The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute Chapter 429 - King

Chapter 429: King

Feng Ling concealed the coldness in her eyes and said, “You go first. I’ll wash up.”
Feng Lan thought for a while and nodded. “Then Sister, hurry up.”
“Mm.”
After Feng Lan left, Feng Ling washed up and quickly walked around the entire bedchamber. Everything was as she remembered. When she walked to the back garden, she happened to see two maidservants carrying a rabbit.
Feng Ling looked at the rabbit and stopped them.
The two maidservants quickly came over to greet Feng Ling. “Priestess.”
“Why are you carrying a rabbit?”
“Priestess, this is the Guardian’s rabbit.”
“Feng Lan?” If she didn’t remember wrongly, Feng Lan did like to raise some small animals. However, Feng Ling wasn’t very interested in raising animals, so no one here would bring a pet to her place.
However, knowing that Feng Lan would become evil, Feng Ling asked, “Since it’s Feng Lan’s, why did you carry it here?”
“The Guardian said that she’s going to stay with you for a day, Priestess. She was afraid that you would be bored from reading, so she asked someone to bring her rabbit over.”
“Is that so?”
Feng Ling looked at the pure white rabbit in front of her and said to them, “Leave it here. I’ll get Feng Lan to come over and carry it later.”
The maidservants definitely wouldn’t disobey her. The maidservant carrying the rabbit put it down and left.
Feng Ling looked at the rabbit squatting at her feet and not running away. She extended her finger and bent down to tap its head.
Then, she said to it, “Go look for Feng Lan.”
The rabbit ran to the side.
Feng Ling didn’t go to the altar to pray. Instead, she strode towards her master’s bedchamber.
Along the way, all the maidservants and guards who saw her knelt and bowed to her.
However, Feng Ling walked faster and faster. In the end, she used Qinggong and disappeared in front of the maidservants and guards.
The maidservants were a little surprised to see her.
Why was the Priestess so anxious?
Feng Ling didn’t slow down even when she reached her master’s bedchamber.
However, just as she reached the door and saw a man in a black robe coming out, she didn’t have time to stop and bumped into him.
“Er…”
“Be careful.”
A large hand grabbed her waist and pulled her back in time.
In the next second, the large hand let go of her.
Looking at the handsome and domineering man in front of her, Feng Ling called out, “Your Majesty.”
“Little Ling’er, why are you in such a hurry?”
The king had always called her Little Ling’er. In the past, Feng Ling didn’t think much of it. Now that she had a lover, she felt a little awkward. She puffed up her cheeks in dissatisfaction and said sternly, “Your Majesty, I’m succeeding the High Priest when I turn 16 in a few months.”
“Mm, so?”
“Stop calling me Little Ling’er. This will ruin my image as a High Priestess.”
The power of the High Priestess in Phoenix Skies was similar to that of the king. Feng Ling always said whatever she wanted in front of the king. This kind of habit seemed to have developed since she first met the king when she was young.
When the king heard this, he didn’t answer. Instead, he said, “Aren’t you here to look for your master? Go on in. The High Priest knows that you’re coming and is waiting for you.”
Feng Ling nodded at him and walked in.
The High Priest was sitting in the main hall deducing something. When Feng Ling walked in, the High Priest looked up at her and said, “Ling’er, you came at the right time. Come and take a look at this battle that I deduced.”
Feng Ling strode over.
The High Priest had used the heaven and earth cards (the author made it up) to predict. Only priests knew how to predict using such cards.
Seeing the triumphant return outcome, Feng Ling frowned.
At that time, no one had expected that the Grand General known as the God of War would almost be defeated in this war and suffer such heavy injuries.
Feng Ling thought for a moment and asked, “Master, under what circumstances do you think a war that should have been a win becomes a loss?”
The High Priest was a smart person. When he heard this, he asked, “Ling’er, did you sense something?”
Feng Ling looked at her master, who had a kind expression on his face, and opened her mouth, but she realized that she couldn’t speak.
This made her heart skip a beat.
“What’s wrong, Ling’er?”
Feng Ling lowered her eyes. Her heart suddenly started beating faster. She said, “It’s nothing. This is just my guess.”
The High Priest laughed. “What books did you read last night?”
“Books about worldly phenomena.”
“You child, you must have stayed up late again last night. Go back and rest for a while.”
Feng Ling shook her head. “I’m not tired. Master, I want to go to the Treasure House to take a look.”
“Go ahead, but remember to come out at noon.”
“Got it, Master.”
Feng Ling stood up and walked into the Treasure House.
The Treasure House in the Priest Hall could be said to be the largest pavilion with the most complete collection in the Kingdom of the Phoenix Skies. Not only were there all kinds of books, but there was also a refining room and a display room for divine artifacts.
Other than these, there was also a large mirror inside. This mirror could see people’s past lives.
However, this room with the mirror was a forbidden area. Other than the High Priest and the king, no one could enter.
Feng Ling had never thought of entering this place before, so it didn’t matter. When she walked to the door and pushed it, she realized that she couldn’t push it open at all. Only then did she know that she couldn’t enter yet.
She was a little disappointed. The only way she could find out the reason for her coming back was through that mirror, but she couldn’t open the door.
With her back against the door, Feng Ling raised her wrist to look at the phoenix mark and called out softly, “Phoenix.”
The Phoenix Seal flashed and Phoenix turned into a red-dressed woman who appeared in front of her.
“Mistress.”
“Do you remember Yan?”
Phoenix tilted her head and looked confused. “Who are you talking about, Mistress?”
Feng Ling’s expression changed slightly. She subconsciously shook her head and felt an indescribable disappointment.
Phoenix felt it and walked over to hold her hand. “Mistress, although I don’t know who you’re talking about, I know that person must be very important to you. Don’t worry, I will help you find him.”
“Mm.” Feng Ling raised her hand and touched Phoenix’s head.
Phoenix narrowed her eyes and rubbed it against her hand with a look of enjoyment.
Feng Ling was stunned for a moment. She also liked to do this kind of thing in Li Yan’s palm.
It was said that the intrinsic beast of a priest and the priest’s habits were interlinked. Chu Luo watched as Phoenix wheedled at her and had a grasp of the situation.
She had to think of a way to enter early to look at the mirror.
…
“Sister, why did you come to the Treasure House to read? Didn’t we say that we would pray for the Grand General at the sacrificial altar?”
Feng Ling looked up at the adorable Feng Lan in front of her and said, “I went to Master’s place to predict with him just now. Grand General will be fine.”
“Really? That’s great.”
After saying that, Feng Lan looked at the book in Feng Ling’s hand and walked over to take it from her. She said, “Sister, you can’t read every day. Let’s go out for a walk. I heard that the flowers in the Flower Palace are blooming beautifully. Why don’t we go over there and admire the flowers?”
“The Flower Palace is the king’s harem. We can’t go there often.”
“What does it matter? The king doesn’t have a queen or consort in his harem anyway.”
Feng Ling looked at Feng Lan, who had a matter-of-fact expression on her face. Why hadn’t it occurred to her that there was something wrong with her words before?
An unmarried woman running to the king’s harem for no reason…
“Sister, let’s go. The flowers in the Flower Palace are blooming so well. Even if you don’t wish to admire the flowers, you can pluck some to make rouge powder. You promised me before that you would make a new set of rouge powder for me.”
“Is that so?”
Feng Ling suddenly changed her mind. Since the king could enter that room, could she ask the king to open the door for her?
At the thought of this, she agreed.
Feng Ling didn’t need to notify anyone or receive approval to go to the Flower Palace. The two of them directly entered through the palace door of the harem.
It happened to be a warm spring season, and the Flower Palace could be said to be filled with blooming flowers.
The moment Feng Lan entered, she ran into the sea of flowers excitedly.
Feng Ling slowly walked into the sea of flowers.
The head butler of the harem quickly rushed over to welcome her. “Priestess.”
“Find me a flower basket and I’ll pluck some flowers back.”
“Okay, Priestess, please wait.”
The butler immediately sent someone to get the flower basket. She followed behind Feng Ling and listened to her orders at all times.
After the flower basket was brought over, Feng Ling plucked the flowers she needed as she walked.
When she was almost done picking the flowers, a group of butterflies had already surrounded her.
The butler standing at the side quickly lowered her head, not daring to let Feng Ling see the surprise in her eyes.
Feng Ling looked around but didn’t see Feng Lan. She frowned and asked the butler, “Where did Feng Lan go?”
The butler quickly replied, “Priestess, I saw the Guardian walking over just now.”
There was a lake in the direction that the butler pointed. Feng Lan must have gone there.
Feng Ling nodded at her and handed the flower basket to her. “Get someone to send this back to the bedchamber. You don’t have to follow me.”
“Yes.”
After the butler retreated, Feng Ling walked towards the lake.
When she was about to approach, she happened to see Feng Lan walking towards the king, who was standing in a pavilion by the lake.
When the king heard footsteps, he turned around. At this time, Feng Lan’s voice sounded. “Your Majesty, I didn’t expect you to be here too. I didn’t disturb you, did I?”
