"Your Highness, you are so strange! We don't even have the slightest emotional foundation!"
"If I recall correctly, you married me because of the peach blossom trap I designed. You weren't willing at all."
Chu Qianli rolled her eyes.
Why did this guy look like a jealous little husband now?
He clearly hated her to death!
"Does Your Highness like me now?"
Of course, she didn't believe that herself.
As expected, Feng Yexuan's eyes were full of disdain!
"This Prince would like a cunning woman like you?" he scoffed.
"Ha, I know myself well. I know you don't like me, just as I don't like... forget it, I never said that."
Sigh! She had angered him again!
This scoundrel only allowed himself to dislike others but not anyone else to say they disliked him.
Utterly shameless!
Her wrist began to ache again.
Her delicate brows furrowed once more.
Chu Qianli flicked her wrist lightly, displeased, "In short, if it weren't for Your Highness that night, there would have been other men."
"The person hiding behind the scenes clearly wanted to completely ruin me!"
"And speaking of me being locked up, those two black-clothed assassins who came to claim my life..."
She looked directly into Feng Yexuan's eyes.
Although Prince Xuan was indeed terrifying at times, she wasn't a pushover either.
Feng Yexuan had to admit that this woman was truly bold.
Under his fury, very few women dared to face his wrath like this.
Was she the same person as the foolish and subservient seventh daughter of the Duke's mansion from before?
"Your Highness knows perfectly well that staying in your Xuan Prince's mansion is a dead end. Why else would I stay?"
Feng Yexuan couldn't refute this.
Indeed, so much had happened to her in just three days!
Any slight mistake in any of them could have cost her life.
"Most importantly, Your Highness knew that Consort Jin was taking the blame for someone else, yet you didn't expose the person behind it."
"Your Highness, even if the evidence cannot truly point to the real culprit now, you yourself know who the real culprit is!"
"Are you indulging the villain because she still has value to the Empress Dowager?"
Chu Qianli snorted coldly, her thin lips curling into a half-smile.
"Your Highness is truly shrewd! This humble woman is no match for you! If I continue to stay in the Xuan Prince's mansion, even if I'm not killed by villains, if I displease Your Highness one day, I might be easily killed by you!"
Feng Yexuan couldn't utter a single word.
Never had anyone seen through him so clearly!
Why was this woman so intelligent?
And so bold!
Not only did she see through him, but she also dared to speak his thoughts aloud!
Was she truly not afraid of death?
Suddenly, the sound of a patient coughing came from the room.
The smile on Chu Qianli's lips faded slightly.
She was serious when it came to saving lives.
"Your Highness, I am a physician here. I am saving people, not playing games. Please let go!"
She forcefully shook her hand.
This time, she finally managed to break free from Feng Yexuan's grasp.
Regaining her freedom, Chu Qianli immediately entered the room and was about to close the door.
Unexpectedly, the person behind her followed her steps and walked in.
Chu Qianli's expression changed: "You can't come in, this is a high-risk area."
"If you can enter, why can't this Prince? Do you think this Prince is inferior to a weak woman like you?"
Feng Yexuan pushed the door open and walked past her into the room:
"Since you're here to save people, how about this Prince assisting you?"
