Chapter 314 I Want to Eat Something Else
"This slave deserves death! After Ling Anli left the palace, she said she was going to the Wuling Palace to pack up her things, but who knew she actually arranged for someone to make a plate of poisoned meat patties and placed it in Wuling Princess's room."
"What did you say? She even had the nerve to poison someone. This is outrageous!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Princess Wuling didn't eat it, but one of her pet dogs took a bite and died immediately. County... Ling Anli was furious when he saw that the princess didn't die, and he tried to assassinate her. Then, he was accidentally stabbed to death by the prince..."
"Dead?"
"Yes, Prince Yi saw Prince Wu Ling stab his own daughter to death. Now..."
"You brought this upon yourself!"
As soon as the emperor said these four words, Yuan Shun's heart, which had been lifted up in the air, finally settled down again.
He did not show the plate of poisonous meat pies to the emperor. Prince Wuling was angry at the time, and this order was really made on impulse. Wasn't this a deliberate slap in the face of the emperor?
If he really did what the prince ordered, he would probably be dragged out as an assassin and beheaded before he could even say anything to the emperor!
Within one day, the people of Yulin City were bombarded with explosive news, including that King Wuling was infertile, Princess Anli was pregnant out of wedlock and blamed the king for it, and after being exposed, she became angry and poisoned the king to assassinate him, and was then killed by King Wuling in return.
Ever since Fenghuaxueyue closed down, the people were not as well-informed as before, and it had been a long time since there had been such juicy gossip for everyone to discuss.
No matter from which angle you look at it, Prince Yi's Mansion is the biggest loser in this incident. A princess became pregnant but instead of looking for the father of her child, she put the blame on Prince Wuling.
She shamelessly lived in someone else's house, but in the end, the other person didn't have the means to do so. It was really ironic. The most important thing was that she was now dead and had two children, but no one knew who the father of her child was!
Lin Xiafeng leaned against the window, calmly drinking tea while listening to the people around him chattering endlessly, as if they had witnessed Ling Anli's passionate lovemaking and her being pierced through the heart by King Wu Ling's sword.
It all comes down to the same old things. Ling Anli's life will be forever infamous and there is no way to redeem himself.
She finally had some peace and quiet when she returned to the Prince's Mansion. While leaning on the railing to feed the fish, she complained to Caiwei, "Tell me, how stupid does this person have to be to throw his golden life into a cesspool?"
"As a princess of the royal family, she was born with everything that most people in this world would never be able to possess even if they worked their entire lives to achieve."
"But in the end, she ruined her own princess status and her life. Her innocent body was branded a slut, and the virgin girl ended up with two bodies."
"Haha, why is that so ridiculous?"
"How do you know Princess Anli is innocent? Didn't she tell the Emperor herself that she was pregnant?"
Lin Xiafeng snorted disdainfully, "With her stubborn mind, she would have been hanged on Dugu Yu's tree long ago. How could she have another man?"
Caiwei nodded, thinking that her analysis made sense.
"Women, never rely on men for your whole life. You should strive for and fight for what you want on your own!"
"Men are just props for us to achieve our goals. They are to be used, not loved!"
"If a woman regards love as everything in her life, her end will be like Ling Anli's, a miserable death!"
Caiwei looked at Lin Xiafeng as if she understood something, swallowed her saliva, and was too scared to speak.
Lin Xiafeng looked at the fish scrambling for food and muttered to himself, "I only understood these principles after dying once. What a pity! Ling Anli obviously doesn't have such good luck!"
I originally wanted her to drag Qin Qingyao along, and it would be best if Qin Qingyao and Dugu Yu broke up. But she ended up making a joke and getting killed. I really can't rely on her!
The master and servant were chatting when a servant came hurriedly to report, "Concubine, the Crown Prince sent someone to inform you that he will be back for dinner tonight."
"I understand. Go tell the kitchen to prepare more of the prince's favorite dishes!"
"yes!"
Lin Xiafeng immediately threw all the fish food in his hand into the water, then placed his palm lightly on his lower abdomen, revealing an enigmatic smile, "Perhaps Ling Anli isn't completely stupid after all."
If Dugu Yu hadn't been infertile, perhaps her plan would have succeeded!
Dugu Yu has problems, but the prince doesn’t!
Lin Xiafeng put on exquisite makeup, burned priceless incense wood, prepared a large table of exquisite dishes, and was ready to drink and chat with the prince.
What he got in return was a solid slap in the face. "Look at what you have done!"
Lin Xiafeng covered his burning cheek, swallowed all the anger and humiliation in his heart, and forced a smile. "What's wrong with your Highness the Crown Prince? What did Feng'er do to make you so angry?"
"How dare you ask? I already told you to postpone the wedding. Who allowed you to ignore my words?"
"You have to marry during the old lady's mourning period. Are you so worried about getting married? You have to see this prince being criticized by the emperor and criticized by all the officials before you are satisfied, right? You are shameless, but I want more!"
Lin Xiafeng's face was calm and submissive, but the fist hidden in his sleeve was shaking constantly. "I've been in the mansion for so many days now. I've always been very low-key and kept a low profile in everything I do. When have I ever caused gossip or brought shame to the Crown Prince?"
"When did you ever embarrass me? Ling Anli shamelessly brought himself to the Wuling Palace. Didn't he learn that from you? Do you know that damn Qin Qingyao almost dragged me down in front of the emperor?"
"That bitch actually invited more than a dozen daughters of high-ranking officials and let them live in the palace. Do you know that so many people almost became Dugu Yu's concubines? Have you thought about the consequences?"
Those people, however, he had to weigh the pros and cons again and again before he could marry them, and he didn't dare to ask for their consent easily. Qin Qingyao was smart, and took them all into his house at once, without worrying about Dugu Yu starving to death!
Haha, Lin Xiafeng finally understood. Qin Qingyao almost brought bad luck to the prince, so he came back to vent his anger on her?
He is headstrong, arrogant and likes to show off his power to women. What a terrible man he is!
"So, what did the Emperor say? If you want to blame me, I am willing to bear it all. I was confused for a moment and set a bad example. I was wrong."
"But at the time, I just wanted to get to your side as quickly as possible to help you. I didn't think too much about it. I didn't know Ling Anli would follow suit, and I didn't know Qin Qingyao would be so insidious."
"I'm truly sorry for causing trouble for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I'll be back now."
"That's enough! Are you running back now because you're afraid that others will forget to see the joke of our Prince's Mansion?"
Seeing Lin Xiafeng's eyes filled with tears but full of affection, with his head down and the look of a frightened little rabbit at a loss, Ling Jingyu finally began to reflect on whether he had gone too far just now.
She was just a woman, a woman who loved and admired him deeply, and who would do anything to be with him. How much talent, strategy, and foresight could he expect from her?
She had no idea what Ling Anli and Qin Qingyao were going to do, but fortunately, she was smart and sensible, and she never showed off after arriving at the Prince's Mansion.
Unlike that psychopath Ling Anli, who was shameless enough to make such a big and earth-shattering move, with her supporting the cause, no one should care about such a small matter in the Prince's Mansion.
The prince thought of this, and when he looked at the obedient Lin Xiafeng, his anger had mostly dissipated. "Let's eat, and don't talk about this anymore."
"yes!"
Originally, he just planned to have a meal at the Prince's Mansion and then return to the Eastern Palace, but Ling Jingyu, who was having dinner with Lin Xiafeng, was not interested in the food at all.
He looked at the slap mark on Lin Xiafeng's face, and his heart was itchy. There was even a kind of crazy throbbing in his pity.
He looked at Lin Xiafeng's submissive and flattering smile, and her delicate hands as she served him food, and suddenly a strong desire to destroy arose in his heart.
He wanted madly to tear her apart, possess her, crush her into pieces and eat her.
He found himself desperately wanting to see Lin Xiafeng frantically struggling and begging for mercy beneath him, the sight of her in unbearable pain yet having to fawn over him...
Lin Xiafeng saw the Crown Prince's eyes gradually turning red, and saw him staring at her motionlessly. Finally, with a blushing face, she asked shyly, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Is the food not to your liking?"
Ling Jingyu pulled Lin Xiafeng into his arms and said, "It's not that I don't like it, but this prince wants to eat something else!"
The so-called meal-and-leave plan ended up turning into an overnight stay.
Even under normal circumstances, there was a huge disparity in power between the two. Lin Xiafeng was no match for the prince at all and could only be suppressed by him and let him do whatever he wanted.
What's more, at this moment Ling Jingxuan had inhaled a lot of Lin Xiafeng's homemade love fragrance, and she was like a wild beast in its pubic period, biting and ravaging madly.
Lin Xiafeng didn't know Ghost Saint at all. That man was a serious psychopath and a super sadist with terminal cancer!
He is bloodthirsty and likes to see people screaming in pain or even rotting alive. The more brutal and disgusting the sight is, the more excited he becomes!
Therefore, how could the love fragrance recorded in his notebook be just to arouse passion and help people feel better?
Lin Xiafeng was ravaged to the point of convulsions and tortured to the point of despair. She once thought that both she and Ling Jingyu would die in bed that night. Fortunately, when it was almost dawn, Ling Jingyu finally fainted from the long period of high excitement.
All night long, Lin Xiafeng's screams of pain and the Crown Prince's excited roars could be heard from the room, scaring the maids and guards who were on guard outside into trembling with fear.
Only then did I realize that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so cruel at heart.
…
After all this trouble, Ling Jingyu was naturally late for court. This was the first time he missed the morning court without being punished and not allowed to attend court.
