Jiu Ming would not have thought so much before meeting Feng Ruqing.

Empress Nalan was his benefactor. He could never harm her daughter.

“Sir, is it because she cannot know about this?”

“No. It’ll do her no good if she knows too much.” Jiu Ming picked up a cup of tea and looked at Xu Lau. “Xu Lau, continue the investigation on Empress Nalan’s death. I heard that Empress Nalan had delivered a pair of fraternal twins.”

It meant that Feng Ruqing had a younger brother . ¹

There was a shock in Xu Lao’s eyes. “How is that possible? Does His Majesty know about it?”

“He… might not know about it. The power behind this is too strong. Liu Yun Kingdown is too weak to investigate this matter.”

This incident implicated a hidden family. The power of the kingdom was not able to conquer it. Liu Yun Kingdom would never be able to discover what the family wanted to do.

But, Jiu Ming would get involved just for Empress Nalan’s sake. No one could stop him!

Master Nalan was getting better every day after consuming the spirit wine. He was more energetic and there was a glow on his face now. Even his body was getting better.

One fateful day, Master Nalan was playing chess with another person when suddenly, a servant came and informed him nervously, “Master Nalan, something terrible has happened! Something horrible! Master Wei, Master Qin, and Master Jiang have come.”

The Wei, Qin, and Jiang family were three famous families in Liu Yun Kingdom. There was always intermarriage among these families and their interrelationships were good and close. Moreover, Lady Nalan came from the Qin family. So, Master Nalan was not surprised by Master Qin’s arrival.

Master Nalan was surprised as to why the three families came together.

Master Nalan could see the three masters from afar. The three masters laughed loudly when they were walking toward Master Nalan. All that laughing sent a chill down Master Nalan’s spine as he had no clue what the matter was.

Master Nalan was not in doubt for long. Master Qin, Qin Feiyang, moved swiftly toward Master Nalan and patted Master Nalan’s shoulder. Master Qin laughed loudly at the same time.

“Master Nalan, my son-in-law told me that you have gained a good pot of wine not long ago? You’re really something. Our families are close and you do know that I love wine. Why didn’t you treat me to some of it yesterday when I visited?”

Master Nalan’s face reddened at this remark. He swore aloud, “Nalan Zhangqian, I’ll definitely kill you!”

This wicked fellow! Master Nalan had ordered Nalan Zhangqian not to tell a soul about the existence of the spirit wine. Yet, Nalan Zhangqian still told the news to the others. Now that these three masters were here. How could Master Nalan handle this?

Master Nalan would definitely kill anybody who dared to go against him.

“Master Nalan, why are you so stingy?” Qin Feiyang was angry too. “I just want to try one cup of your wine and you want to kill my son-in-law. Is your wine more important than your son? I don’t care. Now that I’m here, I’ll not leave if you do not treat me to some of your good wine.”

Qin Feiyang snorted and sat on the chair. He then looked at Master Nalan.

Master Nalan nearly vomited blood.

That was spirit wine!

He only dared to drink a cup of the spirit wine every day. If these fellows knew about it, they would definitely come and ask for it every day.

In fact, Master Nalan did not think of using other types of wines to fool these people. But, they had all tried his wines. It would not be possible for Master Nalan to go and search for another good pot of wine for them.

Nalan Zhangqian was really his ‘good’ son. Putting his father in a difficult position just to please his father-in-law. Everybody said that the daughters could not be trusted after they had grown up. But, why was Master’s Nalan son like this?
