Chapter 332: The Number One Beauty

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the Qingfeng Courtyard, Yu Wan and Bai Tang chatted about their daily lives. “Why didn’t you come over for so long?”

Zi Su washed a plate of fresh cherries and plums.

Bai Tang picked up a beautiful cherry and said, “You’re so busy. How can I disturb you?”

Yu Wan laughed. “No matter how busy I am, I still have time for you.” As she spoke, she looked at Zi Su. “Do we still have peaches?”

“Yes, we’re cutting it,” Zi Su said respectfully.

Yu Wan nodded. When she turned around, she saw Bai Tang looking at her meaningfully. She asked, “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”

Bai Tang chuckled. “You’re becoming more and more like a Princess Consort.”

This was not a compliment. At first, when she found out that Yu Wan was going to marry Yan Jiuchao, she was fiercely worried for Yu Wan and was worried that she would not be able to hold on to her position. It was not because Yu Wan was not worthy of Yan Jiuchao. On the contrary, it was simply the blessing of eight lifetimes for that little lunatic Yan Jiuchao to be able to marry such a smart and capable woman like Yu Wan, okay? How many people in the world could stand his bad temper? Those women who wanted to marry him were only coveting his beauty and status. If he lost his face and his inheritance rights to the Yan Manor, which woman would be willing to marry him?

“Why did you marry Yan Jiuchao?” Bai Tang’s thoughts went astray and she asked the question in her heart.

Yu Wan said without thinking, “His face!”

It was so beautiful!

Bai Tang : “…”

Zi Su brought over the cut peach. The fruits in the Young Master Manor were indeed better than the ones on the market. The peach’s taste was extremely strong, soft, and juicy. It would be a little numbing if one ate too much, but if there was no such astringent taste, it would not be as peachy.

Bai Tang ate two in one go. Yu Wan was worried that she would have sour teeth, so she handed her a soft and fragrant small pancake.

“I can’t eat anymore.” Bai Tang waved her hand.

Bai Tang did not come to look for Yu Wan because she was bored. She did not have many friends in the Capital and thought that Yu Wan was the same as her, so she came early in the morning to relieve Yu Wan’s boredom. Unexpectedly, not long after she sat down, a servant came to report that the Xiao Manor had sent a thank you gift.

Yu Wan asked Fu Ling to bring the thank you gift in.

A few bolts of precious satin and jewelry were given by Eldest Mrs. Xiao. An exquisite purse and silk handkerchief were personally embroidered by Xiao Ziyue. The Xiao family was thanking her for saving Xiao Ziyue at the wedding banquet. Since Eldest Mrs. Xiao had already given her a generous gift, there was no need for Xiao Ziyue to thank her.

This embroidery was not worth much. Xiao Ziyue had given her a token of appreciation.

“It seems that our Princess Consort Yan has already made friends in the Capital,” Bai Tang said sourly.

Yu Wan said, “That can’t compare to you. Other than being my friend, you’re also my future sister-in-law.”

Bai Tang snorted. “But she’s also your sister-in-law!”

Yu Wan raised her eyebrows. “In that case, you admit that you’re my sister-in-law?”

“Aiya, you…” Only then did Bai Tang realize that she had fallen into Yu Wan’s trap. She glared at Yu Wan angrily and put down her purse.

The little girl was so cute when she was angry. Yu Wan smiled and said, “My brother should be coming to propose marriage soon.” Wasn’t he poor in the past? But now, they had a mine and her father was a marquis, Yu Feng was the marquis’s nephew. No matter what, Old Master Bai wouldn’t despise him.

“Who wants him to propose marriage?” Bai Tang rolled her eyes and blushed.

Yu Wan thought to herself, It seems that I have to tell Big Brother to hurry in proposing marriage.

“By the way.” Bai Tang looked at the thank you gift from the Xiao family and thought of something. She asked Yu Wan, “Are the rumors outside true?”

“What rumors?” Yu Wan asked.

Bai Tang looked at the maidservants in the room and cleared her throat.

Yu Wan instructed, “You guys can leave.”

“Yes.” Tao’er and Li’er tactfully left the room.

Yu Wan pointed at the thank you gifts on the table and said, “Fu Ling, take these things down.”

Fu Ling carried the thank you gift and left. Only Yu Wan and Han Wen were left in the room. Bai Tang said in relief, “The news of Grand Marshal Xiao selling the armor to the people of Nanzhao has spread throughout the Capital. I heard it from someone in the carriage on the way here.”

“What did they say?” Yu Wan asked.

Bai Tang said, “They said that Grand Marshal Xiao refused to sell the armor to Duke Wei, but sold it to the people of Nanzhao. It’s equivalent to selling his country for glory.”

What kind of nonsense is this? Why was he even involved in selling his country for glory? The most unlikely person in the Great Zhou to sell his country for glory was Xiao Zhenting, right? Could those people use their brains first when spreading rumors?

Yu Wan shook her head. “Nonsense. Grand Marshal Xiao didn’t sell the armor to the people of Nanzhao. He sold it to a rich merchant from the Great Zhou. The people of Nanzhao bought the armor from a rich merchant.”

“So he really sold it? Why did he sell it? Is he short of money?” Bai Tang was naturally being sarcastic, but she did not know that she had accidentally told the truth.

Xiao Zhenting lacked money, the money to save Yan Jiuchao’s life. He could have asked Yan Jiuchao for it, but he did not do so.

He would rather sell his most beloved armor. He wanted to keep this secret for the rest of his life, but Helian Qi accidentally exposed him.

Yu Wan could not tell Bai Tang the inside story.

Just as Yu Wan was thinking about how to smooth things over, Bai Tang curled her lips and said, “Forget it, your relationship with the Xiao family isn’t good. You definitely don’t know what happened to the Xiao family. Sigh, it’s a pity that Grand Marshal Xiao, who is so loyal to the country, was scolded by those peddlers…”

Yu Wan asked Bai Tang to stay for lunch. After that, she got someone to pick a few large baskets of fruits for her. Bai Tang did not want anything else and only accepted the peach.

On the other side, Yan Jiuchao’s carriage stopped in front of the largest brothel in the Capital.

In the past, Yan Jiuchao would never come to such a place. He would not even bother to pass by. However, today, he had no choice but to visit.

“Young Master, why don’t you let me go with Shadow Six?” Shadow Thirteen said from outside the carriage.

Shadow Six quickly echoed, “That’s right, Young Master. Shadow Thirteen and I can handle such matters. Wait for our news in the carriage.”

“There’s no need,” Yan Jiuchao said indifferently as he bowed and stood up.

Shadow Thirteen lifted the curtain.

As it was daytime, there were not many customers in the brothel. The girls on the second floor were bored as they held onto the railing and glanced arrogantly at the passers-by. Suddenly, they saw a four-horse carriage parked at the door. This was the standard of the carriage of the royal family. The girls immediately perked up.

Immediately after, they saw a handsome man get off the carriage. This man was really good-looking. His facial features were like jade, and he was valiant and heroic. The girls’ hearts were instantly tempted, but soon, another even more handsome man walked down. He was even taller than the previous one and exuded a cold aura.

Which young master was he? He was really so handsome that one could not take their eyes off him.

The girls’ hearts surged, but this cold and handsome man bowed and opened the curtain.

Could there be someone else inside?

Yan Jiuchao alighted from the carriage.

With just a glance, the girls were collectively petrified. This was probably not a human, but an immortal!

When Yan Jiuchao entered the hall, the originally noisy brothel instantly became silent. It was clearly a place of romance, but because of this man’s arrival, it felt a little otherworldly and noble.

The madam stuttered because of his handsomeness. She was dizzy from his handsomeness and stammered, “YoungYoungYoungYoungYoungYoung…”

“And I’m OldOldOldOldOldOld!” Shadow Six glared at her angrily. “Get lost! Don’t block my Young Master’s path!”

The madam was ruthlessly lifted. “… Master!”

She finally finished speaking, but she was gone.

Yan Jiuchao went upstairs and came to a door that was ajar.

Shadow Thirteen understood and pushed open the door.

In the room that was emitting a strong fragrance of wine, Helian Qi was lying on a beauty’s lap drunk. He was carefully served by a few brothel women dressed ambiguously. One of them was holding a wine glass, the other was holding a cherry. There were even people massaging his shoulders and back. He was enjoying himself.

When they heard the commotion, the beauties who were serving him looked up at Yan Jiuchao in unison, only to be stunned.

Helian Qi narrowed his eyes meaningfully. “Yo, isn’t this Young Master Yan of the Great Zhou? I heard that you haven’t been married for long, so why are you in the mood to visit the brothel? Could it be that your little wife doesn’t know how to serve others?”

These words were really offensive. A trace of disgust flashed across Shadow Thirteen and Shadow Six’s eyes.

Yan Jiuchao looked at him expressionlessly.

Helian Qi looked enlightened. “Ah, Young Master Yan is here for me? Alright, you guys can leave first. I’ll dote on you later!”

With that, he stroked the girls’ bodies, making them laugh coquettishly.

The girls walked towards the door gorgeously. When they brushed past Yan Jiuchao, they revealed their most beautiful posture, hoping to attract the attention of this beautiful husband. Unexpectedly, Yan Jiuchao didn’t even lift his eyelids.

The girls left in disappointment.

Helian Qi sat up and said, “I guess you’re here for your stepfather’s armor?”

“Name a price,” Yan Jiuchao said.

“Pfft ~” Helian Qi laughed disdainfully. “Kid, do you know who you’re talking to? The Helian family is richer than your entire Yan City. I’m afraid you can’t afford my price.”

Yan Jiuchao said indifferently, “I’ll say it one last time. Name a price.”

Helian Qi touched the corner of his lips in amusement and smiled playfully for a while. Suddenly, he thought of something and a trace of evil flashed across his eyes.

He walked up to Yan Jiuchao and smiled arrogantly. “I don’t want the gold and silver. I heard that Mrs. Xiao is the number one beauty of the Great Zhou. Why don’t you let her accompany me for a night and I’ll give you the armor!”
