The Marquis' Wife
The command makes a new kind of wine

He An'an who was sitting together with the He family smiled very brightly and cunningly heard what Yang Guifei said and knew that it would destroy the Lu Xiang family so he became the one who was most looking forward to what did Yang Guifei and the third prince expect.

So was the aggrieved Duke He's family and Marquis Shan's family who were rejected by Lu Xiang's concubine's daughter's proposal, if only no one had supported the man then he would have already done something to eliminate that damn Lu Xiang.

Although it was not them who would destroy Lu Xiang and his wife but the enemy of my enemy was my friend. There were no eternal enemies in this world but eternal gains, the two families that disliked Lu Xiang were very much looking forward to the fall of that man and could no longer cause any waves in the future.

Emperor Murong smiled at Yang Guifei. "All as Aiqing wanted".

Emperor Murong then turned his head towards Adelia. "Then Miao Adelia will be weeding out a unique wine that Zhen has never drank before, if you manage to do so then Zhen will give you first-class female status for you".

Emperor Murong only said about the reward if Adelia managed to do so but did not say the punishment if she did not manage to do so. His actions made some people confused, understood or disapproved, one of them being Yang Guifei and the third prince.

Yang Guifei wanted to do something for Emperor Murong to add punishment in his oral order but seeing the smiling Emperor Murong made Yang Guifei's body goosebumps for no reason.

Yang Guifei immediately returned the Emperor's smile and lowered his gaze as if embarrassed but his hands on his thighs trembled, his gaze looking puzzled as he did not know why his body had suddenly goosebumps at the Emperor's smile, the Emperor's, but clearly his inner self said that he could no longer intervene in what the Emperor wanted to do.

Yang Guifei took a deep breath trying to calm down. It's okay, it's okay, although there is no punishment if it fails, how could the Emperor be offended if the wine offered by Adelia is mediocre and inappropriate wine to be offered to the Emperor.

Adelia bowed low back from her knees. "This ordinary woman heard His Majesty's orders. This ordinary woman would go to great lengths not to disappoint the Emperor's expectations".

"alright. You can come back".

Lu Xiang and Adelia saluted the Emperor before returning to their table, as soon as Lu xiang sat down he immediately clasped his wife's hand tightly, whether it's trying to cheer up or feeling nervous about what just happened.

"I'm fine" whispered Adelia.

Lu Xiang looked at Adelia's not-so-pale face and knowing that Adelia could handle the Emperor's orders, he breathed a sigh of relief. The two then focus back on the course of the event that did not last long before the Queen Mother and the Emperor left the Queen Mother's birthday party first.

Lu Xiang immediately hugged his wife as he entered the horse carriage. "Honey. Can you fulfill the Emperor's orders?". Despite knowing that Adelia could handle the Emperor's orders, he was not calm before confirming it from his own wife's mouth.

Lu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief but his heart grew tense again seeing Adelia's doubtful gaze. "What's Adelia?".

Adelia moved her lips thinking hard but she could not find a solution, she could only sigh deeply. "But I don't know what to say if the Emperor asks me where I learned wine from".

Lu Xiang was stunned for a moment before replying. "You could say that all the knowledge you know today comes from a dream. Use the reason you fell into the river before marrying me as the reason".

This time Adelia was the one who was stunned. "I can use that ridiculous excuse".

Lu Xiang nodded. "You may not know, in this world people believe in superstition. If there is a strange incident that makes no sense then the first thing done by the people is to call the monk to handle the incident, not only that people will definitely use various talismans in their lives like you just saw at the Queen Mother's birthday party".

Only then did Adelia realize that superstition was still very thick in ancient society as she knew in history in the modern world that she lived before. Adelia nodded in agreement. "Alright, we'll think of a suitable reason and not sound too ridiculous as an excuse".

The two went home, to visit the sleeping Baobao. Adelia smiled sadly and resignedly looked at her son's slightly swollen eyes from crying as she went to the party with Lu Xiang.

Baobao was so attached to him that he would cry if he did not see his mother, it makes Adelia not know should be happy or resigned but fortunately she is no longer busy in the cake shop because her business runs smoothly with the help of Lu Niang and manager Xie.

Lu Xiang looked at the beautiful and serene face of his sleeping wife, he could not close his eyes as recalling the incident at the Queen Mother's birthday party, his gaze turned cold, cold, emotional and upset because there are many who want bad events to happen to his family. He was increasingly upset because of his helplessness in protecting his wife.

I must enter into the faction of the prince's son, lu Xiang thought he was steady in his heart but hesitated because he could not go to Murong Xianming and said that he would support him.

Lu Xiang certainly had to prove himself useful, he could have given Murong Xianming a recipe for making crystal glass or mirrors, but he wasn't sure if the gift would bring them luck or bring destruction because it was too useful have its own negative side.

Lu Xiang decided to join the crown prince faction because the events that took place at the Queen Mother's party showed that the Emperor was truly affectionate and gave great affection to Yang Guifei and the third prince. Seeing the Emperor's attitude that was very supportive of whatever Yang Guifei said then his family would definitely get new problems in the future and therefore he needed a strong backing to deal with the matter and prevent mother and the boy did as they pleased.

Did I just give you a step to make stainless steel?, Lu Xiang shook his head. No, it's not conducive, though, he could not directly give the ace he had just because it would make the value of the ace decrease and Murong Xianming thought that what he gave was not so valuable.

Lu Xiang looked back at his sleeping wife, peeked at the woman's forehead, cheeks and lips beside him then smiled at Adelia's disturbed expression, he had already decided to wait two or three days before meeting Murong Xianming through Ming Baixin.
