Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 699 A Power Not to Be Underestimated
"The prince is joking." Chu Jingming thought to himself. It seems that it will not be easy to escape today, so he turned around and sat down, and winked at Jiang Xue.
Jiang Xue understood and stood up and walked to the door: "If your two princes have important matters to discuss, Changle will take his leave first."
"Wait." Chu Feimo stopped him.
"Princess Changle is also an old acquaintance of mine. Why don't you stay and chat?" Although the tone was gentle, it could not be refused.
"Princess Changle is an honored guest in my house. As far as I know, she has no friendship with the prince." Chu Jingming picked up the teacup and stirred the tea gently.
"Oh? Second brother, you have a bad memory, right? Princess Changle was 'invited' by you from me. In terms of dignity, she should be my guest." Chu Feimo's words became more and more tense, and his fingers no longer tapped the armrest.
"Really? I didn't know that you had to use chains to treat distinguished guests."
Ashan appeared at some point and threw a string of iron chains on the ground - they were the ones he had taken off Jiang Xue's feet earlier.
"Although the people of Xiyong are rough, this is not how we treat our guests. Using iron chains to restrict movement is the way to treat death row prisoners.
Princess Changle is of noble status, and the new emperor of Qian State has just ascended the throne, so all countries want to form an alliance with her. How will Qian State react if it learns that the princess has been humiliated here? And how will the emperor view this matter? I thought that the prince had grown up after being demoted to Beiling, but it seems that this is not the case. "
Chu Jingming hadn't finished speaking, but his meaning was clear.
Chu Feimo clenched his fingers, and the calmness in his eyes was no longer there.
Chu Jingming made up his mind: Chu Feimo, I will settle all the accounts between you and me. The east courtyard of the city has been provoked by the Fang family many times. It is impossible for Prince Ming's Mansion to leak the news. The mastermind behind the scenes is obvious.
"Humph, since you know that I have special preferences, you should understand that these chains are just a game between me and the future Crown Princess."
Chu Feimo was humiliated by Chu Jingming in public and was so angry that he wanted to tear him to pieces on the spot, but considering the occasion, he could only hold back his anger and try to stay calm.
"The future Crown Princess?" Chu Jingming sneered, glanced at Jiang Xue who had a cold expression beside him, and thought to himself, Chu Feimo, you dare to provoke such a woman, you must be tired of living.
There is more than just the power of Qian Country behind Jiang Xue. Chu Jingming knows very well how much Xiao Zhan values her.
If she is touched, not only will the Tieyun Army of Qian Kingdom flatten Xiyong, but the army of Beiling will also respond. Although Zhenbei Hou cannot go to the battlefield at present, Beiling still has the South to advance.
In recent correspondence with Yun Che, there was news that the Nan family and the Gu family were about to marry. This meant that the armies of the two major families would unite to form a force that could not be underestimated. Their combat effectiveness was not even inferior to that of the Iron Cloud Army of the Qian Kingdom!
"Your Highness's fantasies are becoming more and more bizarre."
"Whether it's strange or not, we'll have to wait and see."
Chu Feimo took a deep breath, glanced at Jiang Xue, and then leaned back in his chair.
"I know you are looking for the whereabouts of that child."
When the child was mentioned, Jiang Xue and Chu Jingming's faces changed. They both looked at Chu Feimo at the same time, their eyes filled with tension.
"It's really interesting to see how nervous you are." Chu Feimo saw their reactions and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Changle, your men act quickly, but unfortunately they are not strong enough." After saying that, he gestured to the guards beside him, and the guards walked in holding a large box.
Jiang Xue looked at the box and had a bad feeling in her heart. Her eyes changed from worry to coldness.
"Show it to the princess." After Chu Feimo gave the order, the guard opened the box, and inside was the head of the spy sent to the Fang family!
"Where is the child?" Jiang Xue asked in a cold tone, looking at the head in the box.
The atmosphere around Chu Jingming also became extremely cold. His eyes were as sharp as ice knives, and his hands were clenched into fists under his sleeves, ready to attack at any time.
"Want a child? Sure, as long as you agree to my conditions, I will return the child to you unharmed." Chu Feimo said.
"What if you don't agree?" Jiang Xue asked.
“Then…” Chu Feimo took out a dagger and stroked the blade gently.
"No rush. I can send back a piece of the child's flesh every day until you agree. But you have to decide quickly. The baby can't bear too much pain. I'm worried that the child won't be able to hold on in a few days."
"Beast!" Chu Jingming growled and swung his palm, directly breaking Chu Feimo's shoulder!
He jumped up and pressed Chu Feimo's wound with his big hand, causing Chu Feimo's face to twist into a ball with pain.
"Come and see! Prince Ming has injured the crown prince! Someone come quickly!"
Seeing this, the accompanying guards immediately became panicked. Some shouted for help, while others rushed to the streets to spread the news.
Soon, everyone in Fengxiao City knew about the conflict between Prince Ming and the Crown Prince. The news quickly spread to the palace, and Emperor Xiyong was furious when he heard it. He immediately ordered the two princes to enter the palace and question them overnight.
With a "bang", a tea bowl fell to the ground, tea splashed everywhere, and the fragments scattered all over the ground, almost scratching Chu Feimo and Chu Jingming who were kneeling on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger and don't hurt the dragon's body."
The queen hurried to comfort him, gently soothing the emperor while secretly observing his expression. At the same time, she did not forget to glance at her own son Chu Feimo out of the corner of her eye. Seeing the bruises on his face, her resentment towards Chu Jingming deepened.
"Hmph!" Emperor Xiyong pushed the Queen's hand away and slammed the table with his palm. The sound was so deafening that even cracks appeared on the table.
"Are you trying to force me to death?" he roared, his voice so loud that even Jiang Xue, who was standing beside him, felt a palpitation in her heart.
"Father, please calm down. I know I am wrong." The two brothers bowed their heads and confessed their guilt together, their tone full of sincerity.
"You know you're wrong? Very good! Look up and tell me everything that happened! How can the royal family keep its dignity when princes fight among themselves? Do you still have me as your father? Second brother, you speak first!"
Emperor Xiyong has always favored his second son, and this time is no exception. He first asked Chu Jingming to explain.
The Queen was dissatisfied with this and pretended to be distressed and said, "Your Majesty, look at Fei Mo's face, how badly it is injured! People outside are saying that the prince offended the crown prince, why do you still want him to explain first?"
"Mother, I am fine. I just have some minor injuries. Since father has spoken, let my second brother speak first."
Chu Feimo remained calm on the surface, but in his heart he was thinking about how to take advantage of this opportunity. He knew that his father favored Chu Jingming, so he was not in a hurry to argue, believing that the ministers around him who supported him would speak for him.
As expected, an official from the prince's party immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, there is an order of seniority. Besides, the prince is injured, so he should explain the situation first."
"Then let the prince speak first!" Emperor Xiyong did not want to get entangled with the officials anymore and decided to let Chu Feimo speak first.
