Chapter 556 - Feng Tianlan Rages (1/2)
When she reached the outside of the main hall, she saw a huge crowd standing there. She frowned slightly but still came all the way out. She scanned her surroundings with cold eyes. Her gaze fell upon the eunuch who was holding the imperial edict. She started to become suspicious. He was the eunuch who followed the Beiqi Emperor closely.
When he saw Feng Tianlan, the imperial eunuch bowed and called out to her with respect, “Miss Feng.”
“Did Gu Nansheng send you?” Feng Tianlan’s eyes turned cold as she put her guard up. The dense crowd was blocking her view, so she couldn’t really see what was going on outside.
It was probably not Gu Nansheng who came looking for her, since the commotion was so chaotic.
Azurite was becoming defensive as well. She stood at the northwest of Feng Tianlan, prepared to block anyone from reaching Feng Tianlan at any moment.
“During these few days since Miss Feng’s departure from the palace, the emperor has been thinking about you. Hence, he has ordered me to read out this imperial edict and invite Miss Feng back to the palace.” The imperial eunuch did not seem to realize that Feng Tianlan’s expression had suddenly become cold and her face froze. He unfolded the imperial edict and began to read it out loud.
“Feng’er has left the palace for many days already. I miss our intimate nights very much. I can’t wait until Sheng’er’s wedding to invite you back into the palace. Therefore, I acted on my own and sent a phoenix sedan to invite you back to the palace. I will make you my imperial noble consort. Please accept this honor I wish to bestow on you. I hope Feng’er will return to the palace as soon as possible and accompany me day and night.”
As soon as the imperial edict was read, the crowd outside the inn became boisterous in an instant.
“What kind of imperial edict is this? These are just frivolous and obscene words.”
“Was Feng Tianlan’s fame during these six months built on the seduction of men?”
“Look at her attractive and seductive appearance! She was once the demon lady of South Winds Nation who ruined a country. In the end, she was taken down by the South Winds Nation’s Emperor. She must be here to bring disaster upon our Beiqi Nation.”
“We must definitely not let her enter the palace! We will not let her ruin the Beiqi Nation!”
“…”
In an instant, voices of resentment erupted from many people in the crowd.
