Chapter 272: Gloat

Wei Zi Xin grunted: “My eldest sister will be the Empress soon, you dare make me unhappy, I’ll have my elder sister chop off your head.”

”Sure enough, you have a strong background,” Ning Meng Yao ridiculed, she really wished to ask Xiao Qi Feng what his view on this was.

With such a younger sister, how good would the elder sister be?

”Since when did the Right Minister’s Residence become so arrogant, why am I not aware of it?” A cold voice sounded from the door.

That familiar voice caused Ning Meng Yao to curve her lips: “Xiao Qi Tian, what are you doing here?”

”I was helping my Brother with something and was just about to return, I happened to see you when I was passing by, so I came in to take a look. Why isn’t Tian Chang with you?” Xiao Qi Tian frowned and asked as he walked to Ning Meng Yao’s side.

”He is very busy, there is no issue for me to come out on my own either, but no matter where I go, I end up encountering such wonderful people, I really did not check the almanac when I left the house,” Ning Meng Yao said with a helpless expression as she waved her hands.

Xiao Qi Tian glared coldly at Wei Zi Xin: “Wei Zi Xin, you are really impressive, even I cannot simply chop off a person’s head, who exactly do you think you are? Are you placing yourself above me?”

He originally disagreed with his Imperial Brother marrying someone from Wei Family, and now he felt even more upset with this incident.

”Qi...... Prince Qi...... I...... I...... That’s not...... What I meant,” Wei Zi Xin was completely stunned the moment she saw Xiao Qi Tian, she was unable to understand why the ordinary-looking woman in front of her would be acquainted with the indifferent Xiao Qi Tian, but not only did they know each other, it seemed as though the both of them have a good relationship.

Xiao Qi Tian let out a harrumph and ignored her, he turned his head to look at Ning Meng Yao: “Meng Yao, let’s go, Tian Chang should have already returned home and is waiting for you.”

As soon as she heard Qiao Tian Chang had returned, Ning Meng Yao naturally did not continue to linger, she ignored Wei Zi Xin and left with Xiao Qi Tian.

On the way back, Ning Meng Yao saw Xiao Qi Tian frowning, she did not know what he was thinking about, which piqued her curiosity: “What are you thinking about?”

”I want to persuade my Imperial Brother not to marry that woman from Wei Family,” Xiao Qi Tian said resolutely with a frown, he was really dissatisfied with this matter.

”You can go talk to him, with such a younger sister, I’m afraid how the elder sister would be. If she becomes the Empress, his days in the future would be really interesting,” Ning Meng Yao teased with a faint smile.

Xiao Qi Tian rolled his eyes at Ning Meng Yao, he then pressed his forehead: “Don’t rejoice in other people’s misfortune.”

”Did I?” Ning Meng Yao made an innocent expression.

Xiao Qi Tian directly headed back to the Imperial Palace after sending her back to the General’s Residence.

”Brother, it’s best if you do not marry that woman from Right Senior Minister’s Residence, she can be an Imperial Consort, but must absolutely not be the Empress,” This was the first time Xiao Qi Tian had used such a solemn expression to bring up a matter to Xiao Qi Feng.

Xiao Qi Feng raised his brows: “Why so?”

With a calm and collected expression, he explained the matters that had happened on the streets. Xiao Qi Feng’s eyes narrowed: “It seems that Wei Family is really getting ahead of themselves.”

”Then we’ll do what you say. While choosing an Imperial Consort during the Mid-Autumn banquet, we’ll reselect another Empress,” Xiao Qi Feng naturally understood his younger brother, for him to say such words, it proved that the members of the Wei Family had disgusted him to the extreme.

Xiao Qi Tian nodded: “I think Brother can ask Ning Meng Yao help you look around as well, her judgement would definitely not be wrong,” As someone who could find so many helpers, she was definitely not an ordinary person.

Xiao Qi Feng thought about it and felt Xiao Qi Tian’s words made sense: “Alright, help this Brother of yours to inform Meng Yao to help be on the lookout when the time comes, I still have matters to attend to over here and can’t get away from it,” Xiao Qi Feng looked at the huge pile of documents on his table and felt helpless.

Xiao Qi Tian acknowledged him: “En, be at ease Brother, I know what to do. But please do not overwork yourself, let the people down below handle it if they are able to do it, they’re not here simply to eat and not pay for it, why are you the only one doing everything?” Xiao Qi Tian had long since felt dissatisfied regarding this matter.

Xiao Qi Feng looked at the Xiao Qi Tian with eyes packed with emotions, he felt comfortable with Xiao Qi Tian’s concern over him: “Brother knows how to divide and distribute tasks, don’t worry.”
