Rebirth Of The Female Antagonist: - 155 His Punishmen
While XuanRong was trying not to laugh, XuanLi and Xiao Lou’s face turned purple. Everything went wrong in an instant. XuanLi only wanted to show his seniority towards the couple since he was XuanRong’s father, it was only right to make XuanRong and Xu Fei Yi lower their heads. Who would have thought that because he did not salute first, showing curtsy and respect, XuanRong would immediately pour dirty water on him, saying that he was disrespecting the royal blood of the Imperial Family?
Before he could even say anything, XuanRong had already rob him the opportunity using false pretense. XuanLi could clearly see that XuanRong was very talented in acting. The stupid QinWang was being used effortlessly under her fake acting. He was not even sure if Xu Fei Yi understood the conversation and the entire situation. Xu Fei Yi unreasonably went angry because he screamed at XuanRong and not because they did not pay respect towards him.
How stupid!!
Although XuanLi really wanted to bully XuanRong, he would never admit it.
While XuanLi was busy cursing XuanRong as he kneeled, on the other hand, Xiao Lou could not help but bite her lips due to anger as she stared at XuanRong playing white lotus, begging for their forgiveness. Her eyes sharpened as she stared at Xu Fei Yi who was glaring at XuanLi. She could not believe how stupid Xu Fei Yi was! XuanRong’s words and gestures were full of hidden provocation. Only blind could not see the hidden laughter inside her eyes.
‘Stupid fool!!! Are you even a man?! She was clearly using you but here you are, getting angry because of a stupid thing!!!’
But what could they do? What could they say?
In the end, Xu Fei Yi was the brother of the Emperor and a proper Prince of the First Rank.
Xiao Lou was starting to get worried. If this scandal reached the Emperor’s ears, he would definitely punish the entire Prime Minister’s residence and if the citizen would learn about it, they would condemn them for not following the law, especially XuanLi who was the Prime Minister of the country.
No matter what, this event should not reach outside the residence!
“Fei Yi… my father did not bully me, okay?”
“Really?”
“Really… Don’t tell His Majesty, okay?”
“…..okay.”
XuanLi and Xiao Lou exhaled in relief when they heard the couple’s conversation. No matter how much they hated XuanRong for her tricks, she was the only one who could stop the stupidity of Xu Fei Yi. Once Xu Fei Yi told the Emperor, everything would be over. Thus, when Xu Fei Yi agreed to keep everything a secret, XuanLi and Xiao Lou could finally breathe. Unfortunately, they did not expect Xu Fei Yi’s next sentence.
“Okay… I’ll only tell Mu Qing and have him cut Goat man’s finger.”
“!!!!!!!”
‘That’s even worst!!!’
If Chief Mu learned that His Highness Xu Fei Yi was not treated fairly, for sure, he would immediately flatten the entire Prime Minister’s residence. Since he was appointed by the previous Emperor, the current Emperor would have to give him face. Thus, the punishment would be more severe than the previous one!
XuanLi cursed his luck. If he only followed the standard protocol and respectfully paid curtsey to Xu Fei Yi, he would not have this kind of problem. There were many methods he could use in order to put XuanRong in her proper place. Too bad, what he had chosen was the worst plan. He only wanted to throw in their face that he was the senior, but he ended being punished.
Everyone was stupefied especially XuanLi. He could not help but hide his hands inside his sleeves.
XuanRong almost give away herself. Luckily, she was able to hold herself back.
“Fei Yi… promise me…”
Xu Fei Yi knew that XuanRong was already done playing and had already achieve her plan. Thus, showing a reluctant face, Xu Fei Yi was ‘forced’ to agree using the pinky promise.
“Okay… Yi’er will listen to Wife JieJie and will not tell anyone that they bullied you… but Yi’er is still angry… Imperial Brother said that Yi’er can punish anyone if they anger Yi’er. Wife JieJie… can I punish them?”
XuanRong’s face was full of worry.
“This…..”
Looking at Xu Fei Yi’s angry face, XuanRong could only give in.
Sighing, XuanRong nodded.
“Since it is like that, then, you can punish father.”
“You–!!!!!”
XuanRong turned her head and cut off XuanLi’s words.
“Be careful, father. This daughter already plead for His Highness’ leniency. What would you do if you anger His Highness once again?” XuanRong smiled sweetly.
“Okay! You and you, will have to kneel until tomorrow!!” Xu Fei Yi pointed XuanLi and Xiao Lou.
‘WHAT?!’ both XuanLi and Xiao Lou screamed internally.
It was only the hour of the Snake[1]. If they kneel until tomorrow, it was a great torture for both of them!
