Chapter 26: Please straighten my crooked neck
<hr>
h.e.l.lo Everyone! So Happy New Year again from me, just in case you don’t read ‘The End Of The World’s Poisonous Mom And Monster Baby’ (WHICH YOU SHOULD) and did not see my new year greetings. Just wanted to let you guys know that since the holidays are over, I am back to working full time and am also taking three courses. Thus, it’s going to be a full load! Since this is the case, releases will most likely be as set on the schedule and be once a week. However, I will still do sponsored chapters, etc.
Next thing to mention is please hit subscribe on the bottom of the page to get email notifications of new chapter releases on this website! I have changed from using the one from jetpack since it wasn’t working as intended.
Finally, since this is the start of the month, go hit up my Patreon to get early releases for the entire month!

Next Chapter>
A night of tossing from side to side, Feng Tingye practiced what he preached and demonstrated to Xia Yuqing what it really meant for a gentleman to not go back on one’s words. The whole night was like a potsticker getting tossed and turned continuously, only when it was very late into the night, then did it finally become silent, so she was able to lie down and tearfully fall asleep.
Right before she lost the last little bit of her consciousness, within Xia Yuqing’s mind was just one thought: I can’t possibly continue withstanding these days! This old woman has to leave the palace!
As darkness fell and enshrouded the whole world, a dim light from the gentle moonlight seeped in through the window. Dense smoke filled the air within, with a tinge of mysteriousness.
Feng Tingye was gently caressing the blue b.u.t.terfly birthmark on Xia Yuqing’s smooth shoulders with a gloomy face that was difficult to read.
Suddenly, from outside the palace hall came a quiet knock on the door. His pupils narrowed, At this hour, were it not for an urgent matter, they certainly would not send people to bother me. Is it possible that…
Slowly standing up and putting on his clothes, before he departed he didn’t forget to help tuck the quilt back in for the deeply sleeping person. Gazing at her serene face sleeping, completely opposite of her usual childish immature nature, Feng Tingye couldn’t help but lift the corners of his mouth and smile. Then turned around and left.
“What’s the matter?” Right when he left the palace hall, Feng Tingye’s tender smile swiftly converted to his usual cold, detached expression he had in front of his civil and military officials.
“Informing Master, the Grand Tutor’s residence has met with a mishap.”
Feng Tingye arched his eyebrows. The obscure guard hurried over and leaned close to Feng Tingye’s ear muttering a few sentences.
His complexion heavily fell. A short moment after, his lips lifted up in a sneer. “Finally couldn’t hold back that temper, huh?”
Crash—— A sharp sound broke the midnight tranquility. Within Rui w.a.n.g Fei’s [Prince Rui’s wife] chamber, lying down on Gui Fei’s [Gui Fei = senior concubine; imperial consort; basically Prince Rui’s wife’s chair] chair, neck somewhat tilted to one side, the man’s face was red through and through. Glaring with his tenacious tiger eyes at the delicate maiden in front of him, he was practically spouting out fire.
“This is your so called strategy? Isn’t it good now? All those people that were helping you have now landed in Yan Ran, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d’s hands. As long as they slightly loosen their mouths, perhaps early tomorrow morning, Your Majesty’s imperial army will be able to come to this royal’s mansion door and cause everyone at this royal’s mansion to be eliminated in one swoop. All the scheming done these past few years, wouldn’t it all have been a waste of time? Is that the sincerity from Xue Country? To dispatch some useless people to harm this king’s plans, are you guys here to help this king or are you helping Feng Tingye that b.a.s.t.a.r.d? Useless, you guys are all f.u.c.king useless!”
Jiang Zhaorou seamlessly dodged to the side to avoid the object that Prince Rui hurled over. Usually with eyes that felt like they were as deep as a reservoir of water, a wisp of a cold and gloomy light shone out. “w.a.n.g Ye [w.a.n.g Ye = prince; marquis; n.o.bleman] you don’t have to worry about these matters. This matter is not as bad as w.a.n.g Ye imagined. The people dispatched by Xue Country are all specially trained death soldiers. Being captured is probably just a careless mistake, I trust they will be able to think of a method to escape. Even if they weren’t able to, with the practices of a death warrior, even if they were to die they will definitely not leak out anything about w.a.n.g Ye’s matters. Let’s not forget that in this world there is nothing more reliable than the silence of a dead person.”
