The inside the pagoda of Feng Xian Pawnshop, it was called Xian Lin Jian. The first floor was a place for business but from the second to the sixth floor, it was for the enjoyment of the Family Master.
At this moment in the tearoom on sixth floor, there sat three people in front of the table.
My apologies… Upon feedback, I realised that I have posted the unedited version. Please check back in a couple of hours for the edited one… Sorry…

Bai Xiao Sheng was not a person but an industry.
In one’s time in the living, there are thousands of poses and attitudes, there are imperial courts and families, and also the commoners in the pugilist world. In the thirty six trades and seventy two industries, there were also people who belonged to the three religions and nine schools of thoughts. It does not sound serious or noble but there were many opportunities and roles in them. There were times when these people from the three religions and nine schools of thoughts would maintain and preserve the sporadic relationship between the Imperial court and the pugilist world.

In the Western courtyard, Shen Xin and wife had returned back to their room but Shen Qiu was still seated down unmoving.
He had a wooden face on like he was a door god sitting in front of Shen Miao’s table. That young General looked like a spring breeze normally but when his face turned black, there was an air of a hot blooded murderous male in a battlefield which made Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang afraid to approach.

A fine returning banquet ended in such a sudden turn of events. Emperor Wen Hui’s mood was gone so he brushed his sleeves and left shortly. The Empress also mentioned that she was tired and retired. After the Emperor and Empress left, the officials naturally knew they could not stay any longer and found excuses to leave. Even though on the surface, it was a perfect ending today, the Eldest Shen Young Lady would marry into Prince Yu of the First Rank residence, but discerning people knew that it was a terrible scandal. As for the Shen family’s Eldest Young Lady, once she was married into the Prince Yu residence, everything would bodes ill and there would not be any positive signs.
Luo Xue Yan held Shen Miao’s hands tightly. She did not know how Shen Qing and Prince Yu had an affair but was more worried about Shen Miao’s safety as she felt that the dangers in the Ding capital was comparable with those in the Northwestern desert.

Although Ming Qi was considered quite open about matters between male and female, but getting pregnant before marriage and having an illicit relationship was a matter that will lose the clan’s reputation. Once it was found out, one would be drown in a pond. The Shen family was considered a prominent official family in Ming Qi. Even though Shen Gui’s rank was not comparable as Shen Xin’s, it was not considered as low. The higher Shen Gui’s position was in, the worst the impact of the matter was. The Empress who was in charge of the six palaces also could not get used to such filthy matters and her cold voice made everyone hear the old values that were held.
Ren Wan Yun only felt bitterness in her mouth and did not say a single sentence. What could she say, that Shen Qing was not having an illicit relationship but was violated? But no matter which way, the fact was that her innocence was lost. As for the matter of Prince Yu, she even more could not say a single word. Prince Yu had the character of haggling over every cent and if one bit him, one would not have anything good to eat.

“Eldest Sister must not move too.” Shen Miao said blandly, “One cannot point for certain if the assailant is mixed into the crowd. When the Imperial Physician arrive, Eldest Sister’s pulse would be taken on the spot else if the movement affected the body energy, one would be afraid that there will be a problem.”
Ren Wan Yun did not have time to speak when Emperor Wen Hui nodded and said, “Yes. Maintain the original scene.”

“This younger brother is interested in— Shen family’s young lady.”
With a ‘hong’ sound, the entire hall was suddenly up in an uproar and everyone’s eyes were on the three Di young ladies of the Shen family. Among the three Shen young ladies, Shen Qing was already engaged and only Shen Yue and Shen Miao was left. Shen Yue was gentle and moving and her talent reputation was known throughout, but now Shen Miao was also a fine young lady and from her bearing, one would be surprised and the more important thing was that behind Shen Miao there was Shen Xin, a big respectable Buddha. Moreover the crowd could see clearly that the person Prince Yu was observing was Shen Miao.
Gentle reminder… There will be only 2 releases this week and responses to your comments will be very very very slow… 😀

After the Crown Prince’s Consort was seated, the good friends she had from before she was married came over to chat with her. Over at the male side, Prince Yu had also arrived.
When Prince Yu arrived, some of the people at the female side were silent, especially those young females who were scared till their face turned pale.
