Chapter 1854: What a Schemer
However, Feng Chang had already been given the command to find the traitor at all costs. Hence, Feng Chang had no choice but to head out to find the criminal.
Ning Shu was also pretty speechless. The emperor’s behavior was pretty much declaring that he was purposefully trying to frame the prince.
Even Prince Fan got caught up in the mess. The emperor was probably taking advantage of this chance to sort out everyone he was annoyed with.
Wow, what a schemer.
However, this didn’t have much to do with her. Whenever she had free time, she would cultivate and guide her energy through every part of her body so that the energy would slowly heal this body.
However, Feng Chang wasn’t able to catch Prince Xin. An old man had rescued Prince Xin and brought him out of the city, allowing him to successfully reunite with his own troops.
Feng Chang and the others ended up being punished by the emperor. Feng Chang lost half a year of his salary.
Feng Chang wasn’t in a good mood, so all the servants in the Feng family were extra careful around him, fearful that they would cause him to explode.
When Ning Shu saw how worried Feng Chang was, she consoled him, saying, “Father, it’s only half a year’s worth of salary.”
What official’s family didn’t have a few stores and had to rely solely on that meager salary to feed the entire family?
Feng Chang shot Ning Shu a look. “You’re so shortsighted. Who says that I am sad over the salary? It’s just that Prince Xin had managed to escape this time. There’s no way he’ll just let this incident go, so there’s bound to be chaos soon.”
He was definitely heartbroken about the salary.
Ning Shu sighed. Numerous countries were establishing themselves during this time. It was the way of the world. Those united eventually separated, those separated eventually united.
It was just that the process of unification would now be a bit difficult. As of now, Ying Su had already been absorbed by the soul pearl so there would be no more futuristic early thermal weapons. Relying only upon swords and spears to unite so many countries really seemed quite unrealistic.
In any case, war was always accompanied by pain and destruction. Out of destruction arose new life, but those who suffered were always the powerless commoners.
Who knew if Feng Qingqian would be able to see the unification in her lifetime? However, the process would definitely occur during her lifetime.
If there was going to be a war, then it would concern the interests of the Feng family. Should anything happen to Feng Chang, the Feng family would likely fall to ruin. That was why Feng Chang was so worried.
Honestly speaking, Feng Chang should now be considering the issue of the Feng family’s next successor and training that successor.
However, Ning Shu didn’t talk about these things to anyone. After all, she wasn’t really someone of the Feng family and she was also a woman. If she tried to get involved in these things, Feng Chang will definitely glower at her again.
The one thing that was on her mind right now was: when would this body’s princess mother finally appear?
If the princess mother appeared, the original host’s life would probably improve. It couldn’t be that since the female lead Ying Su had died, the princess mother would no longer be showing up?
It felt like this mother was Ying Su’s mom, not Feng Qingqian’s mom.
Ning Shu didn’t bother to worry about what was going on outside and just spent her days in Orchid Garden cultivating. Whenever she had free time, she would write some medical books or work on writing down the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. If anyone used what she wrote in the future, it might generate some faith power.
When the original host came back, she could also study them. It was very important to have skills of one’s own, especially since the world was about to fall into chaos. It was better to rely on oneself than on anyone else.
Ning Shu kept waiting for the original host’s princess mother, but what she got was 2333’s notification. “Task complete. Would you like to leave the task world?”
Ning Shu nodded. “Leave.”
Ning Shu felt a bout of dizziness, and then she had returned to the system space.
Since she had been able to leave the task world, it meant that she had successfully completed this task. However, she wished that she had been able to see Feng Qingqian’s mother.
She had an inkling suspicion that Feng Qingqian’s mother was actually dead. If it had been Ying Su, she would be alive. Did that mean only Ying Su had the ability to trigger the parents of this character?
