Chapter 1027: The History of Shen Qingdai’s Mother
Feng Tianlan took the letter while she gave the Emperor a suspicious glance. It was not what she’d imagined. She felt that if such a thing happened, she would be eager to kill him when she saw him. But now there was actually a letter from her mother and it was from more than ten years ago.
“The seal was made with your mother’s Spiritual Force. No one can open it except you.” The Dongshu Emperor seemed to understand what was on her mind and said this earnestly.
Feng Tianlan frowned and looked up at Si Mobai. She thought of what he had said before. The seal in the safety rune used Spiritual Force. Could it be there was really such a thing?
“If you don’t believe it, you can let the Demon King test it,” the Emperor said.
Feng Tianlan had not yet replied when Si Mobai took the letter from her to take a look at the seal and ran his hand over it. Next, he gave it back to her and said, “It feels the same as the safety rune, so what he said should be true.”
Feng Tianlan took the letter and opened it easily. If Mobai had not said it, she would have really doubted the Emperor’s words. But when she saw the contents of the letter, she furrowed her brows tightly and said, “My mother really left this to me.”
“Then why are you…?” Si Mobai looked at her inexplicably. Since it was, why did she still have a worried frown?
Feng Tianlan handed the letter to Si Mobai to let him see for himself. She then looked up to carefully appraise the Dongshu Emperor.
Si Mobai finished reading the letter. He was also stunned momentarily before he returned it to Feng Tianlan. He asked, “Lan’er, what do you intend to do?”
“Enter the Shang Institution in September,” Feng Tianlan lowered her gaze and replied in a low voice.
The letter mentioned another country that was not in the history of the Xuantian Continent, a country that was almost isolated from the outside world – Tianfeng Nation!
Tianfeng Nation’s national surname was Feng, and the emperor of this country was a woman, which meant an Empress!
And her mother was Tianfeng Nation’s Lady Phoenix. Because she went away for a mission, she met her father, Shen Borui, and married into the Dongshu Nation. She also concealed her name. However, they were discovered within five years.
In order to avoid implicating Dongshu Nation and having it wiped out by Tianfeng Nation, her parents took Shen Bokang and the Dongshu Emperor to the Forest of Death, where there was an entrance leading to Tianfeng Nation.
At the same time, they were aware that their whereabouts were exposed because of Shen Bokang, so they put on a show of being dead in front of him. Because of this, Shen Bokang had thought they were dead until now. Only the Emperor did not know.
In short, the matter was extremely complicated. It was not something that could be conveyed clearly in the letter. But her mother clearly said that this matter had nothing to do with the Emperor. He was only entrusted by her, so he had to conceal it.
Meanwhile, the letter also mentioned letting Feng Tianlan enter the Shang Institution after her Coming-of-Age Ceremony. She had to crash her way through the Heaven Soul and Earth Soul Pagodas in order to go to Tianfeng Nation to find her. Otherwise, she could not step into Tianfeng Nation in this life nor have any relations or contact with the Tianfeng Nation.
At the same time, she instructed Feng Tianlan to keep the safety rune well.
“How much do you know about what happened that year?” Feng Tianlan held the letter and let out a long sigh of relief inside. The safety rune had suddenly been left to her by her mother before leaving. Even Shen Yunya did not know about it. The Emperor could not possibly know.
Furthermore, the envelope was sealed with Spiritual Force. She believed that he had not seen it.
As long as the Emperor was not an accomplice in the murder of her parents, then she did not have to make things difficult for him.
“I only knew that Shen Bokang informed the Tianfeng Nation of her whereabouts and that was how the Tianfeng Nation caught up with them, forcing them to leave. Because you were born invalid, Tianfeng Nation did not take you. As for the entrance, I have no way of knowing. They had jumped directly off the cliff at the time. Later, I also sent people to try, and everyone died jumping off the cliff.”
