At the moment Feng Xi was truly depressed, she did not want to have to get engaged with someone just to get out of another engagement. But this did allow her to get a proper backing which she did not have and ruin the plans Jiang Yi and Feng Lan had in store for her.. Feng Xi let out a long sigh as she closed her eyes and muttered to herself. "Why can't I just be left alone to make billions of yuan!"
"Young Miss did you say something?"
"No, Your young miss is just lamenting about her future, do not worry Ru'er." Feng Xi answered Ru'er's question and closed her eyes. She could see her future being very trying indeed.
At the General's Manor, Feng Shun was standing in the main room a little surprised to see Emperor Tian sitting in the main seat. When he first got word that the Emperor had come to visit he did not believe it, but now seeing it with his own eyes he felt that it wasn't real.
"Brother Feng! You have an outstanding daughter!" Emperor praised Feng Shun as soon as Feng Shun walked in.
Feng Shun quickly went in front of Emperor Tian and kowtowed. "A thousand years..."
"Cut that out we are not in court. We are here to propose marriage to your daughter Feng Xi to our son Tian Jin!" Emperor Tian said with a hearty laugh. He seemed to be in a very good mood. Emperor Tian Yating, the fifth to succeed the throne of the Tian Dynasty. He was so ruthless during the succession that he had beheaded all of his siblings, mother, and grandmother, right after his father had died. All Tt make sure no one could oppose his rights to the throne.
All though he was ruthless, he did not rule China with an iron fist. He was fair and benevolent when it came to ruling China and the Crown Prince, Prince Jin was the son he doted on from a very young age. The son he was most proud of. Whatever he wanted he would give. He was worried that Prince Jin would never find a girl he liked after seeing how many were taken out in body bags each year. But now that he had found a woman that he was dead set on chasing, Emperor Tian hurried over to Feng Manor not wasting a second more.
He had even left a meeting with an ambassador from the X Country to come propose marriage. He did not want his family line to end with his precious son! Emperor Tian seemed to have completely forgotten that there were 7 other sons and one daughter as well.
Feng Shun was standing there dumbstruck. 'So quick?' Was the first thought that came to mind. He had just gotten off the phone with Feng Xi no more than twenty minutes ago! Feng Shun was surprised by this but did not care how quick they came, this was his family's good fortune! "Your Majesty, I would gladly accept but as you may know I will still need to cancel the engagement with the Tang family." Feng Shun said respectfully.
"Tang Family? Ahh! Do not worry about them. Since he should be here any minute. We had the Imperial Guard drag him over here so he can hear the words straight from our mouth. This way Brother Feng does not need to worry." Emperor Tian got up out of his seat, walked over to Feng Shun, and patted his shoulder while looking at the Imperial Guards dragging Tang Zhi's father, Tang Shen into the main hall. Tang Shen seemed to have been roughed up a bit because his hair was a mess and his clothes were unkempt.
"Your Majesty! This lowly one is not sure what he has done wrong!" Tang Shen was sweating bullets, he was in the middle of a meeting for an important business deal when all of a sudden the Imperial Guard came rushing into the meeting and dragged him out without even telling him why.
"Oh, good you are here. Tang Shen, I have come to tell you that your son is trying to woo a beauty when he is nothing more than a pig. I would like to know why your son has designs on my future daughter in law?" Emperor Tian's words seemed that they should be straight and to the point but they were also very vague.
Tang Shen was a bit confused as he answered: "Your Majesty, Feng Lan is engaged to one of the princes?"
Feng Shun ears perked up and suddenly felt a bad omen coming on. But it seemed that Emperor Tian knew a lot more than he showed. "Oh? Feng Lan? You mean the girl your son has been fucking this entire time while engaged to Feng Xi?"
Hearing this Tang Shen's facial expression became twisted! He had just blurted out something he should not have! "Your Majesty, I was muddled and said the wrong name is all."
"Oh, wrong name? Then what about these pictures here?" An imperial guard walked forward and placed four pictures on the table, in each one Tang Zhi was lying naked in bed with a naked Feng Lan on top of him. Feng Shun quickly snatched up those pictures looking at them, his eyes full of disbelief. Then he remembered the slip of tongue Feng Lan had before that he punished her for.
Feng Shun's anger rose and now was grateful that Prince Jin had taken a liking to his eldest daughter or she would have suffered greatly! Emperor Tian looked at Feng Shun's expression and breathed a sigh of relief. He normally did not get involved in his people's family affairs but now it concerned him since his Jin'er was involved.
"Brother Feng, We will say this, please keep this little slut away from our son if you want her to keep her life. Doing such things when not even married is not good and goes against the rules we laid down four our Tian dynasty. But since all parents involved are here why don't we do this. Since Jin'er and Xi'er are to be engaged, why don't we sanction another engagement between Feng Lan and Tang Zhi? This works right Tang Shen? Since your son seems to have stolen her purity, already?" Emperor Tian's eyes narrowed and a bit of killing intent flowed out towards Tang Shen.
"Yes! Your Majesty my Tang Family happily welcomes Feng Lan into our family!" Tang Shen was completely covered in cold sweat at this time, he was cursing his son for not keeping it in his pants! Why couldn't he have just fucked a servant!?
"Good! Goood! Since that is the case we will do it like this." Emperor Tian's smile turned cold as he looked at Tang Shen. "Now for punishments. Because your family tried to deceive Brother Feng here, you will need to give half of your companies over to Feng Shun who will hold them for his daughter Feng Xi as reparations for your son's misconduct until she gets old enough to take them over. "
Once he finished his words to the now dead faced Tang Shen he turned to Feng Shun and said: "Your daughter Feng Lan, is really something. She would even go as far as to sleep with her own sister's fiance… We wonder if there is something deeper going on." Emperor Tian leaned over and whispered one word. "Jiang..."
Clapping his hands to lighten the mood, Emperor Tian smiled once again and said: "We will have Jin'er bring the dowry when they return from the Academy. We can not interrupt their studies at this time." He then motioned to a few imperial guards and said: "Take Tang Shen back to where ever it is he came from."
Four Imperial Guards dressed in black suits came forward and grabbed Tang Shen by each limb and carried him out of the General's Manor. Tang Shen had yet to recover from the fact that he had just lost half of his wealth due to his stupid son! He dared not take this out on Feng Xi who was receiving it since she had the Imperial Family's backing, so he could only take it out on Tang Zhi!
"Brother Feng I am sure you have a lot to brood over now. We will not keep you and will take our leave. Just remember what we said here today,"
