Princess Huazhen envied Feng Shu for being able to travel the world and admire the magnificent landscapes of Yanyang, but the Crown Prince knew what Feng Shu was truly doing—devoting herself wholeheartedly to the Northern Iron Cavalry and Xie Zhang.
The Crown Prince intentionally steered the conversation, almost all topics centering around Feng Shu. Fengyu could see that her elder sister actually wanted to redirect the conversation to the eldest sister and Prince Duan, but was unable to succeed.
Such subtle nuances were imperceptible to others, and the atmosphere at the table remained harmonious.
"Why don't you ever go out with your second sister?" Prince Kang asked Fengyu.
Fengyu replied sadly, "I'm weak and sickly, can't live past eighteen, and can't endure long journeys."
The crowd, "..."
The air suddenly turned chilly!
"Really?" Prince Kang widened his eyes, seeming almost gleeful, "You're that frail?"
"You look rather pleased," she remarked.
