Chapter 98 Ji Bingyan

The people who hated "Yue Nujiao" the most tonight were undoubtedly the brothers Cao Wenrong and Cao Wenfu. Of course, other

officials also harbored considerable resentment towards "Yue Nujiao." This stemmed mainly from

her ruthless attack at the Jiangshan Restaurant, where she broke the limbs and severed the bones of a group of aristocratic playboys, leaving them

bedridden and unable to get out of bed. According to the imperial physician, even if they recovered from their injuries, their martial arts skills would be crippled, rendering them no different from

ordinary people , or even worse. Losing martial arts skills is tantamount to being a cripple. These aristocratic youths

, accustomed to being domineering and tyrannical, robbing men and women, and abusing their power, were now completely powerless. How could they possibly endure it?

Many of the noble officials present today were fathers of crippled noble sons. They

harbored deep resentment and hated "Yuen Slave Jiao" with a burning rage, wishing they

could break her limbs and bones. Of course, raping and then killing her would be even better. They had previously joined forces to confront Princess Jingguo at her residence,

complaining to Princess Jingguo and Madam Fan. However, Princess Jingguo completely approved of "Yuen Slave Jiao's" actions

and expelled all the officials who had complained. Upon arriving at the princess's residence, the officials declared, "My guards

were lenient by breaking your sons' arms and legs. If it were me, I would have broken their necks. If you wish to take revenge,

come at me!"

Princess Jingguo, protective of her own, showed great favor to "Yuen Nü Jiao," leaving the officials no choice but to turn to Grand Tutor Cao for intervention

. They reasoned that since "Yuen Nü Jiao" had injured Cao Wenrong and Cao Wenfu,

Grand Tutor Cao would surely be furious. However, he remained completely silent, acting as if nothing had happened. Now, everyone was at a loss, forced

to accept their misfortune and harbor resentment.

Wu Tianjiao, disguised as "Yuen Nü Jiao," sat at a table reserved for important attendants behind Princess Jingguo and Madam Fan

. Yu Yilong was also seated at the same table. Yu Yilong wasn't as

attentive , but he still chatted warmly with Wu Tianjiao, speaking in casual conversation. It seemed he had changed his "tactics" and was

taking a gradual approach.

Wu Tianjiao was helpless with Yu Yilong; they were sitting at the same table, and he couldn't ignore him, so he could only

respond with half-hearted words. Suddenly, he felt a pair of sharp eyes fall on him. Instinctively, he knew

it was Cao Wenrong, but he didn't bother to pay attention to him and pretended not to notice.

At this moment, footsteps sounded, and a master of ceremonies came out from the inner building and shouted, "The Empress Dowager and

His Majesty have arrived!"

As soon as the voice fell, the officials on the Golden Eagle Tower and the tens of thousands of people along the Imperial River fell silent.

Then, the melodious sound of string and wind instruments rose from the inner building, followed by another round of footsteps.

Wu Tianjiao pondered, "The Empress Dowager and the old Emperor are coming out. Last time I went to the palace, I heard that the old Emperor

was in poor health and bedridden. Today, he's actually able to attend the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet. He must have taken some divine medicine."

Just then, footsteps reached the inner gate, and the Empress Dowager and Emperor Xuanhe,

surrounded by a group of burly imperial guards and concubines, slowly walked out.

Hundreds of officials upstairs and tens of thousands of people downstairs knelt on the ground, shouting in unison, "Long live the Empress Dowager

! Long live the Empress Dowager! Long live the Empress Dowager!"

Then they shouted, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

Their voices shook the entire area!

Wu Tianjiao glanced over and saw the Empress Dowager, dressed in magnificent robes, elegant and graceful,

walking slowly with the support of two maids. Behind her followed Emperor Xuanhe, who, in Wu Tianjiao's eyes, was an eyesore.

Not only was he old, but he also appeared sickly and half-dead. His protruding belly made him look obese, and

his sallow, puffy face clearly indicated illness; he looked like he was about to enter a coffin. This old

, ugly, and dying emperor standing next to the elegant and dignified Empress Dowager was utterly incongruous, a complete

spoiler of the scene and an eyesore.

Beside the old emperor were two beautiful women in palace attire, both extremely stunning. In terms of beauty, they were both exceptional, each

possessing their own unique charm.

One of them was exceptionally beautiful, dignified and graceful, tall and elegant, spirited yet

exuding a captivating charm, radiating the aura of a mature woman. However, a hint of resentment lingered in her brows, and her eyes

held a deep loneliness and a touch of sorrow, instantly evoking pity.

Wu Tianjiao recognized the woman; she was none other than Consort Lu, the Western Palace Consort and sister of Grand Tutor Lu.

The other woman was Consort Cao, the Eastern Palace Consort. Consort Cao was renowned for her allure and sensuality, an extremely seductive and

alluring beauty. She possessed almond-shaped eyes and peach-blossom cheeks, her captivating gaze

possessing a mesmerizing power. Her voluptuous figure exuded a powerful, sensual allure, instantly igniting lust in anyone who saw her, making them want to pin her down

and ravage her until they were exhausted.

Most importantly, although Consort Cao was inherently seductive, she possessed an unapproachable, dignified air.

Every movement she made was composed and reserved, her demeanor aloof, making men even more aroused. Clearly, she understood the male psychology that

the harder something was to obtain, the more precious it became. Wu Tianjiao had already tasted the green hats of

the three women in the imperial harem: Empress Cao Tian'e and Consort Cao Jin'e. She had cuckolded the old emperor twice, or rather, three times. There was also the disfavored Consort Yan. Well, it wasn't so much that she was disfavored, but rather that the old emperor was getting old and weak, and nearing his deathbed. With so many beauties in the harem, how could he possibly give his favor to everyone? He looked like he was about to die. If he were to actually sleep with a concubine, it would inevitably raise concerns that he might die on a woman's belly . 　　Upon seeing Consort Cao and Consort Lu, Wu Tianjiao suddenly thought, "Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday, such an important banquet. Consort Cao and Consort Lu are both present, but where is Empress Cao Tian'e? Why isn't she here ?" 　　This was not only a question in Wu Tianjiao's mind, but also in the minds of most people present. Of course, Wu Tianjiao even more so. Since his parting with Empress Cao Tian'e in Hundred Flowers Valley of Lingxiao Mountain, Cao Tian'e had returned to the capital and had not made any further contact. She had not fulfilled the three-year agreement they had made. Even the Grand Elder of the Goddess Palace, the Ruthless Sword Cold Plum, who left Hundred Flowers Valley to search for Cao Tian'e in the capital, had disappeared without a trace. Wu Tianjiao had been in the capital for quite some time, yet Cao Tian'e had not sent anyone to look for him. Why was this? 　　Thinking of this, Wu Tianjiao vaguely felt that something must have happened to Empress Cao Tian'e. Otherwise, she wouldn't be acting this way.

Noticing the unusual behavior, and recalling seeing Feng Ying and Hua Xiang during her last trip out of the palace, Wu Tianjiao wondered, "Perhaps I can learn

something from them?"

Looking around, a thought struck him: "It's the Empress Dowager's fortieth birthday, why isn't Wu Wudi here?"

He saw the Empress Dowager, supported by her maids, taking her seat at the head of the table. Emperor Xuanhe and two imperial

concubines sat on either side of her, followed by other concubines and a group of princesses, with a valiant imperial guard standing

guard on either side of them. Wu Tianjiao's eyes were sharp; among Emperor Xuanhe's group of concubines, he spotted Consort Yan,

as well as Princess Wude, Princess Duanyang, Princess Tanxue, and Princess Tanxiang. Aside from these few, Wu Tianjiao

didn't recognize most of the others. Seeing so many women around Emperor Xuanhe, Wu Tianjiao couldn't help but feel jealous: "What use are so many women to a

half-dead , near-coffin old man? Give them all to me, and I'll

comfort them for you!"

Throughout the Golden Eagle Tower, Wu Tianjiao wasn't the only man with such wicked thoughts. Emperor Xuanhe was old and

nearing his end , but as the Emperor of the Divine Eagle Empire, one of the three great empires of the continent, he naturally had many women around him, each

one exceptional, and their daughters were all stunningly beautiful. It was inevitable that men would fantasize about him!

Today was the Empress Dowager's birthday, and as Emperor Xuanhe's mother, she naturally sat in the central seat. After

taking her seat , she said in a gentle yet authoritative voice, "All of you, rise!"

The crowd shouted, "Thank you, Your Majesty the Empress Dowager!"

and returned to their seats. Meanwhile, the tens of thousands of people along the Imperial River became even more active, constantly looking towards the Golden Eagle Tower and

discussing amongst themselves.

After the maid finished pouring the wine, the Empress Dowager smiled slightly, raised her cup solemnly, and said, "Today is my fortieth birthday.

I am determined to celebrate with all of you and the people. Please, no need for formalities; let us enjoy ourselves to the fullest. Tonight,

we will not leave until we are drunk !"

Everyone responded enthusiastically, and the atmosphere became very lively.

The Second Prince, Prince Jing, stood up with a broad smile and said, "Since my father's reign, our Divine Eagle Empire has enjoyed peace and

prosperity. The people live in peace and contentment, and no one picks up lost items on the road or locks their doors at night. My grandmother's kindness, compassion, and wisdom are

universally praised. On the occasion of my grandmother's fortieth birthday, I, your son, on behalf of all the people of the world, offer

a toast to my grandmother and father, wishing my grandmother a long and healthy life and my father a long and prosperous reign."

He then drank it all in one gulp.

The officials immediately echoed his sentiments, and the hall was filled with praise.

The Empress Dowager listened with a smile and nodded repeatedly, appearing very pleased and appreciative.

Prince Jing had seized the limelight, and Prince Fu, not wanting to be outdone, also stood up, intending to say something. However,

the Empress Dowager suddenly raised her cup and declared, "My lords, I toast you all!"

Prince Jing's side immediately responded, raising their cups in unison. Those seated on Prince Fu's side had no choice but to follow suit.

Prince Fu stood frozen for a long while before slowly sitting down, his expression extremely awkward.

Everyone could see that the Empress Dowager's open expression of dislike for Prince Fu meant he was in danger

.

Prince Fu was being sidelined; those who supported Prince Jing exchanged knowing smiles, while

those who supported Prince Fu were filled with gloom. Next came the presentation of birthday gifts to the Empress Dowager by the officials. The value of these gifts

to the Empress Dowager was self-evident; civil and military officials vied to present precious items, such as auspicious white jade scepters with a thousand spirits, jade cups with double dragon handles, ancient sea coral, longevity scrolls, luminous pearls, jade bracelets, statues of deities, gold and jade, agate, crystal, enamel, bronze vessels, calligraphy and paintings, brocade and embroidery, porcelain, coins and silk, flowers and fruits, and foreign treasures. Gifts worthy of being presented at the Golden Eagle Tower were naturally precious; no one offered gold or silver coins—giving gold and silver to the Empress Dowager of the Empire would be too vulgar. The birthday wishes were also diverse and abundant, including phrases like "May your happiness be as vast as the Eastern Sea," "May your longevity be as long as the Southern Mountain," "May you have good fortune and everything go as you wish," "May you be wealthy and healthy," "May your life be as long as the heavens," " May your happiness be as deep as the sea," "May you shine as brightly as the sun and moon," and "May you never grow old," a series of praises and eulogies. 　　After officials of all ranks presented their gifts, Prince Fu and Prince Jing also offered their birthday presents. The four great families followed suit: the Lu family presented a jade unicorn, the Xiao family an antique bronze artifact, and the Cao family a pair of eight-treasure jade bracelets . The gifts from the three great families were all priceless treasures. When it was the Wu family's turn to present their gift, everyone present eagerly awaited to see what it was. 　　Wu Wudi had not personally attended the Empress Dowager's birthday celebration; Wu Tianhu represented the Wu family. Wu Tianhu expressionlessly presented a brocade basin to the gift-giver. The box was small but exquisitely beautiful , suggesting that the gift inside must be of great value. People secretly speculated that the gifts from the Lu, Xiao, and Cao families were all extremely valuable; the Wu family, as the head of the four great families, must be inferior to them. What could possibly be inside the brocade box? 　　A eunuch stepped forward and took the brocade box from Wu Tianhu's hand. He opened it and handed a gift list to the official in charge of birthday gifts. After reading the list, the official's expression changed slightly. He hesitated for a moment, but still read aloud: "The Grand General, Prince Wu of Jinyang, wishes the Empress Dowager a long and healthy life, and presents a roll of longevity noodles!" 　　Silence fell upon this statement—utter silence, an eerie stillness. The official's words silenced the entire Golden Eagle Tower like a deathly stillness. Everyone stared wide-eyed, exchanging bewildered glances, their eyes practically bulging out of their sockets. They couldn't believe it, wondering if they had misheard. 　　Longevity noodles? The Wu family, the head of the four great families of the capital, Prince Wu Wudi of Jinyang, was actually sending longevity noodles to the Empress Dowager! This… was simply outrageous! Could the Wu family be so poor that they could only offer longevity noodles? Even commoners wouldn't give such a gift! It was a wonder Wu Wudi could be so generous, without any fear of losing face! 　　In an instant, all eyes in the Golden Eagle Tower turned to Wu Tianhu and the Empress Dowager , eager to hear Wu Tianhu's explanation and the Empress Dowager's reaction. 　　Wu Tianhu first bowed to the Empress Dowager, then said loudly, "Your Majesty, my father said that a gift is light but its value is great. Your Majesty is the mother of the nation, of supreme nobility, and does not lack any precious birthday gifts. Even the most precious birthday gifts are nothing but mundane things to Your Majesty, things you can look at but not eat. Only longevity noodles are truly practical, something you can eat and that will fill your stomach and grant you a thousand years of longevity!" 　　Hearing this, many officials scoffed, thinking, "What food from the Imperial Kitchen is useless? Why would the Empress Dowager care about your Wu family's longevity noodles? Your Wu family's longevity noodles aren't some kind of elixir of immortality, granting a thousand years of longevity? Bah!" 　　Many officials secretly despised him, but none dared to show it. What gift the Wu family gave was their business, even if...

Wu Wudi sent a pile of excrement, and as long as the Empress Dowager didn't express her opinion, no one dared to object! Unless they were tired of living.

The Empress Dowager showed no displeasure whatsoever; instead, she smiled, nodded slightly, and said with dignified grace:

"Your Highness Wu's words are pleasing to the ear, and I like to hear them. Your Highness Wu is absolutely right. As the Empress Dowager of the Empire, I

lack nothing. Even the most precious gifts are nothing but material possessions to me. There are plenty of rare treasures in the palace,

but how many of them are actually useful to me? No matter how many precious birthday gifts I receive, they can't fill my stomach. A roll of longevity

noodles is much more practical. I will accept these longevity noodles. Delu, send the longevity noodles to the Imperial Kitchen. I want to eat these longevity noodles!"

"Yes!"

The attending eunuch responded and immediately ordered the longevity noodles to be sent to the Imperial Kitchen.

Seeing that the Wu family had only presented the Empress Dowager with a roll of longevity noodles as a perfunctory birthday gift, and that the Empress Dowager was not

angry , the officials below were in an uproar, whispering and murmuring among themselves.

Wu Tianjiao, observing this, sneered inwardly, thinking, "In the entire imperial court, only Wu Wudi dared to send

the Empress Dowager longevity noodles. Which other official would dare to do such a thing? The Empress Dowager had no choice but

to accept Wu Wudi's birthday gift, and she dared not be angry. Even if she were angry, she would have to force a smile. Just think, Wu Wudi's martial arts are unparalleled, and

he holds military power. Who would dare to be angry with him? Even if the Empress Dowager was dissatisfied, she could not show it in public! Wu Wudi, you are indeed

invincible!"

After the birthday gift was presented, a series of song and dance performances followed. Everyone clapped and cheered,

quickly pushing the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax.

The people along the Imperial River downstairs also pointed and whispered excitedly.

As soon as the dance ended, an official stepped forward and announced, "Next, please welcome Lady Ji Bingyan to

perform !"

At this, the entire building fell silent, followed by a thunderous roar.

A man by the Imperial River called out, "Ji Bingyan..." Like a catalyst, the chants of "

Ji Bingyan ... Ji Bingyan..." filled the air, eventually reaching tens of thousands who joined in

, raising their arms in unison. The cry of "Ji Bingyan" echoed through the night!

The cheers from the Imperial River infected everyone inside the Golden Eagle Tower; men and women alike flushed red with

excitement. Many even cheered in response to the shouts from the Imperial River.

Wu Tianjiao was unimpressed. He had been in the capital for some time and had heard of Ji Bingyan before

, even seen her in person—that night at Liuxiang Pavilion when he interrupted her dance. Seeing the crowd's enthusiastic welcome,

he frowned slightly, thinking, "This Ji Bingyan is just a prostitute at Liuxiang Pavilion, why is she so popular?"

Despite this, recalling the alluring woman he had seen that night, he couldn't help but feel a stirring in his heart, filled with anticipation.

Suddenly, a rapid, torrential sound of a pipa filled the inner chamber, as urgent as

raindrops pelting pear blossoms. Instantly, it gripped everyone's hearts, making them

feel breathless.

The shouts around them ceased abruptly.

Just as Wu Tianjiao's heart stirred, the pipa music abruptly slowed, followed by the harmonious sounds of bells and zithers, like spring

blossoms , a warmth flowing through his body, making him feel refreshed and comfortable, as if bathed in a gentle breeze.

Then, a group of beautiful singers and dancers emerged from the inner building, dancing as they went. Each carried a pipa, their singing and dancing

captivating the

audience. Suddenly, a heavenly voice rang out from among the women, and then the dancers dispersed,

revealing a graceful and stunningly beautiful woman—

Ji Bingyan!

The Golden Eagle Tower fell silent. Everyone was completely absorbed, their minds

filled with Ji Bingyan's mesmerizing eyes, her enchanting dance, and her beautiful voice!

Before everyone's eyes, Ji Bingyan stood there, her face still bare, yet

her captivating charm remained undiminished. Her eyes, like mist and smoke, were like two clear, deep pools, or two flowing pearls,

containing boundless allure and charm.

Every glance and gesture stole the souls of every man present.

Her singing voice was delicate and sweet, so gentle and alluring that it made everyone feel weak all over.

Coupled with her flawless figure and expressions, she captivated everyone, drawing them into a dreamlike and mysterious

world.

Everyone was utterly mesmerized by Ji Bingyan's intoxicating charm. Whether it was the officials on the Golden Eagle Tower

or the tens of thousands of people along the Imperial River, everyone held their breath, afraid to make a sound, lest they disturb

Ji . Even the sickly, motionless, and perfectly quiet Emperor Xuanhe couldn't help but stir, his eyes gleaming,

his spirits lifted considerably.

The singing was tender and poignant, like a whisper, or a stream flowing through a valley. The

pipa music was melodious and low, the bass strings resonating, the treble strings delicate and soft. And since it was the dead of night and no one was around, what else could it be but a private conversation

?

Unconsciously, Wu Tianjiao became completely absorbed, listening intently, until after a while, he suddenly snapped out of it

. Since reaching the tenth level of the Heavenly Cauldron Divine Skill, Wu Tianjiao's self-control had grown stronger day by day.

Another important reason for his awakening was that he too was well-versed in the art. At the Yanyun Pavilion in Changxing Town,

disguised as Yue Nujiao, he had performed on stage quite often. However, compared to this Lady Ji, he felt far inferior and pondered

the opportunity to learn from her, to seek her guidance. Of course, if he could learn from her in bed, that would

be even better!

A thunderous applause and shouts jolted Wu Tianjiao from his reverie. Ji Bingyan's song had ended.

However, the crowd remained incredibly enthusiastic, with shouts of "Lady Ji, one more song!" echoing everywhere

.

The Second Prince, Jing Wang, stood up and raised his hands to signal for quiet, and the crowd gradually calmed down.

Seeing Wu Tianjiao staring intently at Ji Bingyan, Yu Yilong seized the opportunity to lean closer and whisper,

"It's said that Lady Ji is the most outstanding female entertainer in the capital. Wherever she performs, she only sings one song per performance,

even for His Majesty and the Empress Dowager."

Wu Tianjiao inwardly clicked his tongue, thinking, "What a grand air! She's just a female entertainer, what's

so great about her? Tomorrow I'll make you sing for me every day, ten or eight songs a day, until I'm sick of

it !"

The Empress Dowager, on her high seat, nodded repeatedly, clearly admiring Ji Bingyan greatly. Emperor Xuanhe was in high spirits.

He glanced approvingly at the Second Prince, then exclaimed to the graceful Ji Bingyan, "This music should only exist in heaven;

how often can one hear it in the mortal world? As the ancients said, 'Hearing this music for three months makes one forget the taste of meat,' nothing surpasses this."

Ji Bingyan's eyes sparkled, and she smiled sweetly, a smile that captivated many of the officials present. They lowered their heads

, revealing their slender, swan-like necks, and softly said, "Your Majesty is too kind; this humble woman is unworthy of such praise!"

Her voice was delicate and captivating, with a mesmerizing magnetic quality that was incredibly sexy and alluring.

A hint of intoxication flashed in Emperor Xuanhe's eyes as he weakly said, "No need for such modesty, Lady Ji. These

are my sincere words. Hearing your music has greatly lifted my spirits!"

The Empress Dowager was also greatly impressed and smiled, "I've heard that the piece you just played was a new creation

by you Is that true?"

Ji Bingyan softly replied, "Your Majesty is wise. This piece is indeed a new creation of mine, named 'Moon Maiden.'

However, it is the result of the collective wisdom and efforts of many people, not just my own work."

Wu Tianjiao nodded secretly, thinking, "This Ji Bingyan is truly upright and straightforward.

She is straightforward, worthy of a great lady's demeanor!"

Wu Tianjiao had studied folk arts and dance with the Sixth Madam of the Dong family, so he knew that creating a new genre

was generally impossible for one person alone. It required absorbing the essence of predecessors and pooling collective wisdom.

Upon hearing Ji Bingyan's words, the officials below began to murmur amongst themselves, all expressing their admiration.

Clearly, they understood the reasoning behind Wu Tianjiao's earlier thoughts.

The Empress Dowager nodded repeatedly with a smile, showing great appreciation for Ji Bingyan's answer, and said with delight, "Miss Ji's

gratitude for others' kindness without seeking credit is truly admirable. Please, Miss Ji, take your seat."

Prince Jing immediately stood up with a smile and personally led Ji Bingyan to an empty seat next to him.

Ji Bingyan could not refuse, and gracefully curtsied, saying softly, "Thank you, Second Prince." Then, she

sat down with captivating charm.

Prince Jing waited until Ji Bingyan was seated before sitting down himself, displaying remarkable poise.

All the women present had their eyes sparkling.

All the men present turned their gazes towards Prince Jing, filled with envy and jealousy, but no

one dared to say anything.

Wu Tianjiao sighed inwardly, thinking, "What a pity, she's not sitting next to me!"

He couldn't help but glance at Ji Bingyan, only to meet her gaze, which was sweeping across the entire building

. Upon seeing "Yuen Slave Beauty," Ji Bingyan was initially surprised, then her bright eyes lit up, and

a captivating smile appeared on her lips. She nodded to "Yuen Slave Beauty," clearly

recognizing her after hearing about her. Ji Bingyan's gaze naturally didn't escape the notice of those around her. In an instant, Wu Tianjiao

felt tens of thousands of eyes fall upon him. These gazes

held a range of emotions: hatred, amazement, infatuation, greed, and more.

Wu Tianjiao cursed inwardly, "A bunch of sons of bitches!"

but remained composed, enjoying the fine wine and food on the table before him.

Ji Bingyan's smile widened slightly, her alluring eyes lingering on Wu Tianjiao for a moment before she

looked away.

As a result, Wu Tianjiao felt the "lustful light" cast upon him even more intensely.

Princess Jingguo, who was in front of him, turned around and said with a hint of surprise, "Nujiao! Do you know Ji Bingyan?"

Wu Tianjiao shook his head and said, "This is the first time I've seen her today, how could I know her!"

He thought to himself, "I am Yue Nujiao now, of course I don't know her!"

Madam Fan also turned around, looked at Wu Tianjiao and smiled, teasingly saying, "Our Miss Nujiao

is as beautiful as a fairy, no less than that Ji Bingyan. Nujiao has become famous in the capital these past few days, Ji Bingyan must have heard of her,

and may want to get to know her!"

At the same time, Wu Tianjiao noticed that the Empress Dowager, Emperor Xuanhe, Consort Cao, and Consort Lu were also looking at him, as if they had taken notice

of him. Obviously, they knew about the Jiangshan Tower incident and what happened in the Imperial Square.

Meanwhile, Prince Jing glanced at Wu Tianjiao, then at Princess Jingguo, a fleeting, almost

imperceptible . His face remained impassive, his smile unchanged, and he began

to speak with Ji Bingyan.

Ji Bingyan responded politely, occasionally chuckling softly. Her captivating charm, so innate, made

every man present lose their senses. Ji Bingyan was the most famous courtesan in the capital, the star attraction of Liuxiang Pavilion. Countless

men longed to be her client, to have her touch, but to no avail. Even the dying Emperor Xuanhe was captivated

by her allure, his soul swaying—truly a lecherous old man.

Just then, Yuan Ji, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards, hurriedly arrived at Jinying Tower, approached Prince Jing, and

whispered a few words in his ear. Prince Jing nodded, stood up, bowed to the Empress Dowager and Emperor Xuanhe, and said, "Grandmother

! Father, the Crown Prince of the Shura Empire, Shura Qinglong, has led his people to offer gifts and birthday wishes to the Empress Dowager!"
