"Are you really considering the invitation your majesty?" Nandini asked as she pulled out some cloths that are made back in palace on purpose of using in Patchal.

"Why not? If we don't entangled with them then how would we will understand their mind?" He replied.

"That's not what I meant" Nandini sighed "it's already a first day but deputy minister didn't waste the time to invite. It can only be on purpose of flattering and make the situation to turned on favourable to him"

Manik laughed "I know. Since he is already digging it himself then we don't have to wait for long and could finish here fast and return back"

Nandini couldn't help but agree. It's true though. They really do need interaction with the deputy minister to reach their goal and since the other party was so eager to do it then it could be consider as spare from some efforts.

"Looks like the decree really unsettled the heart of deputy minister" Nandini replied.

"That's happens when the person is doing some illigal means"

After the awkward meeting with the deputy minister, before leaving he invited them for a dinner to his residence and since they are seeking for chance already immediately accepted.

"What does your majesty know about the residence?"

Manik drink the tea as he replied "it said he had two daughters but the current mistress was not the first one. The first mistress died after giving birth to the elder daughter. Then he married after a year and who gave birth to another daughter. In addition the deputy residence don't have any male heir"

"Then how come the deputy gained such high position like this? If he was really relying on court then it is not possible. There must be something" Nandini frowned.

"Of course there is" Manik put the tea cup and smiled "as you know a beauty is really dangerous weapon to use for. And coincidentally the eldest daughter is exceptionally beautiful"

Nandini turned look at him before raising her eyebrows "this is the most shameless act I have ever seen. Using his daughter to raise up his position. Deputy minister really does not know the meaning behind relationship"

"Everyone is not same and their thoughts also different" Manik said warmly.

Nandini walk towards him and handed some cloths "your majesty should prepare for the dinner. Looks like deputy minister is really eager to capture you with beauty" her tone filled with mocking.

Manik couldn't help but laugh loudly. He took the cloths then smirked "you are my wife, shouldn't you protect me?"

Nandini raised her eyebrows "does your majesty want me to deal with those young ladies?"

"It's your responsibility isn't it?" He smiled.

Nandini gave a poker face before turning away "since your majesty had dropped the responsibility then I do need to take care of it" then she walk towards the table and grabbed her clothing before walking towards the room while Ageratina followed quietly.

Manik looked at her back then smiled bright before retreating towards another room to change.

In the changing room Nandini removed  her upper cloths then frowned "those kind of leecher of a person to stick on someone until every drop of their blood is sucked off is showing his true colours even before it started" Nandini cursed directly.

If any other hears it they would faint on the spot as no one would think the empress who had elegant appearance would curse to this point. But for Ageratina who used to it didn't mind at all. Nandini seldom curse but when she curse she could make the listener bleed through their ear.
