The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 833: Chapter 814: The Strongest Fox Spirit 14

Anning still visited Li Jing and his wife.

She didn’t say much, just mentioned that she really liked Nezha, happened to meet him, and brought him home.

Later, she talked to Lady Yin about teaching Nezha some social etiquette. She didn’t stay long at Chentang Pass; after playing with Nezha for a few days, she bid farewell and left.

At this time, Feng Anan and her party had already reached Chaoge.

Naturally, upon their arrival, they couldn’t directly meet Emperor Shang but instead rested at the Guest House for a few days, grooming before entering the palace.

Queen Jiang heard that Su Hu’s daughter had arrived in Chaoge, and these days, she truly couldn’t eat or sleep.

Whenever she closed her eyes, she dreamt of being gouged out and having her heart cut by Su Daji. Upon waking, she dared not sleep anymore, and within a few days, Queen Jiang had lost weight noticeably.

That day, Feng Anan finally entered the palace.

Emperor Shang was quite concerned about this matter, primarily because several people had been praising Su Hu’s daughter’s beauty, saying she was extraordinarily beautiful. Being a man with a fondness for beauty, Emperor Shang was particularly eager to see what Miss Su looked like.

That day in the court, an envoy reported, ”Great King, I have successfully brought Su Hu’s daughter to the palace.”

Emperor Shang smiled and said, ”Summon her.”

Feng Anan followed the Palace Attendant and walked gracefully into the hall.

She had deliberately dressed up while at the Guest House.

Anning had taught her many makeup techniques, and since she was a demon, her appearance and figure were naturally far superior to mortal women. Having cultivated for thousands of years, she had reached the level of a Heavenly Immortal. Her skin was like ice and jade, flawless, truly of unparalleled beauty.

She wore a plain long robe, with her hair partly tied back with a tassel hairpin and the rest falling freely behind her. Except for the tassel hairpin, there were no other ornaments on her head.

Her attire was exceedingly simple, yet this simplicity only made her rare beauty and elegance even more striking.

As Feng Anan approached step by step, Emperor Shang was almost transfixed.

When she got close, Feng Anan bowed with a smile, ”The daughter of Marquis Jizhou, Su Hu, greets the Great King.”

Her voice was clear and ethereal, yet it enticed Emperor Shang’s heart.

He could barely contain himself, stepped down from the red steps, and helped Feng Anan up, ”Beauty, please rise.”

Feng Anan took the opportunity to stand and smiled at Emperor Shang, a smile like a sudden flash of spring, astonishing the emperor even more.

”Indeed, the beauty is of heavenly fragrance and unusual elegance.”

Emperor Shang laughed heartily, ”Marquis Jizhou has done a great service by offering his daughter and shall be rewarded.”

Feng Anan promptly bowed, ”Thank you, Great King.”

This reply was coquettish and blended into Emperor Shang’s heart.

”Good, good.”

He patted Feng Anan’s hand, ”Someone, take Su Mei Ren to meet the Queen, let the Queen prepare Shouxian Palace for Su Mei Ren’s stay.”

Feng Anan followed the Palace Attendant into the harem.

She waited outside the Eastern Palace while the Palace Attendant went inside to inform Queen Jiang.

Queen Jiang had been waiting since early morning.

She knew Su Hu’s daughter would enter the palace today and dared not relax.

She feared that if she accidentally annoyed the fox demon, she might die even more miserably.

Hearing that Su Mei Ren was waiting outside, Queen Jiang quickly said, ”Please invite Su Mei Ren in.”

Feng Anan followed the Palace Attendant into the Eastern Palace.

Queen Jiang was both fearful and curious.

She also knew Su Daji was an Evil Seductress, a famous beauty, and had often imagined what she might look like.

She had seen various beauties in Emperor Shang’s harem, but frankly speaking, if Queen Jiang were to assess them, they weren’t that impressive.

These beauties couldn’t compare to the modern-day celebrities in terms of looks.

After all, the conditions were different. This was the Shang Dynasty, terribly behind in everything; resources were severely lacking. Even the daughters of nobles could only manage to eat and dress warmly. Anything more would be exceedingly difficult.

They had no concept of skincare and beauty maintenance.

Their skin condition wasn’t great, their figures weren’t impressive; in modern society, they would at most be considered pretty.

Thinking of this, Queen Jiang estimated that Su Daji might be slightly prettier than the palace women, but nothing extraordinary.

Yet, when Feng Anan stepped into the Eastern Palace, Queen Jiang was utterly stunned.

This...

She was simply too beautiful, so beautiful that Queen Jiang didn’t know how to describe it. It was like, well, like modern celebrities with beauty filters and enhancements, only better.

The main thing was that Feng Anan’s temperament appeared aloof, yet subtly revealed an indescribable allure. At first sight, one simply felt she was fantastic in every way, wanting to cherish and pamper her, unwilling to mistreat her in the slightest.

Queen Jiang thought, this was a flawless beauty without any angles, no wonder she could bring calamity upon the nation, the name of Evil Concubine truly was well-deserved.

As Feng Anan approached, Queen Jiang noticed her skin and grew even more envious and resentful.

This skin was amazing! Not only was it white and radiant, but it also had no visible pores, like a peeled egg.

”Su Hu’s daughter greets Queen Empress,”

Feng Anan approached and paid her respects.

Queen Jiang dared not let her bow, hurriedly reached out to help her up, ”No need for formality, now that you’re in the palace, we are sisters; please, sister, take a seat quickly.”

Feng Anan gave a gentle smile, ”Thank you, Empress.”

She sat gracefully, smiling at Queen Jiang in a flattering manner, ”Before I came, my mother told me about the Empress’s virtues. She said if I have any matters, I can seek the Empress’s help, and if I’m uncertain, I can come to you for advice. If I do anything wrong in the future, please point it out to me.”

Queen Jiang nodded.

Feng Anan lowered her head with tears dripping, ”Separated from my parents and family, coming alone to the palace fills me with apprehension. Now, seeing the Empress, I feel at ease. Since you say we are sisters, I recognize you as my elder sister. Please, if you have any tasks, command me in the future.”

Her words were truly pleasing.

Even knowing this demon was ruthless, looking at the beauty in tears, Queen Jiang couldn’t muster fear.

She remained alert, constantly reminding herself to stay vigilant and not relax for a moment, as this was a fox demon, after all.

”Sister, don’t be afraid. The Great King is very kind, and the palace sisters are amiable. As you are here, consider this your home, and find sisters to talk to when you are free.”

Feng Anan nodded, ”Thank you for the Empress’s guidance.”

After speaking, she had the Attendant present the gifts she brought to Queen Jiang.

Moments later, a Palace Attendant returned to say Shouxian Palace was ready.

Only then did Feng Anan take her leave.

Arriving at Shouxian Palace, Feng Anan dismissed the Palace Attendants. Lying on the couch with a smile on her lips, she whispered to a small jade pipa in her sleeve, ”Sister, did you notice anything strange about Queen Jiang?”
