Master Zuo nodded and said, “You’re right!”
Mrs. Zuo glared at him. “No, she’s not! We invested so much in her so that she can marry His Royal Highness!”
Master Zuo said, “His Royal Highness is brilliant, but so is Luan. She’ll marry His Royal Highness one day, but she can’t seem too eager. We should let other people hear her little speech as well.”
Mrs. Zuo didn’t understand.
Master Zuo patted Zuo Qingluan’s shoulder. “That’s good. You know what you’re doing, and you have a clear goal. Although we’ve lost your siblings, with you here, the Zuo family will still have a bright future!”
Only then did Zuo Qingluan remember what she read in the file. “What happened? Did Feng Wu kill them?”
She didn’t trust what she heard from other people, so she asked her parents.
Mrs. Zuo had been waiting for that question for a long time, and she burst into tears.
She added very colorful details to her description when she told Zuo Qingluan how Zuo Qingxian, Zuo Qingliu, and Zuo Qingyu died. In the end, she took Zuo Qingluan’s hand and wept. “Feng Wu hated you for destroying her True Phoenix Blood, so she took it out on your siblings. Luan, you have to make her pay for what she did!”
Zuo Qingluan didn’t really care about her siblings, but…
She took what Feng Wu did personally.
“Mother, I’ll avenge them. Don’t worry,” Zuo Qingluan promised. “Throw a big party for me. If you can, invite Feng Wu.”
“Why?!” Mrs. Zuo asked angrily.
“Because her birthday is on the same day,” Zuo Qingluan said viciously.
“She’s already on guard. I don’t think she’ll come,” said Mrs. Zuo.
Zuo Qingluan smirked, “Then she’ll be a coward.”
Mrs. Zuo didn’t understand, but she trusted her clever daughter.
“By the way, send an invitation to the crown prince’s residence as well,” said Zuo Qingluan before she left.
Mrs. Zuo was pleasantly surprised. She grabbed Master Zuo’s hand and said, “Look, Luan really is fond of His Royal Highness. If we send the crown prince’s residence an invitation, we should invite the other influential families as well. The entire imperial capital will see how miserable Feng Wu is in comparison!”
Master Zuo didn’t say anything, but instinct told him that things wouldn’t be so simple.
The crown prince’s residence.
Granny Gong frowned when she saw the invitation.
Zuo Qingluan’s 18th birthday was coming up.
And His Royal Highness was invited to the party.
Granny Gong snorted, tossed the letter aside, and went back to what she was doing.
She needed to prepare for something very important!
Soon, it was New Year’s Eve.
The Zuo family was packed. Many influential guests were there for the event.
Even the main street outside was blocked by carriages.
The Feng clan had no visitors at all.
It was a stark contrast to the Zuo family.
There were guests from all nine major clans. Even a royal banquet probably wouldn’t have so many people.
“Where’s His Royal Highness?” That was the only thing Mrs.. Zuo cared about.
