Chapter 32 Romantic Encounters

"Fear! Of course I'm afraid!"

Wu Tianjiao said, "But Your Majesty needs a reason to kill someone, right? It was Your Majesty who summoned me for questioning,

not me. Even if Your Majesty wanted to punish me for a serious offense of disrespect, would you really go so far as to behead me?"

Cao Tian'e said calmly, "I will not punish you, nor do I want your life. I summoned you here to

thank you properly!"

"Thank me?"

Wu Tianjiao was bewildered and asked, "Thank me for what?"

Cao Tian'e smiled and said, "Thank you for catching my sister just now and saving her!"

"Your sister!"

Wu Tianjiao suddenly realized and laughed, "So that beautiful lady was Your Majesty's sister! No need to thank me! No need to

thank me! It was just a coincidence, a mere coincidence!"

Cao Tian'e said, "You saved my sister, so I will naturally reward you properly. What reward do you want?

"

"A reward..." Wu Tianjiao pondered for a moment, then beamed and said, "Your Majesty! Will

you grant me any reward I ask for?"

Cao Tian'e nodded and said, "As long as your reward is not excessive, I will naturally fulfill it to the best of my ability!

"

"Very well!"

Wu Tianjiao said, "I don't want Your Majesty's reward, I only ask Your Majesty to grant me a small

request!"

Oh! Cao Tian'e was greatly surprised and asked, "What request?"

Wu Tianjiao said, "I would like to ask Your Majesty to plead for the people and request His Majesty to issue an edict to stop noble children from

riding horses recklessly in the streets and causing unnecessary deaths."

Hearing this, everyone around was stunned. No one expected that Wu Tianjiao would

make . The female guard, Feng Ying, glanced at Wu Tianjiao with surprise, thinking, "Who exactly is this kid

? How dare he make a request of Her Majesty the Empress?"

Cao Tian'e looked at Wu Tianjiao with interest and smiled, "The Imperial Law clearly stipulates that unless there is

a major military emergency, no one is allowed to ride horses on the streets of the capital. Little fellow, you've made this

request to me. Could it be that some noble children in the capital are riding horses on the streets?"

"That's right!"

Wu Tianjiao said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, some noble children in the capital, relying on their status as imperial relatives, disregard

the law, riding horses on the streets, acting arrogantly and wantonly, causing great suffering to the people. Therefore, I urge Your Majesty

to speak to His Majesty and issue an order to stop others from riding horses on the streets and disregarding human life!"

"The Imperial Law forbids the empress from interfering in politics. Little fellow, do you want me to interfere in politics?"

Cao Tian'e said sternly. Wu Tianjiao said, "Your Majesty is merely advocating for the people and enforcing imperial laws; it doesn't constitute

interference in politics . I believe His Majesty wouldn't want the people of the capital to be filled with resentment and discontent!"

"Very well! For the sake of the capital's peace and the people's well-being, I grant your request!"

Cao Tian'e said sternly, "Little fellow! You said someone, relying on their imperial connections, rode wildly in the streets. Who are you

referring to?"

Wu Tianjiao chuckled, "I don't know his name, but I heard he shares the same surname as Your Majesty, hehe!

Your Majesty only needs to send someone to investigate, and you'll know who he is!"

Cao Tian'e was incredibly clever; she immediately understood his implication. Her face instantly darkened, her pupils contracted, revealing

two terrifying glints of light, and she said sternly, "No matter who it is, anyone who violates imperial laws

will be severely punished once verified! Little fellow! I have granted your request; shouldn't you reveal your identity to me?

"

"Sister! I know him! He's Wu Tianjiao, the illegitimate son of the Prince of Jinyang!"

Suddenly, Cao Wenrong walked in from outside the circle, pointing at Wu Tianjiao. He had returned earlier and stood aside listening to Wu

Tianjiao's complaints, his teeth itching with hatred. However, he looked rather disheveled, covered in sweat and

mud , his clothes torn in several places, his face grime-covered.

"Wu Tianjiao!"

Cao Tian'e suddenly realized, nodding and saying, "I wondered which young master was so bold, so it's the third

young master of the Wu family! Impressive! Impressive! Truly, like father, like son! The third young master is a young hero, I have learned a lot!"

As she spoke, her tone turned cold and somewhat harsh.

Wu Tianjiao immediately sensed something was wrong upon hearing this, and chuckled, saying, "Your Majesty flatters me! This young master has been out for a long time

and must hurry back to study, so I will now bid you farewell!"

With that, he clasped his hands in a fist, curtsied, and turned to leave.

"Third Young Master! Don't rush off!"

Cao Tian'e suddenly giggled sweetly.

Feng Ying and three other female guards immediately blocked Wu Tianjiao's path. They were the four sword attendants trained by Empress Cao Tian'e over

many years . With just a glance, a gesture, or a word from the Empress, they could

understand each other perfectly. The four women also had very unique names: Feng Ying, Hua Xiang, Xue Chang, and Yue Ying, which together mean "wind, flowers, snow,

and moon." Their names were elegant, and they were beautiful, but they were extremely rude. They directly pushed Wu Tianjiao

back to the carriage, and Feng Ying seized the opportunity to retaliate. If not now, when? Without any hesitation

, she kicked him hard, sending him sprawling onto the carriage seat, clutching his wound and screaming, "Ouch!"

Those around couldn't help but chuckle, especially Cao Wenrong, who chuckled maliciously, "Wind Shadow Heroine!

Go easy on him, don't kick him too hard. If he can't handle it, you'll regret it!"

This caused the Golden Eagle Guards nearby to burst into laughter. Wu Tianjiao was both angry and furious, secretly regretting his actions . He lamented

that he shouldn't have been so presumptuous as to make any demands of Cao Tian'e; now he had brought trouble upon himself. Although somewhat uneasy, he was

n't afraid. After all, he was the son of the Prince of Jinyang; would Cao Tian'e dare kill him? He

straightened up , his back straight, and looked at Cao Tian'e without fear, calmly saying, "Your Majesty,

what do you mean by this? You won't let me leave. Do you have any advice for me?"

Cao Tian'e saw that he had suddenly become so bold and fearless, and she secretly praised him, thinking to herself, "Indeed, like

father, like son. Every man of the Wu family is outstanding. Even a village girl and her illegitimate child are brave and unyielding when faced with danger

!"

Thinking of this, she smiled slightly and said, "I dare not presume to offer advice, but I suddenly thought that rather than granting your

request, it would be better if you came with me to the palace to meet His Majesty and report to him in person."

"What? To see His Majesty?" Wu Tianjiao was startled and momentarily at a loss. He was young and inexperienced,

inexperienced in grand occasions. To suddenly meet the supreme ruler of the Divine Eagle Empire was something even the boldest man

couldn't help but feel apprehensive about.

"Let's go! Back to the palace!"

Cao Tian'e commanded, and the procession set off, heading towards the palace in a grand procession. Wu Tianjiao was

escorted by two Golden Eagle Guards onto a yellow horse. This was his first time riding a horse, and he hadn't expected to

do it under such circumstances. Needless to say, his riding skills were lacking, but fortunately, he possessed considerable martial arts skills, so he didn't

panic. He rode steadily and slowly.

Feng Ying had her eye on Wu Tianjiao, as if wary of him escaping halfway. She rode around him, constantly scrutinizing him from head

to toe. Seeing his tense body, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, saying, "Third Young Master! I see you

... it seems like this is your first time riding a horse, Princess! The son of the Prince of Jinyang can't ride a horse? You're truly the most shameless

old woman in the world!"

Wu Tianjiao blushed with embarrassment, snorted, and retorted, "What's so funny about not knowing how to ride a horse? There are plenty of people my age who can't ride a horse. I'm not the only one. Everyone has a first time. Did you know everything from

the moment you were born ?" 　　This question stumped Feng Ying. Thinking about it, it made sense. Wu Tianjiao was just the Prince of Jinyang's illegitimate son, and he had only been in the capital two months. It wasn't surprising that he couldn't ride a horse. There were plenty of people in the world who couldn't ride horses; Wu Tianjiao was just one of them. Thinking this to himself, he didn't mince words, chuckling, "Who doesn't know that Wu Wudi, the Prince of Jinyang, is a His two sons, Wu Tianlong and Wu Tianhu, are also young and promising, outstanding individuals. And you, as the third son of the Wu family, can't even ride a horse? Don't you disgrace the Wu family? You're 　　a laughingstock!" "Is it funny?" 　　Wu Tianjiao didn't care, coldly retorting, "If you think it's funny, then laugh out loud. Nobody's stopping you. Go ahead and laugh, let's see if your teeth fall out!" 　　Feng Ying was furious, raising his whip to lash at him, but then realized his mistake and withdrew it, coldly sneering, " Boy! Don't be so glib. Wait until we get to the palace, see how I deal with you! Hmph!" 　　Saying this, he turned away, ignoring him completely. 　　Uh! Hearing her words, Wu Tianjiao's heart skipped a beat, a chill ran down his spine, and the hairs on his body stood on end. He felt a sinister aura and his hair stood on end. He thought, "To deal with me? Does that mean the Empress is taking me to the palace not to see His Majesty?" 　　The thought sent a shiver down his spine. He wanted to escape, but he was surrounded by the ferocious Golden Eagle Guards, especially Feng Ying, who was following him closely. There was nowhere to run! 　　What should he do? Was he just going to walk into the lion's den? Wu Tianjiao was secretly anxious, racking his brains for a way to escape. However, even if he had a thousand plans, he was trapped in this situation. 　　After walking for nearly half an hour, the group arrived at the Imperial Square in front of the palace. The Imperial Square was one of the symbols . At the center of the square was a circular pool ten zhang in diameter, in which stood a colossal statue, five zhang tall. The statue depicted a majestic, golden-armored general standing with his hands behind his back, a sword at his waist, his head held high, exuding pride and grandeur. A large, lifelike golden eagle perched on the general's right shoulder. The statue was exquisitely crafted , with sharp, defined edges, a masterpiece of artistry, truly breathtaking. 　　Wu Tianjiao, who had been in the capital for several months, was visiting the Imperial Square for the first time. Although it was his first time, he was very familiar with it and knew the statue in the center clearly. The statue in the pool was of Yuwen Ying, the founding emperor of the Divine Eagle Empire, and the eagle perched on his shoulder was the golden eagle, a level nine magical beast that had been his companion since childhood.
