There is relief, anticipation, and also a trace of worry.
In the end, he didn't say anything more. With a flicker, he disappeared from the quiet room like a ghost.
It was as if it had never existed.
After Wu Zhu left, the quiet room returned to peace once again.
Yan Lingji looked at Ye Tian, her beautiful phoenix eyes filled with endless admiration and love!
She had just witnessed the breathtaking battle between Ye Tian and Wu Zhu!
I also witnessed firsthand how Ye Tian, with his formidable strength and unfathomable cunning, completely subdued Wu Zhu, a long-established grandmaster!
At this moment, she felt that her master was simply a god-like being!
"Owner,"
Yan Lingji walked slowly to Ye Tian, her voice soft and charming, with a hint of intoxicating tremor.
Her bright, fiery eyes were filled with undisguised love and longing!
She reached out her slender hand and gently stroked Ye Tian's handsome, ethereal face, her eyes filled with infatuation.
"You are truly amazing."
"Yan Ling Ji, it is truly my great honor to be able to follow you."
As she spoke, her body gradually moved closer to Ye Tian.
The soft, supple touch and the intoxicating fragrance emanating from her body made Ye Tian's heart beat faster once again.
He could clearly feel the burning desire emanating from Yan Lingji, and the heart that was beating wildly for him.
However, just as this enchanting and ambiguous atmosphere was about to reach its climax...
Ye Tian suddenly reached out and gently pushed Yan Lingji away a little.
"Flame Spirit Princess".
His voice carried a hint of clarity, and a hint of helplessness.
"Now is not the time."
He knew that if he didn't stop it, things might really escalate into a fight.
Although he wasn't entirely indifferent to Yan Lingji, this peerless beauty.
But he knew even more that he had more important things to do now.
His affections for his children will only erode his fighting spirit and cloud his judgment.
Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji's delicate body trembled, and the smile on her face instantly froze.
Her bright eyes were filled with unbelievable hurt and grievance.
It's happening again.
Why, why every time, when she mustered all her courage and wanted to give everything she had to this man...
He always finds all sorts of reasons to reject me?
Am I really that unattractive?
Or is it that he doesn't love himself at all?
Seeing Yan Lingji's tearful and pitiful appearance, Ye Tian felt a pang of unease.
He knew that it was indeed somewhat cruel of him to reject a woman who loved him deeply time and time again.
But he knew even more that if he accepted her now...
Then, he will no longer be able to face future challenges with a pure mindset.
"Yan Ling Ji, trust me."
Ye Tian looked at Yan Lingji with sincerity and a hint of apology in his eyes.
"After I have finished dealing with everything."
"I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
His voice carried an undeniable firmness.
As Yan Lingji listened to Ye Tian's "promise," the grievances and resentment in her heart gradually dissipated.
Instead, there was a strange sense of anticipation and sweetness.
She knew that her master was always a man of his word and always kept his promises.
Since he said so, then it will definitely come true.
"Then, I will wait for you."
Yan Lingji wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and a charming smile returned to her face.
However, there was a hint of melancholy and a deep longing in that smile.
Ye Tian looked at her, smiled slightly, and said nothing more.
He knew that some things were best left unsaid.
Talking too much can backfire.
The quiet room returned to peace once more.
But that ambiguous and alluring atmosphere lingered in the air for a long time.
···········
After months of arduous travel, Fan Xian, a young man from Danzhou, finally arrived in Kyoto, a city where great events converge.
His purpose in coming here was not only to fulfill his marriage contract with Lin Wan'er, but also to meet his mysterious older brother, Ye Tian, who shared the same "secret" and also came from Earth.
The moment Fan Xian stepped into the Fan residence, his heart was filled with trepidation and anticipation.
He had no idea what fate awaited him.
I have no idea what kind of story will unfold between me and that brother I've never met.
Guided by the servants of the Fan family, Fan Xian soon met his nominal younger sister, Fan Ruoruo.
After several years apart, Fan Ruoruo has grown into an even more graceful and beautiful young woman.
That unique scholarly air, and the faint melancholy between her brows, made her look like a pure and untouched orchid in a secluded valley, inspiring longing in all who beheld her.
Fan Xian looked at Fan Ruoruo in front of him and a warm smile appeared on his face.
"Brother Fan Xian."
When Fan Ruoruo saw Fan Xian, her eyes lit up and a surprised smile appeared on her face.
She always had a very good impression of this nominal brother.
I felt that although he was somewhat cynical, he was an upright and kind person with considerable talent.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Fan Xian couldn't wait to steer the conversation toward the person he cared about most on this trip.
"Little sister Ruoruo, I heard that you are quite familiar with Young Master Ye Tian, who was adopted by Her Highness the Eldest Princess?"
Fan Xian asked tentatively.
Upon hearing this, Fan Ruoruo's pretty face instantly flushed red, and a hint of shyness and sweetness flashed in her eyes.
Following the updates on Cola Novels has never been so enjoyable.
"Brother Ye, Brother Ye Tian,"
She murmured the name, a fascinated smile on her face.
"Brother Ye Tian, he's really amazing!"
He was not only the "Flower Burial Gentleman" and "Sleeping Dragon Gentleman" who were famous throughout Kyoto,
He wrote timeless masterpieces like *Dream of the Red Chamber* and *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*!
"He's also a young, incredibly skilled doctor! He even cured my chronic tuberculosis that I've had for years!"
"And what's more, Brother Ye Tian even wrote a poem for me!"
As she spoke, Fan Ruoruo's face was filled with happiness and pride.
She recited the poem "Qing Ping Diao" that Ye Tian had written for her, word by word.
His expression and tone were as if he were showing off his most precious treasure.
As Fan Xian listened to Fan Ruoruo's endless praise of Ye Tian, filled with admiration and love, he felt a pang of unease.
He admitted that his older brother, whom he had taken for granted, was indeed exceptionally outstanding!
She was so outstanding that even he was a little jealous!
However, he was even more curious about what kind of person this "fellow countryman" from the same Earth was.
.
The Imperial Palace, the Imperial Study.
Emperor Qing listened to Hong Sixiang's report that Fan Xian had arrived in the capital, and his brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
A strange sense of unease welled up in his heart once again.
Ye Tian, that prodigy, has already given him enough of a headache.
Now, another one has arrived: Fan Xian, who is also Ye Qingmei's son.
Moreover, this Fan Xian seems to be no ordinary person either.
This filled Emperor Qing's heart with unease and a hint of apprehension.
He always felt that Ye Qingmei's two sons were like two time bombs, which could bring him unexpected "surprises" at any time.
"Your Majesty, Fan Xian's trip to the capital is ostensibly to marry Miss Lin."
Hong Sixiang said cautiously.
"Look at this marriage..."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing's eyes narrowed slightly.
He thought of Lin Wan'er, whose tuberculosis had been cured by Ye Tian and who had grown into an even more beautiful and charming woman.
He also thought of his younger sister, Li Yunrui, who controlled the internal treasury's finances but whom he increasingly felt was out of control.
A bold and insidious idea suddenly arose in his mind.
"Issue my decree."
Emperor Qing spoke calmly.
"To betroth Lin Wan'er to Fan Xian."
"Furthermore, Fan Xian shall be married immediately!"
"After the marriage, Fan Xian will take over the Imperial Treasury!"
What?!
Upon hearing this, Hong Sixiang was terrified!
He stared at Emperor Qing in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock and a hint of confusion.
He knew that His Majesty had always doted on the eldest princess.
It is also known that the power over the Imperial Treasury has always been the most important asset in the hands of the Princess.
Now, His Majesty actually intends to hand over the Imperial Treasury to Fan Xian?!
This is clearly an attempt to strip Her Highness the Princess of her power!
Could it be that His Majesty has also become suspicious of Her Highness the Eldest Princess?!
Or is His Majesty trying to use Fan Xian to keep Ye Tian in check?!
Hong Sixiang's mind was filled with countless questions.
But he dared not ask any further questions and could only respectfully reply, "This old servant obeys."
Emperor Qing watched Hong Sixiang's departing figure, a cold smile curving his lips.
Li Yunrui,
Ye Tian,
Fan Xian,
You pawns that I cannot control, let you fight among yourselves!
I want to see who will have the last laugh!
.
The Princess's Residence.
When Li Yunrui learned that Emperor Qing had actually issued an edict to marry Lin Wan'er to Fan Xian and to put Fan Xian in charge of the Imperial Treasury,
Her stunningly beautiful face instantly turned ashen!
She also smashed the teacup in her hand to the ground, shattering it into pieces!
"Outrageous! Outrageous!"
Li Yunrui was trembling with rage, his eyes filled with fury and resentment!
She knew that Emperor Qing was targeting her!
This is depriving her of her rights!
This was a warning to her: don't have any more improper thoughts about Ye Tian!
"Brother, how cruel you are!"
Li Yunrui said through gritted teeth, his voice filled with endless hatred.
She sacrificed so much for Emperor Qing!
For the sake of the Qing Kingdom, she managed the Imperial Treasury, working tirelessly day and night!
But now, Emperor Qing is actually going to sacrifice her because of an outsider, because of Ye Qingmei's son?!
How could she not hate! How could she not resent!
"Since you are so heartless, don't blame me for being unjust!"
A glint of madness flashed in Li Yunrui's eyes!
She wanted to make Emperor Qing pay a terrible price for what he had done today!
Her method of revenge was to seduce the current crown prince!
The eldest prince was born to the empress and was one of Emperor Qing's most valued sons.
If one could control the eldest prince,
Then she would have the power to challenge Emperor Qing!
Even, replace it!
A sickly and insane smile appeared on Li Yunrui's face.
She immediately picked up her pen and wrote a letter full of ambiguity and temptation.
Then, he secretly sent a trusted confidant to deliver it to the First Prince's residence.
A massive storm surrounding power, love, family, and forbidden romance is about to erupt in Kyoto!
Ye Tian and Fan Xian, these two transmigrators from another world...
They will also be unknowingly drawn into the eye of this storm, playing a crucial role!
