"Ah ~ ~" Ling Tian hugged his legs and jumped up as though he was about to explode. However, upon seeing Yu BingYan's angry look, he hurriedly tried to flatter her, "Hehe … this … err, sister, please continue, continue … ah ah ah … I'm listening, what you said is really interesting, really interesting … I'm listening …"
"Interesting your head!" Yu BingYan was unable to restrain her anger. With a heavy snort, she returned to her room with the atlas to cultivate. With such a rare opportunity, if she did not grasp it properly, how could she be worthy of the blessings of the heavens?
The blessings of the 'heavens'?! Looks like our main character has another nickname …
Being born into one of the largest families in the pugilistic world, yet being unable to cultivate her inner qi from a young age had always been the greatest pain in Yu BingYan's heart. It was also the reason why she felt that she could not raise her head high in her family. Now that she had such an exceptional inner qi diagram, Yu BingYan finally had hope! Although she was unhappy with Ling Tian's reaction, Yu BingYan knew that without Ling Tian, she would not have been able to obtain this diagram! Furthermore, Ling Tian did not know martial arts, so it was reasonable for him to not understand the effects of this secret manual.
In her anger, Yu BingYan stormed out of the room and did not notice Ling Chen's reaction. If she had noticed, she would definitely have thought to herself, What's wrong with sister Ling Chen? She seems to be sick, and why are her shoulders trembling?
Smoky Thea Tower, fragrant tea.
Heroes gather from all directions, heroes come from all directions!
Clouds dance on top of the tower, spirit spring below the stage,
Raising a cup to the moon, drunken beauty,
Drinking to my heart's content, my name spread far and wide,
The First Tower of the Sky Bearing Empire! Smoky Thea Tower!
Those who were able to dine at this restaurant were either from wealthy families or people of high status. The restaurant was surrounded by pavilions on all sides, and in the middle, there was a clear stream, a flowing spring, and a luxuriant rockery. Here and there, there were also dark green leaves, green grass, and fragrant flowers. The moment one stepped into the restaurant, it was as if they had suddenly entered a paradise on earth, a paradise!
Today, the Smoky Thea Tower was already under martial law. Soldiers in bright armor stood in neat rows. There were also many guards in various colors who were wandering around the area. Their eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.
Imperial Noble Consort Ling Ran held a banquet at Smoky Thea Tower! All of the madams of the various court officials would be present. This was an annual event in Sky Bearing and all of the madams who received the invitation felt extremely honored. At almost the same time, all of the madams had their own fashion shows in their own homes a few days before the Imperial Consort Banquet. Like a merry-go-round, they put on and changed out of different sets of clothes. Naturally, the husbands at home became the only audience and judges of each fashion show.
This led to the high officials having dark circles under their eyes when they attended court for two consecutive days. They looked at each other in the court like pandas having a meeting!
On the third floor of the Northern Tower, there were numerous delicate and pretty ladies who were rushing back and forth, constantly perfecting the furnishings and utensils in the private rooms. Although it was called a private room, the space inside was so big that it was comparable to a banquet hall. The space was so big that it could accommodate a hundred people at the same time without feeling cramped. This was the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion that Imperial Noble Consort Ling Ran specially arranged! Ever since Ling Ran set her sights on the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion five years ago and held her first banquet here, the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion had never been opened to the public! Apart from the annual 'Sky Bearing Fragrance Gathering'.
Opening the window, one could see the tranquil Jade Lake. A gentle breeze blew, and the water rippled slightly. The surrounding willows swayed in the wind, and the fragrance of flowers filled the air. When the wind blew into the pavilion, it brought with it the aura of heaven and earth. It was enough to make one forget about themselves.
In the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, there were already a few noblewomen sipping tea, sitting upright. All of them had a forced calm look on their faces. Their clothes were extravagant, and not a single strand of hair was out of place. This was the first time that they had received an invitation from Imperial Noble Consort Ling Ran, and they rushed here early in the morning. Their eyes were filled with pride, fear, anticipation, and unnaturalness. There were even two of them who were at a loss of what to do.
However, the ladies who were in charge of serving them did not have the slightest bit of contempt. All of the noblewomen who came to the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion today were the wives of big shots in the imperial court. For them to have the qualifications to come to the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion meant that the Sky Bearing Imperial Court had recognized their husband and family! This was an unparalleled honor!
The Smoky Thea Tower, the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, had already become the place that all the wives of the officials in the Sky Bearing Empire yearned for. It was also the most sacred place in the hearts of young ladies!
The Mistress of the Smoky Thea Tower, Xi Yan, had once said to her subordinates, "If there is a day that all of you are able to receive an invitation from Imperial Noble Consort Ling and enter the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, then as women, you would have reached the peak of your life!"
This sentence was more than enough to explain everything!
"Madam of General Shen has arrived …"
"Madam of Minister Wei has arrived …"
"Madam of Minister Su has arrived …"
"Madam of General Yang has arrived …"
...
Following the announcement, a few graceful and elegant noblewomen appeared one after another, entering the Smoky Thea Tower. Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion!
Every time a person entered, there would be a round of greetings. Those who had a good relationship with each other would naturally sit together and talk about the private matters of women.
"Do you guys think that Madam of General Ling will come this year?"
"I don't think so? I remember that year, her son Ling Tian was only eleven years old, right? He went to a brothel in the city to drink wine and even got into a fight over a prostitute. In the end, that person turned out to be Lord Li's grandson. During the gathering, Madam Yang brought up this matter. From then on, it seems that neither Madam Li nor anyone from the Ling House has come. "
Speaking of this matter, two women who were gathered together began to chuckle softly. One of them said, "Going to a brothel to drink wine at the age of eleven and even getting into a fight over a prostitute. This Young Master Ling is indeed a talent."
"Hehe … Did you know? I heard that this Young Master Ling started to flirt with maids when he was five years old. He was even seen by Imperial Noble Consort Ling and was beaten up by Lord Ling on the spot. "The other person said as if she was presenting a treasure.
"Five years old? Heavens! Hehe … It seems like … General Ling and Madam Ling … Hehe, their upbringing is really good. "The noblewoman's tone was filled with ambiguity.
"Hehehe … You idiot, what are you thinking? You only know how to be improper all day."
"I am speaking the truth. Hehe … Flirting with maids when he was five years old, going out to drink wine when he was eleven years old. Sigh! How did General Ling have such a son? His family is so unfortunate. He is a scum. Who knows how many daughters from good families have been ruined by his hands … If not for the Ling family's influence, this brat would have died eight times over. Those poor daughters of poor families … "A wave of sighs sounded.
If Ling Tian was here, he would definitely spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, "How did I harm a lady from a good family? This young noble is obviously still a 100% virgin. With two lifetimes added together, I can be considered an old virgin. All of you are just slandering me! Frost in June! A song heartbreaking, where can I find a soulmate in the world? "
"Just yesterday, this Prince Ling made another shocking move. At the North City Gate, he had a confrontation with Old Master Yang." At this point, she looked around and lowered her voice. "I heard that in front of thousands of people at the North City Gate, Prince Ling kept calling Yang KongQun an old bastard. In the end, he even extorted 200,000 taels of silver from Old Master Yang! That is called tyrannical! "
"Ah? Is there really such a thing? "
"It is absolutely true! Furthermore, it was clearly Ling Tian who was unreasonable first. He allowed his servants to provoke him, causing them to fight. After that, he twisted his words and twisted logic, slandering others. That kind of arrogance, we did not see it. "
"Whose family has such a good son? What a headache!"
"Sigh, that is true. The Ling family is really unfortunate to have such a rebellious son. No wonder Madam Ling does not have the face to see others. If I had such a son, I would have hung him up and given him a good beating. After that, I would lock him up at home so that he does not go out and embarrass himself. "
"Hehehe … sister, don't say that. That little tyrant of yours is quite famous in Sky Bearing, right? Even if he cannot be compared to Ling Tian, he is still quite unruly … "
"Idiot! You are not allowed to say that. See if I don't tear your mouth apart … "
"Hehehe … sister, spare me …"
"Shhh ~, Madam Wang is here."
"Madam Wang? The mother of one of the three young masters in the capital, Wang Bo? "
"Who else could it be other than her?"
"She doesn't look very happy. Her brows are even furrowed …"
"Of course she isn't happy. Have you heard that the second young master of the Nangong family, Nangong Lok, was killed? A few days before he was killed, he even had a conflict with Wang Bo. He even said that he wanted to marry the Nangong's daughter as his concubine. Now that the Yang Family has placed the Wang Family as the number one suspect, Madam Wang is probably in a terrible fix right now. How can she still be happy? "
"Haiz, that's true. In this day and age, rather than raising a silkpants son who doesn't live up to expectations, it's better to raise an obedient daughter. Just like my lass, she's extremely obedient …"
"Mmm, mmm. Right, sister, I heard that your lass is already at the age of budding? Haiz, that little brat of mine is still wandering around. However, his looks are extremely decent, and I guarantee that you will like him the moment you see him. Why don't our two families … "
"Cough cough cough … this matter, this … that … ah, who's here …"
Just as the madams in the building were getting more and more excited, the area in front of the Smoky Thea Tower suddenly quietened down, and there seemed to be the sound of orderly greetings. Following which, a loud and clear voice sounded, "The imperial concubine has arrived! The wife of General Ling has arrived!
