บท 1164: A Touch-and-Go Situation (3)

Lady Northern Feng didn't look like her tough self at all when she was with the empress dowager. Bending down, she gently took the old lady's hand and gave the latter her brightest smile.

The empress dowager snorted, pointed at Concubine Oriole next to her, and said in a disgruntled voice, "Even Concubine Oriole here has been telling me about how your little Feng Wu has been bullying other people just because she has powerful connections."

Lady Northern Feng didn't like the sound of that at all. "She has never done such a thing."

The old lady frowned. "She hasn't? I heard that she was behind that filthy affair of the Xuanyuan family!"

Lady Northern Feng tittered. "Your Majesty, surely you don't mean what happened between Lady Cai and Zuo Qingliu."

The old lady snorted.

Lady Northern Feng chuckled. "I don't understand. Why is my Xiao Wu involved in the affair between Lady Cai and Zuo Qingliu? Did she force them to sleep together?"
