The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

After a while, the woman brought four other women over.

These four women, each with their own unique appearance, were indeed rare beauties, but the most beautiful? They couldn't even be called that! Situ Yaorao looked around critically, her voice lowering, "Is this the most beautiful girl in your Tianxiang Tower?"

"Um... yes. The four of them are the most popular girls here."

"They are not as beautiful as me. Are you kidding me?" Situ Yaorao pointed at the four girls with a look of disdain.

The woman's face froze when she heard this. At first glance, Situ was enchanting. Don't say it! It's really like this! This young man looks like a peach blossom with enchanting eyebrows and eyes.

"What do you mean, young master?" the woman asked Situ Yaorao.

"I want the most beautiful woman here!" Situ Yaorao deliberately emphasized the word "most beautiful".

The woman understood what he said! So he was here to see the courtesan Ruyi!

"Young Master, to be honest, the most beautiful girl in our Tianxiang Tower is the courtesan Ruyi. But Miss Ruyi doesn't see guests. If you want to see her, you'll have to wait for the piano concert in Tianxiang Tower to start." The woman gestured to Situ Yaorao to give her an excuse.

Situ Yaorao raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and casually pointed at a woman and said, "Prepare a room for me. I'll be waiting!"

When the woman saw this, she immediately smiled and arranged a room by the window for Situ Yaorao.

As the Tianxianglou Qin concert began, the usually quiet lobby was packed. A stage was set up in front. Yunniang, swaying her slender waist, stepped onto the stage, looked at the crowd, and flirted with them. "Everyone, our Tianxianglou Qin concert begins now! Miss Ruyi, please come up and perform a piece!"

"Okay! Miss Ruyi, come out quickly!"

"I came into this Tianxiang Tower just to see you!"

"Miss Ruyi, marry me!"

Everyone was noisy and excited, and then, a gentle sound of piano music was heard. The sound of the piano was like jade, evoking a chill. At this moment, everyone held their breath.

A woman in white descended from the high platform and landed gracefully on it. She gently stroked the Xuanqin in her hand, and melodious music emanated from it. This woman had a pair of inky black phoenix eyes and a slightly cold brow, giving off an otherworldly aura.

She wore a veil, which aroused people's curiosity and made them want to see what kind of person this woman with such eyes was.

The sound of the zither faded, and the woman put away her qin. She looked at everyone and a cold, neutral voice slowly rang out, making it impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman. "Welcome everyone to the Tianxiang Tower zither party. Today, Ruyi's question is, what is love? If you love someone, how would you treat the one you love?"

After Ruyi finished speaking, everyone whispered.

An hourglass was brought up.

Everyone was given a piece of paper, seemingly to write down their answers.

Situ Yaorao naturally received it as well.

Looking at the paper, Situ Yaorao smiled. Without writing a single word, she folded the paper and handed it over.

When the hourglass ran out, Ruyi got everyone's answers.

After a while, the voice sounded again: "Excuse me, young man who handed in the blank paper, what is your answer?"

"White paper?"

"Who is it? The troublemaker?"

"Damn it! Get out! How dare you play tricks on our Miss Ruyi!" This piece of white paper caused public outrage. On the second floor, Situ Yaorao smiled faintly and said through the window, "What is love? I don't know. If I had someone I loved, what would I do? I don't know either. Love is ethereal, yet great, and unfathomable. How can I express it on a piece of paper? So, my answer is, I don't know."

"Damn! You really are here to cause trouble!"

"Boy! Come down here if you can!"

Everyone shouted angrily.

However, just as the hall was about to explode, Ruyi smiled. This smile was cold, but it was filled with a hint of appreciation: "Young Master, your answer is the answer in Ruyi's heart. Please come to Ruyi's room to discuss it."

After the woman finished speaking, she turned around and got off the stage.

Yunniang hurried over and said with a smile, "Everyone, today's piano concert is over. Thank you all for coming here to support us!"

With these words, no matter how dissatisfied everyone was, they had nowhere to vent. There were many people causing trouble in Tianxiang Tower. But the consequences of their troublemaking? No one could bear the consequences!

"Young Master, you have got what you wished for. Come this way."

Miss Ruyi's room was very simple, with a table and chairs, a big bed, grass-scented incense, a square screen, and a dressing table.

"Young Master? Haha, it's better to call you Miss." Ruyi looked at Situ Yaorao and chuckled teasingly.
