Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhao Yang did not care about Feng Rushuang’s status and it might be because of his disappointment.
But, everybody knew that His Majesty had never favored Feng Rushuang. If His Majesty knew that Feng Rushuang came out to gossip about this incident, His Majesty would not punish Zhao Yang no matter what he did.
Why should he be worried?
Mu Qing’er and Lin Yueying still kept quiet.
‘That’s right. Aren’t you worried about her? Now that she’s missing, why do you have the time to chat with us? Isn’t it better if you go and look for her instead of staying here?
‘This kind of concern seems so hypocritical.’
Feng Rushuang’s facial expression changed. All of these sons and daughters of the ministers had favored her before because of the effort and time she put in. Now that they had gotten along well with Feng Ruqing several times, her effort these past few years had gone to waste.
“Zhao Yang!” Feng Rushuang kept her worried look but with a hint of a sneer in her eyes. She smiled coldly. “Have you forgotten what Feng Ruqing did to you before? Now you’re on her side because of a herbal dish?”
Zhao Yang was stunned. He looked at Feng Rushuang for a short while. Then, he lowered his gaze.
“Second Princess, you’re really envious of her.”
They never noticed it all these past years. Besides, they had been lied to all along.
They had always respected the second princess before. However, many things did not make sense.
All of these things made sense now and they had started to doubt Feng Rushuang.
“I remember now.” Lin Yueying bit her lips. She took two steps forward. “You had always appeared at the right moment every time Feng Ruqing bullies us. You appeared and you helped us. Just like that, Feng Ruqing would always let us go when you came to help.”
“It seems that the first princess was just too dumb to notice it. You’ve used her well. Second princess, aren’t you afraid that His Majesty would know about it?”
Mu Qing’er was always timid and shy. But, she came and stood beside Lin Yueying now. Mu Qing’er looked at Feng Rushuang angrily.
In fact, Feng Ruqing was not the only dumb person here.
They were all fooled by Feng Rushuang before.
They never would have known Feng Rushuang’s true self if Feng Ruqing did not disappear this time. ‘How long would they be fooled by her?’
Feng Rushuang was rather annoyed.
She was really happy about Feng Ruqing’s disappearance. His Majesty was so nervous and anxious that he could not be bothered about her. So, she had snuck out of the palace just to celebrate it in a deserted place.
She never guessed that she would encounter these people on her way out. Hence, she did not hide her excitement properly.
n.o.body knew that they would look right through her just because of this small incident.
“What you have said is useless now.” Feng Rushuang was in a good mood. She did not blame these people for their impertinence. She just sighed softly and said, “I’ve adviced her when she tried to buy the Tier-3 snow wolf. Her strength is so low that she could never tame the snow wolf. If she still wanted to buy it, it would be the end for her.”
“But she never listened. What could I do? Now, she’s so brave that she dares to spend time alone with the snow wolf. It’s just like feeding herself to the snow wolf. What she has done is like committing suicide. It’s pointless for me to be anxious and nervous about her.”
Liu Yuchen was so ashamed to mention the role of the snow wolf as a doorkeeper at the princess’s manor after he was attacked by the snow wolf. So, n.o.body knew about it.
“Second Princess!” Lin Yueying clenched her fists tightly. “The princess has just gone missing. How would you know if she’s dead?”
