Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 604 - 603: Doubting her is doubting the feelings between her and the Prince.

Chapter 604: Chapter 603: Doubting her is doubting the feelings between her and the Prince.

The entire Prince Residence had been searched, except for Feng Yexuan’s Wuzhou Garden and Feng Jinrui’s Yujing Pavilion, practically everywhere else.

There was no news of Fu Ning whatsoever.

They had even combed through the back mountains.

Still, there were no traces of Fu Ning on the back mountains.

Where could a living person have possibly gone?

Feng Yexuan had spent a long time in his study.

There was a feeling of wanting to escape, something he had never experienced before.

He simply did not want to leave the study, as if by staying put, he would not encounter certain individuals.

But he did not know why he was avoiding her.

Clearly, she was the one he yearned for day and night...

"Prince, we have searched every place," Leng Ji reported after Jingri had left, "Prince, there are absolutely no signs of Fu Ning’s escape in the back mountains; I suspect that Fu Ning is still inside the Prince Residence."

Of course, Leng Ji only dared to say this after Jingri had left.

"Inside the Prince Residence, there are only two courtyards we haven’t searched: the Prince’s Wuzhou Garden, and Fourteenth Master’s Yujing Pavilion."

"What about that girl?" Feng Yexuan suddenly asked.

Leng Ji thought for a moment before he realized who ’that girl’ referred to.

Leng Ji hastily replied, "Two hours ago, Lady Xiaoyao woke up and went back to the west wing by herself."

Feng Yexuan stood up.

Leng Ji was somewhat startled, "Prince, are you going to see Lady Xiaoyao?"

"Why would I want to go see her?" Feng Yexuan frowned.

Going to see a lady in the dead of night, unless they were in some sort of relationship!

Leng Ji was at a loss for words. Wasn’t it the Prince who had brought her up first? He immediately prepared to leave after asking about Lady Xiaoyao, so of course Leng Ji thought the Prince intended to go see Lady Xiaoyao.

"Prince, then where are you..."

"What’s the situation with Lili?" Feng Yexuan stepped out of the study.

"She came by twice, and I sent her away both times."

The Prince had said he wanted some peace and quiet tonight, so Leng Ji did not let Chu Qianli in.

Chu Qianli seemed to only be looking for some information, and upon knowing Feng Yexuan was still in the study, she did not insist on meeting and left.

"Prince, there are some things, I am not sure if I should speak of them."

"If you don’t want to say it, then shut up," Feng Yexuan stepped out of the study, standing on the corridor, yet he did not know in which direction to step.

All of a sudden, he was directionless.

"Prince," Leng Ji was the kind of person who must speak his mind.

If he was not allowed to speak, he would suffer internally.

"Don’t you find this matter very strange, Prince?"

Although the Prince said we must not suspect the Empress, Her Majesty is indeed very suspicious.

"Prince, given the relationship between Her Majesty and Fu Ning, even if Fu Ning truly were a spy, knowing Her Majesty’s character, the most she would do is to capture her and bring her back," Leng Ji continued.

Chu Qianli, the way she was before, despite also being decisive and firm in her actions, that was only towards enemies.

Someone like Fu Ning... Even if deemed an enemy, once a friend in Chu Qianli’s eyes, was not an absolute enemy.

She could not be so ruthless.

But the Empress of today... without discrimination, her heart has become too ruthless.

"Lili has gone through untold hardships, every step taken has been tread through blood," Feng Yexuan looked up at the dark sky overhead.

These words were to convince Leng Ji as much as they were to convince himself.

"At this point, she can only force herself to become ruthless, if she is not ruthless enough, the one who gets hurt will be herself."

"Prince..."

"Unless you think in this matter, Lili is the perpetrator," Feng Yexuan said.

These words made Leng Ji’s heart tremble, and he dared not speak another half word.

How could he suspect the Empress? She was their future Princess Consort!

Together with the Prince, after overcoming countless difficulties and near-death experiences, they had arrived at this point.

To suspect Chu Qianli was akin to suspecting the love between her and the Prince.

"Prince, where are you going?"

Seeing the Prince begin to walk, Leng Ji could only follow, but this direction... towards the west wing?

The one residing in the west wing... was Lady Xiaoyao!
