Chapter 2215: Chapter 2212: A Visit

Nowadays, the Little Prince is not on good terms with the Elder Princess.

Recently, he even got involved in the Southern Border incident.

Not only was the Elder Princess called into the palace for a reprimand, but even the Little Prince was grounded.

Currently, the Elder Princess has no intention of leaving the palace, seemingly planning to retreat to a life of chanting prayers, closing her doors to visitors.

This time, the Chu family’s banquet.

Ye Muyu also sent an invitation to the Elder Princess’s residence.

But as the Princess’ Mansion did not send any visiting cards beforehand, it seems they won’t attend.

In this situation, the Huo family has been keeping a low profile lately, trying not to cause any disturbances.

Additionally, the Huo family’s status has declined over time, as their most noteworthy achievement was the prematurely deceased emperor’s son-in-law, who ironically, despite becoming emperor’s son-in-law, lost his prospects.

However, they still have ties to the Royal Family through marriage.

The younger generation with any success in the Huo family managed to progress smoothly.

Unfortunately, the Huo family hasn’t produced any talented youths.

As a result, they’ve been somewhat neglected in the capital these years.

Ye Muyu thought for a while, if she remembered correctly, Huo Ning is a member of the Huo family’s second household, essentially the emperor’s son-in-law’s niece.

"Pay more attention to her." Ye Muyu thought for a moment, given the treatment Huo Ning receives in the Huo family, it’s likely that the lady of the second household is difficult to deal with. There’s a need to use both kindness and authority to prevent them from causing trouble on her grounds.

To avoid causing unnecessary problems.

"Alright, I don’t know if Huo Ning will come, Uncle Lu is really useless, it’s been so long, and he hasn’t proposed yet." Chu Ziluo sighed lightly.

Ye Muyu looked a bit odd, "How do you know about their affair?"

"Last time, when I came out of the bathhouse, I happened to see Uncle Lu with Huo Ning dressed as a man. Seeing Uncle Lu so awkward, I couldn’t help but pay more attention." Saying this, she couldn’t help but blink mischievously.

Ye Muyu listened, unable to help but laugh, "Haha, if you tell Uncle Lu he’s awkward, he’ll definitely give you a sharp-tongued comeback."

"That’s why I say he’s awkward. If he likes her, he should find a way to marry her. Otherwise, if someone else gets there first, he’ll be left crying." Chu Ziluo shook her head seriously, "He’s already an adult, yet still not honest in his feelings."

Ye Muyu knocked her on the head, "You, so mature at such a young age, don’t suddenly bring home a son-in-law someday."

Chu Ziluo rubbed her head, thought seriously for a while, and only then said, "Probably not."

Ye Muyu: "..." Daughter, saying it like that really doesn’t reassure me.

The two exchanged humorous banter.

Not feeling bored at all.

However, Ye Muyu had to entertain Madam Huo and several other Ministry of Rites officials’ wives.

Chu Ziluo then went with the housekeeper to arrange matters for the banquet three days later.

Madam Huo was urged to come by her old man back home.

Upon entering, she held Ye Muyu’s hand and complained, "My old man keeps urging me to go out, afraid I’ll be late, saying I must ask you if there are any other books on phonetics."

"And those overseas scripts, surely they can be learned too?"

Ye Muyu invited the ladies in.

She smiled and said, "Overseas scripts, actually, are like our Great Chu’s characters, they all have learning methods, just that no one systematically studied them before, hence unknown."

"But as for the specific learning methods, I can’t confirm, it’s up to all the gentlemen to research together. When you return to your mansions, remember to urge your gentlemen."

Several Ministry of Rites officials’ wives heard this, and indeed showed some curiosity.
