Chapter 90 Feng Xiran Goes to Yilin

Jing Sa's letter did convey some information about gunpowder, but many details were not disclosed.

Feng Xiran felt relieved, estimating that Jing Sa might have only a vague understanding of these matters. Fortunately, Mu Xin was cautious enough.

"What exactly does Jing Sa want to do?"

This was something Feng Xiran couldn't understand. She always felt that Jing Sa did not have harmful intentions toward her. Her intuition was usually accurate, so she also discussed her insights with the system.

Jing Sa arrived at the Yilin Palace, which was resplendent in gold and jade. This palace was even more luxurious than Feng Tianhuang's palace and was more opulent than Feng Xiran's early palace, showing the owner's extravagance.

As the Crown Prince led him inside, Emperor Jing Yu of Yilin was sitting on the dragon throne in the main hall, with Empress Yan by his side.

Jing Yu was leaning to one side, holding Empress Yan's waist. Empress Yan leaned tightly against him. Some maidservants stood by with wine cups and fruits. Empress Yan coquettishly picked a grape, and Jing Yu watched her with a smile as she put it in her mouth and even licked her juice-covered fingers.

The Crown Prince seemed used to this, and respectfully announced Jing Sa's arrival.

Jing Yu came back to his senses and turned his gaze to Jing Sa. Empress Yan, understanding the situation, signaled to a maid. Jing Yu spat out the peel and seeds into her hand, and another maid quickly wiped his mouth with a handkerchief.

Seeing Jing Sa's face, Jing Yu was momentarily stunned, mumbling, "You look so much like your mother. I often miss her."

Empress Yan's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but she still maintained a smiling demeanor.

Jing Sa looked at him disdainfully, feeling a surge of disgust. This father-son emotional display seemed so hypocritical to him.

Having been away from Yilin for years, Jing Sa had long forgotten what his father looked like. Now, seeing this bloated and hollow figure with dark circles under his eyes, he thought it was a pathetic sight.

He frowned imperceptibly, feeling pity that his mother had married such a beast. He felt it was unfair for her.

Jing Yu, observing Jing Sa's indifferent demeanor and ignoring his attempts at affection, recalled his own frustrations with Jing Sa's mother. He thought to himself, cursing, "Just like that lowly woman, putting on an air of superiority."

The more he looked, the more displeased he became. He frowned and scolded, "After being away from Tian Feng for so many years, you've become increasingly unruly. You don't even kneel to your father?"

Jing Sa replied coldly, "In Tianfeng, it is indeed not customary for children to kneel before the ruler."

Indeed, Jing Sa rarely knelt before Feng Tianhuang in Tianfeng. Even Feng Xiran and Feng Muqing rarely kneeled. Feng Tianhuang's authority did not need such displays from her daughters.

Hearing this, Emperor Jing Yu almost broke the armrest of his dragon throne.

Empress Yan gave him a reassuring glance and gently drew circles on his palm.

Thinking about the messages Jing Sa had sent, Jing Yu suppressed his anger and tried to act kindly toward Jing Sa.

"Since you're back, let's follow our customs."

Jing Sa remained silent and looked at the Crown Prince with a puzzled expression, as if questioning why the Crown Prince and other princes didn't kneel.
