Hearing Nalan Zhangqian’s advice, not only was Feng Ruqing not infuriated, his words had actually warmed her heart as Feng Ruqing could not find a single piece of advice in the memory of the previous princess for years.
Nalan Zhangqian had always been guiding and advising the princess every time she made a mistake during her childhood. However, the princess was too young to understand the reason behind it back then. Ever since she got close to the Noble Consort Rong, the princess had gotten more and more annoyed with Nalan Zhangqian.
Moreover, Nalan Zhangqian did not have much time to guide her. As the emperor was too busy with the kingdom’s affairs, Noble Consort Rong had gradually led her astray. There was once when Nalan Zhangqian had advised the princess again, she had retorted. Since then, Nalan Zhangqian had never chastized her again.
Now that Nalan Zhangqian had given her a few words of advice, apparently, he was no longer holding a grudge against her.
“What are you laughing at?” Seeing Feng Ruqing laughed, Nalan Zhangqian frowned as he asked.
“Uncle, my father has always been busy, and my mother passed away when I was little. I am so fortunate to have you who have always been guiding me. However, I was too ignorant and have upset you in the past. That was not all, I have even trusted Noble Consort Rong so much so that I have broken your heart. I will never do that again in the future.” Feng Ruqing smiled as she shook her head.
Slightly startled, Nalan Zhangqian’s body stiffened.
As Nalan Zhangqian only had a son, he had treated Feng Ruqing as his own daughter. When Feng Ruqing was little, she was extremely adorable and sensible. However, things had completely changed ever since she had met Noble Consort Rong.

“It is my fault. If only I could spend more time with you and keep you company when you left the palace back then, you would not have gotten closer to Noble Consort Rong, and things would have been entirely different.” Nalan Zhangqian smiled wryly.
“Uncle, do you truly think that if you have stopped me from leaving the palace alone, Feng Rushuang would not hurt herself to save me, and I would not have felt gratitude toward Noble Consort Rong? You are wrong. Feng Rushuang would still get hurt because of me.” Feng Ruqing burst out in laughter.
Feng Ruqing had said it forthrightly. Apparently, people around her could quickly understand her words.
“Qing’er, you are saying that… the person who wanted to hurt you when you left the palace back then took orders from Noble Consort Rong?” Master Nalan looked hard at Feng Ruqing as he held her hands tightly.
“If I don’t know Feng Rushuang well, perhaps, I would have truly thought that she would give up her own life to save mine. However, I know her so well and I know that she is such a selfish lady. Naturally, she would not do so. Hence, I suspect that this is Noble Consort Rong’s conspiracy.” Feng Ruqing lowered her eyes.
However, even the emperor was not capable of getting the culprit. Noble Consort Rong was really something, and someone must be backing her.
“Liu Rong!” Nalan Zhangqian’s hands balled into fists, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
If Liu Rong was truly the master behind it, she had nearly destroyed Feng Ruqing’s life. Nalan Zhangqian would not let her off the hook so easily. He must take Liu Rong’s life no matter who had her back.
“Uncle, let’s not talk about this. Where is Aunt?” Feng Ruqing’s gaze scanned her surroundings as she asked.
As Feng Ruqing’s aunt loved Nalan Dai’er so much, she must have lost her mind, knowing that Nalan Dai’er had left General Manor. Since Nalan Dai’er was back, she must be the first person to come out. However, Feng Ruqing’s aunt was nowhere to be found.
