Xiao Li was weeping as she watch Feng Wu who sleep on the bed. Yan Cheung could not stand anymore after the doctor left.
" Xiao Li, what is wrong with Feng Feng? How did she get poison?"
Xiao Li doesn't want to talk since her young miss did not allow to tell other people to know her sickness but she as a maidservant, feels heartache for Feng Wu so she decides to tell them to see if they could help her find the antidote.
" My Young Miss got poison when she is six years old. When she was young, one of her father's concubines want to poison her to destroy her voice. So she took aconite poison which to cover up that she did take the poison. After that, the effect from the poison always acts up once in a while. We did try to find antidotes but never found the right one."
Yan Chen's face is so dark and he gives out a dangerous aura and Yan Cheung who stand close could feel his older brother's change.
" Why would someone want to kill her when she is only six years old?" Yan Cheung tries to ignore his older brother freezing aura.
" I don't know and my Young Miss never told me anything else other than being careful of Concubine Li." Xiao Li shakes her head and no longer further says anymore.
" Xiao Li, I think there are people who want to kill your young miss. So you guy better be careful."
Yan Chen went out without talking and Yan Cheung follow after talking to Xiao Li. Yan Chen doesn't know what he is thinking but he knows one thing for sure is he want to protect Feng Wu no matter what.
" Len!" Yan Chen call.
"Yes! Master!" Len comes out of nowhere and down on one kneel for Yan Chen's order.
" Ask Ye to find antidotes for Aconite poison. I need as soon as possible." Yan Chen looks at the far distance, doesn't know what he thinking.
" Yes! Master!" Len is gone in a blink of an eye.
" Brother, you sure there are antidotes for Aconite poison? I was worried that Feng Feng will not be able to hold on longer." Yan Cheung thought in a frown face.
" Don't worry. I believed she can hold on. I can see she is someone strong, not the weak kinds."
After that, no one talks again as both are thinking in their own mind.

In Feng's house, Feng Wu was frowned in her sleep and break out in cold sweats. She dreams back to her previous life as she got tortured and harmed. Then she died from the fire burning the courtyard down, she feel pain from the fire burning her flesh.
" Ahaaa...!!!" Feng Wu scream as she woke up.
She look around and saw that it was her house where she live in the Clear Water Village, not the Lotus courtyard in Feng Mansion. She could see that outside is already dark and looked down on her clothes as it already got changed.
" Young Miss?! Are you okay?!" Xiao Li run inside after hearing Feng Wu scream.
" I'm fine. I want to drink." Feng Wu feels her throat is dry.
"Wait, let me pour some warm tea for you."
Xiao Li went to the table and pour some tea on the cups and bring over to Feng Wu's mouth. Feng Wu feels so thirsty and drinks the whole cup of tea. Her stomach also growled as she felt hungry.
" Let me go get food for you." Xiao Li knows that Feng Wu has slept for the whole day so she would be hungry now.
" Hm." Feng Wu watches Xiao Li leave in a hurry and smiles.
She has no one to depend on now and only Xiao Li is willing to stay with her and care so she will not let Xiao Li die like in her previous life.

After they finish eating. Feng Wu asks Xiao Li about the assassin but Xiao Li says she doesn't know and both brothers Yan didn't tell her anything. After hearing what Xiao Li told her, she want to go find the Yan brothers but she was still weak after the illness effect so she went to rest before go find them.
In the next following days, Yan Chen and Yan Cheung came with some nutrition supplements. Feng Wu who eating breakfast already gotten used to it since the accident she vomited blood. She tried to ask the assassin that came to kill her but both Yan brothers did not say anything and told her to rest and once she get better they will tell her.
" Cheung, where is that assassin? I want to ask some questions."
" Okay, I will tell you what we find after interrogating the assassin."
Feng Wu glances at Yan Cheung for him to stop joking. Yan Chen who sits on the side can see how Feng Wu's gaze is so similar to his father emperor when he gets serious. He wishes for Feng Wu to be their real sister and hope to find his mother even though the hope is slim but he is willing to find even she alive or dead.
" He says someone paid him to come to kill you or at least disfigure your face. Feng Feng, who is the one wants to hurt you?"
Feng Wu sneer after she heard the answer, as she expected Concubine Li is not willing to let her go since she is an obstacle to Feng Wei Wei's path to becoming an empress. Her face gets colder and the aura around her is gloomy and turns to look at the Yan brothers.
" This is my problem I will deal with but I want to ask a favor from you." Feng Wu gazes deeply at Yan Chen.
She knows how powerful Yan Chen is after she saw how he protect her from the shooting arrow. Yan Chen narrows his eyes as waiting for her question.
" I want to get some people to work for me. Can you find those skillful people?"
" Do you want the people to be women or men?
" It can be both."
" Hm. Get me some time. Yan Cheung will bring them when it ready."
" Thank You, Young Master Yan, if there is anything I can help in the future I will help with all my best."
Everyone resumes their own thoughts without any further talks.
After months of finding people for Feng Wu, Yan Chen have to travel back and forth from Wang Capital to Clear Water Village. Yan Cheung has helped Feng Wu to train the people that work for Feng Wu.
In the near forest behind Feng Wu's house, Feng Wu stands on the side of the shade of the trees watching at the guards who are training under Yan Cheung's instructions. She will need the manpower and strategy for her to take revenge. She knows Concubine Li has her sister as the emperor concubine and the fourth prince's mother to help her.
Summer is ending soon and winter will begin so she needs to get ready before going back to Wang Capital since she has already written to her grandmother. Soon her peaceful life will be gone and every step she takes will be bloody hell. Even she died, she will take those people who had hurt her to hell too.
