Now reading: Chapter 207 Why choose this time to poison her? from Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage, a Romance novel by Half a Lifetime of Recklessness.

Consort Jin ca to bring her bird’s nest soup.

What difference was there between this and a weasel paying a New Year’s visit to a chicken?

Even if Chu Qianli were foolish, she knew that this bird’s nest soup was certainly not a good thing.

Unsolicited favors are a sure sign of treachery.

"Consort Jin, Your Highness, I have urgent matters and must leave. Please excuse ."

Chu Qianli didn’t even glance at the bowl of bird’s nest soup as she quickly made her way to the door.

But Consort Jin blocked the doorway, obstructing her path.

"How dare you, with your insignificant title of a young miss, and not even a side consort at that, put on airs in front of ?"

"Sorry, Consort Jin, Your Highness, but you are the one causing trouble right now. When have I ever put on airs in front of you?"

Was this not the pot calling the kettle black?

They co knocking on your door to stir up trouble, yet expect you to greet them with a smile?

Consort Jin glared at her, displeased, "My imperial son has placed you under house arrest. Where do you think you can go?"

"Where I can and cannot go probably has nothing to do with you, Consort Jin."

"I know you are arrogant and defiant, lady, but I did not co here to argue with you."

Consort Jin still blocked the door, confident that as long as she stood there, Chu Qianli wouldn’t be able to fly away.

She said coldly, "Now in this residence, you have fallen out of favor, and it’s your sister, Chu Huaiyu, who is favored."

Chu Qianli, suppressing the urge to push her over, looked at her expressionlessly.

She was indeed in a hurry to leave, but she also understood that the more anxious she appeared, the less likely Consort Jin would let her go.

She still needed Yexuan’s help to leave, and if she got into a dispute with Consort Jin now, he would be even less likely to let her go.

For now, she had to endure!

"Your Highness, what exactly do you want by coming to see so late at night?"

"I ca just to bring you a bowl of bird’s nest soup. Didn’t I hear that you have been injured before?"

Consort Jin glanced at her, her gaze subconsciously shifting towards Chu Qianli’s abdon.

Chu Qianli didn’t know what she was looking at. What was there to see in her stomach?

Could it be that she had recently gained weight, forming a spare tire?

Chu Qianli couldn’t resist and looked down at herself.

Her waist was still slim, not a bit of extra fat could be seen.

We’re both won, what’s there to see in such a waistline?

Chu Qianli found it unremarkable and casually said, "My health is very good, thank you for your concern, Consort Jin. However, I really need to go out now, please step aside."

She did not want a conflict, but that didn’t an she was willing to be pushed around.

If her boundaries were crossed, she wouldn’t mind the conflict.

"Heh, you must be so proud. Don’t you know that if you want to be the prince’s main wife, you should curry favor with those close to him?"

She might be Yexuan’s foster mother, but didn’t she understand the principle that blood is thicker than water?

Chu Qianli found it laughable: "Not to ntion whether or not you are truly so important to the prince, let’s say, for the sake of argunt, that I don’t have the slightest desire to beco Yexuan’s wife."

So, curry favor?

Was she overthinking it?

Consort Jin’s face darkened.

This wretched girl, impervious to both soft and hard tactics, was so difficult to deal with!

"I don’t care! I personally brought the bird’s nest soup here to nd our relationship for Xuanxuan’s sake!"

Consort Jin was determined, standing in the door, as if her heart was set in iron.

"If you want to stay in the Prince Residence, you will eat this bird’s nest soup! From now on, I might even make things a bit easier for you!"

"We’ll live in peace; you’ll go your way, and I’ll go mine, without interfering with each other!"

Consort Jin took the bowl of bird’s nest soup from the maid’s tray.

"Xuanxuan asked to fix things between us; don’t think for a mont that I actually want to please you! If you don’t eat it, you’ll be disrespecting Xuanxuan!"

Consort Jin was well aware of Chu Qianli’s recent house arrest by Yexuan.

She knew that if Chu Qianli wanted to leave, she definitely needed Xuanxuan’s permission.

Now, she didn’t dare to clash with Xuanxuan, otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to leave the house.

Therefore, using Feng Yexuan as an excuse, Consort Jin indeed firmly grasped onto Chu Qianli’s weak point.

Chu Qianli looked at the bowl of bird’s nest soup pushed in front of her.

If it really was Feng Yexuan’s idea, she would eat it.

But, why did she feel that sothing was off?

"Why would the Prince suddenly ask Consort Jin to nd our relationship?"

Before, wasn’t he utterly indifferent towards her?

Looking at this, it didn’t seem like Feng Yexuan’s style of doing things.

The more she thought about it, the more it didn’t sit right with her.

"Your Highness, this bird’s nest soup, it isn’t poisoned, is it?"

Consort Jin’s face darkened, a fleeting trace of unease flashed across her eyes, but it vanished in an instant.

Although it flashed by swiftly, it did not escape Chu Qianli’s eyes.

There was indeed sothing wrong with this bird’s nest soup.

"Tell , why do you want to poison and harm ?" Chu Qianli’s voice suddenly deepened.

Suddenly, she stepped forward, closing in on Consort Jin!

Caught off guard, Consort Jin was forced to step back two paces.

Chu Qianli seized this opportunity to exit the room, dodging Consort Jin’s obstruction.

Consort Jin was so angry her face turned green!

"You lowly woman, how dare you slander like this!"

"I was rely asking casually, but I do not care for bird’s nest soup. Next ti, Consort Jin, please bother to bring so pastries, they may be more to my taste."

Being able to leave was enough for her; she was in a hurry to return to the Duke Residence and had no desire to entangle further with Consort Jin.

Chu Qianli turned and walked towards the gate of Qianyun Pavilion.

Consort Jin, in a rage, followed a couple of steps and shouted, "Do you think if you go to Xuanxuan now, he will pay attention to you? At his side, there is already a Chu Huaiyu!"

Chu Qianli’s eyes darkened, yet she did not pay heed and continued on her way.

Qianqian followed timidly behind her.

Once they were a good distance away, Qianqian spoke up, "Princess, fortunately, you were alert just now! Consort Jin offered her kindness without a reason, she surely had no good intentions."

But to dare to poison the bird’s nest soup that was for the Princess, Consort Jin’s audacity was indeed too great, wasn’t it?

However, presently bearing the status of a Concubine, the Princess really had no standing in the Prince Residence.

Anyone could bully her now!

That’s just too much!

Chu Qianli said nothing, but inwardly, she also had so doubts.

Although Consort Jin hated her, having only just been able to return to the Prince Residence, Consort Jin wouldn’t rashly do sothing to upset Feng Yexuan at this ti.

Why would she be so bold to attempt to poison her?

This matter was indeed sowhat strange...

Upon reaching the gates of Wuzhou Garden, Chu Qianli turned back to Qianqian, "You go and wander around. Wait until Consort Jin has left Qianyun Pavilion before going back."

"Understood," Qianqian nodded her head.

The Prince didn’t like irrelevant won entering his premises, and even if she followed the Princess in, she would be stopped at the entrance.

As for Qianyun Pavilion, if she returned now and encountered Consort Jin, Consort Jin would surely tornt her.

She needed to vent her anger on soone, after all.

Qianqian obediently turned and left.

Chu Qianli watched her leave before turning back and slowly walking into Wuzhou Garden.

The Wuzhou Garden tonight was brightly lit.

Was Feng Yexuan hosting so distinguished guests?

Just as she walked in, she heard the lodious sound of a zither.

Stepping closer and looking up, she faintly saw a graceful figure dancing in the hall...
