Everyone realized that the Zuo family had given up on Jun Linyuan. No wonder Mrs. Zuo was here for Mrs. Hua's birthday party.
However, the look in Lady Tao's eyes was rather strange, and the outspoken Miss Tao asked the question directly. "Mrs. Zuo, is Zuo Qingluan really not going to court His Royal Highness anymore?" Miss Tao asked.
Mrs. Zuo's face turned livid. She threw a dirty look at Miss Tao.
Lady Tao nudged her daughter. Miss Tao said, "I'm only telling the truth. Last time on Zuo Qingluan's birthday, she said that the crown prince would definitely come, but..." Lady Tao glared at Miss Tao, who stopped talking in frustration.
However, Mrs. Zuo's face was livid by then, and she forced a smile. "Qingluan and the crown prince are childhood sweethearts, that's all. Nothing is certain. Plus, Qingluan is the future head of the Firmament Palace, and she doesn't have time for love."
Everyone chimed in, praising Zuo Qingluan and giving Mrs. Zuo an out. Only then did Mrs. Zuo become less angry.
Aunt Xi went up to Mrs. Hua and whispered, "Her Majesty the empress dowager is still 5km away."
Mrs. Hua nodded and said, "Her Majesty is coming. Please come with me." Those who were close to the Hua family knew the empress dowager would be here tonight, but many didn't. They were shocked when they heard the news. The empress dowager was here.
The most prestigious woman of the Junwu Empire had come to the Hua manor to celebrate Mrs. Hua's birthday. Did she think so highly of Mrs. Hua? The empress dowager was a very difficult person to get along with, so only a handful of noble ladies here could talk to her. But because His Majesty was a filial son, everyone wanted to get closer to the empress dowager. The noble ladies' eyes lit up when they heard the news, and they all had their own plans.
Feng Wu helped Mrs. Hua to her feet. The empress dowager was very friendly to Mrs. Hua, but she wouldn't talk to anyone else. She then looked at Feng Wu. Of course, to her, Feng Wu was Hua Wushuang. The empress dowager smiled and asked Mrs. Hua, "Has Wushuang made some progress recently?"
Mrs. Hua took the hint and smiled. "Ever since Your Majesty gave her the Celestial Spirit Bead, her cultivation level has improved significantly."
"What level is she now? Is she a Level-4 Spiritual King yet?" Her Majesty's eyes lit up.
Feng Wu was a little troubled... As a matter of fact, she was a Level-8 Spiritual King now. If the news got out, the empress dowager would probably be astonished.
However, before Feng Wu could say anything, Mrs. Hua grabbed her hand. She smiled and said, "She's indeed a..." Suddenly, Mrs. Hua's expression changed. She wasn't sensing the spiritual essence of a Level-4 Spiritual King, but a Level-8 one! Was she mistaken? Could her granddaughter be a Level-8 Spiritual King? "Wushuang, you're..." Mrs. Hua stared at Feng Wu in disbelief and forgot to speak.
The empress dowager looked at Mrs. Hua in bewilderment before turning to Granny Gui. Granny Gui nodded, stepped forward, and grabbed Feng Wu's wrist. Feng Wu had let her catch it on purpose. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to. "A Level-8 Spiritual King?!" Granny Gui cried out in surprise.
WHAT?! Everyone stared at Feng Wu in disbelief. A Level-8 Spiritual King?! Were they hearing things? She was a Level-8 Spiritual King!
"Ahem...'
