The Madame Jiang clenched his fists and quietly sat down.

That night at dinner, due to the arrival of the Yi'er, everyone gathered together once in a while. Even Meier and her brother who had not appeared for a long time came to the main hall to eat with everyone.

"My son/daughter-in-law greets father and mother."

"Greetings to grandfather and grandmother."

"Greetings to Your Highness and Princess Ziyi."

The group waited in the dining hall, and when they saw Ming Chengyan and Madame Ye coming out, they bowed together and greeted them in unison.

"Take a seat." Ming Chengyan complied, bringing along Madame Ye, the two of them sat at the seat of honor, the others after receiving their agreement they thanked him, and they sat down.

Beneath Ming Chengyan sat Ming Mu, Madame Jiang, Meier and Ming Yuning, and below Madame Ye sat Ming Jinmo, Lin Clan, Ming Yuchen and Zi Yi. At the long table, Ming Yuning and Zi Yi were sitting face to face.

"During this period of time, all of you have to stay in the Prince's Mansion. As the elders, you must take care of him." Ming Chengyan swept a glance across everyone and said.

"We shall obey father's teachings."

Ming Jinmo replied gently. She understood Mu Lengchuan, but after a while, she reluctantly agreed. Although she was slightly dissatisfied in her heart, she did not dare to voice it out.

In Mu's opinion, Zi Yi only came here because he wanted to curry favor with their Duke Palaces.

"Grandfather, I heard that Ziyi is exceptionally intelligent. He had studied with his younger brother at the manor before, and now that he has come to the manor, I wonder if I could follow him and learn a few lessons?"

Ming Yuning's gaze stayed on Zi Yi the entire time, and in the end, he still couldn't resist speaking up.

From the first time he saw Ziyi, he felt that he was very good-looking, fair and clean, the type that he liked.

He had always liked beautiful things, men and women alike, and wanted a taste.

This is the first time that he's come to the Duke's Palace, so he doesn't know any rules. I'm afraid that he will get into trouble, but in my opinion, if Big Brother wants to ask for guidance, you should wait for the future. "

After Ming Yuchen heard his big brother's words, his face immediately changed, even his tone was not very good, but he was used to tolerating people with a sweet mouth, after changing his expression slightly, he returned to normal, and after planning for a while, in a place where others could not see, a ruthless look flashed past his eyes.

Although he had always been at the Manor, he had more or less heard of Ming Yuning's matters — — Eating both genders.

This person had already raised a servant privately.

His big brother really did not know the rules and dared to touch his people!

"Chen'er, what you're saying is wrong. Your brother is very knowledgeable, and if Zi Yi has anything he doesn't understand, he can ask him. Isn't it a good idea for the two of them to discuss it together? What does a child like you know? "

Since Mu had always been protecting Ming Yuning, she didn't think too much about it and immediately reprimanded him.

"Father, I invited Ziyi. I should have taken care of him. Brother, it's better if you pay more attention to your studies so that you can share father's worries."

Ming Yuchen suppressed his anger and said.

Other than Zi Yi, everyone at the table understood what Ming Yuchen meant.

Ming Yuning's face became ugly. He didn't have anything to do, he just didn't like to study as much as Mu Yi. From time to time, he would go to the Flower Hall to drink. This made Ming Chengyan very dissatisfied.

"Second brother's words are wrong …"

Ming Yuning did not notice Ming Chengyan's expression. At the moment, all of his focus was on Zi Yi and he was originally playing around with Ming Chengyan, but seeing how Ming Yuchen was obstructing him, Ming Yuning became a bit more determined to win.

The more Ming Yuchen prevented him from getting close to Zi Yi, the more he wanted to get close to her.

Zi Yi was still young. Although his facial features had yet to grow, he had a handsome appearance and black pupils and cherry lips. If he grew a bit more in a few more years, perhaps even the capital's most famous Courtesan Belle would be slightly inferior to him.

"There's no need for all of you to say anymore, Ziyi is brought over by the Chen'er, just follow him, Ning'er, you will stay in the courtyard and study hard, don't go out every day!"

Ming Chengyan immediately interrupted them and glared at the couple who were still eating, making the final decision.

It didn't matter if his eldest son was a trash, since Ming Yuning should have been a good sapling. But he was taught badly by Mu and Meier!

Currently, in the Duke Palaces, the one in charge was still Ming Chengyan. Since he had already spoken, let alone Ming Yuning, even Mu Mu did not dare to refute more.

In the evening, Ming Yuchen brought Zi Yi to his room to study, and the two of them walked around the courtyard.

Ming Yuchen ordered his men to place down the rattan chairs in the courtyard. The two of them sat on the rattan chairs as they drank tea and enjoyed the view of the night.

"Yi'er, if my big brother comes looking for you in the future, you don't need to worry about him."

"Alright, I'll remember."

He also didn't like that Ming Yuning, and the way he looked at him tonight was weird.

"The sky above the capital is different from the sky above the Villa. After we return to the capital, I miss the days of Villa more and more. Yi'er, what about you?" Ming Yuchen tilted his head to look at Zi Yi, sighing with emotion.

"As long as the family is by my side, I am willing to stay anywhere. Big Brother Yuchun, if you are tired of staying in the Duke Palaces, you can come and find me at any time. I will be here anytime."

As if sensing his gaze, Zi Yi slightly tilted his head and his gaze met with Ming Yuchen's. This time, when he saw Ming Yuchen, he felt that Ming Yuchen was not happy in the slightest, and immediately felt sorry for him.

"Alright."

Ming Yuchen laughed warmly, he could not help but reach out to stroke Zi Yi's hair, and the look in his eyes became gentler.

He would do his best!

There was no one in the courtyard to disturb them. They chatted until deep into the night before they went back to their respective rooms to rest.

Ming Yuchen sent Zi Yi to his room, but when he saw that Zi Yi was gone, his face became cold without a trace of gentleness.

"Someone, come." Ming Yuchen shouted towards the empty room.

"What orders does Master have?" A black-clothed person appeared in the room out of thin air. He lowered his head, knelt on one knee, and respectfully asked.

"I want you to do something for me."

"Yes." The man in black kept his head down.

"Tonight …" Ming Yuchen instructed them in a low voice.

"Yes, sir."

"Yes," the man in black replied, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

This man in black was the secret guard that Ming Chengyan had specially assigned to him. Ever since Ming Yuchen had returned to the capital, Ming Chengyan was worried that the Duke Palaces' people were dangerous, and that the Duke Palaces wouldn't be able to protect him. Thus, he had specially given Ming Chengyan a few secret guards.

This was also the first time he'd used these hidden guards.

Ming Yuning's actions at the table today had completely angered him, he did not mind what his big brother did to him, but he would definitely not allow that fellow's idea of taking revenge, that was something that he protected the tip of his heart!

The night quietly fell, and a black silhouette quietly snuck into Ming Yuning's room. Not long after, the black figure carried a gunny sack on his shoulder, and agilely shuttled back and forth on the Prince's Mansion's tiled walls.

In the middle of the night, everyone was asleep except for the capital's floral buildings. Business was booming at the moment.

In the flower shop.

"Mom, tonight I will give you another person. My master has instructed me to make sure he enjoys tonight."

In a private room on the second floor, a man stood in a dimly lit area. His voice was slightly hoarse and unpleasant to hear.

"In that case, I'll have to take a look at him first …" The bawdy old bawd in fancy dress said while flinging her handkerchief.

"Please look, mother." When the man lifted the curtain of pearls, he saw a 'woman' lying on the soft surface of the bed. Her ink-like long hair was draped over the soft pillow, and her white dress fell halfway down her shoulders, revealing her snow-white skin.

"Aiyo, this is truly a beauty." The old procuress squinted and sized him up.

"If that's the case, then I'll have to trouble you, mother." The man pressed a silver ingot into the bawd's hand.

The old procuress had gotten the silver and picked up such a beauty for nothing. She laughed so hard that she could no longer see her eyes. She said, "Please go back and report to your master. He can rest assured that this lady will enjoy tonight …"

The man nodded in agreement and quickly left. The bawd did not even turn her head around, and she was gone. She had already gotten the silver, so she didn't care too much about it. She put the silver in her purse and walked in.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, this is truly a beauty."

The old procuress looked at the drowsy man on the bed, her chubby hand holding onto his chin. Her heart was filled with happiness.

Although this person's background was unknown, he was still more beautiful than the Courtesan Belle here. Today, they were going to make a huge profit!

"Men, help me get her out."

The old procuress called out to the people outside, and before long, two ladies with double bun entered the room and helped the person on the bed out.
