Xia Ling

Mei nodded her head: “Youperson, you must know

there are reith you is not

li…Wo”

wang Yun

Feng sucked in a breath, water surging to be the first to enter his throat, as

he was befuddled, he only had the ti Mei heartlessly turn

around, leaving without even looking back

Xia Ling

Meiresidence she couldn’t

release her emotions

“Really,

lady pushed the ht” Xiu Yu was very worried

when she heard the gossip

Hei Zi

jeered: “The lady is too soft How is kicking hih, at

least she should have tied Lord wang’s legs to two boulders, let him directly

drown in the pond and become fish bait”

“Alas, that

is et him drunk and kick him in, make is

absolutely iure out who killed him” This was the

drunkard

Bai Zi was

suspicious, Juan Shu was angry, Bai Yan cracked melon seeds between his teeth

Bai Zi: “If

she killed the master, ould the lady do?”

Juan Shu

snorted: “Be a ”

Bai Yan

drew out his sword: “Kill her, hosts husband and wife”

Xiu Yu

walked away angry, Hei Zi sneered, the drunkard belched

Ying shi+

carrying tea walked by: “What are you doing?”

Everyone:

“Gossiping,”

“Oh,” Ying

shi+ bypassed the long hallway, “I’ to present tea to the lady, thepile of people portraits, for the lady to pick

a husband”

Xiu Yu

gladly and diligently followed: “The lady is finally re?”

“Yes, the

lady said she is finally starting to yearn for love, while she still has a

little thought of love, she needs to quickly find a suitable man to marry, next

year we can wait upon a little master”

A little

ently followed behind, like

a long queue going to watch and gossip

Inside the drawing

roo wo in

a group, holding tea, face filled with a good-natured smile, inwardly no one

knew each other’s strength against each other

Xia Ling

Mei sat at the front, Zhuang Sheng sat nearby with one leg over the other, the

two people with a roll of a portrait in their hands, looking at it horizontally

or vertically or slanted, eyebrows raised, noses wrinkled, this expression was

already exhausted Each portrait placed down, so

doould laugh happily, some would be worried

“My lady

has said, if the other person is an official, she doesn’t want anyone below

fifth rank, she doesn’t want those who use their family wealth to buy a title,

she doesn’t want anyone who isn’t the son of the first wife, she doesn’t want a

bachelor who has children, she doesn’t want anyone who already has over two

concubines and maids, finally, she doesn’t want

anyone below fifth rank official, if the other person is a Jianghu person, even

if they are a fifth rank official she doesn’t want him She doesn’t want

cried bodies, if their appearance

isn’t adequate she doesn’t want the with

the wind, she doesn’t want soht and kill without

the ability to support his family Apart from these, those from merchant

families will not be considered, normal civilians are not included in this

range of choices, don’t even think about those ill stop a re-e,

without exception those with brothers in their residence who has committed

murder are not wanted…”

Zhuang

Sheng switched one leg over the other before continuing, taking a sip of strong

tea, sighing in despair: “Why don’t you just tell us directly what you want”

Xia Ling

Mei tossed the portrait in her hand onto the pile of waste papers, rubbing her

eyes, eating a piece of pastry: “Actually my requirements aren’t much, I only

need soht in the mountains, able

to venture the Jianghu’s fires and waters, on the outside he’s a upright

nobleentle as a jade, inside he’s a respectful and virtuous person who

thinks of his wife as the sky Strive for self-improvement, brave and astute,

fair and reasonable, gentle, modest and courteous, speak cautiously and acts

quickly, capable of versatility, and have great ambitions, a visionary and

sagacious…”

“And so on,

“ Zhuang Sheng shouted, “Are you looking for a husband, or looking for a

national hero?”

“Relatives

of the emperor also will not pass?” a certain matchmaker quietly said

Xia Ling

Mei laughed: “There are also vermin within the emperor’s relatives”

“Then

influential families?”

“There are

also immoral and despicable people”

“Then

official aristocratic families?”

“There are

also refined scums of society”

“Jianghu

hero?”

“A fool can

be found everywhere”

Everyone

heaved a sigh

Some

: “This e is a

two-sided matter Lady for you to make so many requests is also expected, but, if

there is such a e, what can we use on behalf of

this lady? Us matchmakers have drank many cups of tea, so far we still don’t

know this lady’s background, talent and learning, and the amount of dowry”

“Ah,” Xia

Ling Mei used her circular fan to fan herself tith cold air: “The Xia

fa of my father’s

honour, talking only about our younger generation, ast the five wives, six

daughters are of the first wife, three married an official above fifth rank,

one Princess, one Imperial Consort; five sons of the first wife, three cultural

officials above fifth rank, two st

them there are also twelve bastards, nine of those are civil and military

officials above sixth rank, the re three are still minors; fifteen women

born of a concubine, eight has ht married officials above sixth

rank, the other seven remain at home”

She raised

her eyebrows, a dignified wo

and agreeable wohu, where there is water there is fire, fire

conta a serene charm to attract people

Zhuang

Sheng held his breath, glancing over, at the door Gu Lang was drooling, wang

Yun Feng outside of the courtyard had a pale coe

of collapsing
