Fei Wan had not attended court for a week. Not only that, but he was furious during his last appearance. He removed the border affairs that were under the charge of the Prime Minister Gu Ruozhao and transferred them to other people.
Gu Ruozhao and Fei Wan parted ways on bad terms. Even though there was no morning court, Fei Wan still found various reasons to punish some ministers, most of whom were from Gu Ruozhao's faction.
There were also rumors that this was because the king was obsessed with beauty, and for a time, people were in panic.
Faced with the emperor's unpredictable intentions, all the court officials felt insecure.
"Royal sister, you...what's wrong with you recently?"
Feng Qili held the chess piece in her hand, not letting it go. Her gaze was not on the chessboard, but on the person before her.
Even though Feng Qili was staring at her, Fei Wan remained unaffected. She pushed the chess jar calmly.
"Royal sister, calm down and focus on playing chess."
Feng Qili held her chin and threw the chess piece back.
"I'm not good at Go to begin with, and I've forgotten it a long time ago. Please don't make things difficult for me, sister."
Fei Wan saw that she was not paying attention to this and was cleaning up the chess game:
"Then let's switch to Gomoku, which you're good at...?"
Feng Qili was silent for a moment, then sighed deeply.
"Royal sister, your attitude towards Prime Minister Gu these days..."
Feng Qili hesitated to speak.
Even if she was a thick-skinned person, she could still sense that there was something clearly wrong between them.
Although there were rumors that the two had a disagreement over something, Feng Qili had never seen Fei Wan making things difficult for Gu Ruozhao before, so she naturally thought it was false.
However, his actions in the court recently, coupled with Gu Linghuan's expression of dissatisfaction with Fei Wan in front of Feng Qili, and his confession of everything Fei Wan had done to Gu Ruozhao.
now……
Feng Qili had no choice but to believe those rumors.
"Gu Ruozhao...?"
In just a moment, Fei Wan's expression turned cold.
"I spoiled him too much before. He was just a prime minister, but he dared to tell me what to do."
"Is there anything else you want to ask?"
Feng Qili quickly stopped talking and shook his head like a rattle.
"Ah... no, no."
It happened that Wutong's voice was heard at this time, and Feng Qili found an excuse to go out.
Fei Wan looked at Feng Qili's back, but a hint of hesitation flashed across his eyes.
Did she overact and scare the little cutie away?
Fei Wan considered Feng Qili's personality and decided to hide the truth.
It’s not that Fei Wan was worried that Feng Qili would betray him, because Feng Qili was good friends with Gu Linghuan, and Gu Ruozhao also kept it a secret from Gu Linghuan. If Fei Wan told Feng Qili, there might be some changes.
Fei Wan still remembered that Gu Ruozhao had told her about Gu Linghuan and Feng Qili's first meeting, which was... surprising.
"His Majesty."
Wutong bowed to her, bringing Feiwan back to her senses.
"How's the Prime Minister doing?"
Wutong paused, "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is fine. He is currently playing the zither in his residence."
She spoke as if she was already very familiar with the subject: "The snacks have been received, and the books the Prime Minister needed have been delivered. I convey His Majesty's concern for the Prime Minister every day..."
After Wutong finished her long string of words, she couldn't help but say:
"Your Majesty, this is the fifth time today that you have inquired about his condition."
Fei Wan was slightly stunned and blinked innocently:
"Are there so many?"
Wutong still smiled, as if he was used to it:
"Perhaps I remembered it wrongly."
Fei Wan moved the chess pieces on the table before remembering the important matter.
"Ling Wu's sister, have you found your location?"
