My Aloof Lord Ex-Husband Begs for Remarriage
Chapter 369 - 370 Punishment

Chapter 369: Chapter 370 Punishment

"How dare you speak like that!"

Bai Wuheng was seething with anger at Yang Xuan’s words.

This woman had cruelly harmed Yingying, and now she showed no signs of repentance!

If it weren’t for the protection of the Yang Family behind her, he would have already taken revenge for Yingying by now.

"I haven’t said anything wrong! Cousin will one day inherit the throne, and what does it matter about a concubine-born child!"

In Yang Xuan’s past memories, the people of the Yang Family had always been subtly influencing her.

She was told by everyone at home that one day, Ye Yunting would ascend to the throne, and she would naturally become his Empress.

As for Lin Fuying, she had indeed taken an early advantage and became the War King’s Concubine.

But what of it!

In the end, she would not be the Princess Consort!

Yang Xuan was truly spoiled by her family.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t speak such outrageous words so casually.

Ye Yunting’s expression darkened, and he instinctively looked around, only to relax slightly when he noticed they were surrounded by his own people.

If the words spoken by Yang Xuan today were heard by the Emperor,

The Emperor would definitely think it was his intention to be disloyal!

Over the years, the contact between his mother and the Yang Family had indeed been too frequent.

Ye Yunting concealed the deep thoughts in his eyes, and when he looked at Yang Xuan again, his expression was icy cold.

"Over these years, you have indeed been spoiled by your uncle!"

"Have you ever thought that the child in Yingying’s womb is my bloodline, and the one you harmed is also my child!"

It must be said, this time Yang Xuan’s arrogant and unrepentant attitude truly infuriated Ye Yunting.

He looked at Yang Xuan with a cold gaze, and it was only then that Yang Xuan belatedly felt a hint of fear.

It seemed that only now she realized

Ye Yunting was not the same as the Yang Family people.

Her parents and brothers would dote on her unconditionally, even if she once scratched an official family’s young lady’s face, they would still step in to settle everything for her.

She stammered as she began to speak, "Cousin, I..."

"Enough! I will have someone send you back to the Yang Family, and as for today’s matter, I will naturally seek justice from your uncle!"

Under the persuasion of Princess Consort Yang Shu, he had indeed considered marrying Yang Xuan.

After all, marital ties would bring him closer to the Yang Family.

Because of the incident with Chu Nanli, he could already sense that the Empress Dowager was becoming vaguely dissatisfied with him and his mother.

The Empress Dowager’s words carried a lot of weight in front of the Emperor.

Since he couldn’t bring himself to curry favor with the Empress Dowager, he naturally had to choose another method.

"Cousin, you clearly know why I came to the capital this time, it’s for..."

It was to finalize the marriage with Ye Yunting!

If she returned in such a dispirited manner, who knew how those people outside would mock her in the future!

"I don’t like to waste words with people!"

These past days, this was the first time Yang Xuan had been treated so coldly and distantly.

She now realized that Ye Yunting was no longer the cousin she longed for, but the decisive War King!

Just one look from him was enough to frighten her.

Lin Fuying, who was inside the room, heard Ye Yunting’s words clearly.

Clenching the corner of the blanket, she revealed a triumphant smile.

Did Yang Xuan think she could compete with her?

With just a little trick, Fuying had provoked that fool into losing control.

When doing evil deeds, she didn’t even know how to hide her tracks properly.

"Also, execute all the maids by her side with the cane!"

He couldn’t punish Yang Xuan himself, but that didn’t mean he would let others go.

Regardless, the fetus in Lin Fuying’s womb is his only offspring at the moment.

It also represents his face and honor.

"No, it can’t be!"

Yang Xuan didn’t truly care about the lives of these few maids.

All Ye Yunting was doing was practically dragging her face through the mud!

But this was taking place at the War King Residence.

The guards of the Prince Residence would clearly only listen to one person’s command.

Yang Xuan collapsed to the floor, her face full of indignation and unwillingness.

She only regretted not striking harder; she should have taken Lin Fuying’s life directly!

Seeing her in such a disheveled state, Bai Wuheng couldn’t help but reveal a flash of satisfaction in his eyes.

What a pity that Yang Xuan didn’t have to suffer the same pain.

Just as the guard was about to forcibly drag Yang Xuan’s maids away, Ye Yi suddenly entered and informed Ye Yunting that someone from the palace had arrived.

And it was a Palace Maid from Princess Consort Yang Shu’s side.

"What does mother mean by this?" Ye Yunting lowered his eyes towards Yang Xuan. Given the current situation, it was very hard for him not to suspect that all of this was orchestrated by Yang Xuan and his mother.

Or perhaps, eliminating Lin Fuying’s child was indeed his mother’s intention.

Yet he had clearly ordered someone to seal the news; his mother should be unaware of this matter by now.

"Princess Consort Shu said that since the young miss from the Official Family has been in the capital for so long, she has not had the chance to meet her yet. Therefore, Princess Consort Shu specially sought a favor from the Empress Dowager, granting permission for the young miss to enter the palace for a meeting."

Ironically, it happened today of all days.

Knowing someone from the palace had come, Yang Xuan immediately regained her confidence.

With her maids’ assistance, she stood up, her eyes rimmed with a hint of red.

The person from the palace was after all sent by Princess Consort Yang Shu, giving Ye Yunting no reason to obstruct.

If the Princess Consort couldn’t see Yang Xuan, undoubtedly more problems would arise.

Watching Yang Xuan leave, Bai Wuheng still felt discontent.

"You’re just going to let her off like that? You know she nearly endangered Yingying’s child!"

"If mother wants to see her, what can I do?"

With Princess Consort Yang Shu suddenly sending someone out of the palace, Ye Yunting currently felt somewhat troubled.

He looked at Bai Wuheng again: "Take good care of her."

He then went straight back to his study.

Indeed, upon learning of Lin Fuying’s pregnancy, he had not felt a bit of the joy of fatherhood. Instead, there was a sense of unease he couldn’t explain.

And even today, upon learning that Lin Fuying’s fetus was nearly in danger, he wasn’t overly anxious or concerned.

He was merely displeased that Yang Xuan had challenged his authority.

Now knowing that Lin Fuying was unharmed, he seemed to also lack a reason to stay.

"You rascal!"

Bai Wuheng was equally dissatisfied with his departure.

But having known Ye Yunting for so many years, how could he not know that once this guy decided to leave, no one could stop him?

The priority of course was Lin Fuying’s well-being.

With Ye Yunting no longer present, Lin Fuying naturally wouldn’t exhaust herself with pretending.

She casually dismissed Bai Wuheng and leaned back on her bed, pondering today’s events.

Everything had gone very smoothly.

The only thing she hadn’t anticipated was the variable of Princess Consort Yang Shu.

Who would have expected Yang Shu’s person to show up so suddenly?

And to show up at such a coincidental moment.

But no matter, after today’s event, Yang Xuan had been foolish enough.

She believed that with such an incident beforehand, Yunting brother definitely wouldn’t agree to such a person becoming the War King’s Princess Consort in the future.

And if Princess Consort Yang Shu were to learn of her "pregnancy," it might even turn out to be a good thing.
