Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 814 - 813: What if, I insist on making a move on her?

Chapter 814: Chapter 813: What if, I insist on making a move on her?

Ding Chen bent his knees and, with a thud, knelt down.

"Prince, I am unfailingly loyal to you, but I think the lady’s words make sense."

Ding Chen knew he was unforgivable, but all of this was for the Prince!

"Prince, if you really break in, you will be the one getting beaten tonight!"

To be beaten was just the surface; deeper still, it was the hearts of the subjects.

The news that Prince Qihe was beaten tonight would surely spread quickly.

The subjects would definitely speculate that in the Emperor’s heart, Prince Qihe was less important than a deceased concubine.

Just this piece of news could create a multi-faceted perception.

Firstly, that Prince Qihe probably wasn’t very important in the Emperor’s heart.

Secondly, if even the late Empress Mother was so important, the status of Prince Yexuan in the Emperor’s heart went without saying.

Prince Qihe being beaten with paddles tonight would be absolutely good news for the business of Prince Yexuan!

But if even Prince Yexuan were to be beaten, then tonight’s advantage would vanish in an instant.

"Prince, the lady is insightful and forward-thinking, all for your sake."

In the study, only Ding Chen and Feng Yexuan were present.

No one else dared to eavesdrop; they all stayed far away from the study.

Not many people knew about their Prince Residence having a new "lady" to this day.

It was the "lady" who ordered Ding Chen tonight to deliver false news to himself, claiming that Chu Qianli had returned home, which made him believe that the person who broke into Ronghua Hall was not Lili.

What chilled Feng Yexuan’s heart was that she could convince Ding Chen; in the future, could she easily rally all his subordinates under the banner of "for his own good"?

"Prince..."

"Leave," Feng Yexuan waved his hand.

Ding Chen knew he had erred. If the Prince punished him, he might have felt better about it.

But the Prince like this...

Ding Chen felt a wave of discomfort.

In the end, he still kowtowed and then got up and left.

At the moment the door closed, a hint of melancholy that no one could understand flickered in Feng Yexuan’s eyes.

From behind the screen in the study, a black figure slowly stepped out.

Feng Yexuan didn’t pay attention, and just remained seated in silence.

The woman in black’s eyes darkened, displeased she said, "When did my son become so disrespectful, not even offering a greeting upon seeing your mother?"

"What exactly do you want?" Feng Yexuan looked up, meeting her gaze: "You want my Prince Residence, then take it."

"What do I want with your Prince Residence?"

Exactly as Chu Qianli had guessed, the woman in black before Feng Yexuan was indeed his "late" Empress Mother, Hua Rong.

Hua Rong looked at her son, devoid of any vitality, and felt even more displeased.

"Now that you know who you are, now that you know everything, why do you still look so dispirited at this moment? Don’t tell me you truly don’t care about anything?"

"Or is it that now, all you care about is that woman who has turned into an ugly monster?"

"Mother, this matter... has nothing to do with her?"

"Has nothing to do with her?"

The temperature on Hua Rong’s face dropped rapidly, and a hint of murderous intent flared in her eyes.

"If it weren’t for me having Ding Chen send you false news tonight, would you have barged in before Feng Qihe?"

Feng Yexuan was silent.

Hua Rong continued, "So, has this woman become formidable enough to affect your every decision?"

"Mother!" Feng Yexuan’s eyes darkened, realizing what she was about to say.

His face turned cold, his words firm: "I have agreed to do what you want, but you also promised not to hurt her! I hope that you..."

"What if," Hua Rong slowly stood up, staring at him with cold eyes, "I insist on doing so? Do you want to kill your own mother?"
