The empress trembled as she gripped the bed covers tightly.
‘If Yu’er is dead… Isn’t it pointless to bring back his corpse?’
All she wanted to see was the living, breathing Yu’er!
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”
Just at this moment, a joyful voice came from outside the palace.
Qi Fang turned around and saw a eunuch hurriedly running over and stumbling in his heels.
But he could not get up in time, so he crawled in front of Qi Fang.
“Your Majesty, the little prince is back. He’s back!”
‘What?’
The empress quickly raised her head as she tumbled off the bed, even her voice was trembling. “What did you just say?”
‘Is Yu’er back?’=
‘He’s back!’
The empress covered her mouth with her hand as tears flowed from between her fingers.
The news was so sudden, so surprising that she could not believe it…
“Yes, the little prince is back. The court servants have taken him to Zhengde Hall. He’s really back.”
This time, without the need for the eunuch to reply again, the empress had rushed out and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
From afar, the empress could hear the arrogant and overbearing shouting that made her feel calm again.
“Get out of here! All of you, get out of my way… That bastard Feng Lianqing, tell him to get out of here. I’m going to kill him!”
***
Inside Zhengde Hall.
Qi Yu was fat, but he was not slow. He swept everything on the table onto the floor and angrily pointed at the servants.
“Where’s Feng Lianqing? Why did he throw me back to the palace? That bastard, sooner or later, I’m going to kill him!”
Hmph!
‘It’s that bastard’s fault!’
He was surrounded by the spirit beasts again when they were about to leave the spirit beast mountain!
If it were not for Feng Lianqing, perhaps his goddess sister would have taken him along, and he would not have been nearly dragged away again…
He had said long ago that Feng Lianqing could not take care of a child, but the goddess sister did not believe him! If he had not pissed on that germaphobic spirit beast, he would have been eaten again!
That bastard had gone overboard!
What was more, Feng Lianqing had run away after he threw him back to the palace!
“Yu’er!”
A hoarse voice called out.
When Qi Yu turned around, someone had already rushed over and pulled him hard into her arms.
The empress trembled a bit, afraid that if she let go, the boy would run away again.
“Yu’er, my Yu’er.”
After a few moments, the empress released her embrace and caressed the little fatty’s face, her gaze gentle. “I’ve let you suffer.”
The little prince was dumbfounded. He suddenly thought of the grievances he had suffered these past few days and cried out pitifully.
This cry caused the empress to become more distressed. She once again pulled the little prince into her arms and hugged him tightly.
“Yu’er, my sweetheart. I will never let this happen again. The people who bullied you and hurt you must pay the price for this!”
Ruthlessness flashed in the empress’s eyes, and she gritted her teeth.
Qi Yu blinked. ‘What does Mother mean by this, wanting to avenge me?
‘To kill that bastard Feng Lianqing?’
The more Qi Yu thought about it, the happier he was. After all, Feng Lianqing was Tian Ya’s disciple, so it was not that easy to kill him. But if his mother stood firmly on his side…
