After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight
Chapter 64: The Princess's Mission to Marry
The madam guessed that the person Tang Yuhuai brought must be of extraordinary status, but she was able to build Ningxiang Tower to such a large scale in just seven years, and it was already on par with the Yingke Tower opposite.
It can be seen that the power behind Ningxiang Tower is extraordinary. Since the madam can be in charge of Ningxiang Tower, naturally her methods and schemes are extraordinary.
"It's all a misunderstanding. He's just used to it. These three friends of mine don't like women getting too close to them. We won't cause any trouble in Ningxiang Tower."
Tang Yuhuai had no intention of causing trouble, no matter whether they could afford to offend the power behind Ningxiang Tower or not.
The madam saw that Tang Yuhuai had a special attitude towards these three people, which showed that their identities were all extraordinary. Lord Tang was the son of the current general, and his identity was already very noble.
The person who could be treated with such care by him could only be of a more noble status than Tang Yuhuai, or on an equal footing with him.
"Since Master Tang has said so, this matter is probably a misunderstanding. I will go up and ask someone to invite Miss Xingyue to the wing room to accompany you guys."
"Xiang Ling, take a few young men upstairs to Room Number 3." The madam was very flexible. She had spoken in a harsh voice just now, but now she was smiling like a flower.
Rong Qingzhu was once bitten by a snake, so he was afraid of ropes for ten years. Even though the madam said so, he still didn't let go of Chu Xi's sleeve, "...I will go up with you."
Seeing his blushing face, Chu Xi said with a smile, "What are you afraid of? They can't eat you."
Rong Qingzhu, "...This is more terrifying than Qingfeng Mountain."
Chu Xi laughed again. She really didn't expect that this son of the prime minister, who was as good as him as a sharp swordsman, would regard women as a scourge and a beast, and even think they were more terrifying than a den of bandits.
"So what are you going to do when you get married?"
"We'll talk about it then." Rong Qingzhu refused to think about such long-term things.
Today he realized deeply how difficult women are.
"...Young Master." Tang Yuhuai didn't dare to directly reveal the identity of King Yan, so he could only call him Young Master euphemistically.
Zhou Yichen said, "Zheng Hao, step down."
He turned around and saw that Qi Bai was not frightened by the scene, but Rong Qingzhu was blushing and wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"Just do as you wish." Zhou Yichen said to Tang Yuhuai.
Tang Yuhuai heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't want any rumor to spread tomorrow about Prince Yan causing a scene in Ningxiang Tower. If he did that, he would be a sinner for all eternity.
Among the many princes, only Prince Yan is capable, talented, and sympathetic to the people. He does not want to ruin Prince Yan's reputation because of himself.
"Don't worry, sir. Instead of asking Bai and the others to go upstairs first, leave this to me." Tang Yuhuai said quickly.
Zhou Yichen doesn't like others to get close to him. When he was young, he lived in the palace and was almost assassinated by the palace maids several times. This caused him to become more and more defensive and he could not accept anyone approaching him except his confidants.
As for Chu Xi, she is relatively okay. She has indeed not had a peaceful day since entering this world, but she is not so resistant to others approaching her that she cannot stand being touched.
Rong Qingzhu was lucky. If it were the previous owner, he would probably have quickly pulled back the sleeve that Rong Qingzhu had grabbed.
"Go upstairs." Zhou Yichen's eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of Rong Qingzhu's fingers pulling his white sleeves. His eyes froze, as if they passed across Rong Qingzhu's face unintentionally.
As he went upstairs, he said slowly, "Master Rong avoids these women, so why did you come here?"
Zhou Yichen never thought of winning over the Prime Minister and the General's Mansion, so he spoke... very bluntly.
Rong Qingzhu was awakened by Zhou Yichen's words and quickly let go of his hand. His gentle face was as gentle as jade, but he smiled a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Highness."
Zhou Yichen was silent for a moment, then glanced at Chu Xi beside him, "Are you scared?"
Chu Xi was startled and chuckled, "Not bad."
Zhou Yichen, "...That's good. Qi Bai is more comfortable than I thought."
Chu Xi, "..." Why does this sound a little wrong?
She replied calmly, "Your Highness, you are too kind."
Zhou Yichen...stopped talking.

Xiang Ling led them to the main street room on the right side of the third floor, which was Room No. 3.
The furnishings inside are worthy of the name of Tianzifang. There are antiques, calligraphy and paintings, as well as incense. There are screens on both sides and five tables in the middle where you can sit down to drink and watch singing and dancing.
All five tables have double seats and are arranged according to status. The top seat naturally belongs to Prince of Yan Zhou Yichen.
As soon as Zhou Yichen sat down, he wanted Chu Xi to sit next to him, but Chu Xi took the first seat at the table on his left.
Seeing that everyone had sat down, he didn't say anything.
Rong Qingzhu was still frightened by the incident when he was almost besieged by those women downstairs, and instinctively sat down at the second table next to Chu Xi.
There is a full half-meter aisle between the two tables.
All the tables are for doubles, which are prepared for the women who come to accompany the guests for drinks. The furnishings of this restaurant are quite interesting.
Chu Xi was not interested in these. She had been curious about a question before, so she asked Zhou Yichen before anyone came up, "Your Highness, have the Western Chu envoys entered the capital? I saw that the first person to come on stage today seemed to have an unusual status?"
Rong Qingzhu also felt that the man from Western Chu was most likely a member of the royal family. He spoke with such confidence. Even if he was not a member of the royal family, he should be the son of some important court official.
Zhou Yichen arrived too late, he did not see the man, and could not judge who Chu Xi saw, but the staff in his mansion had already collected the information early.
"Among the envoys from Western Chu this time are the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince. I believe you must have met one of them, as well as a princess."
"Like us, they also entered the city today at noon. Now they are staying at the post station, waiting for other delegations to arrive in the capital so that we can host a banquet together."
Rong Qingzhu seemed to be thinking, "The princess is going on a diplomatic mission, is this for a marriage?"
Zhou Yichen nodded.
Rong Qingzhu was hesitant to speak. The Rong family took a neutral stance, so some things were difficult to say.
When a princess is married off, she is either sent to His Majesty's harem or given to a prince. Generally speaking, the prince who is assigned a marriage is most likely kicked out of the list of candidates for the throne.
I am afraid that given Your Majesty’s dislike for Prince Yan, this matter will most likely fall on his head.
Chu Xi doesn’t care about the princess’ marriage. In the novel, Zhou Yichen is almost dead, but he is still alone.
She tapped the table with her fingers and smiled with an ambiguous smile, "Oh, you're going to fight in the arena today when you enter the capital. Have you heard about it a long time ago?"
Zhou Yichen pondered, Qi Bai's words hit the point.
If the princes of Western Chu really knew everything about the marriage contest, it meant that they had been paying attention to every move in the capital, and the contest might have shown them an interest in the granddaughter of the Wei State.
But...I want to test the level of the children of the noble families in Beijing.
The delegation coming from the grassland probably has the same purpose.
While they were talking, Tang Yuhuai came upstairs and pushed the door open. Seeing that they had all chosen their seats, he sat down opposite Chu Xi.
"Sir, Miss Xingyue is here." A servant knocked on the door outside and reported.
