348 Chapter 348 “Palace Banquet“

"Why us??" Li Shi Ying almost flip the table when she got the invitation with her and Chen’s name written there.

This was an invitation to attend the emperor’s birthday banquet! They were outsiders, they weren’t even someone from high status within nobles at White Tiger country.

But...it seemed that those Duan siblings still had a way to invite them to a birthday banquet!

"Just how could we get invited to attend this banquet? Isn’t this invitation usually for ministers or important people from White Tiger Country?" Li Shi Ying took a deep breath before throwing the invitation with her name written on it, to the floor.

"In the invitation, its stated that mistress and Chen are the crown prince along with the princess saviour. That’s why you guys are invited to the banquet" Jiu Wei shrugged his shoulder after he read the invitation but deep inside his heart he knew there must be a plot behind this invitation.

Seemed like that b*tch princess had plotted something for our mistress!

Hearing Jiu Wei words, Li Shi Ying went silent as she too thought the same. It was either the princess had plotted something for her or...that Duan Hu Yan plotted something to make her his wife.

Hhhh can she just refuse this invitation?? They had get the powder so they could just leave right?

"Jiu Wei can we just refuse the invitation and leave this country tonight? We have get the powder so what use we have staying here" Li Shi Ying sighed when she look at the bright red card on the table.

This sudden invitation was so suspicious!

"Unfortunately since the banquet will begin tomorrow night, the capital city’s gate has been sealed and no one can go in or out until this celebration end" Jiu Wei shook his head pitying their miserable situation.

The emperor was afraid someone will try to assassinate him during his birthday party so he already sealed off the capital city. He also positioned many guards all around the city. It would be hard to sneak out without causing trouble.

"So I have to attend?! Damn!" Li Shi Ying gritted her teeth knowing that she and Chen really didn’t have any choices aside from attending the banquet.

"Don’t worry miss no one can do anything bad to you as long as I’m with you" Chen who was silent during Li Shi Ying conversation with Jiu Wei, finally spoke as he casually stroke Li Shi Ying gently.

Lately, stroking or letting Li Shi Ying sleep on his lap was something usual for both Chen and Li Shi Ying. Even though Li Shi Ying was sometimes felt awkward, she still felt comfortable around Chen.

"...fine...if Chen said so" With a slightly blushing cheek, Li Shi Ying nodded her head feeling the warmth of Chen hand.

Hmph she knew that princess or maybe Duan Hu Yan plotted something for her but she wasn’t that weak to be bullied so easily! Whatever those guys are plotting now, she will face it!

Li Shi Ying had accepted the invitation and had agree to attend with Chen coaxing her thus, the next morning Jiu Wei and the others were already busy preparing Li Shi Ying attire for the banquet tonight.

Since 8 a.m, Li Shi Ying had taken a special flowery bath. She also suddenly get special massage from Jiu Wei and the others. She washed her hair, and since evening, Jiu Wei had put make up on her face!

The banquet start at 7 p.m so they had to depart at least at 6 p.m as not to be late for the banquet. Jiu Wei had apply make up for Li Shi Ying, around 3 p.m!

This made Li Shi Ying had the urge to bang her head to the floor. She hate make up and dressing up like a peacock!

Thankfully Jiu Wei only made a few minor make up for Li Shi Ying. The one taking up time was arranging Li Shi Ying hair. It takes 2 hours to get it done.

"Alright! Perfect!" Jiu Wei wipe the sweat on his forehead after he put the last hairpin, the golden bell hairpin on Li Shi Ying head.

"ugh...finally..." Li Shi Ying sighed when she felt how heavy her hair was now.

So damn heavy!! 😫

Li Shi Ying now had changed clothes into a mint green dress Jiu Wei choose for her. This dress looked so good on her white skin and obviously, would make her appear different from other ladies who usually would wear pink or white for tonight banquet.

"Wow mistress! So beautiful!!" Di Yu who had just finish putting on the white deer tools form on Li Shi Ying shoulder, gasped in surprise after he saw Li Shi Ying appearance.

I-it was so pretty! Like a goddess!

Of course it couldn’t be compared to Meng Yue Ming beauty but Li Shi Ying still had her own unique trait making anyone couldn’t help but notice her presence.

She didn’t look like a cold beauty nor like a weak white lotus. She also didn’t look cheerful or childish. She looked mysteriously beautiful!

Even though Li Shi Ying herself didn’t realize how beautiful she is now, the men inside the room including Qi Tou, secretly blushed looking at her beauty.
