The Earth Is My Dantian - Chapter 65

Chapter 65 Chapter 10, eldest sister’s anger (fourth update)

At night, Ye Sheng was stopped by a carriage from the palace.

“Young Master Ye Sheng, this old servant is Noble Consort Ye’s father-in-law. Please get on the carriage. Noble Consort Ye wants to see you,”an amiable-looking old eunuch said softly.

Ye sheng smiled and said, “I’ve seen you before. You’re called eunuch Lin, right?”

“Young Master Ye Sheng, you have a good memory. This old servant’s surname is Lin. Please get on the carriage. Noble Consort Ye wants to see young master,”eunuch Lin said with a smile. Ye Sheng looked at the gorgeous carriage and got on it. Eunuch Lin also followed him in. There was a lot of space inside, and the two of them did not seem to be crowded at all. There were even tea sets and decorations; the imperial family’s things were quite extraordinary.

Da Da Da!

The two horses pulled the carriage and sped off, and a grim-looking imperial soldier drove the carriage towards Great Qin’s strictest imperial palace.

In the carriage, eunuch Lin made tea, and he smiled as he said, “The noble consort knows everything that young master Ye Sheng has been doing in Jixia Academy.”

Ye Sheng’s eyes lit up, and he asked, “Big Sister Knows?”

“Of course. When you first entered Jixia Academy, you did not acknowledge anyone as your master. You studied with Priest Qingxu for a day, and you studied with Zi Yuantian for another day. After hearing about it, the noble consort was so anxious that she had to write to you, and she advised you not to look too far ahead, “eunuch Lin said.

Ye Sheng was embarrassed to smile.

“I might as well acknowledge you as Daoist Qingxu. When the noble consort found out about it, she was very happy. That day was one of the happiest moments when I saw the Noble Consort.”Eunuch Lin Sighed.

When Ye Sheng heard this, his heart felt warm. His eldest sister was treading on thin ice in the palace. She actually cared about him.

“Young Master Ye Sheng, you offended the Hu family this time and crippled Hu Yun. This made the noble consort secretly anxious, “eunuch Lin said softly.

Ye Sheng picked up a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. He put down the cup and said, “The Hu family has gone too far. The teachers of the Lower Academy of Hu Yunji also support it. There’s no need to worry.”

Eunuch Lin poured another cup of tea for Ye Sheng, he said, “This old servant is not worried about you, Young Master Ye Sheng. You are blessed by the heavens, and your master is Daoist priest Qing Xu. Naturally, there’s no harm. However, the noble consort hurriedly asked this old servant to invite Young Master Ye Sheng into the palace tonight, which frightened this old servant.”

Ye Sheng smiled embarrassedly and said, “It’s Ye Sheng’s fault for making you worry.” This old eunuch was someone his eldest sister trusted, and Ye Sheng had a good impression of him for some reason. In addition, he had a gentle attitude, so he could be considered a good person.

“Enter the palace. Young Master Ye Sheng and I will go together. Don’t look around. The palace is even more unsafe than the outside world, ‘eunuch Lin said as if he was pointing out something

Ye Sheng nodded. Since ancient times, the emperor’s harem was a place where there was no bloodshed. The women in the Ye residence were powerful when they fought, but compared to the imperial concubines in the palace, it was a piece of cake. His eldest sister was able to sit firmly in the harem, she even received the emperor’s favor. Ye Sheng did not need to think to know how many plots and tricks were scheming against her.

“It’s not easy for big sister either, “Ye Sheng said with a sigh.

Eunuch Lin smiled in relief. “As long as young master Ye Sheng cultivates hard and becomes a talent as soon as possible, he will be the best support for the Noble Consort.”

Ye Sheng nodded silently. For a moment, his thoughts were heavy. It was not easy for his seemingly glorious big sister either. If he was not careful, she would be doomed. She was even more dangerous than Ye Sheng in the Ye residence.

Eunuch Lin did not say anything. He focused on making tea and changing it for Ye Sheng. His movements were light, and it was very enjoyable.

Just like that, an hour later, Ye Sheng saw the Great Qin imperial palace.

Within Xianyang, it was the largest palace. The current Emperor’s residence was guarded by countless experts. It was the safest place in the world, but at the same time, it was also the most dangerous place. With the imperial guards driving the carriage, it was smooth and unobstructed. Very soon, they arrived at the harem.

Next time, Ye Sheng would walk with eunuch Lin. One after the other, they walked in the wide and secluded alley. The moonlight shone on them, illuminating a sense of loneliness and desolation.

There were not many beauties in the huge harem, so there were fewer maidservants and servants. It was very desolate.

After walking for fifteen minutes, eunuch Lin and ye Sheng both arrived at Noble Consort Ye’s garden very quickly.

It was a huge garden with a huge lake. There were three bridges built on the lake, and there were pavilions along the shore where willow trees were planted. When the evening wind blew, the willow branches flew in the air.

After crossing the lake, there was a garden. Hundreds of flowers were in full bloom, and their fragrance filled the air. Under the moonlight, some of the flowers were emitting a sparkling radiance. It was very beautiful.

After walking further, there was a forest of rockery. It was about a mile long, and there were fallen leaves in late autumn. Walking on it, one could also feel a different feeling.

Passing through here, one could see the bamboo forest. It was very long and there were all kinds of bamboos. They were green, purple, like white jade. There were also red bamboos that formed a sea of bamboos.

These beautiful scenes surprised Ye Sheng. In Xianyang, it took a lot of effort to plant all kinds of seasonal plants together. It could be seen that big sister was very favored.

There was a bamboo house in the sea of bamboo. The lights were slightly cold, but no one lived there.

“His Majesty and the Noble Consort occasionally live there once or twice to enjoy the different scenery,”eunuch Lin explained in a low voice.

After walking through the sea of bamboo, they saw the eldest sister’s palace.

The lights were bright. Although there were lights in the place they had walked before, it was a little dim. Once they crossed the sea of bamboo, it was as if it was daytime. The Shadows of Ye Sheng and eunuch Lin lengthened as they entered the huge palace one after the other.

The Imperial Consort Palace!

This was the eldest sister’s residence. Although it was spacious and grand, when Ye Sheng came in and took a look, it was very simple and elegant. There were no gorgeous decorations and it was very comfortable to look at. The color combination could make one’s mood calm down.

“Twelfth brother, you sent a message through the quasi-sage family. What’s the matter?”Imperial Consort Ye walked out with a long robe draped over her shoulders and asked ye Sheng kindly. The eldest sister was the only one in the entire palace. The maidservants and eunuchs were all ordered to retreat a thousand meters away. They could not hear a single sound.

Eunuch Lin led ye Sheng in while he retreated to the side. He kept his eyes on his nose and heart and did not say a single word.

“Eldest sister, take a look at this letter.”Ye Sheng handed over the letter written by King Ye.

Noble Consort Ye received the letter with a calm expression. Her face was livid at first glance. After hurriedly reading through it, her entire body emitted a chilly air, as if she had fallen into the icy plains of the extreme north.

“The old lady is old and muddle-headed. Do you think we are still young?”The eldest sister sneered and said angrily.

Ye Sheng did not say a word.

“My twelfth brother is so outstanding that even Priest Qingxu has taken you as his disciple. You can’t even compare to those good-for-nothings that she values. Are you forcing me to make a move?”The eldest sister became angrier as she spoke. She slapped down fiercely, the table made of Agarwood suddenly cracked. “Elder sister, be careful of getting hurt,”ye Sheng said with concern. “I’m fine. She really thinks I’m just a decoration. I already warned her the last time I went back to the manor, but she still doesn’t know how to restrain herself. She summoned you back and made you stay by her side to be filial. Is she going to die?”The older sister was so angry that her pretty face was ice-cold, her tone was indignant.

“If she’s going to die, I’ll go back personally and burn some paper for her. There’s no need for my twelfth brother.”The Big Sister’s eyes shot out a cold light, and the temperature in the entire hall dropped to the freezing point.
