THE EVIL PRINCE AND HIS PRECIOUS WIFE
Chapter 55 – Warning

Murong Xue turned to look. He saw Qin Yuyuan gracefully walking into the residence. He was wearing a green robe embroidered with begonia flowers. A rope was tied around her waist, making her look attractive and very beautiful.

“Yuyuan, why are you here?” Ye Yichen spoke softly, his cruel face suddenly softened.

“Day is getting dark and I'm afraid there will be a storm, so I brought you your cape!” Qin Yuyuan smiled. He then wore a purple robe around Ye Yichen.

The robe was beautifully crafted, the wave pattern and the clouds were embroidered with golden threads. This strengthened Ye Yichen's elegance and ruthlessness. But the way he looked at Qin Yuyuan was gentle, “Thank you.”

Qin Yuyuan's eyes glittered happily, “That's what I should do.. ..”.

“Prince Jing, Princess Qin, if you want to show your affection, please return to the Qingyan residence, you can do whatever you like there.” Murong Xue calmly said, her eyes showing annoyance, “This is my residence, there are still many things I have to take care of and I am not free to see your flabby demeanor. The entrance is right in front!”

Ye Yichen's face became gloomy. Calmly, he looked at Murong Xue. But he didn't speak.

Qin Yuyuan's smile disappeared. Behind his sleeves, he clenched his hands. Even with Yichen by his side, Murong Xue still had the guts to mock him. If Murong Xue had a death wish, she would grant it:

“Are you jealous, Miss Murong? Yichen is a good person, she is so loving that she does not want to leave you, once you get engaged to her as her concubine, we will become a family.

Murong Xue's gaze turned cold, his hands outstretched in anger, a sword as sharp as an arrow shot towards Qin Yuyuan. It was thrown at a perfect speed so that no one could avoid it.

Only heard the sound of ”TING!” it sounded and left a deep wound on the wall above Qin Yuyuan's head. That power caused the sword hilt to tremble lightly above his head.

“Qin Yuyuan, let me repeat it for the last time. Even if I die, I will never marry Ye Yichen as a concubine. If I hear you use that title on me one more time, the next thing my sword will slit is your throat!”

The cold warning issued sounded bored in everyone's ears and pierced through Qin Yuyuan's heart. She's trembling. Slowly, he realized.

At that moment, he hated Murong Xue so much. She looked at her lover, Ye Yichen sadly, her eyes glazed over, "Yichen!" His voice choked with pity, as if he had been humiliated in public.

Ye Yichen did not heed his plea, instead, he looked at MuRong Xue deeply. When he threw his sword, he had studied his point of view and knew that it would not hurt Qin Yuyuan. That's why he didn't interfere to stop it.

Yuyuan had just mentioned that she was his concubine and she reacted violently. It seemed, she must have hated being his concubine so much!

"Get out of here! I don't welcome you!” Murong Xue looked coldly at Ye Yichen and Qin Yuyuan.

Qin Yuyuan was furious, how dare he drive them away like that! He would immediately tell Murong Xue what regret felt like!

"Yichen!" Qin Yuyuan pleaded sadly, his eyes glazed over. She looked so sad that it made people want to hug her to protect her.

Ye Yichen turned his head towards him, his eyes showing an impenetrable shadow of darkness. He stretched out his arm to hold his wrist and turned to step out, “Let's go.”

Qin Yuyuan was stunned, his eyes widened in shock. Murong Xue had insulted him, didn't Ye Yichen have to punish him severely to avenge him? Then why didn't he even try to lecture her and she instead turned to leave just like that?

Ye Yichen followed the emerald path. In her mind, she continued to imagine the beautiful face of Murong Xue. First hearing of the King's approved flood management plan, he was overcome with doubt and insinuation. Murong Xue was just a daughter of a rich man, how could she, alone, be able to think of such a brilliant plan when there were no ministers or sages in the royal palace who possessed it? He had to work with someone else who was very intelligent!

The real purpose of his arrival to the Zhen Residence was to find out who was the mastermind behind the brilliant plan and make it one of his own for the sake of his advantage.

While Murong Yue was still present in the Zhen Residence, he was extremely strong and intelligent. Not many can fight it. Sheng, who was also from the Zhen Residence, was also an intelligent woman. Of course, his second daughter was smart as well.

A while ago, he did not like Murong Xue too much and did not bother to make contact with her. Therefore, he never knew how intelligent he was and did not care whether he was smart or not.

But after returning with victory from his last war, he met her many times. Slowly, she began to realize that she was indeed a very smart woman. Every time they met, he always let out a kind of 'surprise' that he didn't expect……

With him by her side, she would never experience ordinary days!

Ye Yichen's mouth formed a smile.

A long shadow approached. This person had an attractive face and a warm smile. It was the Fourth Prince.

Ye Yichen's eyes sparkled, "Tian Qi!" What the hell is he doing here?

“Yichen, Princess Qin, it seems like you are here too! I'm here looking for Miss Murong.” Ye Tian Qi smiled. His presence was like a breeze in the spring. He politely walked past Ye Yichen and Qin Yuyuan.

“My father and ministers have heard about your flood management plan. Very good Miss Murong, you are indeed smart!”

“Thank you Fourth Prince!” Murong Xue smiled humbly.

“When I came out, I met with the prime minister and the duke, they asked me to ask if you will have a banquet.”

"banquet?" Murong Xue flinched.

He realized that in this era, when the rich experienced lucky and joyous events, they would have a banquet at their home. However, in his residence, the host mother, Murong Yue had died early, Murong Jian, the host uncle, was working away and Murong Rou, the host's aunt, was working away, long engaged to someone else. Only Madam Du, the host's step-grandmother, Murong Ye and herself remained in this residence. That was why, other than Madam Du's birthday banquet, Zhen's residence usually remained quiet and the banquet was a rare occurrence.

“I'm afraid it's inappropriate to hold a banquet.”

Usually when a banquet is held, adults from rich and noble families will be invited. But his older brother and himself were not even their age, making it difficult to share the same topics or interests with the guests….

Ye Tian Qi saw Murong Xue's face becoming moody and thought that he was thinking about how his parents died early on. He then deliberately coughed so that the atmosphere was not too awkward.

“Having a large banquet is inappropriate. However, you can have a small dinner and invite the young princes and other rich young people to celebrate!”

The guests he mentioned were of a closer age to Murong Xue and Murong Ye, therefore, they might have similar interests.

Murong Xue blinked, "I'm afraid I'll have to delay his dinner, I'll be out of town to take care of some necessities..."

The DiYang Grass on Mount Yu had matured and he had to harvest it immediately.

“Don't worry, the people at the prime minister's and duke's house are not in a hurry. You can have dinner whenever you have free time. And it's okay if you don't want to hold it! However, whenever the prime minister or duke sends an invitation, be sure to attend it.

Ye Tian Qi's soft suggestion sounded in the ears of everyone present. Madam Du's eyelids began to tremble, an uncomfortable feeling started to boil inside her….
