Chapter 76: Shamelessly Chasing His Wife
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Feng Weiping clenched her hands into fists and questioned furiously, “Ninth
Imperial Uncle, what do you mean by this? I’m the Fourth Princess of Tianxia;
I’m your imperial niece! Are you really going to kill me for a mere woman?”
“A mere woman? You seem to have forgotten that she’s the Princess Regent of Tianxia,” Feng Yili said frostily.
Everyone’s expression changed upon hearing Feng Yili’s words. Did this mean that Feng Yili acknowledged Yu Yunxi’s identity?
Yu Yunxi looked at Feng Yili. It would be a lie to say that she was not moved. She took a deep breath before she crouched down and patted the white tiger’s back, silently communicating with it.
Meanwhile, Feng Weiping began to panic. She really did not expect that Feng Yili would acknowledge Yu Yunxi.
At this time, Yu Yongnian frowned slightly. He said, intending to plead on Feng Weiping’s behalf, “Prince Regent, the Fourth Princess’ behavior is indeed inappropriate, but…”
Feng Yili interjected stonily, “General Yu, did I allow you to speak?”
Yu Yongnian’s face turned pale, and he stopped talking.
At some point, Yu Yunxi had walked over. She said, “Prince Regent, let the Fourth Princess go. If you hurt her, it’ll be difficult to explain the matter to the Emperor.”
Upon hearing this, a contemptuous expression flashed across Feng Weiping’s face as she thought to herself, ‘So what if you have the protection of Ninth Imperial Uncle? With your timid personality, you won’t be able to achieve anything great.’
When the others heard Yu Yunxi’s pleas, they also had thoughts of their own. Yu Yunxi was only the goddaughter of the King of Xinan while Feng Weiping was the Emperor’s daughter. How could she compare to Feng Weiping? As such, it was not surprising that she did not dare to seek revenge from Feng Weiping.
At the same time, the maidservant behind Yu Wanrong quickly said in a low voice, “Miss, don’t be angry. The Fourth Princess’ status is much higher than that of Yu Yunxi, and the Fourth Princess likes the Third Young Master a lot. She’ll definitely help you to deal with Yu Yunxi again in the future.”
“Ha, I thought she was very domineering, but as it turns out, she’s nothing much, ” Yu Wanrong said with a scoff when she saw Yu Yunxi seemingly backing down. She felt much better now. However, this feeling did not last long, and her smile disappeared again.
Seeing that Feng Yili did not say anything, Yu Yunxi reached out and snatched the sword from Feng Yili. Unexpectedly, she kicked Feng Weiping’s waist with all her might after that.
However, thanks to Feng Weiping’s martial arts, when she fell down to the
arena, she was not injured at all. Nonetheless, she was furious.
‘How dare Yu Yunxi kick me!’
Yu Yunxi looked down at Feng Weiping as she wiped the blood off her hands and said casually, “Fourth Princess, since you want to liven things up, how can we enjoy ourselves without your participation?”
“Yu Yunxi!” Feng Weiping shouted.
Yu Yunxi smiled and clapped her hands.
Following that, the white tiger pounced on Feng Weiping.
Feng Weiping was skilled at using whips. However, she did not carry her whip today because she wanted to look good in her dress. Hence, she could defend herself with her bare hands now. In just a blink of an eye, there were already many scratch marks on her arms.
Everyone was shocked by this scene.
The Fourth Princess’ martial arts were personally taught by the Emperor, and she had always been proud of it. Every time the imperial family hunted, she would always come out on top. However, she fell into such a sorry state today when faced with the white tiger. In comparison, Yu Yunxi was not in such a sorry state when dealing with so many wolves earlier. At this time, the eunuchs nearby cried out, panicking.
“Hurry up and save the Fourth Princess!”
Some people left to look for the guards while some went to report this incident to the Emperor.
Meanwhile, Yu Yongnian looked at Feng Weiping, who was trying to avoid the white tiger, and said to Yu Yunxi in a low voice, “Eldest Sister, you’ve vented your anger, but have you thought about the consequences? You’re going to cause trouble for both the King of Xinan’s Residence and the Yu Residence.”
Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and glanced at Yu Yongnian. She wanted to take back her previous words. It was not the Fourth Young Master of the Yu family who was hard to see through but Yu Yongnian, the Third Young Master of the Yu family.
Yu Yongnian had been present from earlier until now. He did not look like he was watching a show nor did he look worried. What was he thinking exactly?
Yu Yunxi waved her hands and said lightly, “The Emperor has many reasons to act against the King of Xinan’s Residence, but this incident won’t be the reason. Moreover, Little Brother, I’m helping you. This is a good opportunity for the hero to save the damsel in distress. Don’t miss this opportunity.”
Finally, Yu Yongnian’s expression turned a little dark when he heard these words. He scoffed coldly before he flew over to help Feng Weiping. Yu Yunxi’s eyes flashed as she looked at Yu Yongnian’s back.
‘This third brother of mine is not simple…’
When Yu Yongnian finally arrived at the arena below, the white tiger had already stopped attacking Feng Weiping. It took advantage of the open door and had already left.
Feng Weiping, who was riddled with wounds, had never been in such a miserable state before. While she was in Yu Yongnian’s arms, she said through gritted teeth, “Men, bring that beast back and skin it alive for me!”
The guards rushed over, panicking.
“Yes, Princess!”
If the white tiger hurt people in the palace, even if they had ten heads, it would not be enough to pay for the crime.
Meanwhile, Yu Yunxi’s eyes glinted coldly when she heard those words. Just as she turned around, Feng Yili stopped her.
“Are you going to save that white tiger?” Feng Yili asked, guessing her thoughts.
Yu Yunxi hesitated for a moment before nodding. The tiger was being hunted because of her so she had to save it.
“Even if you find it, how can you bring it away? The palace is tightly guarded…” Feng Yili said calmly.
Yu Yunxi frowned. It was indeed a problem.
“If you ask me, I’ll help you,” Feng Yili said. She only needed to say the word, and he would definitely help her.
Yu Yunxi felt a little awkward. She found it difficult to ask him for a favor.
Seeing that Yu Yunxi did not respond, Feng Yili said, “Forget it. I’m sure your silence is tacit acquiescence. Jiang Ying, go find the white tiger and bring it away.”
Yu Yunxi and Jiang Ying were both speechless.
This was the first time Jiang Ying had seen Feng Yili act so shamelessly. It was truly difficult to describe his feelings at this moment. After taking a deep breath, he pretended to be calm as he said, “Yes, Your Royal Highness.”
Feng Yili did not respond. Instead, he walked over to Yu Yunxi’s side. Under the long sleeves of his robe, his fingers hooked those of Yu Yunxi.
“You!” Yu Yunxi’s eyes widened in shock.
“The Fourth Princess will definitely complain to Imperial Brother about this humiliation. If you don’t want to implicate the King of Xinan’s Residence, you should push everything to me,” Feng Yili said calmly.
“This matter…”
“Don’t tell me that you’re going to shoulder the responsibility for this. I won’t allow my Princess Regent to be bullied..”
