"Yun Luofeng, His Majesty commands you to bring your maidservant to enter the palace for an audience with His Majesty. We shall depart immediately without delay!" the eunuch's voice was sharp like needles as he coldly ordered.

"Maidservant?"

The gaze of the old man turned to Yun Luofeng, and he frowned. "What did your maidservant do? Why are they asking you to bring your maidservant for an audience with His Majesty?"

Yun Luofeng shrugged. "The maidservant that he's referring to is Ning Xin."

Ning Xin? Maidservant?

The old man was completely stupefied. Did the imperial clan's people actually address Ning Xin as a maidservant? Although he was still unaware of the true identity of Ning Xin, her identity could be seen from the way the Medical Pavilion's Elder Rong treated Elder Ning.

But these people actually called her a maidservant? He had no clue where their arrogance came from. How could they consider such a composed and beautiful girl as a maidservant?

"Yun Luofeng, what are you dillydallying for? Why haven't you come with me yet to meet His Majesty!" seeing the aloof Yun Luofeng, the eunuch said with a frosty face.

The old man's expression instantly darkened. "Feng'er, since the Emperor is making you go, then Grandfather will accompany you. With me present, I would like to see what they can do to you!"

Hearing Yun Luo's words, the eunuch's face revealed an obvious disdain.

Wasn't the Emperor the one who owned the land in this entire world? Yun Luo was only a general in name, what qualifications did he possess to oppose His Majesty? Now that Yun Luofeng and her maidservant did such a cruel thing, there was no way that His Majesty would so easily pardon her.

"I will go with you."

Suddenly, a low and rough voice was heard from behind. After hearing the man's voice, Yun Luofeng slowly turned around, her sight landing on the man.

The man's features were cool as his dark eyes deeply watched her. Not a trace of expression could be seen on his emotionless face, but at this moment, Yun Luofeng could still feel the concern in his heart.

"Very well." She raised her lips with a bewitching smile and her voice was as carefree as before, but it undoubtedly revealed her trust in the man.

With Yun Luofeng's current ability, she would not be afraid of something like the imperial clan, however, if Yun Xiao followed her, her heart would undeniably feel very safe.

"Wait for me."

At this time, a melodious voice was heard from the side.

When Yun Luofeng turned her head, she caught sight of Ning Xin quickly running towards her with a gentle smile on her pretty face. "Xiao Feng, this matter was instigated by me, so I will come with you to meet this so-called emperor and also see how the people of the imperial clan bully you while I'm at it."

Understandably, the current Yun Luofeng weighted heavily in Ning Xin's heart and was only second to her most respected grandfather. Thus, she would not permit anyone to bully Yun Luofeng at all.

Especially if it was in front of her.

"Who are you?" seeing Ning Xin's contempt for the imperial household, the eunuch abruptly bellowed. "How dare you look down on His Majesty? Sure enough, a master like you will raise a dog like you!"

Ning Xin did not wish to argue with him, so she only gave him a dry look before turning her head to look at Yun Luofeng. "Initially, I wanted to wait for my grandfather to return and have him handle the trouble that we caused. I didn't think that the imperial clan's people would seek us this fast. Xiao Feng, don't worry, I promised my grandfather that I would protect you well when he left."

Seeing Ning Xin disregarding him like this, the eunuch's complexion grew more unsightly. "Why are you still dawdling here? His Majesty is already waiting for you in the palace. Would you be able to handle the responsibility for delaying us? If we still don't depart, this eunuch will have you tied up!"
