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.
