Chapter 77: Chapter 77 Ye Lingyue, You Country Bumpkin

After arriving in Li City, with a few days before the Refining Conference began, Ye Lingyue brought her newly brewed wine to the governor’s mansion to find Lan Cai’er.

To her surprise, she found Lan Cai’er was not there; upon inquiring, she learned Lan Cai’er was at the Drunk Immortal Inn, entertaining some distinguished guests from the Imperial City.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingyue went straight to the Drunk Immortal Inn.

Upon reaching the Drunk Immortal Inn, she asked the shopkeeper and found out that Lan Cai’er and the guests were in a private room on the second floor. Climbing the stairs, Ye Lingyue reached just outside the room and heard Lan Cai’er’s familiar voice.

"County Lord An, are you insinuating that my century-old monkey wine is too low-class to be sold at Drunk Immortal Inn?"

"Princess Lan, please don’t be mad. It’s just the wine I’m talking about, not you. Drunk Immortal Inn is among the top in Daxia, not just any random brew from a country hick can be sold here," came a proud yet slightly spoiled voice from inside the room.

"An Mingxia, I addressed you respectfully as the county lord for the sake of Duke An and Heir An. Do you really think you are so noble? You called Ling Yue a vulgar country woman; what are you then? Isn’t your mother just a concubine born from the commonfolk?" Lan Cai’er was not someone to be trifled with either. Recognizing Ye Lingyue as her close friend, she was fiercely loyal.

She would not allow anyone to insult her friends.

County Lord An, full name An Minxia, was a concubine’s daughter of Duke An, whose mother was the daughter of a tavern owner whom Duke An met during an inspection.

Only because of Duke An’s favor was she brought into the mansion and eventually became a concubine, and exceptionally favored, she was made a county master.

Nevertheless, a concubine’s child was just that, and An Minxia’s status was inherently lower than that of a legitimate eldest daughter like Lan Cai.

An Minxia had always been secretly envious of Lan Cai, who, although also from a common background, was favored by the Empress Dowager and even made into a Commandery Princess.

An Minxia and Lan Cai’er were partners but not close friends; they met through Heir An, and Lan Cai’er had long been displeased with An Minxia.

"Lan Cai’er, what great abilities do you have? Everyone knows, in the Imperial City, you offended Princess Yu of the Hong Residence and could no longer stay, that’s why you hid in Li City."

When An Minxia first met Lan Cai’er, she used to please her in every way, but later when she got to know the old nobility of the Imperial City, especially some daughters of nobles from the Prime Minister’s Mansion, she began to look down on Lan Cai’er.

A commandery princess of common origin is still of common origin, and the company she keeps belongs to the lowest strata.

Governor Lan was relegated to Li City not long ago, and Lan Cai’er even stooped to becoming sisterly with a rustic village woman.

The disdain in An Minxia’s eyes was particularly glaring to Lan Cai’er.

Hong Residence?

When Ye Lingyue, who was outside the room, heard that name already deeply etched in her mind, her eyelids twitched heavily.

Immediately after, a loud noise came from inside the room, followed by the sound of cups and saucers falling to the floor.

A scuffling noise followed; it seemed like a fight was about to break out inside.

It appeared this argument was regarding her century-old monkey wine, causing Ye Lingyue to hesitate.

"An Minxia, believe it or not, I will tear your mouth apart," Lan Cai’er, truly enraged, didn’t care about the etiquette of hosting guests anymore and rushed forward to teach the county lord a lesson.

"You are welcome to try, I have long wanted to see what the tenth-ranked at the Imperial Examination is capable of," County Lord An’s words had barely faded when she struck a table in front of her with her palm.

The table, struck with great force, spun around, fast as a spinning top, shooting straight towards Lan Cai’er’s face. Lan Cai’er dodged to the side, and the table smashed through the room’s door, flying outwards.

Just then, a waiter passing by outside the room screamed in terror as the table was about to hit him.

In the side room, Lan Cai’er’s face slightly changed.

Just at that moment, the waiter felt someone suddenly appear in front of him.

The table that was smashing towards him paused mid-air.

A hand steadily supported the table, and gently placed the several tens of kilograms heavy top-quality willow wood table on the ground.

"Little brother, you got scared." The soul-lost waiter saw a face with a charming smile jump into his view, a pretty girl was looking at him.

Inside the side room, everyone was also stunned for a moment.

County Lord An, also a Martial Artist at the Postnatal Peak, had not held back when she struck with her palm, it was not a small force, yet this person easily caught it?

"Sister Lan." Ye Lingyue’s sudden appearance left everyone present in shock.

Seeing Ye Lingyue, Lan Cai’er displayed an awkward expression and sheepishly said,

"Sister Ling Yue, why are you here?"

It turned out that Lan Cai’er had contacted her partners in the Imperial City to help Ye Lingyue’s wine be consigned at Drunk Immortal Inn, and these people were all sons and daughters of high officials from the Imperial City.

They were initially very enthusiastic about tasting good wines in Li City’s Drunk Immortal Inn.

While they were enjoying the wine, everything seemed fine at first. However, the next moment, as soon as they heard that the wine was brewed by a no-name village female warrior, the highest-ranking An Mingxia changed her tune.

She claimed the century-old monkey wine tasted bad and absolutely forbade such low-quality wine from appearing in Drunk Immortal Inn, which led Lan Cai’er to argue with her right then and there, inciting this brawl.

Inside the room, a young woman in brocade looked at Ye Lingyue with a sidelong glance.

This young lady, around two to three years younger than Lan Cai’er, roughly sixteen or seventeen, with an oval face and a charming beauty, looked no less beautiful than Lan Cai’er.

However, her pretentious tone made it difficult for others to fondly perceive her.

Similarly, County Lord An was also sizing up Ye Lingyue.

An Mingxia had always assumed that a woman born in the countryside must be rudely unattractive; little did she know, the actual appearance of Ye Lingyue in front of her was entirely different from her expectation.

Though unadorned with makeup, wearing only a simple moon-white Martial Robe, her skin was like creamy jade, her lips naturally red, and her eyebrows elegantly natural, with her pair of jet-black eyes shining like jewels, adding liveliness to her entire persona.

The sight captivated the other noble youths from the Imperial City, who stared unblinkingly.

A group of inexperienced fools.

Seeing the admiring looks in the eyes of several noble youths beside her, An Mingxia became even more infuriated, annoyed that a bumpkin dared to steal her limelight.

"Are you that rural Brewer, Ye Lingyue?"

"An Mingxia, who are you calling a bumpkin!" Lan Cai’er glared angrily, her body faintly shimmering with Yang Gang Qi, which intimidated An Mingxia into silence.

In the Imperial City, Lan Cai’er was nicknamed "Violent Dragon Lan"; she would dare to strike even the Crown Prince if someone provoked her, and An Mingxia had also only argued out of impulse earlier.

"Sister Lan, do not be angry. Miss, you just mentioned that my century-old monkey wine tastes bad; what specifically is not good about it?" Ye Lingyue stopped Lan Cai’er.
