Chapter 372.2: Madame Pang (II)

“Aiya, please don’t say that.” Li Guanwen was silently howling to himself. Just what was this Madame Pang thinking?? Her husband had been dead for so many years, but here she was, talking like this to the high and mighty prince. Pang Xiao had neither been adopted as a concubine-born son nor been been raised in the Pang household!

“The prince is His Majesty’s right hand man. This servant is also here to look in on the prince’s wounds. If Madame Pang doesn’t mind, we’ll have the imperial physician come examine the prince.”

“Then I thank His Majesty greatly for his concern.”

Li Guanwen had Physician Ma come over.

Pang Xiao’s arm wound had already been dressed, but the bloodstains on the snow-white gauze looked horrific. Add to that the bruise around his lips—it made for easy imagining of how brutal the actual fight had been.

Once the imperial physician redressed the prince’s wound, Li Guanwen conveyed respectfully, “Your Highness, the emperor would like me to ask you just what happened.”

Pang Xiao frowned ferociously and bit off coldly, “That bastard was asking for it! When this prince gets the chance to, taking revenge for this wound is the first thing on my mind!”

He was someone accustomed to taking lives on the battlefield alright. When the prince’s wrathful aura flared, even Li Guanwen subconsciously shrank into himself.

Madame Pang, however, was wholly unafraid. She hectored lowly, “Your Highness! You are a subject and Prince Consort Ji a royal relative! How can you talk like this? Do you not remember the Pang house rules?”

Forehead tightly furrowed together, one could tell that the prince was on the verge of erupting. For now however, he still held himself in.

“You weren’t fortunate enough to grow up in the manor, alright, and you’ve come back with some rascally ways from the outside world. Just how did your mother raise you? You wouldn’t be this lawless if you’d grown up in the manor. If your father was still alive, he’d break both your legs to see you be so good-for-nothing!”

Li Guanwen wanted to sink to his knees in abject horror. Of all the people in the world unrelated to Pang Xiao, likely only Madame Pang dared talk to him like this!

Having kept a tight grip on his temper all day, Pang Xiao could finally take no more. “Madame Pang, this prince respects you on account of the father that I never even saw. Don’t greedily fumble for more than what you’re given!”

Madame Pang blinked.

Since arriving at the Pang Manor, Pang Xiao hadn’t so much as raised his voice at her!

It was due to this courteous reception and continual compromise in all areas that gave her the confidence that she could discipline him.

To think that someone who usually looked so meek and harmless would be so terrifying when releasing the killing intent of the battlefield!

“Why would I lack the fortune to grow up in the manor if not for Madame Pang’s all-encompassing envy? You know better than anyone the events of yesteryear. This prince respects you, but you should not overdo things. That year, you first drove my mother out of the manor and then sent assassins after her. That she managed to escape is great serendipity
