Chapter 471 The Meeting (Part One)
Yun Shang became more interested in the content of the letter that Liu Yinfeng sent to her. She kept
silent for a moment and said, "send a letter to a small yard in the city. Arrange a meeting with
Mr. Liu at the Long Feng Tower at noon tomorrow."
Qian Yin knew it was her fault this time, and felt a little guilty in her heart. So she quickly responded,
"yes, I''ll arrange it right away."
The Long Feng Towerwas one of the most famous restaurants in the Jin City with a history of hundreds
of years. The dishes there tasted good, and it was worth mentioning that the Long Feng Tower was
located in the suburbs of the city, with arge private courtyard hidden between the bamboo and peach
trees.
Yun Shang dressed up as an ordinarydy, wearing a veil cap, and took a carriage from the back door
to the Long Feng Tower with two maids who seldom appeared in front of others.
The private room was called Juan Zhu Lian. There was a peach blossom forest around it. When they
walked in, they found that the decoration was very distinctive. There was even no walls, onlyyers of
bead curtains covered the sight around.
Liu Yinfeng was already waiting for her in the private room. Seeing Yun Shang, he raised his head and
smiled at her. Then he stood up and called, "A Yun."
Yun Shang greeted him gently and sat down opposite him. A waiter came over and asked Liu Yinfeng,
"may I serve the dishes now?"
Liu Yinfeng made no answer but looked up at Yun Shang. Yun Shang smiled slightly and nodded her
head to the waiter. The waiter said yes and took his leave.
In a short while, a woman in pink walked slowly towards them with a tray in her hands. She ced the
dishes on the table with a faint peach blossom fragrance between her actions.
"A Yun has just arrived at the Jin City, but you already know this ce. It''s very surprising." Liu Yinfeng
seemed to be in a good mood, and he kept on calling her A Yun, grinning from ear to ear.
"It is impossible for me to know nothing about the Long Feng Tower. It is so well-known." Yun Shang
smiled as she watched the waiters serve all the dishes. Then she waved her hands, indicating them to
leave.
Liu Yinfeng picked up the chopsticks on the table and said with a smile, "when I was in the state of
Ning before, Emperor Ning once told me that your two biggest hobbies are eating and sleeping. I didn''t
believe it before, but now I believe it more. I''ve seen you often in the Yuman tower in the state of Ning
before. Even if I didn''t see you, I could see the servants of Prince Jing''s mansion oftene to the
Yuman tower for picking up food. Most of the time, they bought osmanthus cakes. asionally, they
would bring some new dishes back as well. But now, you''ve juste to the state of Ning for such a
short time, and it''s almost impossible for you toe out even once. How do you know you can invite
me here for lunch? "
Yun Shang didn''t know that the emperor Ning had told the story to him, but she didn''t expect him to be
so observant as well. Feeling a little embarrassed, Yun Shang smiled and said, "I didn''t know my father
had told you about these embarrassing things about me." Then she took off her gauze cap and put it
aside. "Although I know there is a lot of food in the Long Feng Tower, I don''t know what it is. Could you
please help introduce it to me, Mr. Liu?"

Liu Yinfeng smiled and picked up a round meatball from the various dishes on the table and said, "this
dish is my favorite. It''s called pearls. Made of mandarin fish, pork and shrimp. It''s crystal clear and cute
and the taste is exquisite. Then it''s mixed with the aroma of pork. With a flick of shrimps in the mouth,
it''s very delicious."
Yun Shang tasted it and found that it was really delicious. Liu Yinfeng''s description was not
exaggerated at all.
It was Liu Yinfeng who kept telling Yun Shang the dishes from time to time during the meal. Yun Shang
ate all of them and said with a smile, "if you keep on talking like this, there will be nothing for you to
eat."
Then Liu Yinfeng ate something casually.
They had their lunch. Staring at Yun Shang for a long time, Liu Yinfeng smiled and said, "you and I
seldom eat together. Although I don''t want to ruin the atmosphere, I know that you must have
something to tell me. Just tell me."
Yun Shang smiled and said gently, "the housekeeper refused Mr. Liu when he saw me having a rest
servant, I didn''t see the letter at all. I didn''t know it until I met you on the street yesterday and the
servant told me about it. It urred to me that there must be something important in Mister Liu''s letter.
I''m afraid I''ve missed it, so I called Mister Liu out to have a talk
with you. "
Hearing this, Liu Yinfeng paused slightly, and the smile in his eyes faded away immediately. "Well..." He
sounded disappointed.
Yun Shang didn''t know why Liu Yinfeng acted like this, but she also fixed her eyes on him. Liu Yinfeng
let out a sigh in his heart and felt that as if he had eaten a bitter fruit, a burst of bitterness slowly
spreading in the bottom of his heart.
"Do you knowdy Shu''s family background?" Liu Yinfeng asked, picked up the cup on the table and
stopped looking at Yun Shang.
"Lady Shu?" Yun Shang couldn''t help but frown, "I didn''t know her identity before, but two days ago
when I came to the pce, I talked about it with Lady Xiang. Does it have something to do with Lady
Shu?"
Liu Yinfeng nodded his head slowly, "be careful of Lady Shu. She has waited for the emperor for quite
a long time to be in the position she was now and desired power more than anyone of us. Lady Shu''s
parents were of great importance in the Ya n. Althoughdy Shu said that the head of the Ya n
had grounded her parents after the rebellion, that was not the case. I dare not say thatdy Shu
secretly instigated the riot, but her parents have never been under house arrest. "
