The Empress's Gigolo

Panda Novel

Upon reaching the palace, the empress casually asked Ren Baqian, “That gadget of yours is pretty interesting! How did you use it to win?”

“The attraction of a magnet and its magnetic force.” Ren Baqian smiled as he explained it to the empress. He then asked, “Do you want to try it out?”

“Sure!”

Ren Baqian was taken aback by her answer. To his surprise, the magnet actually piqued the empress’s curiosity.

He subsequently ordered someone to get the strong magnetic hoop as well as the two electromagnetic belts. Ren Baqian then put the magnet hoop around the empress, but due to the empress’s slender body, she had to use one of her hands to hold one side of the hoop.

As for Ren Baqian, he put on the electromagnetic belts before smirking.

In such cases, for the magnetic field to curve outward, it didn’t rely on one’s strength, but on one’s weight!

He was at least twice as heavy as the empress!

“What are you trying to plot?” The empress saw the smirk on his face and rolled her eyes.

“Nothing.” Ren Baqian quickly offered a denial as he sized her up. Shortly after, he moved to an area behind the empress. This way, the empress would be repelled toward the door.

Then, he pushed a button on one of the belts!

In an instant, the empress felt the power of the belt, which was trying to restrict her and send her flying.

Swoosh.

Bang!

Ren Baqian was sent flying into the wall with his hands and legs spread out. He was extremely perplexed.

“How can this be?! Your Majesty didn’t even exert any strength, so how’s it possible that I flew out?”

“Hmph, I knew you had a secret motive.” The empress shot him a cold glance and spoke without any expression.

Ren Baqian struggled but to no avail. The repulsive force had caused him to become glued against the wall, and he couldn’t even move his waist.

“Anyway, I still have another trick!” Ren Baqian immediately switched to the other belt.

Once again, the empress felt that the magnetic hoop at her waist was pulling her in one direction. Next, she stabilized herself and didn’t move a single bit.

With a big smile on his face, Ren Baqian was currently in midair and pouncing toward the empress’s direction… It was more like he was being pulled.

The empress saw that Ren Baqian was approaching her and raised her right hand to push his right shoulder…

Snap!

Instantly, Ren Baqian somersaulted continuously in midair as the empress used one hand to grab ahold of his belt. She then spun on the ground as her red muslin dress swayed with every movement she made. As they continued to spin, everything in the palace hall gradually became fuzzy. With just the two of them looking at each other, it was as if they were the only ones in this world.

After that, the empress flung outward, causing Ren Baqian to shoot out of the palace’s doorway like an artillery shell.

The empress tossed an electrical accumulator up and down. Sure enough, the problem was due to this thing. Once she took it out, the attractive force was gone.

Not long after, Ren Baqian returned with his entire body covered in dirt. His right arm was dangling, his facial expression was extremely tragic, and he exclaimed, “Your Majesty, my arm was broken by you!”

The empress sighed and retorted, “You are too weak! Somebody get the doctor to come over now!”

Ren Baqian sighed as well and said, “I’m sure most people are considered weak by you, right?”

Thankfully, after being examined by the doctor, Ren Baqian had only dislocated his right shoulder. The doctor merely had to push the bone back in place.

…

WIth Ren Baqian’s victory this time around, a crisis sparked off among the court officials.

Even though it seemed as if Ren Baqian was in a difficult situation during the fight, he was only a Four-way Heaven expert, whereas Tu Hong was a Cardinal Heaven expert.

To the surprise of everyone, Tu Hong actually failed to catch him in the time it took to burn a stick of incense. Furthermore, Ren Baqian’s speed was almost on par with Tu Hong’s for the majority of the time. This fact alone was already sufficient to astound everyone present.

First of all, Du Laoliu had won against Tu Yu. Now, Ren Baqian had won against Tu Hong. The results of these two competitions had greatly affected the outlooks of the aboriginal court officials.

In addition, what Ren Baqian had said after the duel between Du Liaoliu and Tu Yu was also spread to everyone along with the ending of this competition.

At the moment, everyone was just waiting for the next competition in seven days’ time.

The court officials in Lan City were greatly affected, but the students of Black Bamboo Academy were greatly encouraged and had their confidence boosted.

On the other hand, everyone in Tu Hong’s residence was disappointed.

No matter what the reasons were, the results were that a Kismet Heaven expert and a Cardinal Heaven expert had lost to two Four-way Heaven experts. This made every single person in the Tu Residence unable to lift their heads up.

They were all looking forward to the next competition.

Since Ren Baqian dared to initiate another competition, they were certain that there was a catch to a simple competition like the one proposed.

Yet, no matter how hard they racked their brains, they would never be able to figure it out.

…

“General Xin Zhe!” With a wide smile on his face, Ren Baqian stopped Xin Zhe, who was walking in the palace.

“What’s the matter?” Xin Zhe slid her glasses down and revealed a sharp gaze.

With glasses, she could finally see everything in this world. As a result, her attitude toward Ren Baqian had greatly improved since he was the person who had gifted her these glasses.

At the very least, she wasn’t as intimidating as before.

“Can you help me with an experiment?” Ren Baqian tried to make himself sound friendlier. At the beginning, when he first used a stun baton, he noticed that the aboriginals only had slightly better resistance to electricity than people on Earth.

However, he was clueless as to whether a Cardinal Heaven expert could withstand it.

It was necessary to make the other party lose strength without endangering their life.

That’s why he needed a Cardinal Heaven expert as an experimental subject.

Although there were many experts with such strength in the imperial court, it was difficult to find an experimental subject. It was only at that point that he decided to target Xin Zhe.

“Experiment?” Xin Zhe was a little doubtful. “What do you mean?”

“I just need you to test out the power of my equipment because I’m not sure what kind of effect it will have on a Cardinal Heaven expert.” Ren Baqian decided not to beat around the bush.

“You will be using it for your next competition?” Xin Zhe asked in a straightforward manner.

“Yes!”

“In that case, let me meet Her Majesty first!” Xin Zhe readily agreed.

“Many thanks! I’ll treat you to a slice of cake!” Ren Baqian extended his hand and somehow took out a slice of cake.

Ren Baqian felt that he was almost like Doraemon[1.Doraemon: a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Fujiko F. Fujin]. However, Doraemon could fish out all sorts of items, such as sunglasses and so on, whereas he could only fish out different types of dessert!

This was all because the people in the palace loved sweet treats!

At the very least, desserts could win over the empress, Qing Yuan, Hong Luan, Lin Qiaole, and even the person in front of him.

Xin Zhe conveniently accepted his gift and went to meet the empress.

As for Ren Baqian, he returned to Pingle Park and played with Tiantian and Gungun.

The two pandas and Ren Baqian took turns slapping one another, but each party had the chance to dodge. This game kept the pandas busy and excited for a while.

After playing for some time, tears began to roll down Tiantian and Gungun’s tiny eyes… Ren Baqian also wasn’t able to continue with the game.

Fortunately, Xin Zhe came at the right time.

“What do you need me to do?” Dressed in her armor, Xin Zhe stood at the entrance of Pingle Park and radiated a golden glow as the sunlight fell behind her.
