Chapter 2495 Why Did I Hear…

Empress Dugu kept giving Zuo Qingluan warning looks, trying to remind her that she should grab this great opportunity. “Did Master Linghu call you a blessed child?” the empress dowager asked Zuo Qingluan. Given how smart Zuo Qingluan was, she obviously knew that the empress dowager didn’t like Feng Wu. Now was the best time to win the old lady’s heart.
As for being a blessed child… She was the sacred lady of Firmament Palace and the daughter of the Zuo family who was born with the True Phoenix Blood. Of course she was blessed!
Therefore, she nodded.
She nodded!
The empress dowager was shocked.
“You were the first precant of the year! Master Linghu chose you!” She stared at Zuo Qingluan.
Zuo Qingluan was baffled. What first precant?
Before she could ask, Empress Dugu answered the question for her.
“That’s right. Master Linghu called Qingluan a blessed child. She was also the first precant of the year. Your Majesty, what do you think of her?”
The empress dowager was speechless.
It was Zuo Qingluan. She hadn’t expected that.
She didn’t answer the question.
However, Emperor Wu, who had been standing behind the door curtain, was astonished.
How could Zuo Qingluan be so vain?!
The little monk of Wandering Temple had gone to Fallen Star Yard, and Feng Wu had been the one whom Master Linghu had chosen. How did Zuo Qingluan have anything to do with that?
He cleared his throat.
“My son is here.” The empress dowager was glad to see Emperor Wu.
Emperor Wu greeted the empress dowager and smiled. “I heard your cheerful conversation from miles away. What’s the occasion?”
The empress dowager said happily, “I found the lucky child who was chosen to be the first precant of the year.” Emperor Wu asked, “Who was it?” Empress Dugu gestured at Zuo Qingluan. “Your Majesty, it was Qingluan. Look. Isn’t she pretty? She’ll make the perfect wife for His Royal Highness. Master Linghu has acknowledged her great quality.”
Emperor Wu thought that Feng Wu was better looking
As for becoming Jun Linyuan’s wife, that wasn’t going to happen. She was vain enough to claim an honor that wasn’t hers, so what kind of quality could she have?
Of course, Emperor Wu wouldn’t be so straightforward. He only glanced at Zuo Qingluan and said, “So, you were Wandering Temple’s first precant of this year.”
Zuo Qingluan didn’t know what to say.
She knew what becoming the first precant meant, but…
The chance of pleasing the empress dowager was too tempting.
So, she had let Empress Dugu mislead the empress dowager. Now that Emperor Wu had asked the question specifically, Zuo Qingluan took a deep breath and nodded. “Yes, it was me.”
No, it wasn’t!
Emperor Wu wanted to shout at Zuo Qingluan. If Master Linghu knew what she was doing, he would probably slap her.
The girl had spread the rumor first, making everyone believe that Jun Linyuan was in love with her. Now, she was laying claim to something that she didn’t do. That was despicable!
Emperor Wu didn’t lose his temper. Instead, he asked, “Why did I hear that the first precant of Wandering Temple was Feng Wu?”
