Chapter 151: The Imperial Capital Is A City of Trouble

Had it not been for the fact that her brother had been cultivating in the small hours and required absolute quiet, Feng Liu would have prompted him to set out together with Jun Linyuan.

Feng Wu didn’t take many people with her this time.

The only servant she had was Qiuling, her chambermaid.

And the beautiful lady only took her own chambermaid, Granny Zhao.

Other than the two maids, there was also Uncle Qiu, the steward/guard that had been with Feng Wu for a very long time.

Feng Wu was used to keeping all her important belongings in the ring and she had little to pack. However, her beautiful mother was taking out case after case of clothes, which made Feng Wu stare with an open mouth.

“There are so many of them —” Seeing that Feng Wu was looking in their direction, Granny Zhao said in a hurry, as if she had just found her savior, “Madam wants to take all her clothes and ornaments back to the imperial capital, but… how are we going to fit all these cases?”

There were at least over a dozen eaglewood chests.

Biting her lower lip, the beautiful lady was all puppy-eyed and pitiful. She couldn’t bear the thought of leaving behind one single piece of clothing.

“… I made them myself…” Her glistening eyes were as clear and innocent as a fawn’s, waking up all of Feng Wu’s motherly instincts.

Feng Wu gave in right away. “Alright, alright. We’ll take them all. Everything.”

“Yes!” The beautiful lady smiled through her tears and her face was as radiant as the morning sun.

The corner of Granny Zhao’s mouth twitched a little and she didn’t know what to say. No one took so many chests when traveling, for it was simply too inconvenient. She had never met another daughter that doted on their mother like Miss Wu here did.

Feng Liu and Feng Yiran exchanged looks as the big chests were taken out of the rooms.

It seemed that Feng Wu had accumulated quite some wealth during her five years living here in Northern Border City. Once they were back in the imperial capital… Hahaha!

Feng Liu would never have guessed that the chests contained nothing of real value, but only the beautiful lady’s clothes.

After Feng Liu’s incessant nagging, everyone finally got into their carriages and were ready to depart.

Feng Yiran and Feng Liu’s carriage went first, followed by their guards.

Feng Wu and the others from the old manor were at the rear of the procession.

That was to say, Feng Yiran’s men were only responsible for the safety of the brother and sister. They wouldn’t give a damn if anything happened to Feng Wu and the others.

Feng Wu thought about having a carriage to herself, so that it would be more convenient for her to cultivate on the way. But now, she changed her mind.

“I’ll share a carriage with Mum. Qiuling, you take the one behind with Granny Zhao,” Feng Wu instructed.

The team from the Feng clan was soon on its way.

The carriage Feng Wu took was a special one she had customized for her mother. Because it was shockproof, it was very comfortable to sit in, and one wouldn’t be jolted or get tossed about like in ordinary carriages.

Plus, there were a lot of hidden gadgets inside the carriage.

Feng Wu put down a tray table from the wall and laid out some food and water on it, then fetched some embroidery work for her mother. She smiled and said in a cajoling voice, “I’m going to be busy with my cultivation from now on and I won’t have much time to keep you company. Mum, do you think you can look after yourself?”

Despite her child-like level of intelligence, the beautiful lady knew perfectly well that cultivation was something of great importance. She nodded affirmatively. “Xiao Wu is awesome.”

“Yes, Xiao Wu is going to get super awesome and I’ll be able to protect you.” Feng Wu caressed her mother’s hair.

Her other hand made a fist under her long sleeve.

The imperial capital was a city of trouble.

There —
