Chapter 132: All Living Beings Have Regrets
e else quite as awkward as this.It's not just firecrackers, drums and fireworks that are embarrassing.It's not just the works created by Xu Dazai, those so-called "speeches" that make one cringe — bes...Jinxiu wove a kind of nearly impossible success, and the return gained from it allowed Xu Xiangqian to have a dreamlike awakening.

But Gao E'er's incessant boasting was truly unbearable.
Speaking of which, there are many ways for him to inquire about Xu Gao's current situation. For example, he could ask friends in Jingguo to check on the situation nearby. Or he could send an expensive long-distance letter, directly delivered to Tianbei Xueling. It wouldn't be a big deal if the letter arrived and he paid for it later!
The reason I specifically used the communication formation of the Southern Xia Governor's Mansion for this, using public resources for private gain, was to inform Jiefeng City in a concrete manner as Da Qi Wuan Marquis. Xu Xiangqian and Xu Gao are my closest friends, Jiang Wang.

The Snow Country's winter emperor acted strangely in the realm of Shenxiao. Not only was he familiar with the San Sheng Lan flower, but he also knew Chai Ao about more than just being the reincarnation of the Frost Immortal King.
Jiang Wang didn't know the ins and outs of the situation, nor did he want to. But instinctively, he felt danger.
Although Xu Xiangqian had a solid background and need not worry about any unforeseen circumstances, he still wanted to support his friend as a fellow comrade.

After leaving your city, Jiang Wang went to Mingkong Hanshan again. It wasn't for anything important, just to take a last look before entering the maze world.
In the past times of the Shenxiao world, the generation celestial crane Huating covered her face and sank into the depths, making people sigh with regret.
Today's Han Mountain, where the air is cold and desolate, has become the territory of the renowned Marquis Chongxuan of Bo Wang, a powerful figure in Da Qi. The mountain remains as it once was, but there are no traces of its former self.
Having witnessed the solitary grandeur and serene beauty of this mountain, he did not see a single trace of a hermit crane. He wandered alone among the mountains until nightfall, then returned to Linzi by himself.
When he looked back under the endless twilight on the foundation they had built together with Chongxuan, he could not see the clash of steel and the fluttering banners, nor the ancient demons nor the people of today.
Only seeing, the moon falls into the mountains.
Like that ethereal realm brimming with infinite possibilities, a haven for countless romantic dreams.
Though the heavens are pure and free from taint, sentient beings still harbor regrets.

Before they set sail, the friends gathered for a drink together, as a way to celebrate.
After all, this Jiang fellow has a knack for making a sudden and powerful entrance. Last year, he went to the demon realm as usual and almost never returned.
Li Longchuan proposed going to Hongxiu Pavilion.
He really loves going to Hongxiu Restaurant. Whenever there's a banquet, he always goes for a visit. He says he mainly likes the Mist Woman pipa in Ba Yin Miaocha.
"I would never go to such a place!" Yan Fu said firmly. "This kind of fireworks place is not suitable, right" Chong Xuan pretended to be righteous.
"Just go have a drink with Wu Nv Pipa, it's nothing serious, what's inappropriate" Li Longchuan looked around, "Wen Tinglan and Yi Fourteen aren't here either!"
He glared at Yan Fu and Chong Xuan Sheng, his expression clearly saying — what are you pretending
"Whether Miss Wen is here or not doesn't really matter. It's simply that I myself dislike it." Yan Fu's eyes showed a hint of melancholy: "Yes, I no longer enjoy going to those places of pleasure."
ZH:
Zhen Xuan nodded solemnly, "I'm a married man."
"Alright, let's go with Jiang Wang's lead today! He calls the shots!" Li Longchuan didn't bother figuring out what they were up to. He looked straight at Jiang Wang and said, "Big Hero, you pick the place."
Jiang Wang casually said, "Then let's go to Sanfenxianglou." Li Longchuan's sword eyebrows twitched slightly.
>
Yet, Yan Fu remained solemn.
Jiang Wang added, "Today there's a poetry gathering at Lanxin Garden. Miss Wen is hosting it herself. Our household saw the invitation; they're aiming to write poems about the moonlit night."
Yan Fu had already gotten up: "I don't know where the Sanfen Xiangqi Lou is It doesn't matter. Good friends make a good gathering, let's go now!"
Zhong Xuan coughed lightly, neither heavily nor softly.

"Jiang Wang added, "Since Fourteen is returning to her natal home today, before she returns to the manor, Yi Huimin will have someone send me a message... By the way, Yi Huimin will also be here shortly."
It has to be said that sometimes, relationships between people have a certain compatibility.
Yicheng Xing's two sons, one was taciturn and the other lazy, both mediocre in talent. The heir Yicheng Xing favored was Yang Weiton, the former deputy envoy of the inspection. He also wished to entrust political resources, hoping that Yang Weiton could cultivate a good relationship with the most promising young people in the Qi court today, repeatedly bringing the two together.
Jiang Wang and Yang Weitong's relationship was always pretty good, but there was always something keeping them from being real friends.
He actually got along very well with Yi Huimin, who had completely given up on himself. They often hung out together.

"As for this well-informed nephew, Chongxuan admires him very much. With a hearty laugh, he said: "Brother Yan doesn't know something that I don't know But this Sanshenxianglou, judging by the name, is a flower garden. Come on! I love admiring flowers!"
A few close friends scurried out the door and squeezed into a carriage. They deliberately chose Ginger's ride because it was the most understated.
A few years ago, when everyone was free and unrestrained, the feeling of a group of prodigal sons swaggering through Linzi City was irreplaceable.
But reuniting with old friends, stealing half a day of leisure from life's hustle and bustle, is still a joyous occasion.
Only Li Longchuan was still reminiscing about his red sleeves beckoning. Even as the carriage approached its destination, he kept muttering: "Why come to this place that's second-rate when there are four great mansions What's the point"
"All four famous halls would offer me free hospitality, and even Yuyushui Pavilion was looking for Yuan Shi to pay me... I dare not go," Jiang Wang said slowly. "Besides, today is the reopening day of Sanfenxianglou in Linzi after its renovation. I heard there are many exciting activities. I promised them the first day's fragrance, before Sanfenxianglou reached the level of the four famous halls, to keep them out of official trouble."
Hearing that Jiang Wang was there to support Sanfenxiang Building, Li Longchuan didn't say anything and quickly shifted his attention: "What kind of exciting activities"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The dog owner next to him also became interested: "What does the first day's scent smell like"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Zhong Xuan seemed to have caught a whiff of something, he opened his eyelids: “The Three-Part Fragrance Building is going to make its move in Linzi”
Jiang Wang looked at them silently. You yourselves listen, this question asked, like not understanding Sanfen Xiangqi Lou
He replied in kind, "We'll see when the time comes."
Today's Sanfenxianglou is not very lively with decorations and excitement.
After the renovation, it seemed to have lost that flamboyance.

> A glance from Young Master Yan was followed by a compliment: "It has some style." A green willow shaded the brick path, winding into a courtyard with screened verandas. One could find oneself in a small pavilion or a long corridor.
Or dancing, or playing the qin.
Women like spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, scattered throughout the courtyard, becoming part of the scenery.
They were not overly affectionate, nor were they cold.
Whoever catches the guest's eye will gracefully approach and introduce its merits with soft and gentle words.
Of course, a combination like Jiang Wang, Chong Xuan Sheng, Yan Fu, and Li Longchuan could be called the first-class courtesans in Linzi. Stepping into such a place wouldn't be handled by ordinary entertainers.
Before the person arrives, the bell rings first.
As soon as that petite and graceful figure came into view, the faint fragrance also wafted into my nose.
>
Her little bell, tied to her ankle.
Following the sound, one's gaze falls upon a pair of snow-white footprints, glistening with a jade-like sheen. They are traced by geta sandals, gently touching the softest part of one's heart.
Snow is embedded in the wood color.
"I, Xiang Ling'er, am here to welcome the distinguished guest." Her voice was like a ringing bell, making one's ears tingle.
Her face was like a daisy and a young orchid, beautiful in a clean and clear way that inspired an inexplicable urge to destroy.
Li Longchuan whispered to these men that they were acting recklessly and inappropriately, but when they truly saw such a beautiful woman, each one remained composed and collected. Not a single person seemed smitten.
Jiang Wang looked at her, a sense of familiarity rising in his heart: "Don't we seem to have met somewhere before"
A woman's makeup, when changed, is like changing faces. This is especially true for someone like Xiang Ling'er, who is skilled at applying cosmetics. When she played the role of a pitiable woman in Tianfu City, her makeup was simple and plain, aiming for an "innocent girl next door" look that elicited sympathy. Today, however, she goes to great lengths with her makeup, beautiful in every detail, from pure elegance to a hint of desire.
She looked at Jiang Wang with a hint of shyness, but her words were seven parts bold: "Marquis Wu'an is renowned throughout the land. In my dreams, I often meet heroes."
Several friends looked at her with interest.
Jiang Wang simply replied, "I reserved a seat in advance."
Tiānxiāng is undoubtedly a master of manipulating the wind and moon to create a fragrant ambiance. Xiānglíng'er moves like a dragonfly, light and fleeting, never lingering. She spins gracefully, leading the way: "This way, gentlemen."
Here's the translation, keeping HTML tags intact:
Turning into the green corridor, circling the vermilion pavilion, stepping into the building, it is quite different.
Through an air bridge, walk to the back building.
The back building is smaller than the front one, but it is more exquisite. Only guests of the highest rank are allowed here.
The corridor bridge connects to the highest level, its platform above adorned with clouds and decorated with luminous pearls.
In the hall, there is a pool of warm water made of white jade. A beautiful woman swims in the pool accompanied by music and dances gracefully, her movements as free as fish swimming in shallow water.
Around this jade pool, screens of colorful fragrant flowers were arranged to create several semi-concealed spaces.
The folding screen was embroidered with roses, peonies, peonies and hibiscus. Various colorful flowers also carried different kinds of fragrance.
A myriad of subtle scents, a presence almost imperceptible, stood as a barrier, dividing distinct realms.
Here, the rooftop is the main hall, and below are more private rooms.
Jiang Wang came today to support Sanfenxianglou, so naturally she sat in the hall.
But as soon as he crossed the bridge and took two steps toward Yu Chi, he abruptly turned back, but it was too late.
"Jiang Wu'an!"
The dashing and imposing Third Princess of the Great Qi, was sitting in the best seat for watching the dance with a casual yet graceful air. Her round and powerful legs, planted firmly on the floor, seemed as if they could pierce through the boards.
She smiled, gently pushing the screen before her aside and beckoned with a finger. "Come here."
Zhong Xuan patted his forehead with a "pa" sound: "I forgot there's something at home! I'll go back first, you guys continue playing!"
Lee Lung-chuan gasped, "I rushed out this morning. After practicing archery, my bowstring is still taut! This is bad! I must go back immediately. You all eat and drink here and wait for me. I'll be right back."
Before he left, he didn't forget to push Jiang Wang aside: "The Palace Master is looking for you." As brothers, in my heart, I'll withdraw first and then you charge in.
Yan Fu even moved silently. "Come," Jiang Wuyou said softly.
The air seemed to freeze, suddenly heavy.
>
After all, Jiang Wuan was a Marquis of Military Merit from the Great Qi Dynasty. As the most renowned figure among the younger generation, he casually brushed his sleeves and walked at the front with ease.
Li Longchuan, Yan Fu, and Chong Xuan Sheng each wore a strained smile as they walked behind Jiang Wang, parading through the streets.
"The lord said to me that today's literary lesson was unfinished, so why are we reading the writings of sages here at the Three Incense Pavilion" Dà Qí Wǔ'ān Hóu took the initiative.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wuyou's smile turned into a sneer: "This palace is also unaware. Wuanhou said today he would have a small gathering with friends to enjoy some wine, originally planned here!"
They had originally agreed to verify each other's cultivation today and discuss their future path.
But today, each person said they had something to do. So today was pushed to tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, fate is so wonderful. The two people who "have something to do" actually bumped into each other here.
"Actually, I'm here today to repay a debt." Jiang Wang said honestly, "I owe someone at Sanfenxiang Building a favor."
Jiang Wuyou raised an eyebrow and said, "Do you want to repay with your body"
Li Longchuan looked up at the sky, Yan Fu gazed at the ground, and Chong Xuan admired the view outside the window.
As no one else spoke up, Jiang Wang could only say for himself: "...... Palace Master, you really do know how to joke."
Jiang Wuyou said, "Since Marquis Wu'an enjoys wind and moon, my ninth brother has paved the ground with jade stones. I invite you to Wen Yushui Xie. When do you plan to go"
Here is the English translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"I'm not going." Jiang Wang replied quickly. "Why" Jiang Wuyou remained calm. Jiang Wang said, "I'm afraid the Palace Master will misunderstand."
"Oh." Jiang Wuyu gave a look that said, "I understand." "Been there too many times, getting tired of it."
Jiang Wang: .....
Jiang Wuyou's superior jawline gracefully swept across, slightly lifting his lower lip: "Sit down."
"Perhaps not. "Jiang Wang looked at the few useless friends he had brought, and said with a stiff face: "I still have a friend coming over later, Yi Huimin. The Palace Master should know If they were all sitting here, it would probably be crowded."
Xiang Linger, understanding his worry, said gently, "My lord, you don't have to worry. The fragrant flower screen here can be moved aside. Two tables can be combined into one, and plum blossoms and orchids complement each other perfectly."
Jiang Wang gestured to her with his eyes.
She gave him a shy, flirtatious glance in return.
Jiang Wuyu knocked on the table, interrupting their eye contact, and emphasized again, "Sit down."
Then Jiang Wang and the others obediently sat down.
Today's Liu Xiuzhang is quite different!
>
In the past, I was as frail as a willow in the wind. Today, my clothes flutter like banners in the gale. What was once easily broken now defies wind and moon alike.
With a sweep of his robe sleeves, he seated himself at the head of the table. His bearing was dignified and commanding, making him appear as the master of this place.

She glanced over with a faint smile, her brows raised lightly by the breeze, her eyes like pools of water. She spoke in a soft voice: "Young Master Yan avoids me like a venomous snake. Could it be that Xiu Zhang has done something to offend you"i Lao Si, Li Lao Si!" The fat man scolded. "If your brain doesn't work well, just keep your mouth shut. Do you know what it means to scout ahead We bad guys always have to make sure our escape route i...
