Chapter 7 – A Thrashing
The Marquis Household is a noble family, not lacking in gold and silver. They don’t really care about Prince Jing’s bride price, but now, when the bride price is given, not only did Prince Jing not personally come, the amount is much less than what is normal. Prince Jing obviously does not respect his sister. If he accepts the bride price without a word, his sister will definitely become a laughingstock.

Listening to his reproach, Seneschal Wang showed disbelief, “His Highness had already announced to the Capital that he will be marrying Miss Murong as concubine. Your Honor did not know?”

Murong Rong was startled, surprised and angry, “When did this happened?”

“Just at the welcome feast earlier. All the court officials had heard it. Your Honor actually have not heard of it? Did you not attend the feast?” Seneschal Wang softly said teasingly.

Murong Ye gave an uncomfortable light cough. He had not been back to the Mansion for a few days. Although he knew that Ye Chenyi had returned to the Capital victorious from the war, he did not know that the welcome feast was today…

“His Highness is forced to follow with this poorer plan to achieve peace between Qingyan and Mobei. Miss Murong has suffered because of it but I hope your Honor can be magnanimous enough to forgive.” The Prince’s Seneschal bowed deeply and respectfully towards Murong Ye apologetically.

Murong Ye stared at Seneschal Wang, a complicated expression flitted pass his face. It was after a while before he said, “Well, since your Prince does not like my sister, then let’s annul the engagement. There’s no need to act so falsely and humiliate my sister.”

Seneschal Wang froze, a look of surprise appeared. He didn’t think that this useless playboy will also suggest annulling the engagement after hearing his sister get demoted to concubine level…

“My sister is the Marquis’ Household wife-born daughter. Although both our parents have passed and she is sick and weakly, but she is still of noble status. Any noble gentleman in the Capital will be willing to take her as his first wife. She has no need to lower her status and become someone’s concubine.”

Murong Ye’s determinated and strong voice travelled into his ears. Seneschal Wang smiled faintly. It seems that the Murong family has a strong backbone. It’s too bad their opponent is Prince Jing, “Your Honor, his Highness is also in a difficult position…”
