Evil Lady: My Hubby is a Traitor - C12

Chapter 12 – Going to The King’s Manor of Ning Xi

“Madam, only you can go.” Steward Gu stood below with difficulty, looking at the woman who was peacefully sitting down and resting with her eyes closed.

“There are so many girls in the Prime Minister’s Residence that I’m worried that I won’t be able to find a person to attend the banquet.” Yun Qianliang opened his eyes and raised his hand to admire the newly painted quintessence core. A touch of pink appeared on his snow-white fingertip, as if a flower had bloomed on it, causing his fingers to be as white as snow.

“The banquet of the The King’s Manor of Ning Xi, this manor is only accessible to the prime minister and you.” Steward Gu was anxious, there was nothing he could do about this master who refused to budge on his own.

Yun Qianliang sat up and looked at Qiu Yue.

Qiu Yue nodded her head, then took out the piece of paper and placed it in front of Steward Gu, “Steward Gu, take a good look, is this piece of paper written by the First Master?”

Steward Gu took over the paper and read it carefully, then replied: “It is indeed the words of the Lord Prime Minister, but why would the Lord Prime Minister owe his wife money? “This …”

“You don’t need to worry about the debts he owes you. You only need to know that the Prime Minister is not paying his debts. If you pay me back today, going to the The King’s Manor of Ning Xi will be a small matter.” Yun Qianliang stood up, ruffled his hair at the sides of his temple, and let the servant tidy up the wrinkles on his clothes, preparing to set off at any time.

“Old servant, let’s go tie the knot for Madam right now.” Steward Gu took the paper and brought Qiu Yue to settle the bill.

Yun Qianliang nodded in satisfaction and stepped out of the Green Pine Academy with graceful steps.

Today was the sixth birthday of King Rupu’s only son, so before Yun Qianliang got married, The King’s Manor of Ning Xi had already sent the invitation to Gu Xiangfu. Since Gu Yicheng had matters to attend to and was not in the palace today, if he did not attend the banquet, he might attract too much discussion.

Although Yun Qianliang did not want to stir up trouble in the backyard, but because she was a grasshopper who was forced to go on board a pirate ship, the honor of her home was already inseparable from her. Even if the Steward Gu did not come, she still had to congratulate him on his behalf.

When Gu Xiangfu’s carriage reached The King’s Manor of Ning Xi, it was already close to the start of the banquet and both sides of the carriage were already filled with carriages.

When a servant came out to help Master take things, he saw Gu Xiangfu’s carriage and couldn’t help but say a few more words.

“Do you think the Yun Family’s eldest daughter will come?” One of the servants asked gloatingly.

“Since the Jin Wang is here, she probably came early. Let’s wait to see a good show.” Another slave girl snickered.

Yun Qianliang stayed in the horse carriage to eat dim sum, she wiped her fingers with a wet handkerchief and drank some tea, then got out of the carriage.

The King’s Manor of Ning Xi’s butler Elder had long noticed that there were no movements from Gu Xiangfu’s carriage, so he did not go forward to disturb them. When the curtain of the carriage moved, he tactfully went forward to welcome them.

“Greetings Madam Gu.” The old butler came forward to greet him.

“Get up.” Yun Qianliang smiled and replied softly.

The two servants who wanted to take their time to admire the Left Premier’s charm saw that it was Yun Qianliang who came out of the horse carriage, their faces turned white, and they actually ignored Yun Qianliang, and quickly left.

Chun Hua handed over the invitation card to the butler of The King’s Manor of Ning Xi and accepted it. She took a cursory glance and respectfully invited the person inside.

The birthday banquet was held in the garden, and the steward had sent a servant to lead the way.

After walking through the long nine curves of the corridor, a Moon Gate appeared in front of them. Dark green Mountain Tiger climbed up the walls, and the craftsmen cut the Mountain Tiger very nicely, as if they had penetrated a layer of outer garment.

Just as Yun Qianliang was raising her head and appreciating the big words written in the middle of the Moon Gate, a lady who seemed to be in her early thirties walked out of the garden. Her skin was white, and her figure was slightly bountiful.

“Greetings, consort.” The leading servant bowed.

“Gu Yun Matriarch greets wangfei.” Yun Qianliang curtsied, just in time.

“Please rise Madam Gu.” Princess Xi came over and personally helped her up, “I was muttering to myself about when Gu Xiang and Madam came here, but I didn’t expect that we would run into each other the moment we appeared.”

“I have something to attend to, so I’m not sure when I can arrive. I might as well come over first, please forgive me, Princess.” Yun Qianliang then explained the reason, and requested for forgiveness.

“Gu Xiang is a busy man, it’s good that he can come, I don’t care when.” The Princess Xi dismissed the servants who were leading the way, and personally brought Yun Qianliang into the flower garden.

The corners of Yun Qianliang’s mouth always had a light smile, as she was well aware of Princess Xi’s good intentions.

The King Rupu was the elder brother of the Tianhui Emperor, but he loved painting. He did not have much influence in the imperial court, in terms of power, he was inferior to Gu Yicheng in the imperial court, and would inevitably think highly of the people of the Gu Xiangfu.

However, how could royalty be mediocre?

As they walked into the flower garden, some people noticed Yun Qianliang’s arrival and quietened down. They all looked at him and started to discuss him softly.

Yun Qianliang’s gaze was indifferent, she did not care about the attention of the outsiders, and calmly followed the footsteps of the Princess Xi into the seats.

“Since Madam Yun has arrived, should Madam Gu go greet her?” The Princess Xi said to one direction.

Yun Qianliang raised her eyebrows, bent her knees and smiled, “Thank you for your understanding, esteemed wangfei.”

After the Princess Xi left, the discussions in the garden grew louder. Seeing that she was the only one who came, they all laughed at her.

Yun Qianliang acted as though she did not hear, and directly led the servant towards the pavilion where Qin family was.

Only after he walked a bit closer, did Yun Qianliang realize that there was more than just the Qin family in the pavilion, with her white lotus Concubinage Sister, and a Jin Wang that she could not avoid in time.

Yun Qianliang’s footsteps paused, and the laughing sounds around him became even more frequent.

“Miss, how about we …” Chun Hua said hesitantly, she wanted to advise people to come back later in order to avoid the pain in her heart.

Yun Qianliang’s eyes flashed. This was the chance to probe out Song Shujin’s assassin, and he had to grab hold of this chance today. Otherwise, if he missed this chance and missed the next time, his life would probably be in danger.

Yun Qianliang stood there deep in thought, but the spectators misunderstood that it was a look filled with deep love, their hearts blooming with a smile.

Yun Qianliang lowered his eyebrows and concealed the calculating look in her beautiful eyes. When he raised her eyes, the light smile on the corner of her mouth deepened, and his eyebrows unconsciously revealed his confidence.

Song Shujin sat in the right, when people were approaching him, he had already noticed them. He frowned, annoyed and frowned, his eyes cold like a poisonous snake.

He had an extremely cold appearance, as if carved from a knife. His straight, handsome, sword-like eyebrows were slanted into the air. His slender, black eyes were sharp, and his thin, pursed lips were lightly pursed.

Under that kind of gaze, even men would feel fear in their hearts and be unable to dodge.

Yun Qianliang acted as though she did not notice it, her eyes wide as she walked into the pavilion with a smile on her face.

“Greetings, Jin Wang Lord.” Yun Qianliang bowed her head in respect.

Song Shujin deliberately made things difficult for them, so he did not make a sound and pretended that he did not see the person.

The people in the garden gradually moved closer, trying to find out what was going on inside the pavilion.
