She didn't dare keep it a secret anymore. "Caiyue said it! She said that Xiao Wu is dead!"
"But it's not on the paper." Lady Northern Feng smiled. "Which one of you is lying? Guards! "
Lady Wang stared at Lady Northern Feng in a panic.
With a wave of her hand, Lady Northern Feng said, "Take those two away!"
"Lady Northern Feng, you can't do this! I'm a fourth-ranked lady in the imperial court. I … "
"You're suspected of spreading false rumors, disrupting society, and destabilizing the nation! If the minister asks, I'll tell him! Escort Lady Wang to the prison of the Ministry of Punishments! "
Lady Wang was dumbfounded!
How …
How was that possible …
She had made up a false rumor about Feng Wu's death, and she was going to be sent to the Ministry of Punishments? She was the wife of the minister of the Ministry of Official Personnel!
However, no matter how much Lady Wang complained, no matter how reluctant she was, no one had ever changed Lady Northern Feng's mind.
Feng Liu didn't say a word when she saw Lady Wang being taken away … She simply ran away.
Seeing Feng Liu like that, Lady Northern Feng shook her head.
Luckily, Ning Chenxi had made a mistake. Otherwise, the entire Ning family would be ruined if he married a girl like her.
Some of Lady Wang's people were taken away, while others ran away. Soon, peace and quiet returned to Fallen Star Yard.
However, the people of Fallen Star Yard now looked at Lady Northern Feng with more gratitude and awe.
Lady Wang was still a child, and naturally wouldn't say words of gratitude. Hence, Granny Zhao thanked Lady Northern Feng on her behalf.
"Your Ladyship, it's all thanks to you. Otherwise, we …"
"That's not a big deal." Lady Northern Feng waved her hand and said generously, "Xiao Wu is my goddaughter. We're family, so there's no need to be so polite. Plus, if Xiao Wu comes back and finds out that I didn't protect you, she'll hate me. "
Qiuling said, "Miss Wu will come back, won't she? I'm sure she will. "
Lady Northern Feng said confidently, "I wouldn't be so sure if His Majesty had sent someone else in, but it's His Royal Highness. If you don't trust Xiao Wu, don't you trust His Royal Highness? "
Qiuling, however, was still worried. So what if he was the crown prince? His Royal Highness didn't like her family's Young Miss. Would he really care about her safety? The more he thought about it, the more worried he became.
"There's still that brat of mine!" Lady Northern Feng knew how much Feng Xun treasured his sister, and Xiao Wu would be his first priority.
Currently, the Imperial Capital was in a state of anxiety and panic.
All the pressure was on Grand Secretary Fang.
In the Imperial Palace —
"Cough, cough, cough, cough —"
Grand Secretary Fang went to report to His Majesty, but he couldn't stop coughing as he spoke.
"Minister Fang, take it easy."
Emperor Wu told the chief steward to give Grand Secretary Fang a seat.
"I know you're under a lot of pressure right now, and it's really bad luck for you to have this happen as soon as you've taken office. But don't worry, the crown prince is inside. With him around, nothing will happen," Emperor Wu said with a smile.
Grand Secretary Fang heaved a long sigh. "It wouldn't be a big deal if what the information said was true. But the voice I heard before the call was cut off told me that it was more than just a king level beast … This Frosty Night Beast might have mutated."
