Chapter 314: Visit, not Xiao Wangye
Lin Chujiu said with her own mouth that Xiao Tianyao will visit to see Meng Laofuren. When it spread, the whole Meng Family turn upside down. The three Meng brothers were very happy.
No matter what Xiao Tianyao’s real reason was, it can be seen that he valued Lin Chujiu and valued her family.
As for whether it will lead to the emperor’s suspicion, the three Meng brothers have no interest to care. They were not Lin Xiang, Lin Xiang was the one who pushed to marry off his daughter to Xiao Wangye, but then draw a clear line with his relationship with him. Additionally, they have already offended the emperor, they can only harden their heart now and ride Xiao Wangye’s boat until the end.
In order to welcome Xiao Tianyao pretty well, the Meng Family made an early arrangement. When Meng Laofuren heard the news, she showed a smile on her face. She held Lin Chujiu’s hand and smile, but her eyes shone with tears.
“Be good to Xiao Wangye… … he deserves it.” Meng Laofuren couldn’t move her body, she could only barely move her mouth.
“Grandmother rest assured, I will be good with Wangye.” Lin Chujiu thought that she had concealed her emotion pretty well. But it turned out everyone saw it, she was only deceiving herself.
“Behave… scold… muddled.” Meng Laofuren knew that no one had taught Lin Chujiu how to be a good wife. Originally, with Lin Chujiu’s cleverness, she thought she doesn’t need to teach her at all. But this time, when she saw she was angry and hide in the Meng Family. Meng Laofuren found out that Lin Chujiu was a smart child, but doesn’t know how to get along with her husband.
“Grandma, you can rest assured, I understand, I will go back with Wangye tomorrow and talk things with him. I will be a good wife.” Lin Chujiu held Meng Laofuren’s hands and made a promise again and again.
Xiao Tianyao was not a good husband, but she was also not a good wife. She and Xiao Tianyao were both novices in this thing called marriage. It was natural to have a fight, but their relationship will get better and better in the future.
But of course, it was also not impossible for their relationship to get worst and worst. The two of them were after all strangers.

Because of Divine Doctor Mo’s death, Lin Wanting had kept a low profile. Lin Xiang warned her not to go outside and cause trouble. And he let her stay in the Meng Family for the meantime. Lin Wanting didn’t dare to go out, aside from visiting Meng Laofuren, she always stayed inside her room.
However, although she stayed inside her room, she was aware of what was happening outside. She knew Lin Chujiu was staying in the Meng Family. Lin Wanting has been bored for a long time now. So when she heard Xiao Tianyao will visit the Meng Family tomorrow, she was both angry and excited.
She was angry because Xiao Tianyao came for Lin Chujiu, but she was excited because she was looking forward to meeting him.
Lin Wanting doesn’t think that Lin Chujiu has the power to prevent her from meeting Xiao Wangye in the Meng Family. She also believed that, as long as Xiao Wangye sees her kindness and beauty, he will realize that Lin Chujiu was despicable and ugly. Then, he will obviously throw Lin Chujiu like the crown prince.
Her mother’s words were not wrong, Lin Chujiu was born to highlight her beauty. She must seize this opportunity.
Lin Wanting was full of fighting spirits. On the other hand, Xiao Tianyao, who haven’t reached the Meng Family, has been thought by many.

For the Meng Family, Xiao Tianyao’s visit was a big event. The Meng Family’s servant wiped clean the entrance and the hall as early the morning came. Meng Da Furen carefully prepared the food, she was afraid that Xiao Wangye might not eat or drink in their house.
For Xiao Tianyao, going to the Meng Family was nothing but a trivial matter. But out of respect, he still put a get up of a real imperial prince.
Xiao Wangfu’s guardsmen cleared the road and forbid the people from coming. While a yellow imperial sedan with red curtains, who was being carried by 24 men, travelled majestically in a vast road.
The people in the capital was used to seeing Xiao Wangye, riding a black horse with his black suit. They never seen him acted so arrogant like this. So many people, who had seen the scene, couldn’t help but ask: “Who is this imperial prince traveling in the road?”
Aside from an imperial prince, no one can use a big sedan that can accommodate more than eight people.
“Goodness gracious, I’ve never seen twenty-four men carrying a big sedan before. I don’t know whois that prince. I wonder what he is planning to do?”
The people on the street, who was being stopped by Xiao Wangfu’s guardsmen, didn’t stop making discussion.
“There are several imperial princes in the capital, but I’ve never seen them acted so high like this before. Is it an imperial prince from the Northern Country?” Some people boldly made a guess and some denied the fact: “That’s impossible. If that is an imperial prince from the Northern Country, why there was no news?”
“I guess it must be Prince Qinghe. He is an imperial prince from the old imperial clan. He usually pays attention to the imperial family’s rules.”
“I guess it is Prince Jian… …”
The more people discussed things, the more they get excited. No one thinks it was Xiao Wangye. No, some people had thought of it, but they just denied this idea: “It’s impossible to be Xiao Wangye, he has long abandoned the rules of the imperial family.”
Other people on the side of the road continued their discussion. While the other’s followed the sedan on the path it was heading, to determine who was the person inside… …
In the tea house that facing the street, a man wearing purple clothes, couldn’t help but shook his head: “Xiao Wangye recently becomes more and more high profile. I don’t know what he is trying to do.”
The man opposite to him probe and looked outside. Then, he smiled and said: “Xiao Wangye stayed low profile for so many years, but the emperor still considered him a nail in the eyes. It’s only normal to go in high profile right now. Because no matter what he does, the emperor will not let him go.”
These two men were also the same people who were discussing things inside the carriage, on the day Lin Chujiu entered the capital’s gate. The man in purple was the Southern 5th Prince, Nannuo Li, who had sneaked in the capital earlier. The man opposite to him was the eldest son from the Xue Family, Xue Chengwen.
The sedan chair traveled all the way and soon stopped in front of the Meng Family’s gate. When the people saw it, they looked at each other.
“Isn’t that Guo Gongfu? Who’s imperial prince has a connection with them?”
“I don’t know, isn’t it true that after Old Guogong died, their family’s prestige has fallen? How come there is an imperial prince coming to them?”
The East Country values scholars. Although they don’t have the right to discuss politics, they can talk about national affairs in public. The palace court will not care.
The people in the capital hear rumors from time to time to the tea house or wine tables. As for whether it was true or not, the people don’t bother to distinguish. They all like hearing rumors like this.
The sedan steadily parked and the Meng Family received the news. They were waiting at the main entrance, so Meng Shi led the family members to come out and meet Xiao Wangye.
Xiao Tianyao doesn’t want to make things big. As soon as the sedan parked, he came out immediately. However, the atmosphere around him made the onlookers learned who was he.
In fact, when the crowd saw the sedan parked in front of the Meng Family, they made a guess that it must be Xiao Wangye. And when they exactly saw that it was him, the onlooker’s heart skip a beat and they get stiff.
It’s really Xiao Wangye!
Xiao Wangye’s strength is really horrible!
The nearby onlookers one by one lowered their heads when they learned it was Xiao Tianyao. But suddenly, someone shouted: “Long live Xiao Wangye, may you live a thousand more years.” People on both sides of the street shouted again. Their greetings were not in unison, but their momentum was not weak… …
With this shout, it can be seen that Xiao Wangye’s position inside the citizen’s heart was unparalleled!
