Chapter 1359: Fengmo Gets Jealous Again!
Feng Fuce spoke to this point, and shook his head with some helplessness.
"How can I help? They don’t know the identity of the female officer, but I do."
"Am I supposed to take action against my mother-in-law?"
Bai Zhi’er’s laughter suddenly stopped.
Her fair face suddenly turned red: "Does my mother agree to you calling her that?"
Feng Fuce raised an eyebrow: "She didn’t say she disagreed."
Bai Zhi’er guessed her mother didn’t know about this at all!
The carriage stopped outside the Chu Residence.
Bai Zhi’er and Feng Fuce got off the carriage together, and a familiar voice came—
"Princess!"
Bai Zhi’er turned to see Jun Kuang smiling warmly, walking quickly toward them.
Jun Kuang was still wearing his official robe, presumably he didn’t have time to change and hurried to the wedding banquet.
Bai Zhi’er was initially a bit surprised as to why Jun Kuang was here.
But upon seeing his official robe, she suddenly understood that Jun Kuang was the new top scholar, and served in the domain overseen by Lord Chu.
Therefore, he must have been invited by the Chu Family.
"Brother A Kuang!" Bai Zhi’er waved her hand and walked forward with a smile.
Jun Kuang hadn’t seen her for several days, his usually calm and gentle eyes now filled with unrestrained happiness.
"I’ve been so busy lately, I haven’t visited the Wen Mansion for a while."
Jun Kuang chuckled: "Everything at Wen Mansion is fine, even if Your Highness is busy, there is no need to worry."
"I work during the day and return to the Wen Mansion at night. Whatever the scholars need, I will handle it."
Bai Zhi’er breathed a sigh of relief and sincerely said: "With Brother A Kuang around, I certainly save a lot of trouble."
"By the way, Your Highness, recently I bought a small house and wanted to..."
Jun Kuang hadn’t finished speaking when Feng Fuce suddenly grabbed Bai Zhi’er’s hand.
"The wedding banquet is about to start, let’s go in first," he said indifferently.
Bai Zhi’er immediately nodded and smiled at Jun Kuang: "Let’s talk later!"
After that, she followed Feng Fuce into the Chu Residence.
Feng Fuce didn’t forget to look back and coldly glanced at Jun Kuang.
Jun Kuang sensed the strong hostility.
He was initially stunned, then bowed his head and chuckled lightly.
It turns out someone has already fallen for the Princess ahead of him.
Over on Bai Zhi’er’s side, she noticed Feng Fuce’s face remained stern as if he were in a bad mood.
Quite a few officials wanted to approach and greet him, but were scared off by his icy gaze.
Only Historian Wang, seeing Bai Zhi’er from afar, insisted on pushing through the crowd to reach her.
"Your Highness! It’s been a while since I last saw you. Micro-official’s sister has told me everything about how you struggled to save my niece."
"Micro-official thanks Your Highness for your kindness! So in my spare time, I wrote a collection of poems praising Your Highness’s virtues and benevolence."
"Would Your Highness like to take a look?"
Although Historian Wang sounded like he was asking, he had already reached into his sleeve to search around.
Bai Zhi’er is well aware of Historian Wang’s ability to express himself; he could talk non-stop for an entire hour without needing a sip of water.
Truly, as a historian, he is full of talent and speaks endlessly.
Bai Zhi’er didn’t want to miss Qingmei’s wedding.
She was about to refuse, but saw Historian Wang anxiously rummaging through his sleeve—
"Where is the book I wrote? It was clearly placed here; where did it go?"
At this moment, Feng Fuce spoke indifferently: "Did it fall on the way here?"
Historian Wang suddenly realized and was shocked: "It’s possible! Thank you, Marquis, for the reminder, I will go find it now and present it to Your Highness when found."
With that said, he lifted his robe and hurried away.
Only then did Feng Fuce reach out, with his long fingers holding a slightly thick booklet.
Bai Zhi’er’s eyes widened: "His?"
Feng Fuce nodded and said with a light laugh: "If he finished reading it, you wouldn’t be watching Qingmei’s wedding."
"I’ll keep it for him for now and return it after the ceremony."
