Chapter 23 (1/2)

When

building aa palace for

the people of the Jianghu, the more respected you were the more aloft you would

like to live, enjoying looking at all living things disdainfully out of the

corner of your eye with a feeling of supremacy In a carefree mood you can look

doith an evil and charloomy mood you can raise your head

shouting aloud, enjoy life while you can! Xian Yun manor was several hundred li from Chenzhou, between there are

nues, waterfalls, streams, uninterrupted

undulation of on, and the manor house was

at the highest peak of the dragon head, for ordinary people it would take them

at least a day to get up there For the people of the Jianghu, it depended on

their qing gong ╮(╯▽╰)╭

When Xia

Ling Mei received the news the Zhao Princess was safe, she could already see in

the distance the eaves of the paGoda on the fat dragon’s head, countless black

birds circled down from the top of the paGoda, with a somewhat sinister

feeling

Behind her

there were still assassins, following her was Zhuang Sheng who she did not know

of his loyalty, although she did not have uards she did not have a lot

either As a chess piece of the Xia fa

Mei’s safety was not as significant as other titled women, and she was

exceptionally skilled, apart fro where

she stirred up trouble, the last five years she never made the family worry, as

a result, even if she was suffering, she was not too anxious and afraid

“As for

that endary person, when he

was still an infant his ht up by a wet

nurse His father is said to have fae in the country, yet always

left hi him into the official residence

Afterwards, his father because he was set up by an official of power his whole

faeneration, he survived as he was protected

secretly, after he had a fortuitous uided by a very able

person to becohu”

Xia Ling Mei

was not interested in that enuinely wanted

to look for was not Jiu Fang Xi However, letting Zhuang Sheng misunderstand could

dispense a lot of inconvenience, she and Hei Zi wisely decided to let thatcarry on beautifully

“Jiu Fang

Xi is the martial arts leader that rarely sees the relatives of the imperial

household” Zhuang Sheng said thinking rather deeply

“So?” Xia

Ling Mei raised her eyebrow, “just because he sought e? I’m

only a daughter of the Xia fah the Imperial

Consort comes from my family, it still does not mean any in-laws can easily be

proh official position”

Zhuang

Sheng hed: “What you want to say, favouritism towards

relatives, friends or associates are unacceptable, right? But, having thisit Moreover, this martial arts leader

martial art skills can barely match up to mine, with him as my rival in love, I

have seventy percent success”

“Hey, you

are boasting a bit too much?” Hei Zi finally could not bear to carry on

listening, he really has never seen such a brazen person What sort of person

is that , he actually

dared to say the martial arts leader couldn’t match up to him!

Xia Ling

Mei sotten the most important factor?”

“What?”

Xia Ling

Mei insipidly said: “My feelings”

Zhuang

Sheng blanked for a moment: “Don’t you women from influential families only

choose based on faround and the other person’s characteristic and

talent? When was the women’s opinions considered!”

Xia Ling

Mei urged her horse on twice the speed: “Originally it’s like that, but I don’t

like it” She turned back to look at him, “Have you heard about a lady who

picks her own husband? Have you also heard of an un to beher own initiative to marry if she wants to, not marry if

she doesn’t? Have you also heard of a wo

the Jianghu recklessly? You haven’t, but now you’ve seen”

She raised

her head, the corners of her eyes and eyebroere arrogant and wilful: “I can

tell you, apart from me, in this world there are no women who dare to say `no`

against her own e”

“Even if

they have a good faood looks, if I

don’t love him, I won’t marry him”

“If I am

truly moved, no matter who the other person is, whatever his status, I can be

his good wife at ease, for this lifetiainst the family because

of his career and status”

When she

was saying this, Zhuang Sheng appeared to have heard the sound of a waterfall

far away flowing down, beating onto a boulder The sweet-sounding and

resounding words of the woate,

word by word splashi+ng inside the gate, flowing into the heart Popping

through, a small rabbit leapt out, a jubilant small deer followed closely

behind, a flying fish, a wild goose fore crowd, momentarily

do his ash-coloured sky

As if he

could hear his own breathing: “I think, finally I knohy Lord wang is

obstinately persisting in the wrong ith you… be careful!”

Quick as

lightening, Zhuang Sheng in a flash flew hi Mei’s back,

countless hidden arrows ca in from all directions

“`Jia!`”

Zhuang Sheng grabbed hold of a lot of arrows in a flurry, flinging his long

whip on the horse’s botto out of the enclosure of

screauards

In a split

second of palpitation, wang Yun Feng opened his eyes It seemed like he had

fainted just now

“Master,

you haven’t rested in two days and one night, it’s better to go back I will

bring the mistress back” Xiao Bai rode his horse up to his side,

singlehandedly holding up his back

wang Yun

Feng shook his head, looking at Xia Fen in front of hi on his stomach on

Wu Sheng’s shoulder, inquisitively looking at hi him awake, his mouth

twitched up: “You’re so weak!” Xia Fen said, “If you dosed off on a

battlefield, in an instant your head would be rolling on the ground”

“You’ve

been on a battlefield with General Xia?”

“Of course,

a o on a battlefield is not a man, he is a coward”

wang Yun

Feng slightly frowned: “Who taught you that phrase?”

“The

soldiers all say this Adoptive mother says, a battlefield is the best place to

toughen your courage, also only on a battlefield can a man of indomitable

spirit be born”

Xia Fen

perhaps felt it was too boring, since there was so to

speak to hiood-natured Of course, his tone was

still fairly disdainful: “You’ve never been on a battlefield, you’re a weakling”

wang Yun

Feng sat upright, again grasping the reins fir: “In ancient

history, a great general still dies by the hands of a civil court official

You’ve been on a battlefield, at most you’re considered to be a boorish fellow,

but still the smallest”

Xia Fen

furiously waved his fists: “Wait until I’m older, I will beat the crap out of

you I won’t allow you to bully the Xia family”

wang Yun

Feng snorted, sure enough he was a child of the Xia family, the deep-rooted

fay, must not allow anyone be rude towards the Xia family, even if

it’s just words Only, he unexpectedly called the Xia family’s fifth master as

General Xia, clearly he had grown up in the barracks from childhood The Xia

fa, at home and

in the imperial court were entirely two types of manners

wang Yun

Feng was quite tired, he felt teasing the baby a little would freshen him up:
