too seriously. This can't be true."
Hearing this, Su Ji was displeased. His diagnosis had been doubted twice in the same hour. This had never happened to him before. Su Ji let out a 'humph' and left the house. He didn't want to bother with them anymore. The rest was out of his hands anyway.
Feng Xiuyu started screaming uncontrollably about killing Feng Tianlan again, and Feng Xiang and Xu Jiayi tried their best to comfort her. Eventually, Feng Xiuyu became too agitated, and the wound on her lower abdomen split open, causing her to faint.
"Third Prince, Yu'er is…" Feng Xiang looked up at Si Rong. If he weren't going to marry Feng Xiuyu anymore, then the Fengs would rather give their support to the First Prince. After all, the Third Prince was someone whose opinion was easily swayed by others, and it was risky to continue supporting him like this.
Si Rong finally came back to his senses. "Feng Clan Head…"
Just as he was about to speak, a servant came in and said, "Master, there is a letter from Second Miss at Flying Frost Pavilion."
