Taking three quick strides toward the Qianqing Palace, Feng Jiwu appeared to move slowly, yet he was extremely fast.
In the past few days, due to focusing on the anomalies related to Qing Yu, Feng Jiwu indeed had neglected the Empress. Even though the Empress had been residing in the Qianqing Palace all this time, together with Feng Jiwu, he still felt a sense of indebtedness.
No sooner had he rushed to the Qianqing Palace than Feng Jiwu received a cold reception from Feng Chuhuan.
As a close friend of Si Qingwei, the Empress, Feng Chuhuan had been visiting daily, showing great concern for the unborn nephew or niece.
Under these circumstances, with Feng Jiwu's continued absence and previous grievances, it was no wonder she harbored hostility toward him.
"Isn't this His Majesty? Why, have you decided not to attend to your own affairs today?" Feng Chuhuan said in a strange, mocking tone, her demeanor quite like that of a belligerent old woman.
