Emperor Wu remained unperturbed. "Go on."
"Your Majesty, the only connection between Feng Wu and my family is…" Mr Zuo wanted to mention the crown prince, but the marriage contract between Zuo Qingluan and Jun Linyuan was still uncertain. Mr Zuo didn't want to offend the emperor, so he changed the subject. "The only connection is that Feng Wu used to have the True Phoenix Blood as Zuo Qingluan does now."
Emperor Wu nodded.
"But then, Feng Wu lost her ability somehow and became crippled, whereas Zuo Qingluan has risen above all her peers. Right now, she's already a Spiritual Elder!
"Your Majesty, as a leading figure of the Zuo clan, why would I need to do anything to a crippled girl like Failure Wu? She's too unimportant for me to handle personally. She's not worth it."
Mr Zuo darted a contemptuous glance at Feng Wu.
