The Tempestuous Consort - Wilfully Pampered by the Beastly Highness - Chapter 569
Chapter 569: Investigate Lin Suyin
At that moment, the people of Beiqi Nation suddenly thought of one word, ‘Lady Phoenix!’
A year ago, there was a rumor about the Lady Phoenix from South Winds Nation. At that time, they were really envy and jealous.
However, they did not have to be envy or jealous now. They now had a Lady Phoenix of their own. This was an auspicious sign —a sign of a prosperous Beiqi Nation!
“The appearance of the phoenix under the command of Princess Yun. This is the Lady Phoenix. The Lady Phoenix who will make our Beiqi Nation prosper!”
“The South Winds Nation has the Demon King who was born with the zhusha mole on his forehead, while we have Princess Yun, who also has a zhusha mole on her forehead. The South Winds Nation has a Lady Phoenix who can summon the phoenix, and so do we. And, she is the same person with the zhusha mole, which represents better luck. Haha! The difference is obvious. Our Beiqi Nation is finally going to be better than the South Winds Nation!”
“After such an incident happened today, Princess Yun summoned that phoenix. She’s the lucky star of our Beiqi Nation. We must show our respect to her properly and stop doubting her like before. She’s our Princess Yun, our Lady Phoenix.”
“But I’ve seen the South Wind Nation’s Fire Phoenix before. It could cover the entire sky, while Princess Yun’s phoenix couldn’t even cover half of the Capital of Beiqi Nation…” Before this person could even finish what he was saying, he was pinned on the ground and beaten up by others.
Ever since then, no one in Beiqi Nation dared to question Gu Yun’s identity as the Lady Phoenix. Whoever dared to question her identity would be beaten up by the crowd. How could one praise others while condemning themself!
Gu Nansheng had been focusing her attention on many different tasks while caring for Feng Tianlan. When she knew about the rumors of Lady Phoenix, it was too late. She could only let them spread rumors saying that the appearance of the phoenix and the coronation of a new emperor would make Beiqi Nation prosperous again.
“Why does everyone want to pretend to be the Lady Phoenix? I really don’t understand what’s so good about it,” Gu Nansheng told Feng Tianlan when she was visiting her. She felt outraged after telling her everything. “Previously it was Tu Xiupei who pretended to be the Lady Phoenix, now it’s Gu Yun. They’re all lunatics.”
Feng Tianlan had just regained consciousness after being in coma for two days, and she had to hear all this right after she woke up. “A fake will always be a fake.” No matter how much one pretended to be real, that person would never be so.
“The commoners don’t understand anything. They just follow what others say blindly. They are all fence-sitters.” After saying that, she looked at Feng Tianlan’s face which was still pale. She then started berating her, “Didn’t I tell you that she has a very powerful Spiritual Emperor around her? Why did you still fight with her? You nearly lost your life.”
Feng Tianlan raised her head and looked at her. “Have you investigated Gu Yun?”
“I have. She just appeared out of nowhere. There’s no trace of any information about her up to half a year ago,” Gu Nansheng said. She started investigating ever since she knew about the appearance of Princess Yun in Beiqi Nation. However, she couldn’t find anything. “Besides, no one on the Guiyuan Continent has seen her face before. Therefore, it’s impossible to find out anything about her.”
“What about Tu Xiupei?”
“Hmm?” Gu Nansheng was shocked for a moment. “Isn’t she dead? She was dead half a year ago… Are you suspecting that Gu Yun is Tu Xiupei?”
“She said it herself.” After talking about it, she decided to tell her the incident regarding Xu Jiayi.
Gu Nansheng paid attention to what she was saying. “I’m unclear about what happened in the past. Take a rest first, I’ll ask my mother about this. She might know something.”
“Azurite.”
Azurite went forward to receive orders from her. “Miss.”
Feng Tianlan pondered for a while and said in a deep voice, “Send people from the Holy Pill City to investigate Tu Xiupei. And, send a batch of Advanced Spiritual Grandmasters or above to the Capital of Beiqi Nation to standby.”
Azurite accepted her orders and left. However, she suddenly heard Feng Tianlan stopping her. She then turned around asking, “Is there anything else, Miss?”
“Investigate Lin Suyin as well,” instructed Feng Tianlan.
