Only Then Will He Be Able to Protect You

The first thing Lady Northern Feng did after she left the imperial palace was to summon Feng Wu.

"The last thing His Majesty said was that you could address His Royal Highness as 'cousin'?" Lady Northern Feng frowned.

Feng Wu was confused. "Didn't His Majesty want me to stay away from Jun Linyuan? Why would he want me to become Jun Linyuan's cousin?"

"I think I know why."

"Why?"

"Because Princess Wanning used to follow him around and he ended up making this announcement."

Lady Northern Feng looked into Feng Wu's eyes and stressed each word. "He said that he would never marry a cousin. From then on, all those princesses stopped throwing themselves at him and left him in peace."

Feng Wu said, "He can do that? Holy shit!"

Lady Northern Feng smacked her on the back of her head. "You're a girl; mind your language."

"…Alright." Feng Wu rubbed her head.
