Chapter 222 - Feng Yi Xuan Abusing Power for Private Interest (2/2)
But Lan You Nian’s nonchalance didn’t make Qian Jing Han restrain her arrogance but became even more haunghty. Qian Jing Han pointed at Lan You Nian demanding, “What have you done to Young Master An? Give Young Master An back to me!”
Ever since that day she drank tea with Jing Wu An, Qian Jing Han hasn’t seen Jing Wu An since. Even if she wanted to search for him, she wasn’t able to find his whereabouts. She didn’t know Young Master An’s real name, didn’t know where he loved, even didn’t know where he was from. Qian Jing Han felt angry inside. When she saw Lan You Nian, Qian Jing Han knew she’d be able to find Young Master An, for Young Master An was following this woman that day. Could it be that this woman forbid Young Master An from finding her?
Lan You Nian’s eyes narrowed. Picking up the jade bracelet, she used internal force to throw it at Qian Jing Han’s index finger pointing at her. In an instant, Qian Jing Han’s index finger was smashed to the point it drooped over. Lan You Nian was certain Qian Jing Han’s finger was now useless because the bones in the index finger were shattered by her internal force.
“Ah!” Qian Jing Han gaped at her unbearably painful and drooping index finger, hurling insults, “You slut! I will have my father kill you!”
Lan You Nian picked up another jade ruyi put out by the shop owner and threw it at Qian Jing Han, using her internal strength. Qian Jing Han wanted to dodge but wasn’t able to. She could only watch helplessly as the jade ruyi smashed into the side of her face. Qian Jing Han screamed out in pain. The side of her face that was smashed rapidly swelled and her teeth were bloody as she spit out blood. Qian Jing Han couldn’t even able to speak. She could only use her eyes to glare at Lan You Nian.
Lan You Nian didn’t look at Qian Jing Han’s veiled poisonous eyes. This woman must be taken care of, but it couldn’t be done publicly. She definitely won’t keep an enemy, because a woman’s hatred was sometimes even more terrifying than a man’s.
“Lan Wu, pay for all losses of the shop owner!” Lan You Nian said, leaving the jade shop.
Because they’ve pretty much bought all the things they needed, the three of them got back into their carriage to return to their residence. Lan You Nian instructed Lan Qu to put those things away to give it to everyone when they’ve returned to the capital. Though those things weren’t worth a lot of money, they were all Jiangnan’s characteristic knicknacks, as well as her sentiments. She finally has a home.
When Lan You Nian walked into the room, she noticed Feng Yi Xuan was still looking through the booklets. When hew saw Lan You Nian had come back, he cracked a smile, very naturally as he pulled Lan You Nian onto his lap and continued to look through the booklets, but clearly he was in a much better mood.
“Did you have fun shopping?” Feng Yi Xuan held a brush as he read the booklet. He knew he has been too strict with Nian Nian the last few days, but he was really concerned with Nian Nian’s body.
Lan You Nian recalled all the novel objects she bought that day and felt quite happy, so she nodded, but remembering Qian Jing Han, her face wasn’t so pleased, as she pouted and tattletaled to Feng Yi Xuan, “Xuan, someone bullied me!”
If the people on the streets were to know Lan You Nian say this, they would definitely vomit blood. Did you see the bully be beat up into a pig?
Hearing this, Feng Yi Xuan dropped the booklet in his hand, his face ice-cold as he demanded, “Who?”
Lan You Nian felt pleased inside, hearing Feng Yi Xuan’s words. This man always spoiled her. Without concealing anything, Lan You Nian spilled the incident with Qian Jing Han to Feng Yi Xuan, and told Feng Yi Xuan she was going to get rid of Qian Jing Han.
Hearing this, Feng Yi Xuan was enraged. A mere daughter of Jiangnan’s wealthiest man dared to treat his precious Nian Nian like this! Feng Yi Xuan it was about time to sort out the entire Qian family; otherwise, they will really think they are the rulers of Jiangnan.
“Nian Nian, hand this matter to me!” Feng Yi Xuan pecked Lan You Nian’s forehead.
“You’re going to make your move on Qian family?” Lan You Nian asked without surprise. Feng Yi Xuan’s temper, most of the time, were to the extreme. He never left a hidden danger for himself. Most of the time, the basis of striking first gains the advantage is correct.
“Hn.” Feng Yi Xuan never hid any of his matters from Lan You Nian, even if many things were political affairs of the imperial court, “Jiangnan is held in the palm of Qian family. The taxes submitted to court is falsely reported every year. If this continues, Qian family will really become the rulers of these parts. More importantly, since Qian family has offended you, they must pay the price!”
As for Qian family’s situation, Feng Yi Xuan has been aware of it for a while. He’s simply never taken it seriously. Qian family just happened to run into the line of fire. Naturally, Feng Yi Xuan will settle things. He was merely using the imperial court as a hat to vent for Lan You Nian.
“You’re going to use the court’s power?” Lan You Nian grinned. She thought Feng Yi Xuan would use his own forces.
“Hn, finding some stuff for imperial brother to do!” Feng Yi Xuan said indifferently. If Feng Xia Qi was to know, he would vomit blood from anger.
“Tsk tsk, you, as Feng empire’s war god wangye, you really like to abuse your power for personal interest!” Lan You Nian picked up Feng Yi Xuan’s booklet from the table, bored as she flipped through it. Lan You Nian was certain, if it wasn’t because Qian family made her unhappy, Feng Yi Xuan wouldn’t bother with managing Jiangnan’s matters. Most of the time, this man was apathetic as if all the things on this earth were nothing in his eyes, only putting her in his heart.
“Wu…” Feng Yi Xuan allowed Lan You Nian to look at these confidential booklets and said, “For Nian Nian…”
After discussing it with Feng Yi Xuan, Lan You Nian sent Lan Feng to silently kill off Qian Jing Han. It wasn’t that Lan You Nian couldn’t wait but this Qian Jing Han didn’t simply offend her, more important, this Qian Jing Han knew of Jing Wu An. She couldn’t allow Jing Wu An’s life to be filled with an unknown danger.
Two days later, as Feng Yi Xuan and Lan You Nian were about to leave Jiangnan, Jiangnan’s Qian family, because of charges of bribery and controlling the officials, was exposed. Over the years, Qian family has done many lawless things, making the entire Jiangnan’s common people only dare to rage but not to utter it, so when the court was ordered to capture Qian family, the richest family of Jiangnan for an unknown number of years, Qian family, became prisoners in the course of a night, lost the entire Qian family.
