Feng Wu held the empress dowager’s hand and nodded. “Yes, of course. I’ll train her well.”
The empress dowager said, “Are you going to marry such a girl? You should cancel the marriage contract!”
Feng Wu chuckled inwardly but said obediently, “Yes, of course. I’ll do that later.”
The empress dowager caressed Feng Wu’s hand and smiled. “Good boy. I’m so happy to hear that. I’ll find you a nice girl. Don’t worry. I already have an eye on someone.”
Feng Wu knew whom she was referring to.
“Grandma —” Feng Wu changed the subject. She pointed at Feng Xun and said, “What’s with all the flogging?”
The empress dowager nodded and told Emperor Wu, “Your Majesty, it’s a good thing that they all made it out alive. They all look exhausted. Let them go back and have some rest. We’ve been here for so long. I think we should head back tomorrow.”
Emperor Wu always listened to his mother. Since the empress dowager had said so, he nodded and said, “Alright. We’ll set out tomorrow.”
The Junwu Empire team had gained a lot from the event this time.
Most of the younger generation had risen two or three levels, and the death rate was very low.
The grassland was the unlucky side. Not only had Ranmil lost her cultivation, the other members hadn’t improved much either.
Chieftain Senal laughed. “If Your Majesty has decided to leave tomorrow, I’d like to invite you to a farewell banquet tonight.”
Emperor Wu wouldn’t say no to that.
“I understand.”
They all dispersed and went back to their tents.
Jun Linyuan stared at Feng Wu. “You! Get over here!”
After that, he led Feng Wu into his tent.
Granny Gong and Feng looked at each other in bewilderment.
They looked at each other and felt that something wasn’t right. But what was it?
Feng watched Feng Wu’s gait and frowned.
“Is there something wrong?” Granny Gong frowned and asked.
Feng said, “Let’s wait and see.”
Chaoge and Qiuling had a lot of things to tell Feng Wu, but they were both confused when they saw her going into the crown prince’s tent.
Just then —
Were they seeing things?
Did Feng Wu just command the crown prince? Since when was she so bold?
They couldn’t understand it.
“Something’s not right,” said someone behind them.
“Feng Xun?” Chaoge stared at him.
Although they had just been flogged, Feng Wu’s medicine was so effective that they could already limp around.
“Do you find it strange too?” Chaoge stared at Feng Xun.
Feng Xun rubbed his chin. “Of course it’s strange. Boss Jun is so protective of Xiao Wu. He was never like that. This isn’t good.”
Chaoge asked, “Why? Isn’t it good?”
Feng Xun said, “But Xiao Wu specifically told me that Boss Jun isn’t the one she likes. Boss Jun will be so disappointed!”
Chaoge asked, “What do you want to do?”
Feng Xun said, “I won’t be a good friend if I don’t tell him anything.”
Chaoge said, “Feng Xun, I’m warning you, stay out of their business. You’ll only create more trouble!”
Feng Xun looked at Chaoge but didn’t say anything.
