Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 886 - 38: The Wicked Woman Strikes First

"How did you judge people?" Dugu Xiu’s hawk-like eyes were filled with anger.

The person was brought out by Madam Bi, and Yun Sheng was in trouble, yet Madam Bi was comfortably seated in another box.

Dugu Xiu couldn’t help but suspect that Madam Bi was deliberately framing Yun Sheng.

Madam Bi was also at a loss for words; she had no idea that Yun Sheng and the others had arrived at the Heavenly Pavilion, let alone how Qing Meng had encountered them.

As Dugu Xiu was scolding, Qing Meng’s anxious voice could be heard from the room at the end, "Beautiful lady, let’s see where you run."

Dugu Xiu took a long stride to the door of the room, and just at that moment, someone jumped out from inside.

Yun Sheng initially thought it was Chi Bi coming in, but when she looked again, the person was tall and broad, blocking the entire doorway. Just as she was about to curse, she realized it was Dugu Xiu.

Looking at Dugu Xiu’s face, which could freeze all creatures within a mile.

Uh, Yun Sheng couldn’t help but feel sorry for Qing Meng.

But Yun Sheng wouldn’t miss this rare opportunity; she didn’t care who Madam Bi or Dugu Xiu was, anyone coming was like a deity, capable of crushing Qing Meng.

She hid behind Dugu Xiu.

In Yun Sheng’s mind, she quickly recalled the expressions of countless malicious female supporting characters from melodramatic dramas. Her dark eyes instantly filled with tears, and she pointed with her delicate jade-like hand while using a quivering voice, "Crown Prince, he, he bullied me."

Donghuang Lingling, who had just caught up, couldn’t help but shiver, her skin covered in goosebumps.

This day... really seems to be turning on its head. It was her first time seeing her good friend Yun Sheng in this state.

Dugu Xiu felt a surge of blood boil in his head. In reality, he also harbored some doubts in his mind—after all, in this day and age, Yun Sheng was always the one bullying others, when had anyone been able to bully her?

However, it was rare for Yun Sheng to proactively seek his help like today. Just seeing her panicked appearance earlier made Dugu Xiu feel deeply distressed.

Inside the room, Qing Meng saw his cousin rushing over with a group of people.

The "great beauty of the Sky Fox Clan" ran towards his cousin with an aggrieved look, leaving Qing Meng stunned.

Looking again at Dugu Xiu’s knife-like gaze, Qing Meng’s legs immediately started trembling like noodles.

Oh my God, could it be that what those two women said earlier was true, that this woman is really the Crown Prince Consort, the Princess Donghuang from the Eastern Capital?

But this woman, isn’t she the one from the auction earlier?

No matter how he looked, Qing Meng was convinced that Yun Sheng was the woman of the Sky Fox Clan. With his pig-like brain, he couldn’t fathom that someone had swapped places just moments ago.

Dugu Xiu pulled Yun Sheng in front of him and carefully examined her.

She was panting heavily, her hair disheveled, and what was more infuriating, a section of her sleeve had been torn away, exposing half of her translucent, jade-like wrist.

Dugu Xiu immediately took off his coat and wrapped Yun Sheng tightly.

Dugu Xiu glared at Qing Meng with hatred, and Qing Meng, wretchedly, was still holding the torn piece of Yun Sheng’s sleeve.

Although Qing Meng was a playboy, he was still from the legitimate lineage of the Qing family’s military generals.

Being from a martial family, with all sorts of elixirs, his Martial Realm was at the Martial Arts Peak. Yun Sheng, without any Magic Power, could only rely on her movement technique to win.

The room was too narrow, and with one careless dodge earlier, her sleeve was torn off.

"Qing Meng, who gave you the guts to flirt with the Crown Prince’s Consort," Dugu Xiu enunciated each word, advancing towards Qing Meng step by step. Terrified, Qing Meng couldn’t even speak properly, kneeling on the ground while retreating continuously.

He protested feebly, "Cousin... no, no, Your Highness, I didn’t know. I thought this woman was the female slave from the Beidou Auction. If I had known, even with a hundred guts, I wouldn’t have dared to touch the Crown Princess."

"He’s lying. We already told him we’re from the Crown Prince Mansion, and he said if the Princess is the Crown Princess, then he’s the Crown Prince, and tonight he would favor the Princess," Donghuang Lingling, fearing chaos in the world, stood by fanning the flames.

Dugu Xiu’s expression darkened even further.

"You dare call the Crown Prince’s woman a female slave and even want to favor her?"

For speaking such outrageous words, Qing Meng dared to say it out loud.

With Dugu Xiu’s whole body emanating fighting spirit as intense as flames, his knuckles cracked, and he looked at Qing Meng as if he were a dead man. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Madam Bi was alarmed and hurriedly interceded for Qing Meng, "Your Highness, Qing Meng is still your own cousin, the only brother of Consort Qing. While he did offend the Princess, it was unintentional. You cannot, cannot kill him."

"Crown Prince, please spare me," Qing Meng pleaded, his head nodding like a chicken pecking at rice. He hadn’t expected Dugu Xiu to be so angry this time.

"Princess, please plead for mercy. Master Qing Meng is Empress Qing’s most beloved nephew," Madam Bi knew that Yun Sheng was the only one who could persuade Dugu Xiu.

She hurriedly gave Yun Sheng a look, implying a warning that she should be cautious with Empress Qing, her future mother-in-law, whom she still needed to serve carefully before marrying in.

Not to mention that Qing Qiang had an esteemed position in the Crown Prince Mansion, even if Yun Sheng married Dugu Xiu and became the Crown Princess, she would still have to consider Qing Qiang.

In a couple of days, everyone from the Crown Prince Mansion would enter the palace, and Yun Sheng would inevitably meet Empress Qing face to face. Madam Bi thought that with her words, Yun Sheng would understand her meaning.

But unexpectedly, Yun Sheng was dismissive in her heart—what was Empress Qing, really thinking she was her future mother-in-law?

She and Dugu Xiu could never be a couple, and she couldn’t care less about Empress Qing or Qing Qiang’s expressions.

Under Madam Bi’s eager gaze, Yun Sheng remained silent.

She pretended to lament, "What a pity, this was my favorite piece of clothing."

As she spoke, her wrist moved slightly, revealing a faint red mark on the spot where the fabric was torn—a mark from being inadvertently brushed by Qing Meng.

Dugu Xiu’s gaze narrowed, his actions swift as a thunderbolt.

With a cracking sound, Qing Meng’s right hand slumped, the arm that was fine a moment ago now hung limply.

Qing Meng let out a scream like a slaughtered pig.

"Remember, next time, if you even touch her, not even the Empress Dowager will be able to save you," Dugu Xiu spat out the warning.

Qing Meng dared not utter a word of defiance. Looking once more at the ethereal looking Princess Donghuang standing by Dugu Xiu, she gave him a cold smile.

This woman had two different faces, and even more infuriating was that his cousin seemed entranced by her, following her every word.

Qing Meng was filled with hatred.

You damned Donghuang Sheng, I swear I’ll hold this grudge against you. As long as I’m around in Hou Qin, don’t think you’ll find a foothold here.
