The prince is more stable

Chapter 83 Revenge
Many deadly feuds often arise from information gaps between the two sides.

Last October, after the death of the Empress Dowager, Cao Ning was transferred to Yaohua Palace, a female prison. As a female official, Cao Ning was basically isolated from the world and rarely went out.

Thus, an information gap is formed.

Cao Ning knew Feng's past identity, but she had no idea about Zhao Xiaoqian's current reputation.

Or rather, even if she knew, she wouldn't care because she has someone to rely on.

Her father was the Right Censor, a minister who dared to criticize even the current emperor, while the King of Chu and his son were just clan members. Apart from their noble status, clan members had no power at all. What was there for Cao Ning to fear?

The divorce between the King of Chu and Feng Shi caused a sensation in the city. Feng Shi was a person that the Empress Dowager hated deeply, and the relationship between the King of Chu and her had long been severed.

So in Cao Ning's impression, Feng is now a middle-aged prisoner who has no one to rely on and is bullied by others. If nothing unexpected happens, she will never be able to leave Yaohua Palace in her life.

In this case, Cao Ning has to do his best to control her.

But Cao Ning happened to overlook the fact that Feng had a biological son. This son was certainly also a relative, but this relative was very special.

This biological son is now doing very well in Bianjing City. If her father, who is the Right Censor, gives her even a word of warning, Cao Ning will kneel down respectfully to Feng.

However, at this moment, it was too late.

That’s right, Cao Ning did cause a big disaster.

In theory, Cao Ning did not beat or scold Feng, but only assigned her some heavy work and starved her for a few meals, but cold violence is also a form of bullying.

Di Ying, whose face was covered with bruises, smiled brightly, but her smile was filled with a deep chill.

She had foreseen Cao Ning's fate.

Although she had little contact with Zhao Xiaoqian, Di Ying knew him to some extent.

When I first met him, half of the playboys in Bianjing City lined up to be blackmailed by him. He could do things so brutally without any reason. It was obvious that he was not a very reasonable person.

His mother was bullied today, and this guy must have exploded on the spot.

Di Ying's expression was too calm, with a hint of gloating in her calmness. Cao Ning, who was originally calling for help, suddenly stopped shouting, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

This expression is so abnormal.

Moreover, Cao Ning suddenly remembered that from the time they met until now, she had beaten him and scolded him, but she still seemed to be unaware of Di Ying's origins.

"You, who are you?" Cao Ning asked with a gloomy face.

Di Ying smiled, and the smile pulled the bruises at the corners of her mouth. She gasped in pain, but she continued to sneer with perseverance.

"Cao Ning, you're responsible for your own actions. It doesn't matter who I am, but you should prepare for disaster. Next time before you bully others, it's best to find out more about their background."

Cao Ning immediately turned and looked at Feng.

Feng's expression was calm and she said nothing. When she was bullied by her, Feng was also calm and silently endured all the injustice.

Pointing at Cao Ning, Di Ying said coldly, "You'll see the result in two hours. Cao Ning, prepare to die!"

After saying this, Di Ying bowed respectfully to Feng and said, "Aunt Feng, please sit down. I will be back soon."

Feng sighed and said, "I am already a monk. It is better to let this matter go. There is no need to create further anger and delusion, which will ruin my spiritual heart."

Di Ying shook her head firmly: "Aunt Feng is a nun, but I am not, and neither is Zhao Xiaoqian. If this matter doesn't come to a conclusion, not only will the Chu Palace, but even my Di family will be at war with this Cao!"

Having said that, Di Ying turned and left.

Cao Ning stood there, his face turning red and blue, his eyes filled with fear, staring at Di Ying's back as she disappeared down the path.

…………

After leaving Yaohua Palace, Di Ying, who originally had a fierce and angry expression, suddenly slumped her shoulders and then tears fell.

The strength and power she had pretended to have just now disappeared at this moment. Di Ying walked while crying bitterly.

"How terrible, how terrible, fighting with others is so terrible..." Di Ying muttered.

The wounds on her cheeks and mouth corners were hurting again. Di Ying raised her hands and rubbed her cheeks gently. She gasped in pain and cried even harder.

"Oooooh... It hurts, it hurts so much! Mr. Zhao, I have done my best today. If you don't avenge your mother and me, I will ask my father to beat you!" Although Di Ying is the descendant of a famous general, she has been brought up as a lady from a noble family and has never fought with anyone. Today's fierce fight with Cao Ning is her first since she came of age.

Half an hour later, Di Ying, with bruises on her cheeks, arrived outside the Prince Chu's mansion.

It happened that Chen Shou was on duty outside the palace gate today. Chen Shou naturally recognized Di Ying. He was shocked to see that Di Ying's pretty face was covered with bruises and her clothes were extremely disheveled.

"Miss Di, may I ask..." Chen Shou stepped forward politely and asked.

Di Ying stamped her feet: "What are you asking? Stop asking. Hurry up and call your son out. Something's wrong!"

Chen Shou knew that Di Ying had a friendship with his own prince, and perhaps there was even a little ambiguity between them.

So Chen Shou did not dare to delay and hurried into the mansion to report.

After a while, Zhao Xiaoqian hurried out the door.

Seeing the disheveled and injured Di Ying, Zhao Xiaoqian asked in surprise, "You got beaten up?"

When Di Ying saw Zhao Xiaoqian, her experience in Yaohua Palace came to her mind. She could no longer hide the grievances and fear that she had been suppressing, and burst into tears.

Zhao Xiaoqian was about to cry: "What do you mean? Are you trying to scam me at my door?"

Di Ying ignored him and continued crying loudly.

After crying for a while, Di Ying grabbed Zhao Xiaoqian's sleeve and wiped her face with it, wiping away the tears. Finally, she miraculously regained her composure.

"Prince, Mo Duo said that you should bring your people and follow me. Your mother was bullied in Yaohua Palace."

Zhao Xiaoqian was staring at his sleeves with disdain, but when he heard this he was startled and his expression became serious.

"My mother was bullied? Who did it?"

Before Di Ying could answer, Zhao Xiaoqian turned his head and looked at Chen Shou, murderous intent evident in his eyes.

"Chen Shou, gather a hundred people and follow me to Yaohua Palace!"

"Yes!" Chen Shou clasped his fists, then turned around and shouted, "Assemble!"

In an instant, more than a hundred imperial guards quickly lined up in the open space outside the gate.

Zhao Xiaoqian called for the palace's carriage, pulled Di Ying onto it, and the group strode towards Yaohua Palace.

Inside the carriage, Di Ying explained the cause and effect and the characters clearly. After she finished, she looked up at Zhao Xiaoqian, only to see that his face became colder and murderous intent flashed across his face.

Di Ying's heart sank, and she hurriedly said, "Cao Ning, just teach him a lesson. Don't let anyone get killed, or else it will be a disaster."

Zhao Xiaoqian was silent for a while, then smiled at her. His hand couldn't help but stroke her cheek, and his eyes suddenly became gentle.

"You sought justice for my mother, and I, a lady from a wealthy family, had to do it myself. I'm sorry for the hardship you've endured. This favor is so great that I, Zhao Xiaoqian, will remember it today. Thank you very much."

Di Ying's heart warmed. She turned her head and looked away, pretending to be indifferent. "I just couldn't stand the injustice in the world, and I couldn't bear to see someone as good as Aunt Feng being bullied. That's why I couldn't help but take action. It wasn't for you, don't misunderstand me."

Zhao Xiaoqian smiled and said, "Anyway, thank you very much. I will definitely repay you after this matter is settled."

"I don't want it!" Di Ying said proudly.

Half an hour later, at noon, the carriage suddenly stopped. Outside, Chen Shou said in a cold voice, "Sir, we have arrived at Yaohua Palace."

Zhao Xiaoqian's eyes quickly turned cold, and he lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.

The huge scene of more than a hundred people made the imperial guards on duty outside the Yaohua Palace nervous, and they couldn't help but press the hilt of the sword at their waist.

"Who are you? Yaohua Palace is a place for Kundao practice, men are not allowed to enter!" An officer of the Imperial Guards on duty stepped forward and shouted sternly.

Zhao Xiaoqian sneered. He didn't go in before because he didn't want to break the rules, but you guys are bullying my mother, so don't blame me for breaking the rules!

Zhao Xiaoqian stood in front of the battalion commander, calmly took out an ivory jade pendant from his arms, and flashed it in front of the battalion commander.

"Imperial City Division is on duty. All outsiders must stay away. Those who violate this will be charged with treason!"
