The Marquis' Wife
The Murong Xianming Effect

Murong Xianming chuckled softly at the speechless expressions of Lu Xiang and Adelia. "Why are your expressions like that? Do you think I have another reason to come here?".

"Of course not prince". Though they say yes, their answer must be in accordance with the expectations of the crown prince.

"Haha. I do have another reason. The reason may be...because I want to play with my beloved sister?".

Murong Xianming then ordered a few pieces of cake and drinks before turning back to Lu Xiang. "Comedown. My beloved sister will definitely come soon, they love me so much that they know the ins and outs of what I do".

"Good prince". 

Murong Xianming's words made Lu Xiang aware that the man's influence was greater in the capital and also influenced the other two princes. And right, it wasn't long before Murong Xianming walked into De Xiang's shop, Murong Xianting and Murong Xianxian learned of the news and were like hot caterpillars.

Various bad thoughts were thought by the two men who were almost 30 years old. They thought that Murong Xianming had no interest and interest in Lu Xiang's abilities so they didn't pay much attention to the man they thought was arrogant yet didn't seem to be!.

Murong Xianming just waited for them to let their guard down before pulling Lu Xiang to his side!!!.

Not long after, as Murong Xianming had said. The two princes came together to make visitors more surprised and astonished and think what background Lu Xiang to the three princes of the famous Murong kingdom came to visit the first day of the store's opening.

"We met the third prince, we met the fourth prince!". The low bowed visitors greeted respectfully at the two men dressed in luxurious and elegant clothes.

"Haha, you guys don't have to be so stiff. I just want to try the food and drink he said was famous in Fucheng. Please sit back". Murong Xianxian.

Murong Xianting did not have enough patience to serve ordinary people who did not have any benefits for him. 

"Jinshi Lu Xiang met the third prince. Jinshi Lu Xiang meets the fourth prince".

Adelia who was at the side also greeted while bowing low. 

"Lu Xiang, how are you? this prince hasn't seen you in a long time". Murong Xianting tried to make small talk, he forgot the insults and taunts he had thrown at Qionling's party.

"Good prince. It's a pride for me that you visit my wife's shop".

Only then did Murong Xianting see Adelia who was just silent after greeting. His gaze was stunned for a moment because it was unexpected that Lu Xiang's wife was a beautiful and charming woman. He had already heard the rumors of the arrival of the woman and thought that Zhuangyuang's wife was an old-looking woman as she continued to work hard in the fields like a village woman but Adelia in front of him almost kept up with the beautiful girl famous in the capital.

"This is your wife?".

A meaningful and slightly ambiguous gaze made Adelia feel uneasy, as did Lu Xiang whose gaze turned a little dark.

"Yes prince. This is my wife Miao Adelia".

"Women used to meet princes. May you always be healthy". Adelia introduces herself by lowering her face so as not to be seen by Murong Xianting but the effort is unsuccessful and increasingly makes the man interested to want to put his hand on the shoulder but Adelia immediately rewinds the move.

"I'm sorry for my impoliteness prince. I don't deserve your wise and thoughtful attention". Adelia clasped her skirt with the hand she was hiding held in disdain over the sensual gaze thrown at her. 

Murong Xianting's smile grew more and more but Lu Xiang's offer distracted him.

"Prince, please come with me. I'll show you your room".

"alright". Murong Xianting glanced at Adelia one last time before stepping up to the second floor.

Before the two of them entered the room that Lu Xiang had pointed out, the two princes asked Lu Xiang where Murong Xianming's room was because he wanted to say hello and watch.

"First brother. I didn't think you were here too! How fortuitous".

"Yes first brother. Didn't the first brother-in-law come with you?".

After Lu Xiang knocked and obtained permission, Murong Xianting and Murong Xianxian entered and made small talk.

Murong Xianming cut a small tart so that his son could enjoy it without a hitch. "Third sister, fourth sister sit down. It's really a coincidence".

"Haha. We didn't expect to see you here either. I thought you didn't like sweet cakes but it didn't seem like it. You came here on the first day of the store opening".

"Yes. Haha. I'm sure the cake here must have been so good that you were celebrating the first opening of Lu Xiang's wife's shop".

Murong Xianming's eyes flashed with interest, as he had expected of his sister. The inquiry clad in questions so adeptly came out of their mouths. What if he added their anxiety, it might result in something interesting?.

"Don't make fun of me third sister, fourth sister. I came here to accompany my son who likes sweet food and drinks. Besides that I can also talk to Jinshi Lu Xiang, you know my sister that she is a competent scholar?".

His second smile momentarily became stiff. "really? Do you want to talk about brother? Can I join you?".

"Yes first brother. It would be nice to talk to wine and wine. Our conversation will definitely last a long time".

"You're right Xianting. I spoke up because it would be boring to just accompany Zaoer to eat the cake so I thought it would be nice if Lu Xiang also joined but since there are you two I don't need Lu Xiang anymore".

Murong Xianming's reply made the two of them become suspicious that any secret talk would happen if they did not visit today. It seemed like the process had to be accelerated, the more they delayed it would make their elder brother's influence would deepen both in the capital and in other cities.

News of the arrival of the three princes spread rapidly throughout the city of Shenyang making many people talk about the spectacular event and unwittingly made De Xiang's shop famous without any promotion. Not only that, Lu Xiang also reappeared in public and other rumors also rose along with the talk about men in various teahouses and restaurants. 

The second day of the De Xiang store was filled with people who were curious about shops, menus and shop owners to make the three famous princes in the capital want to visit. It made De Xiang's shop instantly full and even people were willing to queue and wait or book a chair for the next day.

Various parties also speculated about the presence of the three Murong sisters to the De Xiang store until it made the Emperor smile when he heard it from Han eunuchs.

"It looks like MingEr is really bored and wants to change the atmosphere of the capital".

Eunuch Han also smiled, just like the Emperor he also cherished the boy close to him.

"Does the crown prince want to speed up the process?".

Emperor Murong smiled faintly, his eyes staring and reading the reports he had received from the officials regarding the matters occurring in his kingdom. "He wants to test the water".

Eunuch Han nodded in understanding. Testing the water will have an impact on two things, bad things and and good things that will be beneficial but given the nature of the father and child, he believes that good things are the result.
