Chapter 6: Do you think, I care about the position of Princess?

Feng Yexuan released his grip.

Chu Qianli immediately stepped back two paces, distancing herself from him.

Her wrist burned painfully!

Yet she was very clear that the man had not used his full strength just now.

If he had truly exerted himself, her hands would have likely been useless by now.

His martial skills were terrifyingly profound!

"Even if she had no ill intent towards Ruirui just now, she did indeed harm him tonight!"

Consort Jin was pushed and even kicked by her.

How could she swallow this indignity if she didn't retaliate?

"Xuanxuan, if it weren't for her, why would Ruirui be in such a state!"

Feng Yexuan's icy gaze settled on Chu Qianli; his deep eyes slowly narrowed.

"I didn't poison him! The poisoning was a false accusation by Cuicui."

There must be someone behind Cuicui pulling the strings!

However, Consort Jin was furious: "Cuicui is already dead, with no proof left. Of course, you can slander her as you please!"

In any case, Consort Jin was determined to ensure that Chu Qianli could not turn the situation around!

She angrily exclaimed, "Xuanxuan, for such an indecent woman, why do you still keep her in the residence? Divorce her already!"

Divorce!

The onlookers were all holding their breath, not daring to make a sound.

Divorce was no trivial matter!

A Princess can be executed for her crimes, but divorce affects the reputation of the Duke Residence!

At this point, likely only Chu Qianli herself remained uncaring.

"You think I care for the position of Princess?"

Chu Qianli scoffed coldly with disdain: "But before I leave, I must clear my name!"

"The drug wasn't administered by me."

She glared at Feng Jinrui: "When have you ever eaten or drunk anything given to you by Cuicui?"

"To my knowledge, after you entered my room, you didn't touch any food at all."

Feng Jinrui looked down; he was earnestly trying to recall.

Finally, he shook his head: "Whether it's your items or Cuicui's, I never touched any."

"Then why are you so sure that I was the one who drugged you?"

"I...", Feng Jinrui thought for a moment, then hesitated.

"After I entered the room, I smelled a fragrance and soon passed out..."

"It must have been this enchantress who used a sedative!" Consort Jin accused angrily.

Chu Qianli laughed out of anger: "With Prince Jinrui's skills, do you think it would be so easy for me to ambush him?"

"Besides, I was unconscious long before Prince Jinrui arrived because of the tea Cuicui gave me."

She stared at Feng Jinrui: "When you entered the room, did you see me awake?"

Feng Jinrui thought about it and then shook his head: "No..."

Consort Jin immediately interrupted him: "Now that Cuicui is dead, you're quick to push all the blame onto her!"

After all, Consort Jin had already decided that the deed was Chu Qianli's doing.

Feng Jinrui suddenly coughed twice.

Consort Jin's face was instantly filled with anxiety: "Ruirui, are you alright?"

"Mother Consort, I... uh—" Suddenly, Feng Jinrui's complexion changed, and to everyone's shock, he vomited a mouthful of black blood.

Everyone was startled!

This... was a sign of poisoning!

"Ruirui, Ruirui, how are you? Who could it be... It must be this vile woman! She just poisoned Ruirui!"

Chu Qianli was at a loss for words.

Why on earth would Feng Jinrui choose this moment to spit blood in her direction?

Ironically enough, she had actually given him a Heart-Saving Elixir not long ago!

Outside the door, a guard hurried in: "Prince, Lady Yu has returned!"

Consort Jin's eyes lit up with urgency: "Quick! Please invite her in! Ruirui is in bad shape!"

The room was in instant chaos and Feng Yexuan no longer had the heart to deal with Chu Qianli.

He commanded coldly, "Take her to Qianyun Pavilion! Guard her strictly!"

Consort Jin cursed fiercely, "If anything happens to Ruirui, I'll take your life!"

No one paid her any heed.

Qing Ming stepped quickly to Chu Qianli, his voice cold: "Princess, please!"

Chu Qianli wanted to look at Feng Jinrui, but Qing Ming stepped forward abruptly: "Princess, please don't force me to be rough!"

"You think you can defeat me?" Chu Qianli was on guard.

Qing Ming spoke displeased: "Even if the Princess does not think highly of me, there are plenty of skilled individuals within and outside the Prince Residence. Does the Princess also believe she can overcome everyone, including the Prince?"

Chu Qianli said nothing.

Feng Jinrui was in a critical condition.

Starting a fight now, if anything were to happen to Feng Jinrui, with no evidence to back her, it would indeed be unfavorable to her.

With Cuicui gone, Feng Jinrui must not encounter any mishaps at this critical juncture!

Qing Ming pressed closer again: "Princess, please!"
