Chapter 573 Who is the bad one?



Although the hands covering the ears were removed, no sound came as expected.

The only sounds I could hear were the wind rustling leaves and the chirping of insects.

Yu Yiluo's face was tense.

[No way, there's been no movement for a while? ]

[Who is the one who can't do it? 】

As if seeing Yu Yiluo's confusion, Qian Jue explained in a low voice.

"Feng Qingqing was knocked unconscious by Prince Duan."

After saying that, he hugged Yu Yiluo and left.

Prince Duan in the room lifted the bed curtain and looked at Feng Qingqing, who had been knocked unconscious by him, in the moonlight. He wished he could strangle her to death right now.

It would have been fine if she just wanted him to sleep with her, but she actually wanted to humiliate him.

Prince Duan suppressed his anger and when he calmed down he felt that he had been too impulsive.

He got out of bed, put on his clothes and veil, and walked to the door and said to the person guarding outside, "Fetch some water and wipe the princess's body."

The maid guarding the door looked at Prince Duan coming out with a surprised expression.

In the past, when the princess summoned her male favorites to sleep with her, they were tortured and covered in wounds. How could they come out of it as well as Master Yu?

Although he was surprised, he didn't dare to ask more questions. He nodded and asked someone to bring water to wipe Feng Qingqing's body.

Returning to the yard, seeing that the light in Yuan Can's room was still on, Prince Duan walked towards his room, walked to the door and knocked.

When Yuan Can heard the knock on the door, he quickly stood up and opened it.

The door opened, and feeling the cold air from Prince Duan, Yuan Can wondered if he had been kicked out.

He let Prince Duan in, closed the door, poured him a cup of tea, and asked softly.

"My Lord, is it not going well?"

Prince Duan gulped down a cup of tea and said with a cold face, "That bitch Feng Qingqing actually wanted me to serve her."

He thought it was a consensual thing and just wanted to vent his anger, but after hearing Feng Qingqing's disgusting plan, he couldn't help it and raised his hand to knock her unconscious.

Seeing Prince Duan so angry, Yuan Can knew that this service was definitely not a simple service, otherwise the prince would not look so ugly.

"Then how did the prince come back?"

"I knocked her out," Prince Duan poured himself another cup of tea, "and I hated her in my heart, so I had no reaction to her."

Yuan Can was stunned. Feng Qingqing was knocked unconscious. How could things be getting worse and worse?

Prince Duan is really not something you can rely on. No wonder he has no power of his own after being in Li Country for so long.

"Won't she come to settle the score with you when she wakes up tomorrow?"

Yuan Can came back to his senses with a worried look on his face.

"Not only are things not getting any better, they're getting worse."

Prince Duan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "Don't worry, tomorrow the King will say that she fainted from knocking her head against the bed."

It was pitch dark at the time, and Feng Qingqing didn't know it was him who hit her.

The next day, Feng Qingsheng woke up and saw that there was no one around her. She got off the bed and called the maid.

"Madam, you're awake."

Feng Qingqing shook her aching head and asked the maid.

"Where is Master Yu?"

Last night she was in high spirits and wanted to try something new, but suddenly her vision went dark and she lost consciousness.

"Mr. Yu left last night, and she asked this servant to clean your body."

"Go and call someone over."

By the time Feng Qing finished washing up, the maid had already brought Prince Duan over.

Prince Duan greeted her with a look of concern, "My Lady, is your head okay?"

"You knocked me unconscious?"

Feng Qingqing became furious upon hearing this and glared at Prince Duan.

"You are innocent, my lady. You knocked yourself unconscious on the bed. Even if I had the courage of heaven, I wouldn't dare to knock you unconscious."

Seeing that he was speaking sincerely, Feng Qingqing thought for a moment and realized that she indeed didn't see him take action. She was about to say something when someone came in from the door.

"Your Highness, Minister Jiang requests an audience."

Prince Duan, who was standing nearby, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Minister Jiang must have something important to discuss with the princess. I'll take my leave now."

Feng Qingqing had no time to dwell on this matter, so she asked someone to bring Minister Jiang in, wanting to see why he came this time.

The last time was for Concubine Xian and the other one. Now that Concubine Xian is in her house, she wants to see what more trouble this man can make.

Minister Jiang, who was waiting at the door, stood straight. When he saw the person who delivered the message coming out, he made a gesture to invite him in, flicked his sleeves and walked into the Princess's Mansion.

He looked around and didn't see the queen, so he looked away and followed the maid to the main hall.

"Minister Jiang, please wait a moment. The princess will come over after she changes her clothes."

Minister Jiang waited patiently for a while. Feng Qingqing brought her maid to the main hall. He did not speak to her, but asked someone to prepare breakfast.

Soon, breakfast was ready. She sat down at the table, as if she had just seen Minister Jiang. "What brings you here so early in the morning, Minister Jiang?"

"Since your Highness hasn't had breakfast yet, let's talk about it after breakfast."

Feng Qingqing picked up the chopsticks and ate the dishes prepared by the maid.

"You talk about yours, I eat mine, it doesn't affect me."

"It's better to discuss important matters in the study."

Seeing how stubborn she was, Feng Qingqing became even more curious about her purpose.

After finishing breakfast, Feng Qingqing stood up.

"Minister Jiang, aren't you going to the study?"

The two went to the study. Feng Qingqing sat down on the chair and looked up at Minister Jiang.

"Now you can tell me."

Minister Jiang did not speak. She waited until her confidant pushed the door open and nodded at her before she said, "Please forgive me, Your Highness. This matter is of great importance. I must be cautious."

"It seems like this is a really big deal," Feng Qingqing leaned back in her chair, pretending to listen attentively. "Go ahead, my people didn't follow us, and the Queen Mother's people didn't dare to get close either, so there's no need to worry."

"You are not actually the Emperor's child, Princess."

As soon as these words came out, Feng Qingqing's smile froze. She sat up straight and said in a deep voice, "Minister Jiang, please don't speak carelessly."

If she wasn't the Queen Mother's child, how could the Queen Mother not know?

"Every word I said is true."

Seeing that she didn't believe him, Minister Jiang continued, "My Lady, the Empress is so kind to you because she doesn't know your identity yet. If she knew you weren't her child, do you think she would still protect you?"

Feng Qingqing sneered.

"You keep saying that I'm not the Queen Mother's child. Then tell me, if I'm not the Queen Mother's child, then whose child is it? It can't be yours, right?"

"That's right," Minister Jiang stared at Feng Qingqing seriously, tears in his eyes.

"You are my child. When the Empress gave birth, the baby was stillborn. My sister was the midwife and she was worried that the Emperor would get angry and implicate the Jiang family, so we adopted you as a newborn and substituted you for the Crown Prince."

"If you don't believe me, just think about the birthmark on your ankle that disappeared."

Seeing that Feng Qingqing listened to what he said, Minister Jiang wiped away his tears.

"That wasn't actually a birthmark. It was caused by medication my sister used. Later, I was worried that the medication would harm you, so I asked my sister to stop taking your medication. That's when the birthmark disappeared."

Feng Qingqing suddenly laughed, stood up and walked in front of Minister Jiang.

"You are my mother? Are you worthy?"
