Chapter 587: Chapter 586: If You Can’t Cure It, You’ll Never Leave the Prince Residence for Life

Xiaoyao didn’t think much of it, assuming it was because she wanted to speak and then didn’t, which had irked this temperamental Prince.

After some thought, she still couldn’t help but say, "Do none of you masters value human life?"

Feng Yexuan narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"

"That maid just made a careless mistake, and when combing her hair, she touched her wound, and for that, you have her beaten to death? Isn’t that too excessive?"

She wasn’t trying to stir up trouble behind anyone’s back; she truly felt that such behavior was just too cruel.

"And you."

Xiaoyao turned her head to look at him, her eyes full of resentment.

"Even if you are a noble Prince, lofty and esteemed, you can’t just trample over people’s lives like this!"

Feng Yexuan didn’t reply.

Xiaoyao continued, "She had already sustained such severe internal injuries, that kick was nearly fatal, and yet you ordered someone to beat her with sticks, you..."

She hesitated, then exhaled, resigned, "Forget it, you are always so high and mighty, when have you ever cared about the life and death of servants?"

To them, killing a servant was as simple as stepping on an ant.

Xiaoyao didn’t know why she was complaining to him; such a distinguished master would never empathize with them.

So, why complain at all?

"You say, that maid has sustained very severe internal injuries?"

"She’s been vomiting blood, she almost died!" Xiaoyao glared at him, "The orders you give, and yet you pretend to be clueless... forget it, let’s pretend I didn’t say anything!"

Feng Yexuan indeed looked very displeased.

But it wasn’t because she complained about his cruelty, but rather, that Chu Qianli had injured a maid so severely.

Just because she touched her wound?

The deceased woman, she would have never done such a thing before...

"Prince, the tea is almost ready, and I have an idea."

The young girl seated on the little stool, still brewing his tea, was contemplating something.

Feng Yexuan focused on her profile.

Hearing that Chu Qianli had seriously injured a maid had dampened his mood, but now, looking at her figure, it inexplicably lifted somewhat.

"Thinking about what?" he couldn’t help but ask.

"Prince, has someone poisoned your throat before, to leave it like this? It seems the toxins haven’t been completely cleared, have they?"

It was somewhat hoarse, not unpleasant to listen to, but when he spoke, his throat must have been very uncomfortable.

Feng Yexuan continued staring at her profile.

That remark, it seemed, the deceased woman had said something similar before.

His mood was growing more and more strange.

Finally managing to regulate his emotions, he said indifferently, "And?"

"I can cure your throat for you!"

Xiaoyao’s mood suddenly improved, "Prince, if I cure your throat, could you, in light of my contribution, overlook those few stalks of lavender..."

"It depends on my mood," Feng Yexuan’s expression remained unchanged, and it was unclear if he agreed or not.

"But if you fail to cure it, I have plenty of ways to deal with you."

"What?" Xiaoyao almost lost her composure!

Curing him might not yield a reward, but failing meant punishment?

If she had known, she wouldn’t have brought it up!

She meant well, and yet he was being so unreasonable!

"Hmm?" Feng Yexuan raised an eyebrow, staring at her face.

Seeing her secretly angry expression, his mood brightened a few more notches.

He even felt a slight urge to laugh.

"Aren’t you going to treat me quickly? Fail, and you’ll never dream of leaving the Prince Residence in your life!"

"Are you... serious?" Did she dig herself into a hole?

"You could try!" Feng Yexuan felt that his decision was a very good one.

As long as she couldn’t cure his throat, he had a perfect reason to keep her here for life.

But why on earth had he thought about "for life"?
