It was the first time for Sheng Weiqiao's party, including Xu Baomo, to visit Chang'an.However, the fabulous sight of willows at the dock, which had been exalted by many poets in history, was diminished by the cover of winter snow.New Year's Eve was around the corner. It appeared even starker in the absence of pedestrians. As they watched, they felt more or less disappointed, though they didn't speak it out.They found nothing stunning until their carriages approached the circumvallation and a magnificent cityscape came in sight as if filling the space between the earth and sky.The spectacle offered by the impressive towers and defensive walls of this city which had been established as the capital ever since the last dynasty was incomparable to that of the cities they had seen in their life before.Like a giant beast soundlessly curling up there, though the large walls failed to manifest the luxuriance and prosperou

Because of Xu Baomo's slip of the tongue, Sheng Weiqiao threatened him on multiple occasions. She told him that she would act amicably in front of his parents so that she could marry him and torture him for the rest of his life.Thus, at the moment, Xu Baomo seemed like an extremely frightened bird.He was not aware that Sheng Weiqiao only helped him out of her guilty conscience.He thought to himself, "This tigress is charming my parents! She won the trust of my grandparents, and now she is being sweet and kind. My parents will definitely not suspect a thing about her! In this case, when all four of them agreed on this marriage, there is nothing I can do to stop it..."When he thought of that, he looked at Xu Zijing. He had not seen his father for a long time, and this reunion made him realize how powerful and strong his father was with his burly body and big shoulders! He climbed all the way to the title of Marquis from a low-ran

After all, she was young. She was so tired the night before that she almost fell asleep in the tub, but when she got up the next morning after having a good sleep, she was full of energy again.Because she was a guest in Marquis Mansion, Sheng Weiqiao got up half an hour early. When she was dressing up, she urged people to go to Jiaohuang Building and Qiezi Building to have a look at Sheng Weiwu and Gongsun Yingjiang, lest they woke up late and behaved impolitely in front of the people of Xu Family.Fortunately, the servants around the two also reminded them. When the maids dispatched by Sheng Weiqiao arrived at their places, they had already wakened up and were also primping.After a long while, the three of them finally dressed up and hurriedly came together before taking a closer look at the residence, and went to the back hall to greet Madam Nan.They didn’t expect that when they arrived, they found that Xu Caikui and Xu Caifu

At that time, the former emperor was deeply fond of Noble Consort Rou, so he wanted her son, Guangling King, to be the crown prince. However, Guangling King was nine years younger than the emperor now, and their father was not in good condition. The officials didn't want a young emperor for the good of the country, so all of them, especially Huan Guanlan, didn't want Guangling King to be the crown prince. The emperor then had to give up handing over his power to his favorite son after several failures.However, the emperor now was not his father's first choice given the situation above. Instead, his younger brother, Gaomi King, was the first choice then, who was only two years younger than him. Even though Gaomi King's mother didn't have a powerful family background, she was one of the nine beloved imperial concubines, and a close friend with Noble Consort Rou, while the Empress Dowager only got her title after she gave birth to her son.Gaomi King was hand

Sheng Weiqiao and the others were all looking at the Chinese cymbidium. After hearing her words, they saw a part of a purple robe inside the interlaced leaves of several camellia trees not far away. When they were about to ask, Zhao Taozhuang quickly walked around the flower trees in front of them. She walked in and asked, "Cousin, why are you here alone? Where are your servants?"Although people were open in this dynasty and it was not a big deal for young men and women without blood relationships to meet in private, Sheng Weiqiao thought that she was not familiar with Zhao Family after all. Furthermore, it was the first time for her to be here and she came here to make an apology. Since Zhao Taozhuang and the people inside did not invite them, she stopped. Before Sheng Weiwu and Gongsun Yingjiang came, they were asked to listen to Sheng Weiqiao's word, so they didn't move right now. Sheng Weiwu curiously poked her head out towards the back of the flower trees, but aft
