Miracle Doctor, Abandoned Daughter: The Sly Emperor's Wild Beast-Tamer Empress

Chapter 489: The Phoenix Manor's Future Mistress

Feng Shen, I-I will go by myself. Under the clear thumping of the mans heart, Ling Yue quickly found her own rhythm also speeding up as well.

Be good, you still have injuries on your body. Caressing her hair, Feng Shens gaze gradually shifted over to the market in search of something.

The girl mentioned something about wanting to eat earlier so thats exactly what they would do. Bringing her along, the pair soon disappeared into the darkness of the night.

Oh what a perfect match those two are.. These were the shop ladys impression of them both. However, that warming thought soon changed to shock and elation, Wait, he said the Phoenix Manor, hes the Phoenix Lord!

Years later when this shop owner has earned quite a reputation for being reliable and trustworthy in her makeup products, the lady would still often mention how much of a perfect match Ling Yue and Feng Shen was when they visited her business. This was true even when the couple became a fabled loving legend of North Qing.

While the sweet boy and girl was having their dreamy date out in the streets, the palace on the other hand was going in full throttle with its banquet.

For the Sacred Maidan Xue Pian Ran, this would be a long night indeed. Shes been waiting for the Phoenix Manors carriage to arrive, yet. Well, without surprise, it didnt show up as per the news she received, thrusting the girls heart into a numbing chill.

That person, the one thats important to Feng Shen, did she take the lotus flower yet..

To say Xue Pian Ran wasnt worried inside was a big fat lie. She claims she knows her fianc well, but that notion was starting to sway lately like hes become a distant person altogether. This idea only got more pronounced after listening to Princess Qing Bis story.

Sure, she would so dearly want to remove herself from the palace and run to the one in her heart, but among the guests here arent just the delegation party from Da Xia, theres also members of some smaller nations and sects as well. As the Sacred Maiden of the Dan Palace, its a given that she must show her face tonight.

Sister Pian Ran, how come you are so late?

Unlike her idolized counterpart whose wardrobe gave off a beautiful mystique with that veil covering the lower half of the face, Princess Qing Bis dress could only be called lavishing. Rosy red like a radiant flower, shes very fitting to be a princess if one could minus that terrible temperament.

The Dan Palace had something to do so I was delayed, carrying smile on her face still, Xua Pian Ran hurries to scan the area. Sadly for her, she couldnt find any traces of anyone from the Phoenix Manor.

Perhaps its like Mr. Mu says, his body is unwell so he didnt come. Besides, he never did like such lively events.

After retracting her gaze, Xue Pian Ran suddenly pulled the princess closer to examine the girl for details. Though theyve been conversing the entire way thus far, the maiden knew her friends attention was never with them like its flown elsewhere altogether.

To get to the bottom of this, she did the next reasonable thing and followed Qing Bis line of sight. Now thats when she came eye to eye with a handsome young fella of good standing, thus giving her the answer in which she seeks.

Princess, you are looking absolutely divine today. Can it be something nice has happened today? She teases her friend, looking for some amusement.

Oh quit teasing me Sister Pian Ran, blushing with shyness, Qing Bi looks away all embarrassingly.

Oh right, why didnt Brother Feng Shen come with you tonight? I heard he is not feeling well so I thought you would go see him and then come together.

Its not like you dont know his temper. When hes not well he wont let anyone near him. Moody in her voice, the Sacred Maiden clearly resented this fact.

Its not like the girl didnt want to do that, in fact, she intend to do so right after this feast.

This was not the first time Xue Pian Ran grew worried over the boys sickness. Way back when they were younger, she and Cong Lue were very worried once and tried to make contact. Unfortunately, that was a terrible mistake.

Before they could even make it past the courtyard, a huge table had come flying at them both from within, scaring the wits out of them.

Scram! Those were the only words they heard from Feng Shen back then, and it was unusually cold and menacing as well.

You need to be careful Sister Pian Ran. I heard Brother Feng Shens been clung onto by a bad woman from Da Xia. Even worse, that person even followed him here to North Qing and is now living at his place. As his fianc, you need to be on the lookout. Thinking back to the stories Hong Ming Yue and the others were whispering into her ear, Qing Bis complexion instantly turned serious.

You girl, always with your gossiping. I believe Feng Shen isnt like that. As for that person, it may not be like you think. Perhaps they are just friends coming for a visit.

As the Sacred Maiden of a major organization, theres bound to be some layer to her upbringing. As such, her views arent as narrow as this princess.

If living in the Phoenix Manor is nothing, then what about the Phoenix Edict? I saw it with my own eyes before. If you dont believe me, go ask Cong Lu, he saw it too.

This time Xue Pian Ran could no longer remain unfazed. She knew exactly what the item meant and what it signified.

Cong Lu, is what Qing Bi said true? The girls voice may still sound pleasant to the ear, but as childhood friends with each other, they could clearly tell shes angry.

Pian Ran, are you asking about the matter of living at the Phoenix Manor or the Phoenix Edict? Regarding this Sacred Maidens requests, this captain of the royal guards could never refuse it.

Nevertheless, he didnt need to because the girl already knew the answer by the way of his answering.

You knew all along didnt you Cong Lu? Such an important person and you didnt bring her to the banquet, or did you intend to wait until Feng Shen personally showed her to me instead? Gritting her teeth, this tense appearance was very unlike her.

You mustnt be angry Sister Pian Ran, that woman isnt even qualified to participate in the palace banquet so of course she wouldnt be here. Furthermore, shes also not part of Da Xias delegation party. Qing Bi had intended to spill even more juicy bits until Cong Lu stopped it by pulling the girl away and dumping her next to Xia Hou Qis side.

The banquet may be lavishing in its setup with fine food and exquisite guests, but without the proper company, nothing would taste good. This was especially true for the Sacred Maiden here until she noticed a set of eyes thats been staring at her.
