Chapter 1113

Tearing Away Your Skin

Yu Qianyin saw Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianhua off and thought that she had passed this obstacle. Even though Feng Yuheng did not act very close to her, it was not to the point of being distant. This face of hers was not considered perfect, but no one could point out any big issues, she was confident about her skills in making human skin masks.

She was still dreaming this good dream, overcoming this obstacle of Feng Yuheng, she relaxed somewhat and was prepared to summon a servant to serve some desserts to eat. After all, it had been a long time since she ate Chun Palace’s desserts and she should look for some memories from the past.

However, she had not even summoned anyone, suddenly, the house door was pushed open with force from outside, with the sound of a “clang”, Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianhua left and returned. One was filled with arrogance, one had a pampering expression on his face, letting the former do whatever she wanted.

Yu Qianyin’s heart clenched, and she immediately thought of that year in the suburbs of the capital, Xuan Tianhua protected Feng Yuheng just like this, and to vent his anger, he even tied her to a rope and dragged her under the horse. She had a narrow escape from death, based on her identity as Zong Sui’s Princess, based on the fact that Da Shun did not want to completely sour their relationship with Zong Sui, she was able to preserve her life. Remembering that time, Xuan Tianhua had such an expression on his face, other than anger and hatred, most of it was his pampering of Feng Yuheng, that level of pampering did not lose to the Ninth Prince Xuan Tianming at all.

Yu Qianyin suddenly felt that she was really stupid, Feng Xiangrong had never been her love rival, even if Xuan Tianhua wanted to marry her, she was only a replacement. Talking about the person who truly entered Xuan Tianhua’s heart, other than Feng Yuheng, who else could it be? This was an answer she knew many years ago, but she did not want to stand aside and watch Feng Xiangrong marry into Chun Palace. If there must be a replacement, couldn’t she be it?

“Second Sister, Your Highness the Seventh Prince, why have both of you returned?” Forcefully holding back her complex emotions, Yu Qianyin spoke, imitating Xiangrong’s voice, imitating Xiangrong’s timidness and quiet personality, but her eyes were staring at the whip in Feng Yuheng’s hand, already having a bad feeling.

“Third Sister, Older Sister has not seen you for many days, we only spoke for a while and I suddenly missed you a lot after walking a few steps outside. Therefore, I came back to see you again.” She approached as she spoke, then suddenly reached out pinched the face of “Xiangrong” in front of her, “Why do I feel that Third Sister has gotten skinnier? You better not have starved during the past few days, come come come, let Older Sister feel you properly.”

Listening to this point, seeing Feng Yuheng’s cold gaze despite the fact that she was smiling, how could Yu Qianyin not understand what had happened! But she did not know how the other party was able to see through it, it was only a short interaction, Feng Yuheng could be this sure that she was a fake? Was it a little too arbitrary of a decision? What if she was wrong? She still had this face after all, how could she bear to take action?

However, Feng Yuheng could take action, not only could she take action, she even did it harshly. But before whipping, what she did first was slide her hand towards the edge of “Xiangrong”’s cheek, not caring that the other party was dodging backwards with fear on her face, her hand constantly moved around to search. Finally she stopped one inch above the ear, then her lips curved upwards in a smile, and she spoke in a sinister tone: “So it was here. Yu Qianyin, we have not seen each other for a few years, your disguise skills have improved! Unfortunately, even though your skills are good, humans are a little stupid and are unable to escape the eyes of This Princess.”

As she spoke, seeing Feng Yuheng grit her teeth, she applied force in her hand and fiercely tore off that human skin mask. Because the force used was huge, even a patch of skin on Yu Qianyin’s face was torn off, just on her right cheek, a patch of skin the size of a fist had blood on it and followed the human skin mask in being separated from her, causing Yu Qianyin to shout out loudly with an “Ow” in pain.

But immediately after that, she realised that she was in huge trouble, she wanted to escape, even if she had to barge out forcefully, she wanted to bash out a path of survival. However, how could she escape so easily, she used all the force in her body to push Feng Yuheng aside, but there was still Xuan Tianhua behind! The closest “intimate contact” she had with this man, was actually him grabbing her collar then dragging her in front of Feng Yuheng.

Yu Qianyin was afraid and in pain, she wanted to use her hand to cover her injured face, but once her finger touched the wound, she cried out in pain. She heard Feng Yuheng speak again: “Yu Qianyin, that year, Zong Sui used a large amount of treasures in exchange for your life, why do you not know how to treasure it? Your life is so expensive and you delivered it over to Da Shun so easily, it seems like Zong Sui’s treasury is still plentiful!”

“Feng Yuheng!” Yu Qianyin saw that she could not escape and decided to harden her heart and face her, glaring over with aggression, asking: “Didn’t you marry Da Shun’s Ninth Prince? Why are you still hitching around with His Highness the Seventh Prince? You slut, aren’t you afraid of retribution?”

Pa!

A whip came attacked suddenly and Feng Yuheng’s reply also arrived: “Whatever Grandaunt does, do you have the right to manage me?” After she said this, she shook the whip in her hand, saying coldly: “Punishing you here is really boring. Yu Qianyin, you were the one who disguised as me and abducted the Eighth Prince from the imperial palace, right? That young boy was also abducted by you? With Xiangrong in your hands now as well, say, how do I settle this debt with you? How am I supposed to make you let them all go?”

Yu Qianyin’s eyes shone and she finally found an opening for her to escape, she told Feng Yuheng agitatedly: “You want to exchange those people, that is doable! Use me to exchange them! Let me go and I will naturally have my subordinates let them go!”

“But if I try to torture you into giving information, would you say where your lair is?” She looked at Yu Qianyin in contemplation, but her gaze was as poisonous a scorpion.

Yu Qianyin grew more fearful, but she was shook her head in determination, telling Feng Yuheng: “Impossible! If I say you, you will definitely not let me go, you will kill me! Therefore, it has to be an exchange! Use me to exchange for those three people, Feng Yuheng, it is a bargain for all of you.”

“Nonono.” Feng Yuheng did not think so, “You did so many things to make me detest you, this time, I do not have plans to let you go free. You are correct, whether you speak or not, I will kill you, but not right now.” After she spoke, she turned and looked at Xuan Tianhua, asking: “Seventh Brother, do you think it’s good if I hang her at the east city gate? Let their people look, Zong Sui’s Princess is now in our hands, then we’ll see if the other party can hand the people over.”

Xuan Tianhua was still drifting clouds and wind, it was as if what Feng Yuheng said was something normal, as if he was being asked if the clothes she wore were nice. Therefore, he said leisurely: “You can do whatever you want, Seventh Brother will just help you.”

Once Yu Qianyin heard that she would be hung off the city gates, she shouted loudly in fright: “Feng Yuheng, are you crazy? Ignoring that Eighth Prince, your younger sister and that child are still with us, treating me like this, aren’t you afraid that my people will kill them?”

Feng Yuheng did not understand: “Eh? Aren’t you Zong Sui’s Princess? Those people should be loyal to you, right? If they can even abandon your life, Yu Qianyin, you can only submit to fate. And my sister and that child...... they can only submit to fate as well.”

Yu Qianyin was truly afraid now, Feng Yuheng was literally using the method of not caring about life, she was using Feng Xiangrong and that child as a gamble, once she lost, both sides would suffer damage!

No! She thought again, Feng Yuheng would not suffer much damage, one younger sister, and it was even a younger sister of a different mother, who knew how deep her feelings were for this. As for that child, she heard that it was just a bastard and was not related to the Feng family at all. But she was different, she was Zong Sui’s Princess, golden branch and jade leaves, how could her life be balanced with those people below?

Yu Qianyin understood everything, but she did not have any freedom to decide. Feng Yuheng made a decision to hang her off the gate tower and no matter what conditions she raised, the other party only shook her head and have already summoned two maids who knew martial arts to come forward to tie her up.

She was tied up very quickly and the two maids walked at the front carrying her, then she heard Feng Yuheng shouting from behind: “Go over in my imperial carriage, you must tie her on the east city gate, His Highness the Seventh Prince and I will follow after.”

The ones carrying Yu Qianyin out of the palace were naturally Wang Chuan and Huang Quan, Ban Zou even showed up and followed as a guard. Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianhua walked behind, she kept her whip and told Xuan Tianhua: “I have been thinking, whipping her to death like this is really not worth it, our relationship with Zong Sui will fall apart soon, and there is no need to treat this princess nicely. Seventh Brother, do not worry, I will not really be so cold blooded to not care about Xiangrong’s safety at all. Even if the other party imitates us, it is fine, as long as they can bring Xiangrong and appear, I have 100% confidence in rescuing her safely.”

Xuan Tianhua did not suspect her of having this ability, he smiled and did not say anything. The two left the palace together and boarded Xuan Tianhua’s imperial carriage. When the imperial carriage drove to the east city gate, Xuan Tianming had also arrived in time. The trio looked up, seeing that Yu Qianyin was already hung up by the soldiers guarding the city, dangling her outside the city wall. That woman was shouting in fright and there were also soldiers shouting above: “It’s no use even if you shout! You better no try to struggle anymore, if the rope snaps, you will fall to your death.”

The citizens in the city did not know what happened, they only saw a woman being hung up on the east city gate, then saw two princes and one princess rush over. The people gathered in one place and discussed greatly, but no one was able to guess the truth of this matter.

Feng Yuheng was also lazy to explain. After all, this matter was related to Zong Sui, once the citizens knew that Zong Sui caused trouble and war was going to occur, panic might rise amongst the people. Therefore they only sent people to tell the citizens that this was an offender in the imperial court, hanging her here was to warn others, do not go against the imperial court, do not go against the government, and do not go against their own country Da Shun.

Just like this, Yu Qianyin was hung on the city walls for two days, the strong sunlight in the autumn daytime shone on her until she wanted to die, the cold wind in the autumn night blew at her until she wanted to die. In order to keep her conscious, Feng Yuheng frequently instructed people to use a long tin pot to reach over and feed her some water. She was kept alive but the part of her face which had skin torn off started to rot slowly.
