Kapitel 131: Chapter 28: Observations_3

"The fifth level?"

"Yes, master. When the former governor served as the Master of ourland, he ascended to the ninth level and inscribed the two characters 'Bo Wang' in the books. Since then, every succeeding governor would first go to the ninth level to review the inscription. This level is not open to casual visits. The seventh and eighth are only for banquets — these two nights are Master Shang Huaitong's banquets. Normally, the sixth level is open, but it's occupied for a literary meeting today, so you can only go to the fifth level, unfortunately."

"Oh." Pei Ye seemed disappointed; he was less interested in going to the fifth level. After bowing his thanks, he led his horse and turned to leave.

Just then, a group of brightly dressed, jade-bedecked people laughingly approached. Men in scholar's robes and battlefield attire, women in fluttering skirts, with the men strong like pine winds and the women beautiful like colorful daisies.
