After this year's Chrysanthemum banquet, the main topic of discussion in the streets and alleys of the Ding capital had finally changed its name.
The Little Xie Marquis of the residence of the Marquis of Lin An used an extremely strong stance to extinguish the prestige of the two Shu brothers. Even though he was arrogant in his actions, but in a short period of time, he displayed a graceful bearing which made people understand that the name of the Jade Faced Asura on the battlefield was not an undeserved reputation.
The other person was the idiot Shen Miao.
It was as if she had been reborn or perhaps it was because the blood in the Shen family's bones had finally been aroused. The stupid and cowardly Shen Miao had faded away, and Cai Lin did not make a sound when confronting Cai Lin. His aggressive and fierce temperament made the youths and young ladies of the same generation rather fearful.
As such, in Guang Wen Tang, those who ridiculed her previously had restrained themselves a little.
When Cai Lin came to Guang Wen Tang again, he stared at Shen Miao with an unkind expression but for the first time, he did not act rashly. It seemed that Shen Miao had left a shadow on him that day.
Feng An Ning looked at Cai Lin's appearance and smiled, "One did not think that the overlord would be somewhat afraid of you now."
Shen Miao glanced at Cai Lin and the latter quickly turned his eyes away with a somewhat fearful look. She laughed in her heart. In her eyes, Cai Lin was only an arrogant and mischievous Young Master, and she did not want to waste more effort on this. Moreover the Cai family was not far from being annihilated, and in the future this noble Young Master would have to suffer a lot.
"But one heard that the two Xie brothers were seriously injured, but the Marquis of Lin An did not pursue the fault of the Little Xie Marquis. Even though a physician was invited for the two brothers to recuperate, it was considered as grounding." Feng An Ning sighed, "It seems that the Marquis of Lin An's favouritism towards the Di son is indeed a fact."
Shen Miao asked, "Where did you get to know about it?"
"Eavesdropping on my Father and Mother's conversation." Feng An Ning was somewhat proud, "But if it was another person, most likely they would also dote on the Little Xie Marquis. Not to mention him, he is the son of Princess Yu Qing who has the Imperial bloodline …"
Shen Miao raised her brows. To be honest, she always felt that the death of Princess Yu Qing of the residence of the Marquis of Lin An was somewhat fishy. With the attitude of the Marquis of Lin An towards the two Xie brothers, there was no reason to let Madam Fang live peacefully until now.
As she pondered, she saw Pei Lang walk in.
There was a gentle smile on Pei Lang's face and coincidentally looked towards Shen Miao's direction. Meeting Shen Miao's gaze, Pei Lang could not help but be slightly surprised.
At the Chrysanthemum banquet, Shen Miao's performance finally made Pei Lang put away his contempt. From then on, he also began to feel that Shen Miao was not ordinary, and he also sensitively felt that Shen Miao seemed to be secretly paying attention to him. Although he did not know why, it made this young gentleman a little uncomfortable, as if he was being stared at. But when he thought that no matter how powerful Shen Miao was, she was still a budding young female, he felt that he was thinking too much.
"Why do you keep staring at him?" Feng An Ning said curiously and immediately thought of something and turned pale with fright, "Could it be that you admire him again?"
Now that Shen Miao did not mention anything about Fu Xiu Yi, she was so cold that it was as if she had forgotten about this person, and this made those people who were watching the bustle to realize something. Most likely Shen Miao knew that she was not worthy of the Imperial family and had gradually given up on the idea. It could be seen from the fact that she did not chase after Fu Xiu Yi at the Chrysanthemum banquet. Even though Pei Lang's status was lower, he had an elegant demeanor and was knowledgeable, thus it was natural for young females to like him.
Shen Miao had some headaches and retracted her gaze, "Of course not." She was only thinking that since Pei Lang did not speak about the 'Circulation of Law' at the Chrysanthemum banquet, then Fu Xiu Yi did not put it in his heart. But this person was after all a hidden danger and if in the future Fu Xiu Yi was to use him … Shen Miao's face sunk as she feared that there would be endless troubles in the future.
It was just that she did not have the ability to kill Pei Lang without anyone knowing, so she could only find another way.
…
At this moment in the Ding capital's Hundred Fragrant Lou, there were songs and dances celebrating peace. Even if it was daytime, the gauze curtains and luminous pearls that were placed everywhere made the entire building overflowing with colour. Music and bamboo flutes were in the air and occasionally there would be people stopping outside but they could only look at it with envy. Not for other reasons, when ordinary wealthy families entered the Hundred Fragrant Lou, they would be somewhat embarrassed. Even a small pot of tea was expensive and it was a veritable money squandering den.
At this moment, at the side of the window, there was a middle aged man dressed in luxurious clothing. This man's clothing was of the highest quality but he looked sinister and dark and skinny. Under the robe, there was an empty left leg and it was Prince Yu of the First Rank.
"Have you made it clear with that Shen family?" After a long while, he asked in a gloomy tone.
"Replying to Your Highness, it has already been arranged with Second Furen of the Shen family. Three days later the Shen family's females will go to Wo Long Temple to offer incense, at that time … "
"Three days." Prince Yu frowned and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes. Then he waved his hands, "Go and prepare the things that should be prepared. This Prince had not met such an interesting person for a long time. "
For so many years, his temperament was evil and cruel and the number of females that died in his hands was uncountable. But no matter how those females resisted, they were unable to stir up any waves. In the entire Ming Qi, he had long known of Shen Xin's fierce name. He did not know what kind of taste was that awe-inspiring Great General's daughter. And that day at the Chrysanthemum banquet, Shen Miao's ruthlessness made him very interested. A wild cat that knew how to resist, perhaps it would be more interesting than those wooden beauties.
He licked his lips and a trace of evil flashed in his eyes.
Opposite the room closest to him, there was a white clad male sitting in front of the glass table. He was about twenty plus years old and was handsome with a very gentle temperament. After listening attentively for a while, he then said to the person in front like he was watching a good show, "It seems that the young lady that you saved most likely is in trouble again."
Opposite him, the purple clad youth sat lazily and casually said, "The Shen family's tree is big enough to attract the wind. This is also Shen Xin's fault. Now it is only a test but there will be a day when no one in the Shen family will be able to protect it. "
The white clad male paused and suddenly looked at the youth, "Third Xie, why did you do that previously to injure the Shu Younger Brother in the academy examinations? Could it be that your plan is to be brought forward?"
The person sitting opposite him was not someone else but Xie Jing Xing. His lips hooked up into a smile, "So what if it is brought forward or not?"
"If you take action in advance … Do they know about it? "The white clad male asked hesitantly.
"Gao Yang, you do not understand one thing. Now here, I have the final say." Xie Jing Xing said lightly, "The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it is for me. If the mountain does not come to me, then I will go to the mountain. "When he said the last sentence, his eyes deepened and he did not look like a seventeen or eighteen year old youth anymore.
The male named Gao Yang was surprised for a moment before smiling bitterly, "Never mind. I only came over to look at you. But in fact, I really do not have the confidence to stop you. " He changed the topic, "But three days later, you also need to go to Wo Long Temple to investigate some things. Perhaps you can save the beauty again." He smiled mischievously.
"Gao Yang, your eyesight is as bad as always." Xie Jing Xing raised his eyebrows, "That Shen family's girl is not one to be provoked."
