Chapter 320 Zige Gets Married(2)_1
"I have already sent someone to invite the prince back to the residence. Miss Li, feel free to do as you wish. I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now." Situ Gong explained with a smile.
"Mr. Situ is a man who assists the prince in significant matters. We are not strangers, so there’s no need to care too much about entertaining me. Please feel free to proceed." Li Yanran symbolically bowed to Situ Gong then sat down without any hesitation. "I heard that the winter plum blossoms in the backyard are thriving, I would love to go and see them."
"Miss Li, at your own convenience." Upon hearing this, Situ Gong immediately knew what she was thinking. However, if someone is foolish, he would not stop them. Moreover, in the Wang Residence, a place guarded as steadfastly as a golden soup, she would not be able to make any waves anyway.
When Li Yanran heard Situ Gong’s explicit consent, she was elated beyond words.
As Situ Gong had guessed, Li Yanran’s intention of admiring the plum blossoms was fake; her actual aim was to come to the backyard and show off.
All the aristocratic families in Feng City were aware that the Wang Residence didn’t have a primary consort, but the number of women in the backyard was not small, and many of them were beauties sent by the emperor and other princes. There were already three consorts in the residence, not to mention countless number of beauties.
However, the one managing the backyard were not the three consorts, but a slave concubine. In other words, these three consorts, no matter how high their status were, they still had to listen to the commands of a slave concubine when matters arise.
Li Yanran had long been eyeing the position of the main consort of the prince, so naturally, she didn’t have any good feeling for any of the women in the backyard. Among them, the three consorts and that slave concubine were the most detestable to her.
"Miss, the plum blossoms in the backyard are really beautiful." Seeing the plum blossoms in full bloom, the eyes of the maiden beside Li Yanran were completely attracted by them.
