Chapter 99 -101: Let’s Get a Divorce
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Lianhua’s complexion turned ashen, and Feng Bailing hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
“Please invite the people in and first, let’s find out what exactly happened.”
Feng Zhanlian’s face turned pale with anger as he glared at Dongfang Lianhua.
That wretched son!
Seeing the dire situation, Feng Zhan Tian hurriedly dispatched a servant to call the people in.
The envoy from Fengtian narrated the whole series of events clearly, causing everyone at the Feng Mansion to be scared witless, shivering with cold sweat.
Feng Luochen incurred debts and after committing murder, fled to avoid the law.
“Either hand over the person or we will go to the Capital Governor to lodge a complaint. Princes who break the law should be treated the same as commoners, let alone your Princess’ Mansion.”
The people from the gambling house glared menacingly.
“Look at what you have… taught… this… brute…”
Feng Zhanlian’s forehead veins throbbed with rage as he stared at Dongfang Lianhua.
“Luochen hasn’t returned to the mansion. He is young, and although rash, he would never kill anyone. There must be some misunderstanding here. Please grant us some time to find him. As for the money he owes you, we will settle it once we find him.”
Feng Bailing consoled Dongfang Lianhua as he spoke.
“Do not… give… the money…”
Upon hearing this, Feng Zhanlian grew even more infuriated.

That wretched son had committed a murder, and it was unknown how much money it would take to cover this debacle. Let alone 150 gold taels, he would not pay a single penny.
“Zhanlian, Luochen is our son!”
Dongfang Lianhua said in disbelief, was he really going to stand by and watch his son die?
“I do not… have… such a… son.”
Feng Zhanlian had already concluded that Feng Luochen was a murderer and would only drag down his own and Feng Mansion’s reputation.
After all, he had two sons; if he disowned Feng Luochen, there was still Feng Zhao’an.
Zhao’an was talented and handsome and more like him. At a young age, he held an official post, and when he returned to the capital in autumn for his duty report, he would surely be entrusted with an important mission by Emperor Yongye.
The one who could bring honor to his ancestors, that was his true son!
Under the lamplight, Feng Zhanlian’s face was a mask of cold indifference.
Dongfang Lianhua looked at him, truly seeing the man before her for the first time.
Over the years, he had paid no attention to her and Ah Ling.
He wanted to sell off Xiao Li.
He didn’t even care about Feng Luochen’s life or death.
In his heart, there was only his own face, only himself.
“Feng Zhanlian, are you seriously unwilling to pay this money?”
Dongfang Lianhua asked in a heavy tone.
“Not paying… I… want to sever… the father-son relationship.”
Feng Zhanlian was determined to cut ties with the murderer Feng Luochen.
“Feng Zhanlian, let’s divorce.”
Dongfang Lianhua closed her eyes, unable to shed a single tear.
Inside the Flower Hall, everyone was taken aback.
Old Madam Feng and Feng Zhan Tian were dumbstruck; Aunt Xue and her daughter secretly rejoiced, and Feng Zhanlian was stunned.
“Princess, what are you saying in anger? We can slowly discuss the matter of Luochen. If you don’t agree with taking a concubine for the third mistress, we could talk about it later. You are a Princess, how could you say such a thing?”
Aunt Xue feigned concern. Dongfang Lianhua adored Feng Zhanlian so much, how could she possibly want a divorce? It was clearly an act of playing hard to get.
“The head of the household, don’t think just because you are a Princess you can bully Zhanlian. Is it not just about taking a concubine? You are a consumptive, unable to bear him more children, so why can’t he take a concubine?”
Old Madam Feng was so angry that she tapped her Jiutou Stick loudly.
“Why can’t my mother divorce him? She raised a pair of children for Feng Zhanlian, she adhered to the virtues of a wife, and she is also a current Princess. Tell me, which Princess’ Prince Consort can take a concubine, and then take one after another?”
Feng Bailing breathed a sigh of relief; this step, Dongfang Lianhua had finally taken.
“Taking a concubine… was… sanctioned by the… Emperor.”
Feng Zhanlian never imagined that the ostrich-like Dongfang Lianhua would dare to bring up those two words.
Did she really think she was still the same favored noble offspring by the late Emperor?
She must not know that the Beiqi Kingdom has already torn up the alliance with Great Chu, and Emperor Yongye has long been dissatisfied with her lineage from Beiqi. If it weren’t for the secret edict from the late Emperor, she and her twins would have been executed long ago.
“I will report the matter of the divorce to the Emperor tomorrow. Ah Ling, I’m tired, help me back.”
Dongfang Lianhua felt a tightness in her chest, and Feng Bailing helped her back to the eastern wing.
After returning to the eastern wing, Dongfang Lianhua sat on the couch and, after taking the medicine handed to her by Mrs. Su, bitterly smiled and said,
“Ah Ling, accompany me to the palace tomorrow. For Luochen and you, I must also seek a divorce.”
“Mother, have you thought it through?”
Feng Bailing was heartbroken for Dongfang Lianhua.
“All these years, it was my mistake. The man I thought was good-hearted is actually cruel and merciless. I accepted that he tried to poison me in secret. But he won’t let you and Luochen go, and he even refuses to spare Xiao Li! That Lady Nan Feng is no good; what is she really here for after marrying into the Princess’ Mansion?”
Dongfang Lianhua was not foolish; if she could not confront them, she could always hide.
“Mother, it’s good that you understand. No matter what you do, both Luochen and I will support you. You should rest first, I will go see Xiao Li.”
Feng Bailing instructed Mrs. Su with a few words and then left the room.
Under the night sky, she surveyed her surroundings.
“Feng Zao.”
A shadow appeared accordingly.
“Princess Shengping.”
“Thank you for today.”
Feng Bailing was very grateful to Feng Zao; without him today, she might have been plotted against by Lady Nan Feng.
This also made her realize that she needed to improve her cultivation. Perhaps she should seek out Dugu Wu more often?
After all, with just a casual effort, Dugu Xiaojin was able to condense the Wuji Seal.
She took out a bottle of medicinal pills and gave them to Feng Zao.
Feng Zao hesitated for a moment but accepted it.
“Consider this as my token of gratitude. Although you are skilled, poison can still be troublesome. This is a Detoxification Pill I concocted; it can neutralize over a hundred types of poison. Hold it in your mouth and it will detoxify and protect you from poison.”
Feng Bailing, while concocting hair cream last night, had also casually made a few bottles of detoxification pills.
She was originally versed in both Eastern and Western medicine, and after getting to know Lu Yin and Gong Zhu, she became even more knowledgeable about Great Chu’s poison theories. After she took over Xinglin Spring, purchasing herbs became more convenient.
Combining her knowledge of medicine and poison, her Detoxification Pills were very effective against common poisons.
Feng Zao was a trusted aide of Dugu Wu, and Feng Bailing would have many uses for him in the future, so she needed to build a good relationship.
“Thank you, Princess.”
Feng Zao, having protected Feng Bailing for a few days, knew that the Princess’ medical skill was highly profound, even admired by the Divine Doctor Lu. Her Detoxification Pills were invaluable.
“There’s one more thing, please investigate the origins of those people at the gambling house tonight clearly for me.”
Feng Bailing had suspected, as soon as Lady Nan Feng arrived, the gamblers followed right afterward, and she had just learned about Feng Luochen’s escape.
“I am aware of this matter,” said Feng Zao without any concealment and informed her of Feng Luochen’s escape.
This was something the Prince intended to notify the Princess of, but the situation changed too quickly, and Feng Zao had not yet found the opportunity to inform Feng Bailing.
Feng Bailing had also wanted to find the right time to let Dongfang Lianhua and Feng Zhanlian divorce, but this matter was quite complicated, especially with Emperor Yongye’s involvement. She hadn’t expected Dugu Wu to make the first move.
“The Prince does not want the Princess to have any more connections with the Feng Mansion.”
If it wasn’t for the fact that Feng Zhanlian was Emperor Yongye’s spy and could not be removed directly, Dugu Wu would have already made his move.
Feng Zao knew his master well; just based on the fact that Feng Zhanlian was willing to sell Feng Xiaoli, in the eyes of his master, Feng Zhanlian was already a dead man.
“Why would Dugu Wu know about Luochen?”
Feng Bailing sensed something was amiss.
“The Princess’ affairs are of great concern to the Prince. He is the Princess’ brother, and also the Prince’s future brother.”
Feng Zao said thoughtfully, pondering that the Prince himself hadn’t realized just how much attention he had been paying lately to the affairs of Princess Shengping and her daughter.
Nowadays, the Prince required himself to report daily on the goings-on in the Princess’ Mansion, which were simply trivial matters such as how many bowls Feng Xiaoli ate or what new medicine Princess Shengping concocted, but it seemed the Prince was quite happy to hear about them.
