At the Wu Residence’s dining table, Wu Kunhu looked around and frowned. “Where’s Muyu?”

Wu Lie replied, “Younger Sister, Second Prince, and Su Wen went to listen to Xie Dajia’s concert.

Wu Kunhu looked at Wu Lie as he instructed, “Keep an eye on your younger sister. Tell her to stay away from the royal family and to keep her distance from Su Wen as well.”

“Why?” Wu Lie asked.

Wu Kunhu had a cold smile on his face, “Most of these imperial descendants are cold. In their eyes, there’s only the throne. Most of the people who approach your sister are probably trying to rope me in. There’s no need to associate with people that have such thoughts.”

“As for Su Wen, this brat is just like his father and is His Majesty’s lackey. Now that His Majesty is still around, he can let them bark like crazy. If one day His Majesty dies and the new Emperor ascends the throne, it will be time to settle this father and son!”

After all, he was in his own home, so Wu Kunhu dared to speak more casually.

“Father, you said you wanted to help me with the marriage. When are you going to look for His Majesty?” Wu Lie couldn’t help but ask.

Wu Suihu looked at him helplessly and said, “When did I say I was going to find His Majesty?”

“Huh?”

“This marriage was decided by His Majesty. Su Wen’s father is Su Changqing. Even if I went to look for His Majesty, His Majesty would definitely not agree to change Yan Luoying’s marriage partner just like that!” Wu Kunhu explained.

“His Majesty’s relationship with Su Changqing is much closer than mine. If I told His Majesty that I wanted him to betroth Yan Luoying to you, His Majesty would not agree for fear of disappointing Su Changqing. In fact, it would be better if I didn’t mention it. If I told His Majesty, there would be no chance to turn this marriage around.”

“Then what should we do?” Wu Lie could not help but ask. This was what he was most concerned about.

Wu Zehu smiled and said, “What should we do? Just wait and see. I heard that Yan Luoying also doesn’t want to marry Su Wen. Su Wen is arrogant and despotic, always causing trouble. If it was just once or twice, His Majesty would still protect him on account of Su Changqing.

However, after so many times, His Majesty will definitely be displeased. Yan Luoying will also have an excuse to cancel the engagement. When that time comes, His Majesty will probably have to think about it. After all, Yan Luoying is someone His Majesty still wants to use in the future!”

“As long as this marriage is annulled, I can propose for His Majesty to betroth Yan Luoying to you!”

“Just wait patiently. With your father around, this marriage will not succeed!”

Wu Lie fell into deep thought. If his father was so confident, could it be that his sister did not need to date Su Wen anymore?

He did not want Su Wen to become his brother-in-law!

“Alright, I’ll tell my sister to stay away from Su Wen when she comes back!”

At the Eternal Music Pavilion, Honorable Xie and Xie Yiyi had retreated from the stage to rest.

However, all the men’s gazes were focused on Xie Yiyi until she left the stage. Only then did they return to normal.

On the other hand, even though the ladies felt that Xie Yiyi’s dance was moving, they didn’t have the desire that a man would have to possess her. Instead, it only made them admire the music even more.

Su Wen was no exception from the rest of the men. He watched Xie Yiyi leave reluctantly.

Suddenly, he felt a piece of flesh on his waist being pulled up and gently twisted. Although it didn’t hurt, the feeling was very obvious.

Looking down, it was indeed Yan Luoying doing this.

“Is she that nice to look at?” Yan Luoying stared at him and questioned.

Su Wen smiled. “She’s indeed gorgeous! I really want to know what’s under that veil!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Muyu smiled and added, “Brother Su, do you like that girl’s dance? I can’t learn Xie Dajia’s zither skills, but I can attempt to practice that dance. When I have time, I can give Brother and Sister Yan a performance too!”

She stared at Yan Luoying with her big innocent eyes and smiled, “Sister Yan, you don’t mind, do you?”

Yan Luoying looked at Wu Muyu, whose smile was literally dripping with saccharine sweetness. She wanted to punch her in the face and knock her out on the spot.

However, she could only hold it in and squeeze out a smile. “I don’t mind. It’s just that I reckon your dance might not be as good as the one on stage.”

Wu Muyu was surprisingly not offended, “I’m definitely not as good as that person, but I’m willing to learn for Brother Su.”

Yan Luoying gritted her teeth and said, “Aren’t you afraid that your future husband will be unhappy if you dance for Su Wen?”

Wu Muyu glanced at Su Wen with a smile. “I’m especially envious of Sister Yan for having a husband like Brother Su. I hope that Sister Yan can introduce me to a husband who is as broad-minded as Brother Su. That way, he won’t mind if I dance for other men.”

Yan Luoying realized that every word of this girl seemed to be able to prick her emotions.

She had never hated someone so much!

‘As expected, they’re really a family. Both brother and sister are equally irritating!’

Yan Luoying complained inwardly.

Right this moment, the Second Prince turned to Su Wen and asked in a low voice, “Brother, can you help me ask about that woman’s identity?”

Su Wen narrowed his eyes. It was clear that the Second Prince had been tempted.

However, the Second Prince was still royalty after all. If he were to rashly ask for her name, it would make him appear rather frivolous.

In reality, he was not the only one who did this.

Be it the Crown Prince or the Third, they also entrusted their tablemates to investigate.

Su Wen’s eyes shifted as he smiled. “Alright, I’ll go take a look now!”

Coincidentally, he was also very interested in that woman.

Su Wen got up and went backstage.

When she arrived at the backstage entrance, she saw many people being blocked at the entrance. The person who stopped them was the lady announcer who was in charge of the performance today.

Su Wen leaned forward and heard her say, “The dancer is Miss Yiyi. She is the daughter of the royal family of Qi Country. After the fall of the Qi Country, she managed to escape and used her dancing skills to make a living. This is her first time coming to our Zhou Country and she is currently staying at Cloud Gazing Tower with Honorable Xie. The Eternal Music Pavilion doesn’t know anything else. Please leave!”

Hearing this, Su Wen turned back to his seat, where he recounted everything to the Second Prince.

After listening to Su Wen’s explanation, the Fifth Princess Zhao Xuanxuan said, “The Qi Country was destroyed by Yan Country ten years ago. If she really is a daughter of the Royal Family, it is not impossible for her to be lost among the common people. But now, even if she is a Princess of the Qi Country, she is merely a slave from a fallen country. It means nothing.”

The Second Prince laughed, “Fifth Sister’s words are a bit biased. After all, the daughter from the Qi Country’s royal family is still considered royal blood. Compared to ordinary people, she is naturally much more noble.”

Zhao Xuanxuan was no fool, she could naturally tell what the Second Prince was thinking. She smiled and asked, “Is Second Brother tempted?”

The second prince laughed awkwardly, “Haha! What are you talking about, Little Sister? I’ve never even seen that woman’s appearance, so how could I possibly be moved by her? I’m just curious about that woman’s beautiful dance moves!”

He was a little embarrassed.

Right at this moment, Su Wen said, “That’s great! I thought that Your Highness had taken a liking to this woman and had decided to give up on her in account of our brotherhood. Since Your Highness isn’t interested, then I’ll tell you the truth. When I saw this woman’s dance and her eyes, my heart surged. I’ve already made my decision. I will definitely bring this woman home!”

Second Prince: “????”

He was momentarily at a loss for words. He felt like screaming, ‘I was too embarrassed to say it out loud. Why did you insist on interfering with my affairs now?’

However, he had just refuted his sister’s claims, so he could not possibly admit his desire for the woman and shoot himself on his foot!

The Second Prince wanted to cry, but no tears could come out!
