So, on April 9th, at Jiang Yadan’s request, Jiang Yashuang and he rode to Yunyi Restaurant in advance. They went in the private room “Binghu Xianyu” which was next to the private room “Baihe Woxue” booked by He Shuijin.Because it was still early. They just asked the servant to make them some tea. They chatted casually while eating some of the special snacks of Yunyi Restaurant. Yunyi Restaurant was built by Mirror Lake. All the private rooms upstairs were near the window. So, the guests could enjoy the lake view.That day was the first day of the Courtesan Competition which was held once three years. Yunyi Restaurant made all of its private rooms into luxury belvederes which had the most splendid view. So, while they were drinking tea, Jiang Yashuang suddenly saw someone unexpected among the people who got off the carriage. He couldn’t help making a sound.Jiang Yadan had been watching him. He looked at the same direction as Jiang Yashuang and

The thought of Ruan Qingyan being forced to fight these lascivious tycoons today made Qiu Yelan feel like she was sitting on pins and needles. "He always told me he has enough money, but whether or not he can handle the situation is a big problem. The people over here credit gold as mud. Those who carried silvers to the lake were shy to uncover their box!"She couldn't help asking Jiang Yashuang, "How much can a winner get in this competition?""How should I know?" answered Jiang Yashuang in surprise.Realizing Qiu Yelan was not satisfied with his answer, Jiang Yashuang paused for a while and continued, "But it must be a lot. My brother always doesn't care about how much he spends in daily life. But the result of this competition is also beyond his control."Young master of Jiang Family was not short of money.Qiu Yelan calculated in her heart. She felt more desperate upon her calculation. "My brother must have to pay

Madame Tao should be in her fifties. But she was good at keeping fit and seemed to be in her early forties. Her blood kinship with Empress Jiang was obvious. She looked just like Empress Jiang in her senior years.Different from Empress Jiang's temperament, Madame Tao was amiable and kind. The Mother and daughter had the same quality of keeping calm in an emergency. Even when the juniors who were supposed to go to the lake for fun returned earlier angrily with a strange little girl, Madame Tao would still smile, "Hey, why did you come back so early today? Didn't you say that you wouldn't have lunch?"She glanced outside and smiled again, "Where are Zheng'er and others? Why are you back?" Only then did she talk to Qiu Yelan, "You look strange to me."Jiang Qisheng glanced at Qiu Yelan hard and cut in, "Grandma, this is the Commandery Princess Ningyi next door! Cousin Zheng'er and Cousin He kindly asked her to go to the poetry meeting. Guess what

Although Madame Tao had persuaded Jiang Yashuang to discuss the marriage in person, he didn't expect Qiu Yelan would refuse, "I am no good enough for a gentleman....""If you were not good enough, no one would dare to call themselves beautiful in this world." Now that he had made the offer of marriage, Jiang Yashuang felt much at ease and said straightforwardly, "In fact, I am no match of you in social status and looks. I am just a civilian. I dare beg you just because of my aunt.""Anyway, that's what it means." Qiu Yelan said plainly, "If you talk about appearance, I actually think that if I marry you, everybody will say that I have married up. I have nothing in this world except myself."As for the dowry of Old Princess Lian and Princess Ruan, with the prestige of Jiang family, it's worth nothing even plus the entire property of Prince's Mansion of Xihe.Jiang Yashuang thought for a while and said, "I know what you are worried a

Qiu Yelan narrowed her eyes and sharply criticized him and said, "I have always heard that Master Qiu is a great warrior. Why are you eavesdropping on us in a tree like a thief?"Qiu Feng did not deny it, "It is true that I have been hiding in a tree, but this is because in the evening, after hearing the rumors outside, your brother, Ruan Qingyan was worried that Your Grace is worried too much, in case you can't get over it... That's why he asked me to protect you."He solemnly said, "Although I have been watching Your Grace after arriving, I don't deliberately eavesdrop on your conversation. It is because of the stillness of night so that I heard a few words. Of course, I won't tell anyone about it."Qiu Yelan snorted, "My cousin always spoils me. If he is worried about me, why doesn't he visit me himself? He unexpectedly entrusted an outsider?""Your brother is so drunk today that when he asked me to do this, he was still talking
