Enchantress Amongst Alchemists Ghost King is Wife

Mu Ru Yue’s eyebrows raised as she swept a gaze through the crowd. Her gaze then landed on an enraged face as she commented, “Liu Yu?”

Liu Yu had changed tremendously since the last time they met several days ago.

Her face was no longer as radiant and glossy. Her complexion was yellow instead. Her hair was as dry and rough like dried grass. She was so skinny to the point that she might be blown away by the wind at any moment. Yet, her eyes were filled with malice.

Mu Ru Yue didn’t expect Liu Yu would attend tonight’s banquet. But it was obvious that her days weren’t good. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be in such a sorry state.

“Cough cough,” The Emperor coughed drily before he continued, “Since everyone is here, I will like to introduce a couple of people to you.”

He turned his head toward Ouyang Yun Jin and Ouyang Jing upon saying that and introduced with a smile, “The two of them are the young master of the Ouyang family, Ouyang Yun Jin, and Lord Ouyang Jing respectively.”

‘Ouyang family?’

The crowd was startled as they lifted their heads to look at those two.

Some people started to be stirred up in this moment.

Even though those two ages were rather high, they were still handsome, full of vitality and had a great grandeur, especially Ouyang Yun Jin. He had a sword-like brows and had an icy gaze. His pair of eyes looked strict. If he was slightly younger, he would definitely win a lot of young ladies’ hearts.

Of course, there were several maidens that were still willing to be their concubines due to their powerful family background…

“There are also,” The Emperor’s gaze shifted to Dongfang Jun and continued to introduce, “This is the young master of the Dongfang family and the lady beside him is his fiancee.”

Some girls shifted their gazes from Ouyang Yun Jin to Dongfang Jun’s handsome face upon the Emperor’s introductions.

No matter if it was age or appearance, Dongfang Jun was superior than Ouyang Yun Jin.

It was a pity that such an outstanding man already had a fiancee, shattering a lot of maiden’s hearts…

Dongfang Jun seemed to not notice those heartbroken gazes. He just raised his head to chug a bowl of wine into his stomach. He looked gloomily at Mu Ru Yue with a cold gaze…

But he couldn’t do or say anything as Nangong Zi Lan was by his side! He also definitely couldn’t make her notice his love affairs with Xiao Yue before she married him!

Mu Ru Yue smirked as she received Dongfang Jun’s sinister gaze without fear.

“I wonder if he will be this calm if he were to know what matters I had sent Xiao Bai and Xiao Yue out to do…’

The Emperor frowned, but agreed, “Empress, you can say what suggestions you have.”

The Empress smiled elegantly and suggested, “Your servant has a nephew that hasn’t married. I have taken a fancy to Lady Mu. How about bethrothing her to your servant’s nephew as his wife? I don’t think I will be dishonoring Lady Mu with this suggestion.”

She smirked slightly as she said that. She had a really graceful smile, but her eyes were sinisterly cold…

She had saw that His Majesty was seeing Mu Ru Yue in a different kind of gaze previously.

‘Can it be that His Majesty wants Mu Ru Yue to enter the harem? I definitely won’t allow it. I must make the first move!’

The Empress had really misunderstood the Emperor this time. He was just showing Mu Ru Yue a cordial smile due to her relationship with the Ouyang family. The Ouyang family held superior powers after all.
