Bai Zhi’er found it a bit strange.
The little one furrowed her adorable brows, showing a puzzled expression.
"Brother Fu Ce is quite powerful, but Wangwang once told that he has known Brother Fu Ce for a long ti."
A Ruo was startled: "If that’s the case, why did Immortal Lord Lu Wang tell that he was just staying by Marquis Wan’s side to observe?"
The master and servant exchanged gazes, both feeling confused and bewildered.
Bai Zhi’er knew that Feng Fuce knew so magic.
That wasn’t really a surprising matter.
In the mortal world, there were also many Taoists, monks, or those cultivating, who knew a bit of Fangshi’s arts.
But Lu Wang was just a Black Bear Immortal, responsible only for trivial chores in the nine layered heaven.
What necessity was there for him to stay in the mortal world just to observe Feng Fuce?
Bai Zhi’er scratched her rosy cheek with her small hand.
The more she thought about it, the stranger it seed.
A Ruo spoke gravely, "Emperor, I suspect that the identity of this Marquis Wan is not as simple as it appears."
Bai Zhi’er blinked her long lashes innocently, lost in thought.
Could it be that Brother Fu Ce is hiding sothing more than just the matter with Ju Zi?
The little one only pondered distressingly for a while before happily eating the pastries again.
A Ruo was sowhat surprised, "Emperor, aren’t you worried?"
"Why worry? Brother Fu Ce isn’t a bad person. Everyone has secrets. Just like when Zhi’er ca from the nine layered heaven, I didn’t even tell my father explicitly!"
A Ruo furrowed her brows, hesitating to speak, "But..."
Bai Zhi’er put a pastry into her hand.
"No ’buts,’ Sister A Ruo. Mother once told that even if many people say soone is bad, but that person has never hard you, you shouldn’t doubt or fear them with everyone else."
As she said this, the little one smiled and lifted the curtain to look back.
Feng Fuce was riding a horse, always following behind the carriage.
He neither overtook it nor forcefully stopped Bai Zhi’er’s carriage.
Feng Fuce probably knew it was wrong to deceive, so he just followed silently with his people.
Bai Zhi’er’s dark eyes were lively, her pink lips murmuring, "I treat Brother Fu Ce as a friend. I believe I haven’t misjudged. Whatever secrets he has, they won’t hurt ."
Hearing her say this, A Ruo could only nod compliantly.
"The Emperor always has good fortune, I’m not worried!"
The carriage stopped once it reached the palace.
After Bai Zhi’er energetically jumped out of the carriage, she looked back once.
Feng Fuce also dismounted, following her not far behind.
The little one pretended to still be angry, giving a heavy ’humph.’
She walked along the palace road towards Ruizhu Palace with small steps.
Feng Fuce just kept following her.
When Bai Zhi’er stopped, he stopped too.
The little one turned back, glaring at him angrily.
Feng Fuce didn’t leave either, his expression calm and composed, silently following her all along.
A Ruo and Lu Wang walked behind them.
"How long do you think this will last?" A Ruo started talking to Lu Wang.
Lu Wang was startled, replying in a muffled voice, "Maybe, once the princess calms down, the gentleman will be fine too."
A Ruo looked at him, "You seem to know the Marquis well?"
Lu Wang avoided her gaze, "In the past, in the mortal world, I once received the grace of this marquis, but I fear he doesn’t rember."
A Ruo’s doubts in her heart were resolved.
She said with so excitent, "It must be when you were a bear, and he saved you, right? That’s how it’s always written in stories from the mortal world!"
