982 Chapter 982 “Tea Party Invitation“
"Well let’s see what’s the invitation is about first" Li Shi Ying suddenly realize that she loses composure. The girl coughed to hide her embarrassment for being too excited over a lantern. She then started to read the invitation.
2 minutes later...
"This isn’t a banquet invitation from the emperor. It’s...a tea party invitation from the empress..." Li Shi Ying gulped nervously. For the empress to personally invited her to her tea party...something wasn’t right.
"Mother did? A tea party held by the empress can only be attended by ladies. Those who are invited are usually ladies from high-ranked nobles. I am afraid that..." even Long Ao Zhen immediately realized what’s wrong with the invitation.
The empress must have known about Li Shi Ying arrival in the higher realm thus she wanted to meet the girl and maybe...put her into her place?
"This tea party isn’t simple. The empress will surely plan something. No men can come to the party it’s, even more, a good plan to separate you and me" Li Shi Ying gripped the invitation card with a gloomy face.
The empress would surely take this chance to bully her. She often saw the drama in the palace and it was really cruel. Especially dispute between the ladies. It has always been dangerous!
"Don’t go. I’m afraid my mom will do something to you. I’ll be honest. She really hates human so she automatically hates you too" Long Ao Zhen grabbed Li Shi Ying’s hand as if didn’t want to let her go.
Maybe they should make the excuse of Li Shi Ying being sick or something to avoid the tea party. Not to mention that there would be other ladies there as well...all of them would gang up against Li Shi Ying!
He’s sure Yan Fenghuang would be there too. No male guards were allowed to enter the tea party only female guards or maidservants could but Li Shi Ying....
She didn’t have a female guard nor a maidservant. Her beasts might be able to serve her but they were just a sacred beast. In front of those dragons...they might be crushed easily.
"I think I have to go. You know sooner or later I’ll have to meet your mother so...why not use this chance to win her heart? I’m sure gifts and such will give her a good impression about me"
Li Shi Ying shook her head gently. This event also happened in the novel and Meng Yue Ming accepted the invitation. She used her knowledge from her world to prepare something incredible for the empress.
The girl didn’t back down just because the empress didn’t like her and in the end, the Empress slowly liked her. The empress then reluctantly bless her relationship with Long Ao Zhen.
If that’s the case then she can’t refuse the invitation. She might be hated more than now. There’s no other way than charging right ahead!
"But what if Yan Fenghuang and the other ladies bully you there...my mom will also make things difficult for you!" Long Ao Zhen insist on not letting Li Shi Ying go. He wouldn’t be able to bear the sadness if he found out his own mother harm the one he loved.
"I have Nessie with me. We will be alright, not to mention I’m also a translator right? Did you forget about this? The ladies and the empress will be in a human form when they attend the party so it’s easy for me to curse them. I’ll be alright!"
Li Shi Ying patted her chest while thinking of what gifts should she brought aside of that special souvenir she got from the lower realm. She thought of bringing a snack that never been made in this world but maybe it still wasn’t enough...
Should she make a good curse? Her curse was often associated with bad things but actually, it’s not all used for bad things. For example, when she cursed Long Ao Zhen to stay alive, that was a good curse, wasn’t it?
"...Nessie is strong indeed" Long Ao Zhen paused a bit knowing that Li Shi Ying had Nessie to accompany her. That guy was in a pet form now no one would suspect him to be a great deal. Aside from that his bunny still had a talisman, curse, and the shadow guards.
Whenever she was in danger her beasts could at least helped her a bit too. Maybe he should let her go?
"That’s why let me go attend the tea party okay? If you give me permission I’ll immediately prepare the clothing for tomorrow as well as all the gifts I need to prepare" Li Shi Ying had thought to make sweets.
What sweets they didn’t have in this era? Macaroon! She could ask Jiu Wei to make a bunch of macaroons right away. The ingredients should be easy to find too.
"Okay, I’ll let you go as long as you bring Nessie with you. As for the gifts I’ll help to prepare it" Long Ao Zhen sighed. He finally reluctantly let Li Shi Ying do whatever she wanted.
But at least he should also prepare the clothing for Li Shi Ying so that the ladies there won’t look down on her. Let’s wear one gifted by father!
"Okay, I’ll go make the sweets for tomorrow. Help me arranging gifts for your mother and for the ladies as well okay? I don’t know what they like after all" Li Shi Ying stood up from the stone chair before she hugged Long Ao Zhen.
