Surrounded by green mountains and clear waters, the chaotic night is a fleeting and beautiful scene, while the endless autumn rain falls in torrents, everything is filled with tenderness.
Surrounded by a beautiful woman, Xu Yunmu inhaled her delicate fragrance and chatted with her about everything under the sun. Meanwhile, Tantai Xue strolled down the corridor, her eyes sparkling, and said, "In this vast world, there is a standard; it all depends on how you measure it. A man uses a sword to make people submit, while a beautiful woman can easily make someone fall at her feet with a smile. Isn't it all about intentions?"
Xu Yunmu nodded in agreement, saying, "What you said makes perfect sense. Men's admiration for beauty is simply instinctive, just as beautiful women are attracted to heroes. It's a mutual attraction, but the key lies in one's true feelings. If there is genuine affection between two people, so what if they are captivated by beauty?"
Tantai Xuedao: "Is that so?"
Xu Yunmu added, "It's fine as it is for us."
Tantai Xue covered her mouth and laughed, "Anyway, you're not at a disadvantage."
Xu Yunmu, remembering the Tantai sword he had left with Monk Xingyan, said, "I wonder if Monk Xingyan is awake yet. I forgot the sword you gave me with him last night. I don't know if I can retrieve it during the day."
Tantai Xue said casually, "Don't worry about that. Today is a very important day. Monk Xingyan is going to the palace. I'll have someone personally deliver your sword to you when I have time."
Xu Yunmu said, "That's fine too."
Tantai Xue led him for a walk in the courtyard, and they gradually came to a place that smelled of fragrance. It was a place where food was served. At this time, the sky was beginning to lighten, and her maids and servants were busy steaming and cooking food.
Xu Yunmu was indeed hungry. As soon as he arrived at this crowded place and sat down, there was a charcoal brazier next to him, which was very warm.
Tantai Xue didn't shy away, and the two sat together in an ambiguous manner.
The moment the maid brought out the steaming hot buns, everyone felt even hungrier. Xu Yunmu, seeing this, said with great delight, "It's so nice here. You have someone specially preparing food before dawn. We don't get this kind of treatment at home."
Tantai Xue smiled and said, "The weather has been cold lately, and we've also borrowed treasures from the palace. A bunch of Qingling guards have arrived, so Lanxiang Residence has been quite busy. Right now, those Qingling guards are eating elsewhere, but I'm sure they'll be escorting the treasures away in a little while."
Xu Yunmu waited for the steamed buns to cool down before picking one up and eating it, saying, "By the way, aren't you and Tan Daozi good friends? That old man is at least seventy years old this year. What kind of person do you think he is?"
Tantai Xue, being a dignified and elegant lady, was beautiful in both her posture and her eating manners. She picked up a steamed bun with her delicate hand and ate slowly, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she smiled and said, "He was a very strange person. He only knew how to pursue what he considered the perfect painting. Everyone in the world respected him, and Emperor Murong valued him. Even so, the number of paintings he left for Northern Yan was very limited. Only powerful figures like Emperor Murong, Xiao Chengzong, and Guo Fengling were worthy of having Tan Daozi paint a single picture for them."
Xu Yunmu was eating vegetarian steamed buns, which were translucent and juicy with every bite, making them incredibly delicious. A brazier sat nearby, warming the buns. He asked contentedly, "Isn't Guo Fengling a scholar-general?"
Tantai Xue shook her head slightly, her eyes smiling, and said, "Don't underestimate Guo Fengling just because he's a scholar-general. He's a famous general of our time, even Xiao Chengzong values him highly. It's because he has the appearance of a scholar, but he's naturally imposing and has never lost a battle. Even with a bunch of arrogant and fierce generals under his command, he's the only one who obeys him. He's also the general most trusted by Emperor Murong. In terms of favor alone, even Xiao Chengzong can't compare to him."
Xu Yunmu picked up another steamed bun and said, "Xiao Chengzong is invincible; everyone fears him, and even the emperor is probably aware of it. This is because he's burdened by his reputation. I heard that Guo Fengling has a very good relationship with my father; is that true?"
Tantai Xue smiled and said, "Of course it's true. After all, birds of a feather flock together. Scholars admire scholars, and Guo Fengling himself has a good reputation in both literature and martial arts. In addition, he comes from a prestigious family and guards Beihai. He is known as Guo Beihai. His background is that of a family of renown, and his fiefdom is famously wealthy. Most importantly, the emperor trusts him."
Xu Yunmu asked, "What about Xing Rong?"
Tantai Xue shook her head and said, "The emperor himself is a scholar, and he only has eyes for scholars. Xing Rong and Huangfu Song are good at fighting, but they are not as favored as Guo Fengling and Li Daoji."
Xu Yunmu, vaguely aware of the situation, said, "I learned from the fairy sister that the emperor's favorite is the crown prince. In my opinion, who will assist the crown prince in the future? Besides Guo Fengling and Li Daoji, there is no one more suitable."
Tantai Xue placed her jade-like hand over the brazier and said, "This is all part of the Emperor's plan. Guo Fengling is a traditional scholar, and his most steadfast principle is loyalty and obedience to the Emperor. Therefore, the Emperor will inevitably entrust the Crown Prince to Guo Fengling, with Li Daoji also coming to assist him. With two such capable generals in charge, the Crown Prince will surely have someone to rely on."
Xu Yunmu asked curiously, "What about Xiao Chengzong? If Xiao Chengzong clearly supports the Crown Prince and obeys the new emperor, with such a military genius making a statement, let's see who dares to covet the divine artifact?"
Tantai Xue, her face full of mystery, shook her head and smiled, "I can't say, I can't say."
Xu Yunmu vaguely guessed what was going on, but dared not say it aloud, so he simply said, "However, I'll be frank with you. His Majesty is already suppressing Murong Yu. I'm sure someone as clever as you can see that."
Tantai Xue picked up a steamed bun, took a slow bite with her red lips, and said with a smile, "Young Master Xu, there's no need to rush. Eat something first to warm yourself up."
Xu Yunmu lowered his head and ate his steamed bun, his face full of deep thoughts, and Tantai Xue did not disturb him.
After a while, the maid brought in another bowl of soup, and the two of them slowly ate and drank it.
