OMG! Tyrant's Pampered Baby Is a Valued Princess-Chapter 180: I’m Very Free This Afternoon

Bai Xilie was used to Feng Fuce’s attitude.

He smiled and said, "Quanxi, grant a seat to Marquis Wan!"

"Fuce, I heard about how you acted yesterday, rescuing Zhi’er from danger."

"You did very well. No matter who the opponent is, protecting the Princess is the primary duty."

Feng Fuce’s features, as cold as ink, carried a calm demeanor.

He simply said calmly, "The opponent was rather aggressive, so I directly made a move and killed him."

Eunuch Quan Xi moved the stool silently, unable to suppress a slight tremble.

After all, the one killed was Minister Meng’s brother-in-law!

Bai Xilie showed no concern: "What’s the big deal about the killing? Let alone you, even if I knew he dared to treat Zhi’er like that, he wouldn’t escape death either!"

Bai Xilie picked up the impeachment letter from Minister of War, Meng Chang, from the pile of memorials.

He spoke with displeasure in his tone: "This Meng Chang is really muddle-headed, speaking out so rashly without clarifying the situation."

"I’ll take care of his impeachment against you, make sure he dares not open his mouth carelessly again."

Listening to Bai Xilie’s words, Feng Fuce remained unmoved.

As if the Emperor’s grace had nothing to do with him.

Feng Fuce’s eyes were dark and deep, seemingly indifferent, with a hint of laziness.

However, the inadvertent chill emanating from him was like a sharp blade, sending chills down one’s spine.

"Let him be, they want the body but refuse to come to Xiuluo Guard to claim it."

"Three days later, if they still don’t come, I’ll treat the body as meat and feed it to the dogs."

Feng Fuce’s tone was cold, combined with his pleasant voice, making one overlook the cruelty in his words.

Bai Xilie had no objections to this: "You decide then."

After speaking, Bai Xilie smiled: "It’s rare that Zhi’er thinks highly of you; today she was afraid you’d be punished and almost cried pleading for leniency."

"This child," the Emperor immersed himself in his paternal affection, smiling and shaking his head, "in matters like this, I’m naturally on your side."

It was only at this moment that Feng Fuce’s extraordinarily handsome face showed a slight fluctuation.

"She cried?" He furrowed his long brows imperceptibly.

Bai Xilie said, "Almost, she thought you were really going to be punished."

"Zhi’er just came to my side, with no friends around except family. It’s clear she enjoys playing with you."

"Just now, she even told me she wants you to accompany her this afternoon to go to the street and buy pastries, which shows she trusts you a lot."

Bai Xilie smiled: "However, I knew you were busy, so I declined on your behalf. This afternoon, you are to..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Feng Fuce suddenly interrupted.

"I’m free this afternoon."

Bai Xilie’s smile stiffened and then gradually faded.

"Weren’t you going to investigate the lead regarding Second Aunt at Prince Kang’s Mansion?" The Emperor asked coldly.

Feng Fuce’s gaze steadied: "We need to wait for Prince Kang to recall who he went to dinner with at that time."

"So, I’m free this afternoon."

Bai Xilie looked Feng Fuce up and down with a puzzled expression.

This child was indeed picked up by Bai Xilie.

He noticed that Feng Fuce had extraordinary talents, spoke little but executed tasks straightforwardly and efficiently.

Thus, he kept him by his side all the time.

Bai Xilie rarely saw him leave Xiuluo Guard other than for official duties.

Feng Fuce’s sudden agreement made Bai Xilie slightly vigilant as a father.

However, after thinking for a while, Bai Xilie felt it wasn’t a big deal.

Feng Fuce harbored no malicious intent, and with him by the daughter’s side, it was as if an intimidating beast was with her.

Making petty thieves not dare to come forth.

Thinking of this, Bai Xilie’s expression relaxed, nodding with a smile, "In that case, once Zhi’er wakes, take her to the street to buy pastries."

"Make sure to return to the palace before evening."
