Meanwhile, Feng Xun and Xuan Yi were enjoying drinks behind closed doors.
Feng Xun said, “We’ve sent Boss Jun to Xiao Wu’s home. We’ve accomplished our mission, right?”
Xuan Yi drained his glass. “Yup.”
He had always had feelings for Feng Wu, but he knew he couldn’t let anybody know, nor did he want to.
Feng Xun couldn’t tell, and just laughed. “They’ve dragged this thing out for too long. They’ll marry eventually, so they may as well do it now.”
Xuan Yi had a bitter taste in his mouth. “You’re right.”
Feng Xun looked like a happy mouse. “What do you think they’re doing now?”
The answer was: Nothing.
The crown prince was so frustrated because he usually was the one who walked away, but Feng Wu was the one who did it today.
Unbelievable!
He wanted to run after her but was too weak to do so.
Feng Wu had put some sleep-inducing ingredients in his medicine to make him sleep better, and it was taking effect now.
He couldn’t move or make a sound when he wanted to call Feng Wu’s name.
Couldn’t she come back herself?! The crown prince kicked away his blanket and turned to face the wall.
Feng Wu calmed down when the cool air outside blew on her face.
Jun Linyuan had always been like this. Given his severe internal injury, he couldn’t activate his spiritual essence. Of course he would feel frustrated. Feng Wu felt she shouldn’t have bickered with him.
She felt so childish.
She patted her own head.
Someone suddenly showed up when she was about to return to her room.
Feng Wu almost jumped.
“Master Gao?”
It was Master Gao, the eunuch and the chief steward of Emperor Wu.
He bowed. “Miss Feng Wu, His Majesty wants to see you.”
Feng Wu looked perplexed.
She had met Emperor Wu on many occasions, which was why she was so surprised when she saw him.
He looked so angry, like he was going to explode.
“Xiao Wu, you’re here! Tell me, have you seen that brat Jun Linyuan?”
Feng Wu said, “What?”
She looked so innocent when she shook her head in confusion. Anybody would believe her.
“You really haven’t seen him? I’m so mad!” Emperor Wu didn’t even give Feng Wu time to answer. She just sat there and watched the emperor complain about his son.
“Do you know what he did last night?
“He went out to fight!
“Do you know with whom?
“Zuo Chengfeng!
“Do you know who Zuo Chengfeng is?”
Emperor Wu went on before Feng Wu could answer.
“He’s Zuo Qingluan’s grandfather!
“That brat went to fight Zuo Chengfeng on his own!
“He’s of the older generation and is so much more capable! What made that brat so bold?!”
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched.
“Wait. He went to challenge Zuo Qingluan’s grandfather? Why?” Feng Wu was confused.
Emperor Wu stared at her. “You don’t know?”
Deep down, she knew the answer, but she insisted, “No, I don’t.”
“I heard Junjun and Zuo Chengfeng reached an agreement. If Zuo Chengfeng lost, he would have to keep his promise.” Emperor Wu stared at Feng Wu.
