Empress Dugu smiled. “When Qingluan came to see me earlier, she mentioned that she was going to Wandering Temple. So...”

‘The empress dowager’s eyes lit up. She grabbed Empress Dugu’s hand and said excitedly, “If that’s true, then she’s definitely the most blessed girl in the empire. Master Linghu is never wrong!”

Emperor Wu found their conversation idiotic.

He just didn’t get it. Why was Zuo Qingluan everywhere when they never saw her?

For instance, Jun Linyuan was at Fallen Star Yard tonight, but the rumor was that he was madly in love with Zuo Qingluan and would announce their engagement tonight. How unbelievable!

Also, Feng Wu was invited by Master Linghu to be the first precant of the year, but everyone was saying that Zuo Qingluan was the most blessed girl. Why?

It seemed that Zuo Qingluan had been very busy!

Emperor Wu had thought highly of Zuo Qingluan before because of her True Phoenix Blood and the fact that she was the sacred lady of Firmament Palace. Now, however, he had a different opinion of her.

He glanced at Gao.

Gao immediately took the hint. The emperor wanted to know where the rumors came from.

He wished Miss Zuo good luck.

While they were still chatting, Jun Wuxia came back.

She had been invited to Zuo Qingluan’s party tonight, and had taken a walk afterward. Only then did she come back in a bad mood.

She greeted Emperor Wu, Empress Dugu and the empress dowager, and was going to leave.

Empress Dugu adored her daughter, so when she saw that Jun Wuxia looked upset, she couldn’t help asking, “Xia, what’s wrong? Weren’t you at the birthday party? Did someone upset you? How was it? Did Jun Linyuan announce the engagement?”

“Mother!” Jun Wuxia didn’t want to be reminded of what happened. “It was such a humiliation!”

‘The empress dowager didn’t really like Jun Wuxia, but she frowned when she heard the complaint. “What happened? Did someone disrespect the crown prince at the party?”

All this time, Junjun was the only one she cared about.

Jun Wuxia said, “Who would dare do that? Obviously, it was my brother who did something.”

“Did His Royal Highness upset Miss Qingluan?” Concubine Oriole asked.

Everyone looked at Jun Wuxia expectantly.

Jun Wuxia said, “Yes! Miss Qingluan was so angry!”

‘The empress dowager’s heart sank.

Jun Wuxia said, “My brother was never there! No one knows where he was tonight! We searched everywhere, but we never found him!”

Emperor Wu wanted to tell them that he knew the answer.

Of course, he didn’t do that. For some reason, he was quite happy.

Concubine Oriole, Empress Dugu, and the empress dowager cried out in unison, “He wasn’t there?!”
