"You can’t do this."
Murong Yan sighed softly. She knew very well that in Lin Chen’s heart, she couldn’t compare to Senior Sister Jiang. If she were to express her feelings for Lin Chen in the Imperial Garden in front of everyone, the emperor would definitely summon Lin Chen, or discuss this matter with Liang.
With Lin Chen’s potential, he was qualified to beco the Prince Consort of the Yan Kingdom.
But doing so would be equivalent to forcing Lin Chen to choose between herself and Jiang Qing.

Imperial Garden.
With the entrance of the Fourth and Fifth Princesses of the Yan Kingdom, the atmosphere reached its peak.
The Fourth Princess was already married and had co to host the banquet. Lin Chen glanced at the two princesses, whose appearances surpassed those of the royal family’s daughters, but were still sowhat lacking compared to Murong Yan.
"As expected of the Yan Kingdom’s princesses, this Fifth Princess’s beauty and grace are truly unparalleled."
Su Zhe listened with disdain on his face to a senior brother behind him, admitting that the Fifth Princess was indeed beautiful, but still incomparable to the Sixth Princess.
Only when you see the Sixth Princess will you understand what a true peerless beauty is.
"You are all young geniuses from various countries, and I offer this toast to you on behalf of my father."
Fourth Princess Murong Shuang raised her glass, but upon hearing this, Su Zhe frowned. The banquet had begun without the presence of the Sixth Princess?
He had co specifically for the Sixth Princess. If she didn’t make an appearance, what was the point?
"Fourth Princess!"
Su Zhe spoke directly, interrupting the Fourth Princess’s toast.
"I am Su Zhe of the Su Family from the Han Kingdom. May I ask why your country’s Sixth Princess has not co?"
Su Zhe’s words were blunt, but everyone present understood that he had co for the Sixth Princess.
Upon hearing the ntion of the Sixth Princess, Lin Chen raised his eyes to glance in Su Zhe’s direction.
"There is only one Su Family in the Han Kingdom, which is that of the State Preceptor’s lineage. The Su Family of the Han Kingdom is second only to the Royal Family. Three generations of State Preceptors co from the Su Family."
To this, ng Xing dutifully explained Su Zhe’s background to Lin Chen.
In fact, Lin Chen didn’t need the introduction since Murong Yan’s booklet already contained an introduction of Su Zhe’s background.
The grandson of the current State Preceptor of the Han Kingdom and the current number one on the Earth List.
A month younger than himself.
"My sixth sister is feeling unwell and cannot attend the banquet. Is there sothing Young Master Su wishes to discuss?"
Murong Shuang hesitated before responding.
Upon hearing Murong Shuang’s answer, Su Zhe replied, "I t the Sixth Princess once last year. She invited to visit the Yan Kingdom and promised to personally guide in tasting the local delicacies. It’s unfortunate that she’s unwell now; what a coincidence."
Su Zhe’s response sparked a wave of speculation among those present. Did the Sixth Princess invite Su Zhe to visit the Yan Kingdom?
From his words, it seed the Sixth Princess had an interest in Su Zhe.
The social status of the Su Family of the Han Kingdom and a princess of the Yan Kingdom was indeed a good match.
At the scene, only three people looked rather peculiar: Fourth Princess Murong Shuang, Murong Xin, and Lin Chen.
Murong Yan unwell?
If Murong Yan was unwell, then who had he just seen?
Murong Yan’s identical twin sister or brother?
The odd expressions of the princesses, Murong Shuang and Murong Xin, were because they also knew the truth; their sixth sister wasn’t unwell. She simply didn’t want to co. Although they didn’t know why their sister didn’t want to co, they had just provided an excuse on her behalf.
The princess had already seen the list of disciples from various nations’ Martial Arts Academies. If the Sixth Sister had truly intended to personally guide Su Zhe in experiencing the Yan Kingdom’s delicacies, it was impossible for her to refuse to co upon seeing Su Zhe’s na on the list.

"That Su Zhe is spouting nonsense!"
In the adjacent side hall, Murong Yan, with an icy expression, listened to the palace maid report on the events in the Imperial Garden. Last year, she had visited the Han Kingdom to celebrate her aunt’s birthday and had indeed t Su Zhe. She had even extended a general invitation to visit the Yan Kingdom.
However, what she said was rely polite words, and definitely not directed solely at Su Zhe, but rather at the Han Kingdom princess hosting her and everyone present.
She had certainly not expressed a personal wish to guide Su Zhe in tasting the Yan Kingdom’s delicacies.
"Help change my clothes; I need to go to the Imperial Garden!"
Su Qin was taken aback upon hearing this. She then tried to persuade, "Princess, the Fourth Princess just said you were unwell. Going to the Imperial Garden now might not be very appropriate."
"Fourth Sister said I was feeling a bit under the weather, just a slight chill. As a princess of the Yan Kingdom, am I not even able to overco a slight chill?"
Su Qin: ...
