Master Gao said, “What?”

Emperor Wu said, “Those families don’t just have outstanding younger members. Some of the middle-aged members are equally impressive! What if Feng Wu prefers a mature man? What should we do?”

Master Gao said, “What?”

Emperor Wu said, “Forget it. You won’t understand.”

He left the room, looking for someone that he could talk to.

“Who should I go to?

“Empress Dugu, then. She’s the most considerate person.

“She used to have some disagreements with Feng Wu, but she’s been saying many good things about that girl. She must like Feng Wu a lot now.”

So, Emperor Wu went to see Empress Dugu.

Empress Dugu was quite happy recently, probably because Feng Wu hadn’t been around to upset her.

However —

“Divine Phoenix Blood?” Empress Dugu ground her teeth, feeling as sick as if she had swallowed a fly.

“Yes, the Divine Phoenix Blood! Isn’t it great? She’s our daughter-in-law!” Emperor Wu said proudly.

Empress Dugu thought, “Go away! I don’t want that daughter-in-law!”

Seeing Empress Dugu’s frozen smile, Emperor Wu frowned. “Didn’t you say you’ve reconciled with Xiao Wu? You said you did something you weren’t proud of, too. I thought you liked that girl.”

Empress Dugu didn’t know what to say.

Like that girl?

When Feng Wu joined Imperial College, Empress Dugu thought she wouldn’t be back for a few years. That was why Empress Dugu played the good wife and said those things.

But now, she could only scream in her head. When talking to her husband, she had to fake a smile and pretend to be the good wife that she was supposed to be.

“That’s great news. What a lovely girl.” Empress Dugu’s smile looked more like a grimace.

Emperor Wu should have noticed it, but he was too absorbed in having such an amazing daughter-in-law that he failed to discern the empress’s emotions.

He feigned a modest tone. “Don’t say that. Our Xiao Wu is only slightly better than your niece.”

Empress Dugu wanted to roll her eyes. If you weren’t smiling so broadly, I would actually believe you!

Although she knew Emperor Wu was showing off to her and complimenting Feng Wu by belittling Zuo Qingluan, she still had to agree with everything he said.

Empress Dugu felt as if she was being slapped repeatedly.

She decided she would never forgive Feng Wu.

Was Emperor Wu going to stop when he saw Empress Dugu’s expression?

No.

Emperor Wu wasn’t a considerate person.

He smiled at Empress Dugu. “My mother has been in poor health recently. Come with me. Let’s tell her the good news. Maybe she’ll feel much better.”

Empress Dugu was almost in tears and gave Emperor Wu a pleading look.

Emperor Wu found it suspicious. “You don’t look happy. Do you still have objections about Feng Wu?”
