332 Untitled (2/2)
Meng Fuyao suddenly felt her eyes water.
For the progress of her life.
She had come so far and gone through countless obstacles and tribulations to reach where she was.
Taking a deep breath, she raised her head and walked up the steps,
Meng Fuyao snorted coldly and headed straight for the palace.
No longer was she going to be controlled by others, from now on, nobody was allowed to block her path!
Within the inner palace and the heavy tapestry hung low. As usual, a single lamp was lit, its flame flickering like a phantom. Meng Fuyao and Zhangsun Wuji's footsteps resounded across the gold-tiled floor, reverberating through the hall.
Meng Fuyao barged straight through, not stopping as she went through screen after screen until she reached the final screen, a flimsy, silk screen.
A glow came from behind it.
Through the translucent screen, two silhouettes could be seen, one sitting up, the other lying down. Their heads were inclined towards each other, and they looked to be extremely close.
Upon hearing footsteps, the one sitting up raised her head and let out a giggle. ”Here already?”
The person's tone was casual and expectant as if she had been waiting for Meng Fuyao for a long time as if Meng Fuyao were an honored guest who had arrived from afar, and she was the passionate host who had been waiting for her guest.
Of course, this voice was extremely familiar, as well.
Meng Fuyao smiled as she replied, ”Since you're here, how could I not come?”
The person giggled and said, ”I'll have to bother you to open the screen yourself, I'm not in a convenient position to do so.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
Meng Fuyao pushed open the screen noiselessly. A yellow lamp cast the room in a faint, dusky glow, shining upon the person as she raised her head and smiled.
Eyebrows perfectly arched like a crescent moon, poised and elegant, white robes with the faint embroidery of lotuses, carrying herself with an ethereal air, her eyes peaceful and serene without a trace of tainting from the mundane world.
Feng Jingfan.
Meng Fuyao gazed fixedly at her, and after a while, she let out a long sigh and murmured, ”This world is truly irritating, some people are just like cockroaches, unkillable.”
”You're right.” Feng Jingfan chuckled. ”Truly irritating.”
Immediately upon hearing her voice, Meng Fuyao gave a barfing expression and retched. Then, she hastily apologized, ”Sorry about that, I feel like vomiting every time I see you. Hope I didn't dirty this place of yours? Actually, I don't think I would have since this place is dirtier than cow shit.”
”It's alright.” Feng Jingfan remained as cordial as ever, giving the person lying down a shoulder massage. ”You've always managed to dirty wherever you've been.”
”That's true.” Meng Fuyao smiled. ”But it's better than being born dirty.” Her gaze traveled down to the old man who seemed to be enjoying the massage very much. ”Are you not dead yet?” she asked sweetly.
Feng Xuan opened his eyes and stared at her hazily for several moments, then let out a sigh and did not say anything.
”You'll have the chance to reconcile with him,” said Feng Jingfan. ”In hell.”
”That's where you should be going, I'm not going to snatch it from you.”
”I'll say, why are we arguing here right now? It's what the wretched commonfolk do.” Feng Jingfan suddenly smiled coyly and said, ”Dear respected King Meng, let us talk about serious matters.”
”Oh?” Meng Fuyao beamed and sat down. ”Do you think that there could be any serious matters worthy of discussion between us?”
”Hand over that little stamp you have in your robes.” Feng Jingfan smiled slightly. ”As long as I stamp upon a certain decree, it will be settled.”
”I'll say, Your Grace,” Meng Fuyao's leg swayed nonchalantly as she spoke. ”Shouldn't you be holding the Royal Scepter in your left hand and the Imperial Jade Seal in your right?
”Wasn't it that good-for-nothing Sixth Sister of mine who had stolen the Imperial Jade Seal?” Feng Jingfan smiled and continued, ”How nosy, the Imperial Jade Seal will belong to whomever who is supposed to own it, it's useless even if you take it.”
”Who said so? Taking it has its uses, at the very least, I can destroy it whenever I want to,” Meng Fuyao immediately pulled out an imperial yellow pouch from her robes and pinched it lightly.
Thereafter, powdery jade fragments landed in a pile on the ground.
Looking at the pile of jade fragments, Feng Jingfan's face finally changed. Then, she laughed coldly and said, ”Very good, very good, truly the number one madwoman of the Five Regions Continent, destroying the Imperial Jade Seal… you really did it.”
