Chapter 2.1: Looks that Brings Down Cities
The Blue Waves Kingdom was a kingdom that sat beside mountains and lay by the water, with an highly advantageous geographical location. Its population was numerous, its people honest and guileless. Hence, under the current situation where three countries stood in balance against each other, they still held a slight edge over the other two kingdoms.
The reason that Blue Wave Kingdom had such an advantage was not just due to its superior geographical location but also in part because they had a farsighted Emperor.
The Blue Wave Kingdom also had the Duke of Eternal Peace who was invincible in battle. With just the name of Yan Su there in the kingdom, it already drove fear into the hearts of the generals from the other countries.
In recent years, his eldest son Yan Xi Cheng’s reputation had been rising fast as well, having followed the Duke of Eternal Peace to win quite a bit of merit in battle. Just twenty years of age and he had already been bestowed with the t.i.tle of a general, the place the Yan Family had in the Emperor’s heart clearly evident.
"Princess, his Highness and the general will be returning back to the capital today and the entire place is already filled with citizens outside but you do not seem to be anxious in the slightest." A servant maid with two hairpins stuck in her hair muttered as she put on the last pearl hairpin for the lady.
The lady before the bronze mirror looked up, and it was an amazing sight.
The first thing that shone out before one’s eyes was upon the flawlessly fair skin on her forehead, there was a faint pinkish bloom, that looked exquisitely enchanting.
That was not a result of deliberate embellishment upon that fair skin, but a pristine and saintly flower that she had been born with, and that flower had a beautiful name, called Ardent Violet.
A daughter born to the Eternal Peace Duke’s Manor sixteen years ago, where a good half of the the sky had turned red then, the shape of the colourful clouds had formed to resemble a soaring phoenix.
The Blue Wave Emperor had been delighted and he immediately bestowed upon the newborn the t.i.tle of Princess "Phoenix Essence", where he even went on to order a pre arranged engagement to the Crown Prince, Xuanyuan Che in marriage.
Yan Ning Luo proved to become worthy of being like a phoenix. She was gifted and intelligent, her body’s const.i.tution highly outstanding, and she attracted the attention of the Faint Mist Sect’s Sect Leader, which was among the three biggest sects, who took her in as a direct disciple.
To the Blue Wave Kingdom, this was a matter of unparalleled honour and glory.
Yan Ning Luo was also an example the distinguished daughters of other n.o.ble families looked up to and not only men were infatuated and besotted with her, even the ladies could not resist her charms and allure.
Added to that, Yan Ning Luo’s personality was a little on the cold side. The countenance that could bring down cities together with that icy and snow cold demeanor, made her seem like a untainted celestial G.o.ddess descended, which made it all so reasonable that she was so highly sought after and revered.
The servant maid at her back was still muttering on when Yan Ning Luo suddenly stood up, which made the servant girl jump in shock. Just as her eyes were staring wide and looking highly helpless, the lady’s voice that was filled with grace and allure slowly wafted over. "Let’s go."
The servant girl then managed to react, fumbling as she hurried to pick up a thin veil at the side. "Princess, would you like to veil your countenance? There’s so many people out there today, if you go out just like that, you will definitely cause a great furore."
"No worries, I will not show myself." Yan Ning Luo said indifferently, and then went walking out of the room. Her gaze then suddenly turned towards a particular corner, where her eyes then darkened and she went on to order the help. "On a day like this, remember to watch them closely. Better not allow them to leave the house at all."
"Yes, Princess."
The Duke of Eternal Peace was highly favoured by the Emperor and in terms of all things material like food, clothes and expenditure, no one else could compare to him except for the Imperial Palace itself.
But within the vast Duke’s Manor, where everything was splendorous and majestic, a single place in there did not fit in with everything else at all. The place was remote and quiet, and besides the place the servants lived in, that was about the most crudely simple place in the entire manor.
Although the little courtyard was remote and very simple, but it was fantastically quiet and tranquil, a place where not many people would usually come.
There was a stone table in the yard outside, and a young youth was seated there, quietly reading a book. He looked to be roughly about thirteen or fourteen years of age, with a pair of exquisite looking eyes, the ends slanting upwards attractively that were bright and lively. He had clear smooth skin, a pair of light pink lips under that straight high bridged nose.
