I'll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law Chapter 356

Chapter 356

Jiang Mingwei could hardly stand the urge to curse at her whilst Wanyan Duo still had her head lowered, appearing docile and courteous, “This Concubine greets Princess An. I’m now a member of Prince Jin’s Mansion merely as a side wife, so I dare not be addressed as a Princess. Hence, Your Highness can just address me by name.”
Mu Mingtang was a little surprised. It seemed like Wanyan Duo was both a very flexible and ruthless person. Mu Mingtang looked at Jiang Mingwei and sincerely congratulated her, “I have long heard that the Princess of the Tayan Tribe is magnanimous and doesn’t lose to men when it comes to her abilities. Upon seeing her today, I think that she truly lives up to her good reputation. Congratulations to you and Prince Jin for having such a great aid. In the future, if you encounter a dilemma regarding the matters of the mansion, you can have Concubine Yan suggest a couple of solutions.”
Jiang Mingwei put on a stiff face, forced a smile and said, “It’s the officials and the Empress who have been benevolent. Wanyan’s position as the side wife represents the peace between the two countries. I am also very flattered to have the officials trust us enough to have her granted to Prince Jin’s Mansion.”
Mu Mingtang laughed as soon as she heard it, “Oh, since you two are so grateful for it, I should relay this gratitude to Her Highness the Empress. This sort of benevolence should be presented more often to you, then.”
Jiang Mingwei couldn’t help but laugh. At this time, a commotion broke out outside the garden. Everyone looked up and found that it was Xiao Siyi who had arrived.
Everyone knew that Xiao Siyi was the prospective 8th Princess. Beirong didn’t uphold strict rules that declared unmarried couples were unfit to meet each other before marriage. Basically, it meant that engaged couples were technically considered husband and wife. Xiao Siyi always pursued Ye Luyan and she wasn’t shy to express her feelings in public either. The people of the Ye Dynasty were also rather used to seeing that scene play out, so they weren’t that surprised either.
Xiao Siyi used to be in close vicinity with Ye Luyan everywhere he went, but she never spoke to the noble women of the Ye Dynasty. However, she was walking straight to the gazebo, as if she came here on purpose to find someone.
Everyone seemed to have made a correct inference— Xiao Siyi did come here specifically to find someone. She saw Mu Mingtang and her eyes brightened up, heading directly towards her. Everyone realised that the girl was indeed looking for Princess An.
It wasn’t unexpected since this action was within reason. The Empress Dowager Xiao’s niece’s eyes were always set for the skies. Perhaps it was only Princess An in this entire venue who fit the standards of the girl’s piercing gaze.
Xiao Siyi’s purpose was very prominent, so everyone became silent the moment she started to approach. Xiao Siyi stopped a few steps away from Mu Mingtang. Seeing that she was ignoring the girl on purpose, she could only take the initiative to address her, “Princess An.”
Only then did Mu Mingtang turn around and smile at her,”Lady Xiao, dare I ask what is it that you need?”
“It’s nothing, I’m just curious,” After finishing speaking, Xiao Siyi sat down on the empty seat across from her without waiting for any greetings. After she sat down, she glanced at Jiang Mingwei and uttered without hiding her disgust, “Bad luck.”
