"Brother Ling, aren't you the Embroidered Uniform Guard's Little Flag? Why did he suddenly become the Thousand Households Lord?”
"Brother Ling, why do you have so many thousand households under you?”
"Brother Ling, are you a big shot now?”
Zhang Yan wasn't scared by the Four Prodigies of Green City, but was instead scared by the Embroidered Uniform Guards. Along the way, she didn't leave Ling Chen's side at all, her pure and bright eyes staring straight at him.
Ling Chen smiled, and could only briefly explain what had happened to him during this period of time.
Zhang Yan was dazzled.
Zhang Bailu was also dumbstruck, looking at Ling Chen in disbelief. She simply couldn't imagine that in such a short time, a mere small flag had become the true ruler of the Ming Dynasty's Embroidered Uniform Guards!
He suddenly felt that it was extremely ridiculous.
Yu Renyan and the Four Prodigies of Green City, were they really not here to die?
Arriving at the Northern Town's Provincial Office, Ling Chen had just instructed Jiang Yuyan to arrange a place for Zhang Yan and her daughter to stay when he received a report from a black-robed Blade Guard.
Lu Wenzhao requested an audience!
"It seems that the Qingcheng Sect doesn't want to be left out. We already have an answer as to which big shot they've hooked up with.”
A faint smile appeared on Ling Chen's face, and his eyes sparkled. His right thumb lightly moved, gently stroking the hilt of the Embroidered Spring Sword in his hand.
What surprised him was that Lu Wenzhao was here to invite him to a brothel.
That's right, the dignified Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guards had invited their superior to visit a brothel at night.
Ling Chen laughed.
When he was led by Lu Wenzhao to the famous Warm Fragrance Pavilion in the capital, he realized that he had never experienced the nightlife of the bustling capital of the Ming Dynasty since he transmigrated…
Therefore, he simply put away his thoughts and went to the private room on the second floor with a playful attitude.
Of course, there was someone in the room.
This was a thin and weak young man dressed in luxurious clothes. He looked around with a noble aura, and between his brows, there was a kind of dignity formed from being in a high position for many years.
He sat quietly, leisurely tasting the fine wine of the Warm Fragrance Pavilion. Behind him, a woman with a knife by her side stood quietly.
In truth, the first thing Ling Chen saw after entering the room was this woman!
Or rather, it was the saber in her hand!
This is a very long sword, similar to a Japanese katana, but obviously modified. Because the sword is in the sheath, Ling Chen can't see the blade, only the black handle, extending out a white tassel, like cherry blossoms.
Cherry blossoms were beautiful.
However, Ling Chen believed that the moment the blade was unsheathed, it would be even more beautiful!
"Falling Shadow Saber, White Tassels!"
As the name of the blade appeared in his mind, Ling Chen's gaze then started to size up the woman holding the blade.
This woman was dressed in white and was tall. Her eyes were cold, and she wasn't particularly beautiful. She gave off a cold and arrogant aura, and from the moment Ling Chen stepped into the room, her gaze was locked onto Ling Chen.
His right hand gripped the hilt of the saber bit by bit, and his entire body was like a powerful crossbow that was ready to be fired.
It was as if Ling Chen made the slightest movement, the blade in her hand would immediately slash out!
Ling Chen could clearly feel her aura locking onto him, but he didn't care at all, and instead revealed a look of admiration…this was a pure sword artist, and her sword dao cultivation and realm were far higher than Pei Lun, Lu Jianxing, and the others!
Ling Chen was never stingy with his tolerance towards machetemen.
"Milord, this is His Highness Prince Xin!"
Lu Wenzhao walked behind the man in luxurious clothes, respectfully standing there as he gestured to Ling Chen.
There seemed to be a complicated look in his eyes.
The man in luxurious clothes did not notice this look, but Ding Baiying did. A strange look appeared in her cold eyes. She could vaguely feel that there was a hint of pleading in this look.
Beg Ling Chen?
How was this possible?
While Ding Baiying was still in shock, Prince Xin had already looked at Ling Chen and very naturally raised his right hand."Lord Ling, this is the first time we've met. I haven't congratulated you for taking control of the Embroidered Uniform Guards overnight and becoming a legendary figure that has never been seen since the founding of the Ming Dynasty!”
"Your Highness Prince Xin is too polite."
Ling Chen casually sat down, looking at Prince Xin with interest.
This world had merged many martial arts worlds, so there were many kings in the Ming Dynasty. Other than Prince Xin, there were also Prince Qing, Prince Ning, Prince Pingnan, Prince Taiping, and others. Some were the Emperor's brothers, while others were his uncles.
And the current emperor had no children!
As such, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were naturally interested in the supreme dragon throne.
Ling Chen had already thought of this when he looked through the Imperial Secret Service's records and found the names of the two princes…the master of the prince of Pingnan was famous throughout the world, and his name was Ye Gucheng!
"Pa! Pa!"
As his thoughts spun, Prince Xin, who was opposite him, had already put his palms together and lightly clapped twice.
The next moment, the screen on one side of the room was suddenly pulled open. There was no wall on the other side of the screen. Instantly, the situation in the Warm Fragrance Pavilion was clearly transmitted to everyone's eyes.
The sound of a crowd could be heard. In the hall, figures seemed to be looking forward to something.
"Clang!"
Suddenly, the elegant sound of the zither was heard, and the entire place fell into silence. Only the sound of the zither lingered in everyone's ears like the sound of nature.
On the third floor of the Warm Fragrance Pavilion, a white veil was suddenly lifted, revealing a graceful figure playing the zither.
In an instant, Ling Chen seemed to hear gasps coming from outside.
"This woman is called Miao Tong, the new top star of the Warm Fragrance Pavilion. She comes from an aristocratic family of officials and has been proficient in the four arts since she was young. After her family fell, she ended up in the Education Bureau. The Education Bureau has painstakingly nurtured her for many years and only sent her to the Warm Fragrance Pavilion today to officially be recruited!”
Prince Xin casually glanced at Ling Chen and smiled,"If Lord Ling is interested, I will bid for her and warm your bed in the future. Wouldn't that be wonderful?”
As he spoke, he didn't wait for Ling Chen's reply and said a shocking price to the brothel madame who was explaining the bidding rules.
"Ten thousand taels!"
The Warm Fragrance Pavilion was instantly silent.
Everyone was stunned. They subconsciously looked up at the second floor, but they could only vaguely see a few figures.
"Ten thousand…Ten thousand taels?"
The brothel madame's face was blooming with laughter. She stood on the third floor of the pavilion and naturally could see Prince Xin who was full of nobility. She immediately laughed and said,"This esteemed guest bids 10,000 taels…"
Before he could finish speaking, the screen of a private room on the second floor opposite him suddenly opened and a few figures appeared.
One of them looked at Prince Xin, and his gaze fell on Ling Chen, smiling,"So it's Prince Xin, Your Highness. I've long heard that Prince Xin doesn't like women, but you bid today. Could it be that you want to please the Embroidered Uniform Guards 'new Lord Ling?”
As he spoke, he suddenly cupped his hands towards Ling Chen, very polite.
"Since that's the case, this king bids twenty thousand taels for this woman and gives her to Lord Ling!”
The moment he said that, everyone was shocked!
