Chapter 721 Expects His Coming



Oi! I am an article!


It had been a month and a half since Ye Wushuang and She Jingtian met last time.


It was hard to imagine, the two of them were at Wuyou Castle but could not meet for so long. It used to be 7 days at most, but this time it turned out to be one and a half months.


Oi! I am an article!


In this one and a half months, She Jingtian visited Zhaixing Pavilion several times, but had no idea what Ye Wushuang was intentionally, or indeed truly coincidental, Ye Wushuang had always not been there every time She Jingtian came.


Seeing every time Uncle She left with a grim and disappointed expression, Shangguan Min’er no longer so expected Uncle She to come. Min’er felt Uncle She always seemed to think of something every time she came, but no matter how Min’er asked, Uncle She did not say anything, just gazing into the distance while daydreaming.


Today the Prince Liang of the Nan Dynasty, Fu Zhongrong, came to Wuyou Castle, She Jingtian as the leader of course personally led hundreds of thousands of his subordinates to go welcoming. His actions were so great that it could be said to shock the entire Wuyou City.


Although every year after the beginning of spring there are always members of the royal family or nobles from various countries who come here to play or buy goods, but, She Jingtian as the leader also welcomed them one by one, but this was the first time she had welcomed someone so grandly.

In the eyes of outsiders, She Jingtian could be so concerned about the arrival of this person, there were some people who thought that the other party had definitely held a high position in the Nan Dynasty and She Jingtian had the intention to please him. There were some people who said that it was because She Jingtian had a very good relationship with this person because it was She Jingtian acting like this. There are so many different opinions, each having its own opinion, leaving others at a loss to discern which is right and which is wrong.


Actually to please or to welcome, it seems that only two people concerned can understand the truth.


At Wuyou Castle, the food provided to welcome Prince Liang, Fu Zhongrong was not an expensive and rare food. In the spring under a fully blooming willow tree, a flat, square-shaped wok has been placed on it, an oil paper has been placed, on the paper it was already covered with fresh roasted meat whose surface was already sprinkled with special spices, after being roasted under the fire, along with a gentle breeze, the dense aroma instantly scattered.


Prince Liang who was originally not too hungry was moved when he smelled the scent. But due to his identity, he should not be too hasty, Prince Liang pretended to calmly glance at She Jingtian and said: “Kak She, why? Is this Wuyou Castle you're reducing expenses? The banquet you provided for me was this?”


She Jingtian was comforted by her funny reaction, waved her clothing sleeves calmly and said: “Maybe Prince Liang has eaten all kinds of delicious food in Nan Dynasty, I heard you have a bad appetite, I heard you have a bad appetite, although this banquet is not big enough and also does not suit your status as a Prince, but it is quite unique, you should try it, it definitely will not disappoint you.”


“Alright, Sister She, I trust you. Let's sit down together!”


Looking at Prince Liang's expression, She Jingtian also smiled in satisfaction, then the two sat down one by one.


When he first started eating, Prince Liang was still chewing slowly and carefully, not losing the gentleness and elegance of the royal family. But the longer along with the sound of oil in the pot, he already did not care about how it looked anymore, started to roll up his sleeves and eat excitedly.


“Kak She, this slice of meat turns out to be baked so fragrant. And this duck intestine, really very crunchy.”


The prince Liang who was eating was unable to hold back his praise.


She Jingtian proudly lifted her chin, smiled and said: “Of course, what else do you want to eat? I'll have people bring it for you, just put it in it and baked using some seasoning, it tastes really amazing.”


“No need, I will do it myself, it will be more fun if roasting it myself while eating.”
