Yun Hong walked to her side and said with a smile, “Little girl, it’s better to not decide on this marriage for now. This way, Grandfather will have enough time to prepare the dowry for you. Although your parents are not here, Grandfather will definitely not let you suffer in the dowry. You don’t need to be too anxious.”

Feng Yu looked at him suspiciously. Grandfather didn’t seem to be unhappy at all. Furthermore, he actually told her not to be too anxious.

Feng Yu’s eyes moved. How could she be anxious? What did Long Zixuan say to Grandfather? He actually comforted her not to be anxious.

When had she ever been anxious?

She turned her head to look at Long Zixuan and saw him looking at her with his eyebrows raised. His bewitching eyes revealed an unfathomable light. She quickly looked away and nodded at Yun Hong, “Grandfather, I understand.”

“Yes, it’s good that you understand. Little girl, Grandfather is tired. Go and sleep for a while. You have to greet Little Zixuan well.”

As Yun Hong spoke, he yawned. Feng Yu’s head was full of black lines when she saw this. She finally understood who this body’s narcolepsy was inherited from.

With such a grandpa who loved to sleep, she was gloriously passed down from generation to generation.

Yun Hong looked at Long Zixuan again and said, “Little Zixuan, I’ll go to sleep then.”

Long Zixuan smiled and nodded. He said, “Okay, I’ll go.”

Feng Yu looked at Yun Hong’s back until the door closed. Only then did she walk to Long Zixuan’s side with small steps. She lowered her voice and asked suspiciously, “Long Zixuan, what exactly did you say to Grandfather?”

How could he have changed so much in the blink of an eye?

Long Zixuan’s eyebrows twitched as he said, “If you want to know, you can ask Grandfather.”

Feng Yu…

He was getting more and more curious as to why this guy was so stingy. Wasn’t he a mouth? Couldn’t he speak? Why couldn’t he tell her? It was better if she asked Yun Hong.

Feng Yu snorted and said, “I suddenly don’t want to know anymore.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked out. Long Zixuan followed her without changing his expression.

The weather was clear and the sun was warm.

Feng Yu and Long Zixuan walked side by side in the corridor of the General’s Estate. They saw the First Lady Su Ruxin walking out and her personal maidservant following behind her.

A trace of suspicion flashed across Feng Yu’s eyes. What kind of stimulation did the First Lady have? Why was she dressed so extravagantly today? She looked like a vixen. Who was she trying to seduce?

To be honest, the First Lady’s dressing was really quite interesting. She was already in her thirties and was in the prime of her life. With her good looks, even a woman like her was tempted by her.

Su Ruxin seemed to have seen Feng Yu and Long Zixuan. She immediately walked over with a smile. “Greetings, Lord Si.”

As the First Lady spoke, she obediently knelt on the ground. Long Zixuan glanced at Feng Yu and said calmly before Su Ruxin knelt down, “No need. We are now family. When Madam Yun sees me in the future, she doesn’t need to kneel down.”

“Thank you, Master Si.”

Su Ru Shen’s body, which hadn’t kneeled down, straightened up. She smiled and thanked Long Zixuan. She seemed to be in a very good mood. She looked at Feng Yu and affectionately held her hand. She said, “Feng Er, how does this dress look? Is it nice?”

After she finished speaking, two blushes appeared on her face.

Feng Er…

Feng Yu almost choked herself to death. Was this First Lady possessed by a ghost? When had they become so intimate? And First Lady? Shouldn’t she call herself First Lady when she talked to her?

“It’s nice.”

She replied indifferently and took her hand from Su Ru Shen’s hand. She looked at Su Ru Shen again and twitched her mouth. Then, she turned around and left. Long Zixuan immediately followed her.

Su Ru Shen looked at Feng Yu and Long Zixuan leave in a daze. She suddenly sighed and said regretfully, “Ah, if I knew that this girl was so promising, I should have treated her better. Now, I can’t even fawn over her.”

The maid didn’t dare to say anything. She lowered her head so low that it was almost touching the ground. Su Ru Shen looked at her and said, “Let’s go. I still have something to prepare.”

“Yes, Madam.”

The maid replied softly and obediently followed behind her.

“Long Zixuan, tell me, is First Lady in love?”

Feng Yu tilted her head and stared ahead. She didn’t even look back as she talked to Long Zixuan. Long Zixuan glanced at her and said, “General Yun is coming back.”

After he said that, Feng Yu turned around and looked at him. She raised her eyebrows and said, “What did you say? General Yun is coming back?”

Long Zixuan nodded.

Feng Yu sneered. So it was like that. No wonder Su Renshen was so gorgeous. It was because Yun Zhanfeng was coming back. It had been three years since he came back.

She hadn’t seen her husband for three years. She must have been madly missing him.

Feng Yu suddenly started to sympathize with Su Renshen and Liu Qinghe. No wonder they were so perverted. They always liked to bully Yun Ningruo. It was because they didn’t have a man to love them. That was why they were so crazy.

They were married, but their husbands never came back. They only came back once every few years. Every time they came back, they would stay for a few days and then leave.

It was rare that they couldn’t bear the loneliness and went out with other men. If it was any other woman, they would have brought Yun Zhanfeng so many cuckolds over the years.

Because of this, there was something good about these two wives.

Feng Yu squinted her eyes and looked at Long Zixuan. She said, “When will he come back? Is it the Emperor’s summon?”

“Probably tomorrow afternoon. General Yun came back because he has important things to do. The Heaven Awaken Empire sent an ambassador to see the Emperor, so General Yun is responsible for escorting the ambassador to the Imperial Capital.”

Long Zixuan’s voice sounded out. Feng Yu nodded and said, “Long Zixuan, I have something to tell you.”

Long Zixuan looked at her but didn’t say anything. However, he was waiting for her to say something. Feng Yu opened her mouth and said softly, “I plan to go back to the academy in the next two days.”

She had been out for more than ten days. Although Ye Qian and Lei Lie were in charge of the Palace of the Phoenix, she still needed to go back and take a look. She couldn’t just leave it all to them. After all, she had spent a lot of effort to build it.

Furthermore, the Wolong Guild wanted to cooperate with her. She needed to solve this as soon as possible. She couldn’t just leave it to them.

Apart from that, she was still a high-level disciple in the academy. She needed to go back and show her face. Otherwise, who knew if the other elders and disciples would think that she had met with misfortune?

After she finished speaking, Long Zixuan’s expression became unsightly. He said, “No.”

Feng Yu frowned. He was really domineering. She sighed and said, “I really have something to do.”

“You can’t do anything if you have something to do. You can ask the Scarlet Shadow Guards to help you.” Long Zixuan said unhappily, “After General Yun comes back, the Emperor will definitely welcome the Heaven Awaken Empire’s ambassador. The palace banquet is inevitable. You can go with me.”

How could he let the Chi Ying Guards handle the matter of the Phoenix Palace?

Feng Yu looked at him helplessly and said, “Didn’t you also attend the previous palace banquet alone?” Why did he have to ask her to accompany him this time?

She didn’t believe that he suddenly had social phobia and was afraid of that kind of occasion. That was why he asked her to accompany him.

“It’s different this time.”

Long Zixuan looked at her with his dark eyes. It was probably because she had rejected him continuously that his peerless face was obviously unhappy.

“How is it different?” Feng Yu asked in confusion. Could it be that he wanted to announce it to the public because they were together?

Long Zixuan pursed his lips and looked at her without saying anything.

Feng Yu moved and asked tentatively, “Will something happen to you in the palace banquet this time?”

Long Zixuan nodded and hummed.

She had guessed it right. There was definitely something wrong. She looked at him suspiciously and said, “What will happen to you? Tell me.”

Besides, since he knew that something would happen to him that day, he should have already thought of a solution. Since that was the case, why did he bring her along?

“You’ll know when the time comes.”

He looked at her with his dark eyes. He was actually keeping her in suspense. Feng Yu humphed. This stingy guy! What could she do to him now?

It was too annoying to keep her in suspense.

She humphed and said, “If you don’t want to talk about it, then forget it. When is the Palace Banquet going to be held?”

“Three days later,” Long Zixuan’s voice sounded indifferently. “The ambassador of the Heaven Enlightening Empire has been rushing for a long time. When he arrives at the Imperial Capital, he will be exhausted. The Emperor will definitely wait until they are well rested before holding the Palace Banquet.”

After a pause, Long Zixuan continued, “The Emperor will definitely invite you to participate in the Palace Banquet. Even if you go to the academy, he will send someone to call you back.”

“Really?” Feng Yu frowned and looked at Long Zixuan with suspicion. “Why does the Emperor want me to participate? Could it be that something related to me will happen that day?”

“That’s right.”

Long Zixuan’s eyes flashed with a dark light. If the Heaven Enlightening Empire wanted to seek their own death, he didn’t mind killing the Eleventh Empire.

Long Zixuan was right. The next afternoon, General Yun arrived at the Imperial Palace with the ambassador of the Heaven Enlightening Empire. He then led a group of people back to the General’s Mansion. The Second Young Master of the General’s Mansion, Yun Yifan, followed them.

Su Ranshen and Liu Qinghe led the servants of the General’s Mansion and were waiting at the entrance. Even Yun Hong was waiting at the entrance with Feng Yu.

No matter how useless Yun Zhanfeng was, he was still his son. They hadn’t seen each other for more than ten years, and Yun Hong missed him very much.
