At this moment, both were immensely afraid. Bai Susu, because recently she had been in contact with too many plague patients, led to her own infection. Seeing the two so nervous, Bai Susu quickly said, "I’m fine, it was just a tickle in my throat earlier. You continue talking?"
Yet, could Feng Qiwu and Prime Minister Bai continue their conversation at this time?
Hearing Bai Susu say it was merely a throat tickle, both visibly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It’s good that you’re okay."
Afterward, Prime Minister Bai glanced at Feng Qiwu, "Crown Prince, shall we go to the study to talk?"
"Okay." Feng Qiwu nodded.
Then he said to Bai Susu, "Susu, you’ve been too exhausted these days. You should return to your room and rest now. Don’t let your health suffer because of saving others."
Prime Minister Bai immediately nodded upon hearing this.
In his heart, he thought that the Crown Prince was now learning to say sensible things.
Bai Susu looked at the two somewhat worriedly, "Uh, you make sure to speak well, alright?"
Hearing this, Feng Qiwu immediately gained some understanding.
So he quickly smiled at her and said, "Don’t worry, after all, the Prime Minister is my grandfather, and I absolutely wouldn’t make him angry."
Upon these words, Prime Minister Bai couldn’t help but glare at him.
Wouldn’t make him angry?
If the Feng Family’s ancestor were still alive, I’m afraid he would be angered to death by you!
However, the Crown Prince had helped the Bai Family a lot this time, so Prime Minister Bai didn’t argue back.
When the two went to Prime Minister Bai’s study, Bai Susu also let out a breath.
Then she rubbed her temples and really returned to her room to rest.
Recently, she had been busy with plague matters, and truly hadn’t rested well. If Feng Qiwu hadn’t come to sleep with her each night to ensure her sleep quality, with her fragile body, how could she have lasted till now?
She just hopes that after cultivation, her physique can become strong, as described in those cultivation novels.
That way, staying up for half a month might not be a problem then.

When Feng Qiwu followed Prime Minister Bai to his study, he saw that the previously kind and gentle expression in front of Bai Susu changed, and he began to directly assess Feng Qiwu, as if evaluating something.
Seeing this, Feng Qiwu couldn’t help but narrow his eyes, sensing some guesses.
It’s known that Prime Minister Bai is an old fox; his ability to sit steadily in the top seat below the emperor, given Feng Qingyang’s suspicious nature, already shows his competence.
Previously, he would never view anyone with such a scrutinizing and evaluative gaze, let alone him, the Crown Prince.
Now he looked at him so boldly and undisguisedly...
Thinking of this, Feng Qiwu straightforwardly asked, "Prime Minister, why are you looking at me ?"
"With the Crown Prince’s intelligence, surely you have guessed, haven’t you?" Prime Minister Bai directly said.
Feng Qiwu looked at him indifferently, then squinted his eyes and asked, "Prime Minister has been loyal to my father for many years, so why the sudden change? How do I know... if you’re not collaborating with my father to set a trap for me?"
Such things, they aren’t incapable of doing.
Prime Minister Bai snorted lightly upon hearing this.
"Not to say anything else, but you did inherit the emperor’s suspicious nature!"
This began to suspect his intentions.
Yet upon hearing Prime Minister Bai’s words, Feng Qiwu’s face suddenly darkened.
"Prime Minister Bai, I hope you remember that even though I have an inseparable blood relationship with that ungrateful scoundrel, I’m entirely different from him!"
Inherit Feng Qingyang’s nature?
