Chapter 31◇
◎Suspicion of Feng Ran's Identity◎
Feng Ran turned her attention back to Duan Jingchuan, "Husband, what is it?"
"I heard you noticed something wrong with Chunyu Zhu's sister. How did you figure it out?"
Actually, Feng Ran couldn't explain it either. She could only express what she felt as much as possible. "Actually, I don't know either. It was just that the moment I smelled her scent, it was a natural reaction in my mind. I subconsciously felt that something was wrong with her body."
Since she had been asked directly, Chunyu Zhu didn't mince words and voiced her guess, "Does the Crown Princess know medicine? Is she perhaps very sensitive to medicine?"
Feng Ran shook her head. "I don't understand at all."
This was quite puzzling. Chunyu Lan didn't suspect Feng Ran, but simply guessed that it might be true. "Sister Ran, you always have to get close to my neck to make sure I'm okay. Did you smell something special?"
Chunyu Lan guessed that Feng Ran might be very sensitive to the smell of a certain medicine, which was why she was able to distinguish it.
Clearly, the other two also thought this guess was very reasonable, and their eyes were fixed on Feng Ran.
Feng Ran was not intimidated at all; even with ten thousand people watching, she remained unmoved.
Feng Ran shook her head decisively, "You do have a special scent, which I call the scent of a kind person, but there's something very uncomfortable mixed in with that scent. So I guessed someone drugged you, and it wasn't a good drug."
Upon hearing the phrase "good human taste," everyone looked at each other in disbelief, wondering what that taste was.
Feng Ran knew what she had forgotten; these memories might be important to her, or they might not be so important.
When she first arrived, she didn't integrate perfectly with this body, and even her movements weren't entirely in sync. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been caught red-handed by Wu Fengqing during her three-day homecoming.
The exercise during this period has also been beneficial; she has become more adept at controlling her body, and the jumbled memories in her mind are gradually becoming clearer.
In other words, she has absorbed all of the original owner Wu Fengran's memories. Although Fengran's own memories are like looking at flowers through a fog, she also has a vague feeling that she is not human, but more like a spirit or monster.
She had no idea why she was able to enter this era or what her background was.
However, spirits and monsters can cultivate as they please. As long as they do not harm the heavens and reason and accumulate good deeds, they will surely achieve perfect merit, and they are happy to be free.
After the memories were merged, she gained an additional ability: to distinguish between loyalty and treachery, good and evil, relying on a person's scent.
She usually likes to be around the socially anxious guy, not just because he is her benefactor, but because he is a kind person. Being around such a person helps her with her spiritual practice, even though she has forgotten how to practice.
Of all the people she's met, there are only a handful whose scents she truly likes.
There is another mansion belonging to the Marquis of Dingbei, namely the Marquis of Dingbei.
Marquis Dingbei was full of loyalty and righteousness, so she respected him greatly.
The remaining people included Xiuer, Xiong Qi, Lao Li, and others. Although these people were loyal, they were just ordinary people. Chunyu Lan in front of them was different. The golden light of merit on her body almost blinded her.
But she couldn't say these things. Although she acted haphazardly and didn't understand the rules, she knew that there were times when it was not allowed for the appearance of strange beings, especially since the human world avoided mentioning spirits and monsters.
Although the socially anxious girl was very kind to her, she didn't dare to gamble with that kindness. Perhaps it was a stroke of luck that she could spend her life here peacefully for a hundred years.
After sorting out her thoughts, Feng Ran decided not to explain, since it was something that couldn't be explained clearly. So she laughed it off and said, "It's just a feeling. I really liked Chunyu Lan when I saw him, just like I liked my husband. Young Master Chunyu, you can leave it at that."
Unexpectedly, the question turned into a confession-like statement, causing Duan Jingchuan's heart to pound and his ears to turn pink.
Duan Jingchuan didn't intend to press the matter further, but Chunyu Zhu clearly didn't want to let Feng Ran off the hook. "Princess Consort, besides being able to distinguish between good and bad people, what else can you distinguish? Don't tell me you can also see a person's lifespan, otherwise how could you say that Lanlan escaped unharmed this time?"
Feng Ran wished she could slap herself for speaking so recklessly and digging her own grave. Although she felt guilty, she still retorted loudly, "Lanlan is so cute, how could she be harmed by bad people? I think you just don't want your sister to be happy."
Instead of getting any information, Chunyu Zhu was accused of something, which angered him. Just as he was about to retort, Duan Jingchuan coughed lightly from the side, and Chunyu Zhu immediately calmed down.
"Madam, the study is chilly. Why don't you take Miss Chunyu to the warmer room for a while?"
Feng Ran made a face at Duan Jingchuan, "If you want to kick us out, just say so. Why do you have to go to the warm pavilion? Xiao Lan, let me take you to my room. There's lots of delicious food there."
After sending Feng Ran away, Chunyu Zhu asked, "Jingchuan, why won't you let me continue to ask? The Crown Princess's words are obviously full of loopholes. Who can believe such a ridiculous reason?"
Duan Jingchuan's eyes held a hint of warning, "But she didn't harm you, did she?"
"What if she has ulterior motives towards you?"
Duan Jingchuan said self-deprecatingly, "What do I have that's worth scheming against? It's nothing more than the position of heir apparent. Do you think she's worthy of that?"
Chunyu Zhu was speechless; to be honest, it didn't seem like it.
He had never seen such a brainless spy before. If any master could train such a traitor, then he would be nothing to fear.
Duan Jingchuan could tell that Chunyu Zhu was not convinced, so he warned her again, "Keep your suspicions to yourself. Don't investigate or show it. She has no problem."
Chunyu Zhu suddenly had a flash of insight, "Jingchuan, is it because of her?"
Duan Jingchuan retorted, "So what if it is?"
Yes, so what? Now that Feng Ran is Duan Jingchuan's Crown Princess, isn't it normal for him to fall for her?
Chunyu Zhu put aside his doubts and said solemnly, "Don't worry, from now on, the Crown Princess will be my sister-in-law."
Duan Jingchuan's expression softened, and he revealed what he had been planning for a long time: "I want to join the court."
Chunyu Zhu was almost startled by those words and jumped up. "Are you crazy?! Can you handle a crowded environment?"
Duan Jingchuan's face suddenly turned pale, and he couldn't help but ask, "Even you don't believe me?"
