"empress has arrived." The eunuch spoke in a shrill voice.

Qin Feng followed the crowd and turned his gaze, to see a very graceful woman. The woman was not extremely beautiful, but she had an indescribable temperament about her that caused others to not dare to meet her gaze. The golden robe was embroidered with dancing phoenixes, looking extremely lifelike.

"Greetings empress." Everyone bowed.

The empress waved her hand. "Get up."

Qin Feng stood up and stood in the crowd, occasionally sizing up the Queen. The empress looked very kind, but Qin Feng knew that if a woman could sit in the empress's position, then she would definitely not be a simple person.

"These women are truly beautiful." Looking at the girls, the Queen smiled and looked at the Fourth Prince, "I wonder if Ling'er has taken a fancy to any of them?"

"Imperial Mother, Fourth Brother is not kind." The crown prince smiled as he replied to the empress. "I had Fifth Brother and us watch a boring performance here, but I had a nice chat with the woman I like."

Hearing the crown prince's words, Qin Wu secretly clenched her teeth and looked at Qin Feng, his eyes filled with hatred. To be told that the Crown Prince's performance was boring, it was a naked slap to the face. Qin Wu blamed this on Qin Feng, it must be because of Qin Feng, that caused him to get bored from the crown prince's words.

His eyes secretly swept across Qin Feng, who intentionally wanted Qin Feng to be scolded by the Queen.

"Elder sister, little sister is straightforward. Please don't take what you said just now to heart." Qin Wu smiled as she walked towards Qin Feng, and seemed to be holding onto Qin Feng's hand intimately.

"Sister, you're overthinking it." Qin Feng looked at Qin Wu with a smile that was not really a smile. She did not have much of an expression on her face, and only glanced at Qin Wu's hands, only to see that Qin Wu's hands were on her clothes. Qin Feng laughed secretly, she knew that Qin Wu was going to attack.

Qin Feng pretended not to notice Qin Wu's little movements and allowed him to do whatever she wanted.

"Aiya!" As if stepping on a small rock, Qin Wu's body tilted and was about to fall. In a moment of desperation, her hands waved wildly, and in the end, grabbed onto Qin Feng's clothes. With a ripping sound, the outer layer of white muslin on Qin Feng's clothes was torn off, revealing her true appearance.

Gasps suddenly came from the surrounding area, as if they were extremely surprised by the pattern within Qin Feng's clothes.

Qin Wu lied on the ground, looking extremely ugly. She had clearly calculated it beforehand, so what kind of fall looked the most beautiful. However, for some reason, her waist suddenly went soft, and she fell onto the ground, looking extremely unsightly.

"This set of clothes... "This pattern …" The surrounding people were dumbstruck for a moment before finally regaining their senses. They pointed at the patterns on Qin Feng's clothes, somewhat unable to speak.

The empress was right here, Qin Feng was finished.

"This trick is too beautiful!" A lady beside him said with envy, "Sister, may I ask what kind of birds are painted on it? How come I've never seen them before?"

"These are the elite guards." Qin Feng said indifferently, her voice was extremely pleasant to hear.

"Guard, I've never heard of such a bird." Another woman spoke up.

"The Guardian is the bird of the mysterious Eastern Kingdom." When Qin Feng talked about the elite guards, a faint yearning could be seen in her eyes. In this world that she did not know, she deeply missed the home country that she was born in.

"Mysterious birds?" The empress opened her mouth. "It's actually quite an ingenious painting."

After listening for a long time, Qin Wu realized that it was completely different from what she had expected. Qin Wu raised her head and looked at Qin Feng's clothes. As a result, she discovered that the pattern on top of the clothes was actually not that of the Phoenix she had prepared beforehand, but that of a bird she had never seen before.

"This is impossible!" Because she was too shocked, Qin Wu almost blurted out these words of shock.

"Impossible what?" Qin Feng curled her lips and looked at Qin Wu.

Only now did Qin Wu realize that her performance was just too agitated. She immediately calmed the doubts and shock in her heart and put on a gentle expression, smiling as she said, "Sister, little sister is only a little surprised by the pattern on it. "Elder sister said that this unknown creature is a bird from the mysterious Eastern Kingdom. She only raised her doubts."

"This bird is a godly bird, not some unknown bird. Sis, if you say such nonsense, you might incur the wrath of the heavens. " Qin Feng opened her mouth and said, "There is actually a very beautiful story regarding the elite guards. "The guard was a very kind bird. It was said that a long time ago, the sea was going to flood the entire continent, so the guard picked up a stone and threw it into the sea piece by piece. He wanted to fill up the sea and calm the disaster."

"Elder sister, your words are too ridiculous." Qin Wu mocked, "The sea is boundless, how can you fill it up with a rock?"

Qin Feng indifferently swept a glance at Qin Wu, and said, "The behavior of the elite guards has finally moved the heavens, and the heavens have helped them fill in the ocean. However, the elite soldiers did not know this, and continued to reclaim the sea day after day, until they die. "

"You speak quite well. This spirit is worthy of praise." The Queen clapped her hands and looked at Qin Feng with eyes filled with admiration.

Qin Feng smiled towards the Queen, her brows filled with neither arrogance nor servility, retreating neither at all.

"The home tutor of the General's family is truly extraordinary. No wonder he was able to bring up such a daughter." The Empress took off the hairpin on her head, walked into Qin Feng and stuck it on Qin Feng's head, "This hairpin was given to me by the Emperor when I first entered the palace. I'll give it to you now, you're more suitable for this hairpin than I am."

"Thank you empress for your gift." Qin Feng lowered her head and replied.

"Alright, it's getting late. You can leave now." The Queen waved her hand.

Everyone saluted and left together.

Qin Wu stomped her feet, looking at the hairpin on Qin Feng's head, her eyes was filled with jealousy. She did not know what had happened, but not only did she not let Qin Feng get scolded by the empress, she had even made Qin Feng shine. Just the thought of it made him feel stifled.

Qin Wu was filled with unwillingness, but in the end, she could only turn around and leave.

"Wait a minute!" Before they had even taken a few steps, the empress's authoritative voice boomed once more, filled with rage.
