Standing next to him, Bai Xuan also caught on what was happening. With a rather abashed look, she said, "What can we do now? Someone is giving Hua'er a hard time on purpose? No wonder that kind of result came out from the professional rating... This is... Well, it's me to blame. Hua'er, it's all my fault. If I didn't ask you to participate in the Top Beauty Competition, there would not be so many twists and turns. Perhaps at this time you would have already removed your registration and left with Young Master Li and turned a new leaf. But now... Alas."
She was seized by a twinge of self-accusation.
That remark spurred Li Mu into holding this madam in higher esteem.
"She does have some kindness after all. After hearing this news, the first thing came to her mind is not that the failure of Hua Xiangrong to be the Top Beauty would damage the interests of her Holy House. Instead, she is concerned about Hua Xiangrong's safety... That proves she r
After the two stages of the flower baskets summary and the professional comments, the candidate ranking the first was Lu Hongxiu, from the Yi Cui House; the second was Xue Rui, from the Fufeng House; the third was Si Yuhua, from the Soft Jade Hall. Naturally, the poems for the three famous prostitutes were given most of the attention. So far, the poem for Yi Cui House's Lu Hongxiu had not been posted yet. But the madam of Yi Cui House, who had long since settled herself in a seat at the area for distinguished guests, was sporting a smile as bright as a blossom. She just could not stop smiling. Because when she was rebuked by Liu Chenglong, the manager of the Musical House at the backstage, she reckoned she was doomed. But to her surprise, Liu Chenglong paid a specific visit to her shortly afterward and told her unequivocally that a man of high rank intended to support Lu Hongxiu from the Yi Cui House. Then, at the professional
Bai Xuan calmly stepped onto the stage with a roll of white paper in her hands and handed it to the two soldiers of Musical House. Then, they hang it on the last poetry-hanging seat. That leader began to sing loudly- "Poem of watching Hua Xiangrong dance alone beneath the moon; reads..." As soon as the name of the poem was reported, the crowd on Liufang Street suddenly exclaimed. Lu Xue on the VIP seat even couldn't help but laugh. In the Deluxe Suite Titled Heaven of Moon-hugging House, a glimpse of contempt flashed upon the second prince's eyes, while Liu Chenglong, the director of Musical House, also broke into laughter. "Even copied the poem name?" "Is this Li Mu's level?" "The title of this poem is almost the same as that of the century poem that was written for Lu Hongxiu by the second prince, but it is only changed from Lu Hongxiu into Hua Xiangrong. At least from t
When Bai Xuan returned to her VIP seat, congratulations were engulfing her. She glanced at Lu Xue and saw her face full of upset, and then she could not help feeling more and more pleased. At this time, she became the center of the crowd, since being able to cultivate a Top Beauty was the highest goal pursued by every madam from brothels. Now, her goal was realized, and her dream became a reality. At this time, there would be no more changes. Supported by a millennium poem, Hua Xiangrong undoubtedly became the Top Beauty in this Top Beauty Competition. It was said that Liu Chenglong, the director of Musical House, had other affairs to deal with, so he did not personally announce the results as he had done before. But this was no longer important. After the three kinds of scores were combined, Hua Xiangrong's final score was on the top of the list, and the result was announced together by several cele
No matter how glorious the past represented by the name of Hua Xiangrong was, even including the fame of Top Beauty, Hua Xiangrong herself, from the beginning, was forced to receive this name, which was just a kind of compromise to life. For many women who fell into Musical House, it was basically an illusion to restore their original names. Hua Xiangrong was originally named Shangguan Yuting, a girl from Shangguan family. The words "Shangguan Yuting" represented a kind of bloodline, a home and also the best life of the past, and were the most precious thing her parents had given her. "But I have not yet deregistered. If I directly restore my real name, isn't it..." After her great excitement, Hua Xiangrong was still a little hesitant. From the previous signs, it was not easy to be free from Musical House. Li Mu replied, "It's just a form. If I want to take you away from Musical House, no one can stop me. Besides,
This girl was the only daughter of a rich businessman who had committed crimes. Because her father violated the law of the empire, the family property was confiscated, and she was penalized into Musical House. Because of her good look, she was treated as the first item in this auction after being trained for a period by Chang'an Musical House. It was just a warm-up part of this activity. The veil on her face was removed, and her black hair poured down. The young girl exclaimed and opened her eyes worriedly. When seeing a sea of people, she suddenly became shy and angry. She wanted to use her hands to cover the key parts of her body, but with her hands being handcuffed, she couldn't do that. Thus, she suddenly became quite grieved. She was struggling to run off the stage but was pulled by two strong servants. How could she struggle to get off? "Don't. Let me go... whoo whoo whoo... Father, mother, save Wan'er..." she cried out helplessly.
Though having been confined in the Musical House for many days, it was during those days that they heard Li Mu's name a million times from those maids and leaders of the Musical House who all addressed him as the poetry and martial arts whiz. They also learned how Hua Xiangrong had turned the tide and championed the competition tonight from scraps of conversations among the maids. Undoubtedly, in the eyes of the girls, the name 'Li Mu' represented a kind of hope and wonderfulness. Because Hua Xiangrong, who shared the same fate with them, had changed her destiny as she obtained Li Mu's favor. When they felt scared and helpless, they, too, had dreamed about meeting a man like Li Mu, who would rescue them from the demonic Musical House just like Li Mu rescuing Hua Xiangrong. But now, the real Li Mu was standing right before them. "Of course he is Young Master Mu. Who else could he be?" Xin'er took of t
Room No. 7 housed a total of 10 men—the pasture Army Advisor, the young master of the Western Qin branch of World Chamber of Commerce, and the pasture experts, including the young tribe chief who looked as unwavering as an iron tower. The instant they saw the first pasture slave was dragged onto the stage, all of them looked enlivened. "It's Cao, a female guard serving for the Virgin Goddess Qing Yan. She is only 16..." A pasture guard hollered emotionally in their pasture language. The eyes of all the men from the pasture reflected flames of fury. "How can Grassland God's most brilliant daughter be insulted by the Qin people like this? The hatred between the Qin and the pasture won't be dissolved until we destroy you!" The young pasture Army Advisor knitted his brows. He felt the situation was steering to a not very desirable direction. If the Virgin Goddess Qing Yan and her 46 Wolf Warriors would be auctioned one by one, it w
It was widely known that Liang Yifei was a depraved playboy. He was particularly interested in beautiful women. Only God knew how many young innocent girls he had snatched. And precisely during one of that vile deeds, he was caught by Tang Chong, who just returned to the capital with his troops to visit the emperor after securing a huge victory. The latter did not give him any chance to find excuses and directly broke his legs and threw him to the prison. If it had not been that imperial tutor of his who bought off various officials to rescue him, perhaps he had already been exiled to the bleak and remote border area to die. Therefore, Liang Yifei's hatred towards Tang Chong was at the bursting point. "I have no interest in this baby girl. All I want is Tang Chong's older daughter, Tang Tang." Han Feiran, the nephew of the Minister of Rituals, hummed, "Yeah, the blood of such a young and pretty girl must taste great!" He was a young man dressing like a sc
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 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 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
