Many big companies had also turned this activity into a profitable business, and Feng Wu knew that she could learn from them.
However…
“Why gift envelopes? Are you going to pay for them? Do you have too much money to burn?” Feng Wu was perplexed.
Feng Xun cleared his throat.
He glanced at Feng Wu. Of course, it was because of Jun Linyuan, but he couldn’t tell Feng Wu that.
“New Year’s Eve is in a few days; what’s wrong with giving out some gifts? Any ideas?” Feng Xun grumbled. “We have to do better than Zuo Qingluan!”
Feng Wu said, “But it’ll cost you a lot of money.”
Feng Xun patted his chest. “Money won’t be a problem! I’ll take care of it!”
Feng Wu asked, “How big a scene do you want it to be?”
Feng Xun said, “The bigger, the better!”
Feng Wu asked, “Are you sure?”
Feng Xun said, “Of course!”
Feng Wu rolled her eyes at him. She couldn’t understand these rich people.
The Zuo family.
Master Zuo and Mrs. Zuo were discussing in low voices. “Apart from the first day, Qingluan has kept a low profile since she came back. We hardly ever see her.”
Master Zuo nodded.
Mrs. Zuo said, “Her birthday is coming up. How about we throw her a big party?”
Master Zuo asked, “Is it really necessary?”
Mrs. Zuo said, “Of course it is. Have you forgotten who Qingluan is? She’s the only girl with the True Phoenix Blood in the empire, and you know what that means!”
Everyone in the Junwu Empire knew what it meant.
Noble families would often marry one another, including the imperial family.
The True Phoenix Blood was one of the most prestigious bloodlines and almost as respected as the dragon bloodline.
Not all imperial family members had the dragon bloodline. There would be one member at most in each generation.
Sometimes, the entire living imperial family might not have it.
For instance, no one in Emperor Wu’s generation had it. Therefore, everyone was elated when they found that Jun Linyuan had the bloodline.
That was why no matter what Jun Linyuan did, Emperor Wu would only shout at him but wouldn’t actually do anything.
With his dragon bloodline, it would only make sense that he should marry a girl with the True Phoenix Blood. Once the two bloodlines combined, they would probably have even more talented babies.
Mrs. Zuo was very pleased. “His Royal Highness has the dragon bloodline, and Qingluan has the only True Phoenix Blood in the empire. She’s the only girl His Royal Highness will marry!”
Master Zuo was more level-headed than she was. “You forgot about Feng Wu.”
Mrs. Zuo smirked. “You did that thing five years ago precisely because of Feng Wu, right? His Royal Highness had two choices, but now, he only has one!”
Mrs. Zuo didn’t think much of it when she saw Master Zuo’s frown because she knew that her family was going to be connected to the imperial family by marriage.
“My lord, we were friendly with Prince Jun Linshen, but we can’t do that now. After all, His Royal Highness is going to be Qingluan’s future husband, so we should support him.”
Master Zuo rolled his eyes at her. “Everyone knows that Prince Jun Linshen can never replace the crown prince; his supporters are only making fools of themselves.. His Majesty will only laugh it off.”
