Chapter 526 - Scheming, Concubine Xiang’s End (2/2)
If there was really a reward, she would say that she didn’t want it, and she just wanted to follow Feng Yuran.
When a beautiful woman cried tearfully, and she had just lost her child, any man would want to make up for it. When she officially got a t.i.tle, she would have more confidence when she fought with Mo Xuetong in the future. From the way Feng Yuran looked, he cared for her and the child in her belly. Otherwise, he would not have punished the people that the Empress Dowager and the Empress had bestowed to him with the death penalty.
When those concubines were beaten to death yesterday, Concubine Xiang was also afraid. But later, she felt happier the more she thought about it. The more people were killed, the more Feng Yuran cared for her. That was why she dared to make such a scene today. She just wanted Feng Yuran to care about her more so that she could pick a good position. If she would become a second consort, she would have more confidence in victory when she competed with Mo Xuetong.
“Your Highness, if I hadn’t told you that I was pregnant in a hurry, Her Lady and all the other concubines wouldn’t have been so hostile to me.” Concubine Xiang raised her face that was bathed in tears and looked at Feng Yuran in hope that he would pity her.
She also slandered Mo Xuetong, but she forgot that everyone had seen how she framed Mo Xuetong that day.
“Where did you and I have a son? How did he become the little prince?” Feng Yuran’s pretty eyes lifted slightly as he looked at Concubine Xiang with an evil look. He enunciated each word slowly.
Little Prince, Concubine Xiang really dared to dream about it!
His words made Concubine Xiang stunned and stop crying. She was a little out of breath.
She took a deep breath and calmed down before she looked up at Feng Yuran pitifully and said, “I, I was wrong. It’s, it was a little princess, it was a daughter…”
“It doesn’t matter if it was a daughter or a son. It was just a b.a.s.t.a.r.d that belonged to you and another man. Do you really want me to recognize this b.a.s.t.a.r.d as my child?” Feng Yuran’s charming smile was a little ambiguous. His eyes were cold as if they were really made of icy substance.
How could it be? How could he know about that? A chill rose from the heart of Concubine Xiang. She was scared.
“Your Highness, what… what did you say?” She looked at Feng Yuran dazedly. Then, she suddenly shook her head and cried even more tragically.
Feng Yuran smiled slightly and the smile on the corner of his mouth grew even more charming. However, he stared coldly at Concubine Xiang on the bed. There was not a trace of emotion in his eyes, as if there was thousand-year ice in them. “Concubine Xiang, don’t think that I don’t know about you and your master. I don’t know who made you pregnant, but if you want me to think of it as my child, either you or your master is too whimsical. You both thought that I was easily fooled, right?”
His voice was cold, and his words were like thunder, making Concubine Xiang scared out of her wits. She only felt that her body seemed to be frozen, and her lips trembled heavily that she couldn’t even say a word. She felt like she was in an ice cave.
How was that possible? How did Feng Yuran know about it? Didn’t he never care about matters of the back courtyard? How could he be so clear about it? No, no, Feng Yuran was definitely trying to scare her. He had said that intentionally. Thinking of that, she said both hopefully and timidly, “Your Highness, I only have a man, and it’s you. If the child in my belly wasn’t yours, was it someone else’s?”
“b.i.t.c.h! You’re as cheap as your master. You both carried other men’s b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, but you want your children to be a royal. Unfortunately, you can’t make it, and nor can your master.” Feng Yuran smiled slightly, but in Concubine Xiang’s eyes, it was extremely cold. She opened her eyes wide as if she had heard something deadly. She tried her best to get into the bed, murmuring, “Your Highness, Your Highness, I don’t know what you’re talking about. Please, please stop.”
“You framed Consort Xuan at her birthday banquet, trying to make others think that she couldn’t accept the baby, so you planned to kill the baby and pushed it to Consort Xuan. Unfortunately, Consort Xuan escaped. You wanted to take advantage of the b.a.s.t.a.r.d in your belly, and I also wanted to use it, so I watched you go on slowly. I can’t keep the b.a.s.t.a.r.d in your belly, so you should do me a favor. There are too many women in the backyard, and I have to get rid of them so that Consort Xuan can lead a happy life.”
Feng Yuran said casually, but clearly. His lips curved into a smile, as if he were talking about someone else. A hint of ridicule and disdain appeared in his beautiful eyes. Hearing his words, Concubine Xiang frightened and her face was as pale as snow. She had already been frightened out of her wits.
“Are you wondering why I know it’s a b.a.s.t.a.r.d? That man was brought here by your master, and I let him in on purpose. Besides, I wouldn’t touch such a b.i.t.c.h like you. Then how could you be pregnant with my child?” Feng Yuran sneered, stood up, waved his wide robe sleeves, and left the room without looking back.
“Somebody, bring the medicine in. Concubine Xiang is missing her child so much that she gets ill.”
Before Concubine Xiang could react, two older maidservants came in, and one of them carried a bowl of medicine. Before she handed it to Concubine Xiang, Concubine Xiang smelled sour smell. This was not the medicine to save people but medicine that could kill people!
“Your Highness…” Concubine Xiang screamed and tried to rush down from the bed to escape.
However, her cheeks had already been pinched by an older maidservant, and the latter forcibly poured the medicine into her mouth…
