“Wangye, there is a servant girl from the general’s manor outside to return something,” The steward respectfully stood outside the study room from a place far away and reported. He knew the wangye in the study room’s martial arts is top notch so he could definitely hear it. Moreover, wangye‘s study room was not a place just anyone can get close to.

An Si suddenly appeared with some dissatisfaction with why the steward asked such an unnecessary question. Ming wangfu never admits any woman, let alone it was just a servant girl.Has old-age fogged up the steward’s mind?

“Steward, do you still have to ask the master? It’s just a matter of chasing her away.” Although An Si was impolite to the steward, if you look carefully, you can see the respect for the steward. They have followed master since they were little. The steward has always been taking care of them since childhood.

“An Si ah, do you know who that servant girl belongs to?” The steward deliberately kept him guessing. The face of wrinkles was filled with amusement.

“Who cares whose servant girl she is. In Ming wangfu, if it’s a woman, then she can’t enter,” An Si said, then reconsidered and glanced at the An San in the shadows, “An San can’t be considered a woman!”

An San clenched her fists, prepared to come out to teach An Si a lesson. A voice drifted out from the study, “Let her come in!”

An Si was stupefied. He really couldn’t understand what’s the matter with master. It was obvious to all that master detested women. In the manor, besides the few female cooks in the kitchen, it was all manservants, retainers, and guards. Now, how could a servant girl be allowed to enter the manor?

Before the steward withdrew, he glanced at the confused An Si and kindly reminded, “That is the personal maidservant of general manor’s Miss Lan!” Ever since the steward knew the wangye he had watched grow up finally had a female he liked, he was so excited that for a few nights he couldn’t sleep, continuously crying that Ming wangfu was saved. If the steward didn’t control himself, he was ready to tie Miss Lan up and send her directly onto wangye’s bed. But in the end, hearing that wangye was very fond of this girl, and knew that this Miss Lan was only thirteen years old, suddenly his old face was dismayed. So young, when will there will a little master ah!?

Miss Lan? An Si, within moments, understood. It turns out to be Miss Lan’s people, ai, master must really love Miss Lan.

Under the guidance of the steward, Lan Qu in a cyan long dress walked into the lobby of Ming wangfu. Feng Yi Xuan sat up straight in the lobby. The cold air made Lan Qu unable to breathe for a moment. This Ming wang was really powerful.

“Ming wang,” Lan Qu bent her knees and curtsied. She was unconsciously respectful of Feng Yi Xuan who sat in the lobby. The air around this man carried massacre and iciness. She really didn’t know whether young miss and Ming wang knowing each other was good or bad.

Feng Yi Xuan paid no heed to it. He was apathetic in the first place. The people of Ming wangfu have long been used to it. The steward was afraid it will leave a bad impression on this young lady who then will go back to tell that Miss Lan. Then that would be bad.

“Don’t know what this young lady has come to Ming wangfu for?” The steward stood beside Feng Yi Xuan and said with some degree of benevolence.

Lan Qu put down the zither that she carried on her back and opened the packaged zither’s wrapping, respectfully said, “Young miss said wangye forgot to take away your things, so let this slave bring it over!”

Feng Yi Xuan looked up at the Gentle Water Zither placed on the table, considering Lan Qu’s words. Lan You Nian, the object can be returned, but what about my heart? My heart can’t be returned!

After Lan Qu finished sending things and a curtsy later, she was ready to leave, but at this time, Feng Yi Xuan’s voice sounded. The voice still contained icicles, “An San, detain her!”

An San, within moments, blocked in front of Lan Qu. The corner of her mouth was still full of smiles, “Aiya, so sorry, but I ask this young lady to stay in Ming wangfu for a while longer.” Although An San didn’t understand what master wanted to do, their duty was to obey orders.

“An Si, inform Nian Nian that her maidservant has become sick in Ming wangfu for some unknown reason. Have her come pick her up!” Feng Yi Xuan’s said coldly. In reality, his heart was filled with ferocious anger. Because the result of An Yi’s investigation is, Wu Qing gongzi and Miss Miao Yin are the perfect couple. Miss Miao Yin can come whenever she liked, leave whenever she wanted in Zhen Wei Pavilion, it’s all because of Wu Qing gongzi’s protection. There are even rumored that although Miss Miao Yin doesn’t speak with others, only sings, but it was different for Wu Qing gongzi.

When Feng Yi Xuan heard this, he felt his entire body felt uncomfortable like he was sick. His heart felt suffocated. He knew that rumors were not credible, but he feels that even if it was just linking Nian Nian’s name with other men’s names, it isn’t allowed. Nian Nian can walk freely on the third floor of Zhen Wei Pavilion; it can be seen that she was very familiar with Wu Qing gongzi. Otherwise, all the businesses under Wu Qing Pavilion all belonged to Wu Qing gongzi, how could Nian Nian enter? The more Feng Yi Xuan thought the more uncomfortable he felt. At this time, she actually sent someone to return the zither back, Feng Yi Xuan felt extremely angry.

So, he wants to see her immediately, but since this maidservant was already here, then let Nian Nian come to Ming wangfu. After all, he wanted her to see the place where he lived.

“What is Ming wang’s meaning?” Lan Qu’s respectful expression became cold. Although she was merely a maidservant, however under the influence of her family’s young miss she had her own unyielding character. The steward and others couldn’t help but look at Lan Qu with high regard. Even the maidservant was so cool-headed when encountering trouble, it seems that this Miss Lan teaches with proper methods.

Feng Yi Xuan did not answer, or that’s to say, he has always not had much to say. An San heard master’s instructions and knew that master wanted Miss Lan to come to Ming wangfu. Although the method was quite arbitrary, at least, he made a move. Now she better comfort this maidservant, “This young lady over-thinks. Master has no intention of hurting Miss Lan. Please request this young lady to come with me.”
