Chapter 288 - Suspicious Meeting

"Look at him, he looks so happy" Ming Yue Yin scoffed angrily.

"I don't know, he looks awkward to me" Lory squint her eyes to sharpen her gaze, did she see wrong? that man looks very uncomfortable.

"Are you blind, look at that! he is smiling!" Ming Yue Yin grumbles.

"Is it? he looks like he's annoyed to me….I think they're's something wrong in you're eyes" Lory begins to wonder if they see the same person.

"They're's something wrong in you're eyes!" Ming Yue Yin refuted back.

Lory clicks her tongue exasperatedly, why this brat so upset?

Suddenly someone knocked on they're door, Lory used her 'man' voice to answer "Come in"

A young female maid enters the room, the girls only fourteen years old and the young maid is cute and innocent with fresh looks just like peony flower make Lory worry if a girl like this would save working in here than again she believes Bei Li Yan will not mistreat innocent girl, would he?

The sweet girl comes with three-layer steam basket filled with Xiao Long Bao, the steam from the basket make her face slightly red "Good evening young master" she bows a little than she served the food on the table, she lifted her head and she's stunned by Lory gentle smiles, the girl suddenly blushed she cover half her face with the tray subconsciously.

"Do you have pink blossom tea or citrus sun tea?" Lory asked.

"Yes, we do!" she said immediately "but isn't the tea too sweet for male?" the young maid worry the young Master might not know the taste, most men don't like this kinda tea.

Lory smile becomes more tender "I like sweet," she said with a gentle gaze.

As if an arrow hit her heart the young maid becomes flustered and Ming Yue yin can see imaginable smoke on the top of the young maid head, suddenly she blurted out "I…I'm sweet too" she blurted her thought but than she realizes how brazen she is the young maid reflex is covering her mouth, even though this is brothels but what she's doing is rude, she scared the young master would be mad at her.

Lory thought the maid flustered dace is adorable, she chuckles lightly "I know you do…" she smiles warmly.

The young maid becomes more flustered, she bows repeatedly and tuns out of the room while covering her whole face with the tray. Lory didn't understand why the young maid running so fast is not like she told her to hurry, but than Lory notices the sharp gaze from Ming Yue Yin as if she blaming her for something.

"What?" she asked innocently.

"I'm just glad you are a woman…." Ming Yue Yin makes relief expression which make Lory confuse.

Lory didn't understand what she means, she afixed her gaze back to Yuan Shao not long after someon approach him from behind the man is wearing bright purple silk robes and wearing a jade crown headwear, he appear like a noble, Lory than realizes who is that man is her eyebrows gradually furrow "What is he doing here?"

Ming Yue Yin shifts her eyes to Lory "You know him?"

"Yes, he is the fifth Prince of Jiang Wei Kingdom, Zhao Qin Feng" Lory said.

"Is he the one who visits the manor before?" Ming Yue Yin confuses, Isn't Zhao Qin feng asked Zhao Li Xin for help but why he meeting with Yuan Shao? Before she finishes questioning another man appear, a young man with sky blue robes and golden flower embroidery on the collar and his wide sleeve and gold belt on his waist, his style looks gaudy and tacky for Lory taste.

"Who is that man?" Lory murmured.

"Yang Qiong Yang, the marquis, I heard he got the title because he saves a small city from plague two years ago" Ming Yue yin lean on the window frame.

"How can you know him?" Lory asked.

"I'm an empress, I have my own source" Ming Yue Yin raised her eyebrows.

Lory pursed her lips, sometimes she forgot about Ming Yue Yin is a smart woman maybe because she acted foolishly all the time around her. She closes the window but leaves a small gap to peek. She wonders why a marquis, a general and a prince from another kingdom meeting here, the man with the name Yang Qiong smile widely until his eyes make athin line, the man looks very cunning and sneaky.

Than a woman who seem like the manager of the drunkan flower greet them than politely lead them to enter a private room on the second floor, Lory and Ming Yue Yin could hear the sound of footsteps increasing towards them and stop not far from them and the room across them is open and they enter the room than the door is closing and everything become quiet again.

"Do you think people would get suspicious if they saw them together?" Ming Yue Yin glance at Lory.

"Three men having fun in the brothels? I don't think people wouldn't care" Lory sigh.

Ming Yue Yin peeks from the gap of the door and sees a lot of guards in front of the door, than she close the door carefully she walk toward Lory with dissaponted look "Its imposible to eavesdrop them" Ming Yue Yin plop on the chair.

"Not impossible…" Lory smile mischievously.

"You have a idea" Ming Yue Ying face beamed.

"We need help though" Lory rest lean her back on the chair than she closes her eyes, Ming Yue yin sit in front of her quietly while sip her wine, she didn't know what Lory do but she believe something interesting would happen.

Suddenly a white orbs fly throught the window in high speed and stop in front of Lory face than the orbs transform into a bird shape, the bird flapping his wings in front of her.

[You disturbing me] he complains.

[You just being pampered by the three beasts all day long…] Lory pursed her lips.

[And you disturbing me…] he replied in an obvious tone.

Ming Yue Yin watched them talking with a weird language from the side, her eyes lit up "Lord Girsha!" Ming Yue Yin greets with a big smile, she had seen a glimps of Lory past and she saw Girsha magnificent appearance who able to block the sun with his giant body, it was a terrifying but spectacular sight.

Girsha notices Ming Yue Yin's presence [Ah, the weird girl…]

Ming Yue Yin didn't know what Girsha said "Is he talking to me. what he said" she becomes elated.

Lory looks at her with a blank expression "He said Hello…" she lies without a blink.

Ming Yue Yin face beamed like a lightbulb "Greeting Lord Girsha" she cupped her fist respectfully but she can't hide her joy.

Girsha perch on the table than he raised his right wings like human raised they're hand to say 'hello' [Hello weirdo!]

The weirdo didn't know what the bird said, she moves towards Lory with the satisfied expression "I think he likes me" she whispers at Lory with a confident smile.
