“You said that they injured the divine dragon and stole dragon meat just to roast it?” Xiao Jingyun repeated coldly.
“That’s what Shao Zun and Prince Zi said. The Three Golden Flowers in Qinghua Palace confirmed that Princess Zi and Miss Lian’er did roast meat in the garden yesterday afternoon, and a chunk of the dragon meat is indeed missing…”
Xiao Jingyun: I don’t know if I should curse or not.
No, he was the emperor. He had the dignity and self-restraint of an emperor. He couldn’t curse.
“My imperial palace… is a mess.” Xiao Jingyun said what everyone was thinking.
“Shao Zun and Prince Zi both said that they would compensate our country with a better divine dragon.”
Xiao Jingyun chuckled. “Is this a blessing in disguise?”
Because the two women wanted dragon meat, their divine dragon, which was a national treasure, had to be changed.
The ministers all knelt. “Congratulations, Your Majesty. The heavens have blessed our country.”
Xiao Jingyun rubbed his forehead. He really wanted to curse.
“It’s been hard on you, captain. You must’ve suffered a lot. You should go and rest…”
It was easy to imagine how difficult it would be to search such illustrious figures.
No wonder the captain of the imperial guards looked like he had aged so much in such a short period of time.
“Your Majesty, I… I have something else important to report…”
Xiao Jingyun’s eyes turned cold. “Speak.”
“Last night, I searched the palaces, and discovered…”
“What did you discover? Just tell me. Why are you hesitating?”
The captain knelt. “Many beauties who shouldn’t be there were found in the nobles’ palaces.”
Xiao Jingyun’s eyes were cold. “Which beauties?”
“I’ve already rounded them up. This is the list.”
The captain gave him the list. After one glance, Xiao Jingyun passed out.
“Your Majesty!” the officials shouted anxiously.
The list fell to the floor, and some officials snuck quick looks at it.
F*ck. There were dozens of names.
Did they all… cheat on His Majesty?
No wonder His Majesty fainted.
When Xiao Jingyun woke up again, it was a bloody storm in the imperial palace. The captured beauties and the guests were all imprisoned in the dungeon and whipped every day.
The officials of Rising Clouds Empire were furious, and so were the other concubines.
But the beauties felt wronged, too. They were lonely; three thousand women shared one man in the palace, and they usually didn’t even see the emperor.
So many strong and vigorous men had come during this time. They were all handsome and charming; as long as they weren’t too old, they could make the beauties enjoy themselves. How could they not be moved?
All of this had been hidden, but the emperor had been so angry about the divine dragon that he had searched all the palaces overnight.
They didn’t even have a chance to escape.
The net was broken.
The noble families were only here to have fun. Who would have thought that they would die in Rising Clouds?
Immediately, people went to the Rising Clouds Emperor to beg for mercy.
The emperor was nowhere to be found.
Oh, it wasn’t that he couldn’t be found, but that there was no way to see him. He was so angry that he fell sick.
Sitting in the garden, Gu Bailu looked at the blooming flowers and said with a smile, “Ah Luo, tell your lady what color the tea is today.”
