Chapter 929: Chapter 929: Five Days Later, the Birthday Celebration (Second Update) Chapter 929: Chapter 929: Five Days Later, the Birthday Celebration (Second Update) At this moment,
the gates of the Eastern Palace on Tiansheng Long Street stood wide open, and lights shone brightly.
All those who were on good terms with Yan Xi, and thus allied with His Highness, had rushed over upon hearing the news.
They were very eager to see for themselves, who it was that could stir up the entire Tiansheng Capital with changes as swift as the wind and clouds, all in one night.
The Tang Family, naturally allied with His Highness Yan Xi, was also present.
However, Tang Ling’er kept her head down, silent, and seemed disinterested.
Tang Sheng well understood his daughter’s thoughts, yet at present, he could only sigh deeply in frustration.
Previously fearing that someone might take his daughter away, someone he thought was trying to climb above their station in marrying into the Tang Family, now in the blink of an eye, had become an existence that even he had to look up to.
This feeling caused even Tang Sheng, who was accustomed to the storms of the business world, to sigh deeply and feel regret.
Just then,
there was a low commotion at the door, followed by a multitude of greetings.
“Greetings to Sister Mei!”
“Greetings to Boss Mei!”
Amid these calls of greeting, Mei Xia, the head of Dangui Alley, entered the hall with a smile and a nod, walking gracefully.
Following behind her was Nie Yihan, who had already changed into casual clothes.
Despite her plain clothes and light makeup, she still possessed a stunning beauty.
On seeing these two, Tang Ling’er huffed under her breath, feeling very uncomfortable.
She remembered clearly that after leaving the Tang Family, Xue An went straight to Dangui Alley and even gave a piece of paper to this Nie Yihan.
So, Tang Ling’er instinctively felt antagonism towards Nie Yihan.
Even though she tried her best to hide it,
Nie Yihan still sensed it and couldn’t help but look up.
Then her gaze met with Tang Ling’er, who looked quite unnatural.
Nie Yihan was taken aback at first, but then she smiled.
Despite her frustration, Tang Ling’er, with her good upbringing, gave a slight nod in response as a form of greeting,
before turning her head away, no longer looking in that direction.
Nie Yihan then whispered to Mei Xia, “Sister, who is that woman? Why does she seem so hostile towards me?”
Mei Xia looked up, saw it was Tang Ling’er, and couldn’t help but smile, then said playfully, “Her? She’s the famous Miss of the Tang Family in Jingdu. As to why she harbors ill will towards you … hehe, can you not guess?”
The Miss of the Tang Family!
Hearing this, Nie Yihan suddenly understood, and then she looked intently at Tang Ling’er.
So she is Tang Ling’er.
With the strength of Mei Xia in Tiansheng Capital, it was easy to find out Xue An’s actions after entering Jingdu, and naturally, they discovered his involvement with the Tang Family.
Therefore, Nie Yihan was also in the know.
But looking at Tang Ling’er, it seemed she was taking out her frustration on her, unaware of how much respect yet distance Xue An had for Nie Yihan.
Thinking this, Nie Yihan couldn’t help but show a bitter smile.
At this time,
Yan Xi entered the hall.
“Your Highness!”
“We greet Your Highness!”
Amongst these cries,
Yan Xi showed no reaction but instead stepped aside.
Then a young man made his leisurely entrance.
It was Xue An.
Upon seeing him, Nie Yihan felt her heart nearly leap out of her throat.
And Tang Ling’er simply stared at Xue An, dumbfounded.
Although it had been only a day since they last saw each other,
Tang Ling’er felt that the distance between them had grown even further.
Those who had not seen Xue An before also could not help but stir, and then whispered among themselves.
“My goodness, to be so young?”
“Hiss, could it really be this youth who eradicated the Chang Family overnight?”
Amidst these whispers, Xue An looked up and scanned the crowd.
Within sight.
These people, of high status and significant power, all retreated, not daring to look directly.
Seeing this scene unfold, Nie Yihan’s eyes shimmered with amazement.
Mei Xia, on the other hand, bowed respectfully, her heart also couldn’t help but sigh in awe.
In the face of absolute power, so-called influence and authority were just a joke!
Then, Yan Xi invited Xue An to take the seat of honor, while she willingly took a lower seat to accompany him.
“Young Master, this cup is for you!” said Yan Xi, raising her cup.
Xue An glanced at her, smiling faintly, “Why toast to me?”
Yan Xi sighed, “Because you’ve done something I’ve always wanted to do but couldn’t!”
“I’ve certainly been aware of the Chang Family’s behavior all along, yet I was utterly unable to interfere! And tonight, you took action directly and eradicated this malignancy; naturally, I owe you a toast.”
As she spoke, Yan Xi drained her cup in one gulp.
Xue An looked at her with a sardonic smile, “You are, after all, His Highness and yet you can’t handle a minor Chang Family?”
Upon hearing this, Yan Xi gave a wry smile, “Young Master, there is much you do not know. My position as His Highness is… incredibly complicated indeed!”
With this, Yan Xi briefly recounted her personal situation.
It turned out that in the reign of Tiansheng, the aged Emperor had appointed Yan Xi, his eldest son, as the Crown Prince.
Yet because Yan Xi was not born of the Empress, she had always obstructed him and tried every conceivable method to support her own son, the Eighth Prince Yan Peng, aiming to establish him as the heir.
As time went on, the reigning Emperor began to harbor doubts and became increasingly biased.
Yan Xi’s situation thus grew ever more perilous.
Even now, he was thwarted at every turn by his own younger brother.
After finishing, there was a moment of silence in the hall.
Those aligned with Yan Xi naturally understood the sensation well.
But Xue An acted as if he hadn’t heard a thing, continuing to drink his wine with his head down.
It wasn’t until quite a while later that he set his wine cup on the table and let out a bored yawn.
“Is it another one of those tedious power struggles? I’m so tired of listening to them!”
Having witnessed far too many such plots over the course of more than three thousand years, Xue An found no interest in them whatsoever.
Yan Xi, upon hearing this, was momentarily stunned, then gave a bitter laugh, “Young Master is right. I also find it boring, but I’m cornered by relentless pressure, with nowhere left to retreat.”
“Oh? Why do you say that?”
At that moment, Yan Xi looked around the room and with a wave of her hand,
many people began to leave.
And when Tang Family and Mei Xia were also about to leave,
Yan Xi declared in a deep voice, “Entrepeneur Mei, Family Head Tang, you stay!”
Very soon,
only a few of them were left in the room.
Then Yan Xi stood up, bowed deeply and respectfully to Xue An.
“Young Master, save me!”
This sudden grand gesture left Tang Ling’er, Tang Sheng, Mei Xia, and others all taken aback.
However, Xue An showed no reaction, merely watching Yan Xi, who was bowing deeply. After a long while, he said indifferently, “Stand up and speak!”
Yan Xi’s frame shook slightly, a look of joy appeared on her face, and she hurriedly straightened.
“Go on, what’s the matter?”
Yan Xi spoke gravely, “Young Master, what you do not know is that I have reliable information stating that in five days, on the occasion of the Emperor’s birthday, the Eighth Prince Yan Peng, after extensively courting outsiders, intends to move against me!”
Upon these words,
Tang Ling’er, Tang Sheng, Mei Xia, and others all went pale.
Because if this were true, then the Eighth Prince was acting with extraordinary audacity.
Xue An’s gaze flickered with interest as he asked, “Outsiders?”
Yan Xi nodded solemnly, “Yes, and they’re extraordinarily powerful ones at that!”
“Alright, I’ll take care of this,” Xue An declared without hesitation.
“In five days, I will accompany you to see for myself just how powerful these ‘outsiders’ are.”
His swift agreement, when Yan Xi had been prepared to spend some effort to persuade Xue An, surprised her into stupefication.
Then she nodded, overjoyed, saying, “Thank you, Young Master!”
