Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lady Northern Feng seemed to have stayed awake all night, too, and there were dark circles under her eyes.
She said, “Xun left last night.”
Last night, too?
Feng Wu asked, “Where did he go?”
Lady Northern Feng gave her a long look before rubbing her head and sighing. “Let the men do their thing.”
It was obvious that she had tried to talk Feng Xun out of it but failed.
Feng Wu was even more anxious when she heard this. It sounded like the empire was in danger, and men were being sent out to defend the empire with their blood and flesh.
“Please tell me. I really want to know.” Feng Wu said down in front of Lady Northern Feng, looking nervous.
Seeing that even Feng Wu had lost her calmness, Lady Northern Feng knew the girl was really worried, so she said in resignation, “There is a crisis at the northern border.”
Feng Wu asked, “Isn’t my godfather stationed there?”
Lady Northern Feng nodded. “Yes. He’s the Great General of the empire and is stationed at the northern border next to the Dongsang Kingdom. They’re on the move.”
Feng Wu said, “The Dongsang Kingdom has always been trying to plot against us. Why is there a crisis now?”
Lady Northern Feng shook her head. “I don’t know the exact situation. I heard that their crown prince made some great achievements and is leading the invasion himself.”
Lady Northern Feng didn’t know much and was telling Feng Wu everything she knew, but Feng Wu was still confused.
She had to find someone that could explain it to her.
Since Feng Xun wasn’t here, Xuan Yi probably had left with him, too.
She went to Jun Linyuan’s residence just in case, but even Feng was gone, let alone Jun Linyuan.
Granny Gong told her that they had all left the night before.
Feng Wu then visited Bao Er, who had deteriorated further. There wasn’t much time left.
She had to find the Immortal Spiritual Fruit.
If anything happened to Bao Er, Feng Wu would spend the rest of her days in guilt.
She took a deep breath and went straight to Emperor Wu.
He wasn’t in the main hall but was in his study.
News on the Dongsang Kingdom was known only to the high-ranking officials of the empire. It was kept from the common people in order to avoid panic.
Emperor Wu and his officials had discussed it at length but reached no conclusion. In the end, he had to let the officials talk among themselves while he retreated to another room to clear his head.
“Your Majesty.” Feng Wu was waiting for him there.
Emperor Wu was surprised to see her. “Kiddo, you’re here.”
He now saw Feng Wu as a daughter-in-law.
Seeing Emperor Wu’s pale face, Feng Wu asked in concern, “Your Majesty, did you not sleep last night?”
Emperor Wu waved at her. He sat down on the steps and patted the spot next to him.
He seemed to love chatting with people he liked while sitting on the steps.
As soon as Feng Wu sat down, Emperor Wu asked, “You want information on Junjun, don’t you?”
Feng Wu didn’t know how to answer that question.
Emperor Wu wasn’t in the mood to tease her.
