"How did they bully ? To be honest, it’s better if they do bully , this way I can execute my plan."
"In short, Ashu, follow my instructions. We need to find out when they plan to initiate the uprising, especially this Prince Li, there’s definitely more to him than ets the eye."
Last ti, due to his own negligence, it resulted in Qin Shen’s death.
It almost disrupted Sister Mianmian’s plan, so this ti, Yun Xiu would not ss up her plan no matter what.
Thus, he nodded vigorously.
After Ruan Mian patted his arm, Yun Xiu suddenly rembered sothing and quickly motioned for the servant behind him to hand a delicate box over to Ruan Mian.
"Sister Mianmian, this is sothing Lord Qin asked to bring to you. His attendant just delivered it, though I’m not sure what’s inside."
Ruan Mian looked over curiously, and when they opened the box, both of them were extrely taken aback by its contents.
It wasn’t anything else but a set of clothes made from the finest fabrics.
Resplendent and exquisite!
Yun Xiu imdiately frowned, "What’s the aning of this, Qin Fu? Does he think that your dressing isn’t good enough and is afraid of being embarrassed?!"
Ruan Mian couldn’t help but laugh; indeed, Yun Xiu was still a child inexperienced in the ways of the world.
This clothing plainly revealed Qin Fu’s intentions, didn’t it?
Simply put, it’s about presenting herself as a gift to be offered before Prince Li.
However, Ruan Mian had no intention of following his foolish idea on how to package this gift.
So she smiled reassuringly, "Ashu, take this away, I don’t need it."
Yun Xiu snorted dismissively, "Sister Mianmian is naturally beautiful; she doesn’t need these vulgar items to accentuate her. I’ll take it away right now, out of sight, out of mind!"
In his eyes, Ruan Mian was more beautiful than any woman present, such that even if she were clad in a sack, her elegance would still be unmatched.
When Ruan Mian arrived at the backyard, she found that Qin Fu had deliberately arranged her seat in an inconspicuous corner, with a screen in front, making it impossible for others to see anything.
It might be out of consideration that Ruan Mian was a lady, but more than that, he now regarded Ruan Mian as one of his own.
They were already allies on the sa battle line.
Li Ren ca in together with Qin Fu.
When the crowd saw Prince Li, they were all taken aback because none expected King Yan’s adopted son to be such a noble and unassuming person.
Everyone thought he would be dressed in luxuries and exude an assertive aura, but unexpectedly, he was a refined and reserved gentleman.
Nevertheless, considering his status, everyone still bowed respectfully.
Still behind the screen, Ruan Mian saw the man she brought in was indeed Li Ren, and a slight curve appeared on her lips.
It seed her suspicion was correct.
She just didn’t know how Qin Fu planned to thrust her in front of Li Ren today.
Looking at her surroundings, she noticed many won in heavy makeup.
Upon closer inspection, there were not just those in heavy makeup but also those with a pure and fresh appearance, several types of won were waiting there.
Observing her own position, Ruan Mian suddenly sneered.
Even if Qin Fu considered her as part of his side, it didn’t matter; in his eyes, no matter how capable a woman was, she was rely a pawn to be used.
Compared to those won, Ruan Mian was just endowed with a few extra skills for crafting weapons in his eyes.
With this understanding, the clothing Qin Fu sent earlier validated Ruan Mian’s thoughts even more.
The banquet was accompanied by rounds of flattery. Ruan Mian leisurely enjoyed her wine and food, ensuring she wouldn’t be hungry no matter what performance she’d witness next. After a while, everyone moved to the middle of the courtyard.
Ruan Mian and the won with her were guided by two old won to the courtyard as well.
They stood on a high pavilion corridor, where they could take in the entire courtyard view with a glance.
In the center of the courtyard, a group of exotic dancers with distinctive appearances danced with abandon.
Soon after, a long line of strong n carrying sothing huge resembling a box, covered with a curtain, made a grand entrance.
The others were curious, not knowing what was inside. Just this box-like object being covered was half as tall as a house.
Qin Fu stroked his beard, walked up to Li Ren with a mysterious smile, and proudly said.
"Prince, you’ve traveled a long way. Qin specially prepared this banquet for you and has a special gift prepared. I wonder if my lord will be pleased."
"Soone, open the gift for the prince."
At his command, soone quickly went up to unveil the draped curtain.
