Therefore, when the empress dowager wanted to make Feng Wu sit next to her, Feng Wu kept looking back at Jun Linyuan, fearing that he would be too far away from her.
The empress dowager found that very frustrating.
She pinched Feng Wu’s waist and lowered her voice. “Jun Linyuan, have you lost your mind?!”
That hurt.
Feng Wu was almost in tears, and looked at the empress dowager in confusion.
The empress dowager said angrily, “Look around you! You’re a man; you should act like one! Women are disposable! I see that you can’t get that girl out of your head. I can have her killed!”
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
She gave the empress dowager a strange look.
If she really did that, she would kill her favorite grandson.
Seeing how unperturbed “Jun Linyuan” looked, the empress dowager was even angrier. “Jun Linyuan, are you trying to give me a heart attack?!”
It seemed that she was genuinely angry now.
Feng Wu looked over her shoulder to calculate the distance. If she sat next to the empress dowager and Jun Linyuan sat in the crown prince’s seat, they wouldn’t be over ten steps apart. So, she decided to coax the old lady.
And that was something she was good at.
She took the empress dowager’s hand, smiled, and said softly, “Grandmother, you’re an eagle who soars in the sky, and that girl is just an ant. An eagle would never let an ant bother her.”
The empress dowager seemed very pleased to hear that.
Feng Wu went on. “Grandmother, you’re an adult, and she’s just a kid. Why let her affect your mood?”
The empress dowager looked away. “What if I let her affect me?”
Feng Wu sat down next to her and peeled an orange for her. “Sure, sure. Elderly people are just like children. In that sense, you’re the same age as Feng Wu and even younger than me.”
Jun Linyuan probably didn’t know what his grandmother liked to hear, but Feng Wu did.
As expected, the empress dowager chuckled when she heard that.
…
After that, the atmosphere seemed to lighten up a lot. However, the empress dowager wasn’t going to forgive her grandson yet.
“Are you going to let the girl sit in your seat?” The empress dowager stared at Feng Wu.
Feng Wu cleared her throat. “Grandmother, what do you mean…”
The empress dowager said, “Isn’t she a princess? She has her own seat! Tell her to go back there!”
Feng Wu looked around…
Where did the princesses sit? The seats were so far away, where she probably wouldn’t be able to hear Jun Linyuan and the others talk.
Feng Wu said, “Grandmother, if you insist, I’ll have to sit with her.”
“You —” The empress dowager stared at Feng Wu and was furious.
Feng Wu smiled and held the empress dowager’s hands. “There, there, Your Majesty, don’t let her upset you. We’ll ignore her.”
The empress dowager said, “How can I? She’s still sitting there! Does she think that she’s the crown prince?!”
Feng Wu cleared her throat.
Other people saw it as well.
And some wanted to create trouble more than others.
They were just waiting for the empress dowager to finish criticizing “Feng Wu.”
The second prince and Empress Dugu looked at each other, and both were pleased.
