Chapter 752: Unreasonable and Ruthless
The empress dowager said compa.s.sionately, “What’s wrong, crying to this extent. Tell me, who dares bully the young lady of the Murong family?”
Murong Qingqing sobbed and told her what happened today.
“I was going to give it to him out of kindness, but he humiliated me…”
Feng Qingtian finally understood what was going on.
Who knew what possessed Lu Fenying to go shopping, but an umbrella caught his eye. Murong Qingqing wanted to give it to him, but he refused, and instead fought over it with her.
He dropped thirty thousand gold taels to buy the store.
Murong Qingqing losing face meant the Murong family lost face. No wonder Lady Murong was angry.
She had always been protective.
Feng Qingtian didn’t understand. Why was Lu Fenying fighting with a woman over an umbrella?
Could it be that he hadn’t recovered fully from being addled with fury two days ago?
The empress dowager didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She scolded helplessly, “That crown prince of Heavenly Wind Empire is truly strange. Why is he competing with a girl over an umbrella? He’s not a man at all.”
Feng Qingtian echoed, “He’s that sort of brazen man. He even dared kill his mother.”
Naturally, Feng Qingtian said the words not for the empress dowager, but for Murong Qingqing.
She even dared complain to the empress dowager about this matter.
It didn’t take a genius to know that Murong Qingqing must’ve taken a fancy to Lu Fenying and wanted to give him the umbrella.
Who was Lu Fenying? Why would he want her things? He thus ruthlessly humiliated her.
Murong Qingqing hadn’t been able to take it, and had gone home and exaggerated the truth. Lady Murong, who was protective of her children, thus came to the royal palace to seek justice.
The empress dowager was stunned. “Even his mother?”
The empress dowager no longer bothered with court affairs, so she didn’t know much about the crown prince of Heavenly Wind Empire.
Lady Murong’s expression turned worse. Of course she knew what the crown prince of Heavenly Wind Empire was like, which was why she had come to the royal palace. Otherwise, she would’ve gone straight to find him with her own people.
“No matter how fierce he is, this is Southern Glory Empire. Is he allowed to bully us here?” Lady Murong said angrily.
Her granddaughter had given him the umbrella out of the kindness of her heart, but he didn’t want it and insisted on fighting her for it…
The empress dowager felt a headache coming on. “Sister, what do you plan to do?”
Lady Murong sighed. “It’s not that I want to cause trouble, but he was too much. Qingqing touched his sleeve, and he cut it off in public. How will she be able to marry in the future?”
Who would dare marry a woman despised like that?
The empress dowager’s head hurt even more. “How unreasonable and ruthless.”
Feng Qingtian observed everything without comment. Although Lu Fenying was staying at his residence, he would never get involved.
Lu Fenying had brought this on himself, he should fix it himself.
When the empress dowager said those words, she forgot that the person next to her was even more unreasonable and ruthless; any woman who dared touch his sleeve would already be dead.
Only after she said the words did the empress dowager remember Feng Qingtian sitting next to her. She comforted him. “Prince Zi, you’re different; yours is an illness.”
Feng Qingtian felt that these words of comfort weren’t comforting at all.
“Grandmother, I’m not ill. I just don’t like any woman other than Lulu. I think the crown prince of Heavenly Wind Empire didn’t place Murong Qingqing in his eyes. Naturally, he would ignore whoever he doesn’t like.”
Lady Murong stood up. “Prince Zi, why are you defending an outsider?”
Feng Qingtian looked at her. “How do you want me to defend my people?”
“He ruined Qingqing’s reputation. He has to marry her.”
