Started from listening to music in the brothel and earned billions of bad people

When Li Xingyun heard Jing Xinmo's chant, his mind was also blank, but then he immediately thought of a lot of things!

It is impossible for Qing Miaoer to do such an excessive thing. Li Xingmeng, the old owner of Tianxiang Pavilion, might be able to do it, but she cannot command Qing Miaoer now, so she is ruled out!

Then there is only one person left who can do this!

The Empress of Huanyinfang, the heroine of today's wedding! Prince Qi Liu Ruyan!

"Don't stop, keep reciting!" Qingshuang was also confused, but she couldn't refuse Liu Ruyan's order, so she could only urge Jing Xinmo again.

"Bai Lu and Hei Luan from Wan Hua Lou, along with all the girls from Wan Hua Lou, wish His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin a happy wedding! May he have a son soon! And here are 100 Dragon and Tiger Pills as a gift!"

"Miss A Zi, the top courtesan at Huanyunfang, and all the other girls at Huanyinfang wish His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin a happy wedding! And a collector's edition of Jin Ping Mei!"

"The most beautiful courtesan in Heaven and Earth, Fox Youyou, along with all the beast-eared ladies in Heaven and Earth, wishes His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin a happy wedding! May he have a son soon! And a copy of the secret book of exotic customs is also a gift!"

As the sounds rang out one after another, everyone at the banquet began to come back to their senses.

"Ahem... Thirteenth brother is really a man of temperament!" The third prince, King of Han Li Xingfan, rolled his eyes and reacted very quickly. A meaningful smile instantly appeared on his handsome face, and he hurried to smooth things over for Li Xingyun.

"That's right. His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin is so young and promising. It's only natural for him to go to those brothels to listen to some songs occasionally. It's absolutely normal!" The Minister of Personnel stroked his beard and echoed with a smile on his face.

"You're right, as the saying goes, 'If a man does not indulge in romance during his youth, he will live his youth in vain!'" Another official also nodded in agreement, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"That's right, that's right!" Seeing this, the other officials responded one after another. For a moment, the originally awkward atmosphere at the banquet became lively again.

However, these officials didn't actually understand what had happened, but they all knew it clearly in their hearts - since the person in charge of the ceremony must be Li Xingyun's confidant, so no matter what, it would be right to speak up for him.

Li Xingyun sat in his seat, watching the farce before him with a cold eye. Hearing the words spoken by the crowd, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.

To be honest, he hadn't anticipated the true purpose behind Liu Ruyan's actions. But he was certain of one thing: Liu Ruyan would never intentionally harm him. Thinking of this, Li Xingyun felt a little more at ease.

The scene just now seemed like a dream. Soon no one mentioned it anymore and everyone started to sit down. They knew that the main event was about to begin!

Sure enough, not long after, a procession of palace officials, dressed in gorgeous palace attire and marching in unison, arrived at the Prince of Qin's residence. Leading the way was none other than Eunuch Xu, the current emperor's most favored and trusted eunuch. He was slightly overweight, his face adorned with a flattering yet dignified smile.

"Eunuch Xu!" Li Xingyun had sharp eyes and spotted Eunuch Xu among the group of people at a glance. He walked forward with a smile.

Eunuch Xu is here representing the emperor, so there is nothing wrong with him taking the initiative!

"Your Highness the Prince of Qin is well! This old servant greets you!" When Eunuch Xu saw Li Xingyun, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, then stood up, raised the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand, and said with a smile: "Your Highness the Prince of Qin, His Majesty has an edict, please accept it!" After that, the smile on his face became even brighter.

Li Xingyun didn't dare to neglect the matter. He quickly took two steps back, bowed his head respectfully, and prepared to listen to the emperor's instructions. He secretly wondered what kind of reward the emperor would bestow upon him. After all, today was a joyous day—he was to marry the young daughter of the King of Northern Liang, Princess Qi.

Eunuch Xu cleared his throat and read aloud, "By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: My thirteenth prince, Prince Qin, a man of noble character and both virtue and talent, is now happily married to the youngest daughter of the King of Northern Liang, Princess Qi. This is truly a match made in heaven. I bestow upon you ten thousand spiritual jades as a token of congratulations! I hope you will live in harmony and respect each other, and build a happy marriage together. I decree this!"

When they heard the phrase "10,000 Spirit Jades," everyone present gasped. After all, Spirit Jades are extremely rare, and even a fortune of millions would be hard to come by. Now, the Emperor had actually awarded a full 10,000 at once. This generous gift was truly astonishing.

Li Xingyun was also extremely surprised, because Lingyu was more useful to him!

"Your son accepts..." Li Xingyun was about to open his mouth to accept the imperial edict and express his gratitude, but he saw Eunuch Xu pull out another imperial edict from his sleeve. This sudden change made him startled, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

Eunuch Xu unfolded the new imperial edict and read aloud, "Prince Qin Li Xingyun has rendered great service to the nation. Therefore, I hereby enfeoff the eldest son of Li Xingyun and Prince Qi as king. When he is born, I will bring him to Shenwu City to nurture him with care!"

The words were like a stone that sent shockwaves through the surrounding crowd. Li Xingyun stood there, stunned, as if struck by lightning. His eyes, once brimming with anticipation, gradually dimmed, his disappointment palpable, a gloomy haze hanging over them, a heartbreaking sight.

Eunuch Xu, who was standing by, saw this and looked at Li Xingyun cautiously and reminded him softly, "Your Highness the Prince of Qin, please accept the order as soon as possible!" However, Li Xingyun did not seem to hear his words at this time, and was still immersed in deep disappointment and unable to extricate himself.

Eunuch Xu's voice, which was not small, still attracted the attention of many people. After hearing the content of the imperial edict, the people present could not help but start to speculate secretly.

"His Majesty is clearly on guard against the King of Qin!" someone whispered.

"That's right. The King of Qin wanted to lower his presence by tarnishing his own reputation, but he didn't expect that the Emperor was not going to let him go easily!" another person echoed.

These whispers were like fine needles, pricking Li Xingyun's heart bit by bit. But at this moment, he suddenly seemed to come to his senses, slowly straightened his back, took a deep breath, and then walked step by step to Eunuch Xu.
