The first brother was in charge of the legal side of things so he was in charge of helping out the company if they ever need legal help. So the first and second also had a friendly relationship. Despite not having a seemingly big part in the system, as a mere assistant, Rong Jian who was also adopted, had quite a good relationship with the family too.

"It is my honor to meet the three brother-in-laws." Shen Tianyu responded as she bowed slightly while still sitting in her chair. The Empress had already said she could take it easy so she didn't want to get up unless she had to.

"Oooh! Did you hear that?! She called me brother in law!" Kuian Mingi clutched his chest as he swooned.

"Idiot. She called all three of us, not just you. Are you going senile already?" Kuian Jingguo scolded.

"Who cares about such small technicalities? She called all three of us, then that means she called me too. Stop picking at the details." Kuian Mingli waved him off.

"Now, now you two. We're all brother in laws, no need to fight over it." Kuian Zihao tried to calm down the two before they got into a fight.

"Don't get conceited. You guys are only brothers-in-law." Rong Jian smirked as he looked down at them from his seat next to Shen Tianyu.

"Why you little-" Qiao Wangye was about to hurl some insult at his fourth brother when a calm voice cut in.

"But anyways, it's surprising that the well-known womanizer, Qiao Wangye is given the name Mingli... is he considered the disappointment of the family then?" Shen Tianyu not only thrust a knife but also twisted it in the man's gut.

Qiao Wangye, who was about to speak further immediately screeched to a halt and spit out a mouthful of blood at hearing her words. "How could you...attack my weak spot like this... and even buried it in salt... how unfair..." He reached a hand out towards the girl but it then fell back as he went into a dead faint.

No one went to check on him, not even the servants in the room, probably because the people in power there didn't seem to bother with even moving a muscle to check either. Everyone went back to conversing as if it was an everyday occurrence. Seeing that the others were leaving him be and the fact that the blood he spat wasn't enough to threaten his life, Shen Tianyu left him be also. As the group was talking, he soon woke up and threw a small fit about them leaving him on the ground and not even calling fro a physician to check on him. But since everyone ignored him, he soon settled back down again. While they were still enjoying their conversation, Rong Jian brought up their engagement and asked for his family's blessings and recognition, which they all easily gave. And just like that, the two were officially engaged, though the imperial announcement won't happen until later.


The couple stayed with the royal family to eat lunch before they headed out again, the Empress kept telling Rong Jian to treat her kindly since he found someone he likes and almost gave a whole lecture on love and relationships right there before the Emperor stopped her and told her to let them enjoy their little couple time. It wouldn't be long until the other noble families find out Rong Jian brought back a woman and by then, they'll have to stay cooped up in the Zhu Wangfu even if they didn't want to. The Empress let them go and Rong Jian ordered the carriage to be brought back to the residence, empty. He told the servants to inform the Head Steward that he was going to show his wife around the capital before he headed back, to which Shen Tianyu interjected that they were not husband and wife yet. This then devolved into more flirting from Rong Jian's part and Shen Tianyu just gave up on reprimanding him as they started walking on the main road. After the two were out of sight, the servants who were tasked with the message were still standing as still as stone, watching the pair.

"Is that still our Zhu Wangye? Are you sure it isn't an impostor?" One of them finally worked up the nerve to ask.

"Maybe he's been possessed?" A second one responded with another question.

"But wasn't he handling work as usual since he got back? And how could the royal family not know if he is indeed an impostor?" A third one voiced his opinion.

"But this is our Zhu Wangye! The one who wouldn't even give women an extra glance okay?! The Prince of Ice, as the woman call him! And the Prince of Erectile Dysfunction by the men!" The first one started pulling his hair as if he was having the biggest crisis of his life.

"Shut up you idiot! What if Wangye heard you?! You shouldn't say the last sentence even if you were threatened!" The third one smacked the first in the head.

The carriage driver sighed. "Drop it. Let's just do as we're told, no need to think so much."

"O-oh. You're right. Let's go back." The first servant calmed down somewhat but still looked like he was shown a different world.

As for the two female maids that came with the group, they obediently stayed behind and returned to the estate with the other servants, not commenting on a single thing.

"So? What are your country's specialties?" Shen Tianyu asked as they walked side by side.

"Hm, hm... there's a really famous restaurant called...uh, what was it... Alstro... Alstroemeria House! Geez, that name is hard to remember but the food there is exotic and delicious! Um, there's also the hunting grounds, which can be boring sometimes but it's fun watching others compete!" Rong Jian told her proudly.

'Alstroemeria House? Why does it sound familiar? Ah! Isn't that the trial restaurant that Zuo Xichen was so excited to make?! Eh, that's a landmark here now? No wait, why would I even want to visit a subordinate's restaurant like a tourist attraction?' Shen Tianyu thought when she heard the name.

"Uwah... you really are a rich kid, huh..." She said when the other paused. "I was going to ask about street food or something. Those kinds of thing is basically the same for all nobility everywhere you know? Only the people's culture is different, that's what's really worth seeing."
