“Malicious bitch, go die!” Fifth fuma suddenly lost all rationality and charged towards Princess Min Xiang.
Followed by his parents’ heartbreaking screams of desperation, yet were firmly pressed down, unable to move; followed by his two children’s painful cries that changed in sound from the overflowing blood, yet could only helplessly roll around on the ground; followed by the weakening cries for help from the woman that has followed him for many years and that he was rather fond of, and after learning what happened to her sons, became nearly deranged. Fifth fuma’s two eyes dyed red, full of malevolence, like a vengeful spirit coming to take a life, deathly clutching Princess Min Xiang’s neck.
This unforeseen change came truly too suddenly, completely catching everyone off guard. The people serving by Princess Min Xiang’s side all didn’t react in time. When they returned to their senses, they immediately went forward to pull apart, both clawing and scratching, even condescendingly cursing in all kinds of ways, such as injuring a princess, his entire family will be seized and so on, but fifth fuma was completely unmoved. That strength was also unprecedentedly strong, greatly having the intention to strangle Princess Min Xiang to death. Princess Min Xiang clawed at his hand, wanting to have it pried open, but even if having him scratched full of blood, it was still no use. Her throat vibrated with a soft laughter, her eyes penetrated with disbelief. She probably never thought that this man would dare rebel against her, even wanting to kill her. But the feeling of gradually suffocating loudly declared that everything was all real. Looking to him at such a close distance, she suddenly produced an enormous fear inside and began to struggle with all her might.
Fifth fuma gnashed his teeth in anger, “You malicious bitch, go die, die, die……….”
In that moment, unknown as to what thought was produced, he suddenly leaned over, ruthlessly biting down on Princess Min Xiang’s ear.
Even if getting choked, Princess Min Xiang this while still miserably screamed out.
The people serving Princess Min Xiang felt their livers splitting from the fright, their sharp nails clawing towards his eyes and ears, using all their strength to pull his hair. In that short amount of time, fifth fuma’s face was already ruined. There were streak after streak of blood trails, and his right eye was also heavily injured, never mind bleeding endlessly, his eyeball seemingly was all about to fall out. They hoped that he can, because of the pain, loosen his grip, but unfortunately, fifth fuma not only didn’t let go, but even because of the pain, erupt with unprecedented power. In his mouth from beginning to end were just two words, go die, go die……………
“Are you all dead? Quickly have this daring bastard beaten aside at once!” The mama by Princess Min Xiang’s side angrily roared at the dumbstruck guards.
Such an intense scene really frightened quite a few people, including fifth fuma’s parents, all blankly frozen in place. And the guards seemingly just returned to their sense, hurriedly going forward, the blade in hand directly smashing towards the back of his head, the force not the least bit light. To put it unpleasantly, fifth fuma was already a dead person. For the sake of saving the princess, even if killing him now, it won’t be too much either. But, in only a few strikes, fifth fuma just forcibly tore off Princess Min Xiang’s ear. This time, practically everyone all lost their soul…………
But Princess Min Xiang already didn’t have the energy to make a sound…………..
However, thankfully there were still those that didn’t completely lose their soul. That head guard drew his sword, directly chopping off fifth fuma’s arm. Fifth fuma staggered two steps backwards, falling onto the ground, appearing very awful, yet he was like as if unable to feel pain, madly laughing, yet his laughter sounded very mournful and strange, making one’s hair stand on its end.
However, the people of the princess manor all didn’t have the mind to pay him any attention, hurriedly checking Princess Min Xiang’s condition. The fortunate thing among the misfortune was that there was still one breath. But, seeing Princess Min Xiang missing an ear, her neck, cheeks, and clothes stained with blood everywhere, this time, afraid they were done for. To be able to preserve their little life perhaps was the best outcome.
“Manor doctor, where’s the manor doctor———”
Before the manor doctor could arrive, another group of people hastily rushed over first. The amount of people was even quite spectacular, yet seeing the scene before their eyes, each and every one all froze inside——–it’s over!
Of the people that came from Yucui Palace, aside from an old palace maid, there was also the chief eunuch of Yucui Palace. Noble Consort Su had let them come together, just fearing that Princess Min Xiang would act stubborn. The two of them had also brought along some people, more than enough to subdue Princess Min Xiang under Noble Consort Su’s orders. However, the scene right now, how was it not telling them a fact, that even if hastily rushing over, it was still too late. What should and shouldn’t have happened have already all happened, and moreover, it was quite disastrous.
The two in the lead for Yucui Palace both weren’t stupid. Seeing the current situation, they could roughly guess how things developed. The fuma injuring the princess definitely was an unpardonable crime, but what Princess Min Xiang has done was also a little too malicious. Even if the fuma was punished in the end, her reputation was also thoroughly ruined. And without a doubt, Noble Consort Su will also be implicated, because Princess Min Xiang was her daughter. To not educate the daughter was the mother’s fault. For the daughter to be this malicious, mutilating innocent children, people will naturally suspect Noble Consort Su’s character. Lately, her Highness has already somewhat lost his Majesty’s favor. What Princess Min Xiang did, how was it just pouring oil over fire that simple?
Originally, on this matter, Princess Min Xiang occupied an absolute advantage. As long as she slightly endures a little, not needing to say anything or do anything, just needing to pitifully cry at appropriate times, then his Majesty will definitely back her, giving the fuma a severe punishment. Afterwards, however she wants to grasp the fuma all would depend on her mood. And as the father, his Majesty will also try to console her.

A good hand just got ruined like this by her!
The two in the lead for Yucui Palace mutually looked to one another, then looked to the large group of fifth fuma’s clansmen behind them. This matter, to want to seal off was already impossible, but they still needed to prevent the situation from expanding more. It wasn’t the time to criticize who, or look into the matter. Right now, the most important thing was to quickly save the person.
At this time, aside from the two children that were unable to be controlled, everyone else all remained silent. The people that still had their rationality all calculated from their own position, how to have themselves or their own people pulled out from this matter or reduce the blame. Princess Min Xiang as well as the people behind her wanted to preserve her reputation, and fifth fuma as well as the people behind him wanted to preserve their life and their family clan.
This side had already sent someone back to the palace to report the seriousness of the matter to Noble Consort Su, and fifth fuma’s family clan also wasn’t idle either. They originally should’ve shared a common interest with Rui Qinwang, but not everyone was willing to lean towards Rui Qinwang. Right now, to want to preserve themselves, they had no choice but to separately look for someone else. In reality, holding onto such a big handle on Noble Consort Su, to want to look for someone to help definitely wasn’t anything difficult.
When Jing Wan received news on the specifics of the situation, she was in the middle of playing with the two white tiger cubs she’d obtained from the emperor’s birthday banquet. The two little guys had been raised quite spiritedly. Moreover, they’d been specially trained, not only were they not scared of people, but according to Jing Wan’s saying, they would even voluntarily warm up to people and act cute. It was extremely adorable.
Jing Wan’s mood was originally very good, but after hearing what happened, her mood practically sunk to the bottom of the ravine. She retracted her hand that was caressing the tiger’s ear, “Take them down, and carefully look after, don’t let them fall ill.”
Jing Wan got up and quietly went to wash her hands. Lifting up a cup of warm tea, she stared off into an unknown place, somewhat lost in thought.
The people by her side all knew that their wangfei was in a bad mood right now, yet they were somewhat at a loss for what to do, not knowing how to persuade.
Li Hong Yuan lifted the curtain and entered. It was obvious, he who was in the study earlier, this while, had already received news.
Li Hong Yuan walked to Jing Wan’s side and sat down, “What’s wrong, this is being angry at this husband?”
Jing Wan looked to him in surprise, “Ah Yuan, where do these words come from?”
“After all, if not for this husband letting someone leak out this matter, it probably wouldn’t have been this terrible, no?”
Towards Li Hong Yuan’s inherent nature, Jing Wan even if not a hundred percent clear, it was still seventy to eighty percent. If he cared, then that would actually be strange. To be this dishonest with his feelings, it was also for her sake. However, towards his completely insincere performance, in Jing Wan’s eyes, this bastard was practically just mocking her for being too benevolent. “Ah Yuan, there’s no need to say this. In the current state of affairs, where it’s survival of the fittest, only a fool would not take advantage of a favorable situation. Moreover, the things fifth fuma has done, he may not necessarily be able to continue hiding forever. In reality, just based on his relationship with Princess Min Xiang, getting exposed, it is only inevitable. Just, Princess Min Xiang’s methods were truly too malicious, exceeding one’s expectation. She clearly occupied all the advantages. I originally thought that even if her temper wasn’t good, she still wouldn’t go overboard, but who knew……………..”
Jing Wan also wasn’t a saint. She won’t because of a hard to accept matter having some connections to herself, just have all the blame pushed onto herself.
In reality, for Princess Min Xiang to do such a thing, it was actually within Li Hong Yuan’s expectations, but so what? If she doesn’t go this far, then it won’t reach the ideal effect. “Things have already come to this and can’t be reversed. It was nothing more than secretly pushing along the waves, having the matter made even bigger. Besides, didn’t Min Xiang already receive retribution?”

It’s always a bad thing to underestimate the darkest depths that evil people can sink to 👿
Thanks for the chapter
Wow, yeesh, now that my curiosity on what she’d done to deserve no pity whatsoever fulfilled, she really is malicious. Human lives for people like her were really nothing at all
I’m actually disappointed in our FL for not asking the ML to make sure that the two children weren’t harmed, I mean for someone who supposed to have a soft spot for kids she made no attempts to protect two completely innocent children. It’s interesting the people she chooses to help and what she chooses to turn a blind eye too.
She’s not very thoughtful about the people she doesn’t care about. Although kind but her kindness has a limit. That’s perhaps why she’s a better fit for the ML compared to a girl who’s really innocent and good hearted. In terms of mbti ML seems like an ENTJ and FL INFJ.
exactly. She’s kind but she’s not one of those masochistic ‘holy mother’ FLs who’ll constantly naively throw themselves into danger for every man and his dog. She knows what she can affect through LHY and that sometimes there is nothing that can be done.
Masochistic ‘holy mother’ FLs, my most feared archetype, their greatest strength: plot armor lmaoo
She isn’t one but it’s disappointing she didn’t think about the children though not surprising. ML is throughly blackening her.
…..Trust me, Ml isnt blackening her, she has always been this way. Jing Wan’s not a moral compass, never has been and never will be. She’s rational and cold towards things and people she doesn’t care about. Even before meeting ML, she’s known to hate concubines and shu children, even if they are innocent. It’s why she completely ignores the existence of her own younger shu siblings and is cold towards them. Not to mention Jing Wan’s also a yandere.
Speaking of moral standards, Jing Wan already has more moral standards than Wu Zhetian, so from a historical perspective Jing Wan is already morally better than the highly praised sole female emperor of China. But in turn, Jing Wan is also a good fit as an effective ruler.
Stupid Fuma. He let himself get bitten, let his parents tendons and tongue get cut and now his woman and children are hurt and he only act at this moment. 😑
He bit her ear, and the children were the ones who were injured. His parents are fine. But the rest of your comment I agree with.
well, the children were the key as they were the continuation of the family line. For a man like him, of that time, kids were important as the living legacy.
Is it right? no. it does conform to one of the prevailing attitudes though.
Yeesh. What a good thing, that I never pitied her to begin with.
