"Yes, of course. It's such a great opportunity. Why don't you go?" Emperor Wu darted an aggrieved look at Feng Wu. "You have no idea how rare this opportunity is. So many people have tried so hard to get it. Just go."
Since Emperor Wu had said that, Feng Wu had no choice but to say yes. However, she still looked reluctant.
Emperor Wu flared up when he saw that.
Reluctant? Do you have any idea that I personally went to beg for your first incense stick … Well, I can't tell her. I'll be a laughing stock if she finds out.
Depressed, Emperor Wu didn't even look at the pretty girl and went back to his imperial palace.
After some thought, Emperor Wu went to the empress dowager's place in the end.
None of the imperial concubines had left yet, and they were all chatting with the empress dowager in Cining Palace. The atmosphere was pleasant, but the empress dowager would sigh every now and then.
As soon as Emperor Wu arrived, all the imperial concubines rose to their feet and bowed to him. Empress Dugu rose to her feet as well.
Emperor Wu waved his hand. "Her Majesty, it's quite lively with all of you here. What are you talking about?"
Before Empress Dugu could say anything, Concubine Oriole piped up, "We were just talking about the Saintess of the Zuo family. Your Majesty, is the Saintess of the Left really that impressive?"
The Saintess of the Left? Zuo Qingluan? Emperor Wu knew a lot more than the imperial concubines, so he felt embarrassed for Zuo Qingluan.
However, the key to the palace was locked, and no one except Emperor Wu could get out, nor could they get in.
Concubine Oriole's voice was as melodious as a lark's, and she looked young and lively. Her lips were as round as cherries, and when she smiled, she reminded Emperor Wu of a fairy. Hence, Emperor Wu had been very fond of her for a while.
However, Emperor Wu had just returned from meeting the fairy, and Concubine Oriole didn't look like the same person.
"Your Majesty, it's the Saintess of the Left's birthday today. I heard that His Royal Highness was there as well." Concubine Oriole didn't sense Emperor Wu's mood. She took Emperor Wu's arm and rubbed it against his chest.
Everyone said that His Majesty didn't like Zuo Qingluan. Therefore, His Majesty would definitely like it if His Royal Highness and Zuo Qingluan were together, Concubine Oriole thought.
Before Emperor Wu could say anything, the Lonely Queen smiled. "I heard that he did."
Naturally, Empress Dugu wanted Zuo Qingluan to marry Jun Linyuan, for it would be like hammering a nail into Jun Linyuan's hand.
I heard that he went there? Emperor Wu and Eunuch Gao exchanged looks.
Concubine Oriole smiled. "If you ask me, the Holy Daughter of the Left and His Royal Highness are a match made in heaven. Your Majesty, don't you think so?"
Emperor Wu could tell that Concubine Oriole and Empress Dugu were working in tandem.
He immediately frowned and his face darkened. "Don't you know that the Crown Prince is engaged?"
Uh …
Everyone had heard about His Royal Highness's engagement ever since it was made public. However, whether it existed or not was one thing, and whether they believed it or not was another.
"Your Majesty … is the engagement between Feng Wu and His Royal Highness real?" Taking advantage of Emperor Wu's favor, Concubine Oriole mustered up the courage to ask the question.
Even the empress dowager, who hadn't said a word, turned to look at Emperor Wu with a solemn expression.
As for Emperor Wu's impression of Feng Wu …
If she had thought that Feng Wu and Zuo Qingluan were evenly matched before …
