Chapter 298: Miao Yin (Part 1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Three days pa.s.sed quickly.
Early in the morning, Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan arrived at Xuanyi Mansion. Wei s.h.i.+lai looked at Liu Sanniang and smiled at her. “h.e.l.lo, Miss Liu.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. Chu Yan had found them a house with a small courtyard and six rooms. The original owner moved away, so they bought it for a hundred taels of silver.
It was not a prosperous location. The people living around were mostly ordinary people.
After they got into the carriage, the coachman followed Wei s.h.i.+lai’s instructions and went to the Third Prince’s mansion.
Wei s.h.i.+lai said, “Miss Liu, the Third Prince is coming for you. You have to be careful.”
Liu Sanniang nodded. “Thank you for your reminder.”
Wei s.h.i.+lai was relieved to see that Liu Sanniang was calm. After not having seen her for a few months, he felt that he could not see through Liu Sanniang anymore. There was no change in her appearance, but he knew that a mortal like him was no longer able to understand what Liu Sanniang wanted to do and what she was thinking.
When Chu Yan did not speak, Wei s.h.i.+lai could barely feel his existence. He was also shocked after he realized that Chu Yan seemed to be a psychic too.
When they arrived at the Third Prince’s mansion, Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan followed behind Wei s.h.i.+lai. He handed a letter to the servant who stepped away politely to let them enter.
The Third Prince’s mansion was huge, filled with beautiful rockeries and pavilions.
Wei s.h.i.+lai lowered his voice. “The Third Prince found a woman with a beautiful singing voice and has invited many young masters to the banquet to listen.”
He did not know what traps the Third Prince had set up.
When they reached the front hall, they could hear laughter.
Wei s.h.i.+lai handed over the invitation. The eunuch took a look at it and returned it to Wei s.h.i.+lai before entering the hall.
After a while, Xia Hongming’s voice came from inside. “Oh, are Minister Wei and Miss Liu here already? Hurry up and invite them in.”
The eunuch came out and said respectfully to Wei s.h.i.+lai, “Sir, please.”
Wei s.h.i.+lai looked at Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan. “Miss Liu, let’s go.”
Liu Sanniang nodded and followed Wei s.h.i.+lai into the front hall. On one side of the hall, there were a few men in brocade robes. On the other side, under the main seat, was Wu Ju in white.
Liu Sanniang looked at Wu Ju, and he also looked at Liu Sanniang and nodded slightly. There were a few young men beside Wu Ju with solemn expressions. They did not look at Liu Sanniang but sat cross-legged with their backs straight.
On the main seat was the Third Prince, Xia Hongming. He seemed to like black, and there was a python embroidered on his black brocade robe.
Xia Hongming looked at Wei s.h.i.+lai and smiled. “Minister Wei, Miss Liu, please take a seat. We were waiting for you.”
The seats had already been prepared. Wei s.h.i.+lai, Liu Sanniang, and Chu Yan sat down.
Xia Hongming leaned lazily on the main seat and snapped his fingers. “Go and get Miss Miao Yin. She has such a beautiful voice. I can’t wait to share it with everyone.”
The eunuch serving immediately turned around and left.
Xia Hongming looked at Wu Ju. “Masters, Miss Liu, who is sitting beside Minister Wei, is a master who solved Qian Rangli’s case. She’s also from the Mystic Sect. Why don’t you tell me your first impression of her.”
“Miss Liu and I are old friends. In my eyes, she is the chosen one and no one in this world can compare to her.”
Hearing that, those who had ignored Liu Sanniang in the first place also looked at her.
The two people on Wu Ju’s left looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “We don’t agree with what Master Wu Ju said.”
Xia Hongming was interested. “Master Jing Mu and Master Jing Yun, why don’t you agree with Master Wu Ju?”
Jing Yun looked at Liu Sanniang and answered. “Third Prince, it’s because I didn’t sense any spiritual power from Miss Liu. She’s a person without any spiritual power and doesn’t even have the foundation to cultivate. I don’t know why Master Wu Ju has such a high opinion of her, but in my opinion, she’s just an ordinary person.”
Xia Hongming narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Sanniang. “That’s interesting. I’m curious. Is Miss Liu a liar?”
Jing Mu looked at Liu Sanniang and said, “The world is huge, and there are millions of cultivation methods. Perhaps there is a way to cultivate that the Cloud Breaking Sect isn’t aware of.”
Jing Mu and Jing Yun were from the Cloud Breaking Sect, which was a large sect in the Mystic World.
After Jing Mu finished speaking, a young man immediately shouted. “Everyone knows that the Cloud Breaking Sect is a big sect. The two masters are too humble.”
Jing Mu did not speak and Jing Yun looked at Liu Sanniang arrogantly and provocatively. However, Liu Sanniang only looked away and did not react to his provocation.
Xia Hongming’s eyes darkened. The people from the Cloud Breaking Sect really thought highly of themselves. Ever since they were defeated by Wu Ju, he had no regard for them.
Xia Hongming smiled. “Master Wu Yu, what do you think?”
Sitting at the end was an old monk in tattered clothes. He did not pay attention to what others were saying at all. Instead, he focused on eating and drinking. After being called out by Xia Hongming, he wiped his mouth with his sleeve and looked at Liu Sanniang. He narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Third Prince, you are putting me on a spot. I can’t tell.”
Xia Hongming smiled. “Carry on eating.”
Wu Yu gave a smile and went back to his food.
The eunuch shouted. “Miss Miao Yin is here.”
Xia Hongming clapped his hands. Soon, a pet.i.te woman in a bright yellow dress entered the hall. The woman’s exposed hands were fair and slender, and her face was covered by a veil. The woman bowed slightly. “Greetings, Your Highness.”
Xia Hongming smiled. “Good, good. Every time I hear you talk, I feel like I’m getting intoxicated.”
Miao Yin stood up and responded softly. “Thank you for your praise, Third Prince.”
Xia Hongming said, “I found Miss Miao Yin not long ago. Her singing is unparalleled. Hearing her sing, I feel like I’ve been purified.”
Miao Yin smiled shyly. “Thank you for your kind praises, Your Highness. I’ve already prepared a song called Water Town.”
