That was a surprise. Lady Wang was actually on their side.
At that thought, they became much nicer to Lady Wang — so much so that other people might take them for real sisters.
While they were engaged in excited discussion, the empress dowager was getting worse.
She was barely conscious and was slipping into a coma.
Emperor Wu was so anxious that he didn’t stop pacing.
He suddenly turned around and stared at Master Chu, who had just come out of the room. “How’s Her Majesty doing? Speak!”
Master Chu furrowed his brow and was full of resignation. “Your Majesty, Miss Feng Wu predicted everything.”
“What?” Emperor Wu stared at Master Chu.
Master Chu immediately said, “Miss Feng Wu said a few days ago that Her Majesty’s condition would get worse, and so would the damage to her brain… Miss Feng Wu was correct about everything, and Her Majesty’s condition is very severe now! Your Majesty, Miss Feng Wu is the only one who can treat Her Majesty now. Otherwise, we may lose her!”
A hush fell over the room…
Emperor Wu stared at Master Chu in anger and frustration.
Master Chu stressed, “Your Majesty, Miss Feng Wu is our only hope now. No one else can save Her Majesty now!”
Emperor Wu bellowed, “Go get her, then!”
Master Chu nodded and quickly left.
However —
Master Chu arrived at Jun Linyuan’s building only to find that Feng Wu wasn’t there.
For the first time, he panicked.
He stared at Granny Gong and said anxiously, “What are we going to do now? His Majesty is waiting for her! How can she not be here now?!”
Her Majesty’s life was in danger!
Granny Gong gave it some thought and said, “Miss Feng Wu gave me a letter before she left and told me to give it to you when you came.”
Master Chu took the letter and quickly opened it.
One look and he was over the moon.
He dashed off with the letter.
Master Chu ran through the corridor like a gust of wind and rushed into the empress dowager’s building.
“Your Majesty, Her Majesty is going to be alright!” Master Chu sounded excited when he said, “Miss Feng Wu left us this treatment, and I’ve read it. If we follow these instructions, there’s a 70% chance of saving Her Majesty.”
“Where’s Feng Wu?” Emperor Wu was displeased.
The empress dowager’s life was on the line; where was she?
“Well… I heard that she’s away. As for where she went, I didn’t ask.” All of Master Chu’s attention was on Feng Wu’s letter.
“Her Majesty is seriously ill with her life hanging in the balance, and Feng Wu thinks she can go out just like that? Damn her!” Emperor Wu bellowed.
Master Chu raised the letter in his hand. “Your Majesty, Miss Feng Wu might think that this letter alone is enough to save Her Majesty, so…”
“The success rate will be more than 70% if she does it herself! She has no respect for Her Majesty or the royal family at all!”
She was as arrogant as Jun Linyuan!
The more Emperor Wu thought about it, the angrier he became. He then bellowed, “Bring Feng Yanfeng here right now!”
Hence, when Master Chu went to treat the empress dowager, Feng Yanfeng was brought in, and he looked completely confused.
“Your Majesty —” Feng Yanfeng bowed as soon as he saw Emperor Wu.
Meanwhile, all the people outside the building were murmuring among themselves as well.
“Why does His Majesty want to see Master Feng so suddenly?”
“Master Feng has always behaved himself. Did something happen?”
“Plus, it was the chief steward, His Majesty’s most capable servant, who went to fetch Master Feng…”
