Chapter 1564: Qi Qin'er was On the Verge of Death I
Not knowing why, after Qi Fang felt Feng Ruqing's strength, he felt suppressed. He seemed surprised.
However...
At such a crucial moment, a voice came from behind as it ripped through the sky and into everyone's ears.
"Stop!"
At this moment...
All the secret guards were stunned. However, they did not put away the swords in their hands as they stood still, awaiting Qi Fang's orders.
Qi Fang glanced sideways and saw a nervous face.
The beautiful lady no longer had the elegance she had before. There was a nervousness and anger that could be seen in her eyes.
"I am asking you to stop. Who allowed you all to raise your swords against Maiden Feng? All of you, stop!" The empress was so angry that she was screaming.
All the secret guards were slightly stunned as they looked at Qi Fang for a signal. None of them put away their swords.
Qi Fang pondered for a moment, raised his hand and said coldly, "Step down."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The group of secret guards obediently put away their swords. However, before they managed to leave, they heard the young maiden's casual voice.
"When you want to attack me, you appear, and when you want to leave, you just leave?"
Every step she took forward made the air increasingly heavy. In the gentle breeze, her red dress was dancing. She was so stunning that she could bring a city to its knees.
The empress immediately understood the meaning behind Feng Ruqing's words as she turned her head to the side and looked at the group of secret guards. "With Maiden Feng's identity and status, how could you all even think of attacking her? Now, no matter how Maiden Feng wishes to treat you all, none of you are allowed to fight back. Those who fight back will be chased out of the palace!"
The expressions of the secret guards changed as they immediately looked at Qi Fang.
"Your Majesty!"
Qi Fang's face darkened as his voice carried a tinge of helplessness. "Empress, it is I who had commanded them..."
"You, shut up!"
The empress raised her gaze. Her voice was not loud, however, it was like a heavy hammer ruthlessly knocking at Qi Fang's heart.
Ever since the empress entered the palace, all her actions were dignified. This was the first time that she had spoken such heavy words. It was obvious that she was truly angered.
"I don't care how much misunderstandings you had toward Maiden Feng, but now, you are all mistreating Maiden Feng. I cannot ignore this!"
She used to be as indiscriminate as well.
Even more, she had almost completely offended Feng Ruqing.
However, she was a person with a good memory. Some mistakes could only be made once. She was not one to make the same mistakes again.
What was more important was that now, only Feng Ruqing could save Qin'er.
If she did not allow Feng Ruqing to vent her grievances properly, she did not even dare to mention this matter, out of fear that Feng Ruqing would develop ill feelings and no longer want to treat her daughter...
"Empress!" Qi Fang frowned. "You are tired. Go and take a rest."
The empress ignored Qi Fang as she looked at Feng Ruqing pleadingly. There was even some anxiousness in her eyes.
Feng Ruqing turned her gaze and coincidentally met with the empress's eyes. She stopped in her tracks. She pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you looking for me in a hurry?"
Was it Little Fatty who was about to die, or was it Qi Qin'er who was about to die? Otherwise, the empress would not be so anxious.
The empress suppressed her nervousness and worry. "Maiden Feng, do you want to vent your grievances first or follow me first..."
Feng Ruqing squinted as she glanced coldly at the secret guards who did not dare to move. In the end, she turned around and calmly said, "Then, I will follow you first. There will be other opportunities in the future to settle the scores. I will leave my spirit beasts here for now. If they lose even a single strand of hair, I will annihilate the entire Wu Shang City!"
