Lin Hu Xi was around 11 years old, but he had a proud look357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywZ6jsuPC9
on his face as he greeted his aunt. Smiling yet not smiling, he performed his357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWy8NMZcwr
greetings flawlessly.
Feng Ning watched everything from the back, amused by their357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEjAZxk36Z
performances, but she said nothing. She had no place to even interfere and357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3oHi4PysL
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 more357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7EhMm3fEN
than someone who was staying at the shadow and being unnoticed. In the end, all357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmEZ7CdAiZ
that she could do was to watch as others interacted and showed off their357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPzKri6NWs
skills.
‘I like this silence, though.’
With no one bothering her, Feng Ning was watching her mother357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeaGZp7n0c
battle of words with the other Imperial Family members. She took the sip of the357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuv12tSPgq
tea while noticing that Feng Quan was trying hard to maintain her smile.
‘Did she notice someone?’ Feng Ning glanced to the side357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma56PN9ou4
naturally and noticed a group of people were staying not far from them. Being357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VXtEUI7Zx
able to sit in location near the Imperial Family only showed that their357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡju4n4jcr7i
statuses were not bad.
Unfortunately, Feng Ning didn’t know everyone.
They would only introduce themselves later on when they357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZvfWHelD5
reached that segment.
“His Majesty, Her Majesty, and Her Highness Princess Mei Ni357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGoyCfr4di
had arrived.”
The moment the eunuch announced the Emperor’s arrival,357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcnRKPgRYa
everyone stood up from their chairs and kowtowed to the ground. Feng Ning357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBxPuXxXTR
followed their movement and noticed that the atmosphere turned tense almost357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHwNCQAIew
immediately. The stifling atmosphere reminded her of her school days when the357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FUrPi3czj
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 the357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9JWsJgUxg
same time, it carried hint of bloodlust that he didn’t even bother to conceal.357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NvNkUXp14
Some children were trembling and stifling their tears from the moment the357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO4SRvAnkf
Emperor had arrived.
Feng Ning took a deep breath as she raised her head for a357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1z96m0Ns1
brief moment before lowering her head once more. She only took a brief look,357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg33w5lqF04
but she had seen the Emperor’s face. He didn’t look that much different357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYcXVBvY2Y
compared to her mother, around 60 to 70 percent similar. However, his eyes were357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyRqs1w2B7
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 was357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiMNnLGYaY
meeting with someone who glanced at everyone here as if they owed billions to357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKZSCPcN6E
him. It was not a nice feeling.
As for the Empress… she was a beautiful woman. However, she357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyChORg3Kso
never gave birth to any child for the Emperor and was probably nothing more357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSBNmyg7vT
than a figurehead. However, the air that she exuded still gave out the word357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3A3Xr69BD
authority.
Princess Lin Mei Ni was the only surviving younger357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89zSRe2ojz
generation.
As for why Feng Ning called her that way, it was obviously357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUiz1yd04W
because she had heard that there were countless imperial concubines who had357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNCJ76LCVj
died in the past decade. Not to mention, there were also various attacks357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hrzwoOls2
directed at the children who were born for the Emperor that many of them didn’t357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuToxtNoma
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. That357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmKL0ppX0N
was quite an unfortunate luck for him.
Cruel and cold blooded. That was the only description that357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ywRyIZpAp
Feng Ning could give when she saw the Emperor.
“Today marks New Year and this time there are a lot of357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4HxWJsext
vassal kingdoms have sent their regards. This banquet is also to welcome them357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyD801fsAt
all.”
Ah right…
Lin Tang Kingdom was a powerful kingdom that also ‘claimed’357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwF4VGkkfFj
many areas as their vassal. Those who didn’t want to obey were destroyed one by357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltGUb7tZUv
one until this time, where everyone was basically forced to follow them. With357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtUQ2BXbQR
the power that Lin Tang Kingdom’s hold, Feng Ning had no doubt that this357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvzcE9uiGC
kingdom would be heading towards its peak soon.
Of course, that was only if the Emperor could hold onto his357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTCRH5ENHW
chair.
‘What in the world am I thinking….’
Feng Ning lowered her head and focused on eating the food in357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rHWl6slwA
front of her. For some reasons, she couldn’t help but think that the peace she357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZA2yarYHIX
had right now was nothing more than being superficial. It was a fragile peace357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjQtUq64Uz
that could be broken so easily.
“Imperial Cousins.”
Hearing the cheerful voice, Feng Ning’s body stiffened357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9PtDfqKwz
slightly. She raised her head and made sure that she put on a blank look as she357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbSf1Lyh0r
looked at Princess Mei Ni who came towards them.
Lin Mei Ni.
The only child of the current Emperor who survived. It was357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGH1WuRzrEc
needless to say that her mother was a favored concubine and that she managed to357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvmDHk0gep
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 being357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53pu6m7XTQ
only 7 years old. Nevertheless, Feng Ning recognized the gaze that Lin Mei Ni357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBDQwUawdZ
held when she was looking in their direction that appeared for a split second.
Disgust.
Feng Ning pushed her feelings down and showed a foolish357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQy2CBZ3ToM
smile. “Imperial Cousin Mei Ni.”
Beside her, Feng Quan and Feng Zhu Liu also suppressed their357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlmeINAf46
expression as they greeted Lin Mei Ni politely.
“This is the first time we meet with each other. Imperial357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOKDZozUJZ
Mother taught me that I should be polite, so I have prepared presents for all357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5WDCBQbko
of you,” Lin Mei Ni said with sweet tone.
Feng Ning was utterly speechless. Did this Lin Mei Ni think357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm0GioXAbt
of herself as an elder? The way she conducted herself would make her look as if357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgj1N8ABgA
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 prepare357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu0XU3VMSJ
anything for you.” Feng Ning looked troubled.
Feng Quan’s eyes burned with fury while Feng Zhi Liu was357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgg5eR9hmK
more interested in what kind of present they were.
Lin Mei Ni smiled, her expression still looked like that of357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcDofmpHSO
a sweet girl. “It’s fine. I’m the one who want to stay close with all of you.357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7FGTxEcDT
Do you perhaps dislike the presents?”
“Not at all, Imperial Cousin.” Feng Quan forced a smile.357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoykgUeBEp
However, she was older than Lin Mei Ni, so how could she not understand the357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpkSyh69PU
intention of her cousin? It was as if she was telling them that she would357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvglqRji6G
always be above them in terms of seniority.
She was infuriated, but she couldn’t possibly lash out in357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV32rLoAFUo
this kind of place.
Feng Ning and Feng Zhu Liu also expressed that they didn’t357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uCe304CKq
mind as they accepted the present.
“That’s good.” Lin Mei Ni curtsied and didn’t stay there any357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlmUMtQg0H
longer before returning to her parents. It was time for them to watch the357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXs1GVyMJ1R
performance and to make sure that they all enjoyed the night.
Feng Quan snorted as her grip tightened. It was clear that357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU1LPUL6Vi
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 as357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaqc3beO3R
smiled faintly. In the past, she often watched historical drama and always felt357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9vMS07BXd
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 like357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzpSPFQf6D
that. But if they wanted to survive, they had no other choice but to grow up to357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYTpGYm8WZ
be the scheming ones.
If they failed, they would die.
As simple as that.
‘The most glorious place is also the dirtiest place.’
