Chuling knew only how to serve her mistress. She always resigned herself when faced with adversity. Although she was a Spiritual Master, she still stooped to a compromise with trash like Hu Kemeng. The difference in her imposing manner and Feng Tianlan’s was just too large.
Azurite, on the other hand, would act decisively towards every problem that cropped up when it came to serving Feng Tianlan. On top of that, she would beat up all those who had a foul mouth. She possessed hints of Feng Tianlan’s style.
Before, Gu Nansheng had thought Azurite was a gentle woman—since her name sounded very gentle. Her temperament was gentle as well. However, today she realized that her gentleness was only for Feng Tianlan.
“Stop!” After being stunned by this scene, the Beiqi Emperor quickly regained his senses and shouted loudly, “Arrest them for me!”
Gu Nansheng’s voice was louder than the Beiqi Emperor’s. “I will kill the families of whoever dares to touch her!”
The Beiqi Emperor’s heart was palpitating with anger after seeing the imperial guards not having the courage to move. “Gu Nansheng, are you trying to revolt against me?”
Gu Nansheng stayed silent. She just pursed her lips and stared at the Beiqi Emperor with hatred. If Father did not go to such an extent, she wouldn’t have to revolt.
After giving her one last slap, Azurite pushed the imperial noble consort onto the ground. Then, she looked down at the trembling concubines. “If you speak of my master like that again, I will cut out your tongues and feed them to the dogs.”
“Beiqi Emperor?” Feng Tianlan raised her head as she examined the Beiqi Emperor from head to toe as if he was an incumbent.
“Presumptuous!” The Beiqi Emperor stared at Feng Tianlan angrily and ordered, “Take this gigolo away and castrate him.”
The imperial guards who didn’t dare to move started charging towards Feng Tianlan and Azurite at once.
Just as Wu Yuan was about to retaliate, Azurite, who was beside Feng Tianlan, started moving once again. Her figure blurred like a severe gale. Wherever she passed, the imperial guards collapsed onto the ground. Her technique was like flowing water. She did not hesitate at all.
Wu Yuan couldn’t help but stare at Feng Tianlan. Was she standing up for Gu Nansheng?
“Good-for-nothing! Charge! Everyone, charge!” After seeing the imperial guards falling to the ground like leaves, the Beiqi Emperor was extremely furious. She was too presumptuous! She dared to injure his guards in a huge fight at his palace!
Gu Nansheng glanced at Feng Tianlan who remained silent. She was touched. She was supporting her while showing her father, the imperial noble consort, and Gu Yun, who the boss was.
After having been given up by her family, there was still one person who would protect her in such a way. This gave her a whole new anticipation for the future.
Looking at the imperial guards that had been his pride getting defeated and beaten into a pulp, the Beiqi Emperor finally changed his order, “Okay, stop! Everyone, stop.”
After stomping on the last imperial guard, Azurite went back to Feng Tianlan’s side to stand with her.
“Who exactly are you?” The Beiqi Emperor was so angry that smoke was about to come out of his head. With such a capable underling by his side, this man couldn’t be just a simple gigolo.
Feng Tianlan raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at the Beiqi Emperor with disdain. She spoke faintly, “Has the Beiqi Emperor decided to stop calling me a gigolo?”
“Even if you aren’t one, Sheng’er is already engaged. She is not someone you can disgrace. Even if you like Sheng’er, you are not fit to be with her.” The Beiqi Emperor was trembling in anger by Feng Tianlan’s arrogant and disdainful attitude.
He had been an emperor for a few decades but never had he been angered this much before. Now, a mere brat showed up and was actually giving him a hard time.
Gu Yun glanced at Feng Tianlan as she walked up to the Beiqi Emperor and patted his chest to soothe him. “Father, calm down. I think that man is actually a woman. Perhaps Father has misunderstood Eldest Sister.”
