Numb feet? So many people had knelt before him for so long. Who wouldn't feel numb in their feet? Only the girl would say it out loud!
That was why Emperor Wu found the girl's frankness so adorable.
As an emperor of power, didn't he like silly, naive, and straightforward people who spoke their mind the most?
However, Emperor Wu wasn't going to let the girl get away with it, lest she went crazy.
Crossing his hands behind his back, Emperor Wu snorted with a straight face. "Is that what you call reverence?"
Feng Wu said solemnly, "Your Majesty, it's because I'm in awe of you!"
"Is that so?" Emperor Wu snorted.
"That's right, Your Majesty —" Feng Wu adjusted herself into a more comfortable position, then looked at Emperor Wu earnestly. "Your Majesty, my feet are indeed numb, but since you asked, I'd be lying to you if I made up an excuse.
"So, by reverence, I mean sincerity, frankness, and untrammeled sincerity. Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Emperor Wu didn't know what to say.
The chief steward looked up at Feng Wu and Emperor Wu and grumbled inwardly.
Your Majesty, you said you didn't want to listen, but both the atmosphere and your attitude toward Mao Dou have changed for the better. Do you know that?
The chief steward couldn't help but admire Feng Wu.
This child seemed to have a very strange aura around her. It was as if she had an innate relaxed attribute. No matter how angry a person was, their anger would fly away with just a few words from her.
Anyone else who had done what Feng Wu had done today would have been beaten with a paddle.
Emperor Wu didn't know what to do with Feng Wu either. The girl would listen obediently if you scolded her, but if you let your guard down a little, she would take advantage of the situation. However, when you glared at her, she would lower her head and look at you pitifully. It just so happened that the girl was so pretty that Emperor Wu didn't know what to do with her.
However, the heart of an emperor was unfathomable. No one knew what a Martial Emperor was thinking, not even Feng Wu.
Before he knew it, a new chair had been brought in.
Emperor Wu took his seat and glanced at Feng Wu, trying to decide how to punish the girl.
Sincerity, huh?
Emperor Wu thought of Jun Linyuan.
Just then, Master Bai said all of a sudden, "Miss Wu, you're very close to His Royal Highness, right?"
A chill ran down Feng Wu's spine. Master Bai's revenge had come so quickly.
Emperor Wu's stomach lurched.
Jun Linyuan was the prince he valued the most … Moreover, Xiao Bai's words seemed to be implying something.
Emperor Wu recalled that piece of jade.
According to the empress dowager, that piece of jade was very important. Given Jun Linyuan's coldness, he would never give it away. And it had to be Feng Wu?
Emperor Wu found it strange.
What if Jun Linyuan liked her? Emperor Wu was the first to doubt it.
So, it should be the lass in front of him …
"Feng Wu, did you just say that reverence is a sincere, honest, and undeceived heart?"
"That's true."
"Tell me, what do you think of Jun Linyuan then?"
Jun Linyuan?!
The mere mention of Jun Linyuan irritated Feng Wu!
How many times had he set her up, from Northern Border City to the city, and then to the imperial capital? Too many to count!
Now that Jun Linyuan's father was here, Feng Wu wanted to tell on him!
But!
