Chapter 771: Imprisonment 31
gh she broke the military rules and acted on her own this time, she didn't take any soldiers with her. After she was arrested, she even saved me. You could say she's my savior."Feng Lingxi nodded. "Y...Before the wind could lift her skirts, the man spoke, "Lady Luo, my master only invites the Fourth Royal Princess to Tianxiang Building."
Lu Ju's face flushed red and then pale. The owner of this Tianxiang Tower, her father had always wanted to meet this person, but no matter what he did, the person refused to see him. This person was extremely mysterious; no matter how hard her father tried, he couldn't find any clues about him or his identity.
"Jiu Zhou, would you like to meet the master of Tianxiang Lou"
The Noble Consort Shu walked to the front of Luo Juzhou's carriage and was about to speak when she heard the man say, "Noble Consort Shu, my master said that he only wants to see Fourth Princess alone. He does not want to see any other irrelevant people." Feng Lingxi couldn't help but glance at the driver in front of her. The polite yet elegant smile made her curious about the owner of this Tianxiang Tower. What kind of person was he to speak to her mother like that
He was nothing more than a coachman, but his demeanor and composure were beyond what ordinary people could possess.
"I don't know your master, and I have no idea what he wants from me"
Feng Lingxi did not answer Luo Juzhou's question, but asked the coachman instead, her gaze falling on a carriage in the distance. Whose master was inside that carriage
The coachman did not get angry. He glanced at the carriage behind him, "Hasn't the Fourth Princess always wanted to meet my master He knows the Fourth Princess is looking for him, and since he has free time today, he invites the Fourth Princess to dine with him at Tianxiang Building. This carriage is prepared for the Fourth Princess. My master is not here."
Feng Lingxi narrowed her eyes, did she want to see him
Could it be that the owner of this Tianxiang Building is the person who has been secretly helping her all along
Even the mysterious person who couldn't be found
Wind Ling turned to look at Empress Shu, meeting the confusion in her eyes. She politely said, "Empress Mother, I have something to do at Tianxiang Lou, so I'll take my leave."
"Should we leave the city after visiting Tianxiang Building"
Shu Tai Fei asked a question, Feng Ling Xi looked at her and nodded.
"Important matters on hand, I must take my leave."
Feng Lingxi finished speaking, and then took Xiao Li onto the carriage. No one was in the carriage, Feng Lingxi got on the carriage, and the carriage left.
"Jiu Zhou, who is the master of this Tian Xiang Lou Why do you seem so eager to meet him"
Shutai looked at Luo Juzhou's gritted teeth in confusion. She had been in the capital for so long, how could she not know what was so important about the owner of this Tianxiang Building
“Shutai Fei may not know this, but the owner of Xiang Lou today is a legendary figure in the martial arts world. No one has ever seen his true face. What makes people most curious about him is that he knows all the information about the world like the back of his hand. Moreover, his martial arts skills are mythical. Most infuriatingly, this man doesn't listen to anyone. Whether you are anyone, if he doesn't want to see you, even if you are the emperor, he won't.”
“How could there be such a person I’ve been in the capital for so long, how come I don’t know about them”
Luo Ju Zhou said angrily, "I heard it from my father too. Tian Xiang Lou is famous throughout the world, with branches everywhere. How could someone outside the Jianghu know about it It's like Yao Zu's leader Luo Li, who is well-known in the Jianghu. One is called 'Yan Luo Xiao,' and the other 'She Zi Lei.'"
"Yan Luo, I understand this concubine's smile, but what is this tear"
The imperial concubine Shu truly knows very little about matters of the Jianghu.
"The tears of the child are saying that the owner of this Tianxiang Lou, if he doesn't want to see you, no matter how much you offer him all under heaven, he won't see you."
Luo Ju Zhou said angrily, “Yan Luo Xiao is the head of the Yao clan. His identity has been exposed, but who dares to provoke him Everyone in the world knows Luoli as the head of the Yao clan, but everyone also knows that Luoli is Yan Luo Xiao.”
"This Luoli, I've actually seen him a few times. Just the other day, he even stayed at the manor for a few days. He doesn't seem as frightening as you say."
Luo Juzhou's eyes lit up, "Shutai, have you seen Luoli Do you know where he is now"
Shutai's reaction to Luojuzhou was a bit confused, "What do you want him for He is the same clan as Xi'er and a friend of Cheng'er. He just left a few days ago."
Luo Juzhou's smile vanished instantly. How could she forget Feng Lingxi's identity Wasn't it because of her status as the Saint Master of the Yao Clan that she was able to garner such deference from Empress Shu, the Empress Dowager, and the Emperor
Now, the owner of Tianxiang Building is looking for her. The two most elusive men in the world are both acquainted with Feng Lingxi, and Luo Juzhou's eyes are about to pop out of their sockets.
"Today, everyone is looking for him. Who wouldn't want to witness the infamous Yama King's smile"
The Shutai Empress’s gaze toward Luo Juzhou changed. She knew the attitude this empress held towards the Yao clan, and now this Luo Juzhou was like this too. Could it be, that King Pingxi also had thoughts about the Yao clan
Shutai's eyes narrowed slightly, her gaze flickering, and a slight smile played on her lips.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go back home and rest. It's almost dinner time."
Luo Juzhou's eyes flickered, and she suddenly said, "Shutai, I want to go to Tiangxiang Building for a while. You go back first, and I will be back after I finish my dinner."
Before Empress Dowager Shu could agree, Luo Juzhou had already run far away.
Shutai looked at her retreating figure and said softly, "Follow Lady Luo and protect her safety."
Tian Xiang Lou
Feng Lingxi dismounted her carriage and looked at the golden signboard of Tianxiang Building. She walked in, only to find that there wasn't a single customer inside. She looked puzzled at the coachman beside her.
"Why is there no one at Tianxiang Building today And you, aren't you a coachman"
"Your Highness, the Fourth Royal Consort possesses keen eyesight. I am indeed not a coachman. My name is Chu Xi."
"Hello, Young Master Chu."
Feng Lingxi greeted politely, and Chu Xi said again, "The host said that today's banquet invites the four princesses to have a meal together. Tianxianglou is closed today to avoid any disturbance and spoil the mood of the four princesses."
"That would mean a huge loss, wouldn't it"
This day, Xianglou's luxury is no worse than any other restaurant. The owner of Xianglou is really capable.
"My master is not short of silver."
Feng Lingxi was slightly taken aback, then smiled.
"Master Chu is witty and humorous, I presume your master is the same."
Chu Xi's smile froze for a moment before quickly returning to normal. She gestured towards Feng Lingxi, introducing her and leading her up to the second-floor private room of Tianxianglou.
When she opened the door, a round table in the middle of the room was piled high with delicious food. Even Fenglingxi couldn't help but feel hungry just looking at it.
A tall man stood by the window. Hearing someone enter, he turned around, a half-mask covering his features. Though his face was hidden, his black eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. One glance from them sent shivers down your spine. You instinctively looked away, unable to meet his gaze. It felt like a single look would expose the secrets of your heart.
"Master, the Fourth Princess has arrived."
Chu Xi introduced, looking at Feng Lingxi beside him, and smiled slightly, "Fourth Princess, this is the owner of our Tianxiang Building. The person you've been looking for."
"Talk less, get out."
The language was concise, the tone cold, but the voice was very pleasant.Coupled with Wang Yu's rapidly growing influence in court, if it hadn't been for Prime Minister Nan Gong Qi's assistance, he might have dominated the government. Emperor Yuan Zhao no longer cared muc...
