Chapter 266 - Why not as the empress?
Chapter 266: Why not as the empress?
When he thought of it, he also grabbed her wrist just now, but she immediately pulled it back.
Jin Shiwei swallowed the melon pancake on his hand and chased after Meng Nan. When he found him, he saw him standing in front of the stairs in a daze. He opened his mouth and asked: “Gongzi, what is wrong with you? Why are you standing there?”
Meng Nan recovered his mind and shook his head. He shook away the jealousy he felt inside his heart, then smiled bitterly: “Nothing, let’s go!”
Jealous? What qualifications does he have to be jealous?
He is a son from the Meng Family, who is rich and powerful, but what about it? He can’t live the way he wants.
He can’t, but Hu Feng can.
He can’t leave his family, he can’t give up his identity, and he can’t stay in this shabby town forever.
His life was fixed since the day he was born, and he has no power to change anything.
Standing at the entrance of the elegant room, Meng Nan tried to hide the distress on his face and make himself look as carefree as usual.
After opening the bead curtain, he saw Hu Feng standing in front of the window and looking at the street downstairs. Bai Zhi was sitting at the table and pouring tea. When she saw him coming in, she hurriedly said: “Come in and sit, this tea is not bad.”
Meng Nan sat down beside her and took the hot tea she handed. He sniffed the aroma in front of her and shook his head slowly: “This tea is not new, it must be bought last year.”
Bai Zhi doesn’t know much things about tea. She used to drink less tea before. And in this world, she also drinks less.
“Really? I don’t quite understand. I can’t smell if it’s good or bad.” She sipped the tea, but she still couldn’t tell if it’s good or bad. She suddenly remembered the tea she had drunk before, she couldn’t tell if it’s good or bad, but it’s very fragrant.
“Meng Nan, have you ever drink jasmine tea?”
Meng Nan shook his head: “I haven’t, but I’ve heard most girls like it. If you want to drink it, I’ll ask someone to get some for you.”
Bai Zhi hurriedly waved her hand: “No, I just ask, I don’t usually drink tea. This kind of thing, I don’t know how to appreciate it.”
Hu Feng looked sideways at Bai Zhi but didn’t say anything. Then, he turned and sat down on the other side of her. He looked at Meng Nan and asked: “Your family must be famous in the capital, right?”
Meng Nan nodded without thinking much: “Well, that’s right.”
Jin Shiwei, who was on the side, hurriedly answered: “What about it? The Meng Family is one of the four largest and influential family in the capital. If it’s not a famous family, then what is it?”
Speaking of the four largest and influential family, suddenly, something flashed inside Hu Feng’s brain. But it was too fast, he failed to capture it.
Bai Zhi was curious and asked: “How famous is it? Is it better than the royal family?”
Jin Shiwei proudly raised chin, he smiled and said: “Although its worse than the royal family, but it is more powerful than any ordinary aristocrats. You might not know this, but gongzhi’s aunt, Consort Shu is the most favored lady of the emperor nowadays.”
Bai Zhi suddenly remembered the news about the emperor she had seen in the town before: “No, if Consort Shu is the most favored lady of the emperor, then why did the emperor title Consort Chu as his empress? And not Consort Shu?”
Bai Zhi doesn’t know if this thing can be asked or not. And why did she suddenly asked this thing?
So without waiting for Jin Shiwei and Meng Nan to reply, Bai Zhi busily said: “You don’t need to answer, I just ask on a whim.”
Meng Nan waved his hand: “It’s nothing, it’s not a big secret. People in the capital don’t know, so it’s okay to talk about it.”
