Linzi City had a Yunwu Mountain that was as famous as the Dawn Mountain.
Jiang Wang, Xu Xiangqian, Li Longchuan, Gao Zhe, and Yan Fu were sitting in the pavilion. Outside the window, the clouds were swirling and changing into different shapes.
The Da Qi Palace had a stargazing tower, which was the tallest building in Linzi City.
The tallest mountain in Linzi City was generally known as the Yunwu Mountain.
Of course, in the entire Linzi City, be it buildings or mountains, could not be taller than the stargazing tower.
There was a scenery on the Yunwu Mountain known as the Yunhai Mirage.
On the first day of every month, the layers of clouds on the Yunwu Mountain would form illusionary pavilions that were extremely beautiful.
In the beginning, some people said that it was a hidden secret realm, some said that it was a natural phenomenon, and some even said that it was the reflection of an ancient celestial palace …
Of course, it was later proven that this so-called Yunhai Mirage was just a formation. The reason why the clouds on the Yunwu Mountain was not only because of the mountain, but also because of the formation.
This scenery was not natural, but man-made.
As a result, the Seven Sights of Linzi did not have this name.
The reason why the Yunwu Mountain was as famous as the Dawn Mountain was not because of the deeply carved Yunhai Mirage, but because of the place where they were sitting.
This pavilion belonged to the Tianxiang Cloud Pavilion, one of the four famous pavilions of Linzi.
The House of Red Sleeves had three cups of Eight Note Tea. The Tianxiang Cloud Pavilion only had one note, and the reason why it was as famous as the other pavilions was because of the two words "Tianxiang".
As one sat in the pavilion, one could smell the fragrance. This fragrance was not incense, nor was it the fragrance of cosmetics. It was the fragrance of the Yunwu Flower at the peak of the Yunwu Mountain. The fragrance was faintly discernible, but it made one yearn for it.
There was no need to elaborate on the story. After all, the entire Yunwu Mountain belonged to the Tianxiang Cloud Pavilion.
Of the four famous pavilions, the House of Red Sleeves and the Begonia Spring were located in the bustling areas. Only the Tianxiang Cloud Pavilion had a different idea. Its location could be considered remote, but it was also famous in Linzi. There would often be guests who would stay there for a few months just for peace and quiet.
What do you think about seeking peace and quiet in the brothel?
During this period of time, Jiang Wang had been very active in visiting the Four Famous Pavilions. Among the circle of the younger generation in Linzi, he had made a name for himself. Yan Fu treated money like water and would treat every banquet. As long as Xu Xiangqian heard that Yan Fu was there, he would definitely come along. Not only that, he even dragged Li Longchuan along. Of course, the word "forcefully" was debatable, and Li Longchuan had never been unwilling.
But unlike others, Jiang Wang was not here for the girls in the four famous restaurants, but for the Eight Tone Tea.
The eight notes of the Eight Tone Tea were: Bianzhong, Flute, Big Drum, Pipa, Qin, Se, Zhen, and Sheng.
Among them, the chime sound was Le Hou Zui, and the pipa sound was the Mistress Pipa. The Zither Music Tea was located in the Heavenly Fragrant Cloud Pavilion on Mount Yunwu. It was called Hidden Cloud.
A cup of floral tea and the sound of a zither lingered in the air. It was intoxicating, as if hidden in the clouds.
After sparring with Li Longchuan, Jiang Wang had tried to infuse sound into his technique and had made some breakthroughs.
During this period of time, Chung Geng Sheng was very busy, so he often asked Jiang Wang to make friends on his behalf. Making friends wasn't Jiang Wang's forte. He wasn't someone who knew how to make friends. But since he wanted to taste the Eight Tone Tea, he could just make do with it.
Yan Fu was a person who made people have a good impression of him. He was gentle, polite, and generous.
Gao Zhe was a different kind of person. He looked a little boorish, but his thoughts were very deep.
When he was with Jiang Wang and the others, he never mentioned his cousin who was lost in the Heavenly Secret Realm. It was unknown whether it was because of their bad relationship or because Xu Xiangqian had a falling out with Gao Jing outside the Heavenly Secret Realm.
After drinking Hidden Cloud, the group discussed going to the top of the mountain to admire the flowers.
Since they were on Mount Yunwu, there was no reason not to look at the Yunwu Flowers.
The Heavenly Fragrant Cloud Pavilion had a pavilion that led directly to the top of the mountain.
One side of the wooden pavilion was close to the mountain, while the other side was like a sea of clouds.
Although everyone's cultivation wasn't bad, no one spoiled the scenery and directly flew up the mountain.
When he was halfway there, a group of people in front of him, like stars surrounding the moon, walked towards him, escorting a young man.
It was autumn, so Mount Yunwu was a little cold. But those who could come here to enjoy the scenery probably had some cultivation, so they wore light clothes.
Only this young man was wrapped in a thick mink coat. His face was pale, and he looked a little weak.
But in the group behind him, Jiang Wang saw a familiar face — Zhang Yong.
He was no longer young and immature like he was outside the Heavenly Secret Realm. He was dressed appropriately and had a strong aura. His gaze was no longer evasive. Instead, it was scrutinizing and a little gloomy. When he saw Jiang Wang, he just nodded slightly as a greeting.
Then the identity of this mink coat young man was obvious — Da Qi's Eleventh Prince, Jiang Wuqi. He was also one of the strongest competitors for the throne.
"Your Highness."
Beside him, Li Longchuan, Yan Fu, and the others all greeted him. These people were either rich or noble, so they didn't need to bow when they saw a prince.
They just pulled Jiang Wang to the side to show respect.
Even if it was only this level of respect, not all princes and princesses could enjoy it.
If it was Chung Geng Sheng and the Fourteenth Prince, Jiang Wuyong, who was opposite him, they would try it.
Jiang Wuqi's future was bright, and he had the possibility of ascending to the throne. Only then would he be worthy of the respect of these princes with boundless prospects.
Da Qi's culture was quite tolerant. Even if he was a prince, it wasn't rude to come to a brothel like the Heavenly Fragrant Cloud Pavilion.
Especially people like Li Longchuan, Yan Fu, and Gao Zhe. They were often seen by princes and princesses, so it wasn't strange. If they met, they would greet each other and go their own way.
The real princes of the top families wouldn't get involved in the fight for the throne. No matter who ascended to the throne in Da Qi, they couldn't leave their families. Only people like Zhang Yong, whose family was ruined, needed to fight for the merit of ascending to the throne and seek to recover.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Wuqi didn't have the intention to leave. Instead, he stopped in his tracks.
After greeting the princes one by one, he looked at Jiang Wang and said, "Your bearing is extraordinary, and the sword at your waist looks like a famous weapon. You must be Chung Geng Sheng's right-hand man, the man of Qingyang Town of Da Qi?"
Jiang Wang bowed slightly and saluted, "Jiang Wang greets Your Highness."
Jiang Wuqi coughed twice and said, "You've done meritorious deeds for Da Qi in the land of the sun, and I respect that. But in the south of Chiyang, you publicly humiliated my Fourteenth Brother. As his brother, it's fine if I don't see you, but since I've seen you, I have to show my appreciation. "
"I deserve to be rewarded for raising Da Qi's prestige. But I have to protect the dignity of the imperial family. "He looked at Jiang Wang and said," What do you think? "
His words were clear and straightforward, and it was difficult for people to be angry at him for finding trouble with him.
"Since we're on the battlefield, there's no right or wrong, only life and death, victory and defeat. I killed some people in the land of the sun and shed some blood. Even if I've done some meritorious deeds, His Majesty has already rewarded me. There's no need for Your Highness to reward me again. "
Jiang Wang looked straight into Jiang Wuqi's eyes without dodging, "As for the matter in the south of Chiyang, there's a public opinion. Your Highness shouldn't be unaware. I've never had the heart to humiliate others, but those who humiliate others will be humiliated by others. "
His words were neither servile nor overbearing, and Li Longchuan and Yan Fu secretly nodded.
Jiang Wuqi directly said to him, "I'm a person who rewards and punishes clearly. I want to reward you, but I also want to punish you. Are you willing to accept this? "
Jiang Wang replied Jiang Wuqi, "I don't need you to reward me, that's what the Emperor should do. As for punishment, I didn't do anything wrong, so it's up to you!"
