EBE Chapter 168 The "Cuckolded" Eldest Princess
Chapter 168 The "Cuckolded" Eldest Princess
As soon as Feng Xin finished speaking, the woman in black beside her made a gesture towards the air.
Three guards suddenly appeared inside the room. Before the three doctors could beg for mercy, they covered their mouths and dragged them away.
"Your Highness..." The woman in black looked at Feng Xin with a worried expression, hesitating to speak.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xin shakily stood up, leaning on the armrest of her chair. She looked deeply shocked, laughing and crying at the same time.
“Aru, Mother has always known, so all my previous efforts to bide my time for ‘that position’ were in vain. She never considered me at all…”
It's laughable that I fought tooth and nail with my two imperial sisters over this, when in fact I was the least likely person to sit in that position!
The woman in black quickly stepped forward to support Feng Xin, who was on the verge of collapsing. Her eyes were filled with heartache, after all, she had witnessed how much effort the prince had put in to disguise himself for more than ten years, only to have it all come to nothing in the end!
So she didn't know what to say for a moment, and could only try to comfort her: "Your Highness, don't worry too much. This world is vast and full of wonders! There must be someone who can cure this disease, it's just that such a person hasn't appeared yet!"
"What did you say?" Upon hearing the woman in black's words, Feng Xin's eyes suddenly lit up with a strong light. She asked the question, and without waiting for a reply, she began to mutter to herself:
"That's right, that's right! There's always someone who can cure me. If Fengming can't, then we'll look in the other three kingdoms! But before that, I need to have supreme power!"
"Aru, hurry! Go to Prince Rui's residence and ask him to come to my residence tonight at Hai hour (9-11 PM) for a meeting. There is important matter to discuss!"
Seeing that Feng Xin's expression had returned to normal, the woman in black felt much relieved and then accepted the order to leave: "I'll go right away."
Not long after the woman in black left, Feng Xin also pushed open the door and came out, heading straight for the backyard.
In the backyard of the First Princess's residence, in the Baiyu Courtyard.
Bai Yu is now pregnant and, with the favor of the eldest princess and the tolerance of the lord Chen, she is acting like a tyrant in the backyard.
Those high-ranking courtiers looked down on his smug and arrogant demeanor, and often mocked him, looking at him with a complex mix of envy and pity.
He was furious about this and wanted to vent his anger on someone, but the servants who had no status usually didn't dare to provoke him, so he could only take it out on his subordinates.
"You bastards, a bunch of bastards! Once my son ascends the throne, I will kill you all..." Bai Yu sat angrily on the soft couch, cursing as he pinched the soft flesh of the servant serving tea hard on his waist.
The servant was wincing in pain, his fingers scalded and swollen from the spilled tea, but he still held the teacup steadily, not daring to slack off in the slightest. This showed that he had been subjected to this kind of torment many times.
The eldest princess Feng Xin and the hurriedly arriving mistress Chen Shi, who were outside the door, naturally heard everything clearly.
Chen heard that the eldest princess had first summoned many doctors, and then angrily brought her personal attendants to the backyard. He was worried about Bai Yu, so he rushed over.
To be precise, he was worried about the baby in Bai Yu's belly. It wasn't that he was really kind-hearted, but rather that he was waiting to leave the father and keep the daughter!
Of course, this was no secret within the manor, and even the eldest princess tacitly approved of his actions; only Bai Yu was unaware of it!
Hearing Bai Yu's outrageous and vulgar words, her eyelids twitched involuntarily. She cursed him inwardly as a fool, but then forced herself to adopt a gentle and virtuous demeanor, and said to the First Princess:
“Your Highness, Lady Bai is usually quite gentle and obedient, but her current condition is probably due to her pregnancy…”
However, before he could finish speaking, Feng Xin gave him a cold look. After he fell silent, she kicked the door open and asked with an inscrutable expression, "Xiao Yu, who are you trying to kill?"
Bai Yu and the servant inside the room were startled by the commotion. The teacup in the servant's hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Before Bai Yu could conceal the sinister look in his eyes, he met Feng Xin's gaze as she entered. He even seemed to see a hint of murderous intent in Feng Xin's eyes.
Bai Yu was startled and looked again, but the other person's eyes were deep and unfathomable, revealing nothing.
He thought to himself that he must have seen wrong, then glanced at the servant kneeling on the ground, and quickly rolled his eyes, stepping forward like a willow in the breeze, and clinging to Feng Xin's hand in a coquettish manner:
"Your Highness, I'm talking about that dog of a servant. He just knocked over the teacup and scalded me. You must punish him properly!"
"Your Highness, I'm innocent..." The servant knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly and begging for mercy.
Feng Xin glanced at the servant, then smiled sinisterly:
"Very well, since he can't serve tea properly, then there's no need for his hands to exist. Guards, drag him away and chop off his hands, then beat him to death!"
Soon, the servant was dragged away, and Chen, who followed in, felt that the eldest princess seemed a bit strange today.
Before he could speak, the First Princess's eerie voice rang out: "All of you, leave. No one is allowed to enter without my permission, no matter what sound you hear!"
Chen glanced at Bai Yu, whose belly wasn't showing yet and who looked shy, and guessed that the two might be about to engage in illicit relations in broad daylight. For the sake of the child in Bai Yu's womb, he hesitated and wanted to advise, "Your Highness..."
"Hmm?" The eldest princess's eyes were full of warning, and her tone showed no respect for him, her lord.
Finally, Chen gritted her teeth and left the room, praying in her heart that the eldest princess knew what was going on!
On the way back to the main courtyard, Chen's attendant asked, "My lord, are we just going to let His Highness run wild like this? What about the baby in Bai Yu's belly...?"
When she got to the crucial point, Madam Chen looked at her sharply: "Words can be dangerous! His Highness wouldn't do anything to the child he's been waiting for so long!"
Unless, she knows this is not her child, but how could that be!
Chen shook her head, walked forward, and said, "Let's go!"
The attendants quickly followed.
Inside the white-roofed house.
Bai Yu also felt that the eldest princess was very strange today. Her smile never reached her eyes, and she was staring at his stomach with a very gloomy look.
"Your...Your Highness?" Bai Yu clutched his stomach and took two steps back.
The eldest princess also took two steps forward, grabbed Bai Yu's left hand, and said, "Is Xiao Yu afraid of me? Did he do something to offend me?"
"No...no! How could I, your servant, dare to do anything to betray Your Highness!" Bai Yu's eyes flickered, and his tone lacked confidence. He continued to back away until he collapsed onto the soft couch, his left hand still held high by Feng Xin.
"Really? Then tell me, Xiaoyu, whose child is this little bastard in your belly?" Feng Xin suddenly revealed a sinister smile and whispered close to Bai Yu's ear.
Bai Yu's pupils widened in surprise, and then, disregarding the hierarchy, he forcefully pushed Feng Xin away.
Seeing that Feng Xin was looking at him as if he were dead, Bai Yu controlled his trembling hands and stammering tongue, and forced a smile:
"What are you saying, Your Highness? The child in my belly is your own flesh and blood! I am devoted to Your Highness, how can Your Highness doubt me like this!"
