Chapter 293: Secretive Person

Translator: Vesper

Xiao Qi Feng looked at Ning Meng Yao and the others, then he nodded: “Go ahead.”

Ning Meng Yao brought the others and left. Ling Luo looked at Ning Meng Yao’s leaving figure with madness in his eyes.

Minister Wei who had been observing the whole scene suddenly noticed the Emperor did not seem to be surprised after knowing Ning Meng Yao was the Master of Tong Bao Zhai.

That means the Emperor had known about it long ago. Such a thought caused Minister Wei to feel a chill. If it was so, he needed to be careful.

He turned his head at Wei Zi Xin and said in a serious tone: “I don’t care what you’re thinking, but you better give it a rest. Don’t create trouble for me, otherwise, don’t blame me for not being polite.”

Right now, it was not whether she could do as she pleases. Even Nangong Yue was not as noble as Ning Meng Yao, so where does a mere daughter of a minister stand?

Wei Zi Xin looked at Minister Wei with unwillingness. She wanted to retort, but Wei Ke Xin who was by the side spoke first: “If you wish to drag the whole family through the mud, you can try.”

The prestige of Tong Bao Zhai was not so easily provoked.

Wei Zi Xin had an ugly expression as she looked at Wei Ke Xin: “There’s no need for you to bother with my matters. I think you are being jealous.”

Wei Ke Xin looked at Wei Zi Xin mockingly. There was a smile filled with mockery at the corner of her mouth: “Jealous? What do you have for me to be jealous of?”

Regardless of looks or talent, she was much better than Wei Zi Xin, what was there for her to be jealous of?

Minister Wei did not berate Wei Ke Xin this time. He had looked at Wei Zi Xin and scolded: Your elder sister is right, you better know your place,” He then turned his head towards Madam Wei: “Keep an eye on her, I’ll hold you responsible if anything happens.”

Madam Wei originally agreed to her daughter replacing Ning Meng Yao to be the General’s wife, but right now, there was a tremendous change in Ning Meng Yao’s identity. The two could not be compared.

After sighing, Madam Wei looked at her own daughter and said helplessly: “Zi Xin, just give up.”

”I won’t, I want to marry him, no matter what price must be paid,” Wei Zi Xin was still unwilling to give up, and she even said such words.

Minister Wei’s expression became really ugly in an instant. No matter what price must be paid? That means, she didn’t care even if she destroyed the whole family?

Xiao Qi Feng had been paying attention to everyone’s actions. When he heard the words from Wei Family’s side, the corner of his mouth twitched. This woman really would not give up until she’s dead, she was simply asking for a beating.

Because of the interlude, the banquet did not end in a perfect manner, but Xiao Qi Feng did not mind. He had smiled instead. His gaze landed on Marquis Ling and his family, and there was a mocking smile on his face.

After Ning Meng Yao brought Mei Ruo Lin and the others back to the Great General’s Residence, she waved for the servants to leave before looking at Mei Ruo Lin and Yu Feng: “Elder Sister Mei, Brother-in-law, why did you all appear here today? You even......”

Mei Ruo Lin’s expression became unusually solemn. She looked at Ning Meng Yao: “Yao Yao, be prepared, someone is investigating you. We did that to protect you.”

”Someone is investigating me? Who?” Ning Meng Yao frowned, she had always handled matters in a low profile manner, she didn’t do anything radical, but someone was investigating her right now.

Mei Ruo Lin shook her head: “We do not know who it is yet, what we do know is that person belongs to the Ling Empire,” If it wasn’t because of so, they would not have revealed Ning Meng Yao’s identity.

Although Ning Meng Yao was protected by Qiao Tian Chang right now, they were still not at ease. Only by revealing her identity would they feel reassured.

No matter who it was, they would not dare to simply take action after knowing Ning Meng Yao’s identity. After all, Tong Bao Zhai could not be easily provoked.

Ning Meng Yao nodded: “Ling Empire...... Could it be related to Nangong Che?” She had thought of Nangong Che’s visit.

Mei Ruo Lin snorted with disdain: “No, Nangong Che does not have such authority but there’s no need for you to worry, we noticed that person does not seem to have any bad intentions, but we are currently still unsure about his purpose.”

However, they had rushed over because of that.
