Although Feng Lei Ting was shocked, being the Marquis, he quickly regained his composure and smiled at Rong Ling: "I have been here to welcome the Prince since early this morning."
Rong Ling chuckled softly, his gaze meaningful as he looked at Feng Lei Ting and said, "The Marquis is indeed considerate."
Although the words were ordinary, Feng Lei Ting felt an onset of ferocity and turbulence within them, causing him to shiver unconsciously.
The Prince Regent couldn't possibly be suspecting them, could he?
Just as Feng Lei Ting was thinking, an unpleasant voice sounded from behind.
"Big Sister, you are truly out of line, changing Second Sister's bridal sedan and marrying into the Regent Prince Mansion. Do you think you are worthy of the Prince Regent?"
After one person spoke, another chimed in, "Exactly, you actually stole Second Sister's marriage. Despite how good she normally is to you, do you have any conscience?"
Feng Lei Ting turned around to see Miss Feng San, Feng Yu, and his youngest daughter Feng Rou, glaring angrily at Feng Qing.
Feng Qing, looking amused, observed the two women. The delicate, lotus-like woman was the concubine daughter of Feng Family's second house, Miss Feng San, Feng Yu. The slender, captivating woman was the concubine daughter of Feng Family's main house, Miss Feng Si, Feng Rou.
These two women were always Feng Yao's lackeys, constantly bullying the former self, then Feng Yao would come out feigning kindness to console the eldest daughter of the Feng Family, earning a reputation for being benevolent.
Looking at the pair, Feng Qing sneered coldly twice and said, "Are you out of your minds? I am not mad enough to switch the bridal sedan to go from being Empress to a Princess Consort."
Once Feng Qing finished speaking, Feng Lei Ting and Old Madam Feng were so shocked that their limbs went limp. The two instinctively turned to look at Rong Ling.
Rong Ling's exquisite face showed no change in expression, which made Feng Lei Ting and the old madam increasingly nervous.
Unable to contain himself, Feng Lei Ting yelled angrily at Feng Qing: "Wretched daughter."
Old Madam Feng then shouted loudly, "Feng Qing, come with me."
Feng Lei Ting politely addressed Rong Ling: "It's an unfortunate family, an unfortunate family indeed. Please forgive us, Prince."
After saying this, he invited Rong Ling to enter the Marquis Jing'an Mansion. Behind them, the old madam and Madam followed closely, while Feng Qing and the others trailed behind as they made their way into the Marquis Jing'an Mansion.
The whole group moved grandly towards Fushou Hall, where the old madam resided. Upon entering Fushou Hall, the old madam and the Marquis invited Rong Ling to take the seat of honor, and then they sat down in order.
Once everyone was seated, the old madam began to make difficulties for Feng Qing.
"Kneel."
Her voice was sharp and imposing.
Yet, standing below was Feng Qing, her expression indifferent as she looked at the old madam: "I don't know what crime I have committed that I need to kneel."
Upon seeing Feng Qing's behavior, Old Madam and Marquis Feng Lei Ting's faces grew ugly as they berated in succession: "Wretched daughter, you have caused such a disaster, yet you remain unrepentant?"
"If we had known you were so bold and reckless, we should have killed you early on to prevent such a disgraceful scandal from occurring at the Marquis Mansion."
After the two finished speaking, they turned to look at Rong Ling on one side and said, "Prince, it is my failure as a father to have raised such a sinful daughter. I deserve a thousand deaths."
"Prince, we shall immediately bring this wretched daughter back, she will not be allowed to disgrace the family of the Prince."
Rong Ling gazed profoundly at the old madam and the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion, his expression unchanged.
The old madam and the Marquis were uncertain about Rong Ling's intentions, filled with terrifying uncertainty.
Feng Qing, standing below, coldly sneered at Feng Lei Ting and the old madam. This truly was such a fine father and grandmother of the prior self. Seeing that she wasn't dead, they now schemed to bring her home to possibly silence her forever?
