Godly Empress Doctor

Chapter 1621: Is Feng Wu Heartless?

Dugu Yamo wanted to applaud Zuo Qingyu.

She didn’t yell hysterically but only sounded disappointed. It was enough to make other people sneer at Feng Wu. Good job, Zuo Qingyu.

Feng Wu looked at the faces in the crowd and suddenly smiled. “That’s right. She’s just a nobody. What value does she have after she’s dead?”

She waved at them and strolled off, her hands behind her back.

That was... unexpected.

Many people here had found Feng Wu quite pleasant because of what she had done recently, but after hearing what she said, their opinion of her quickly dropped to the very bottom.

“This Feng Wu is so vile.”

“That’s right. Even if a person can’t cultivate or doesn’t know any medicine or formation skills, I can still be friends with them as long as they have a good character.”

“So true. So what if she can cultivate and knows all those skills? With her bad behavior, no one will dare get close to her.”

“Do you think His Royal Highness knows about her behavior?”

“Of course not. She must behave differently around His Royal Highness compared with when she’s with us.”

“Is it possible that you’ve been misled? Maybe Feng Wu isn’t like that...”

“She didn’t let it show before because she was still weak and had to play nice. Now that she’s under His Royal Highness’s protection, what more does she need? Her true nature is now showing.”

“Feng Wu is so...”

–

The crowd didn’t use to dislike Feng Wu so much, but people tended to follow the crowd, and when Zuo Qingyu and Dugu Yamo steered the public opinion in that direction, it became justified to trash Feng Wu.

But two people there didn’t think so.

One was Qiuling and the other one was Feng Xun.

Qiuling had grown up with Feng Wu and knew Feng Wu better than anyone else. She had a very clear idea about the relationship between Feng Wu and Chaoge, so she believed from the very beginning that her mistress was doing this for a reason.

Needless to say, Feng Xun trusted Feng Wu.

He left after Feng Wu did.

The crowd slowly dispersed, but in a corner in the reeds —

Two people were crouching there and whispering to each other. “What do you think? Is Feng Wu really that heartless, or did she notice that it isn’t Chaoge’s body?”

“Heh, either way, public opinion is against her now.”

“That’s right. I didn’t expect it to be so easy to smear her name. I thought it would be a lot harder.”

“Heh, all humans have their weaknesses, and Feng Wu’s is that she’s too proud to explain herself.”

“We took advantage of Duan Chaoge’s disappearance and found a body in the water, but I didn’t expect it to work so well.”

“Hmph! So what if Feng Wu behaves well around His Royal Highness? When His Majesty, Her Majesty, and the empress dowager hear about her heartless behavior, they won’t think highly of Feng Wu.”

“Especially Her Majesty the empress dowager. Her Majesty’s impression of Feng Wu improved after she saved her several times, but after today, Her Majesty will dislike Feng Wu all over again.”

“I’m still not close with Her Majesty. Qingyu, I’m afraid that you’ll have to put in a good word for me.”

“My dear princess, please don’t worry —”
