When Feng Ling heard this, her face blushed for no reason.

She quickly retracted her hand and said awkwardly, “No way will something happen to me.”

Just as she finished speaking, the king extended his hand towards her. Feng Ling wanted to dodge, but his large hand pushed aside the wet hair on her face first.

The king said calmly, “You’re all wet. Dry your clothes with your internal energy first.”

Feng Ling looked at him and held it in for a long time before saying, “Yours is also wet.”

At this moment, the head guard came over and reported, “Your Majesty, the a.s.sa.s.sins are all dealt with. The carriage is parked over there.”

The king nodded and said to Feng Ling, “Go to the carriage first.”

The two of them got into the carriage.

The moment they boarded the carriage, the two of them dried their clothes with their internal energy.

Feng Ling was still a little worried about the wound on his hand, so she took out a medicine bottle for him.

“Take two pills from this bottle when you go back. This way, your hand should be healed by tomorrow morning.”

The king took the bottle from her hand and nodded.

…

On the other side.

Not long after Chu Luo and the others left, Feng Lan went to the Grand General’s residence.

The butler stopped her in front of the general’s residence.

“Guardian Feng, the Grand General is unwell. He instructed us not to bring anyone to him.”

Feng Lan said with a troubled expression, “I’m just here to deliver something to the Grand General. I’ll leave after that.”

“Guardian Feng, what is it? I’ll hand it to the Grand General on your behalf.”

“No.” The corners of Feng Lan’s lips suddenly curled up into a meaningful smile. “Why don’t you go in and tell the Grand General that I’m giving him his sweetheart’s personal belongings? Ask him if he wants them.”

When the head butler heard this, he was stunned. ‘Since when did the General have a sweetheart?’ He had watched the General grow up. Why didn’t he know?

Feng Lan urged him, “Hurry up and go in to help me report. It’s going to rain later. I have to go back early.”

When the head butler saw that Feng Lan was speaking so seriously, he decided to go report it even though he had his doubts. It had to be known that their Grand General was either staying in the general’s residence or in the army camp. If a matchmaker wanted to come and matchmake him, he would directly order her to be thrown out.

How could an ascetic monk like their Grand General possibly have a sweetheart?

Although the head butler felt that Feng Lan was making this up, he still went in to report to the general.

At this moment, the Grand General was reading a military book. When he heard the butler say this, he looked up and a strong cold glint flashed across his eyes.

The head butler’s heart skipped a beat and he quickly said, “General, why don’t I reject Guardian Feng?”

With that, he turned to leave.

“Let her in.”

The butler was stunned. In the next second, he quickly replied, “Yes.”

When the butler retreated from the room, his heart was still pounding.

After Feng Lan was brought in, the butler left.

She looked at the Grand General, who was sitting there with a sickly expression but still couldn’t hide the powerful and fierce aura emanating from his body. She slowly walked over and said in a concerned tone, “Didn’t Sister ask you to rest more? Why are you still reading?”

The Grand General looked up at her coldly.

Feng Lan seemed to be used to his att.i.tude towards her. She walked up to him and said, “Not long ago, I saw a dudou¹ at my sister’s place. I thought it looked really nice, so I asked her to give it to me.”

After saying that, she showed him the dudou with lotus flowers embroidered on it.

“But I thought about it. Since you like my sister and she’s going to marry the king soon, why don’t I leave this dudou for you to leave as a keepsake?”

The general looked at the dudou and frowned.

Feng Lan stared at his cold face and asked with a smile, “If you don’t want it, I’ll destroy it.”

“How dare you!”

He s.n.a.t.c.hed the dudou from her hand and said in a low voice, “This is the Priestess’s intimate belonging. If you didn’t want it, why did you ask her for it?”

“Because…” Feng Lan was still smiling, but her smile didn’t reach her eyes. “I want what Sister has, but I don’t want what she has used before.”

When the general heard this, he seemed to have realized something and his expression darkened. “The Priestess is so good to you, but you actually…”

“Good to me? Has she ever asked if I needed her to be good to me?”

Bang!

The general slammed his palm on the table beside him. Several cracks actually appeared in the excellent pear blossom wood.

“You don’t know what’s good for you!”

“Tsk tsk. Grand General, your injuries haven’t recovered. It’s not a good idea to use your internal energy now.”

An undisguised killing intent flashed across his eyes. Seemingly frightened, Feng Lan patted her chest and took two steps back. She asked despite knowing the answer, “Grand General, you don’t want to kill me, do you?”

At this point, the corners of her lips curled up into a strange smile. “Many people saw me coming to the Grand General’s residence. If you dare to do anything to me, Sister will know soon. Moreover…”

At this point, she pointed at the dudou that General had set down beside him. “Sister’s dudou is already with you. Say, if I say something in her ear, will you be able to explain yourself?”

The killing intent in the general’s eyes intensified.

Feng Lan looked at him and the smile in her eyes deepened. “If I tell Sister that you s.n.a.t.c.hed the dudou from me, what do you think Sister will think of you?”

Swoosh…

A fist flew towards Feng Lan’s face.

Feng Lan stood there without dodging. There was actually a trace of smugness in her eyes.

His fist stopped five centimeters away from her.

The general pointed at the door and snapped in a low voice, “Get lost!”

The corners of Feng Lan’s lips twitched. She turned around and walked towards the door. As she walked, she said, “Grand General, I hope you won’t regret it.”

The general waited for Feng Lan to leave before he loosened his clenched fists.

He turned to look at the dudou beside him and reached out to pick it up, but he stopped halfway.

Since Feng Lan had already become like this, he couldn’t let her stay by Feng Ling’s side anymore. She had to be eliminated.

In the end, he still picked up the dudou. However, just as he did so, a ball of black aura entered his body.

The Grand General was shocked and was about to stand up to chase after Feng Lan.

However, once he stood up, he fell straight down.

…

When Feng Ling and the king returned to the palace, the rain had yet to stop.

The king said to Feng Ling, “Let’s go eat first. I’ll send you back after you’re done.”

Feng Ling wanted to go back and change her clothes.

At this moment, the king said in a casual tone, “The plum blossom wine brewed last winter should be ready for consumption.”

When Feng Ling heard this, her eyes lit up. She said with a straight expression, “Then I’ll eat first before going back.”

“Okay.”

When the two of them arrived at the palace, an anxious-looking head butler quickly came over and said to them, “Your Majesty, Priestess, the Grand General suddenly fainted.”

“Why did the general faint?” Chu Luo frowned.

The king asked, “Did you get the imperial physicians to take a look?”

“Yes. The imperial physicians can’t find anything.”

Feng Ling said, “I’ll go take a look.”

As she spoke, she turned around.

The king stopped her. “Change your clothes first. I’ll go with you.”

Feng Ling was about to say that she had no clothes to change into when she heard the chief butler say, “Priestess, the king had already sent your servant to deliver your clothes before you returned.”

Feng Ling subconsciously glanced at the king.

The king said, “Take Little Ling’er to change her clothes.”

“Yes… Priestess, please follow me.”

Feng Ling followed the butler to a side hall.

When she arrived, one of her maidservants was indeed waiting by the door with a set of clothes.

When she saw Feng Ling, she first bowed to her before saying, “Priestess, I’m here to send you your clothes.”

Feng Ling nodded, took the clothes, pushed open the door, and walked in.

After she entered, the maidservant closed the door for her.

This was a room with gorgeous decorations, but it seemed like no one lived here.

Feng Ling didn’t mind. She walked to the room inside, changed her clothes, and walked out.

The maidservant went in to take the clothes she had changed out of.

She went to the front hall.

At this moment, the king had also changed his clothes.

The two of them went to the general’s residence.

After Chu Luo checked the Grand General’s pulse, her frown deepened.

She put General’s hand under the blanket and asked the butler, “Who came today?”

The butler opened his mouth and thought for a while before shaking his head. “Priestess, no one has been here.”

Feng Ling knew that the butler wasn’t lying, so there was only one possibility. After Feng Lan came, she had directly wiped everyone’s memories.

She quickly played the Phoenix Zither.

The sound of the zither was melodious, and the healing energy turned into spots of light that entered the Grand General’s body.

However, after Feng Ling finished playing one song, two songs, and three songs, she suddenly stopped.

She pursed her lips and looked at the unconscious general. She lowered her eyes and thought for a while before looking up at the king. “The Grand General was invaded by a demonic aura. I’ve already removed all the demonic aura in his body, but he’s unwilling to wake up.”

At this point, she frowned.

Although the process was different from what she had experienced before, the ending was the same.

The king frowned when he heard Feng Ling.

“The General’s residence is heavily guarded. How did the Grand General get invaded by a demonic aura?”

After saying that, he asked the butler standing at the side, “Has the Grand General been acting strangely recently?”

“Your Majesty, the Grand General hasn’t been acting strangely.”

Feng Ling could confirm this. “Yes, I even came over to take his pulse yesterday.”

She also knew who had injected the Great General with the demonic aura, but she couldn’t understand why the Grand General didn’t want to wake up himself. Unless…
