Feng Wu immediately said, "I'm well-rested. Thank you, Grandmother."
"You're always so formal. Why can't you be more casual around me?" The empress dowager was happy to see "Jun Linyuan" and immediately took "his" hand. "Come. Sit with me."
She then snorted. "Someone was behaving like the smartest man in the room while you were away. He actually thought that he could win a debate. Hmph!"
Feng Wu knew who she was talking about. Only the second prince would be criticized like this.
The empress dowager then tried to lead Feng Wu away.
She had no idea that the "Jun Linyuan" she was talking to was actually Feng Wu.
Feng Wu sighed inwardly. She could go with the empress dowager, but what if Jun Linyuan wouldn't go with her?
She was still on the ninth trial.
Feng Wu looked eagerly at Jun Linyuan.
She already knew him a little better than before.
