Chapter 55 – Warning The Evil Prince and his Precious Wife The Sly Lady (2/2)

The time when Murong Yue was still present in the Zhen Manor, she was very powerful and intelligent. Not many could stand a chance against her. Sheng, who also belonged to the Zhen Manor was also a brilliant woman. Naturally, the daughters of both were also smart.

A while ago, he didn’t really like Murong Xue all that much and did not bother to make contact with her. Because of that, he never knew how intelligent she was and did not care if she was.

But after returning victorious from his last war, he had met her many times. Slowly, he began to realized that she was indeed a very clever woman. Every time when they met, she would always bring out some sort of ‘surprise’ that he did not expect……

With her by his side, he will never have mundane days!

Ye Yi Chen’s mouth curled into a smile.

A long shadow was approaching. This person had an attractive face and a warm smile. It was theFourth Prince.

Ye Yichen’s eyes gleamed, “Tian Qi!” What was he doing here?

“Yichen, Princess Qin, it seems that you’re here too! I’m here looking Miss Murong.” Ye Tian Qi smiled. His presence was like the breeze during spring. He politely walked past Ye Yichen and Qin Yuyuan.

“My father and the ministers have heard about your flood management plan. Well done Miss Murong, you are indeed clever!”

“Thank you Fourth Prince!” Murong Xue smiled humbly.

“When I was going out, I met the prime minister and the duke, they had asked me to enquire whether if you were going to hold a banquet.”

“A banquet?” Murong Xue jolted.

She realised that during this era, when the rich had encountered a fortunate and joyous event, they would organise a banquet in their homes. However, in her palace, the host’s mother, Murong Yue had passed on early, Murong Jian, the host’s uncle, was working far away and Murong Rou, the host’s aunt, had already been engaged to someone else long ago. Only Madam Du, the host’s step grandmother, Murong Ye and herself remained in this palace. Which was why, other than Madam Du’s birthday banquet, the Zhen manor normally remained quiet and banquets were a rare thing.

“I fear that it would be inappropriate to hold a banquet..”

Normally when a banquet was held, adults from rich and noble families would be invited. But her brother and herself weren’t even nearly the same age as them, which made it hard to share a common topic or interest with the guests….

Ye Tian Qi saw Murong Xue’s face became downcast and thought that she was thinking about how her parents had passed on early. He then deliberately coughed to make things less awkward.

“Holding a large banquet is indeed inappropriate. However, you could hold a small dinner and invite the young princes and other young rich people to celebrate!”

The guests he mentioned were closer in age to Murong Xue and Murong Ye, thus, they might have some common interests.

Murong Xue blinked, “I’m afraid I might have to postpone the dinner, I’m going out of the city to attend to some errands…”

Yu Mountain’s Di Yang grass had already ripened and she needed to hurry to harvest them.

“Never to worry, the people in the prime minister’s and the duke’s homes aren’t in a hurry. You can hold the dinner whenever you are free. And it’s alright if you don’t wish to hold one even! However, whenever the prime minister or the duke sends an invitation, be sure to attend it………”

Ye Tian Qi’s gentle suggestion bore into the ears of all in the scene. Madam Du’s eyelids started to tremble, an uncomfortable feeling started to boil inside of her….
