Imperial Concubine Ling slowly closed her eyes and clenched her fists tighter and tighter. Her noble face unknowingly twisted. After a long while, she finally opened her eyes and lightly exhaled.
"What a Luo family, what a Gu Ruoyun! You've really impressed me. You know that father has a daughter like me, yet you still dare to hurt him! Since that's the case, don't blame me for avenging father! "
"Auntie."
Ling Yu raised her blurry, teary eyes and looked at Imperial Concubine Ling miserably.
"Yu 'er, pass on my imperial edict and tell Gu Ruoyun to come see me!"
Imperial Concubine Ling said coldly.
In court, General Luo was highly regarded by His Majesty. Although she was an imperial concubine, she couldn't take down a general who held great power. However, Gu Ruoyun was different. Even though Hundred Herb Hall had great power and influence, she was only a small apprentice there. Shopkeeper Zhao of Hundred Herb Hall was a very reasonable person, so there was no way he would make an enemy out of the entire Azure Dragon Country for a small apprentice.
"Yes, Auntie."
Ling Yu's heart leaped with joy and a vicious look flashed across her eyes.
Gu Ruoyun, this time, even if you had a hundred lives, it wouldn't be enough! As long as I have Auntie's imperial edict, I can even take over Hundred Herb Hall if I want to, let alone a small apprentice like you.
It was obvious that in Ling Yu's heart, no matter how powerful Hundred Herb Hall was, it was still just a merchant. It was far from being able to go against the imperial power.
… …
Inside the imperial study.
Zuo Shangchen lay on a soft chair, his expression lazy and carefree. His phoenix eyes curved into a seductive smile, and he didn't even look at the emperor sitting on the high seat.
"Zuo Shangchen, as the fourth prince of Vermillion Bird Country, is this how you behave?" Leng Yanfeng frowned slightly and a trace of coldness and disdain flashed across his grave and stern face.
Hearing this, Zuo Shangchen smiled.
His smile was peerless and unparalleled. Let alone women, even men couldn't help but be deeply stunned.
"Your Highness, I'm used to doing as I please and really don't understand any etiquette. If I'm not fit to speak to His Majesty because of this, then I'll take my leave."
After saying this, the soft chair carrying Zuo Shangchen was about to leave, but Emperor Leng Wujing suddenly called out to him.
"Wait!"
"What? It was you who said that this prince doesn't understand etiquette. Could it be that you want to stop this prince from leaving? "
Zuo Shangchen waved his feather fan and said with a smile on his face.
Leng Wujing narrowed his eyes slightly. He thought that he had seen through countless people, but he just couldn't see through this bewitching man with a smile on his face …
He was like a mystery, filled with danger, and at the same time, filled him with fear …
That's right, it was fear!
Even Leng Wujing did not know why he, as the emperor of a nation, would be so afraid of a young man in his early twenties!
"Fourth Prince, just speak frankly. Why have you come from Vermillion Bird Country to my Azure Dragon Country?!"
"Oh." Zuo Shangchen stroked his chin and smiled lazily. "For one person."
"Who?"
"Gu Ruoyun!"
Gu Ruoyun?
Leng Wujing stared blankly for a moment. Recently, Gu Ruoyun's name had frequently entered his ears.
She didn't expect Zuo Shangchen to come here for her.
"Hmph!"
Leng Yanfeng scoffed coldly and said expressionlessly: "Zuo Shangchen, as far as I know, you and Gu Ruoyun don't seem to know each other."
"Indeed, we didn't know each other before," Zuo Shangchen raised an eyebrow, "However, I've heard of her name a long time ago. I came all the way here just to see her once. It's laughable that such a peerless genius would be called trash by all of you. If this prince hadn't coincidentally come here, I wouldn't have known that such a talented person existed in this world."
