156 The Infuriated Princess Iii (1/2)
Feng Ruqing ignored him and asked, ”How long will it take for you to get the wisteria vine?”
”Wisteria vine grows in harsh conditions, and it takes at least two to three months to get them. But don't worry princess, you have our Paramount Token, I'll find it for you no matter what.”
”Okay,” Feng Ruqing muttered before saying, ”Bring me the other spirit herbs first.”
”Please wait for a moment, Princess. I'll go get it right now.”

Feng Ruqing had beaten Tan Shuangshuang up in the spirit herbs shop. It took only a while before the news spread like wildfire.
At the same time, the imperial court was in total chaos.
Feng Tianyu looked down at the mad Tan Lin while rubbing the temples of his aching head. ”Grand Tutor Tan, I believe there's a reason why Qing'er beat Tan Shuangshuang in public.”
Grand Tutor Tan turned livid with rage. ”Your Majesty, what the princess has done throughout all these years is well known, is there anything that she can't do? That day, she had already whipped Shuang'er until she was black and blue, and now she has ordered someone to give her three hundred strokes!”
”It's three hundred strokes, not thirty strokes! My daughter's weak, how can she bear with this kind of torture?” Tan Lin wept bitterly. He couldn't help feeling sorry for his daughter.
He hated Feng Ruqing's cruelty and also Liu Yuchen for not being able to protect his daughter, allowing his daughter to suffer such agony!
Feng Tianyu frowned and scolded, ”Grand Tutor Tan, why then did I hear that it was Tan Shuangshuang who provoked Qing'er first?”
”This is sheer nonsense!” Tan Lin was enraged and retorted, ”How can I not know my daughter Shuang'er? She's gentle, kind, and has never started a quarrel. It's always Princess who would not let go of her! The princess has even chased her into Paramount spirit herbs shop to beat her up. Your Majesty, if you still refuse to punish the princess, it will certainly disappoint us, the people and the world!”
