It was Feng Wu!

Emperor Wu couldn’t feel any happier when he said those words.

He successfully shocked his mother.

She turned around and stared at Emperor Wu.

It took her a while to find her voice. “What did you say?”

Emperor Wu laughed. “Mother, didn’t you say you want Junjun to marry a girl with the most precious bloodline? You don’t need to search anymore. She’s right over there at Feng manor.”

The empress dowager rolled her eyes at Emperor Wu. “I don’t believe you!”

Emperor Wu said, “You don’t have a choice now.

“Feng Wu has the Divine Phoenix Blood, which is what you were asking for.”

The empress dowager wouldn’t believe it.

She asked for the Divine Phoenix Blood, and her son immediately found it for her.

“I’ll never believe it!” The empress dowager snorted.

Emperor Wu said, “Mother, it doesn’t matter. Everybody else believes it because it’s the truth.”

The empress dowager glared at him.

She didn’t believe it at first, but both the emperor and the empress had said so, and the empress dowager felt uneasy. She told Granny Zhu and Granny Lan, “Ask around and see what this is about!”

They were her oldest maids, so she trusted them.

She was holding on to her last bit of hope.

It was such a struggle.

She couldn’t imagine that Feng Wu could have the Divine Phoenix Blood.

If that was true, she would be utterly humiliated.

She turned the prayer beads in her hands and said a silent prayer.

Empress Dugu gave her a pitying look.

She wished the empress dowager would stop being in denial and end this nonsense. She was going to explode.

Granny Zhu and Granny Lan soon came back.

Granny Zhu looked very pale and seemed to have lost all hope.

Granny Lan, on the other hand, was in high spirits.

The empress dowager asked Granny Zhu first. “What have you learned? Tell me!”

Granny Zhu said, “Well…”

The empress dowager had a bad feeling and turned to Granny Lan.

Granny Lan nodded at her.

She couldn’t be any clearer.

Boom!

The empress dowager felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her mind went blank.

She pointed at Emperor Wu. “Is Feng Wu really…”

Emperor Wu nodded solemnly. “Yes, mother. Feng Wu has the Divine Phoenix Blood. No one’s bloodline is as precious as hers.”

It was such a blow to the old lady.

The girl had the most precious bloodline…

The empress dowager’s lips trembled. “I need some time to think. Leave me alone now!”

Emperor Wu paused after taking a few steps. “Mother, I received news that most of the nine families and four forces are interested in the Divine Phoenix Blood. They’re all coming to the imperial capital with their marriage proposal gifts. You won’t have much time to think.”

The empress dowager shouted, “How dare they?!”
