Chapter 13 - Rationale for dissent

The Crown Prince's Palace.

Murong Xun looked at the document absentmindedly, looking outside every now and then, as if he was waiting for something.

"Your Highness."

Li Feng walked in and bowed.

He raised his eyes and looked behind Li Feng, but did not see his figure, causing Murong Xun to frown.

"Where is he?"

Li Feng lowered his eyes, and took out the decree that Murong Xun had given him earlier, "Reporting to Your Highness, the Crown Prince's consort is unwilling to receive the decree."

Murong Xun's gaze darkened, "Reason."

"I have to listen to the truth."

Seemingly seeing through Li Feng's intentions, Murong Xun coldly growled.

Li Feng no longer dared to hesitate, and immediately replied, "The Crown Princess said, the things that Her Highness is worried about will not happen, at least …"

Halfway through his words, Li Feng began to tie the knot again. Why did it seem so easy for the princess consort to say all these?

"At least what?"

Murong Xun frowned, his voice becoming colder.

Li Feng lowered his eyes and braced himself, "At least it won't happen before the marriage annulment."

"Crack …"

The corner of the table was crushed once again, and the table shattered.

Li Feng closed his eyes, unable to bear looking at it.

He knew it would end like this. He had a premonition that the tables in the East Palace would be changed quite a lot in the future.

Murong Xun clenched his fists tightly, the fire in his eyes flickering.

Want to break off the engagement?

Then try it.

Bai Mansion, Jun Ting Yuan.

Bai Ruoyu's mother Zhao Family took off his makeup while looking at the copper mirror.

"Madame, Second Miss is coming over." The servant, Su Xiu came in to report.

Zhao Family heard this and frowned. She put down the dustpan in her hands, stood up and came out to receive him.

"Why are you here so late?"

Bai Ruoyu passed the Cloud Silk Cloak in her hand to Su Xiu, "I have something to tell you."

Zhao Family was startled, then she glanced at Su Xiu, Xiang Xiu, and said, "You two go out first."

"Yes."

The two of them bowed and left.

"What is it?"

Dragging Bai Ruoyu to the table, Zhao Family poured her a cup of tea.

Bai Ruoyu sighed lightly, "The plan failed. Not only did nothing happen to Bai Lier, he got herself into a foolishness."

Zhao Family's hand trembled, and the water in the teapot splashed onto her hand, but it did not feel hot even when it dripped onto her hand. Only after a long while did she manage to react, and said nervously, "Are you saying that the little bitch isn't stupid?"

Bai Ruoyu nodded, "Not only are you not stupid, you're also very powerful. I heard that you taught the eighth princess a lesson in front of the crown prince today."

"Did you hear wrongly? How could that fool dare to provoke the eighth princess?"

Zhao Family opened her eyes wide in shock, disbelief written all over her face.

"Absolutely."

Seeing Zhao Family's excited reaction, a trace of impatience flashed past Bai Ruoyu's eyes.

"Then does the Crown Prince punish her very badly?"

Zhao Family had a face of schadenfreude, even saying that the fool was not stupid. She saw that she had become even more foolish, daring to provoke the eighth princess, the crown prince would definitely hate her even more now.

Seeing Zhao Family's expression, the impatience in Bai Ruoyu's eyes became even more.

"Not only did the crown prince not blame her, he even wanted to bring her into the palace."

He could not help but pour cold water on Zhao Family. Thinking about Murong Xun's decree, Bai Ruoyu became angry in his heart.

"What, what right does that fool have to enter the palace?"

Zhao Family immediately jumped up in excitement, scolding him unhappily.

Bai Ruoyu shot a cold glance at Zhao Family, "Even if she's an idiot, he's still the crown prince's fiancee. Furthermore, he's not an idiot anymore."

She had spent so much time and effort but still couldn't break the engagement with the crown prince. Now that she had regained her consciousness, it would be even more difficult to break the engagement.

The moment he thought about Bai Lier's identity, the Zhao Family became discouraged.

"Then what does the crown prince mean? Didn't he agree to let you be his secondary wife? "

Bai Ruoyu squinted slightly and snorted coldly.

"You have to deal with her properly when she returns tomorrow." Bai Ruoyu raised her eyes and looked at Zhao Family as she explained in a serious tone.

When the Zhao Family heard this, he smiled confidently.

"Don't worry about that. Even if she's not stupid, what can a young girl who hasn't even reached puberty do?"

Bai Ruoyu's eyes flashed lightly, "Don't underestimate her, she's not easy to deal with."

She had a premonition that this Bai Lier was definitely her rival. If she knew earlier, she would have killed her earlier.
