Chapter 153 The Opening Day
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Darkness gradually wrapped around the city, and evening lights began to lighten the streets.
The Musical House, which was located in the Fragrance Alley on the East Main Street, was about to usher in its busiest hours of a day. Faint music and singing were fluttering out from the alley. Like the Rouge River running across the end of the Fragrance Alley in the east, the melodies of singing and dancing could be heard in the alley every evening, luring numerous men to go in and have a look.
Li Mu, who had never been here before, followed the lead of Zheng Cunjian and entered the Fragrance Alley.
This alley was much wider and stretching much further than the Pig-Herding Alley. The road was several kilometers in length and could accommodate four carriages driven by eight horses to run shoulder by shoulder. The ground was paved with the best flagstones, which fit smoothly and were very neat. The alley was lined with delicately-built wooden houses

"Fu*k!" "What did I do to deserve that hostility and sarcasm?" Li Mu felt he had been wronged out of no reason. "It's not me who claimed that I have peerless intelligence. It's this brownnose, Zheng Cunjian... And even if I did say it, it has nothing to do with you lot. Do you just have to mock me like that?" For a moment, Li Mu simply wanted to snap back. But after giving it a thought, he decided to let it go, because tonight he was here to experience... no... to admire the beauty of the girls in the brothel. He did not want the little conflict to grow into a bummer. Sitting next to him, Zheng Cunjian narrowed his eyes. In the city of Chang'an, there were only a few people who dared to taunt him, but the men at the neighboring table were certainly not one of them. However, since Li Mu didn't flip at their rudeness, he was not in the position to meddle in. But he deliberately bore the faces of those
The Divine Martial Stars Chapter 155 Beauty Poem
Soon, more than a dozen people came to the table one by one to write their own poems down, but their level was not as good as that previous arrogant man. Instead, they not only couldn't win the fame but also were laughed at by others. Thus, they failed and retreated in dejection. None of their poems could be selected for hanging, but they were treated as waste paper, which was directly smashed and thrown into the wastepaper basket on one side. About half an hour later, another man who looked like a businessman from another place wrote a poem about a beautiful woman, which was full of artistic conception. Although it was not as excellent as Beauty Poem by the arrogant sloven, it was also readable. Hence, it was selected to hang at a height of the second floor. Then, that ecdemic businessman was transported with joy. However, that slovenly and arrogant man directly sneered, "Hanging together with your poem, Beauty Poem by me, Son
The Divine Martial Stars Chapter 156 Prove?
When Li Mu wrote the first sentence, people in the entire hall were laughing at him. However, when he finished writing, everyone was silent. Because there was no need to comment at all, and anyone could see that the last Beauty Poem, whether in artistic conception or writing, had completely defeated the other nine poems. Even the poems of the madman Song Qingfei, Lin Qiushui, the chief disciple of the Hanshan Academy, or Liu Muyang, the chief disciple of Fengming Academy were also far inferior to that poem. The first glance could cause the fall of a city; the second glance could cause the fall of a state. It was simply an eternal unique sentence. Many people silently read this poem. Every time they read it again, they would have different feelings, which would emerge endlessly, as if they were never tired of reading it. They also involuntarily immersed themselves in that mood. Just when everyone was

To put it more seriously, this was because the three of them looked for trouble and had actually messed up with a poetry genius. However, they were easily humiliated by his several words. In the future, no matter when and where, anyone who mentioned the allusion of the two sentences would inevitably mention the three who were regarded as a foot plate. Of course, more people were shocked by Li Mu's poetry talent. "This boy, where does he come from? Considering such excellent poetry talent, why haven't we known him before?" "Is he a foreigner?" "Tonight, perhaps we will witness the birth of a poetry legend." Some people started to talk about it. With a gloomy face and evil eyes, Lin Qiushui clenched his teeth and stood on the spot. Finally, he made a decision and signal at that short scholar to come here. He then whispered to the scholar, "Quickly. You must tell the teacher. This matter concerns the ce

Hua Xiangrong associated it with other past events. She used to be a daughter of a noble family, but unfortunately, she fell into the brothel because of her guilty family. Although she was known as oiran, none of the girls from respectable family wanted to get such a reputation. Wensheng Chamber was extremely generous and Mother Bai also really cared about her, but she was inevitably forced to receive customer, which showed that she was no one but an unlucky person. This poem simply told her inner bitterness. "Young Master is really unparalleled in poetry. I have never seen such a man like Young Master who is so gifted in poetry," Hua Xiangrong couldn't help asking, "This poem seems to be incomplete. I don't know if Young Master can..." Before the words were finished, Li Mu directly interrupted her, saying, "I just made it out of my feeling, so I only thought these two sentences. There is nothing else." "Oh," Hua

"No." Li Mu subconsciously turned his head and looked again. He found that the musicians who played lutes and blown pipe instruments were also naked. They, with beautiful naked bodies, were sitting on the rush cushions and playing music solemnly. "What's the matter?" It was relatively reasonable that one person was naked, but it was quite strange... that all the people in the room were naked. Li Mu realized that there might be something wrong. "Is it an illusion?" He blinked. "Young Master? Young Master..." maid Xin'er whispered on one side, "Young Master, you are bleeding." "Oh, nosebleeds. It's normal... Ah? What? Nose blood... sh*t," Li Mu quickly raised his hand and touched it. It turned out to be two streams of nosebleeds. Gosh. His nosebleeds should come out by the strike. "This is so embarrassing. After all, I am a Great Master who stirred up the Chang'an City. I ha

This was one of the three poems in 'Qingping Poetry' made by a poet in the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai. It was said that on the banquet of Emperor Xuanzong and Lady Yang, Li Bai made poems. In the heat of passion, he let Gao Lishi, the first son of an official, take off his boots and Lady Yang ground inkstick. The three poems made smoothly by him were passed through ages, and this one was one of them, especially the first sentence—'One would think of her colorful clothing when seeing clouds, and her beautiful look when seeing flowers', incomparably fitted today, which exactly echoed the name of Master Hua. When such a poem was made, Hua Xiangrong's eyes immediately lit up. When she looked at Li Mu again, a kind of indescribable emotion was in her eyes. Maid Xin'er and several other female musicians were also extremely shocked. Pairs of graceful eyes fell on Li Mu as if they were to see through Li Mu's body. Was he really a poetry geni

The musicians all drew back and left the room. "Miss Hua, you really... Well, I don't know what to say." Xin'er sighed, deploring greatly. "Miss, you didn't really fell for that little scholar, did you?" Hua Xiangrong gave a sweet smile and directly sat on the floor despite her normal lofty image. She fanned her hair and put her fine legs up playfully as she asked, "What's up, my dear sister? Isn't he a decent man that worth my crush? Isn't he brilliant?" "He is brilliant. But... Well," Xin'er reminded her and said bitterly, "You only just met him." "For some, it is still meaningless even after a thousand visits. But for the other, the first encounter is already enough to steal my heart." Beaming, Hua Xiangrong dangled her white, cute feet perkily, her fine ankles and smooth toes swinging from one side to the other. She was, after all, a girl at the age of sixteen, still preserving traces of childishness. When the

Li Mu's cultivation nowadays was at the peak of the Golden Immortal, and his battle power could cut down the first generals.If one were to obtain a drop of Immortal Marrow, one could instantly leap into the peak of Immortal Generals, and at that time, even if one were to face an Immortal King, one would be able to defeat him in battle, not to mention traversing across the major state capitals, even if it was the entire Eastern Sacred Continent, the heavens and the earth were vast, and one could go to it.At that time, it would be like a fish out of water to find Wang Shiyu, Hua Wanyong, and the others.At that thought, Li Mu immediately became desirous of this Immortal Marrow."One drop of Immortal Marrow, one great realm, so if a bottle of Immortal Marrow were all swallowed, wouldn't it directly soar into the Immortal Emperor, Immortal Emperor or even Immortal Lord realm?" Li Mu said.Xia Jing was stunned and then giggled."I didn't expect that

Uh-huh?What a scene of déjà vu.Li Mu all of a sudden, remembered the legendary Liu Huangshu Baidicheng entrusted the orphan.It's a pity that the Emperor is not Uncle Liu.And Li Mu is not Zhuge Kongming.Li Mu said indifferently, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I can make a dao oath that I won't taint the imperial power of Huangji Cliff for the rest of my life.""Cough cough cough ......" the emperor coughed, hastily said: "I ...... am not using words to frame you, I... ...In the chaotic world, there is no strength, sooner or later ...... sooner or later is the death ...... of the disaster ...... wood brother you if you are the emperor, or you may be able to ...... preserve a trace of my bloodline, I ......"Li Mu said, "Your Majesty's meaning, I understand, but my words remain the same, I will never dye the royal fist, Emperor Chen will be a bright ruler."The emperor sighed and said, "I understand ...... all ...... all stand down ....

Reimu smiled.Snap your fingers.Phew.A golden stream of light flashed by.Emperor Zhen, who was roaring at the top of his lungs, his voice came to an abrupt end, and his hands covered his neck, a splash of blood seeped out, followed by golden flames, which spewed out from his body."You ...... you dare to kill me?"He looked at Li Mu incredulously and eventually turned into a puff of flying ash.In the great hall, there was an instant dead silence.The horrific images, although they had ended, the aftermath was still like a hurricane, still madly hitting everyone's nerves over and over again.Prince Wood actually went out and killed someone?He actually made a move?Killing a royal son with royal blood flowing in his body right here in this great hall?He dared.He really dared.All the ministers felt that their bodies were cold, as if they had fallen into an ice cave, like the cold winter of the t

The other ministers in the hall, hearing such words, could not help but look at Zheng Yuan with shocked gazes.The so-called Emperor Tatsu's son is a wild seed, this kind of thing, if you don't explode it sooner or later, and you don't explode it at this time, what is the intention?Besides, it's not certain whether it's true or not.Saying such words in such an important meeting of the court was tantamount to slapping the emperor's face in public and rubbing the emperor's majesty, on the ground.What a nerve.On one side, Servant Yin's face changed wildly as she shook her head and argued, "No, it's not like that, Chen'er is His Majesty's child ...... "When the Emperor intended to set up Emperor Chen as the Crown Prince just now, she vaguely realized that this was a dangerous signal, the treacherous darkness of the palace court was not something she could resist as a small servant girl.But I didn't expect the slander and danger to come so

"Tatsu-chan!"Servant Yin was filled with a huge surprise in her chest and subconsciously rushed over to the little boy and held him in her arms."Mother, you're here too ...... Mother, I've seen father."The little boy dug into Squire Yin's arms with delight.His first words had to do with his parents.But many snickers resounded clearly and audibly in the great hall.Although no one said anything, the meaning was clear: 'Father' is a word you call, too?Servant Yin, however, didn't pay that much attention.In the instant she saw her son, her heart, without the slightest bit of nervousness or panic, held her son firmly in her arms, and the only thought in her entire life and soul at that moment was to protect her son at all costs."Do not make a noise and stand aside."The Grand Eunuch opened his mouth to chide.The little boy then kept his mouth tightly shut.He was foolish and hadn't seen much of the world, b

A cold aura flickered.A sword to the death.The sharp sword was about to pierce the young maid's brow.Just then, a sudden change occurred.Suddenly space and time seemed to freeze, and the black-clothed assassin realized that his immortal sword, after all, was no longer able to progress the slightest bit.What's going on?He was alarmed in his mind.And yet the next moment--Ding!The sword body incredibly broke apart and turned into countless shards.The tip of the sword flew backward and penetrated the black-clothed assassin's throat.Before the blood could soar out, his body erupted into a ball of golden flames, which then turned into flying ash and dissipated into the air.The little maid looked at what was in front of her in shock.In that moment just now, she thought she was bound to die.It turned out to be the assassin who died.Who saved me?She gasped in horror and looked arou
The Divine Martial Stars Chapter 1230 Assassination
The Emperor was sitting on the throne of the Nine to Five, a little tired.The fact that he was poisoned was not revealed to the public.So until now, no one has known.But the toxin was eating away at his body so frantically that his energy was declining so much that his entire body felt extremely tired at all times.The sound of ministers' ears arguing seemed near and far away in the ear.The hand-wringing Prince Tatsu was led by the great eunuch and stood on the side of the dragon chair.Eight or nine year old boy, for the first time out of that small compound, face full of fear, timid, like a small goat caught in a wolf pack, not knowing what to do, lowered his head, twisted the corner of his coat, did not even dare to come out of the atmosphere.This look, in the eyes of the ministers, is even more unbearable."Your Majesty's intention to establish a Crown Prince is a major event, and should not be done in haste, perhaps it should

The little boy did not return until late afternoon.The young maid tried to inquire about the news several times, but was mercilessly stopped by the palace's close guards guarding the entrance of the firewood courtyard.She had been until, herself, she was secluded.This alarmed the young maid even more.What the hell is going on?What kind of terrible things would Tatsu'er face if he went to the palace?The Empress and the Noble Consorts, they won't poison him, will they?Why did His Majesty suddenly summon Chen'er to the palace?She speculated in her mind in fear, her tears were like a fountain that she could not control at all.It's a mother's love for her son.Humble but great love.Kneeling on both knees in the courtyard, she looked up at the Hao Sun that was gradually setting in the sky, and at the silver full moon that had already risen, shedding tears and silently praying with her life and soul."Tatsu'e
The Divine Martial Stars Chapter 1228 Prince Tatsu
The Emperor was at the half-step Golden Immortal level of cultivation, and although this realm was forcefully instilled with various resources and secret techniques, the realm was enough after all.The lifespan of a half-step Golden Immortal could be more than five thousand years.So the Emperor never thought that he would have to face death head on, so soon."It's so ...... ungrateful."He smiled bitterly on his face and sighed deeply on the inside.But in the end, you have to face reality.The biggest problem to consider today was who should inherit the throne of Huangji Cliff after his death.He had only ascended the throne as emperor for just over two years, and because he was diligent in his political affairs and too young, he had not even considered the matter of the succession of the throne.In the harem, there are but one wife and two concubines.These three women were not his true love, but were allied for the sake of pr
