Su Yingxueâs eyes curved slightly. âI saw Miss Yun Danâs medical skills yesterday. In comparison, the princess is naturally better.â
âYou!â Yun Danâs eyes were filled with caution.
Su Yingxue was young, but she had keen eyes and was very meticulous. She could even observe such small details.
Feng Qing hadnât taken revenge for her broken hand, so she looked at Su Yingxue coldly. âYouâre here to visit the princess. Why do you have to talk so much? What does the princessâs medical skills have to do with you?â
âMiss Feng Qing, Miss Su is a female envoy. Please speak politely,â Aunt Jing Fang couldnât help but say.
âSo what if sheâs a female envoy? Whatâs the difference between you and a servant? When you see our princess, shouldnât you be respectful?â Feng Qing was arrogant.
She was used to being arrogant in Qi State and did not care if she was in another country.
âI do have to be respectful to the princess because she is an envoy, but to a servant girl who speaks arrogantly, there is no need.â Su Yingxue had a smile on her face, but her eyes were filled with coldness.
âWhat do you want?â Feng Qing had just asked when she was surrounded by palace guards.
âPrincess, in the Great Cheng Dynasty, servants who offend their superiors will be punished. Itâs the same for the princessâs maidservants,â Su Yingxue said loudly to the tightly shut door.
There was no sound coming from inside, so Su Yingxue ordered palace guards to press Feng Qing on the stool and prepare to hit her.
Yun Dan frowned. âMiss Su, Feng Qing is the princessâs person. Itâs not up to you to punish her.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âShe is the princessâs woman, but if she insults me, then she is insulting the female envoy who receives the envoy and also insulting the Great Cheng Dynasty. Just based on this point, the Great Cheng Dynasty will have to teach her what is national prestige.â
Su Yingxue waved her hand and ordered her men to take action.
âBang!â
The foot-thick board hit Feng Qingâs body.
Feng Qing stared at her in disbelief. âYou⦠How dare you hit me!â
She had never been beaten up in Qi State!
Su Yingxueâs expression did not change. âContinue.â
The sound of the board hitting was incessant, and Feng Qing continued to curse.
Aunt Jing Fang was a little worried. âMiss Su, itâs fine to hit her a few times to teach her a lesson. After all, sheâs the Eldest Princessâs person. If you offend Eldest Princess and she reports it to the emperor, Iâm afraid it wonât be easy to explain.â
âShe is in the wrong. If she were to report this to the emperor, would the emperor allow others to insult the Great Cheng Dynasty?â Su Yingxueâs voice was sonorous and powerful. She said it for Aunt Jing Fang to hear and also for the people in the Perching Phoenix Palace to hear.
But unfortunately, she hit Feng Qing 30 times, but there was no sound from inside.
Su Yingxue saw Feng Qing lying in a pool of blood and said indifferently. âIt seems that the princess is resting. I canât visit the princess today. When the princess wants to see me, I will come to visit the princess again.â
After saying that, she led Aunt Jing Fang away.
Yun Dan supported Feng Qing, who suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. âSu Yingxue⦠Just you wait!â
Yun Dan helped her into the Perching Phoenix Palace. Han Yuwen had been listening to the commotion outside but did not make a sound.
She saw Feng Qing being helped in, covered in blood. She was disgusted. âYouâve followed me for so long, but youâre so useless?â
âPrincess, that Su Yingxue is relying on the fact that this is a palace and there are many people here. Even if Feng Qing wants to resist, Iâm afraid she wonât be a match for her.â Yun Dan explained to her.
Feng Qingâs eyes were filled with hatred. âPrincess, 1 donât dare to resist. After all, this is the palace. Iâll embarrass you.â
âYou know that you will embarrass me, but you still want to go head-on with Su Yingxue? You know that you canât win against her..â
