Ruofeng rescued Yanyu and returned to the Princess's residence at midnight. Su Changfeng sent her to Shaoguang Courtyard, and the maid guarding the gate went in to tell the Princess that she would only let Yanyu in.

At noon the next day, after having breakfast with Su Yunxuan and Ye Zixi in Jinggu Garden, Su Changfeng went to Shaoguang Courtyard again to ask to see An Lan. The maid told him that An Lan and Yan Yu had already left the house, and she didn't know what they were doing.

The matter of persuading An Lan to take his men to leave Fenglan Capital as soon as possible had to be put aside for the time being. Su Changfeng returned to Jinggu Garden to prepare for entering the palace at noon.

During the process, after Ruoying sent Ayi back, Su Changfeng took out the token and handed it to him, ordering him to hurry up and deal with and transfer all the shops and properties under his name in Fenglandu.

It is said that An Lan and Yan Yu left the Princess's Mansion early in the morning and went to the Xingyue Pavilion built by Feng Yu.

An Lan went to the palace to see the Queen Mother yesterday, and learned all the truth about the massacre of the entire Wen family during the argument with the Queen Mother. After Yan Yu came back, the two of them decided to seek justice for the 36 lives of the Wen family before leaving Fenglan Capital.

The Meng family must pay the price.

Although Feng Yuqi had killed Meng Xixi last night and thrown her body into Prince De's Mansion, the other members of the Meng family were still at large. They needed to find Feng Yuqi to get the information of all the members of the Meng family.

Someone wanted to help Feng Dezhe get rid of another lackey, so Feng Yuqi would naturally not refuse. However, after being secretly surprised for a moment when he saw Yan Yu, he readily handed the booklet to An Lan, on the condition that An Lan would not hold him accountable for arresting Yan Yu privately.

An Lan agreed, but said that if Feng Yuqi dared to offend the Princess's Mansion again, she would pursue the matter and file a complaint with the Emperor.

Anlan and Yanyu left, Fengyuqi called Tianqu and asked Yanyu what was going on. He planned to keep Yanyu in prison for a few more days and never let Anlan leave Fenglan Capital with his men.

Tian Qu didn't know what was going on either, so he hurriedly ordered people to go to the place where Yan Yu was held. When the two were wondering who had rescued Yan Yu, someone from the palace came and announced that the emperor had ordered King Hao to enter the palace immediately.

Feng Yuqi groped his way into the imperial study, limping. When the emperor saw him like that, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly replaced the inkstone in his hand with a folding paper and threw it at him fiercely.

Feng Yuqi did not dodge, but took the blow head on, then he lifted his robe, knelt down, and greeted in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

The emperor stared at him, still furious as he shouted, "You are becoming more and more rampant now. This morning, you arrested the princess's men in front of her mansion, and in the afternoon, you intercepted Feng Deze's carriage on the street and beat him half to death. Is there really no one in Fenglan City that you can be afraid of?"

"The eldest princess has agreed not to make a fuss about it. As for that bastard Feng Dezhe, it's his own fault." Feng Yuqi argued righteously.

"An Lan doesn't care? Why did the Queen Mother come to me so early in the morning to report it? You said Feng De Ze arrested your sister, but did he get any evidence? If you don't have the ability to get evidence, you should have kept it to yourself instead of taking revenge in private."

The emperor said angrily, throwing a pile of memorials on the table at Feng Yuqi again, and said angrily: "Look for yourself, these are the memorials submitted this morning to accuse you of disregarding the law and hurting the prince privately."

"I have reminded you so many times to act in a methodical manner and not to be too cruel, but you just can't change over the years. You are so willful and reckless that even if I support you and do so much for you, it is difficult to convince the public. Do you still want the position of Crown Prince?"

There were more than ten memorials, and most of them were directed at Feng Yuqi.

Feng Yuqi's expression did not change, he was used to it.

He still stood straight, but tilted his head in dissatisfaction and said, "If I hadn't acted ruthlessly and let those people know how powerful I am and be afraid of me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be alive today."

The emperor choked and stared at the black cloth covering the Fengyu wall with narrowed eyes.

This was the first time that Feng Yuqi spoke so bluntly in front of him.

In the past, no matter how angry he was at Feng Yuqi and how he reminded Feng Yuqi to be more restrained, Feng Yuqi would always keep silent with a stubborn look on her face.

"What? Are you blaming me for not protecting you well?" The emperor sat down and asked in a softer tone.

When Feng Zihao abandoned his family and country, he did deliberately neglect and make things difficult for Feng Zihao's son Feng Yuqi for several years.

But so what? Compared with the affection and hope he had placed on Feng Zihao, those few years could not quell the anger and disappointment in his heart.

It had only been a month since Yingbai abandoned him, and now their son had abandoned him again. No one could understand the loneliness and anger in his heart.

He even sent people to hunt down that rebellious son for several years. If he hadn't discovered that there were others secretly hunting down Hao'er besides him, he would never have stopped to keep him safe.

"I dare not." Feng Yuqi knelt down and bowed. The emperor was always moody, and his true nature was exposed when he was really angry. This change in tone made him unpredictable and vaguely uneasy.

Sure enough, the next moment, the emperor angrily questioned again: "Who told you to go look for your father privately? If you hadn't exposed his whereabouts, would Hao'er have died? The punishment I gave you that day was too light."

"Yes." Feng Yuqi crouched down and did not stand up, his face full of dissatisfaction.

The emperor said this when he entered the palace to meet him on the first day after returning to Fenglan Capital, and punished him to kneel in the cold wind for a whole night.

He was wrong, but he also did not completely agree with what the emperor said.

What was wrong with him looking for the father who abandoned him when he was less than ten years old and never appeared again?

His mistake was that he was not vigilant enough and failed to protect the person.

The ones who were truly wrong and who really deserved to die were the group of people who hunted down his father, the ones who framed and destroyed his father!

Seeing that he didn't look up or say anything, the emperor guessed what he was thinking. He was so angry that he picked up the inkstone on the table and threw it at him for the third time.

Feng Yuqi still did not dodge, the inkstone rubbed against his brow bone, leaving a thin cut, and finally blood was seen.

Blood dripped onto the ground, but Feng Yuqi didn't even raise his hands, still keeping his head lowered and motionless.

The emperor slowly clenched his fist and retracted his hand. After sitting back on the dragon chair and letting out a long breath, he pinched his brows and said, "Prime Minister Shen came to see me alone after the court session. I solemnly remind you again that you must not harm Prince Yun Sheng without my permission."

"Why?" Feng Yuqi suddenly raised his head, "Why is the emperor so protective of that sickly person?"

He really didn't understand. He had analyzed the words to that extent, and the emperor not only didn't kill the sickly man, but also repeatedly forbade him to hurt the sickly man.

Last night, even his grandfather, Prime Minister Shen, seemed to be persuaded, so why was the emperor so persistent?

Feng Yuqi stared at the emperor, trying to find out what was going on. However, the emperor's fingers on his forehead froze, and then he let go. He sat up straight and asked angrily, "What? My words are useless to you?"

At noon, when Su Changfeng and Su Yunxuan were led to the imperial study, Feng Yuqi was kneeling in the yard with blood on his cheeks.

Seeing him like that, Su Yunxuan couldn't help but step forward and ask, "You still can't see with your eyes? Why are you still covering them with cloth?"

Feng Yuqi snorted and turned away without paying any attention to her. The eunuch who led the way urged her to move forward, so she had no choice but to move forward with Su Changfeng.

The two of them stood in front of the door of the imperial study. The eunuch went in to pass the message and came out, saying that the emperor asked the two of them to go in separately.
