Chapter 579: Chapter 578: Just a Mere Servant

This was the second time Feng Yexuan had seen Chu Qianli since she returned to the Prince Residence.

Before he even entered the door, he heard Chu Qianli’s angry voice from inside.

Followed by the sound of a slap.

"You useless creature, can’t you do anything right? What use are you to me?"

A maid screamed as the strike sent her tumbling to the ground.

Blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, but she didn’t have a chance to wipe it away.

Desperately kneeling on the ground, she kept kowtowing, "This maid deserves to die! This maid deserves to die! Your Majesty, please forgive!"

But what responded to her was an angry kick from Chu Qianli.

"Ah..." The maid was thrown to the ground, this time, she was in too much pain to get up, wailing miserably.

Chu Qianli was truly in a foul mood today. Although the wound on the back of her head was not serious, it still hurt when touched unintentionally while combing her hair.

Especially since that injury had a severe impact on the hairstyle she wanted to achieve.

Moreover, the damned maid had carelessly pulled her hair, causing a sharp pain in her wound, and her fury soared to new heights.

Seeing the maid lying on the ground, her anger was not appeased, she walked over and stepped on the maid’s chest.

"Speak! Did someone send you to torment me deliberately? Tell me!"

With a little force, the maid immediately coughed up fresh blood.

Though in near fainting pain, the maid struggled to explain for the sake of her life.

"This maid, this maid dares not, this maid... knows her wrong, this maid will never dare again."

Chu Qianli was about to step down when from outside came the maid’s respectful voice, "Greetings to the Prince!"

Feng Yexuan had arrived!

Chu Qianli’s expression changed, and she quickly withdrew her foot.

She originally intended to help the maid up, but Feng Yexuan had already pushed open the door and she was too late to assist.

Thinking quickly, she went over and took hold of Feng Yexuan’s arm.

"Yexuan, this maid disrespected me, I suspect she is a spy sent by evildoers, so I was... about to force a confession out of her."

She had indeed lost her temper just now, otherwise, knowing that Feng Yexuan would be arriving soon, she would never have troubled the maid at this time.

But just now, that damned little maid truly hurt her.

Her anger had flared up instantly and she could not repress it.

Feng Yexuan looked down at the maid on the ground, writhing in pain and yet still trying to get up.

His face was expressionless, "What did she do?"

"This maid, this maid deserves to die, this maid... caused pain to... the Empress’s wound, Prince, please... please spare my life..."

She was still spitting up blood, it seemed the kick from Chu Qianli was not light.

Feng Yexuan’s eyes were cold, and he felt somewhat irritable for no apparent reason.

"Brother Yexuan, she must be a spy sent by those people..."

"She is one of the maids specially selected by Leng Ji to attend to you on my orders."

Chu Qianli was slightly taken aback, so, did he believe that this maid was not a spy?

But she had already injured someone, and this needed an explanation.

"She was disrespectful to me just now, I thought she was going to assassinate..."

"Since she disrespected Lili, take her away and punish her with thirty strikes of the cane," Feng Yexuan ordered with a slight wave of his hand.

His words carried a hint of displeasure.

The guards came and dragged the maid away.

The maid did not cry out or beg for mercy.

The Prince had not given an order for execution, and the maid knew that, according to the rules of the Prince Residence, her life was spared.

Only to endure some physical punishment.

Better than losing her life.

So, there was no need to beg for mercy.

Feng Yexuan sat down in front of a chair.

But Chu Qianli was looking at her own hand.

She had been holding his arm, but he walked quickly, and her hand slipped away at once.

It was as though he intentionally avoided her.

His attitude towards her was very cold. Was it only because she had punished a maid?

Just a lowly maid, was it worth it?
