Chapter 725: Banquet

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was not until the last Black Armored Guard disappeared at the end of the stairs that Yuwen Jing finally came back to her senses. Did she just get rejected by Mr. Zhuge in front of everyone?

Mr. Zhuge was her father’s strategist!

He had never been harsh to her!

She… She had even asked Mr. Zhuge for guidance many times. Mr. Zhuge had patiently explained it to her, and Mr. Zhuge even praised her for being smart… She was a promising child…

“It’s all your fault!”

She turned around and glared at Guo Lingxi coldly.

Guo Lingxi felt as if she had been hit in the head. Her expression changed slightly as she clenched her handkerchief. “Why are you blaming me again?” She was also very wronged, okay?

Yuwen Jing was young and impetuous after all, and she was used to being flattered. Now that she had suddenly been embarra.s.sed, she was unhappy.

“Didn’t you say that she was definitely not Mr. Zhuge’s sister? You even said that if she was related to Mr. Zhuge, you would chop off your head! Show me!”

The number of onlookers increased instead of decreasing, almost blocking the corridor.

When everyone heard Yuwen Jing’s words, they pointed at Guo Lingxi.

When the two of them fell into the mud at the same time, they only needed to step on each other’s shoulders to come out of the embara.s.sment.

Guo Lingxi was about to vomit blood from anger. She wanted to say that Yuwen Jing was the one who questioned Qin Su’s relations.h.i.+p with Zhuge Qing first.

She was just supporting Yuwen Jing. Why did it all become her fault in the end?

If it were a few months ago, she would have said whatever she thought. After all, she had been raised in the palm of others. She had even bullied Princess Hui An. What was a mere princess?

Unfortunately, this was not the Great Zhou, and she was no longer Princess Lingxi, who had the support of the Grand Empress Dowager and the Guo family.

She was only a concubine of the Western Jin Emperor.

She could not really fall out with the biological granddaughter of the Western Jin Emperor.

As she hated Yuwen Jing, she was very puzzled.

Qin Su grew up in the countryside and returned to the capital. She was extremely sure that Qin Su had never been to Western Jin. How did she know Zhuge Qing?

Why did she become Zhuge Qing’s… sister?

No, she was definitely not his real sister!

“Is there something wrong with Zhuge Qing or Qin Su?”

Guo Lingxi looked at the top floor where no one dared to go up and bit her lip coldly. She would figure it out sooner or later!

The top floor of the Dongting Building was very wide. Half of it was built into an elegant pavilion, and the rest had been transformed into an open-air garden. There were some flowers, fruits, and grapes planted in the courtyard.

Mei Ji was picking grapes with the three little ones.

The three little ones could not pick them themselves. There were Black Armored Guards carrying them.

Second Master Shen was still in a daze. His face was red and he was a burly man. Suddenly, he became like a shy wife who did not dare to speak.

“This is Second Master Shen. We met on the day we entered the city. Second Master Shen, this is my… brother!”

She would call him that for the time being.

Second Master Shen was not a talkative person. It was obvious from the fact that he had never asked about her relations.h.i.+p with the Princess’s Residence.

Second Master Shen really did not question in detail what siblings they were. Zhuge Qing politely called him Second Master Shen, scaring him so much that he stood up from his chair! “Mr. Zhuge, just call me Shen Xin!” Zhuge Qing smiled.

Second Master Shen was intoxicated again.

As a man, he felt that another man was very charming when he smiled.

Moreover, Mr. Zhuge did not put on any airs at all. He was very easy-going, but there was an invisible mysterious dignity that made people not dare to blaspheme and act rashly.

“I’ll go pick grapes with my nephews!”

He could tell that the two of them had something to say and tactfully found an excuse to leave.

Zhuge Qing looked at the grape trellis and instructed, “Mei Ji, entertain the guests well.”

“Got it!” Mei Ji picked a bunch of grapes and turned around. Her proud chest met Second Master Shen’s gaze.

Second Master Shen’s nose bled..

Su Xiaoxiao mentioned to Zhuge Qing that the Western Jin Emperor had asked her to treat his legs. “So you’re the Western Jin Emperor’s strategist. Why did you choose Yuwen Huai?”

Zhuge Qing said, “Guess.”

Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms. “I won’t guess!”

Zhuge Qing smiled and took a sip of tea.

He treated her like a child and didn’t want to tell her… Forget it, she wasn’t too curious.

Thinking of something, Su Xiaoxiao continued, “What do you plan to say to the Western Jin Emperor? If Guo Lingxi finds out, I can guarantee that the first thing she will do after returning is to report our relations.h.i.+p to the Western Jin Emperor. In addition, if I’m your sister, won’t I be too embarra.s.sed to collect the consultation fee when the Western Jin Emperor invites me to treat you?” Zhuge Qing glanced at her. “The main point is the last sentence, right?

About 15 minutes later, Wei Ting arrived.

Second Master Shen was meticulous. He did not find Wei Ting in Crimson Moon Opera House and sent someone to the Moon Chasing Inn. The servant really b.u.mped into Wei Ting.

Wei Ting had already heard what had just happened in the lobby. His second brother had supported the little fat peac.o.c.k. He liked it very much.

He greeted Second Master Shen and sat back beside the two of them. “Second

Brother, don’t tell me you own the Dongting Restaurant?”

Mei Ji came over with a basket of grapes and placed them in front of Zhuge Qing. “The Dongting Restaurant isn’t Teacher’s business. It’s opened by a friend of Sir’s. Sir once helped him!”

With that, she glared at Wei Ting. “Blind!”

Wei Ting couldn’t be bothered to argue with the little girl.

Mei Ji snorted and left, continuing to pick grapes.

Wei Ting pinched a grape. “Crimson Moon Opera House belongs to Second

Brother, right? Wait, don’t tell me Second Brother owns the Moon Chasing Inn

Zhuge Qing said nothing.

Wei Ting was stunned. “Second Brother really owns it! Then why did he charge me for the room?!”

Zhuge Qing said, “We’re biological brothers. Let’s settle accounts openly.” Wei Ting was speechless.

The merchant of Wei had not arrived for a long time. Second Master Shen could not let Mr. Zhuge wait for a pharmaceutical merchant. Moreover, there were children. If Mr. Zhuge was not hungry, the children should be hungry. Second Master Shen said, “He’s not here after so long. He might have been delayed.”

Zhuge Qing looked at the three little ones who were yawning. “Then let’s eat first.”

Xiaohu ate pig b.a.l.l.s as he wished.

Unfortunately, when he was picking the grapes just now, others were picking for him to eat. His stomach was already full. He only ate a few pork b.a.l.l.s and could no longer stuff them in.

Dahu and Erhu each grabbed a roasted lamb chop and ate until their mouths were oily.

Zhuge Qing was a vegetarian.

Second Master Shen was very excited tonight. He had seen Mr. Zhuge… in person.

Not only that, but he also ate at the same table as the other party. He had to go to his ancestral grave to see if there was smoke.

He felt his head heat up. He picked up the wine gla.s.s with both hands and stood up. “I, I, I… I’ll toast you!” Mei Ji said solemnly, “My master doesn’t drink!” Second Master Shen: “Ah…

Zhuge Qing smiled. “I’ll replace wine with tea, okay?”

Second Master Shen was flattered and his head was about to fall off. “Okay, okay, okay! ”

Ten thousand times okay!

After one gla.s.s, he was even more drunk.

Wei Ting could hold his liquor well and drank two gla.s.ses with him.

After three rounds of wine, the Wei Nation’s pharmaceutical merchant finally arrived.

“Sorry, sorry. I just returned to the West Capital. I heard from my medicine boy that you want to buy my herbs.”

Second Master Shen said, “That’s right. Brother Liu, is your herb still there?” Master Liu sighed. “If you had come to me a day earlier, I could have sold it to

you.. No, it’s to give you! But when I left the West Capital today… I’ve already sold it to someone else!”
