Chapter 815 (Because He's Sexy)
After saying all of this, Qing Yutong fell silent.
"Is that all?" Donghuang Baizhi exclaimed.
"Yes, that's it," Qing Yutong exclaimed.
Qing Ya gave her younger sister's head a firm smack. "I asked you to complain, not to praise him!"
"Ouch, sis, that hurts! You messed up my hairstyle," Qing Yutong complained.
"Hurry up and continue."
"Alright, alright, can't I complain?" Qing Yutong pouted and said softly, "Brother-in-law... um... his bad side is that he likes to keep me up from dusk till dawn. It's so annoying. The more I beg him to stop, the more he insists on continuing. I've even considered just playing dead, and that actually seemed to work a bit. He was really hurting me."
Hearing Qing Yutong's words, Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi blushed. Her addition to the list of grievances was perfect. Ye Hua was like the epitome of a tyrannical ruler, with all these flaws rolled into one.
Daji blushed as well. She realised that her master was quite formidable, able to keep going from dusk till dawn. She must be very happy as the mistress. But from what the mistresses had said, it seemed like they disliked it.
"Madam, may Daji ask a question?" Daji inquired.
"Go ahead," Qing Ya replied casually.
"If the master is so bad, why do the mistresses still like him?" Daji asked curiously.
The three women looked at each other and then said in unison, "Because he's sexy!"
After saying that, all three women giggled. Ye Hua belonged to the 'quietly seductive' type. He might seem serious on the surface, but when he gets going, it's unbearable.
Achoo!
Ye Hua, who was lost in thought, sneezed and muttered, "These three women must be talking behind my back. Well, let them have their fun."
Daji didn't understand. What does being 'sexy' have to do with liking someone?
"Ladies, we've arrived," the carriage driver respectfully announced from outside.
Daji was the first to step out of the carriage, then she helped each of the mistresses down. This was what a good female servant should do.
The four veiled women stood at the entrance outside the main palace, where more than ten guards were stationed.
Although it was nighttime, the moonlight illuminated the four women, creating an alluring and mysterious aura with their veils, causing the guards to lose their focus momentarily.
A eunuch hurried out and said, "Ladies, please come in. The Emperor and the Crown Prince are waiting for you."
The Emperor?
Donghuang Baizhi thought it was just the Crown Prince's banquet, but she hadn't expected the Emperor to be present as well.
Daji stood behind the three women, bowing slightly.
Since they had come this far, they couldn't just turn back. If they did, there would likely be a fight...
"Let's go in and take a look," Qing Ya said softly. As one of the legitimate consorts, her words carried weight.
Inside the palace at this moment, there was music and dancing.
In the centre of the grand hall, several beautiful women were gracefully dancing.
Sitting beside them were not only the Crown Prince but also a young man who appeared extremely composed. This person was none other than Chu Yuxuan, the elder of Benevolent King Prison!
Beside Chu Yuxuan, there were two empty seats, presumably meant for Qu Ziming and Yuan Qing, but they probably couldn't make it.
Seated at the highest position was the Emperor, Gu Pi.
To the lower left was the Crown Prince, Gu Haoran, and the young man next to him was the Third Prince, Gu Cha. Gu Cha had been trying to topple the Crown Prince but hadn't found the opportunity.
"Elder Chu, are you enjoying the dance? The lead dancer is my Azure Dragon Empire's beauty, Puyu," Emperor Gu Pi, an old man who gave off a mischievous vibe, joked. He was known as a mischievous old man, and his words weren't to be trusted.
It was normal to flatter Chu Yuxuan in this way since he was a renowned elder!
Puyu indeed had some charm. While dancing, she would occasionally glance at Chu Yuxuan. After all, he was the youngest warden of the Benevolent King Prison! A bright future was ahead of him, and it was said that he was also a powerful practitioner of the Heavenly Way, but no one knew if it was true or false. If she could catch his eye, she might soar to new heights.
Chu Yuxuan glanced at Puyu, who blushed and lowered her head.
Chu Yuxuan smirked inwardly. She was just a makeup-covered face, not worthy of his attention.
'I, Chu Yuxuan had fallen off a cliff at the age of three, obtained a fairy's cave at six, acquired a tattered ancient scroll at ten, and reached the Master level at ten years old. At thirteen, I slapped all those who looked down on me. At eighteen, I became the elder, and while in the eyes of others, I'm just a rank-one Master, in reality, I'm already at the peak of the King level.'
He could move the earth, part mountains, and his tongue could do wonders.
Did a woman like her deserve someone like him? What a joke!
The Emperor chuckled heartily. "Elder Chu, you are talented at such a young age. I admire you!"
Saying that, Emperor Gu Pi lifted his wine glass and drained it, while Chu Yuxuan remained motionless. Emperor Gu Pi didn't mind; it was a normal reaction.
After all, the Benevolent King Prison was no ordinary place.
Chu Yuxuan looked at the empty seats beside him and wondered why they hadn't arrived yet.
Well, it was probably for the best. They were just two burdens.
After the dance, Emperor Gu Pi waved his hand, and the dancers gracefully left the stage. As Puyu walked off, she couldn't help but steal a glance at Chu Yuxuan. Why didn't he seem interested in her?
In the palace, Crown Prince Gu Haoran stood up and said, "Father, Elder Chu, speaking of beauties, I've recently found a few. How about having Director Chu and Father appreciate them?"
On the side, Gu Cha casually remarked, "Is the Crown Prince looking for beauties again? You're working hard."
Gu Haoran's face darkened, and he wished he could strangle his half-brother Gu Cha.
Emperor Gu Pi sighed and said sternly, "Crown Prince! How many times have I told you to focus on your duties!"
"Father, why don't you take a look first before scolding your son?" Gu Haoran could only place his hopes on Zhang Jing now, hoping that Zhang Jing had good taste and wouldn't embarrass him. Otherwise, he would not only lose face today but also face his father's reprimand. Gu Cha was enjoying this situation.
Emperor Gu Pi waved his hand, indicating they could proceed.
Gu Haoran looked at Zhang Jing not far away, and Zhang Jing gave him a reassuring glance, assuring the Crown Prince that he wouldn't embarrass him.
"Please welcome the four ladies!" A eunuch called out, and the grand doors slowly opened, revealing the figures of Qing Ya and the others as they entered.
