Chapter 466 - 342 Stay the Door Open Tonight_2
Hurriedly getting up, she dragged Gu Pengyou along, "Little Sister Gu, let’s go first!"
"Hahaha..."
Watching her escape in haste, Chen Xuan instantly burst into laughter.
Little girl, still daring to cause trouble, doesn’t know how formidable he is!
Then he picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Having Qin Ke take charge of the Three Judicial Departments isn’t bad."
Chen Xuan softly muttered to himself.
...
Lanting Inn.
At this moment, Qin Ying was feeling a bit of a headache.
Because someone from the Southern King has come, and since they found out she’s not at Molan Mansion, they’ve been waiting.
"Your Highness, shall you see him?"
Long Da asked softly.
The Southern King’s people are waiting outside, if you don’t see them... when you return to the Imperial City... the face might be hard to maintain.
"Let him come in!"
They all know she’s back, so she definitely has to meet him.
But after meeting him... it might be hard to say.
Others are fine, but the Southern King is part of the Imperial Family, and technically he’s of her uncle’s generation.
"Yes!"
Long Da replied, then went outside.
A middle-aged man in black clothes hurriedly asked, "Commander Long, what did Her Highness say?"
The Southern King’s side has been urging him quite a bit these days.
But what can he do?
With Qin Ying not around, he could only wait.
"Her Highness told you to go in, quickly, Her Highness is a bit tired!"
Long Da said solemnly.
"Thank you, Commander Long!"
He slightly bowed, then tidied up his clothes before entering the room.
"Greetings, Princess!"
The middle-aged man bowed respectfully.
"Dispense with it!"
Qin Ying looked calm and asked, "Why did the Southern King send you?"
"Haha!"
The middle-aged man coldly chuckled in his heart.
This Princess really knows the answer already, what other reason could there be for sending him?
But externally, he still showed great respect and said, "Lord Southern King wants to inquire about information on the Ning Family, and also sent me to remind Your Highness, time is running out."
"Understood, leave now!"
Qin Ying waved her hand.
The middle-aged man was suddenly stunned.
She didn’t even explain, just said she knew and told him to go?
How could he report back to the Southern King?
"Why aren’t you leaving, do you want meals here from my palace?"
Qin Ying, looking coldly at him.
"No, no, please calm down, Princess!"
The middle-aged man, seeing this, suddenly panicked, having intended to ask more, but immediately dared not to ask further.
"I shall leave now, please be calm, please be calm!"
Saying this, he retreated quickly, waiting until he reached the door before turning around.
Promptly left from here.
Inside the room, Qin Ying sighed helplessly. Although she sent off the Southern King’s man in mere words, as time grows shorter, the Southern King will become more anxious.
Hope that he won’t come personally.
Otherwise... it’ll be troublesome.
Marquis Ning’s treasure is tempting enough for him to risk.
"Better start making some preparations."
Qin Ying rubbed her forehead, all because of Chen Xuan, else it wouldn’t be this troublesome.
"That bastard!"
Whenever she thought of him, she couldn’t help but curse.
Returning to Molan Mansion was like disappearing, not knowing where he is leisurely enjoying.
Whereas she, coming back to deal with all these messes.
First it was Changsun Tian talking about how hard it’s been during this time, how even without her at Molan Mansion he dared not to relax a bit.
In the end, although he didn’t find the Ning Family.
He has already tried his best.
With a long-winded bunch, making her feel extremely irritable inside.
Now it’s the Southern King’s people.
The more she thought about it, the more unbalanced her heart felt.
"Hmph!"
...
In the evening.
"Your Highness Liu..."
"Not seeing him!"
Before Long Da finished speaking, Qin Ying’s voice came from the room, sounding very impatient.
"This..."
Liu Si and Long Da exchanged glances.
"Young Master Xuan sent Liu Si here."
"What?"
Originally lying sideways, Qin Ying suddenly sat up straight.
"At least he’s got some conscience."
The corners of her mouth slightly curled.
But instantly returned to normal, casually said, "Let him come in."
"Greetings, Miss Qin."
Liu Si came in and greeted with a smile.
He didn’t address her as Your Highness, because he addresses all Chen Xuan’s wives as Miss, so now, in his heart, he regards Qin Ying as Chen Xuan’s woman.
Indeed, the moment he called her Miss Qin, a hint of smile appeared in Qin Ying’s eyes.
"Why did he send you?"
"Reporting, Miss Qin, the master sent me to invite you to a banquet at the mansion."
Liu Si replied softly.
Having returned to Molan Mansion today, even though the journey wasn’t bad, the food was far too plain.
So today, a grand banquet is prepared at the mansion.
Obviously, with Chen Xuan’s personality, he wouldn’t forget her.
"Alright, got it, you go ahead, I’ll arrive later."
"Yes!"
Liu Si slightly bowed, then left the room.
Once he was gone, Qin Ying immediately began dressing herself, apparently it’s her first time going to his mansion.
Must dress up well.
Busy until the evening.
Qin Ying looked in the bronze mirror from left to right and nodded with great satisfaction.
"Not bad!"
Then she left the room, heading to Chen Xuan’s mansion.
Of course with Long Da, and carrying two bottles of good wine in hand.
...
Inside Chen Mansion.
Ning Xin and several others have been busy all afternoon, with a variety of exquisite dishes covering the table.
"Wow... finally can eat something good."
Luan Ying looked at the table full of delicacies, drooling.
On the way back from September City, she was satisfied with everything except the food.
"What are you doing!"
Ning Xin slapped her hand trying to steal a bite.
"Husband hasn’t arrived yet!"
"It’s my hand acting on its own, I didn’t want to."
Luan Ying babbled nonsense.
Ning Xin gave her a glare but didn’t expose her, instead instructing, "Go call husband for dinner."
"Understood!"
Luan Ying made a mischievous expression, then ran cheerfully towards the study.
