Chapter 262: Death of the Fifth Prince
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
If Little Yuanxi wanted him dead, she would take action no matter what.
Feng Yuanxi looked bewildered for a moment, then answered in a childlike voice, “I do, but, the Fifth Prince captured many young ladies. He caused them a lot of suffering. Yuanxi thinks those young ladies should want to seek revenge personally. Mother, why don’t we hand the Fifth Prince over to them?”
Gu Qingluan smiled, “Alright, let’s listen to our obedient Yuanxi.”
Feng Yuanxi blushed at her address, his eyes shining with joy like black grapes.
“Crown Prince, do you have any objections?” Gu Qingluan turned to Qitian You.
Qitian You glanced at Qifei He, who was keeping his distance, and couldn’t help but smile bitterly. With his biggest support not even giving him any backing, could he dare to object?
The Fifth Prince’s actions didn’t only harm Gu Qingluan; they also affected Royal Highness Lan and his child.
Even if they were in the Imperial Court, their father wouldn’t dare to object.
“Miss Gu, please proceed.”
“Crown Prince, you can’t just abandon me like this! Father asked you to save me!” Qitian Yu said in urgency.
Qitian You averted his face.
Seeing that he really wasn’t planning to rescue him, Qitian Yu’s hopes were dashed, and he no longer hid his ugly, monstrous face. His expression turned ferocious as he looked at Qitian You with hatred, “Fine, I understand now! You deliberately did this! You’re afraid that if I go to Qiankun Academy, I’ll become even better than you and steal your position as the heir! Qitian You, you despicable and shameless little man!”
Qitian You turned his face back with a grim expression, “Shut up! Have you not realized your own mistakes at all? Even now, you’re stubborn!”
“I spit at you! You’re such a hypocrite!” Qitian Yu’s words fell on deaf ears. His mind was overwhelmed with a sense of betrayal.
His elder brother had malicious intentions, and his imperial uncle watched from the sidelines.
And there was this woman!
She used to claim to admire him, but in the end, she had an affair with another man and cuckolded him!
He couldn’t accept it!
No way could he accept this!
Crazed madness flickered in Qitian Yu’s eyes, and he suddenly lunged toward Feng Yuanxi, who was closest.
“Yuanxi, be careful!”
Gu Qingluan quickly pulled her son behind her and simultaneously sent out a cold glint from her left hand.
Feng Tianlan, standing nearby, frowned and almost simultaneously took action.
Two attacks followed closely and landed on Qitian Yu.
Qitian Yu was sent flying, falling to the ground like a broken doll.
He lost his breath!
Once Feng Yuanxi was confirmed to be unharmed, Gu Qingluan walked forward and found that Qitian Yu had already passed away, but her heart was not free of lingering resentment.
This scumbag, even facing death, he still hadn’t learned his lesson and harbored intentions to harm her son.
It was best to get rid of such a troublesome person early on for peace of mind.
To guard against any tricks, Gu Qingluan struck a few more times to ensure that Qitian Yu was beyond help.
If she hadn’t seen his transformation with her own eyes, she wouldn’t have recognized the body as Qitian Yu’s.
Looking at the pitiful state of the Fifth Prince, Qitian You felt a chill run down his spine.
Thank goodness he didn’t try to stop her.
Otherwise, he might have ended up just as pitiful.
Seeing that Gu Qingluan hadn’t stopped, Qitian You forced himself to speak, “Miss Gu, please calm down. The Fifth Prince got what he deserved, but if we don’t leave his body intact, it would be hard to explain to the Emperor. Perhaps you can stop now?”
Gu Qingluan gave him a subtle glance, sending a shiver down Qitian You’s spine.
“You can be honest in front of the Emperor. If he has any inquiries, he can approach me. I won’t run away.”
After saying that, she walked back to Yuanxi’s side and took his little hand. “Little Yuanxi, let’s go.”
“Wait.”
Suddenly, Qifei He spoke up.
Gu Qingluan paused in her steps and turned to look at Qifei He, her peach-colored eyes slightly cold, “Is there something you need, Prince He?”
