Chapter 57: The Imperial Banquet (Part 2)

  "Master..." Little Feng pushed open the door and entered. When she saw what was in front of her, she was stunned.

  "Hey, little girl, what brings you to me?" Cold Xiao Yao's face revealed a lustful expression as he gazed at the lively and spirited little girl in front of him, completely with a lecherous look.

  "Master?" Little Feng couldn't believe her eyes, how did Master become so different today? It's as if he had changed into a completely different person.

  He fanned himself with the folding fan in his hand, swaying it three times as he walked out of the door. He smiled and said, "Little girl, go tell Wang Fu and the others that I have something to attend to today and won't be able to make it for training. They don't need to wait for me, let them continue with their training."

  "Has Master fallen ill with a high fever?" Little Feng muttered to herself as she gazed at her master's departing back.

  It's not just Xiaofeng who had this idea, but also the people in the western wing of the house. When they saw their young master dressed like this today, they were all stunned, and some were even shocked to drop things from their hands.

  "Girl, it's just pretending to be a young master, why make such a big fuss?!" Leng Xiao Yao muttered to herself as she walked, secretly scolding the original owner of this body. What were you doing, messing around with that young master, now I'm stuck in this awkward situation. If not for seeing that young master's moves in my previous life, I wouldn't have learned this set of actions.

  Leng Xiao Yao walked to the entrance of the Leng manor, only to see Leng Xiao Tian and others already waiting at the gate, as if he was the last one to arrive.

  "Ah!" Leng Xue Tian couldn't help but stare at Leng Xiao Yao's outfit and the way he walked.

  "Good guy, indeed looks like what he is." Leng Xiao Tian thought to himself.

  A beautiful young woman with a sarcastic tone said to Leng Xue Tian, "Father, look at this guy, he actually dared to make you wait here, it's really outrageous."

  "Yes! Grandfather, this is a family banquet, why bring this trash along?" Cold Ao saw that his mother had spoken up and chimed in as well.

  Leng Xiao Tian heard his daughter-in-law and grandson's words, his eyes widened in surprise: "What? You still know it's a family banquet? Doesn't Xiang Yao have the surname Leng?"

  "But Grandfather, he's not from a legitimate background, what qualifications does he have to attend such a grand banquet?" Cold Ao seemed to be at odds with Cold Xiao.

  Leng Xiao Tian directly waved his hand to interrupt Leng Ao's words, with a furious expression: "Shut up, Ao Er, have you forgotten what I said last night? Are you trying to test me?"

  He was taken aback by his grandfather's rebuke and immediately recalled the words his grandfather had spoken in the study the night before. As soon as he thought of that isolated place, he couldn't help but shudder all over, and on the spot, he shut his mouth tight.

  Xiao'er has seen Grandfather, Fu Bo and Father.

  Leng Xiao saw Leng Xiang and bowed, a smile on his face: "Xiao'er, go see your mother."

  Leng Xiao Yao heard her grandfather's words, first stunned, then quickly recovered, and slightly bowed to Liu Yan: "Xiao Yao has seen the great lady."

  "Alas, I can't afford your grand gift, spare me!" Liu Yan casually waved her hand, her eyes filled with a sarcastic smile.

  Leng Xiao saw Liu Yan's expression, his face slightly changed color, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, but this murderous intent flashed by, and he immediately restored the previous young master's appearance.

  Fu Bo saw the flash of murderous intent in Leng Xiao Yao's eyes and let out a slight sigh. He only now understood why his master had begged Young Master to spare him last night in the study.

  "Alright, now that everyone is here, let's set off!" Leng Xiao Tian waved his hand and left the Leng estate with his family.

  "Mother, that little bastard doesn't know what kind of trick he used, but Grandfather is so fond of him. If this continues, I'm afraid Grandfather will even give him the position of family head." Leng Ao got into the carriage and began to pout at his mother.

  Liu Yan heard her youngest son say this, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, with a resentful expression he glared at his husband beside him, then his face changed to a smile, stretching out his hand half-embracing Leng Ao and laughing coldly: "Ao'er, don't worry, as long as mother is here for one day, the position of master of the Leng family will always be your older brother's, no one can take it away, let alone that little bastard."

  "Yan Er, you don't have to make it sound so unpleasant, do you?" Leng Feng said with an embarrassed expression.

  "Am I talking nonsense?" Liu Yan heard her husband's words and immediately glared at him, her face filled with anger as she scolded: "It's all because of you, this useless thing! Your older brother has been away from home for over a decade, and you still can't take the position of head of the household. If things continue like this, I'm afraid that in the future, my two sons and I will have to go out on the streets to beg for food."

  Leng Feng heard his wife's sarcasm and a look of desolation appeared on his face: "Since ancient times, the elder is established but not the younger. Besides, my older brother is indeed much better than me."

  "You're still talking back to me? Why am I so unlucky?! Marrying a useless thing like you." Liu Yan used the three major tactics of women, crying.

  The cold wind was already in a bad mood, and after hearing his wife's crying voice, he became even more agitated. He shouted loudly: "That's enough! If you continue to make trouble, believe me, I'll divorce you!"

  "What?" Liu Yan heard Cold Wind's words and was stunned for a moment. The next instant, Liu Yan pounced on Cold Wind like a mother tiger, baring her teeth and claws, cursing: "You dare to divorce me, Cold Wind? I'm the princess! Today, I'll fight you to the death!"

  "You crazy woman, get out of here." Leng Feng continuously blocked Liu Yan's outstretched hands with his own, a helpless expression on his face.

  From the moment he got off the horse carriage until now, he had not spoken a word. Seeing his parents' appearance, he couldn't help but shout: "Enough, Father, Mother, can't you just be quiet for once?"

  As the voice fell, the carriage suddenly became quiet. Leng Feng's face was filled with anger as he stared at his wife, while Liu Yan had tears in her eyes as she looked at her son.

  The movements of Leng Feng and his family naturally fell into the eyes of Leng Xiang Tian and others in the first horse carriage walking ahead.

  "Haha, what a lively scene!" Leng Xiao Tian's face revealed a bitter smile.

  Leng Xiao Yao heard his grandfather's self-deprecating words, and a faint smile appeared on his face. His complexion was calm, making it impossible for others to discern his thoughts at that moment.

  "Xiao'er, do you still remember Grandfather's request last night?" asked Leng Xiao Tian calmly.

  "Understood." Leng Xiao Yao nodded and continued, "Grandfather, Father, and my two brothers, I can spare their lives, but that woman, I won't let her off."

  "Her?" Leng Xian's face revealed a cold smile, "Her life and death have nothing to do with the Leng family. However, since you're not yet fully grown, let's spare her for now. After all, she is a princess of the imperial family."

  "I understand, thank you Grandfather." Leng Xiao Yao heard Leng Xiao Tian's words and immediately understood the meaning behind them.

  Leng Xiao saw Leng Xiao finish speaking, closed his mouth and didn't speak, so he also closed his eyes to cultivate his spirit. Suddenly the carriage became quiet, with only the sound of the horse cart's wheels creaking.

  After about half an hour, the carriage arrived outside the palace gate and after several complex checks, it stopped at a place that looked like a parking lot.

  "Xiao'er, we'll stop here. From now on, we can only walk. Remember, in the palace, everything has its rules and regulations, unlike at our home." Leng Xuetian reminded Leng Xiao Yao, worried that he didn't know the palace etiquette.

  "Got it, Grandpa."

  "Go, get off." Leng Xiao Tian was the first to get off the horse carriage.

  "Father, grandfather." The Leng family of four also got off the horse carriage and saw Leng Xiao Tian get off the horse carriage, they all went forward and paid their respects.

  Leng Xiao Tian nodded slightly and then waved his hand: "Let's go!"

  "I've seen General Leng, I've seen General Leng." Along the way, as soon as they saw someone from Leng Xiao Tian's side, they would kneel down and pay their respects, showing just how high Leng Xiao Tian's status was in the Tian Long Kingdom.

  "General Leng has arrived, General Leng has arrived..." The loud shouts echoed continuously from the parking lot all the way to the inner courtyard of the imperial palace.

  At this moment, in the imperial garden of the palace, a middle-aged man in his 40s wearing a yellow dragon robe was sitting at a round stone table with a beautiful young woman by his side. Across from them was an elderly man in his 80s. The three were sipping tea together, surrounded by dozens of nobles chatting in small groups. It can be seen that the status of these two people is extremely high. The one wearing the dragon robe was none other than Emperor Liu Yan of Longguo today, and beside him was Empress Cold Moon, also the only daughter of Cold Xiao Tian. And sitting with Liu Yan was Zhao Guodong, a three-generation founding merit minister.

  "Ah, this Cold Freak has arrived so early." Zhao Guotang's face revealed a faint smile as he stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I'll take my leave first to go receive this Cold Freak."

  Liu Yan heard the old man's words, and with a smile on his face, he stood up and said: "Hehe, Zhao Old Chancellor has spoken too much. General Leng has been loyal to Tianlong Kingdom for decades, not to mention how many meritorious deeds he has done for Tianlong Kingdom. Just because he is the father of my queen, I should go and welcome him as a junior."

  Zhao Guotong heard the emperor's words and took a slight step back, saying respectfully: "Then please go first, Your Majesty."

  "Come with me, let's go out and greet them." Liu Yan stretched out his hand to help up the beautiful young woman beside him.

  "Yes, Your Majesty." A happy expression appeared on Leng Yue's face as she grasped Liu Yan's arm and took a step forward.
