Chapter 321 - 325

Chapter 321

Xiao Qi Tian ignored the fact that it was the middle of the night. He hurriedly got out of bed and rushed towards the palace to wake the sleeping Xiao Qi Feng.

Xiao Qi Feng, who had just fallen asleep, looked at Xiao Qi Tian and he scolded: "Damn rascal, what is it that is so urgent you’ve to wake me up in the middle of the night?"

Xiao Qi Tian shrunk his neck and said with some fear: "Brother, forget it..... why don’t you go back to sleep? I...... I’ll head back first."

"Hold it right there. Tell me, why did you find me for?" Xiao Qi Feng gritted his teeth as he glared at Xiao Qi Tian. The damn rascal had woken him and thought of just slipping away?

Xiao Qi Tian gulped down the lump in his throat and said in fear: "Brother, don’t get mad after I tell you."

"I throw you to the northern side if you still keep mum."

Xiao Qi Tian shrunk his neck and pondered for a while. He finally gave in and said: "Brother, I forgot to tell you something very important."

"Get straight to the point."

"Meng Yao is our sister, not directly but as a cousin."

Xiao Qi Feng’s anger was immediately extinguished. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Qi Tian: "What do you mean?"

"I knew about this some time ago. There’s a birthmark behind Meng Yao’s ear that only our Xiao Family possess. It’s exactly the same as yours and mine. I planned to tell you that day, but I was suddenly interrupted later on and had forgotten about it," If it wasn’t for the servants telling him Nangong Yan was arriving soon, he would have forgotten about it.

Xiao Qi Feng looked at Xiao Qi Tian with a shocked expression: "Are your words true?"

"Yes, does Brother still remember our aunt?" Xiao Qi Tian suddenly mentioned the Eldest Princess who had been missing for over a dozen years.

Xiao Qi Feng nodded: "I remember, what does it have to do with this?"

"I think that Meng Yao might be her child," Xiao Qi Tian looked at Xiao Qi Feng and said seriously.

"What did you find out?" Xiao Qi Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at his younger brother, his instincts told him that he knew something that he wasn’t aware about.

"I also knew about this not long ago, but our aunt was actually pregnant when she went missing. Furthermore, do you still remember what happened at that time?" Although they were young at that time, it did not prevent them from remembering that incident.

Xiao Qi Feng closed his eyes and recalled what happened that year: "When Imperial Father wanted our aunt to marry the Grand Secretary’s son, our aunt was against it. At that time, the Regent of Ling Empire suddenly came to propose and wanted to marry our aunt. She became joyful instead of strongly refusing......" Xiao Qi Feng spoke while recalling, he then opened his eyes widely: "You mean to say, Meng Yao might be Ling Empire Regent, Nangong Yan, and our aunt’s biological daughter?"

At that time, because their aunt was pregnant and was unwilling to disclose who the father was, that was why their Imperial Father thought of marrying her off.
