Chapter 516 Officially Falling out with the He Family

Yu Mingyong felt that he was about to be beheaded when he heard that King Xuan added another sin to his list. He was so frightened that he almost wet his pants. He was afraid that Feng Yuran would kill him on the spot. He said hurriedly, “Your Highness, Your Highness, I have, I have evidence. They said that they would find a way to get a hornet’s nest to the tree by the lake. When Consort Xuan passed by, it would fall and the hornets in it would fly out. When everyone was in chaos, the slut would push Consort Xuan into the lake.”

A hornet’s nest?

It immediately occurred to the crowd that when it was in a mess just now, there was indeed someone crying out that there were hornets. They saw many maids and elder maidservants pulling out their handkerchiefs and sleeves to drive something forcefully, which made it hard to make out who had fallen into the lake. They only heard someone screaming that Consort Xuan had fallen into the lake, so everyone thought that it was Mo Xuetong who had fallen into the water.

If it weren’t for that hornet’s nest, this whole mess wouldn’t have happened. It seemed that Yu Mingyong was telling the truth, especially now that he was still glaring at He Yufen, who was half-lying on the ground, as if he wanted to tear her apart.

Feng Yuran looked at He Yufen and asked coldly, “He Yufen, is what he said true?”

Since she woke up from a semi-comatose state, He Yufen had been trembling. She pulled the belt of her dress and huddled, unable to utter a word. However, it was only because she was just saved from the lake, she was more panicky.

How could something like this happen? Shouldn’t Mo Xuetong fall into the lake, and be rescued by Yu Mingyong and ruin her reputation? How could she fall into the lake because she was staggered for a moment? After that, she did not even have time to think about what was going on. She only struggled subconsciously. However, as a woman, her strength could not be compared to an adult man’s. She was too weak to break away from Yu Mingyong who tried to take her ashore even with all her effort.

At this time, she would rather die like this than lose face. “Oh, no, I’m done!” She didn’t know what to do next. Her face paled and she just lowered her head miserably and didn’t say a word. Her mind went blank.

She only lifted her head when she heard the call from above. She looked up at Feng Yuran who was seated high. His handsome face looked as if covered with frost. Then, she looked at Mo Xuetong who was seated by his side. There was disdain and ridicule on her beautiful face. It was as if she was saying that even if she had calculated everything, this was how she came to be.

He Yufen noticed that Mo Xuetong intentionally moved closer to Feng Yuran, and that her pink lips curled up, carrying a provocative taunt. He Yufen’s chaotic mind was filled with hatred. She could not help but point at Mo Xuetong and scream, “It’s you, you bitch. I am supposed to be Consort Xuan. Aunt said that the position can only be mine. How dare you take that position? You must have seduced Cousin Xuan. Our He family will not let you off the hook. I will take that position back. Only I am worthy of this position and Cousin Xuan.”

At this time, she shouted at the top of her voice and her beautiful eyes were full of blood-red hatred. She stared at Mo Xuetong as if she wanted to pounce on her and tear her apart.

Mo Xuetong leaned towards Feng Yuran in fear and pulled on his clothes timidly. There was a hint of water in her bright eyes. She looked at He Yufen in confusion and asked, “Concubine He, how could you say something like that? I was going to marry King Xuan before your He family came. When did I take over the position from the He family? When did the position of Consort Xuan end up belonging to the He family?”

Her delicate appearance made people feel sorry for her. Many people immediately stood on her side and fiercely looked at He Yufen, who was not properly dressed. Everyone thought that she was an eyesore. She was such a vicious woman and only a concubine, but she dared to covet the position of Consort Xuan.

Most of the people present were wives and legitimate daughters. They would not like a concubine who wanted to become the wife, so they scolded her incessantly, which made He Yufen start to lose her mind. She stared at Mo Xuetong and felt that this slut had seduced her cousin, causing him to turn a blind eye to her beauty.

“Cousin Xuan, how could you support her like that? What’s so good about that bitch? Cousin Xuan, I’m your cousin. Before I came, Aunt told me that I was going to be your wife. I came here for you, Cousin Xuan. Everything I do is for you. You have to have my back!” He Yufen cried out. Her hair was disheveled and there were some water plants on her head. Her face was streaked with powder, making it hard to see her beautiful features.

Everyone thought that she looked like a ghost and was really ugly. When they heard that her aunt was aimed at the position of Consort Xuan, they immediately looked at her with disgusted and meaningful gazes.

Who was He Yufen’s aunt? Of course, it was Consort Zhao in the palace. Unexpectedly, Consort Zhao in the palace wanted to kill her niece-in-law and wanted her niece to replace her. It was said that the consort was virtuous, graceful, and decent, but she had done something outside the palace. How could she be generous and decent?

It seemed that the Emperor’s favorite concubine was not as gentle as she appeared to be on the surface. She was also extremely cruel and merciless.

“Somebody, beat Yu Mingyong for 20 times, and take this woman…” Feng Yuran smiled devilishly. “To a brothel,” he said slowly under He Yufen’s expectant gaze.

A brothel? That was a place for men to have fun. He Yufen was stunned. When she saw two guards coming to pull her, she suddenly became sober and struggled with all her might. “Your Highness, Cousin Xuan, Cousin Xuan, please spare me. Cousin Xuan, please spare me.”

Finding the two guards dragging her out without mercy, He Yufen finally felt scared and she cried out, “Your Highness, Your Highness, please spare me! Please spare me! I…” Suddenly, she thought of something and her eyes lit up. Then she yelled loudly, “Your Highness, I have something to…”

However, before she could finish her words, the guards grabbed the handkerchief that had fallen in front of her and blocked her mouth. Her hands were clamped, so she couldn’t use her strength. Thinking that she would be thrown into a brothel, she rolled her eyes and really passed out.

Mo Xuetong calmly pinched Feng Yuran’s hand and moved her face to He Yufen’s direction, motioning him to see He Yufen clearly. Mo Xuetong was slightly shocked when she heard that He Yufen said she knew something. She had a feeling that He Yufen knew more than He Yuxiu did and that she might even know some old stories.

Feng Yuran did not turn around, but gave her a pinch back.

At the same time, Yu Mingyong was also dragged away. When he thought that he would not be beaten to death, Yu Mingyong breathed a sigh of relief. He was strong, so this punishment would not kill him. But when he thought that it was the He family that started this matter and that Consort Zhao was involved in this matter, he couldn’t wait to go to the palace and complain to his sister immediately.

“The He family and Consort Zhao! You’re making enemies with our Yu family!”

Looking at how Feng Yuran dealt with He Yufen, and his angry handsome face—even though there was a smile on his face, it looked ferocious—a few, who had wanted to be close to the He family for the sake of King Xuan and Consort Zhao, gave up the idea.

King Xuan sent his cousin to the brothel which meant that he officially fell out with the He family!

It seemed that they’d better keep away from the He family. On the one hand, it would offend King Xuan. On the other hand, the He family was too vicious. Many felt that the He family had no humanity when they saw how nervous and afraid Consort Xuan was when she clung to King Xuan!

The He family even dared to lay a finger on their own nephew’s wife. They were just too vicious!

“Ah!” All the people here had their own thoughts and stood far away from Madam Lian. Suddenly, they heard a woman’s painful scream. Everyone looked over and saw a beautiful woman covering her stomach with her hands. They were all stunned and there was some suspicion in their eyes. “What the hell is going on again?”

Then, the crowd exchanged glances, feeling speechless for a moment. It seemed that they had made a mistake to come to King Xuan’s Manor today! They ran into a lot of trouble.

Concubine Xiang was also confused. She had no clue what happened just now. When she rushed to Mo Xuetong, she had made a good plan. Whether Mo Xuetong avoided her or fell into the lake, because of what happened before, everyone would think that Mo Xuetong was jealous of her so that she deliberately did such a thing to hurt the child in her belly.

If she lost the child in her belly, King Xuan would divorce Mo Xuetong. Even if he didn’t divorce her for a while, he would treat her coldly. And she could win his care because of the child she lost. Maybe she could become the second consort in one stroke. By then, Mo Xuetong who was snubbed couldn’t compete with her.

In the future, as long as she worked hard, it would not be difficult for her to make Mo Xuetong lose the position of Consort Xuan.

The hornet’s nest that had fallen out of thin air made her thrilled. She planned to blame it entirely on Mo Xuetong, and then she would not be able to explain herself at all.

Her hand was about to touch Mo Xuetong when she suddenly felt a flash in front of her. Mo Xuetong had disappeared out of thin air. Then, her vision darkened, and she felt a heavy blow behind her neck. She was knocked unconscious by someone.

Before she closed her eyes, she heard a splash, and then someone shouting, “Her Lady has fallen into the lake. Her Lady has fallen into the lake!”

Then she completely fainted.

Only then did she wake up slightly. She touched her slightly dazed head and looked at the group of people in front of her. She could not make heads or tails of the situation and only felt pain in her belly. She reached out to cover her belly and moaned softly.

The maid who also fainted didn’t wake up until now. She didn’t know what had happened either, and only saw many madams, ladies and young masters present. She thought she had missed something important. At this time, Concubine Xiang beside her moaned slightly. She hurriedly turned around and saw Concubine Xiang covering her belly with her hands, and the hem of her dress was red with blood.

She immediately figured out what was going on, so she screamed at once, “Ah! Hurry up…somebody, the baby in Concubine Xiang’s belly is gone! Hurry up! Help her!”

Suddenly, she looked up and saw Feng Yuran sitting in the middle. She hurried over and knelt down, kowtowing profusely. “Your Highness, please save Concubine Xiang. She has a miscarriage. Quickly, save her quickly.”
