Chapter 1120: Chapter 1119: Omnipotent in Heaven and Earth

Feng Qihe said nothing.

Fu Ning didn’t want to waste his precious time, but as a mere maid, it wasn’t her place to say much in his presence.

She added, "To my knowledge, it was not intentional to avoid the meeting today."

As for tomorrow, whether the Prince would meet Feng Qihe when he arrived was the Prince’s business, not hers.

The Prince today, drunk as he was, naturally, it was inconvenient for him to receive guests.

"All right, I believe you."

But Feng Qihe still did not want to leave, "Where does Lili live? Has anyone given her trouble since she arrived?"

"Our lady is very well at the moment. The Princess has already arranged a place for her to stay and has been very kind to her. In these last few days living here, she might be even better off."

By ’better off,’ it meant, at least much better than at Prince Yu’s Residence.

Here, there were no dangerous characters like Chu Feiyan.

Feng Qihe’s thick brows remained lightly furrowed.

Jinghong hurriedly said, "My Prince, we have not yet had an audience with the Emperor of Nanming. Perhaps we should first enter the palace for the audience."

How could they waste time here when such important matters awaited them?

What could he gain from seeing the Prince? It was all for Chu Qianli.

The Prince was famously averse to making friends or alliances with others; even seeing him would be fruitless.

The Prince really was besotted by Chu Qianli’s beauty.

Feng Qihe, with no choice, was persuaded by Jinghong to return.

After Fu Ning returned to Chu Qianli’s bedroom, the first thing she did was bring up Feng Qihe.

"Prince He is truly taken with you. Everyone knows he came to win over Prince Yu, but he didn’t even meet with Prince Yu and hastened to seek an audience with our Prince; it’s all for you, my lady."

Chu Qianli was still organizing her belongings.

Upon hearing this, she did not even lift an eyelid.

"You think Feng Qihe is as simple as he seems to you? You’re too naive, girl. You’ll be easily fooled in the future."

"My lady, whether I’ll be fooled in the future is not a topic we need to discuss right now, but I can see with my own eyes that Prince He truly cares for you."

But Chu Qianli obviously had no interest in this topic, "Well, have you seen Shiyi?"

"I did," Fu Ning approached, setting down the snacks they had bought on the table and lowered her voice, "Prince Xuan indeed went to Prince Jing’s Residence."

Going out to buy snacks was, of course, just an excuse to leave.

However, to avoid suspicion, they did purchase some genuinely tasty treats to bring back.

After arranging the food, the two of them sat down at the table to eat and talk.

Fu Ning continued, "His Majesty is going to see the State Preceptor at Lingjiu Hall today..."

"The Emperor has to go in person to see the State Preceptor?" This State Preceptor’s status seemed quite high!

Fu Ning explained, "According to Shiyi, the State Preceptor lives in Lingjiu Hall year-round, only occasionally appearing at the halls of the Imperial Family, and mostly, he doesn’t leave his own hall."

"Every time he comes out, he wears a veil, and very few members of the Imperial Family have seen his true face."

"They say he looks like a young man who has been practicing beside the old State Preceptor since childhood, and after the old State Preceptor passed away, he became the State Preceptor."

"There are rumors that this State Preceptor, knowledgeable in the ancient ways and understanding of the present, can even see into the future. He is not only well-versed in astronomy and geography but also in spells and arrays as if they were at his fingertips?"

Chu Qianli had long been fascinated by this legendary State Preceptor of Nanming Country, "Of the sort that is omnipotent? I wonder if he truly has an understanding of the future?"
