Chapter 70

Hurrah——

A bitter cold wind came whistling, flapping and crackling the branches.

The cold wind penetrated into the collar, and the British Duchess shivered suddenly, her dazed eyes became focused again, and her mind returned to her original position.

The whole person woke up, and it was only at this moment that she realized that she had said everything she shouldn't have said.

Her heart was pounding uncontrollably, and she was flustered. She didn't understand what happened to her just now, why did she tell everything by accident!

Is she possessed by a ghost? !

Pounding!

The British Duchess was in a state of anxiety, and looked around anxiously, always feeling that the wind was blowing.

"Mingfeng..." She wanted to explain something remedial, but she felt a burning sensation from her right sleeve, as if a cluster of flames were burning, burning and painful.

The British princess let out a soft breath, and quickly took out the phoenix pattern jade pendant from her sleeve pocket, only to find that the suet white jade pendant had been broken into seven or eight pieces, and the pieces of the jade pendant were hot, almost burning her.

how so? ! The British princess was startled, and her heart was full of surprises. She felt as if countless ants were burrowing in her heart, and she didn't notice Fang Mingfeng's ugly face at all.

Fang Mingfeng's eyes were red, his fists were clenched tighter and tighter, and his joints were creaking.

King Kang, it's King Kang Chuyou again!

What can he not compare to Kang Wang? !

In the next moment, I couldn't help but think of those words that Gu Yanfei said back then:

"Fang Mingfeng, in terms of status, you can't compete with King Kang."

"In terms of appearance... what are you going to use to compete with King Kang?"

That contemptuous voice pierced Fang Mingfeng's heart like a nail, making him feel so much pain.

It was like being pushed into a bottomless abyss from behind, Fang Mingfeng felt the darkness and coldness around him completely engulfed him, making him unable to see any hope anymore.

His throat was filled with a fishy sweet smell.

A mouthful of blood spat out from his throat, and his thin lips were stained red with blood.

"Mingfeng!" The British princess yelled out in shock, feeling extremely distressed, "Quick... hurry and call the doctor."

She was worried about her son and forgot the broken jade pendant in her hand. The pieces of the jade pendant fell out of her hand and fell to the ground, but no one paid attention to it.

The servants around were in a mess.

Fang Mingfeng rushed out as if he hadn't heard of it, and the British lady behind him shouted tremblingly: "Mingfeng, where are you going!"

He is going to settle accounts with King Kang! Fang Mingfeng stumbled towards the outside of the mansion. The concierge and other servants were at a loss, hesitating, not knowing whether to stop him, until a loud and majestic male voice came from the northwest:

"Come on, let me take the prince!"

A figure in a sapphire blue brocade robe strode towards this side with strides. The man was not doubtful, his appearance was rough, he had a beard, and he was strong and burly.

There was a servant behind the man, the servant was out of breath, just now when he saw that the prince had injured the guard and ran out, he hurried to report to the Duke, luckily there was still time.

"Yes, my lord!" The guards hurriedly cupped their fists at the man in the brocade robe and received orders.

The guards didn't hesitate anymore, they boldly stepped forward to stop Fang Mingfeng, they didn't hold back at all, they firmly clamped his arms.

"Let go of me! I'm going to find Chu You!" Fang Mingfeng's heart was occupied by anger and jealousy, he roared hysterically and struggled, the left half of his face covered with thin scars was extremely hideous.

The British Duke frowned, waved his hand, and the guards understood immediately, and forcefully dragged Fang Mingfeng down.

"..." The British lady looked at her son's back, hesitated to speak, and finally did not dare to intercede for her son.

The British Duke's heavy gaze shifted to the British Princess, and he noticed a few fragments of jade pendants scattered around her skirt, so he took another look.

"My lord..." Mrs. Ying hurriedly moved a step, her long skirt blocked those broken jade pendants.

The British Duke didn't want to listen to her nonsense at all, so he interrupted her directly: "How is it?"

The British Duchess gritted her teeth nervously, a cold sweat broke out on her back, and her chest was filled with irritability, anger, and depression.

She pretended to be calm and said in a low voice: "You asked me to go to the Gu family, I went, and King Kang came too... as you wished."

She gritted her teeth while speaking the last five words, glaring at the British Duke angrily, her body trembling slightly with anger.

In the past few days, not only Fang Mingfeng lived in depression, but also the British princess, as if the world suddenly turned upside down overnight, and the person next to her pillow became a stranger who made her feel terrible.

She really didn't understand why he wanted her to go to Gu's family to make people feel humiliated for nothing!

Fortunately, she didn't get nothing this time, at least she got the jade pendant back...

A strange light flashed across the eyes of the British princess, her plump chest heaved violently, she looked up into the eyes of the British princess, and said: "Fang Huairui, our son is going to become the laughing stock of the whole capital, you can Are you happy, satisfied?"

Fang Huairui's eyes stabbed at the British Duke and Duchess like a knife, and the cold air overflowed. The eyes of the two collided fiercely in mid-air, engaging in a silent duel.

Extremely complicated emotions flashed across Fang Huairui's eyes turbulently, leaving deep disappointment in the end.

He shook his sleeves heavily, walked towards the study outside, and only said: "Shi Yu, don't go out if you have nothing to do."

This sentence is tantamount to a ban on the British princess.

"..." Shi Yu trembled like chaff, ashamed and annoyed.

She wanted to catch up, but years of upbringing made her unable to let go of her pride as a daughter of an aristocratic family, so she didn't move after all.

Her face was flushed red, and she felt that the servants around her seemed to be looking at her with thorns.

"boom!"

The gate of the British Government House was tightly closed, shutting the hustle and bustle of the house so that outsiders could not pry into it, but it couldn't stop the gossip of outsiders.

Today, the British lady-in-law went very publically. Almost half of the people in the capital knew that the Fang family went to the Gu family to place a small order. Now that the British lady-in-law came back disappointed with the small ceremony, people had to guess whether the Gu family refused. This marriage.

Logically speaking, if the marriage can reach the stage of Xiaoding, it must be that the two families have been discussing the marriage for a long time, and it cannot be that the British government came to propose marriage inexplicably.

Especially Kang Wang's sudden intrusion made this marriage even more topical.

In the next few days, people in Beijing couldn't help but speculate, and all kinds of gossip spread, and it became more and more lively. Some people with good intentions went to the British government to test their words. Unfortunately, the British government closed its doors to thank the guests.

Many people hold the mentality of watching a good show, looking forward to whether there will be some bloody drama between Kang Wang and the British government.

As the center of public opinion, Huai Rui, the British official, finally left the palace and entered the palace after closing his doors for three days.

He did not go to court, but was led all the way to Dongnuan Pavilion by the servants.

"Your Highness, the matter has been settled."

Fang Huairui lowered his eyebrows and bowed solemnly to the person behind the case.

An incense burner was lit in the corner, and the incense was curling up, and the air was filled with a mellow sandalwood fragrance.

After the trial, Chu Yi, dressed in a bright red brocade robe, sat leisurely.
