Lin Hu Xi was around 11 years old, but he had a proud look450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzYCfpwyuH
on his face as he greeted his aunt. Smiling yet not smiling, he performed his450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2ZJ8wQfDL
greetings flawlessly.
Feng Ning watched everything from the back, amused by their450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTe1z4zwR1
performances, but she said nothing. She had no place to even interfere and450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBp2nPLDj7
joined in their conversation. After all, she was nothing more than an outsider.
In this party, she was nothing more than a spectator.
Spectator.
It might sound like a good word, but it was nothing more450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NUQA7XRQT
than someone who was staying at the shadow and being unnoticed. In the end, all450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9dgqHiKG7
that she could do was to watch as others interacted and showed off their450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa559g9404
skills.
‘I like this silence, though.’
With no one bothering her, Feng Ning was watching her mother450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8oTSN2lcy
battle of words with the other Imperial Family members. She took the sip of the450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwVdNVC6lT
tea while noticing that Feng Quan was trying hard to maintain her smile.
‘Did she notice someone?’ Feng Ning glanced to the side450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOFhQuUAS2
naturally and noticed a group of people were staying not far from them. Being450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkNakHkXtY
able to sit in location near the Imperial Family only showed that their450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEscNZ0N5B
statuses were not bad.
Unfortunately, Feng Ning didn’t know everyone.
They would only introduce themselves later on when they450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMa3K7ZCc2
reached that segment.
“His Majesty, Her Majesty, and Her Highness Princess Mei Ni450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNkRiy4646
had arrived.”
The moment the eunuch announced the Emperor’s arrival,450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlO5P92Olq
everyone stood up from their chairs and kowtowed to the ground. Feng Ning450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidxLif4Wtx
followed their movement and noticed that the atmosphere turned tense almost450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEdPgm121g
immediately. The stifling atmosphere reminded her of her school days when the450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKZKhz7avi
principal suddenly appeared.
It was fear and respect.
“We greets Your Majesty, long life Your Majesty.”
“Rise.”
The Emperor’s voice was low and pleasant to the ear. At the450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbl0su5S78
same time, it carried hint of bloodlust that he didn’t even bother to conceal.450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOpNeo2XBV
Some children were trembling and stifling their tears from the moment the450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQs8N33WcW
Emperor had arrived.
Feng Ning took a deep breath as she raised her head for a450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFtPv1kdz4
brief moment before lowering her head once more. She only took a brief look,450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMavEbnYkZv
but she had seen the Emperor’s face. He didn’t look that much different450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0etwLLkIu4
compared to her mother, around 60 to 70 percent similar. However, his eyes were450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0awUZPOIY
exceedingly cold that Feng Ning didn’t even want to look at him anymore.
Just that brief moment had made Feng Ning felt as if she was450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73DaRXC2VD
meeting with someone who glanced at everyone here as if they owed billions to450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq2ONAjzVw
him. It was not a nice feeling.
As for the Empress… she was a beautiful woman. However, she450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw79bad73ux
never gave birth to any child for the Emperor and was probably nothing more450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYljixbxltj
than a figurehead. However, the air that she exuded still gave out the word450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt39XPQvTq
authority.
Princess Lin Mei Ni was the only surviving younger450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQW4kL5sx6R
generation.
As for why Feng Ning called her that way, it was obviously450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXno9a524g
because she had heard that there were countless imperial concubines who had450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKdFpOqqJj
died in the past decade. Not to mention, there were also various attacks450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIVziDMS4a
directed at the children who were born for the Emperor that many of them didn’t450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhxGVYbZrl
survive even for a month.
It was a brutal battlefield.
And the Emperor did nothing to even stop them.
Probably because not a single one of them was a son. That450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg7j3afyUk
was quite an unfortunate luck for him.
Cruel and cold blooded. That was the only description that450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l9V3icdb1
Feng Ning could give when she saw the Emperor.
“Today marks New Year and this time there are a lot of450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbK4GomlmL
vassal kingdoms have sent their regards. This banquet is also to welcome them450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCBvwaz3dj
all.”
Ah right…
Lin Tang Kingdom was a powerful kingdom that also ‘claimed’450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjySs67oeei
many areas as their vassal. Those who didn’t want to obey were destroyed one by450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0nLxWBp6o
one until this time, where everyone was basically forced to follow them. With450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaL3mJEpsso
the power that Lin Tang Kingdom’s hold, Feng Ning had no doubt that this450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCxjLDqRBw
kingdom would be heading towards its peak soon.
Of course, that was only if the Emperor could hold onto his450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhMAgK0GHO
chair.
‘What in the world am I thinking….’
Feng Ning lowered her head and focused on eating the food in450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZKTmFLubm
front of her. For some reasons, she couldn’t help but think that the peace she450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByhnz8xrm1
had right now was nothing more than being superficial. It was a fragile peace450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QYqiRPLm1
that could be broken so easily.
“Imperial Cousins.”
Hearing the cheerful voice, Feng Ning’s body stiffened450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8dNGSGClW
slightly. She raised her head and made sure that she put on a blank look as she450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1hTAIEJsM
looked at Princess Mei Ni who came towards them.
Lin Mei Ni.
The only child of the current Emperor who survived. It was450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr144cXbKzL
needless to say that her mother was a favored concubine and that she managed to450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREGuvZBTIt
survive this long was not mere luck. She was also a very capable person.
Lin Mei Ni was only a year older than her, making her being450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BHSVlWect
only 7 years old. Nevertheless, Feng Ning recognized the gaze that Lin Mei Ni450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M36qRBFvk
held when she was looking in their direction that appeared for a split second.
Disgust.
Feng Ning pushed her feelings down and showed a foolish450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7rOeSVu2k
smile. “Imperial Cousin Mei Ni.”
Beside her, Feng Quan and Feng Zhu Liu also suppressed their450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobYykjoYyj
expression as they greeted Lin Mei Ni politely.
“This is the first time we meet with each other. Imperial450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5aNqGbaYY
Mother taught me that I should be polite, so I have prepared presents for all450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQfFZISECa
of you,” Lin Mei Ni said with sweet tone.
Feng Ning was utterly speechless. Did this Lin Mei Ni think450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3wvydCUPI
of herself as an elder? The way she conducted herself would make her look as if450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuol4qe7f1h
she was looking down on her and her sisters.
Though, Feng Ning didn’t care that much.
“Your Highness, isn’t it a bit too much? I didn’t prepare450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28HcWBcdCp
anything for you.” Feng Ning looked troubled.
Feng Quan’s eyes burned with fury while Feng Zhi Liu was450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsSjvqgTSd
more interested in what kind of present they were.
Lin Mei Ni smiled, her expression still looked like that of450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqatZL4CxO
a sweet girl. “It’s fine. I’m the one who want to stay close with all of you.450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmZzUgKcit
Do you perhaps dislike the presents?”
“Not at all, Imperial Cousin.” Feng Quan forced a smile.450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1STbKnR204
However, she was older than Lin Mei Ni, so how could she not understand the450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVOW48JLco
intention of her cousin? It was as if she was telling them that she would450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrzeGFxNus
always be above them in terms of seniority.
She was infuriated, but she couldn’t possibly lash out in450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTnRgWrCHa
this kind of place.
Feng Ning and Feng Zhu Liu also expressed that they didn’t450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqMZgB8toE
mind as they accepted the present.
“That’s good.” Lin Mei Ni curtsied and didn’t stay there any450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiPGmDyHrs
longer before returning to her parents. It was time for them to watch the450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxjnnxJY5c
performance and to make sure that they all enjoyed the night.
Feng Quan snorted as her grip tightened. It was clear that450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFMMBFgujN
she was dissatisfied with this arrangement, but what could she possibly do?
She was nothing.
‘So this is a person from the Imperial Family.’
Feng Ning looked at the three people on the highest seat as450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvBL7zBUEW
smiled faintly. In the past, she often watched historical drama and always felt450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkefAiqt3a
awe to these people who could live their lives in this complicated place.
Now that she had seen them.
She understood that it was not like they wanted to be like450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8c307Jy9sH
that. But if they wanted to survive, they had no other choice but to grow up to450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAj799bwQy
be the scheming ones.
If they failed, they would die.
As simple as that.
‘The most glorious place is also the dirtiest place.’
