Cute But Brutal Wife
Chapter 437: Because You Don't Wake Up, Don't Wake Up
Feng Ling suddenly said to the king, “Yesterday, the Great General went to where Lan’er. Lan’er said that he had something very important to give to the Grand General, but the Grand General left without taking anything.”
When the king heard this, his gaze darkened. He turned to look at the unconscious Grand General and thought for a few seconds before saying to Feng Ling, “Ling’er, get out first.”
“What will you do?”
The king walked towards the general and tilted his head to look at him. “Seeing what's on him,” he said.
Feng Ling froze for a moment before turning around to leave.
After Feng Ling came out and closed the door, the king lifted the general's blanket and fumbled for a bit.
Soon, he found dudou in his clothes.
Taking the dudou, the king only saw and a powerful murderous aura appeared in his eyes.
“Because you don't want to wake up, don't wake up.”
After saying that, he put on his dudou into his clothes, pulled the blanket over the General, and walked out.
When Feng Ling saw the king come out, she quickly asked, “Did you find something?”
The king looked at him and said calmly, “I found nothing.”
After saying that, he raised his hand to touch her hair and said, “Go eat first. You can ask Feng Lan later what she wants to give to the Grand General.”
At this point, he added, “If anyone dares to do anything to disappoint you, do not be soft-hearted.”
Feng Ling tilted her head to look at him, feeling that there was something behind his words.
However, the king closed his mouth and stopped talking.
They both went to the palace. While eating, Feng Ling wondered what would happen if she and Feng Lan fell.
At this moment, a piece of food was placed in his bowl.
Then, the voice of the disapproving king could be heard. “Eat.”
Feng Ling looked at the king, who was eating seriously. He thought that this person was the same as when he first met Yan and was not adorable at all.
Indeed, even if one was reincarnated, the things engraved on their soul could not be changed.
Feng Ling ate the food in her bowl and looked at the dishes on the table. Only then did he realize that all the dishes were his favorite. He could not be picky even if he wanted to.
Thinking of this, Feng Ling looked at him.
After a few seconds, he opened his mouth and asked, “Your Majesty, did you find anything?”
“What?” The king looked at him and asked instead of answering.
Feng Ling thought for a moment and investigated, “Why do you think Lan’er asked the Great General to go to his place? Grand General even went there.”
With the Grand General's injury, even if he had taken care of him, it was impossible for him to recover so quickly. Moreover, he needed to recuperate calmly. Feng Ling was simply confused.
At this time, the king took food for him and said, “You can ask the general when he wakes up.”
Feng Ling would not ask such a thing. As a High Priestess, how could she be curious about the personal affairs of others?
Even though he was very curious.
The king looked at Feng Ling's lower eyes and knew what she was thinking. He suddenly said, “The ministers are working well today. How do you think I should reward them?”
Feng Ling was just thinking of finding an opportunity to quarrel with Feng Lan. When she heard him say that, her eyes looked around and she said, “Why don't you hold a banquet and invite them?”
“Good.”
Since the banquet was going to be held, there were bound to be many people invited. Soon, Feng Lan also accepted the invitation.
He looked at the invitation in his hand and thought about how the king rarely held royal banquets. She should dress up beautifully tonight.
As he was thinking of dressing up, he thought of Feng Ling. He decided to see what Feng Ling was wearing first.
Feng Ling had just stayed in the herbal purification room for a while when she heard footsteps coming in. Then, it was Feng Lan's voice. “Kakak, the royal banquet is held tonight. Why are you still concocting medicine?”
Feng Ling said without looking back, “It's still early.”
“How is it still early? There are so many girls from rich families tonight. Sister, as the successor of the High Priest, you cannot lose to them in any aspect.”
“It's okay. They can't compare to me.”
Feng Ling was actually telling the truth. In Phoenix Skies, no woman could match him.
However, these words deeply pierced Feng Lan's ears.
He snorted coldly in his heart: ‘Who said no one can match you!’
Feng Lan asked casually, “Sister, which clothes are you going to wear tonight? Even if you don't care about the others, you still have to choose a set of pretty clothes to wear, right?”
Feng Ling looked at Feng Lan, who was clearly hoping that she would not look too good in it, and the corners of her lips curved up slightly. “You're right. Coincidentally, I have not worn the Golden Cricket Fur Silk Cloak that XX Nation has offered as a tribute.”
“Eh... Sister, you will wear that?”
“Accurate once. I think it's better to dress formally for a banquet like that.”
When Feng Lan heard this, she lowered her eyes and looked at him with her smiling eyes. “Right sister.”
Feng Ling also smiled. “Go get dressed first. I'll go after brewing medicine here.”
“Good.”
Seeing Feng Lan leave, the corner of Feng Ling's lips curved.
......................
The royal banquet was held at around four in the afternoon. The king and Feng Ling sat in the seats above, and all the ministers sat down with their wives and daughters.
The king raised his glass and praised them. Everyone quickly responded and drank the first glass of wine.
Then, a minister stood up and said, “This time, the wheat on the western outskirts was saved from the water disaster due to the foresight of the king and the priest. My daughter specifically made the dance. Please respectfully accept it, Your Majesty and the Reverend.”
The king did not approve of the minister. Instead, he asked Feng Ling, “Little Ling’er, do you want to watch the dance?”
Feng Ling nodded.
King: “Please.”
A melodious tone sounded. Minister Wang's daughter walked in graceful steps and began to dance.
Feng Ling had just noticed for a while when Feng Lan, who was sitting beside her, quietly walked to her side and said in a low voice, “Saudari, Minister Wang always wanted Wang Lianyi to marry the king as his empress. Why do you still want her to dance?”
Feng Ling tilted her head and looked at the anxious Feng Lan, who seemed to notice her. He narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment before asking, “What do you think I should do, Lan’er? Refuse it?”
“Obviously it's not good to refuse. That would make people think that Sister is jealous.”
“Mm... so what's on your mind?”
“Why don't you dance too, Sister?”
Feng Ling sneered in her heart. As the successor of the High Priest of the Phoenix Sky Kingdom, other than performing the sacrificial dance on the sacrificial altar, it was impossible for him to dance anywhere else. Did Feng Lan pretend not to know? Or does he have another motive?
Feng Ling assessed Feng Lan's clothes tonight. It had to be said that the clothes he was wearing were very cunning. It was a type of clothing that was perfect for dancing.
Feng Ling immediately understood it. “Why does Lan’er not dance on my behalf?”
“Emm..”
“It's decided then.”
“Good.”
Since a princess from one family had come out to dance, there would be a second and third family. When the daughter of the Assistant Minister finished dancing, Feng Ling clapped at everyone and said, “Because so many women are interested tonight, why don't we let my little sister dance as well? Lan’er has been following me since she was young and good at dancing. Think of this as a debate with all women.”
When Feng Ling said this, everyone looked at Feng Lan.
Of course, as Feng Ling's younger sister, everyone would definitely like Feng Lan on the surface. As for whether the young lady was competing personally, Feng Ling could not stop them.
Feng Lan's dance was indeed very beautiful. When she started dancing, everyone was attracted by her beautiful clothes. Especially when her dress was opened, there were even light spots like floating flowers. Coupled with her beauty, she instantly mesmerized many young officials.
While everyone was looking at Feng Lan, Feng Ling asked the king in a low voice, who was drinking wine with her glass, “Yang Mulia, do you think Lan’er dance is so charming?”
The king did not think too much about Feng Lan's dance. Hearing Feng Ling's question, she simply said these words, “Stupid yourself.”
Feng Ling froze for a moment, then smiled and raised the wine glass in front of her toast to him.
The king also raised his glass towards him.
Feng Ling said, “Don't keep drinking. See other women's dances.”
The king's gaze darkened and he said, “Keep the thoughts in your head. Otherwise, I will ask someone to give you all the wine in the wine cellar.”
“You..”.
Feng Ling was furious and was about to speak when Feng Lan's dance ended.
Feng Ling put down her wine glass and smiled at Feng Lan, who was walking towards them.
The king glanced at him and put down his glass.
Feng Lan stood in front of the two of them and first bowed to the king before asking in a hopeful and timid tone, “Your Majesty, Sister, what do you think of my dance?”
The king pursed his lips slightly and was unwilling to answer at all.
Feng Ling nodded. “You danced very well.”
Feng Lan secretly glanced at the king, lowered her eyes, and walked back to her seat.
When the dance ended, the butler brought the palace maid to deliver the wine.
After the banquet, it was already dark. The palace was illuminated with crystal lights, making it as bright as daylight.
Feng Lan came and suggested to Feng Ling, “Son, why don't we bring another woman to the pavilion in the Hundred Flowers Garden to admire the flowers?”
It was still raining, but there were several large pavilions in the Hundred Flowers Garden. It is not a bad idea to admire the flowers there on a rainy day.
Of course, it would be best to admire the flowers during the day.
However, Feng Ling knew that Feng Lan definitely had a motive. He also has a motive. Coupled with the fact that other than some women left behind by the late emperor (who was also very close to him), the king had no women in his harem, so he cooperated and agreed.
When the king knew that Feng Ling was going to the Hundred Flowers Garden to admire the flowers, he specifically sent a butler to serve her.
At this time, the rain became lighter. Feng Ling led a group of women around the corridor and walked towards the backyard.
This was the first time the women from the noble families had come here. Along the way, they were all a little excited.. When they reached the Hundred Flowers Garden, all the women covered their mouths in shock as they saw the beautiful scenery before them.
