Mrs Zuo had the biggest frown on her face.
She believed that her Zuo Qingluan was the future wife of the crown prince. Who the hell did that Feng Wu think she was?!
Hearing everyone else’s exclamations, Mrs Zuo felt even worse.
Seeing her reaction, Mrs Dugu couldn’t help but say, “I think His Royal Highness himself wanted to leave in the first place, and what Feng Wu said only gave him a good excuse. That’s why it seemed like she was leading His Royal Highness away.”
Everyone exclaimed with surprise when they heard that explanation.
“You have a point!”
“That was indeed what happened!”
“You’re right! That should be the case.”
No one wanted to admit Feng Wu’s actual influence, so they accepted Mrs Dugu’s explanation right away.
However, some people were smarter than they were.
Emperor Wu’s eyes glinted coldly as he watched Jun Linyuan and Feng Wu leave.
Everyone thought that he was staring at Jun Linyuan, but Emperor Wu was actually staring at Feng Wu.
“Feng Wu…” Emperor Wu narrowed his eyes.
Before, Empress Dugu told him that a master oracle had predicted that Feng Wu was capable of turning the world upside down, but the emperor hadn’t believed it at the time. Now, however, it seemed that the master could be right.
Turn the world upside down? Emperor Wu wondered if that referred to his empire, and he looked alarmed.
Little did Feng Wu know that by temporarily resolving the issue between Emperor Wu and Jun Linyuan and giving Emperor Wu an excuse, she had successfully put the emperor on guard.
Maybe she would have thought twice if she knew this was going to happen.
Jun Linyuan quickly led Feng Wu away.
With his long legs and large strides, Feng Wu had to trot to catch up with him.
Just then —
Ding!
She heard a pleasant sound in her head.
“The sixth trial has been completed.”
That voice made Feng Wu so relieved that she wanted to jump around.
Yeah!
She had finally finished this task!
Her 18 days working as Jun Linyuan’s maid were finally over!
Oh god!
Feng Wu was so excited that she wanted to run around and laugh out loud.
Hahaha!
She finally wasn’t a maid anymore!
Talk about freedom! She finally wasn’t under Jun Linyuan’s control!
“Stop fidgeting!” Jun Linyuan had no idea why the girl was so excited. Even her hand was trembling in his.
But Feng Wu was as happy as a bird out of its cage.
“Let go of me,” she prompted Jun Linyuan.
The crown prince frowned a little, and his jaw tightened.
It was obvious that he was unhappy.
Seeing that Jun Linyuan wouldn’t move, Feng Wu was a little flustered, and she said impatiently, “Let go of me, Jun Linyuan! Now!”
But he only held her hand tighter.
Moreover —
Feng Wu could sense his temper rising.
Jun Linyuan was sulking.
Feng Wu looked at him in bewilderment.
Why was he angry again?
Could it be —
Feng Wu asked tentatively, “Hey, Jun Linyuan, are you angry because I said that you lost?”
The crown prince’s face darkened, and he didn’t want to talk to Feng Wu.
The more she thought about it, the more confident she was in her guess, so Feng Wu said grumpily, “Hey, Jun Linyuan, can’t you see that I said those things to help you?”
