Godly Empress Doctor

Feng Wu said, “We’ll build the foundation first. After the underground formations are complete, I’ll make some partial changes based on the structure of the manor. The minor formations can wait till the end.”

“Minor formations? Such as…”

“Such as a small formation centered around the dry well, or a mini one like what I did with that Whistling Vase. They’ll all join up and become part of the completed Taiyi formation.” Feng Wu wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Building the Taiyi formation was a lot of work, but she was enjoying every minute of it.

For one, she could put the theories she had learned from her beautiful master to use. The more she practiced, the more impressed she was by how knowledgeable her beautiful master was.

Grand Secretary Fang had lost count of how many times Feng Wu’s knowledge of formations had amazed him.

For another, once the formation was completed, it would help Feng Wu and those around her. And it wasn’t limited to their cultivation; the formation would also help to extend the lives of ordinary people.

Lady Northern Feng arrived at Fallen Star Yard at that moment.

Hearing the noise, Feng Wu said goodbye to Grand Secretary Fang.

“Lady Northern Feng, what brings you here?” Because the goddaughter thing wasn’t official yet, Feng Wu still addressed the lady like she normally did.

Lady Northern Feng felt guilty when she saw Feng Wu. She opened her mouth, but didn’t know what to say.

“What happened?” Feng Wu could tell something was wrong.

It had to be something major to trouble the dauntless Lady Northern Feng like this.

“Xiao Wu —” Taking Feng Wu’s hand, Lady Northern Feng smiled bitterly. “I’m so sorry about this. It’s all my fault.”

“Someone at court didn’t agree with you?” Those people were the only ones Feng Wu could think of that could make Lady Northern Feng feel helpless.

Lady Northern Feng was surprised by how perceptive Feng Wu was.

“Since you’ve guessed it, I’ll tell you everything.”

Lady Northern Feng had faith in Feng Wu’s character and she told Feng Wu about everything that had happened in the imperial palace. She gave the girl a wry smile in the end. “Xiao Wu, what do you think we should do now?”

She added, “I went to the crown prince’s residence first, but His Royal Highness wasn’t there, and neither was Feng. No one knew when they would be back.”

“No problem. I’ll come with you.” Feng Wu smiled.

That was how bighearted Feng Wu was. She always took the bull by the horns and wouldn’t be intimidated.

In the imperial palace.

Emperor Wu tried to say something a few times, but decided not to in the end.

With the empress dowager sitting there with a long face, the atmosphere was very tense in the hall.

She was nursing a headache —

The empress dowager felt a throbbing pain behind her eyes and she thought she could see flashing lights. However, at the thought of that jade pendant, she willed herself to sit straight.

Because of that, she was in an even fouler mood.

No one made a sound in Cining Palace.

The servants tried their best to keep their footsteps as quiet as possible.

The empress dowager seemed to be this kind old lady, but when she did get mad… there would be blood.

It had always been this way in the Jun family.

The empress dowager was like this, and so were Emperor Wu and Jun Linyuan.

Quick footsteps came from outside.

Lady Northern Feng skipped the announcement and brought Feng Wu into the palace straightaway.

The mood in the palace was very solemn and the air seemed to have frozen.

Dressed in her formal attire with a golden crown on her head, the empress dowager sat there with an emotionless and stern face.

Next to the empress dowager, Emperor Wu looked equally majestic.
