“Not at the moment. Zhou Ying has already helped me prepare most of what I need. If there is anything else, I will look for you again.”

“Alright, don’t stand on ceremony.”

As the three of them chatted, many more guests walked in one after another. However, most of them were women and young ladies, and there were also some young boys.

Soon, more than half of the tent was occupied, and the chattering almost sounded like a market.

Zhou Ying curiously spread out her divine senses to look and found that most of them were matchmaking for their children, especially the madams who weren’t from the capital. They were all trying their best to promote their children for engagement.

Many people even enjoyed watching this.

At this moment, Zhou Ying thought of something. She looked at Mingyu and asked, “Mingyu, how old are you this year?”

Mingyu, who was drinking tea, was surprised by the sudden question. “I’m 17 after the day of the Lunar New Year. What’s wrong?”

“17? Why didn’t Consort An get you ready for your marriage?”

“My marriage has to be approved by the Emperor, but since the Emperor has not mentioned it, my father did not dare to ask.”

“He has to ask soon. If you delay any longer, all the good men of your age will be snatched away. It will be difficult to find a suitable one by then.”

Gu Wanning’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. She immediately remembered Mingyu’s miserable ending in her previous life. Even though the sudden change in King Rui had changed the political situation in this life, who knew if the Emperor would still use Mingyu for a marriage alliance?

Thinking of this, she nodded in agreement and said, “Indeed, the Emperor is always busy, and he’s also a man. Perhaps he didn’t take this matter to heart.

“You and your father should choose a few candidates and report to the Emperor. If it’s suitable, he will definitely agree to your marriage.”

Mingyu blushed and nodded. “1’11 mention it to my mother later.”

“I think you should mention it to your grandmother too.” Zhou Ying added.

No matter what, the Empress Dowager and Madam Consort An were friends. It was safer for her to come forward compared to Consort An.

Mingyu understood what Zhou Ying meant. She nodded and said, “I understand.”

Seeing this, Zhou Ying did not say anything more. She simply poured another cup of tea and drank it.

A moment later, a mother and daughter walked over and bowed. “Greetings, Princess Mingyu.”

Mingyu glanced at them. After confirming that they did not know each other, she raised her head and replied, “Do raise your heads; there’s no need to be so polite.”

“Thank you, Princess.” After the two of them got up, the woman looked at Zhou Ying and asked, “Are you Mrs. Gu?”

“You are?”

“I’m the wife of Lord Zhao of the Kaiyang Prefecture. This is my daughter, Zhao Xiuli.” The woman introduced herself.

Zhou Ying looked at them in surprise. Although they had never met before, they were technically considered enemies. For a moment, she could not figure out why they had come.

“What’s the matter?” She asked directly.

Madam Zhao looked at her vigilant gaze and smiled awkwardly. “I know because of Xiuying, we…”

Zhou Ying directly interrupted her. “Just say what you’re here for.”

Madam Zhao did not speak but looked at Mingyu and Gu Wanning.

Mingyu looked at Zhou Ying.

Zhou Ying hesitated for a moment and nodded. She wanted to see what the mother and daughter wanted from her.

“Let’s go, Wanning; accompany me to the toilet.”

Gu Wanning grabbed Zhou Ying’s hand. Noticing that Zhou Ying had just squeezed back, she got up and walked out.

Only then did Zhou Ying invite the mother and daughter to sit down. “If you have something to say, say it now.”

After Madam Zhao sat down, she tilted her head and whispered, “I want to work with you and your husband to take down Zhao..”
