Chapter Twenty-Six: Water Tea
Tonight's Feng'an City is as bright as day, looking down from the sky, the layout of the whole city is like a huge gossip array. The streets are like a river of lights, and the Feng'an City at this moment seems to be a male city built by a group of lights, but it is like an isolated island against the black and vast dense forests and hills around the city wall. There is an endless stream of people in the city, carrying lanterns to form a river of lights, and there are wishing lanterns rising, carrying the most sincere and best wishes in the world to heaven. In this Feng'an city covering an area of 56,410 square kilometers, the most glorious place tonight is the imperial city located in the south-west position, tonight Zhao Lingyun set up a banquet in the Qianxin Palace, banquet for civil and military officials, to celebrate the Yuan Xi Festival and the victory of the battle of the three realms, is the so-called: Moon Shadow Oblique Hua Palace, warm jade and turbid wine. Singing and dancing to praise the merits, the aftermath surrounds the carved beam. The lights and trees shine thousands of times, and the spiritual flames are opened. Smile and greet each other, and the sound moves the sky.
The celebration of the entire Feng'an City has entered the **, and the servants on duty of the Ministry of Etiquette are firing spiritual flames everywhere, and the night sky has become colorful. At this time, Jiang Chen and the three of them were holding a strangely shaped lantern in their left hand and food in their right hand, and they were stopping in front of a booth performing acrobatics, and they were laughing at the performances on the field. After a recent period of cultivation, although Xiang Ming's appearance has not changed much, but its temperament has changed a lot, as pure as a lily blooming in the drizzle.
Some bold people took advantage of the large number of people to deliberately rub to Xiangming's side and take the opportunity to talk, but their words were quite subtle, just annoying Xiangming, who had never experienced this kind of thing, a little embarrassed, but he just lowered his cheeks and ignored anyone. But this kind of fragrant tea added a bit of touching, at this time a man in a dark black gilt trimmed dress came from a distance, looking at his face was only about twenty years old, his face was quite upright, but his eyes flickered, his face was pale, and he looked like a gentleman who usually did not leave his body. Behind him were a few domestic servants and pawns, walking rampantly in this direction. When the man saw the fragrant tea in the crowd, his eyes suddenly lit up, but he still carefully identified the woman's dress first, and made sure that it was just a girl from an ordinary family, and then looked at the three children she was protecting in front of her without obvious identity characteristics, and only looked like children in ordinary rich and noble families. After roughly determining the identities of these people in his heart, the man's eyes became unscrupulous when he looked at Xiangming, faintly revealing a little obscene, and the slave who was familiar with his master's temperament with his eyesight and familiarity with his own master's temperament suddenly understood, and took a few people to drink away the people around Xiangming, and there was the stubborn man, seeing that these slaves were so rude, and was about to reason with them, but when he saw the waist card tied around the slave's waist, his expression changed, and he retreated silently with fear, but he was worried about this beautiful woman in his heart.
I saw the man pretend to walk up to Xiang Ming, cough twice and said, "Girl, is it a person?" completely ignoring the three children standing in front of Xiang Ming's arms, maybe they noticed it and didn't take it seriously. And although Xiangming has already embarked on the path of cultivation, she has always been only in the deep palace, and she is still that cautious and cautious character. However, the complex environment in the palace made Xiang Ming understand the dirtiness and evil of people's hearts early on, and then looked at the faint filth in the man's eyes, although Xiang Ming was a little disgusted in her heart, but her cautious temperament still did not make her speak ill of her, just pulled Jiang Chen, Yue Wujing and Wei Chide to prepare to retreat, and the three children had already noticed that the surrounding environment had changed, and looked at the five or six people who surrounded them with some curiosity.
But when he saw the man take a step forward, blocking Xiangming's way, he asked with a hypocritical and frivolous smile: "Girl, are you leaving?" I wonder if Bai is lucky enough to be able to travel with the girl tonight in this lantern festival?"
Xiangming looked at him and blocked the way again, so she had to reluctantly speak: "Childe, please get out of the way, I'm going to find my young lady now." Xiangming saw that there were many people now, but she didn't dare to mention the identity of Zhao Qin'er's eldest princess, for fear of provoking the peeps of people with a heart and causing some unnecessary trouble. When the man heard this, he was also stunned, he didn't expect Xiangming to have such a unique temperament, and his identity turned out to be just a maid. After thinking about it in his heart, his behavior became more unscrupulous, he was already pulling Xiang Ming, Xiang Ming turned around and dodged away, the man was secretly shocked, he didn't expect that this little girl was still a person with cultivation, and when he just went to catch her, he instinctively used some tricks, but she avoided it. Although I was shocked, I didn't think about it, but I was even more happy. He has never been to Wushan Yunyu with this kind of gentle and water-like female spiritual cultivator of a good family, I don't know what it feels like, although the largest place in Feng'an City to seek pleasure, there are also some low-level female cultivators with aura in the Incense Illusory Pavilion, but I have not seen a female cultivator with such a temperament as Xiangming, and even if she is gorgeous, there is a little smell of wind and dust. The man who fell into obscenity was restless in his heart like a hundred claws scratching his heart.
Xiangming took advantage of his stunned kung fu, has already walked out of the circle surrounded by those slaves, those slaves only saw their masters stunned, let Xiangming and a few people leave, they did not dare to stop without authorization, let Xiangming and a few people leave, the man came back to his senses, was about to say something more, where is there Xiangming's figure in front of him, and then saw that Xiangming had walked out with three children about a hundred meters, the man scolded a few slaves who followed him, and then rushed up.
After catching up with Xiang Ming and the others, the man continued to pester Xiang Ming with frivolous words, and Xiang Ming's face became more and more ugly, but he was still patient. She sensed that when the man stepped forward to grab her just now, she brought a burst of aura fluctuations, and she was already clear, but she really didn't know how high this man's cultivation was, and she could only endure it for the safety of Jiang Chen's children. She can endure it, but some people can't bear it.
An immature girl said in a slightly angry voice: "Why are you so annoying, Sister Xiangming doesn't want to talk to you, and you keep following, it's really annoying." The man's face instantly turned red, but it was not good to deal with a child in front of Xiangming, and he had to maintain a demeanor that he didn't have, so he only heard the little fat man next to the girl eat a piece of meatloaf in his hand and said in agreement: "That's it, annoying spirit, can you go away, I don't even have the mood to eat, Jiang Chen, do you say?" He asked the other child next to him, and the child took a bite of the hot meatloaf in his hand, only to look up at himself and nodded, did not speak, and lowered his head and continued to eat a meatloaf in his hand, completely ignoring himself. The man was said by several children, embarrassed, embarrassed but helpless, although so, he still had no intention of retreating, Xiangming listened to Yue Wujing and Wei Chide tease this fly-like man, and couldn't help but cover the corners of his mouth with his hand and pursed his lips and laughed silently, although he didn't laugh out loud, but the two eyes had become crescent-shaped, which was even more moving, and the man was stunned for a moment.
The servant who followed the man had already caught up with him, and when he heard the three children say this about his master, he immediately spoke: "You three little bastards, do you know who my son-in-law is? Saying that, one of the servants who was eager to show himself raised his fist and hit the little fat man, which scared the little fat man, and he couldn't avoid the punch, and suddenly a water mass appeared in front of the little fat man, wrapped the fist in it, and could not advance half an inch, nor could he retreat, Jiang Chen, who was standing next to the little fat man, reacted quickly, raised his foot and kicked at the knee yang point on the leg of the dog man's servant, the servant couldn't bear it, stood unsteadily, and "plopped" Kneeling down on one knee in front of the little fat man, the little fat man saw such a scene and immediately giggled and said: "Ah! You dog leg was about to beat me just now, and now why are you kneeling down again, I heard my father say, 'Men only kneel to the sky and kneel to their parents', I don't want to give you this dog leg to be Lao Tzu." ”
When the onlookers heard the little fat man's words, they all burst out laughing, why was the little fat man's mouth so damaged. Look at the servant again, his face full of anger, and his eyes breathing fire, trying to tear the mouth of this little fat man with sinister words. But he struggled for a while before he stood up, looking at Jiang Chen and secretly shocked, why did this kid have such a big leg. The water mass that wrapped his fist had also disappeared, and he glanced at Xiangming with fear, not daring to step forward to find fault again, and limped back behind the man in black. I saw the man in black secretly scolding "waste", and then walked forward with a smile on his face and said to Xiangming: "I'm sorry, I'm not a sensible person, I'll discipline you well when I go back." He glared angrily at the people who were looking at his jokes, and then looked at Xiang Ming and said loudly: "My father is Bai Zhi, the prime minister of the dynasty, my name is Bai Jufei, girl, I heard these children call you Xiang Ming, I wonder if I can tell you what your full name is?"
Xiang Ming's face changed several times, first listening to this frivolous person ask her name, how could she have a surname as a maidservant in the palace, although she usually doesn't care, but now that she is mentioned, the self-confidence she has exercised after cultivation has been hit in an instant, and only a sense of inferiority remains. I heard this person say that his name was Bai Jufei and he was the son of Xiangye, so I was even more flustered. Xiangming didn't know that this was Bai Jufei's deliberate move, and he was already a little impatient to think that he would take this Xiangming away today no matter what. It's just because today is the Yuan Xi Festival, and there are many people on the street, if it is a normal time, this Bai Jufei would have been used a long time ago, and he would have said so many words to Xiang Ming, showing a polite appearance.
Of course, Bai Jufei knew that a maid would not have her own surname, so that Xiang Ming could recognize her identity, and then said that she was the son of the prime minister, although there was a deliberate display of the elements, one to block the mouths of those onlookers, and the other to let Xiang Ming know that even if she went to find the young lady in her family, it would be useless, except for the current monarch, who else can be compared with the prime minister of the current dynasty, as long as he is an understanding person, he should know that it is not worth offending the prime minister of the dynasty for a maid who is just a little cultivated, and he has a dream of suppressing people with power.
Although some of the onlookers were full of resentment and worried about the Xiangming people, they were afraid of the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion and did not dare to intervene. Some people have the mentality that they don't care about themselves and just watch the excitement, and some people even put on a gloating expression. There are even more speculators who are ready to make a move at the right time. Even those onlookers were silent at this time, each with their own considerations, some thought that after all, they were the son of the prime minister, and it would be bad to offend, and some thought that this girl would definitely not be able to run away from the glory and wealth of the son of the prime minister for a lifetime, and some wanted to take the opportunity to hug their thighs, and they had already said loudly, "Girl, since Bai Gongzi has taken a fancy to you, this is your chance!
At this time, a pleasant female voice came from the crowd and said: "Her name is Shui Xiangming, I don't know what you are?" Could it be that the current younger generation of the Zhao Xin clan are all shameless people like you?"
