Chapter 1525: Innocence (6)

It was simply so delicious!

He had never tried anything so wonderful before!

Master Bai wasn’t the only one. Other people reacted the same way.

Mrs Dugu and Mrs Zuo looked at one another, and both seemed surprised. What was wrong with these people? Why did they look like they had just taken opium and lost their minds?

Feng Xun gave everyone Feng Wu’s fish first before giving them the fish which the fifth princess had brought in.

“Oh, G.o.d! What the h.e.l.l is that?!”

After tasting Feng Wu’s roast fish, they couldn’t stand something that was so subpar!

It wasn’t just worse. It was a polar opposite to what Feng Wu made!

“How can they possibly have been made by the same person?”

“They definitely didn’t come from the same cook!”

“Feng Wu is such an amazing cook. How can this horrible fish be her work?”

Hearing the comments, Feng Wu knew that she had almost succeeded.

She turned to Emperor Wu and asked confidently, “Your Majesty, have you tasted the difference?”

She had already removed the tickling powder from the fifth princess’s fish, and she was determined to show other people the difference.

Emperor Wu felt very conflicted.

He wasn’t an idiot, so of course he could taste the difference.

Because of that, he couldn’t help Jun Wuxia even if he wanted to.

Emperor Wu stared at Jun Wuxia with a stern look on his face and wouldn’t say a word.

But everyone could tell that a storm was coming.

“What else do you have to say for yourself now?!” Emperor Wu stared at Jun Wuxia, looking very intimidating!

Jun Wuxia had also tasted the fish roasted by Feng Wu, so she knew how different the two were!

“Father, it wasn’t me… I really didn’t roast the fis.h.!.+ I didn’t!”

Emperor Wu snorted. “If you didn’t, who did?!”

“I have no idea…”

“You don’t? Didn’t you just say that Feng Wu was the one who roasted the fish, but now you’re saying that you don’t know?!” Emperor Wu pressed on.

With everything that had happened, Jun Wuxia no longer dared to blame Feng Wu.

After all, Feng Wu had just proven her innocence with her own talent!

“I… I thought it was Feng Wu before who roasted it, but… but it turns out that she’s not the culprit. So, it has to be someone else…” Jun Wuxia’s voice trailed off.

She hadn’t mentioned Feng Xun’s name so far, because she knew that if she gave Feng Xun up, nothing could ever happen between the two of them after this.

Feng Xun would never forgive her.

“You’re full of lies! A princess like you is a humiliation to the Junwu Empire! Take her down! I’m going to remove her t.i.tle and make her a commoner —”

“Your Majesty —

“Your Majesty —

“Father —”

Jun Wuxia finally panicked. She rushed up to Emperor Wu, wrapped her arms around his thigh, and burst into tears. “Father, father, please don’t! I remember now! It was Feng Xun! Feng Xun gave us those fis.h.!.+”

Jun Wuxia finally made the choice between her t.i.tle and her love.

Immediately, everyone gave Feng Xun strange looks.

They didn’t expect him to be implicated.

But Feng Xun was very calm.

Emperor Wu stared at Jun Wuxia. “Are you telling the truth?”
