Whenever Emperor Wu got angry at Jun Linyuan, he wanted to urge Jun Linshen to compete with his brother, but that was very naive of him. Jun Linshen wasn’t Jun Linyuan’s match at all.
Master Zuo shook his head.
“But His Royal Highness treats Feng Wu differently.” Master Zuo frowned.
“I disagree!” Mrs. Zuo shook her head. “Yes, His Royal Highness found Feng Wu special before, but that was when Luan hadn’t come back. Now that she’s here, things will be different!
“My lord, just think about Qingluan!
“She has the True Phoenix Blood and is the only perfect match for the dragon bloodline.
“And she’s supported by both the Zuo family and Firmament Palace. That’s unmatched in the Junwu Empire.
“Moreover, she’s very talented. She’s only about to turn 18, but she’s already a Spiritual King. How formidable is that?!”
…
Mrs. Zuo listed Zuo Qingluan’s merits before naming Feng Wu’s shortcomings.
In the end, she reached the conclusion: “His Royal Highness was only tricked by that Feng Wu because he doesn’t know how brilliant Luan is. I believe that he’ll come to his senses.”
The more she spoke, the more excited she became. “Let’s have a big celebration and show everyone how amazing Luan is. The entire imperial capital will talk about it, and His Royal Highness will have to listen.
“Of course, the most ideal situation is that His Royal Highness will come in person,” said Mrs. Zuo. “Wait, I need to discuss it with Luan.”
In Phoenix Yard.
“My lady?” Tongque thought that her mistress was lost in thought, so she wanted to wake her up from her reverie.
But in fact, Zuo Qingluan was eavesdropping on her parents.
Master Zuo didn’t set up a barrier when he spoke, and at Zuo Qingluan’s cultivation level, she could easily hear them.
Zuo Qingluan glanced at Tongque and rose to her feet.
Mrs. Zuo was coming out with her maids when Zuo Qingluan arrived.
She was pleasantly surprised when she saw her daughter. “Luan, I was going to see you, and you’re here. What a coincidence! Come in. Mom and Dad have something to tell you.”
Zuo Qingluan remained indifferent. She still used her condescending manner when she spoke to her parents.
After they entered, Master Zuo cleared his throat. “Luan, there’s no one else around, so just tell us: What do you think of His Royal Highness?”
Mrs. Zuo rolled her eyes at her husband. What kind of question was that? Of course, everyone admired His Royal Highness!
But Zuo Qingluan frowned and said coldly, “His Royal Highness is brilliant, but he’s not the only one I can marry.”
What?!
Mrs. Zuo paled. “Luan, are you in love with someone else? Who is it? Is he from Firmament Palace?”
Zuo Qingluan said, “There’s no one. I’m only saying that I’m just as brilliant as he is. If he marries me, I’ll stand by his side, but if he won’t, I can rise to the top myself!”
Mrs.. Zuo panicked. “Who gave you that idea? What do you mean ‘if he won’t’? You have to marry him!”
