Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage

Chapter 1065: Chapter 1064: The Commanding King

The idea to use Soft Bone Powder on Chu Qianli was concocted by Gui Tong.

Now, seeing that even a lowly maid dared to bully this once proud and conceited woman, Gui Tong inexplicably felt agitated.

Especially since her tone of voice just now made it seem as if he was a fool.

Such indifference, such coldness—it made him wonder if he was indeed a fool.

Finally, the convoy set out.

Just after leaving the city, someone from behind hurriedly caught up.

After inquiring, Gui Tong came back to report to Chu Minghao, "It is said to be a maid who used to serve Chu Qianli, always by her side."

Chu Minghao originally didn’t want to bother, but Gui Tong, for reasons unknown, thought of that maid he had dealt with earlier.

Gui Tong said softly, "Crown Prince, if you want her to make it to the Imperial City alive, it’s better to let her have one of her own attend to her."

"What do you mean?" Chu Minghao turned around and gave him a glance.

Gui Tong had gotten rid of a maid before, and although Chu Minghao had heard some noise about it, he hadn’t paid it any attention.

Gui Tong was his most capable assistant—disposing of a maid or even an army wouldn’t raise any concern.

Gui Tong thought for a moment, then said, "That maid... she’s from the Commandery Princess’s side, she won’t really take Chu Qianli’s life, but it’s better to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Chu Minghao waved his hand dismissively, "If Feiyan can find some relief in it, let her make a fuss."

Gui Tong’s mood became inexplicably complicated.

"So the Crown Prince means... just to let it go?"

"I can’t afford to have Chu Feiyan hold any grudges against me right now," said Chu Minghao, picking up the reins to leave.

Gui Tong still seemed unwilling to give up, "Crown Prince..."

"Well then, if you pity her, allow that maid to follow and attend to her."

To Chu Minghao, this was a trifle, and he pressed on without further care.

Gui Tong breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn’t know why he pitied Chu Qianli; after all, she was once Her Majesty the Empress and a commander of an army.

Now, because of his command to use Soft Bone Powder, even a lowly maid could bully her.

Gui Tong always had this sense of guilt for destroying a great hero.

In the end, he still returned to the end of the convoy on horseback and personally brought over the girl named Fu Ning.

"Don’t try anything under my watch, if I find out you have ulterior motives, Chu Qianli’s days ahead will surely be filled with suffering!"

"This servant understands, this servant just pities the lady and wishes to serve by her side."

Fu Ning bowed her head, submissive and cautious, "Thank you, sir! Thank you!"

Gui Tong waved his hand dismissively.

Fu Ning finally let out a relieved breath, like receiving a royal pardon, and hurriedly scrambled into Chu Qianli’s carriage, where she immediately burst into tears.

"Miss, you’ve suffered! Have they bullied you? You’ve become so thin..."

Gui Tong had no interest in the conversations of young ladies and rode away.

The convoy continued its journey.

Chu Qianli looked at Fu Ning.

Wiping away her tears, Fu Ning carefully extracted something from her bundle.

"This is... something Mr. Wu Chenzi asked me to give to you."

Chu Qianli opened the small bag, inside was a jade pendant.

On it was inscribed the word "Yang."

Fu Ning immediately explained, "It’s from the second Prince of Nanming, Prince Chu Lingyang’s jade pendant that he gave to Mr. Wu Chenzi in the past. Mr. Wu Chenzi said, with this jade pendant, you can go to Prince Chu Lingyang and whatever you request, the Prince will surely grant."
