"So can you tell me why everyone visited me today?", Min Feng smiled at the people in front of him, he is sitting at the head of a table with Min Ji, Min Su, the Emperor, the princess, Shen Xiao, Shen Wei, Li Xiao Lin, and Shen Mu.
"Patriarch Min, we came here to find out the truth about the Shen family rumors that were spread. Patriarch Shen showed evidence that it was you who spread them, so we came here to hear your side of the story.", The Emperor spoke politely, he hates Shen Wei at the moment, but has no choice but to do it.
"Ohh, that's why. Emperor I think it's true, I may have accidentally made these shameful subjects public.", Min Feng spoke respectfully to the Emperor, but did not miss the chance to irritate Shen Wei.
Hearing 'shameful affairs' Shen Wei lost control, "So you admit it!", He turned to the Emperor, "Emperor, I ask you to punish Min Feng!", Shen Wei shouted to the Emperor surprising everyone.
The Emperor was also not happy, he weved to Shen Wei to sit down and turned to Min Feng, "Why do you say you accidentally did it?"
"Emperor, these matters have come to my attention and I have tried to find out if they were true, in the process may have been reported.", Min Feng continued in the same tone, not caring about Shen Wei.
The Emperor thought for a moment and turned to Shen Wei, "It looks like everything was an accident, I see no reason to punish Min Feng for a small mistake."
Shen Wei got up and knocked on the table, "Little mistake !? He released information about my family causing me various trouble, he must be punished!", Shen Wei lost control and shouted.
The Emperor's expression darkened, he subtly touched the table dividing it in two, "So someone who spreads true information should be punished? And someone who discloses false? Should I kill him?", through the voice gave to realize how angry he is.
Everyone in the room was surprised by the way the Emperor spoke, after all he is known to a kind man who never gets angry. Seeing him so angry made everyone wonder what Shen Wei did to him.
Shen Wei turned to Shen Xiao for help, but Shen Xiao continued to take his tea without caring. He then sat down, "Emperor, I apologize. Recent events are stressing me out a lot.", Shen Wei tried to speak calmly and politely, but his anger could still be perceived.
'As long as the queen remains poisoned he could do nothing against me, if it weren't for those doctors who managed to make the poison unusable for some time, he would not dare treat me like that. I just have to wait, when Shen Mu marries the princess I can control this country. And when I get Shen Ruo and Shen Hua back, no one can challenge me.'
Shen Wei poisoned the queen with a poison which no Empire doctor can treat, he used it to force the marriage. However doctors have found a way to prevent the poison from developing temporarily. This caused the Emperor to turn against Shen Wei, but he still could not do anything drastic against Shen Wei.
Shen Wei urged Min Feng to drink his tea calmly, "Tell me how you got this information." Shen Wei spoke with no respect making Min Feng angry.
"Do you want to be my punching bag again? I can fix it.", Shen Wei shivered in his chair, his body still hurting after the beating Min Feng gave him.
Seeing Shen Wei shiver with fear Shen Xiao rejoiced. In recent weeks he has stopped caring completely about Shen Wei, after doing something as serious as treason he knew that the only end for Shen Wei is death, and he can do nothing. With Shen Hua he could intervene, but against the imperial family, even if he wanted he could do nothing.
"Patriarch Min, could you please tell who gave this information to you.", Li Xiao Lin spoke with some tears starting to come out of her eyes, "That person may know the whereabouts of our two children, we are very concerned about them.", while talking Lu Xiao Lin used a handkerchief to wipe his tears.
Shen Hua had already talked about the life he and Shen Ruo led in the Shen family so Min Feng didn't fall for Li Xiao Lin's trick, 'What a disgusting woman, capable of lying like this without any remorse.', Min Feng decided say, "It was my son who told me about it."
Shen Wei was proud of his wife for making Min feng talk, he turned to Min Su, "So it was you. How did you find that out?", Shen Wei spoke with authority.
"It wasn't me. I didn't know about it until it was released.", Min Su lied, he knew about the events by Shen Hua, but it wasn't him who told Min feng.
Shen Wei was surprised for not being Min Su, he turned to Min Ji, who is known for not being interested in anything but fights, "So it was you!? Tell me now how you found that out.", Min Su spoke in the same tone he addressed Min Su, but a little angrier.
Min Ji was surprised by the accusation, when he was going to defend himself Min Feng interrupted him, "It was not him. It was my third child."
The statement surprised everyone, including Min Ji and Min Su, who did not know that Min Feng adopted Shen Hua.
"Third son? And who would that be? Bring him here.", Shen Wei thought Min Feng was lying, after all it was common knowledge that Min Feng has only two children.
"His name is-", when Min Feng was going to talk someone knocked on the door interrupting him. "Come in." Min Feng knows no one would interrupt him if it wasn't important.
"Sir, sorry for the intrusion, the Third Young Master has returned. I told him about his meeting and he asked if he could come in.", a servant entered, bowed, and spoke to all present.
"Perfect! Ask him in.", Min Feng said drinking the rest of the tea in his chicara, 'This is going to be interesting.'
