The Tempestuous Consort - Wilfully Pampered by the Beastly Highness - Chapter 849

Chapter 849: Yuan Fangfei Wants Feng Tianlan to Return Home?

Xi Jin clenched his fists and turned his gaze to the sky. The round moon hung high while Dai’er’s smiling face seemed to appear in the moonlight. It made his heart ache. It was so painful that he found it difficult to breathe.

“I, a stately prince, had my wedding called off my wedding day. It was an utter loss of face. I’m already showing leniency by treating her this way,” Xi Jin said coldly. Compared with Dai’er’s death, these things were as simple as tickling someone for Shen Yunya.

As for the matter of Dai’er, he did not want to say it. Or at least, he did not want to speak about it to others.

He planned everything that happened today. He first employed means to make Shen Yunya take an aphrodisiac pill. Her passions were stirred, and she saw anyone as the person whom she desired. Then he summoned the man who had been in love with her for many years. Following this, he switched the white cloth, making her a fallen woman. She would become a contemptible woman who tried, in a futile attempt, to make him a scapegoat.

His purpose tonight was to leave Shen Yunya with no choice but to become his common consort. She would provoke a lot of hostility from people. His revenge had only just begun.

Feng Tianlan obviously did not believe his words. She asked, “Is that really the case?”

“Miss Feng, you seem to be very interested in this matter.” Xi Jin looked at her carefully. The warmth in his eyes had turned into an unfamiliar chill.

Feng Tianlan thought about it and did not continue to probe. After all, she could cause suspicion if she were to keep going. Big Brother Jin now was no longer the Big Brother Jin who had formerly lost his reason.

“No. I was just curious because I saw it.” Feng Tianlan smiled politely and said, “So, I will take my leave first.”

Xi Jin also did not stop her. He looked at her as she turned around and left. Then he looked up to gaze at the round moon and smiled to himself. So, what if Dai’er really had come back? He was absolutely disgraceful. She probably thought it beneath her dignity to acknowledge him.

On the way to Zhaoyang Palace, Feng Tianlan bumped into Xi Lin’s personal palace maid, who said, “Miss Feng, the Princess had a little too much to drink. She is already asleep and has asked me to escort you out of the palace.”

“You go back and take care of the Princess. I can leave the palace myself. It’s okay.” Feng Tianlan was somewhat uneasy. She did not see Sister Lin after she had left the banquet.

“The Princess has instructed before going to bed that I, your slave servant, must send you to the palace gate. The Princess worries about you,” the maid replied.

Feng Tianlan dropped the subject and allowed the palace maid to show her to the gate. The maid saw Feng Tianlan off in the carriage sent by Bailan Alliance before her mind was at ease and she returned to the palace.

The wheels of the carriage rolled in the direction of Bailan Alliance. But only a few tens of meters away the carriage stopped, and the driver said, “Your Highness, the Shen Manor’s carriage has blocked in front.”

Feng Tianlan drew the carriage curtain apart to take a look. Just as expected, it was the Shen Manor’s carriage. Shen Yunya and Yuan Fangfei, who were opposite of her, also opened the carriage curtain and walked toward her.

“Come down. Let’s talk.” Shen Yunya shot daggers at Feng Tianlan.

Feng Tianlan leaned against the carriage window and peered down at Shen Yunya. She gave a mocking laugh and said, “We have nothing to talk about.”

“Dai’er, come home with us. How can you, an unmarried woman, stay at the bridegroom’s family house? Aren’t you ashamed?” Yuan Fangfei looked as if she was concerned about her.

Feng Tianlan reached out to lift up her hair, which was blown around by the night breeze, and looked at the mother and daughter in front of her. She looked at the disgusting faces of the younger woman, who had ordered her to get out of the carriage to talk, and the older woman. The former had spoken to her in the tone of voice an elder concerned about the younger generation would use.

“Dai’er?” Feng Tianlan mockingly sneered at Shen Yunya and said, “Ya’er, do you want everyone to know that Shen Qingdai is back?”

“Mother, don’t call her that in the future. She is Feng Tianlan, and she still is Feng Tianlan now,” said Shen Yunya through clenched teeth.
