Chapter 2226: Bowing before Mistress Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations “We still have money for a meal. Old man, tell me, how do we go to this Fragrant Pavilion?” Duan Ye asked the old man with a smile. He knew that Feng Jiu was a picky eater and especially fond of delicacies. Since she wanted to sit back and have a rest in this place, going to a good place was a must. “It’s not far. Just go straight ahead and turn left. After a short walk, you’ll get there.” The old man pointed in the direction. “Many thanks.” Duan Ye thanked him, then told Feng Jiu. “Let’s go to Fragrant Pavilion!” “Alright.” Feng Jiu answered. Together, they walked straight ahead and turned left at the corner. After a short walk, she caught a glimpse of a sign on top of a teahouse from the corner of her eyes and then smiled. “Go to Fragrant Pavilion first and wait for me there. I’ll be there shortly.” Feng Jiu motioned him to go first. Duan Ye looked back. He followed her gaze towards the teahouse, saw her smile, and then nodded. “That’s fine. I’ll order the dishes first while waiting for you. Come when you’re done.” “Yes.” Feng Jiu smiled and then strode towards the teahouse. Nowadays, various forces outside Heavenly Dynasty Palace had selected people mainly to inquire for news and secretly expanded their sphere of influence. However, she hadn’t seen many of them. She had only been in contact with Leng Hua and others as well as the eight Feng Guards. When she reached the street across the teahouse, she saw that the first floor was filled with people drinking tea and chatting. As soon as she entered the teahouse, she heard the lively talking and laughing inside as well as the faint sounds from the second floor. “What do you think? I told you this place was good, right? We can all see the guests of the opposite Fragrant Pavilion from this seat. Look, look. The two women at the table on the second-floor window are beautiful, right? One of them is the daughter of the City Lord. She often goes to Fragrant Pavilion for tea and snacks.” “The one sitting opposite is pretty, too, the one in a light blue dress.?I can’t take my eyes off her.” “There’s still another table. Do you see the guests at that table? Look at their faces, both men and women have outstanding looks, you can tell that they are not ordinary people.” “That’s right. Can the people who can enter Fragrant Pavilion be ordinary people? All who can have a meal and relax there has status.” Feng Jiu walked slowly inside while listening to the jumble of conversations inside the teahouse. She went to the counter and asked, “Shopkeeper?” She inquired while fixing her gaze at the middle-aged man. The shopkeeper was tidying up some things. He looked up when he heard her voice and was stunned for a moment. “Yes. What can I do for you, Miss?” Feng Jiu nodded. “It’s a bit noisy here. Do you have a quieter place?” Because of her beautiful face and dazzling red clothes, as soon as she entered the teahouse, all those on the first floor looked at her. “Yes, we have. Please come this way, Miss.” The shopkeeper had no idea what she wanted to do, but there’s still a quiet place available,?so he called a waiter to cover for him while he took Feng Jiu to the back. It was in the rear courtyard behind the building. It was beautiful and secluded. There was no one else there, except for the two breaths hidden in the shadows, of course. When the two men hidden in the dark saw that someone was coming, they took a quick look. After they saw the face of the woman in red clearly, they were surprised and flashed out in a hurry from their hiding place, giving a salute in an excited and deferential manner. “Subordinates bow before Mistress!”
