Not long after.
Everyone found that the scene was strangely silent.
No one bid anymore.
Originally, 20,000 gold taels was already the limit.
At this moment, even the wealthiest merchants had to reevaluate their net worth.
Not to mention that it had suddenly soared to thirty thousand gold taels.
This caused many women in extraordinary clothes to look at each other with their mouths agape.
"It's a pity that it's a juicy cabbage.”
"Even though I'm old and vigorous…this is too shameless!”
"You're already half dead, yet you still don't know how to restrain yourself when you look for a man.”
"That's right, this old woman has already entered her twilight years, how would she know what the pleasure of a boudoir is?”
……
In a corner.
Wu Zetian's voice was low.
"Sorry to trouble you, old granny."
The old woman slowly shook her head, her heart as still as water.
"I have lived in the palace for a long time and do not care about my reputation. It is my duty to help Your Majesty solve problems.”
Lai Junchen's eyes were complicated, and his mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts.
Although she didn't know why His Majesty would bid for the Courtesan Belle, she didn't ask.
Since the Martial Emperor did not take the initiative to mention it.
Moreover, this was not a national matter. If an official were to ask, it would be crossing the line.
This should be a good thing.
Because His Majesty was not close to men.
Lai Junchen thought.
……
Tonight was not destined to be peaceful.
Many women in Chang 'an had insomnia.
It was said that a talented woman matched a good man.
Since ancient times, there had been many good stories.
However, reality gave all the talented women a hard slap in the face.
They couldn't bear to imagine what would happen tonight. They ran home one after another, hid under the blankets, and cried.
There were also some talented women who were drunk and wrote poems with tears in their eyes to express their sadness of losing their courtesan.
After the auction ended, there were still many women who stayed behind.
Although she couldn't sleep with Jiang Huakui, she could still find a handsome male prostitute.
" I heard that there was a woman who went to 'Dream of the Red Chamber'. She called ten male prostitutes at once. I didn't expect…"
"Wait, ten at once. Can you take it?”
"What do you mean can't take it? You don't know, but it's said that the woman called ten men and made them wear only a white veil, sitting in the house picking grapes to eat.”
"There's actually such a thing? A beautiful man is calm and collected. I'm impressed!"
"What's there to admire? It's because she's an old woman!”
"Haha! I see!"
The old woman was unmoved by the mockery.
After she paid, she received a bronze key.
"Your Majesty!"
After the old woman handed the key to Wu Zetian, she regained her expressionless face.
……
Prince Regent's Residence.
When the old butler saw Wu Yue return with a dark expression, he could not help but mourn for her.
Although his master held great power and was in charge of the distribution of the country's military pay, in terms of family background…
How could it compare to those merchants who spent thousands of dollars?
The old butler handed him a cup of tea.
Wu Yue had just taken a sip when she smashed the teacup and stood up from her chair.
The old butler lowered his head and stared at the floor, not daring to say anything.
"Wu Mei Niang! As the ruler of a country, why don't you take care of your country? What right do you have to come over and snatch my man!”
Hearing this, the old butler shivered and his breathing stopped.
Even when he had failed in the competition for the throne a few years ago, the old butler had never seen Wu Yue lose her composure like this.
Wu Mei Niang.
It was the Martial Emperor's nickname when he was young.
Now, other than her birth mother, Empress Lu, no one dared to use these three words to address the Martial Emperor.
"Your Highness, hasn't Martial Emperor always been chaste? Why would I snatch your man?"
"Because she's sick!"
Wu Yue could not help but shout.
"Your highness, remember that trouble comes from your mouth. The Martial Emperor is your cousin, but she is still the ruler of a country. If word gets out that you insulted her, I'm afraid she will punish you according to the law to protect the dignity of the emperor.”
After a moment of silence.
Wu Yue's gaze was calm, and she regained her dignity.
"I understand."
Wu Yue nodded.
Seeing that Wu Yue was no longer angry.
The old butler finally heaved a sigh of relief and slowly left the room.
She didn't know that the brick under Wu Yue's feet had already been turned into powder.
……
Cloud Mist Pavilion.
Several women came to the door of a private room.
"Esteemed guest, Young Master Jiang is waiting in the room. You just need to gently open the door and Young Master Jiang will take the initiative to serve you.”
Feng Lian stood at the side with a fake smile on his face.
No matter who it was, there were only two ways to get rid of the male poison.
The first was a male and female glue.
The other type.
It could only be removed after the medicinal effect dissipated automatically.
No matter what method was used, during the process of the drug taking effect, the entire person would become muddleheaded and would only do things based on their bodily instincts.
"Esteemed guest, Young Master Jiang's vitality has yet to be released, and he hasn't experienced the affairs of men and women.”
Feng Lian smiled hypocritically.
"Yes."
Wu Zetian nodded and looked at the private room in front of her, her expression still calm.
Ever since she was eighteen.
In the Imperial Palace, Empress Lu was very concerned about her marriage.
Empress Lu ordered all officials to find gentlemen from all over the country and offer them to her as male concubines.
These gentlemen were all born graceful like jade and had received good upbringing since they were young.
Wu Zetian had even seen many foreign men.
She thought that she already had a deep sense of self-control towards handsome men.
"Creak."
Wu Zetian slowly opened the door.
She saw a handsome man with his back facing her, holding a corner of the tablecloth tightly in his hand.
"What's wrong? Young Master Jiang, when you see me…I can't even say a word?”

Sorry, it was a bit of a stutter. I just overthrew the outline. This chapter didn't count. There were still two more chapters at night.
