Section 2
The sound of galloping hooves approached rapidly from the shore. Suddenly, upon seeing them, the young knight with thick brows and fierce eyes was taken aback and pulled on the reins. The fiery steed beneath him, like a blazing flame, abruptly came to a halt in the midst of its spirited gallop, restlessly pawing the ground with its hooves, raising its head and whinnying.
Yunmeng gazed at the departing knight: "Did you see the precious single-edged sword at his saddle? The steed is a Red Hare, and the blade bears a wild goose feather. He is the Eighth Son of the Shi family from Lin'an, Shi Qing, the only external disciple of the Jin family from Guigu on Mogan Mountain. Besides being the chief steward of the Xuanwang Mansion, he may be the opponent we need to pay the most attention to today"
In today's Meiyuan, Tang Tingyu is the only variable she has been unable to control
On the vast and misty Taihu Lake, a magnificent ship slowly sails towards the eastern shore. Standing at the bow, Yunmeng basks in the spring sun, her tall figure wrapped in a pure black cloak. The lake breeze lifts her black hair and black veil, while the purple-gold crown adorning her hair catches the rising sun, reflecting a shimmering divine light.
Among today's visitors, there will also be an envoy from the Taiyi Temple. The information she received indicates that the Taiyi Temple has sent a disciple of the abbot, Master Huayang, who has not yet officially taken up his post, named Tang Tingyu. He is the same person who stood beside Zhao Peng during the last encounter over the East China Sea
On the seventh day of the first month in the ninth year of the Xianchun era, after a long snowfall, the skies over Taihu Lake have finally cleared. On Mount Dengwei, thousands of plum trees are in full bloom, and the scene is vibrant with the essence of spring
Stop for a moment, then the servant in the yellow shirt said: "Fang Tianji would never have expected that his seventieth birthday would attract such a distinguished guest as Miss."
The elder servant beside Yunmeng, wearing a light yellow shirt, said: "Miss, that is the Tianji Tower"
Yunmeng gazed at the layers of flying eaves, and her bright eyes, resembling the cold stars,瞬间闪起了奇异的亮采
Why does Taiyi Temple place such great importance on a disciple who has yet to embark on his journey? Is it because Tang Tingyu hails from the Tang family of Xiangzhong, a lineage of two generations of Tang Celestial Masters? Does Taiyi Temple intend to cultivate him as the next generation of Tang Celestial Master?
This time she will not repeat the mistakes made in dealing with Zhao Peng. Everything will be under her control
Yet a faint, elusive worry suddenly drifted through her heart
She has obtained the most detailed information about today's visitors
A faint smile appeared in Yunmeng's eyes
In Quanzhou, the carriage that came to meet Tang Tingyu was from the Prince Xuan's residence. The informants in Quanzhou reported that the people from the Prince Xuan's residence showed an unusual respect towards Tang Tingyu, which also made her uneasy; given the status of the Prince Xuan's residence, was it necessary for them to treat a disciple of Taiyi Temple, who had yet to make his mark, with such near reverence
The knight looked them up and down, unable to conceal his surprise and admiration. After hesitating for quite some time, he still shook the reins and, with some regret, continued to ride towards the Tianji Mansion
Deng Weishan is already in sight, amidst the myriad plum blossoms, a small building with flying eaves and flowing red is faintly visible.
The young maid in a yellow dress raised her eyebrows and said, "Miss, whose son is this? How bold and disrespectful he is."
