Chapter 1522: Innocence (3)
How different could the fish taste? Would she actually be able to make it into something else?
Emperor Wu thought the same. Staring at Feng Wu, he asked, “Are you sure you’ll be able to prove your innocence this way?”
Feng Wu nodded solemnly. “Definitely!
However, no one believed her.
Therefore, many people shook their heads, including Emperor Wu.
People like Empress Dugu and Mrs Zuo even gloated at Feng Wu’s predicament.
Mrs Zuo murmured, “I was wondering how she was going to do it. What an idiotic way.”
How different could one roast fish be from another? Moreover, the standard would be very subjective.
However, Feng Wu ignored all the looks they gave her and even looked up at Emperor Wu. She asked, “Your Majesty, should I do it here or take it outside?”
Emperor Wu only stared at Feng Wu as if he was looking at a dead person.
Jun Linyuan spoke at that moment.
“Right here.” That was all he said, but his tone was very domineering.
Emperor Wu stared at Jun Linyuan, and there was no warmth in his eyes.
Jun Linyuan wasn’t affected at all. He didn’t even look at Emperor Wu.
Emperor Wu was frustrated.
Feng Wu didn’t want to go out either, because it would complicate the explanation. Hence, she set up the grill and put the seasoned fish on top.
At first, everyone frowned.
Feng Wu was so bold. How could she possibly dare to roast fish in front of His Majesty?
Emperor Wu frowned as well, because he felt offended.
However, as time went by —
Sizzle —
When Feng Wu activated her formation, the first hint of the aroma wafted up in the air.
“Hey, what’s that smell? Why is it so nice?”
Their attitudes toward Feng Wu began to change.
But she was just getting started.
Three minutes later, they smelled another aroma.
It was even stronger than the previous one!
“OMG —”
The less steadfast ones already began to feel their mouths water.
Even Mrs Zuo, who was firmly against Feng Wu, couldn’t help but swallow.
Seeing their reactions, Feng Xun put his hands behind his back and proudly stuck out his chest!
They now knew why he and Xuan Yi would fight over a piece of fish, because it tasted like nothing else!
No one but Feng Wu could make something like this!
The fish would be ready to serve now if Feng Wu had been cooking for Feng Xun and Xuan Yi, but —
She decided to show these people her true capability!
Hence, three minutes later, the dense spiritual essence doubled again!
“Hm —”
She could hear people swallowing around her.
They were all staring at Feng Wu eagerly!
Feng Wu smiled a little and sped up.
When the last bit of the thick aroma filled the air, Feng Wu put out the fire with a wave of her hand.
A glossy, golden roast fish was presented to the crowd.
Ssss —
Emperor Wu wanted to act unperturbed and indifferent, but he couldn’t control his appetite.
He swallowed.
People like Empress Dugu and Jun Wuxia were filled with hatred toward Feng Wu. However, when the aroma filled the tent —
They started to swallow uncontrollably.
Feng Wu looked up and glanced at them.
