Chapter 493 I didn’t teach her well
” Ap..apologise?” The head of the Wang family was stunned, Lord Fei was apologising to him? But he didn’t have the guts to accept such a heavy apology! Lord Fei was the imperial uncle of the Emperor, every official in the country knew that Lord Fei represented the Emperor. Lord Fei apologising to him was equivalent to the Emperor apologising to him, he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to carry the weight of this apology!Lord Wang wiped the sweat that was forming on his forehead, his heart was beating wildly and even the colour on his face changed, he looked down at the gifts that Lord Fei has brought with him and suddenly felt like a sword was hanging on his neck … who .. who did he offend today? Lord Wang tried to think about it very carefully but as far as he could remember he stayed at home today and stayed in his study for the rest of the morning, he hasn’t even gone out so how can he offend someone? It was unlikely that Lord Fei came to find trouble with him today then who was it… who was the idiot who offended this great Buddha?
Who in his family was stupid enough to do something like this?
He exchanged a look with his mother who has the same confusion mirroring on her face as on his face, seeing that it wasn’t his mother. Lord Wang forced himself to calm down and looked at Lord Fei who was sitting in front of him with a smile that was no different than him sucking up to Lord Fei, ” My lord, I am afraid that I don’t understand… you are the-“
” Ahem”
He wanted to say the title with which Lord Fei was known but then Lord Fei loudly cleared his throat interrupting him, Lord wang was shocked silly, he didn’t know why Lord Fei stopped him from saying his title but then he understand… his gaze unconsciously flickered towards the five men who came with Lord Fei, Lord Wang might be a man of great arrogance but he had the capability for being so arrogant after all his wisdom was great enough to once act as the strategist alongside the aides of Lord Fei, he wasn’t stupid and immediately understood that Lord Fei was hiding his title from the five men who were standing beside him, when he realised that the esteemed Lord Fei was actually being so considerate and careful in front of these five men, his eyes instantly sharpened strangely.
Lord Wang took a calming breath hoping that no one in his family committed any kind of felony that might have created this mess, his son was currently at the most crucial period of being accepted as one of the aides of the Emperor if they offended Lord Fei, not only will his son’s prospects will be harmed, the entire Wang family have to pack their bags and return to the land of their ancestors. ” Ah, I meant that you a first rank official…this apology I believe that I can’t bear it. If this one has made any mistakes then I will formally apologise to you, my lord.”
Lord Fei looked at Lord Wang who was solemnly bowing down to him and laughed humorously, when he arrived at the Dong Tong town he didn’t bother to manage these officials who were causing havoc because he has long retired instead of finding trouble with these annoying pests, he just wanted to leave a quiet life with his wife. Though once in a while he would send a report to his nephew condemning the officials who behaved way over the top as for officials like lord Wang as long as they didn’t act too brazenly he was willing to ignore their small offences because if he did that then he would have been called petty and his nephew was busy enough dealing with the matters of the country, why will he trouble his nephew by sending him reports about such small things but to think his kindness would lead Su Wan to be locked in the prison, there was no way he would be able to ignore this matter anymore!
He grimly looked at Lord Wang and spoke, ” My dear lord Wang, there is no need for you to trouble yourself so much. Like I said that it was our fault so, of course, we have to come here and apologise.” His smile was pleasant and so was his voice, Lord Fei didn’t show a single ounce of the anger that was currently brewing inside him as he addressed Lord Wang ” You see I just adopted a granddaughter, she is a lovely little girl but she is a bit naughty … and because I haven’t taught her properly, she somehow offended your daughter. Don’t I need to apologise for that?”
Lord Wang’s heart sank. How could he not understand what Lord Fei was saying? He did know that Lord Fei has recently adopted a granddaughter, the rumours were all over the place, he was even thinking about how to get his daughter to befriend that girl who was lucky enough to be adopted by Lord Fei but that stupid girl! She actually went ahead and offended that precious granddaughter of Lord Fei!
Lord Fei was apologising for not teaching his granddaughter properly? If he can’t teach someone properly then who can?
Lord Wang secretly took a deep breath as he cursed his stupid daughter for creating unnecessary trouble for him. He knelt on the floor and the matriarch of the Wang family followed suit.” Lo…Lord, I failed to teach my daughter properly, please show mercy on us, I will definitely deal with her once she returns home.”
Lord Fei almost snorted but then under the glare of his aide Wu Dei who warned him not to speak nonsense when they were at fault too. He sighed and then looked at Lord Wang and the Wang family matriarch before gently smiling as he said ” What are you saying Lord Wang, didn’t you hear? I just said that the fault lies with my granddaughter why are you apologising like this? Like I said I am here to apologise for nothing more and nothing less.”
Lord Wang and matriarch Wang who knew that these words were nothing but empty. “…” >.< only ghosts will believe you!
