The Empress's Gigolo

Chapter 601 - Qing Lian

Panda Novel

Qing Lian sat languidly on a branch as she opened the letter and read the headline written on it.

“Do you want fame, wealth, and status? Do you want to understand the mysteries of this world? It can be given to you! Go find it! I have put everything there!”

“Oh, what a load of hot air.” Qing Lian snorted derisively. She read the full contents below the headline while gently swinging and dangling from the branch. She folded the paper into a paper airplane and launched it into the distance.

A man jumped up from below the tree to catch the paper airplane and said, “Your habit of throwing things haphazardly isn’t good. Well, what do you think?”

“Either he is an egomaniac or a big con man!” Qing Lian said disdainfully.

“I know you have suffered somewhat, but don’t ever let it obscure your view,” Su Qing said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Qing Lian turned ghastly pale. At that time, she had just wanted to watch a good show and hadn’t expected such a disastrous encounter. If she were granted the chance to relive the experience, her choice would be to depart far, far away from the imperial capital and not even stay for a moment.

“Sword, come here!” Qing Lian ordered softly. A flash of green light came out of nowhere and she dived like a fairy at Su Qing.

“This has nothing to do with me… That’s enough—I will not mention it in the future.” Su Qing scrambled aside in a hurry and saw a deep pit at his original position.

“If you mention it again, don’t blame me for opening holes at the top and bottom parts of you.” Qing Lian laughed coldly.

Su Qing said seriously, “I think you always seem to be saying something extraordinary!”

“Get lost!”

“However, don’t underestimate him. He isn’t simple, and I can’t figure him out.” Su Qing got back on track again.

“This was declared during the empress’s birthday celebration. It has been three months since, yet this was suddenly shown to me. What’s he trying to do?”

“Aren’t you interested?” Su Qing, who was holding the letter, asked in surprise. Qing Lian undoubtedly liked to join in on the fun.

According to a legend, there was a master who left behind a treasure map, and she spent two years chasing after it. After numerous bloody battles, she managed to snatch the underwear that had the martial arts skills written on it.

“1,200 pieces—do you think I’m stupid?” Only a fool would search for them because it’s impossible to gather them all together,” Qing Lian said contemptuously.

“Cough!” Su Qing coughed awkwardly.

“Did you send someone to look for them?” Qing Lian looked at Su Qing again in a new light. How did she not know that he was this stupid before?

“It isn’t necessary to find all 1,200 pieces in order to find the location,” Su Qing answered.

“What in the world do you want me to do? Don’t dawdle like a constipated guy.” Qing Lian frowned.

“I want you to go to Lan City and find someone,” Su Qing finally said.

“Who?” Qing Lian asked.

“Ning Caichen. He’s a sword master like you, he possesses a sword called Green Pearl, and his level is very close to the Earth Embryo Realm. He and Ren Baqian are old friends and will most likely be in Lan City. He has certain things that we must lay our hands on.” From his bosom, Su Qing took out a portrait that depicted a delicate and pretty scholar.

“In addition, inform Dayao that the new emperor has ascended the throne and recruited 400,000 new soldiers to deploy all over the country. Furthermore, all the veteran soldiers have been regrouped and transferred to the border. Meanwhile, a new army has been dispatched to replace the soldiers stationed at the border with the Yun Nation. Including the remaining 180,000 soldiers from Tiesuo Pass, they have gathered another 500,000 soldiers. This is also Great Xia’s last remaining force. This is the final light of Great Xia!” Su Qing said as he looked up at the sky.

“That is to say, your plan is about to start?” Qing Lian asked eagerly.

“It’s sooner than I estimated!” Qing Lian stretched her body. Her white dress clung to her body, outlining her curves.

“It’s sooner than I expected as well! Thanks to the fact that I was sent to Tianjing Basin and happened to meet Ren Baqian, the Great Xia emperor died so early, causing progress to speed up as a result,” Su Qing said.

“Ren Baqian…” Qing Lian’s eyes flickered.

“You better not entertain any ideas and commit a serious mistake. Qi Zixiao isn’t someone to be trifled with—even the Spirit Spear, Teng Yue, was killed by her,” Su Qing warned Qing Lian.

“Teng Yue wasn’t Qi Zixiao’s match. He overestimated himself.” Qing Lian hissed softly. Although she wasn’t at the scene, she could imagine what had probably happened.

“Teng Yue was a treacherous and unscrupulous man. Logically speaking, he wasn’t easy to deal with. It’s rather surprising to me that he didn’t inflict much harm to the aboriginals before dying.”

Of course, she didn’t know that Teng Yue was still trying to figure out the whereabouts of his spear before he died. Otherwise, he might have caused some trouble.

“In that case, I will pack up and set out tomorrow,” Qing Lian said before turning around. Her eyes were filled with some inexplicable lights.

Ren Baqian… It was better to offend a villain than to offend a woman.

Ren Baqian was coming out of Jing Street when he heard a suggestive call.

“Sir Ren, would you like to pay us a visit?”

This voice conveyed a message that asked him to have fun!

This seductive voice sounded charming and promised romance. It was hard for most people to resist.

Ren Baqian turned and saw a charming lady leaning against the door of a shop while smiling at him.

This lady was dressed in purple with part of her hair tied high at the back and the rest falling down on both sides of her face, causing half of her face to be covered. The area around her eyes was painted pink to give the eyes a long, narrow, and flirtatious look.

A little red lip could be like a raging fire that caused an internal inferno.

“Ning Caichen!” Ren Baqian saw him rarely over the last two months, and he was even more enchanting now.

Written on the signboard were the words, “Coming Home” and beside it was another signboard with the big word, “Wine.”

Ning Caichen established this wine shop after living in seclusion on Jing Street for two months.

With his fighting skills, those who could beat him wouldn’t disturb him, whereas ordinary people wouldn’t cause trouble because they were no match for him. In addition, with his enchanting looks, most people wouldn’t create problems for him.

Not only that, his business was doing well, and recently, many children of the officials were seen coming here frequently.

For example, the sons of Xi Wanya and Du Changkong.

The actions of these people were self-evident.

It wasn’t known how these people would react once they found out his real identity.

Ren Baqian changed his mind, dismounted, and went in with his guards.

“Such a visit from Sir Ren is hard to come by. Therefore, you should spend more time here. Please wait shortly for me while I prepare some dishes!” Ning Caichen said gently. He looked seductive with eyes that seemed to be brimming with tears.

Shi Hu and others, who were standing behind Ren Baqian, certainly knew his identity, but could hardly restrain themselves.

“To pounce despite knowing he is a man… or not to pounce…?” Shi Hu and others were conflicted and stared fixedly at Ning Caichen.

“Cough. Don’t trouble yourself as I will only stay here for a short time.” Ren Baqian’s cough effectively woke them up.

If he didn’t wake them up, Shi Hu would have started drooling.

Even after being awakened, Shi Hu and company were still shaken by their thoughts as they swayed back and forth while turning their heads away in regret.

If he was a woman, they would have snatched her even if one were to break their legs.

Unfortunately, she was still a man… In spite of this, what were they to do if they still fell for him?

“Your situation seems to look good!” Ren Baqian said after looking around. The wine shop that had six tables downstairs wasn’t big, and there were fresh flowers everywhere.

“To be alone like a drifting duckweed, what can I do even if I were to be very attractive ?” Ning Caichen asked gloomily.

Ren Baqian didn’t dare to respond and simply pretended not to hear this.

“If Sir Ren is free, there is no harm in visiting me more often. As old friends, we can converse with each other,” Ning Caichen added.

“I’m very busy!” Ren Baqian shook his head. “I’m up to my neck in work every day, and it has been a long time since I have had any free time.”

“If Sir Ren has any troubles, you might as well tell me since I may be able to help,” Ning Caichen said tenderly. Ren Baqian could sense the hidden power in her lilting voice. Very few people would be able to withstand it if they didn’t know of her original identity.

After changing his gender, Ning Caichen had become even more feminine than a woman.

Ren Baqian subsequently departed with his guards after spending a short time in the shop.

“Oh my gosh. I felt like abducting and marrying her.” Shi Hu was smacking his lips as he came out.

Ren Baqian turned to look at Shi Hu in disgust and said sadly, “I didn’t know that you were such a person. Keep your distance from me!”

“He is more seductive than the women in the strongholds,” Shi Hu tried to explain.

A few guards around him immediately kept their distance from him to indicate that they weren’t the same as him.
