Feng Yexuan had not failed to hear Consort Jin's cries for help.
But he at least knew that Chu Qianli still had her rationality intact.
Moreover, he was aware that taking someone's life was not the best way to seek revenge, something she was clearly conscious of herself.
To let her live a fate worse than death was the most terrifying punishment.
That's why he believed she would spare Consort Jin's life.
And so, he truly walked away.
He promised her he would not interfere, and he intended, at the very least, to keep that promise.
The guards also stayed well outside the courtyard; if the Prince didn't intrude, they didn't dare act recklessly either.
They did not know what exactly Miss Chu was doing to Consort Jin to elicit such dismal screams?
In fact, Chu Qianli had done nothing; she was merely toying with a small object in her hand.
Consort Jin couldn't make out what it was, but it seemed to resemble a worm?
"Chu Qianli, what exactly do you intend to do?"
