Shocking! Five men are in love with the same woman!

Chu Xiyao, however, was not so shocked.

The main reason is that he was raised by his elder brother, the emperor, from a young age.

It is often seen that the emperor takes such meticulous care of his sister-in-law.

Through constant exposure, he came to believe that it was only natural and right for a husband to take care of his wife.

He has simply seen very few cases like this in recent years.

Looking at Chu Xiyao's expression, Ling Yan was pleased with his recognition and understanding, and couldn't help but feel even more satisfied with him.

So he deliberately probed, "Ninth Prince, could you peel a shrimp for me?"

Chu Xiyao paused.

He looked at Ling Yan and then at Xiao Muyao.

They noticed that both of them seemed to think it was no big deal.

So he replied with a smile, "It would be my honor."

After saying that, he peeled a shrimp with extremely smooth movements and put it into Lingyan's bowl.

Ling Yan was overjoyed, but her face remained impassive.

He smiled and thanked him, saying, "Thank you very much, Ninth Prince."

At this moment, Yun Xiyan also asked, "Ninth Prince, could you peel a shrimp for me?"

After she finished speaking, she blinked her big eyes and looked at him with an extremely pitiful yet adorable expression.

Chu Xiyao didn't know why, but he was somewhat unwilling.

He only wants to do this for those he is close to.

However, Princess Rui was not one of his close confidantes.

But why would he agree to that?

Faced with Yun Xiyan's request, he politely declined, saying, "I'm sorry, Princess Xiyan, I cut my hand while peeling shrimp, so I'm afraid I can't do it for you."

Yun Xiyan showed no dissatisfaction with this.

Instead, he laughed even more heartily and said in an ambiguous tone, "Oh, if that's the case, then let's forget about it."

After saying that, he exchanged a glance with Yun Wanshuang and Yun Shao.

The three of them tacitly understood this.

it is more than words.

The lingering aroma of lunch still lingered on her lips and teeth, but Lingyan's gaze was already sharp as an eagle, sweeping over the guests who had previously cast disdainful glances at her female employees in the lobby.

Her voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear and carried an undeniable force: "You all had very unpleasant expressions in the lobby just now! And you should consider whose territory this is, that allows you to be so presumptuous. If you look down on women in the future, don't leave the house. I don't want to see you again!"

These words were a blatant slap in the face to those people, leaving them blushing with shame and indignation.

They wanted to refute her, but remembering her sharp and incisive words and quick thinking, they could only swallow their frustration and give up in frustration.

Lingyan felt somewhat bored and disappointed to see how patient they were, not daring to utter a sound.

I was originally planning to give them a good scolding and teach them a lesson.

Who would have thought they were such cowards!

That’s all.

Afterwards, the group left the restaurant.

Lingyan's enthusiasm remained undiminished, and she led the group through the bustling streets, visiting the remaining shops one by one.

Time slipped away quietly amidst laughter and a dazzling array of goods.

After dinner in the afternoon, we continued with everyone.

They continued shopping until night fell and the stars twinkled in the sky, at which point they finally stopped.

Ling Yan recalled all the purchases made by the imperial envoy's team at various shops that day.

I did a rough calculation and it turned out to be three million taels!

God!

She'll continue slaughtering them tomorrow.

This money is so easy to make!

However, after today, they might not be as easily fooled tomorrow.

but it does not matter.

Even if it's just for today, she is already very happy and content.

At this point, the plan was to send them back to the inn, but many of them didn't want to go back, saying that it was still early and they wanted to continue exploring.

And judging from the hints in their eyes and words, Lingyan and Xiao Muyao understood where they wanted to go for a stroll.

Brothel.

Lingyan remained silent.

But he still agreed, saying, "Since you haven't had enough of sightseeing, then the prince and I will take you to a nice place to visit."

As soon as the words were spoken, the envoys who had something on their minds were filled with anticipation and excitement.

But at this moment, Chu Xiyao frowned and bluntly refused, saying, "I don't like that kind of place, so I'll go back first."

Lingyan looked at him curiously and asked, "What do you not like?"

Chu Xiyao replied with a look of disgust: "First, the smell of cosmetics is too strong and suffocating; second, some men with dissolute behavior are really hard to look at; third, the decadent music disturbs the mind; fourth, the environment is dirty and unbearable to look at."

Lingyan nodded gently in understanding.

However, most of the men present felt as if he were being insulted by the disdain and contempt in his words.

However, since they didn't name names, they didn't rush to say anything.

Lingyan didn't force him at this time, but smiled and agreed, "I can understand what you're saying. It's just that the brothels you've heard from others may be different. These things do happen, but we're not going there for a one-night stand today. We're just going to watch songs and listen to music. If you still don't want to, I won't force you."

To be honest, the more she understood Chu Xiyao, the more satisfied she became with him.

She just didn't want him to generalize, so she left the choice of whether or not to go to him.

Chu Xiyao asked in surprise after hearing her words, "You've been there?"

Otherwise, she wouldn't know so much about these things, and she wouldn't talk about them without any hesitation.

Lingyan readily admitted, "I went there, and stayed for several hours."

Hearing this, everyone saw how calmly she looked, as if visiting a brothel as a princess was no big deal.

But the problem is, it's a big problem.

Throughout history, no royal princess has ever frequented brothels.

And now they're admitting it so openly and frankly.

Looking at Prince Rui again, he showed absolutely no reaction.

This shows that Prince Rui was also aware of this matter.

They were at a loss for words.

They were simply shocked once again.

That's absolutely outrageous!

After hearing her admit it, Chu Xiyao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, saying, "Okay, then I'll go and see for myself and broaden my horizons."

Ling Yan smiled and was not surprised at all.

So she and Xiao Muyao led the envoys to Liuchun Tower.

Upon entering Liuchunlou, everyone in the hall looked at them and stood up to quietly bow.

The same madam from last time saw them and immediately greeted them with a smile. After bowing, she respectfully asked, "Distinguished guests, your presence is an honor to Liuchun Pavilion. I will now escort you to the largest and best private room."

Ling Yan nodded.

The madam then led the way.

Upon reaching a private room on the third floor, the madam asked with a nervous smile, "I wonder if our distinguished guests are satisfied?"

The envoys were indeed very satisfied.

Can you be dissatisfied?

Ling Yan looked at this private room, which was even bigger and more luxurious than the one she had been to last time. It was simply outrageously extravagant.

How could I not be satisfied?

Lingyan replied, "I'm very satisfied. Please prepare a table of food and wine, and invite some girls to listen to music and watch dances. I'll call you again if needed."

Seeing that they were satisfied, the madam finally felt relieved after hearing Lingyan's words.

She then replied with a fawning smile, "I understand, and I will do my best to arrange it."

He then bowed to the crowd and withdrew.

Seeing Princess Rui's practiced and knowledgeable demeanor, everyone was at a loss for how to react.

Lingyan ignored them and found a place to sit down.

Xiao Muyao also sat down next to her.

Then Chu Xiyao and the three from Xuan Yue Kingdom sat down around them.

The other envoys also found their own seats and sat down.

Shortly afterward, the food and drinks were served, and the girls took their places.

The vibrant nightlife then officially begins.
