Chapter 48 . 2
Phoenix Fifth was watching Duanmu Xi working hard under the wisteria flowers and a glint of admiration flashed by .
The wisteria flowers may be beautiful but Her Highness was even more beautiful . This surreal moment was like a painting .
“Your Highness, the weather is good today, let’s go out for a walk . ”
Looking at the expression of Phoenix Fifth, Duanmu Xi nodded as she had on a funny smile .
“Alright . ”
She had been in the academy for half a month and she had not gone out yet .
Central Prefecture City, Fleeting Cloud Inn .
“Congratulations to the young lady for becoming a student at the Sacred Gold Academy . ”
The innkeeper was very happy to see the two of them and welcomed them warmly as he showed them to their seats and called a waiter over for them .
Duanmu Xi looked at the innkeeper and nodded her head but did not say anything .
Phoenix Fifth pursed her lips, this shopkeeper was still as enthusiastic as before .
“Did you two ladies come out today to specially attend the Innumerable Treasures Pavilion auction?”
“Auction?” Duanmu Xi raised her eyebrows .
When the innkeeper saw that Duanmu Xi had finally answered, he introduced it with even more enthusiasm .
“Yeah, this afternoon, the Innumerable Treasures Pavilion will be holding an auction . If you two ladies are free, why don’t you drop by and have a look? I heard that there’s a treasure auction today . ”
Treasure? What kind of treasure would it be?
“Ladies, your dishes are here, please enjoy your meal . ”

After he helped the waiter to serve the dishes, the innkeeper retreated .
“Your Highness, let’s go to the auction after our meal, we might be able to find something that we need . ”
Phoenix Fifth was very interested in this auction . She had always been a guard and she never had the chance to participate in events such as these .
“Mn . ” Duanmu Xi nodded .
She also wanted to have a look, what kind of treasures would there be?
After the two had finished eating, they came to the Innumerable Treasures Pavilion auction venue .
Located in the most prosperous center of Central Prefecture City, Innumerable Treasures Pavilion was a three-storey building . The three characters of the “Innumerable Treasures Pavilion” on the halls were written with vigorous and powerful strokes, showing that the cultivation of the person who wrote it was high .
When the two went to the Innumerable Treasures Pavilion, the entrance was already crowded .
“Your Highness, I have just heard that the Feng Clan is in charge of this Innumerable Treasures Pavilion, it is one of the four great family clans of the Central Prefecture City . ”
Phoenix Fifth squeezed through the crowd and came to Duanmu Xi’s side and whispered .

Duanmu Xi raised her brows, “Four great family clans?”
“Yes, legend has it that the four major family clans of Feng, Hua, Xue, and Yue, are sent by the four kingdoms to monitor the City Lord . ”
“Oh?” Duanmu Xi raised her eyebrows with interest . “Then which family belongs to our Vermillion Bird Empire?”
This legend was quite interesting . She didn’t expect their Vermillion Bird Empire to have a stronghold in this Central Prefecture City . She just didn’t know if the legend was true .
“The Hua family, I heard that the head of the Hua family had always been women . ”
“That legend does sound like there’s a certain truth in it . ”
The Hua family also had a matriarchal structure so it was very likely that they were from the Vermillion Bird Empire .
Phoenix Fifth nodded, she also felt that the legend was very likely to be true, after all, only the Vermillion Bird Empire among the four kingdoms had women as their ruler .
“Well, let’s go . Let’s head over to the auction first . ”

The two of them followed the crowd and entered the Innumerable Treasures Pavilion auction, entering the crowded venue that was bustling with people .
Duanmu Xi’s brows creased slightly, there were too many people and she didn’t like it .
“Let’s go to the back . ”
The two went to the back of the Innumerable Treasures Pavilion and it was much quieter than before .
Just two steps away, a servant girl came forward and asked: “Two guests, is there anything I can do for you?”
Duanmu Xi looked up and saw a sweet young girl .
“I want to reserve a private room . ”
When the servant girl saw Duanmu Xi’s appearance, she was taken aback and was left somewhat in a daze .
“Cough, cough…”
