1668 In Court
“Are you a.s.sured now that I have done this?” As he spoke, Wuxing caressed her head, and Lingyun dodged.
In the past, she would be cheerful for at least a few months, if Wuxing treated her in this way, but now she subconsciously wanted to stay away from him rather.
That was because she had gotten him out of her mind.
If not for the revenge she needed to take, Lingyun would not want to spare any more effort on this man.
“Go,” Lingyun said briefly.
!!
Wuxing looked gentle and wanted to stay there for a bit longer, but he received a cold shoulder from Lingyun. His heart sank.
What made Lingyun so cold all of a sudden?
Just like her mistress the Phoenix Girl.
Could it be because she was affected after spending so much time with her? That wasn’t a good thing for him.
“Lingyun, women should be gentle and kind, so that they can be loved. Don’t learn from…” Wuxing started to nag.
“Someone will have snacks delivered to me here soon.” Lingyun interrupted him.
Wuxing had much to say to her, but those words were stuck. He had no choice but to leave. He was going to teach her when he had time.
This personality wasn’t very comforting for him.
Wuxing sighed and left.
Lingyun continued with her own work.
She never agreed to do what she was asked to do. As for getting married… it was something for two people, so she should have a say as well.
Wuxing was way too wild. He thought that as long as he showed her some affection, she would buy his words. He did not even ask her if she wanted to marry him.
Since that was not asked, she would answer his question when he did ask her.
Later, Lingyun repeated the whole incident to Sword One, who would pa.s.s on the message to the Phoenix Girl.
She was still studying her drugs, which were going to be used by the Phoenix Girl. She wasn’t going to waste any time in delaying the making of the drugs. So she went back to her work.
In Gu Chaoyan’s yard…
She had just heard Lingyun’s story, when De Fu came to pa.s.s on an imperial order that summoned her to the court.
De Fu gave her a look of indication, after he finished relaying the message.
He could not say everything out aloud, but the Phoenix Girl helped him and had a very special ident.i.ty, he needed to give her some indications.
The King was being weird these days, but no one understood what was going on with him.
He could not help but sigh.
“Phoenix Girl, prepare as many things as possible. The days are getting worse, and we have no idea what is going to happen. Be prepared for everything.” De Fu added.
Gu Chaoyan understood what he meant instantly.
She was going to be given a hard time in court today.
The other day when they met at the court, the King was already quite imposing, let alone today.
De Fu was a kind man who remembered the favor he received from her, so he constantly gave her reminders. So if anything happened to the capital, she was going to make sure De Fu would not be affected, with all her efforts.
Gu Chaoyan nodded at him, showing that she had gotten his message, then she took Sword One and together, they headed into the court.
De Fu said as he was walking with them, “Phoenix Girl, be fast today, you know everyone else will arrive earlier than you.”
