She sighed helplessly and said with mixed emotion, “I pity my concubine-mother. Her painstakingly effort was misunderstood by the whole nation that year. Everyone thought that she had snatched other people’s possession for herself when it was actually her concern for the civilians.”
Tang Zi remained silent, but she could feel the burning flame of anger in her heart.
No matter Feng Ruqing had changed or not, the Iron-Blooded Troop would never betray her and submit themselves to another person!
Why won’t she understand after so many years?
The rest of the troop members’ military morale had shaken except for Tang Zi’s.
After all, everyone had witnessed and was aware of Feng Ruqing’s bad behavior and misdeeds these past few years. She was capable of doing things mentioned by the second princess.
Looking at the signs of anxiety on their face, Feng Rushuang seemed rather grimly delighted. She sneered at them.
It was difficult to influence Tang Zi, but she could manipulate and waver the rest of the troop members’ minds. Once their morale was shaken, she would manage to have control over them. Then she would just change the troop commander, so it was not a big issue here.
“Stop talking nonsense!” Ling Yun flew into a rage out of embarrassment.
“Hehe!” Feng Rushuang chuckled in disdain and mocked, “”My concubine-mother has been the scapegoat for many years. Today, I am here to clear her name and let you all know who is the one who really cares for the people! Who is... the real master of the Iron-Blooded Token!”
That wretched fatty, Feng Ruqing was a good-for-nothing. She did not only snatch away her father and the affection that she deserved, but also the Iron-Blooded Token as well! She would never let this matter rest!
“The real master... of Iron Blooded Token?”
A giggling sound could be heard when the soft breeze blew at them. The sound was soft and gentle to the ear, but Feng Rushuang felt a chill run down her spine.
Feng Rushuang turned her head slowly to identify the source. Her eyes widened in shock.
It was almost sunset as the warm sunlight filled the small courtyard.
A young lady was standing at the entrance, and she was smiling sweetly. Her body was still considered fatter than the rest of the people. However, Feng Rushuang could not deny that she had lost some weight, and she looked prettier than before.
The young woman’s smile was warm like the sunlight–contagious and graceful.
“Sister!” Feng Rushuang quickly hid her shock and greeted Feng Ruqing like nothing had happened. She smiled sweetly and walked toward Feng Ruqing.
Her black orbs looked mesmerizing, bright, and clear. However, when one took a second look at them, they made people feel like there was nowhere to hide from those eyes.
“Why are you here? You haven’t dropped by the imperial palace for so many days, so I thought you have already forgotten about our Father. You did not even pay him a visit.”
Feng Ruqing smiled until her eyes were almost like two lines. “I have no choice. To share His Majesty’s burden and to able to solve his problems, I can only upgrade my ability. These few days, I have been too busy until I had no time to visit Father. Seems like I am not a filial daughter. But since Father loves me, I think he won’t mind about it.”
Feng Ruqing was indeed quite busy in her practice recently. At the same time, she was busy making herbal dishes as well. How was it possible for her to squeeze out time in between to pay her father a visit? She did not even step out of her princess manor these past few days.
Feng Rushuang’s smiling face turned stiff and awkward. “Sister, I did not mean that.”
“I did not mention anything.” Feng Ruqing looked shocked and confused. “Unless, I did say something that I shouldn’t have said just now? Rushuang, you’re just concerned about me, how could it be possible for me to misinterpret your words? Unless you do have such intention...”
Feng Rushuang felt she was going to explode soon and was about to hit her to death. However, she knew that she did not stand a chance against these people from the Iron-Blooded Troop, so she swallowed her anger.
“By the way, I heard you mentioning the master of Iron-Blooded Token just now?” Feng Ruqing suddenly asked solemnly. “Who told you that the Iron-Blooded Token has a master?’
Feng Rushuang’s face turned blank. She raised her head and looked at Feng Ruqing in confusion. “What do you mean, Sister?”
