Lady Gu snorted. “Your mother is your motive!”
Feng Wu’s mother was the legendary Lady Ling, who was said to be the most beautiful woman on the continent!
The beautiful lady was Feng Wu’s taboo, just like her beautiful master.
Therefore, Feng Wu was filled with rage when Lady Gu brought up her mother’s name in front of everyone.
Lady Gu knew that if Feng Wu remained alive, the Gu family would be doomed, so she had to destroy Feng Wu.
She glared at Feng Wu and said, “Lady Ling wants to marry Lord Gu!”
Wow —
Everyone gave Feng Wu strange looks.
Seriously?!
Lady Ling and Lord Gu… Really?
“If Lady Ling really is in love with Lord Gu, of course, the lord would want her. She’s so beautiful!
“But Lord Gu has a wife, so he can’t officially marry her.
“Since you’re ambitious enough to marry the crown prince, of course, you can’t stand the idea of your mother becoming a concubine.
“You planned the whole thing.
“You invited Prince Jun Linshen here and made sure that we thought we’d wronged you. After that, we wouldn’t suspect you again.
“But you’re the real killer, and His Royal Highness is on your side!”
Lady Gu then turned to Jun Linyuan. “Your Royal Highness, please open your eyes! She’s lying to you!”
Wow!
What Lady Gu said was so incredible that everyone was baffled.
It was too terrifying to be true.
Did Feng Wu really plan the whole thing?
Things had just taken another turn.
Everyone began to suspect Feng Wu again. They even doubted Jun Linyuan’s decision.
If the crown prince would protect such a girl, they wouldn’t respect him as much.
Lady Gu had made up such an elaborate story that she had convinced even herself.
Only then could she convince the others.
At the same time…
People in the palace were already told what had happened in the manor.
“What?” Emperor Wu had yet to digest the news that Feng Wu had defeated Jun Linshen, but now, the story had changed again.
Lady Ling and Lord Gu?
The empress dowager was furious when she heard that Jun Linyuan was protecting Feng Wu.
Ranmil was angry as well.
Empress Dugu was the most upset of them all.
Compared with Jun Linyuan, Jun Linshen was just a mediocre prince, but Empress Dugu wouldn’t accept the reality, and had been urging her son to compete with the crown prince.
But Feng Wu had humiliated Jun Linshen in front of so many people.
Jun Linshen had been forced to admit that he was inferior to Jun Linyuan, which would be such a blow to his confidence. It pained Empress Dugu to think about it.
She took Emperor Wu’s hand and wept. “Your Majesty, how could Feng Wu say such things to Linshen?”
Emperor Wu thought, “She’s telling the truth, isn’t she?”
However, he knew that it would only make Empress Dugu whine, so he nodded and said, “I’ll tell her off next time she’s here.”
