For Weijing, last night was like having an uncomfortable dream.
When she woke up, she saw her son sitting in front of the bed, looking at her with a smile and saying:
"I've become lazy lately. I stay up so late. The ranking battle is about to start, so hurry up."
"Ah, Aunt Li, come and help!"
Wei Jing hurriedly got up. For her, this was the most important thing.
Aunt Li had already taken care of it for her.
She only needed to wash up, and a brand-new carriage was ready at the door.
Audience tickets for the Yanhuang Battlefield Ranking Match are relatively expensive, but Li Tianming is also ready.
He also bought one for Aunt Li so that she could take care of Wei Jing.
The people arranged by Chen Sheng should follow Wei Jing. With strong people protecting Wei Jing, Li Tianming can focus on his cultivation.
In the early morning, Li Tianming drove a carriage to Yanhuang Academy.
At this time, there was a sea of people outside the academy.
As a disciple of the academy, Li Tianming had a small privilege. He could bring his mother to the audience seats near the Yanhuang battlefield, in a cool and comfortable position near the front.
Looking around, the auditorium with tens of thousands of spectators was already packed with people.
Those private rooms have probably been arranged, and many powerful people from the Suzaku Kingdom are now in this Yanhuang battlefield.
It's just that ordinary people are not qualified to see them.
The ranking battle of Yanhuang Academy is naturally dominated by the Academy. The guests in the private room do not participate in the interference and can just enjoy it as a good show.
In addition to the audience, on the battlefield below, the boys and girls who successfully cleared the level a few days ago and became the new disciples of Yanhuang Academy are basically already in place.
Ranking battles are about resources and glory. Today's ranking will follow you every moment in your future practice, just like your own symbol.
How can young people not fight to the death?
After Li Tianming and Wei Jing finished explaining, they were about to return to the Muwan class.
At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind.
Li Tianming looked back and saw the elegant Mrs. Xuelan, surrounded by a group of noble ladies, just walking into the academy.
They headed towards the elegant room, passing by here and saw Li Tianming and Wei Jing.
Her son Chen Yao also serves by her side.
Today Chen Yao is wearing a purple robe and looks very heroic.
A young genius like him can almost attract the attention of many young girls no matter where he goes.
"You go first, I'll be back in a moment." Xue Lan ordered.
The ladies around her left first, leaving Xue Lan and Chen Yao behind, walking towards Li Tianming.
"Jing'er." Xue Lan walked up to Wei Jing with a smile on her face.
She didn't see much outside, gently held Wei Jing's hand and asked:
"Why didn't Jing'er go to Chenyao Inn that night? I've already arranged a place for you, but I haven't been waiting for you."
"Some things were delayed. Later, Tianming got some money and bought a room by himself, so I didn't bother you." Wei Jing's face was dull, but she did not refuse people thousands of miles away.
She will no longer be emotionally invested in people she has disappointed.
"Jing'er is too open-minded to me." Xue Lan shook her head and said in distress.
Wei Jing smiled slightly but did not respond.
She is too lazy to be hypocritical, and she doesn't have much to agree with the other person's thoughts about the past that has deteriorated.
"However, the house you bought later is actually the property of our Star Chamber of Commerce." Xue Lan suddenly said this, with a very obvious sense of superiority in her words.
It means nothing more than: Even if you don’t accept my charity, will you still end up living in the house I sold you?
Her Xingchen Chamber of Commerce family business is so huge, who can escape her grasp?
"Do you know where we live?" Li Tianming's heart moved and he squinted his eyes and asked Xue Lan.
"What do you want to say?" Chen Yao was not so polite and looked directly at Li Tianming.
"It's nothing." Li Tianming was just thinking that sometimes women are vicious and can be more terrifying than snakes and scorpions.
Chen Sheng is so kind to his mother. Is it possible that Xue Lan noticed it and hired a killer to kill his mother and son?
This is possible.
"Mom, let's go. We need to visit Xing Mansion first, some seniors from Tianji Palace, and it is said that important people from the Suzaku Royal Family are also coming."
"The ranking battle is about to begin. Don't waste time on the idlers." Chen Yao said coldly.
"Yao'er, why are you talking? Your Aunt Jing is my mother's former sister, so you can't be rude." Xue Lan scolded angrily.
She patted Chen Yao's shoulder lightly. It didn't hurt or itch.
"What sisters? She and the servant next to her look more like sisters." Chen Yao shrugged, turned around and left.
"Jing'er, it's all because of me that I didn't discipline this child well. This child who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth is difficult to educate and has a very bad temper. You must not be like him."
"Sometimes I really envy you. For example, your son, although a little rough, is well-behaved and sensible, and is easy to discipline."
Xue Lan said with a charming smile.
Wei Jing no longer wanted to talk to her.
"Aunt Lan, I want to ask you a question?" Li Tianming suddenly asked.
"What's the problem?"
"Do you know what the Blood Flower Palace is?" Li Tianming asked.
"What? I don't know." Xue Lan shook her head. Blood Flower Palace is a taboo, and many people would not dare to talk about it.
However, given her status, it is normal for her to have contact with the Blood Flower Palace.
"That's okay, Aunt Lan, please leave. I won't see you off." Li Tianming said in a deep voice.
"Kid, don't talk nonsense, I still have something to say to your mother." Xue Lan said angrily.
"Aunt Lan, Chen Yao wants to pass the ranking battle this time, get first place, and enter the Tianfu, right?" Li Tianming asked with burning eyes.
"Yeah, so what?" Xue Lan felt that this child was targeting her.
"Aunt Lan, there's no need to be pretentious. Your hypocrisy will only make my mother look down on you."
"Everyone has his or her own destiny. If you think you are happy and have a good life, there is no need to show off like this. This will only show the darkness and frustration in your heart. Am I right?"
Li Tianming looked directly into her eyes, and every word he spoke had the weight of steel.
"How do you speak as a child? Do you have any education?" Xue Lan's face turned frosty and her fingers trembled slightly.
"No matter how uneducated I am, I am still better than Chen Yao. You think you are better than my mother in all aspects now, which gives you so much sense of superiority that you are still complacent to this day."
"For someone like you who only has this kind of vulgar taste, I think you may be very frustrated next."
If he said this, it would be equivalent to breaking up.
Wei Jing pulled him and signaled him to stop talking, but Li Tianming couldn't bear it.
"You, a drugged and obscene beast, are you qualified to say such things?"
Xue Lan is a very high-ranking person. If she really wants to fight, she is not very afraid of Li Tianming, let alone Wei Jing. If she wants to be hysterical, who is afraid of whom?
"Whether you are qualified or not, you will know just by looking down. Look at who stepped on Chen Yao this time." Li Tianming said.
Xue Lan smiled, covered her mouth and chuckled. After glancing at Li Tianming, she turned to Wei Jing and said:
"Jing'er, don't say anything. Do you mean to compare your son with me?"
"You go, don't blaspheme Xue Lan in my memory, okay?" Wei Jing gritted her teeth and said.
"Blasphemy? You are blaspheming yourself by looking so embarrassed, Wei Jing!"
After saying that, Xue Lan glanced at Li Tianming with a cold smile, then snorted and left with a swaying step on lotus steps.
She was probably extremely proud of herself. Thinking of Li Tianming's words, she even found them so funny that she couldn't help laughing.
When others looked at it, they thought that Mrs. Chen Sheng had some big happy event.
Twenty years later, who has won?
Xue Lan looked at her beauty, her skin and figure, then she looked at her luxurious clothes and wealth, then she looked at the huge empire of the Star Chamber of Commerce, she looked at the envy of everyone along the way, and then she thought about her pair of sons.
, she already had the answer.
As for Wei Jing, she was just huddled in a corner and lingering, and she had already been completely defeated.
Even though Wei Jing never wanted to compare, she did.
She lost the first twenty years and was always a green leaf and a foil. Who knows how frustrated she felt in the first twenty years?
Although I was wild today, I was also happy.
She didn't feel it was a pity. When they met in Chen Palace, she didn't want Wei Jing to leave with a smile.
This time I spoke a lot of things from my heart, and my heart felt even more refreshed, and I could feel the wind blowing when I walked.
Thinking again of how infamous Li Tianming actually dared to challenge his perfect son.
She couldn't wait to share such funny things with her sisters.
"What are sisters? Those women who flatter me, flatter me, and want to drink my bathwater are my sisters."
Looking at my appearance, skin and figure that are perfect at this age.
Thinking of Wei Jing's terminal illness, she couldn't help laughing again.
"Small life calamity is such a beautiful thing!"
Just like that, she returned to the private room.
When she talked about Li Tianming, she and her sisters burst into laughter.
A group of women seemed to have returned to their girlhood, immersed in joy.
Li Tianming, whom they laughed at, has not left Wei Jing yet.
"How do you feel?" he asked.
"It's just showing her true thoughts. It's nothing. I'm used to it."
Wei Jing was still calm and spoke to Li Tianming with a warm face.
Li Tianming only endured this for three years. She has been meeting this kind of people for half her life. What happened today cannot defeat her at all.
"Then what?"
"Can you defeat Chen Yao?"
"It's nothing." Li Tianming said.
"Then give it to me and beat him up a little more badly?" Wei Jing said.
Li Tianming smiled.
This is his mother.
Wei Jing has never been a submissive person.
It’s just that fate is too cruel and there are many things that can’t be helped.
And now, if there is that opportunity, then why can't she make those people who have disappointed her long ago and still want to add insult to injury pay some price?
"Can you do it, Tianming?" Wei Jing asked again.
"Mother, just sit here and watch me perform for you," Li Tianming said.
"It's a pity that there are no melon seeds and wine, otherwise it would be more comfortable." Wei Jing smiled.
"Don't think too much, just drink some boiled water and you'll be fine."
At this time, the big names from the Yanhuang Academy began to appear below, and Li Tianming had already heard someone announcing that the ranking battle was about to begin.
"It's time for me to leave. If I don't leave, Master Mu Wan will beat me." Li Tianming said.
"Mu Wan?" Wei Jing was stunned.
"Do you know him?" Li Tianming asked.
"You go ahead." Wei Jing smiled. She sat upright with her hands on her knees.
In fact, as long as she smiles, she doesn't look that old.
Li Tianming can still see in her the gorgeous look she had in Yandu twenty years ago.
