Beautiful! Breathtaking beauty. That was Han Li's first impression when she entered the venue.
For the hemisphere where the venue was located, it was nighttime when she entered. While still in the air, she was greeted by a visual impact from the ground.
The colorful sea gave people a hallucinatory feeling, and the sea wrapped around a colorful continent.
In the shallow sea, there were all sorts of fluorescent algae, and on the continent, there were all sorts of fluorescent vegetation. It was like a fantastical world, and looking down from the night sky, it was so beautiful that it could break one's heart. The entire terrain was like a tear dropped by a goddess.
Descending from the sky, she landed on a colorful mountain peak. Han Li slowly turned around, her eyes blurred as she looked at the beautiful fluorescent plants around her. The dazzling flowers made people want to get close to them.
This area was designated for the representatives of the major sects to live in. In front of her was a pavilion made of special crystals that complemented the flowers and plants. Originally, the mountain peak was half submerged in the sea. The mountain peak was an island, but now it was all land.
All the buildings in the Jinxiu Territory were in a similar situation. They were all built by the Heavenly Court. With so many nobles involved, someone proposed it in the imperial court, and it was passed without any resistance.
And before the Peerless Society started, someone came to clean all the buildings, waiting for the arrival of the nobles.
"We're here!" The general who led the way reminded, then said to the servant at the door, "This noble guest was brought to see Mr. Huangfu by Governor Hua."
The servant thanked him, then cupped his hands at Han Li and said, "Mr. First is waiting for you. Please follow me."
Inside a pavilion, Huangfu Yan was talking to a few descendants of the Huangfu family. Huangfu Jun? Y was among them. Huangfu Yan was her grandfather.
Han Li and her servant were led in. Huangfu Yan turned around and saw a smile, then waved her over.
Han Li bit her lips, her eyes complicated. So this man had already arrived, but he did not come to pick her up. He caused her to be humiliated in the inspection area. What did he think she was?
But she quickly put on a smile, walked to Huangfu Yan, and half-knelt.
Huangfu Yan stood up, grabbed her hand, and introduced her to his descendants, "Han Li, you can call me Great Aunt from now on."
Hearing this, Han Li felt a little better. Although he didn't give her a title, introducing her in front of her family was undoubtedly a form of recognition.
The descendants of the Huangfu Family looked at each other in dismay. Many of them had heard of this woman before. She seemed to have a flawed birth, and the family head didn't allow her to enter the Huangfu Family. She had always been raised by the head of the family. She hadn't even married into the family, so how could they call her Great Aunt? It seemed like the First Master still wanted to bring this woman into the family.
However, everyone still cupped their fists and bowed. "Greetings, Great Aunt!" Y is included.
Han Li bowed slightly in return.
"Jun? Huangfu Yan looked at Huangfu Jun. Y waved his hand.
Huang Fujun? Y immediately stepped forward to listen to the instructions. Huang Fuyan said, "She doesn't have many acquaintances here. You have a wide network. When I'm not around, keep her company."
"Yes, sir!" Y felt sick in his heart, but on the surface, he still smiled and agreed. He even smiled back at Han Li.
Her grandfather's words carried a lot of weight in the family. She was now the regional manager of the Great Ensemble's shop. If she wanted to take over her mother's position, she would need her grandfather's full support.
In fact, she herself didn't think that there was much hope for her to take over her mother's position. There was no other reason. Although the women of the Huangfu Family didn't marry out of the family, there were some positions that could be given to their daughters, but not their granddaughters. There was still a difference between direct relatives and distant relatives. Although her mother had been trying her best to fight for her, she really didn't think that there was much hope. The position of regional deacon was probably the limit of her power in the Huangfu Family. Any higher and she would probably be given the position of a family steward.
She grumbled in her heart. It had been a long time since she came to the Peerless Society. Her grandfather suddenly asked her to come along, and it turned out that he was preparing for this woman.
Handing Han Li over to Huangfu Jun. Y, and the other descendants of the family felt uncomfortable. For Han Li to be brought here, it was obvious that she was favored by the First Master. Getting closer to her would definitely be beneficial to their position in the family. However, Huangfu Jun? With Y's conditions, the First Master could not possibly hand over his charming lover to another man, right? Including Huangfu Jun? Y was also an old lady in the family who had never married and knew many people. Accompanying her was just right, leaving others speechless.
Someone from the family meeting Huangfu Jun? Y had always refused to marry, and they still thought that Huangfu Jun? Y was willing to go to such lengths to take over her mother's position. Who would know about Huangfu Jun? Y's heart was filled with bitterness. Now that Miao Yi was in a high position and had control over the military, was it better for her to be Miao Yi's woman? One word from Miao Yi could cause the entire Great Ensemble's shop on Sky Street to suffer heavy losses. Unfortunately, her relationship with Miao Yi could not be made public.
After a brief briefing, Huangfu Yan brought Han Li to his room. As for what the two of them were going to do, it was not the concern of the juniors.
After the juniors dispersed, Huangfu Jun returned to his room. Y received a message from Xingling that a friend had invited him. Looking at Han Li's charm, even a woman's heart would be moved. He guessed that his grandfather did not need him to accompany Han Li that night, so he went out to find a friend.
The family of Marshal Mao Lu's residence had arrived a day ago. The Pang family's residence was naturally in a good location.
In the pavilions, hundreds of people from the Pang family gathered together. Most of them were women.
Although Pang Guan also had dozens of concubines, Cha Ruyan was more domineering. She could take a concubine, but she would take care of the childbirth, not giving other women a chance. Pang Guan's two sons and two daughters were all Cha Ruyan's, so Cha Ruyan's position in the other family was very stable. If any woman dared to threaten her position, they would have to ask her children first.
Other than Pang Guan's women and daughters, they were also the women of Pang Guan's sons. Although the two sons did not take a wife, they still took concubines.
Cha Ruyan sat high up, accompanied by her two daughters on her left and right.
Looking around, they were all women, not a single man. Cha Ruyan could not help but feel a little depressed. Her two sons were not willing to come and had no interest in this kind of play. They had long become old and as boring as their father.
There was one thing that had to be admitted. Although she, Cha Ruyan, was not very reliable, her children were all good. They were the best among the children of the rich and powerful. They had long been helping Pang Guan. One was a commander with real power, the other was a commander with real power. Moreover, they all had part-time jobs by Pang Guan's side and were quite capable. This was something that Pang Guan was proud of, so he did not have to worry about not having a successor.
Sometimes, even Pang Guan himself was puzzled. With his wife's virtue, how could she train her children to be so strong? He felt gratified and could only think that it was all because of his inheritance.
Little did he know that his own children were deeply aware of their mother's shortcomings. They used their mother as a negative example and forced her to do so.
At this time, Pang Yuniang was slightly unrestrained. She was even drinking to her heart's content. She was a little drunk.
Cha Ruyan tilted her head and took away the wine pot in her hand. She stared at Pang Yuniang angrily and shouted, "Is there a girl like you?"
Pang Yuniang burped and looked at her mother with a smile.
"You …" Cha Ruyan wanted to scold her, but finally, a look of pity flashed across her face. In the end, she did not scold her. A good daughter had become like this. She could also understand her daughter's depression. It was all Wang Lao's fault.
"Mother!" Pang Xiaoxiao pulled her sleeve and comforted her.
Looking back at her younger daughter, Cha Ruyan was gratified. She found that her younger daughter was like a different person after getting married. She was glowing and became more beautiful. It could be seen that the cheap son-in-law did not mistreat her daughter.
The only thing that made her heart itch was that she could not show off to outsiders that the world-famous Niu Youde was her son-in-law. But thinking about it, it did not matter now. Her daughter was still a concubine. When Niu Youde became the marshal and her daughter became the official wife, it would be more glorious to announce it.
Perhaps someone thought of something. Suddenly, someone came to report, "Madam, Lord Wang Lao wants to see you!"
The noisy scene suddenly became quiet. Everyone secretly looked at Pang Yuniang. On the contrary, Pang Yuniang looked indifferent.
Cha Ruyan's face instantly became cold. But it was not good to ignore them.
After a while, a burly man with a beard strode in. This man was Wang Lao. There were more than ten men behind him. They were all generals under Wang Lao's command.
As soon as Wang Lao entered the attic, he immediately looked at Pang Yuniang. When he walked to the center, his eyes fell on Cha Ruyan. He cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Madam!"
Cha Ruyan said with a cold face, "What's the matter?"
Wang Lao smiled and said, "I heard that Madam is here. How can I be impolite? It turns out that Eldest Miss is also here. Greetings, Wang Lao. "He specially cupped his hands to Pang Yuniang.
Pang Yuniang, who was slightly drunk, nodded.
Cha Ruyan said coldly, "Greetings, everyone here are women. It's not convenient to keep you here."
Wang Lao looked at the women around him. It was indeed so. He immediately cupped his hands again and said, "Excuse me!" Before leaving, he was still a little unwilling to move his eyes away from Pang Yuniang.
A group of men walked out of the crowd of women. When they were outside the house, Wang Lao waved his hand to summon one of his men. He said, "Take two men with you and wait here. Inform me immediately if there's any movement."
"Understood!" The man answered with a smile. Of course, he understood that Wang Lao wanted him to keep an eye on Pang Yuniang and find a chance to talk to her.
"Let's go drink!" Wang Lao ordered the others to leave.
In the attic, Pang Yuniang seemed to have lost interest in the liveliness. She said to Cha Ruyan, "Mother, I have an appointment with a friend. I'll leave first."
Cha Ruyan immediately asked, "Is it a man or a woman?" She was looking forward to a bold man looking for her daughter. Of course, Wang Lao was an informant that Hao Defang had placed around Master.
Pang Yuniang rolled her eyes, "Huangfujun? Y。”
