"I'm sure your brother did not tell him anything about this new arrangement since he is still recuperating from his injuries," Princess Lingchen said . "Why don't you keep this a secret from him until he reports back to his duty? Just pretend that you did not hear anything from me . "

Her lips curved upwards into a smile . "I will . "

Jiang Mingyue knew that his job would make it harder for her to see him as frequently as she wanted to even after their marriage .

This arrangement sounded perfect . Even though the two of them will be busy with their duty, at least they will see each other every day . This arrangement may last for only a short period, but she will take what she can get .

Mingyue looked up at the princess again . "You said that the invitation had been sent out," she said . She watched the princess nodded and continued, "Do you know anything about the invited princes? Any of them that caught your interest?"

Princess Lingchen waved her hands dismissively . "I don't . My mother sent a file of the candidates' profile . But I haven't look at them . According to my maidservant, seven invitations have been sent out . "

"Seven . That's great . Seven is a lucky number . "

The Princess chuckled inwardly . "Seven was never my lucky number . " Her voice was a whisper .

She dreaded the upcoming banquet with the unknown princes . She knew that when the princes decided to accept the invitation, every one of them will come with a motive . Each and everyone is seeking for something to gain from this marriage while she aims to stabilize her position as the next heir to the throne .

"Let me look at the candidate list . "

The Princess frowned at her request .

But soon, she raised a hand and soon, her maidservant, Ah Zhen approached her . She whispered something to the Ah Zhen before the maidservant left the room .

A minute later, Ah Zhen with a stack of paper in her hand . She handed the profiles to Mingyue and retreated from the room .

Mingyue browsed through the papers . There was a drawing of the prince, their biodata and achievement . She looked at each portray and read the information on the princes with concentration .

Once she was done looking through all the candidates, Mingyue glanced at the princess . She appeared calm as she took a sip from her tea, but Mingyue knew that the princess was anxious to know what was her opinion on the princes .

"What is it?" Princess Lingchen watched her with worry .

"The princes," she gave her a teasing smile . "They're exceptional . "

Princess Lingchen rolled her eyes . "Of course . They are the candidates of my future husband . Naturally, His Majesty would choose the best for me . Tell me . What do you think about them?"
