Chapter 509: Come Even If It Meant a Dog’s Broken Leg
Feng Qingbai would definitely not let her go. How exactly would he deal with her?
She had to think about it, must think about it.
After having dinner that night, Liu Yusheng went back to the room early to rest.
After sailing in the canal for ten days in a row, plus the fright she suffered in Xuzhou before, returning to the capital, returning to her own territory, and relaxing made her feel the exhaustion.
She needed a good night’s sleep before she could regain her energy.
After turning off the lamps, she climbed into the bed, and right after she pulled the quilt to cover herself, a gust of air rushed towards her.
A warm body pressed against her and hugged her whole.
”Feng Qingbai, can you not always come here when the lights are out,” Liu Yusheng said helplessly, “Is it fun to act the thief every night instead of being an honest King?”
”Then I’ll come before you turn off the lights.” The man nibbled at her earlobe and smiled tenderly.
Liu Yusheng clenched her teeth and bit him. “You wish. If you come before the lights are out, my father will break your dog legs the moment he finds out.”
”Shengsheng, you are here. I’ll come even if it means a dog’s broken leg.”
Unable to control the corners of her mouth rising, Liu Yusheng rolled over and pressed against the man. “You’re in such a good mood, huh? What did you do? Let me hear it.”
She could feel the mellowness in his tone. He couldn’t hide in front of her.
”It’s nothing. I just returned the favor and gave Consort Liu a generous gift.” He played down his plan, but his tone rose, revealing irony.
His behavior made Liu Yusheng even more curious.
”What kind of gift, tell me?”
”You’ll find out tomorrow.”
”Can’t you tell me now?”
”There are more important things for us to do now.” The man’s tone deepened a couple of notches, and, with a single move, pressed the woman back under him.
”Feng Qingbai, can’t you be serious?” Liu Yusheng’s voice trembled.
Even though the lamps had already been turned off, in the darkness, she could still see the man’s surprisingly bright eyes, which shone with dim glint.
The dim glint made her hair stand on end, and it raised the alarm all over her body. She wanted to escape, but she couldn’t.
In the middle of the night, a shrill scream suddenly erupted from the Qingning Palace.
The whole palace was quickly lit with candles, and the lamps shone bright.
Consort Liu shrank on the bed and shivered, her wide eyes filled with fear.
In front of her bed, there were two heads hanging, bloody, like ghosts who came to ask for her life.
And these two people were the eunuchs who had been serving by her side.
Feng Qingbai did it. He did it, it must be!
He was telling her in this manner that he could kill her anytime he wanted!
The palace was strictly guarded, and the protection was airtight, but in Feng Qingbai’s eyes, it was nothing at all.
In the past, she always sent assassins to kill Feng Qingbai. Now, Feng Qingbai was using the same method to return the favor to her.
Fear, anger, embarrassment, and several other emotions constantly alternated and rolled in Consort Liu’s eyes.
That bastard, why was his life so long? Why didn’t he die early? Why does he never die!
Outside the room, the eunuchs and maids soon came, and they were stunned when they saw the scene in front of them.
Many of the timid palace maids also screamed, until in the end, everyone knelt down and clamored for forgiveness.
”Take them, take them! Take them, throw them and burn them! Take them away!” Consort Liu screamed.
The granny, who has been serving her, has already rushed forward and hurriedly reprimanded everyone, “What are you still doing? Make haste and throw these two things away. Don’t dirty the Consort’s eyes! All of you are lacking eyesight!”
The servants kneeling on the ground quickly got up, took down the two heads in front of the hanging in front of the bed, and ran out quickly, looking for a place to deal with them.
The palace was filled with filth and corruption. They have seen countless dead men and weren’t afraid of them.
What they feared was the means that achieved such a thing.
The security of the palace was so tight that you could say no water leaked.
No matter how high the martial arts of a person was, there was no way he could break in effortlessly.
But this time, they not only came, but also quietly broke into the Qingning Palace and hung two human heads in front of the Concubine Dowager’s bed.
From beginning to end, no one heard the slightest movement.
The mere thought of such a method creeped them out.
Not to mention the terrified Consort Liu, even the servants of Qingning Palace did not dare to close their eyes again.
Having worked in Qingning Palace, the servants there were familiar with each other.
The people who had been lying beside them a moment ago was silently killed, rendering them at a loss about what to do.
The fear of death spread to everyone else. Who knew if the one who’d die in their sleep next would be them?
Even the Imperial Guard were horrified.
Someone successfully snuck into the palace and assassinated people, which showed the loopholes in their security. These were the responsibility of the Imperial Guards, and they couldn’t shirk the responsibility.
After receiving a harsh reprimand from Consort Liu, the commander of the Imperial Guards deployed and strengthened the defense in the palace anew.
In particular, he focused on guarding the vicinity of the Qingning Palace to make up for his mistakes.
However, even so, the Qingming Palace still failed to find peace.
The next night, another accident occured in the Qingning Palace.
Another head was hung in front of Consort Liu’s bed.
It was none other than the granny who served her for decades.
It was only yesterday when the granny reprimanded the servants in front of her!
Today, she has got only a human head left!
There was no blood on that familiar face, but she just stared straight ahead.
It was obviously just a head, but it looked like it was alive, and the horror in her eyes was still frozen in there.
The scene in front of Consort Liu seemed to herald her own fate the next day, driving her on the brink of madness.
Feng Qingbai, ah, Feng Qingbai!
If that scare yesterday, she could still get away with thinking it was Feng Qingbai giving her a warning in a fit of anger, then now she understood.
That was not a warning, but the beginning of his declaration of war.
First, the eunuchs who often served her, and then her confidant, the granny; who was next?
After Feng Qingbai killed all the people around her who were familiar with her, Consort Liu dared to ascertain that the last one was definitely herself.
By killing her, Feng Qingbai’s vengeance would come to an end!
That beast! Too cruel, too poisonous!
He didn’t kill her directly, but used this method to torment her each and every day with this kind of fear, leaving her no peace and always on tenterhooks.
This is more tormenting than killing her with a stab!
In Xinliu Manor((Formerly the New Liu Manor)), Liu Yusheng had already heard all about what happened in the palace.
Upon learning that Feng Qingbai actually used such a method to deal with Consort Liu, she fell silent for a while.
No wonder Qian Wanjin and Xue Qinglian’s unscrupulous temperament were restrained in front of Feng Qingbai.
It turned out to be because of this.
