As the New Year approached in Imperial City, everyone was busy preparing to welco the new and bid farewell to the old.
The streets were filled with decorations and the air was filled with the sounds of joy.
Officials were in high spirits and worked diligently every day. After all, if they made a mistake at this crucial ti, they might beco the target of political opponents. If things went wrong, spending the New Year in a prison cell wouldnt be far-fetched.
Inside the Qin residence, Qin Feng opened the window, took a deep breath, and felt the refreshing touch of the winter air. The scent of a womans scent lingered, a scent emanating from his wife.
Under Qing Ers care, Qin Feng finished his morning routine and headed towards the lakeside pavilion.
From a distance, he saw Ningshuang dressed in blue practicing breath control techniques with his wife. They were refining their mastery of Martial Qi.
To his surprise, he noticed that Ningshuang could now stand in the air, indicating that she had precise control over Martial Qi. His wife had ntioned earlier that if a sixth-level martial artist could stand in midair, it ant that they were not far from reaching the fifth level, the realm of Divine Movent.
The two people in the lake pavilion heard the noise, looked at the corridor, and then stopped practicing.
Lan Ningshuang asked, Young master, are you going out?
Qin Feng nodded. With the New Year approaching, the Poor Scholar Academy was giving the students a break, so he had plenty of free ti.
Im going to the Divine Workshop today, and on the way, Ill visit the famous Imperial Excellance Shop in Imperial City to buy so jewelry and clothes for the won at ho.
Upon hearing this, Ningshuangs eyes lit up. There were many bookstores near Imperial Excellance, and she could also buy the latest story books to relieve her boredom when she had free ti.
Okay, Young Master, but since we are going to buy clothes, do you want to take the lady with you? After all, you have to asure her size. Lan Ningshuang suggested.
asuring? Qin Feng glanced at the graceful figure beside him. He had estimated her height countless tis, even with his eyes closed, he could roughly guess her height. Whether she left or not didnt matter.
However, since arriving in the Imperial City, except for visiting his father-in-laws house together, he had never gone shopping with his wife.
The first reason was that Liu Jianli was busy practicing and looking for an opportunity to enter the second level. Besides, he was often involved in all kinds of trivial matters, so it was difficult for the two of them to have any free ti.
Another reason was Lian Jianlis reputation. With her appearance, if she walked the streets of the Imperial City, she would likely attract a crowd and it will be troubleso.
After so thought, Qin Feng replied, Sure, but before we go, its best for Miss to disguise herself a bit.
Ningshuang and Lian Jianli exchanged glances, a hint of confusion in their eyes.
By the ti the three of them stepped out of the Qin Mansion, Lian Jianli had already donned a white silk scarf that covered her exquisite appearance, leaving only her bright eyes exposed.
In the Great Qian, the most popular places for won are undoubtedly three places.
The first is the Hundred Flowers Valley in the southern region, the second is Tushan Mountain in the western region, and the third is the Imperial Excellence in the Imperial City.
In addition to all kinds of exquisite jewelry and fragrant costics, Imperial Excellence also has impeccably crafted clothing.
As a result, there is an endless stream of won going in and out of Imperial Excellence every day.
Qin Feng had long expected that there would be a lot of people in Imperial Excellence, but he still underestimated the number.
He saw that the place was already crowded, and there were many won of all kinds waiting outside.
Lan Ningshuang stood on tiptoe, looked around, and said, Looking at the situation, it looks like well have to wait for at least another half an hour.
Is it always like this here? Qin Feng asked curiously.
Lan Ningshuang nodded slightly, Before Miss went to the Myriad Sword Sect, I ca here with Grandma Liu to buy clothes.
As the New Year approaches, the princes of the four regions will be making a pilgrimage, and many people will want to witness the New Years Eve Ceremony of the Imperial City, so they will all gather in Imperial City.
The reputation of Imperial Excellence is well known, so of course the won who co to Imperial City will think of buying jewelry or costics here, and there are also many people who customize clothes. Thats how it ended up being crowded with so many people.
I see. Qin Feng sighed inwardly. Indeed, won are willing to be patient when it cos to shopping.
If it were n, they would probably just think, Why not co back tomorrow?
Sir, how about you take the lady for a walk first and co back later? Ill stay here and take your place, Lan Ningshuang suggested.
Qin Feng shook his head, Lets wait together.
Alright.
The three of them waited patiently in the queue as ti passed by second by second.
Due to soone maintaining order, the line was orderly. When it was almost Qin Fengs turn, a sudden commotion erupted from behind.
Queue? From childhood to now, Ive never known what queuing was. Get out of my way! The voice was arrogant, accompanied by a loud slap.
Qin Feng and the others looked at the source of the sound and saw a young man dressed in purple, accompanied by an alluring woman, with a strong man as his bodyguard.
Although the seductive woman had a good figure and appearance, it was obvious that she was not from a respectable family. After all, who would dress so scantily in this freezing weather?
Its him. Qin Feng raised his eyebrows slightly as he recognized the young man in purple.
Back at the Start Seizing Tower, he had t Tang Fei, and if he rembered correctly, this was the son of the Minister of Finance, Zhou Yanli!
The girl who kept order covered her cheek, her eyes red with grief. She had only kindly reminded the other party to stand in line, but who would have expected such an outco?
The disturbance at the back of the line attracted the attention of many. So recognized the identity of the young man in purple, whispered, Son of the Minister of Finance, and silently moved aside.
Others, upon hearing his identity, also stepped aside, thinking its better to avoid unnecessary trouble.
As the saying goes, its unwise for commoners to confront officials; naturally, they preferred to keep a low profile.
And Zhou Yanlis reputation as a playboy is notorious in Imperial City. Who would be willing to touch his forehead for a girl?
With a cold smile, Zhou Yanli walked forward, accompanied by the charming woman and the bodyguard.
On the way, the charming woman flirtatiously said, Young Master Zhou, you have quite a presence. In the past, every ti I ca here, I had to wait in line. Never before has there been a day like today, where everyone is willing to make a way.
Upon hearing Zhou Yanlis words, he embraced the womans waist, gently pinching it, and said, As long as you serve well tonight, you can use my na whenever you co here in the future.
The glamorous woman covered her mouth and laughed, Tonight, I guarantee that Young Master Zhou will feel like hes in heaven.
In this corrupt world, manners are on the decline. People lowered their heads and showed their disgust.
However, when Zhou Yanli and the won arrived at the Imperial Excellences entrance, they found several people blocking their way.
Zhou Yanli frowned and said, Get lost!
Others thought that the young man in black would retreat with the two girls, but unexpectedly, without looking back, he remarked, On such a cold day, why are there still dogs barking in the streets?
