Chapter 6: The National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance of Suoning Bing

Moreover, the gates of the Earl's residence are tightly shut, and no sounds can be heard from within. It is unclear why this grand Earl's residence exudes a sense of desolation.

"Jingyu, are you back? Where is Suolen?" Her voice was slightly hoarse, as she had cried too much

The royal city of Zhidu is truly vast, with the streets completely crowded. Some women are dressed revealingly, exposing most of their skin, while others are entirely enveloped in robes, with only their eyes visible.

The beauty of Lady Suoning Bing, the daughter of the Earl of Tianshui City, is renowned throughout the kingdom, rivaling that of Princess Zhineng.

Then, several women quickly ran down from the upper floor, actually intending to leap directly onto the carriage

Lanling lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out. On a resplendent building, there stood a dozen or so women dressed in revealing attire, posing provocatively. Upon seeing Lanling's face, the group of women immediately erupted into a chorus of shrill screams: "Young Master Suoren has returned, Young Master Suoren has returned..."

After a moment, although no one was seen, Lanling caught a whiff of a peculiar fragrance, very faint yet ethereal and distant. Then, he saw a group of four people appearing from around the corner ahead, walking down the middle of the road.

Lanling quickly dismounted from the carriage and stood by the roadside with Ye Jingyu, slightly bending forward and lowering his head. Looking at the other carriages on the road, they all came to a stop, and the nobles inside the carriages got out and stood by the roadside, bending forward in silence.

These four individuals were completely enveloped in snow-white robes, with only their eyes visible. ... Their faces were indistinguishable, but their figures were graceful and enchanting, their gazes ... . ... How should I put it, this was the first time Lanling had seen such a gaze, one that radiated a pure and holy light, as if it could purify the soul of a person.

Ye Jingyu awkwardly said: "The young master Suo Lun used to frequent places like this, and I don't know how much money he has lost. Therefore, the women in the entertainment venues all know him and treat him like an ancestor"

I found someone impersonating the Dark Lord Sauron, returning to inherit the title. Nightingale did not rise, still kneeling straight on the ground, saying: "I am audacious and reckless, please punish me, Miss."

"Butler, I have returned." Ye Jingyu said

Lanling boarded the carriage without uttering a word of inquiry, despite his great curiosity

During the lifetime of the Earl, due to his prolonged illness and the debauchery of the young master Soren, the Earl's residence was long dominated by the young ladies, who held absolute authority.

... ...

The four individuals walked swiftly, yet it seemed as if they were completely invisible in their movements, as if they were gliding past the crowd. The entire street was enveloped in utter silence

The carriage traveled for a quarter of an hour in the inner city before suddenly coming to a stop. Ye Jingyu spoke up, saying, "Young master, we have arrived home"

Noticing her nervousness, Lanling couldn't help but smile at her, offering reassurance

Ye Jingyu leaped down from the steed and quietly instructed at Langling, "Quickly dismount and stand by the roadside, bending your waist and lowering your head, in a respectful and solemn manner"

The young master Suoren has already died, presumably due to some kind of energy field in the ruins of the Tianmo Mountain Range said Ye Jingyu

Then, these women boldly lifted their garments and desperately called out towards Lanling

At this moment, she stood before Ye Jingyu, wearing a snow-white long dress. The hairstyle of a married woman indicated that she had been married before, and a strip of white cloth tied above her head signified that she was in mourning.

"Is it true that Young Master Sauron has returned in the carriage?" Suddenly, a woman's voice filled with surprise rang out from outside.

In his early years, when he was only thirteen, Count Solon brought her to a royal banquet. King Zhi Bian once marveled, saying: "All the essence of Lake Tian Shui is embodied in your daughter; she is truly a fairy of Tian Shui."

The Earl of Tianshui's residence is located within the inner city of the royal capital, where all the noble families of the kingdom reside

Sornin Bing was suddenly staggered, and the tears that had dried up gushed out like a spring. She tightly covered her small mouth with her jade-like hand, letting out a mournful sob. Then she could no longer stand and directly fell into the chair.

The Earl's residence is closed to visitors; esteemed guests, please leave your names, and my master will come to apologize another day.

Only after the four women in white robes had completely departed did everyone reboard the carriage and continue their journey

Suoning Bing's exquisite little face changed, and then she nodded

Suddenly, Lanling felt an overwhelming pressure. On Earth, he was a pure and innocent young man, but now being forced to impersonate such a debauched playboy was truly quite difficult

To be honest, Ye Jingyu is quite nervous and even worried right now. This idea of having Lanling impersonate Suolun was entirely her own decision, and the young lady is still unaware of it. Although the young lady treats her like a sister, she has indeed overstepped her authority in this matter.

Meanwhile, the maids and servants in the Earl's residence came out of the house one after another to pay their respects to Ye Jingyu, their gazes directed towards her back

The young master of the Su family is the only heir of the family. If he dies, the royal family will take the opportunity to reclaim the territory of Tianshui City. The two hundred years of foundation of the Su family will be destroyed in an instant

Suo Ningbing was instantly filled with greater anguish, crying out: "It is my failure to properly educate Xiao Lun. If I had been stricter and prevented him from overestimating himself in pursuing Princess Zhi Ning, he would not have died, and the foundation of the Suo family would not have been severed"

Ye Jingyu sighed inwardly, considering the absurd personality of the young master Soren, which no one could manage. Although he was somewhat afraid of facing this gentle yet strict sister, he could stay away from home for an extended period.

Ye Jingyu did not respond and directly walked into the Earl's residence

"Young Master Soren, please come quickly, we are dying to see you..."

Indeed, it is a mansion of jade and gold, truly a courtyard deep and profound.

Even the noble carriages move slowly in the royal city, as there are simply too many people.

What happened? Have you arrived at the Earl's residence? asked Lanling

Sornin Bing was instantly stunned, unable to believe as he gazed at Ye Jingyu

This clean and kind smile instantly endeared Ye Jingyu, and taking a deep breath, she stepped forward to knock on the door

If Miss does not agree to let Lanling impersonate Sauron in such a significant matter, then Ye Jingyu would truly be in serious trouble

Understood. Lan Ling nodded, and the term "Divine Dragon Holy Temple" was immediately etched deeply in his mind; this should be the most transcendent theocratic faith organization in this world

The blue wall stands a full four to five meters high and stretches several hundred meters long, with no end in sight. It completely obstructs the view of the scenery within, with only the occasional flowering tree daring to peek over the wall.

"Young master, please wait here for a moment while I go in to report to the young lady," said Ye Jingyu.

Ye Jingyu wrinkled his nose and said, "The cup is still so smelly"

Lanling curiously gazed through the window at everything outside, all of which was real and far more visually striking than what was seen in movies. Especially this city, which is a blend of Chinese and Western elements, is something that cannot be seen in films.

The two large stone lions at the entrance, the vermilion gate, and the massive plaque gilded in gold

Inside the carriage, Lanling felt a sudden chill run down his spine; the Soren he was impersonating was undoubtedly a frequent visitor to the pleasure quarters, otherwise these courtesans would not be so enthusiastic.

There is no doubt that this is a brothel

Suo Ningbing shuddered and said, "You speak, you get up and speak."

Thus, the nickname "Suo Ning Ice Sky Water Fairy" began to spread, becoming renowned throughout the entire Angry Wave Kingdom as a stunning beauty

On both sides of the wide bluestone street, there are mostly long and tall walls, behind which are the estates of noble families

Ye Jingyu directly swung the whip to increase speed, shaking off the approaching courtesans, and hastened towards the count's residence

She is haggard and frail, yet possesses an unparalleled beauty, truly resembling a fairy. The originally stunning Ye Jingyu pales in comparison to her beauty, instantly becoming three parts dimmer.

... ...

What they are most concerned about is whether Master Soren has returned. It is not that Soren is particularly beloved, but rather because if Soren does not return, the Earl of Tianshui's residence will cease to exist. Without the skin, where will the hair attach? They too will be left homeless

In a short period of time, she lost her only two relatives in succession, and in an instant, she felt completely devoid of any desire to live

The fragrance of women's cosmetics, the scent of men's sweat, the odor of the sewer, the aroma of street food, countless scents blend together to form a very strange and complex odor

Lánlíng's heart suddenly skipped a beat, inexplicably filled with a wave of tension, even though this tension had no apparent reason.

He couldn't help but be taken aback. Who is this important person passing by? Could it be someone from the royal family?

However, the gilding on the plaque seems to have faded somewhat, and the trees inside the surrounding wall appear to have grown somewhat untidy, as if they have not been pruned for some time

Due to the wide road and the sparse population, the speed of travel increased significantly. While we were racing along and admiring the beautiful scenery outside the window, the carriage suddenly came to a halt

Ye Jingyu closed the door and, after confirming that there was not a single person around, said in a low voice: "Miss, no matter what I say next, you must not make any sound and ensure that a third person does not hear it"

"Miss, I have found a way to continue the century-old legacy of the Su family," Ye Jingyu said, and then knelt down straight, saying, "However, I acted very rashly and overstepped my authority in this matter"

This is the Snow Garment Messenger of the Divine Dragon Temple, the messenger of the divine in this world. No matter where you encounter them in the future, you must stand quietly by the roadside, not raise your head, not move, and not utter a single word

Suddenly, there was silence inside, and then the door swung open quickly. An old man trembled as he asked, "Lord Ye, where is the young master..."

He pushed open the car door and gazed at the Count's mansion before him

The buildings within the royal city are almost as densely packed as the crowd, with numerous five- and six-story high rises standing in close proximity to one another

On Earth, Lanling is merely a barely comfortable household, residing in a house that is over twenty years old, with an area of just under one hundred square meters. In contrast, the Earl's mansion spans at least a hundred acres, which indeed overwhelms one with its imposing presence.

... ...

Upon entering the inner city, the scent of the air immediately transformed, becoming fragrant and pleasant. The roads also suddenly became flat and wide, and the number of people decreased, with only luxurious cars passing by.
