The Pheonix and The Dragon

12.Accident

Among the aristocratic family misses that were skilled in the literary and martial arts, Lisa's riding was not good but not bad. In races, she would never win but would not be the last. She would always be in the middle, not eye-catching but would not be dismissed by others.

However, everyone knew that the Kim Family's ancestors came from the Qingyuan Province and were not soldiers. So many aristocratic misses were deeply moved inwardly by Lisa's excellent riding skills. The madams who had sons of suitable age in their homes had thoughts long ago and put Lisa on the lists of candidates for marriage.

Jiyong's branch was the main branch of the Qingyuan Province Kim Clan. A century ago, when the Kim Family was in decline, brothers from the main branch came to the capital to develop. Due to this, the Kim Family managed to reverse their fall and establish themselves in Seoul.

In reality, there were many branches of aristocratic families in Seoul that were like the Kim Family's ancestors. They had all moved from their homelands to Seoul for fame and benefit. However, not all aristocratic families were as fortunate as the Kim Family. Some of them had returned to their original homes defeated, and maintained the dignity of an aristocratic family there. Others gradually went into decline, and their names were removed from the register of aristocratic families in the end.

Jiyong being able to forewarn of Seoul's earthquake was enough to leave behind a mark on the history books. How many other people in the world were able to predict disasters? Jiyong managed to do it and save tens of thousands of people in Jing from a disaster. In the future, even if the Kim Family did not have any capable and virtuous person appear, as long as nothing was wrong with their heads and they did things they should not, they could live well in the next few decades.

Due to this, the Kim Family was a good family to form a marriage relationship with. The pity was that three of Marquis Kim's four children were married. Only the youngest daughter was still not of age.

A young girl of twelve could look for marriage matches ahead of time, but the Kim Family seemed to not even remember this matter. Even if someone came to their home regarding this, the matriarch of the Kim Family, Chaerin, deflected the matter. Even when Chaerin's family came to test the waters, she did not agree.

There had long been rumors that Jiyong favored his youngest daughter among his children. This appeared to be true. A few days ago, when the Lee Family entrusted someone to ask, the Kim Family had not agreed.

The Lee Family was ranked equal to the Jung Family. If some other family had received a request from the Lee Family, they would have happily agreed a long time ago.

Because of this incident, when the second young master of the Lee Family, Lee Mark, appeared, many people wanted to watch and see if something would happen.

But with the family education of the Lee and Kim Families, would they do something that shamed their status in public?

"Miss Kim." Mark sat with dignity on horseback and exchanged a greeting with Lisa with a smile. "Have you been well recently?"

"Young Master Lee." Lisa returned the smile and softly patted her horse's head. The horse stopped moving and appeared extremely intelligent. "Pretty well."

Mark saw her horse stop obediently when she touched its head. His eyes smiled. "This is a good horse." He wanted to say, only a good master could make a horse so smart.

Lisa was happy that her hor

se was complimented, and her smile grew more evident. Hearing the sound of hooves behind her, she looked back. Several young masters of aristocratic families were racing madly, but the group slowed down after seeing the two of them.
