Quick Transmigration: She's a Heartbreaker: Ch 90, The Imposter Noble Lady Everyone was taken aback from just looking at her. The Fourth Prince’s peachy eyes were shiningly radiant, clearly he was attracted by Jiang Xun's beauty, while that cold-faced Kang Wangye only paused before quickly revealing a disgusted expression. He stared at Jiang Xun coldly, his face gloomy and unpredictable. Jiang Xun's bright eyes were like spring water. She only glanced at them lightly and then immediately lowered her head, "If you don't dislike it, everyone may drink if they please." The fourth prince, Yan Cong, pointed to the remaining tea cakes on the table, smiling, "The product of tea that is more valuable than dragons and phoenixes is called compressed tea. This tea cake is irrefutably clear, meticulously pressed but not too packed, which is the highest quality of Dragon Tea Cake. How can I dislike it? Isn’t that right, Imperial Uncle?" Kang Wangye, Yan Shen, didn’t answer. Instead he brought a cup of tea to his lips, but didn’t sip it. "What is Imperial Uncle hesitating for? You can only taste the freshness of such good tea while it is hot." Yan Cong smiled at Jiang Xun, and then he also lifted up a cup of tea, intending to savor it. Before even entering his mouth, the mellow aroma made him feel refreshed. "May I dare to ask which family is This Lady from? What is your name? Your tea art is actually so surprising, not inferior to those masters of the Tea-Battling Association." Yan Cong's interest towards Jiang Xun was already beyond words. Since everyone knew that the Fourth Prince was a lustful Casanova, his behavior at this time wasn’t surprising. This beautiful lady was truly too beautiful. It's no wonder that even the Fourth Prince, who had experienced many beauties, would be attracted to her. "Greeting His Royal Highness Kang Wangye and His Highness the Fourth Prince." Just as Jiang Xun was about to answer, the other people came over. The butterfly catching session was over, so the ladies returned from the flower garden. Someone recognized Yan Cong and Yan Shen and immediately came forward to salute them. "No need to be overly courteous." Yan Shen's voice was as indifferent as his person, making people afraid to approach him. As Yan Cong's gaze fell on the ladies, he smiled lightly. Many of the ladies were too bashful to look up, while some courageous ones were sneaking peeks at Yan Cong. Jiang Xun saw the crowd bowing, so she also bowed down. Now that everyone stood up, she also stood up and took a few steps back. Yan Yu Yue beckoned to her to come over. Jiang Xun wanted to walk out of the pavilion quietly. Who knows that Yan Cong has been paying attention to her and asked again? "You haven't told me which family’s lady you are or what's your name?" His tone was very ambiguous, which caused those noble ladies to glance at Jiang Xun in surprise. "Yun Rui, stop messing around." Kang Wangye reprimanded. Yun Rui was Yan Cong's courtesy name. Yan Cong raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Xun, as if forcing her to answer. Yan Yu Yue thought it might be because Jiang Xun was seeing these imperial family members for the first time. Today on the carriage, she was already a little worried. At this time, she was probably frozen in fear so she hurriedly stood up, "Replying to the Fourth Prince, she is my younger cousin, Aunt Nian'er's daughter, called Su Xun." When Yan Cong heard what Yan Yu Yue said, it suddenly dawned on him, "Oh? It turned out to be Younger Cousin Xun. I have long heard that Aunt Nian'er's Di daughter has returned. It turned out to be you." Old Madame Yan is the Junzhu as well as the aunt of the current Emperor from his maternal side. Yan Cong wasn’t wrong to call Su Xun cousin in terms of seniority. Yan Cong smiled. Looking at Yan Shen, he said playfully, "Imperial Uncle, this Lady Su is also your niece." Yan Shen still didn't say a word. The gaze that fell on Jiang Xun's face did seem to have gotten colder and the chill in his eyes was frightening. "Younger Cousin Xun's tea art is so good, how about I bring you to the Tea-Battling Association’s tea fight?" Yan Cong laughed. "What is the Tea-Battling Association?" Someone in the crowd asked the people around him in a low voice. "You don’t even know about the Tea-Battling Association? Every year during the Qing Ming Festival, new tea comes out, making it the most suitable time for tea fighting. The number of people who tea fights varies from a dozen to five or six people. Most of them are well-known scholars and shop owners. If it’s the famous tea shops tea-fighting, the surrounding streets will scramble to speculate, so it’s as lively as watching a game. Therefore, that’s why it is called a tea fight." Before Jiang Xun answered, Yan Shen said impatiently, "Didn’t you already invite a few laypersons for this tea fight? What are you inviting her for?" Jiang Xun lowered her head, thinking that this Kang Wangye was really annoying. Interrupting people at every turn, she didn't even have a chance to speak. "But if Younger Cousin Xun wants to come, it won’t affect anything to bring her along." "Enough, let's go, the others are still waiting for us over there." As soon as the group of noble ladies came over, Yan Shen could smell the scent of incense on the women's body, making him feel uncomfortable. Yan Cong said on a whim, "We made an appointment with your brothers and the ministers of the court to view the flowers together. Would you all like to join us? Like the saying says, the more the merrier. Things like marveling at flowers are still more fun with more people." The noble ladies were all tempted, but they were embarrassed to just say yes. Among them, Wei Ming Yu, the most courageous, asked, "May I ask the four princes, who will be there?" She had long heard that General Shen had returned to the capital, but it has been reported that he was ill at home and hasn’t gone to Court. Her older brother also refused to reveal the whereabouts of General Shen to her. She hadn’t held the hope to meet him this time, but she just heard that the Xiao family’s Second Young Master was coming and he has always had a good relationship with General Shen. If he was here, maybe General Shen would also be there. Thinking of General Shen, Wei Ming Yu’s face turned as delicate as a pink lotus and even her eyes lit up. Yan Cong narrowed his eyes, "Who? You’ll know once you go." Yan Cong's dawdling voice didn’t affect his handsomeness in the slightest. On the contrary, there was an even more attractive evil feeling added to him. The ladies who admired him blushed, not daring to look at him. Wei Ming Yu nodded, "We were going to have fun at the outing anyways, we might as well go together.” With Wei Ming Yu taking the lead, the other ladies also agreed. Jiang Xun quietly walked to the Yan family sisters. Yan Yu Yue reached out and took her hand as she asked in a low voice, "Is everything alright? What happened just now?" Jiang Xun shook her head, "I’m fine, it's just when I was making tea the Fourth Prince and Kang Wangye came and saw me." Yan Yu Yue furrowed her brows. Thinking about it, she still said, "Younger Sister Xun, Elder Sister needs to remind you that Fourth Prince, this person, is very amorous. He acts like that to every beautiful woman… …" Yan Yu Yue stopped halfway through her words to look at her expression for the fear of embarrassing her. Jiang Xun let out an "En" and smiled softer, "I understand, thank you Elder Sister Yue for reminding me. I won't take him seriously." Yan Yu Yue saying this to her seemed to be out of sincerity for her. Jiang Xun's attitude towards her should also be more sincere. Yan Xi Wu added, "My Elder Sister is right. That Fourth Prince broke the hearts of many of our sisters. Who knows whose girl he will marry in the end with him being so amorous?" Jiang Xun lowered her eyes and analyzed internally: This Fourth Prince was definitely not how he appeared, otherwise he wouldn’t be a superb son of Heaven. Since he is the prince and the superb son of Heaven too, she’s afraid he is a character who’s a tiger pretending to be a pig. In the future, it is impossible to say who will inherit the throne. It’s just that his acting skills are really superb that he managed to deceive so many people. Everyone in the world thought he was a ridiculously lustful embroidered pillow. The group followed the Fourth Prince and others to the peach blossom forest. At this time, the peach blossoms were still blooming. The trees were full of pink flowers, some half-opened and some half-closed. There were also petals falling from the trees, simply too beautiful. It turned out that there was still a small stream in the peach blossom forest. The gurgling sounds of the water were pleasant to the ear. Beside the stream was a pavilion and several tall camphor trees, which was lush. There are seven or eight men in the pavilion, all of them tall and aristocratic dressed. Those the least good-looking could at least be considered delicate and elegant. The luck aura on the handsomest two wasn‘t inferior to that of the Fourth Prince and Kang Wangye and were even denser than them. Jiang Xun couldn't help lamenting, this world was really good. Yet it also placed her in a difficult position. With this many sons of Heaven, how should she start? Is it possible for her to catch everything in one go? This time, these two sons of Heaven also have different styles. One was gentle and elegant with clean eyes and extremely handsome temperament. He had a gentle smile on the corners of his mouth that was like a warm spring breeze and sun. Jiang Xun recognized him as soon as she saw him. This was the Xiao Family’s Second Young Master who the original owner had an engagement with—— Xiao Wang He. If the Xiao Second Young Master was back, then that fake Su Xun should have followed him back to the capital by now. Another son of Heaven was even more eye-catching than Xiao Wang He. He has a graceful posture and a special temperament. Although his movements were casual, it gave off an unspeakable temperament like an banished immortal hermit. Yet he had a pair of amorous Phoenix eyes like Yan Cong. The difference was that there was frost between his eyebrows and a cold look in the depths of his eyes. "General Shen! It's really him." Jiang Xun heard Wei Ming Yu exclaim in surprise. Jiang Xun glanced back at her and saw her eyes fixated on that iceberg-like man. It turns out he was Shen Xi Tang. The original owner also knew this famous Shen Xi Tang, but she had never seen him before. There was no one in the ruling court and the public that did not know Shen Xi Tang. The Shen family was a century-old family clan in the capital. Its background wasn’t something those recently rising families can compare to, even the royal family’s origins weren’t as noble as the Shen family. The Shen family was originally a hidden clan, founded a hundred years ago that helped the country’s ancestors establish the land. They could be considered as the founding officials of the country. When it arrived in Shen Xi Tang's grandfather’s generation, their power slightly declined. Yet Shen Xi Tang turned the tide and firmly established the Shen family as the number one family. Right now he is only twenty seven, but he has already become a powerful general with military power in power as well as being deeply valued and dreaded by the Emperor. Among these men, only him had a powerful and unignorable aura. Most of the men here were scholars with him being the only martial artist, but he didn’t have the ruggedness of a martial artist. On the contrary, he was elegant and noble. No wonder they say he was the dream lover of all the capital’s noble ladies. Jiang Xun sneakily scanned him and couldn't help feeling that only such a man was worthy of being the superb quality son of Heaven. Jiang Xun's interest has been completely provoked by him. She definitely had to taste such a man to not make her trip in this world to be in vain. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Notes: courtesy name (表字): name given to used in life in place of one’s birth name as a symbol of adulthood usually at 20 Qing Ming Festival (清明节): also known as the Tomb-Sweeping Day to celebrate and honor the dead by sweeping the tombs, decorating it, burning money, food offering etc... ... embroidered pillow (绣花枕头): a slang used to describe those with gorgeous outer appearances, but a hollow inside (... just a pretty face)
