She looked at Luo Qingtong's exquisitely beautiful face, a hint of displeasure flashing across her expression.
Qiu Manling returned to the Ling Family with her mother. As the daughter of the Ling Family who had married the best, she was very confident in her standing within the family.
The Qiu Family also had a considerable reputation in Lanyue County within the Da Qin Holy Dynasty.
For instance, a Commandery is an Affiliated Country established by Princes of Commanderies under the Da Qin Holy Dynasty.
Although affiliated with the Da Qin Holy Dynasty, tributes must still be paid to the Holy Dynasty.
But irrespective of their strength or status, they all overshadow the Empire.
Being born in Lanyue County naturally made Qiu Manling proud.
If it weren't for the Ling Family gaining the imperial throne of Tianyu Empire, she would not have returned to the Ling Family.
Seeing Old Sir Ling treating Luo Qingtong so closely and respectfully immediately made her feel imbalanced.
The way he treated her was not even close to this.
Could it be that she, a legitimate daughter from the Qiu Family of Lanyue County, had a status inferior to this young lady in front of her?
Qiu Manling certainly did not think that the Ling Family could recognize a legitimate daughter from a family more powerful than her own.
After all, it was said that the imperial succession this time was secured by the Evil Doctor Ghost Eyes!
If the Ling Family had connections within the Da Qin Holy Dynasty, why would they need someone else's assistance?
Thinking this, Qiu Manling's expression became even more arrogant and dissatisfied.
"I don't know either," replied a girl from the Ling Family, shaking her head: "But I heard she is the legitimate daughter from the Luo Family of Dongli Country?"
She heard the name Qingtong, which rang a bell, as the latter was engaged to Yuwen Mo.
Soon, she remembered the identity of Luo Qingtong, and she immediately told Qiu Manling.
Hearing that her opponent was merely a legitimate daughter from a Lower-class Marquis Mansion and was betrothed to the former Yuwen Royal Family, Qiu Manling's face instantly showed a trace of disdain.
People of the Ling Family really lacked confidence!
Such a person was also worth pleasing!
Fearing that she would cause them trouble?
Indeed, since they did not overthrow the previous imperial family by their own strength, they naturally lacked confidence!
But what about this Luo Qingtong?
The Yuwen Family was destroyed, and here she was still showing up seeking benefits?
If it were her, she wouldn't have the audacity.
Qiu Manling looked at Luo Qingtong with great disdain.
After Old Sir Ling and Luo Qingtong finished their conversation and left, she stepped forward with a group of Ling Family's young members, raising her head to look at Luo Qingtong and said: "I don't know where Sister comes from? Seeing our group of young masters and misses from the Ling Family without saluting, you must have an extraordinary background, right? I wonder if you could share it with us?"
Speaking, she said with a smile: "Let me introduce myself first, Da Qin Holy Dynasty, Lanyue County, legitimate daughter of the Qiu Family, Qiu Manling!"
Knowing Luo Qingtong's identity, she deliberately inquired, also mentioning her own identity and the matter of saluting, as she was pressuring Luo Qingtong!
"Manling." Hearing her words, the young girl beside her hurriedly tugged at her.
No matter the background of the other party, after all, she was a guest of Old Sir Ling, targeting her like this was not very suitable.
Luo Qingtong raised an eyebrow, looking at the girl standing in front of her.
So, she was using her status to pressure her?
Luo Qingtong found this somewhat amusing.
With her status as the Holy Sealing Princess of the Great Chu Sacred Dynasty, even if the Da Qin Saint Emperor himself were standing here, she wouldn't kneel, bow, or salute.
This Miss from the Qiu Family of Lanyue County, however, thought she could use her status to pressure her?
