Everyone had heard about Jun Wuxia’s crush on Feng Xun!
The fact that she was head over heels in love with him was public knowledge. Therefore, everyone believed what Feng Xun said.
However, Jun Wuxia yelled, “Feng Xun! You’re lying! That’s just a load of crap!”
Feng Xun gave her an awkward look. “Your Royal Highness, I told you then that I found the fish on the ground and it wasn’t edible, and what did you say? You said that you would throw it away for me.
“However!” Feng Xun’s tone changed, and he stared at Jun Wuxia in disbelief. “How could you give something you were supposed to throw away to Her Majesty?!”
That was a very serious accusation!
It suggested that Jun Wuxia was deliberately trying to harm the empress dowager!
Immediately, everyone stared at her in disbelief!
Jun Wuxia was too shocked to speak as well!
She had no idea how to refute Feng Xun and could only shake her head repeatedly. “No, it wasn’t like that. You’re lying!”
Feng Xun spoke in a sorry tone as he stared at her. “Your Royal Highness, you knew perfectly well that I was the one who gave you the roast fish, but you tried to blame Feng Wu first, and when you saw that it wasn’t going to work, you tried to frame me instead. But the truth is that you knew all along that the fish was found on the side of the road and wasn’t clean. How could you let Her Majesty eat it? Did you think you can use Her Majesty’s power to kill Feng Wu? My princess, I’m so disappointed in you!”
Jun Wuxia was astonished.
Feng Xun then turned to Emperor Wu and said solemnly, “Your Majesty, I’m telling nothing but the truth! I swear!”
Jun Wuxia shrieked, “No! It wasn’t like that! You’re lying!”
Feng Xun stared at her. “How was that a lie?”
Jun Wuxia shouted, “You lied about finding the fish by the side of the road! Feng Wu might still be the actual cook!”
Feng Xun said, “Your Royal Highness, why won’t you just admit it? You’ve seen how well Feng Wu can cook. How can she possibly make something like this?”
Jun Wuxia said, “In that case, maybe you roasted the fish!”
Now that her interests were concerned, she didn’t care about Feng Xun anymore.
Feng Xun stared at her in disbelief. “I roasted the fish? With someone like Feng Wu around, why would I do such a thing? Are you even listening to yourself?”
Jun Wuxia was speechless.
She had completely run out of excuses. Nothing she said seemed to work, and her words only incriminated her further.
Staring at Jun Wuxia, Emperor Wu was furious.
How could he have such a stupid daughter?
Jun Wuxia was still yelling. “How good can Feng Wu’s roast fish be? It’s nothing out of the ordinary!”
The others all gave her strange looks.
Nothing out of the ordinary?
It just so happened that —
“Oh, no!”
Feng Xun suddenly cried out in surprise.
Everyone turned to look at him.
“Sorry, Your Majesty —”
As soon as Feng Xun sat down, the others heard a faint buzzing sound.
That was —
They all stared at Feng Xun in disbelief!
He was about to make a breakthrough!
Emperor Wu was surprised as well. What a coincidence!
