Although, all the people here are of no small significance, in the end, because even among these noble sons, due to different family statuses, they inherently possess varying ranks.
This Bai Family is an aristocratic lineage, so naturally, some lackeys surround them.
At this moment, these people were originally searching around for their prey!
The Grand Princess is high above and desired by all, but many people are quite clear in their hearts that the Grand Princess is not someone they can just touch as they wish. So, many who know they lack the status are in fact preparing on two fronts.
They aspire to pursue the Grand Princess, yet they wonât let other women slip by either!
As noble scions, they have their own sorrows as well, since most of the marriages among noble offspring are not for them to decide at all. Before they arrived, their families had long ago selected suitable prospects for them, because for these families, finding an appropriate match undoubtedly strengthens their power!
Similarly, even those ladies have their own tasks!
Although not asked to actively pursue anyone, the range of whom they can accept is still restricted.
To gain more, naturally one must lose more.
Only what each person loses may be different!
Although the Grand Princess has yet to make an appearance, in truth, diverse conversations have already emerged throughout the Bamboo Pavilion!
This place is basically a matchmaking conference!
Ye Luo observed everything around with considerable interest. Speaking of the identity the Third Prince arranged for him, it could only be regarded as the lowest among this group of people. It was only because the Third Prince actively tried to know Li Muxin several times that Li Muxin casually invited the Third Prince this time.
Ye Luo stood there alone, with no friends around, as he was an excluded presence. For these noble offspring, Ye Luoâs status wasnât worth their association!
...
"See him over there? That guy, like a toad wanting to eat swan meat, not even looking at his own face, dares to pursue the Grand Princess! You guys go and humiliate him properly, donât worry, heâs just a fallen nobility, his family has no real power, feel free to knead him as you please!"
Young Master Bai said to his lackeys.
When those lackeys heard Young Master Bai say this, they immediately understood, smirking as they headed toward Ye Luo.
Bullying the weak was usual for these people, relying on the power of their families, they always bullied whoever they could, and flattered those they couldnât.
Ye Luo just sat in a relatively secluded place, quietly observing his surroundings. For Ye Luo, his only target was the Grand Princess. As for the other women? The curious glances from those ladies aroused not a single bit of interest in Ye Luo.
Although Ye Lu had noticed Young Master Baiâs abnormality from the start, because Ye Luo didnât regard Young Master Bai highly, he didnât continue to observe, thus missing the subsequent scene!
At this moment, the group discussed for a while, then let one of the youths go test Ye Luoâs reaction!
This youth was only twenty-three or twenty-four, which by the Martial Realmâs average age was considered rather early for matchmaking. But as he was his familyâs only heir, they had no choice but to let him come.
An opportunity as favorable as the banquet hosted by the Grand Princess was not something they could pass up, neither he nor his family.
The youth looked at Ye Luo, his face clearly showing disdain, but he still posed warmly as he approached Ye Luo.
"Hey, buddy, why are you here alone? Everyoneâs outside having fun, come on, letâs join them!"
Ye Luo hadnât seen the scene where he discussed with Young Master Bai and the others beforehand, so he wasnât concerned. Suddenly hearing someone invite him, Ye Luo, feeling bored, nodded and agreed.
"Alright, sitting here by myself is quite boring indeed."
Ye Luo stood up, a smile upon his face.
At least for now, Ye Luoâs smile was genuine, as having someone willing to accompany him amidst solitude did make him quite happy.
The youth laughed heartily and led Ye Luo forward, even eagerly introducing places to him.
"Buddy, look over there, thatâs the eldest lady of the Lin Family. Itâs said she has cultivated a very special technique, and her tongue is quite nimble, hehe. If someone could become her close acquaintance, theyâd be ecstatic!"
The youthâs expression was lewd, and at first Ye Luo didnât catch on, but he understood after a moment!
After all, this was a banquet hosted by the Grand Princess. No matter what Ye Luo thought, he wouldnât consider it in that way!
Ye Luo was stunned as he looked at the youth, amazed at how much he knew!
"What, have you tried it yourself?"
Ye Luo asked casually as he looked at the youth.
The youth let out a lewd laugh: "I do want to try, but unfortunately, my status isnât high enough! By the way, what should I call you? Iâm Chen Xianjue."
"Just call me Wen Yu!"
One could say, Chen Xianjue was fairly good at socializing as with a few simple sentences, he managed to lower Ye Luoâs defenses substantially.
After that, the two of them wandered around, with conversations naturally revolving around women.
Ye Luo gradually lowered his guard. In Ye Luoâs mind, naturally, discussions here revolved around women. And Chen Xianjueâs reactions seemed absolutely normal, making Ye Luo truly believe this guy was treating Ye Luo as a friend, which is why he was so proactive in helping Ye Luo understand the situation.
However, Ye Luo didnât know that after some groundwork by Chen Xianjue, the main act was just about to start!
"Hey, Brother Wen, see that stage up ahead?"
Stage?
Ye Luo turned to look and indeed saw a stage there, crafted from bamboo, with special material curtains on it, seemingly enclosing a woman, yet the curtainsâ specialty made it impossible to discern using ordinary divine sense.
At this point Ye Luo wasnât too curious, so he naturally didnât use the Clairvoyant Eye, only inquiring with Chen Xianjue with puzzlement: "I see it, whatâs special about it?"
"Haha, Brother Wen, you might not know, but thereâs a peculiar lady in there. Havenât you noticed how many people around are discussing her, yet no one dares to approach? How about it, Brother Wen, dare to give it a try?"
