"She won't know, I didn't go there to kill her in the first place." Xiao Taiping looked at Binghai Yixuan in confusion and asked, "Then, what is it for?" Binghai Yixuan smiled slightly and said, "I think I can only observe her from afar."
Xiao Taiping gave him a disdainful thumbs-up, pointing downwards. "You have no guts. I despise you." Binghai Yixuan was completely bewildered by Xiao Taiping. "What do you mean, 'despise you'?" Xiao Taiping looked at him in shock and sighed slightly. "Never mind, I'll let you in."
Binghai Yixuan smiled helplessly, "What are you doing here instead of staying in the palace, you little kid?" Little Taiping struggled out of Binghai Yixuan's embrace, tilting her head back and puffing out her chest, "You don't know, do you? I'm the leading general in this attack on Ziye Kingdom." Binghai Yixuan was slightly taken aback, her face full of disbelief, "Leading general? The general who took over all the outer cities of Ziye Kingdom in one night?" Little Taiping nodded excitedly, not expecting her reputation to even reach the people of Ziye Kingdom. (Of course they know, you attacked Ziye Kingdom. I seriously despise you.)
Binghai Yixuan was completely stunned. This guy was even more formidable than her mother! "By the way, when are you planning to go see my beautiful mother? So she can ease her lovesickness." A slight blush appeared on Binghai Yixuan's handsome face as he shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I've already lost my chance to be by her side. Alright, I'm going into the city." He turned and left. "Hey, aren't you going to the Kingdom of a Hundred Flowers?" Little Taiping frowned. "What a strange person."
Inside the imperial city of the Purple Night Kingdom, the court was filled with civil and military officials. Liu Yun, holding an imperial edict, read aloud, "...I hereby appoint Minister Liu Yun as the next emperor. So be it." With that, Liu Yun coldly smiled at the officials below. A murmur arose below the hall. "Minister Liu, please show us the imperial edict so we can see it clearly and understand," an elderly minister stepped forward and said. "Minister Liu, please show us the imperial edict so we can see it clearly and understand," the ministers shouted in unison.
Liu Yun wasn't in a hurry. She simply smiled coldly and handed the imperial edict to the young eunuch, indicating that he should show it to the ministers. The young eunuch respectfully accepted the edict, descended the steps, and walked back and forth several times, presenting the edict to the ministers, before returning to his original position.
Liu Yun laughed heartily, "Have you all seen clearly, ministers?" "This..." The ministers were all perplexed, unable to comprehend how their emperor could have been murdered and died. The ministers shook their heads. "Your Majesty, we pay our respects! Long live the Emperor!" At this moment, one minister knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty!" Despite their bewilderment, the ministers could only give up now. "We pay our respects to Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!" The ministers all knelt down to pay their respects.
Liu Yun laughed wildly in the main hall. He turned around and sat on the dragon throne. "Rise, my beloved ministers." "Thank you, Your Majesty." The ministers stood up and waited for the new emperor's instructions.
Liu Yun coldly surveyed the ministers and said, "Now, the Hundred Flowers Kingdom has attacked my Purple Night Kingdom, capturing our outer cities overnight. It's truly an insult we can't swallow. I told the former emperor long ago that the Hundred Flowers Kingdom must be plotting something. Now, with this situation..." Liu Yun hesitated, secretly chuckling to himself. He wanted to discredit Purple Night Yu Xun's court. "How about that? The old fox is still cunning."
At this moment, a minister stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, my spies reported that on the day of the opening ceremony of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, the King of the Southern Sang Kingdom personally attended and presented the Southern Sang Kingdom to the Queen of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, requesting to become the Queen's consort. I believe that the Hundred Flowers Kingdom's wealth and military strength are unmatched. I urge Your Majesty to allow our country to form a marriage alliance with the Hundred Flowers Kingdom to stabilize our rule."
In the imperial court, Liu Yun's eyes gleamed as he said, "I quite admire this Empress, but why would an Empress deign to become my concubine?" The minister was slightly taken aback, his face somewhat embarrassed. *I didn't ask you to marry her; I'm merely selecting handsome men within our own country.* *Besides, you're so old; she wouldn't even be interested.* The minister composed himself and said, "I believe we can select handsome men and send them to the Kingdom of Hundred Flowers for a marriage alliance."
Liu Yun was slightly taken aback, then a sinister look appeared on his old face as he said, "To be honest, this Empress of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom is none other than the former Crown Princess of our dynasty, Princess Binghai Wan'er of the Ice Sea Kingdom." His words caused an uproar among the ministers in the court. If that were the case, then war was inevitable.
Back then, Liu Qinyao treated her so badly, even causing her to abort her child. Now, the emperor is the father of that wicked Liu Qinyao. Though she harbors a thousand resentments, the Empress Dowager's decree and the Phoenix Seal are there, leaving no room for doubt. Furthermore, the late emperor tacitly approved the destruction of Binghai. How could Binghai Wan'er not avenge such deep-seated hatred?
The ministers felt a chill run down their spines, and the scene from the imperial court in the past flashed through their minds.
Wan'er's white robes, already stained crimson with blood, were tattered and worn, barely revealing glimpses of her body. Her eyes held a mixture of hatred and contempt, her tone icy and filled with murderous intent. There was a regal majesty, a beauty so pure and haunting despite her tortured pallor, a beauty that dared not be defiled. "Hahaha, I, Binghai Wan'er, will not let you live so carefree! One day, I will make you repay me a hundredfold!" This was her curse, her curse that prayed for the destruction of the Purple Night Kingdom.
The ministers shook their heads in disappointment; it seemed their days were numbered. However, to die at the hands of such a woman was perhaps a blessing in disguise. (Good heavens, you've all gone mad! You're all captivated by Wan'er's heroic spirit. Oh my god…)
Liu Yun sneered inwardly, "Ministers, since we can't have her, let's destroy her and prevent others from having her either." (What a scoundrel! Liu Yun is such a villain. He destroys her because he can't have her. How shameless!) The ministers all lowered their heads and remained silent.
Liu Yun, unconcerned, asked, "Where is General Lu?" "Your subject is here." A young man with captivating eyes, a high, narrow nose, and bright red lips that seemed to bleed easily—a handsome fellow indeed. He stepped forward and listened to Liu Yun's reply.
Liu Yun smiled slightly and said, "Seeing you, you were one of the meritorious officials who helped me annihilate the Ice Sea Kingdom last time. Your strength is also extraordinary." Lu Feng was slightly taken aback, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes as he said, "Your Majesty is joking. I did nothing back then; I merely stood by and watched. How dare I claim credit?"
(Sorry everyone, I got out of class late today. I apologize for that. I have a suggestion: maybe you could wait and see how the story goes. That would be helpful.)
Chapter Seventy-Two: You, I'll Take You In
Chapter Seventy-Two of "Gathering of Handsome Men": You, I Accept. "Your Majesty is truly joking. Regarding what happened back then, I did nothing; I merely stood by and watched. How dare I claim credit?" With these words, Lu Feng completely absolved himself of any responsibility for the destruction of the kingdom. But what exactly happened?
The fleeting ruthlessness in Liu Yun's eyes was caught by Lu Feng.
Lu Feng, unfazed, continued, "Lu Feng is the Emperor's man, not your subordinate or servant, Liu Yun. Lu Feng only listens to the Emperor, not you." His languid yet alluring voice echoed throughout the hall, stunning everyone present. "Back then, you stole my military orders and secretly led your troops to destroy the Binghai Kingdom. How could this have happened? Your daughter is utterly foolish, actually seducing me. I, Lu Feng, don't wear someone else's worn-out shoes." Lu Feng looked at Liu Yun with disdain, as if to say, "You let me wear what you've worn? Hmph, you underestimate me, Lu Feng." A murmur rippled through the court, with officials whispering and discussing amongst themselves.
Liu Yun suddenly lost his composure, his eyes somewhat dazed. Could it be that he saw every time I favored Liu Qinyao? Liu Yun swallowed hard and said, "You said you only listen to the Emperor. Is that true?" Lu Feng curled his lips. "That's true."
Liu Yun snorted coldly and said, "Now I am the Emperor. What is your punishment for insubordination?" Lu Feng was not flustered at all. Instead, he laughed loudly in front of all the civil and military officials. "I am not like these mediocre officials." Lu Feng paused here and looked at the ministers behind him who were giving him murderous looks. He smiled coldly and continued, "How could I not know your little secret?"
Liu Yun was slightly taken aback, fine beads of sweat dripping down his face. His rough hands gripped the dragon throne tightly, his face deathly pale. His sharp eyes stared at Lu Feng in terror, afraid he would say something drastic. Lu Feng raised a single, sword-like eyebrow and slowly opened his lips, saying, "Oh? It seems there is indeed such a thing." Liu Yun was completely stunned this time. What did he mean? Was he just trying to trick him? Oh no, had he given himself away? What should he do?
Lu Feng glanced at Liu Yun and said, "Remember this: in my eyes, you're nothing but a petty person. How could you possibly deserve the title of Emperor? Humph." Liu Yun sighed in relief and slumped back on the dragon throne. Lu Feng's smile widened. "However, since it concerns the safety of the nation and its people, I will send troops to defend the city." With that, Lu Feng turned and left the hall.
The civil and military officials looked at each other, ultimately unsure what to do. "Court adjourned." Liu Yun waved weakly, rose, and left. Lu Feng, this feud is now set in stone. It's just that you now control all the military power in the Purple Night Kingdom, so I can't act rashly. Just wait, I won't be a gentleman if I don't avenge this. (Ugh, disgusting. A gentleman, you think?)
Inside the palace of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, Wan'er, dressed in white, reclined on a chaise longue in the garden, surrounded by five handsome men. "Wan'er, do you know? I never imagined that Taiping could take over all the outer cities of the Purple Night Kingdom in one night." Ruo Xiao said excitedly. He almost spoiled his daughter rotten. Although she wasn't his biological daughter, she was Wan'er and Jin Fan's.
Wan'er pretended to be upset and said, "Really, you all spoil her so much, I'll get jealous." Her words amused the five handsome men.
Yun Nuo walked to the chaise lounge, sat down, and hugged Wan'er in his arms, saying affectionately, "In Yun Nuo's eyes, there is only Wan'er. I know, although Taiping looks only one year old, she is actually about the same age as us." The other four handsome men were all stunned and asked in unison, "What do you mean?" Wan'er sighed slightly, "Nothing can be hidden from you. Yes, Taiping is from another world. She died in an accident, but her memories were not erased, so she was reincarnated into me."
The four handsome men nodded knowingly. "No wonder. She's only one year old, yet she's already incredibly gifted." All five men looked at Wan'er with deep affection and said, "Our hearts are small; they can only hold Wan'er alone." Wan'er smiled happily. Actually, she wasn't jealous at all. No matter how big she was, she was still her own flesh and blood. As for me, I'm just her beautiful mother.
Wan'er gazed affectionately at the five handsome men, smiled slightly, and looked into the distance. Nan Sanglin smiled faintly and said, "Wan'er misses them, doesn't she? Why don't you bring him back tonight and tell him that you have forgiven him?" Wan'er looked at Nan Sanglin, then at Ruoxiao, Wanluo, Yunnuo, and Jinfan, and they all nodded to Wan'er.
Wan'er took a deep breath and smiled, her beauty as radiant as a flower. The five men were dazzled, their breathing quickening. Yunnuo captured Wan'er's cherry lips first, while the other four men gently stepped forward and embraced her. "What kind of 5P is this?! No! I can't take it!" Wan'er cried out inwardly, but who cared?
On the outskirts of the Purple Night Kingdom, a group of soldiers marched in. The general at the head of the group was clad in armor, with his long black hair piled high. He had a face that could bring ruin to a country, and his eyes, though seemingly full of peach blossoms, were filled with a chilling aura. The newcomer was none other than Lu Feng.
Lu Feng rode majestically on his horse, leading a large army behind him toward Taiping's territory.
Little Taiping floated high in the air—what incredible skill! She glanced at the large army ahead and snorted coldly. Suddenly, a bright spot caught her eye. She examined it closely. "So beautiful. His soul is so beautiful. It makes me want him uncontrollably." A smile curved her pink lips, and a glint of light appeared in her eyes. "You... I'll take you."
The large army halted within the outer city walls of the Purple Night Kingdom. Lu Feng slightly raised his hand, and the troops behind him stood in neat formation. Lu Feng looked solemnly at the military camp ahead and said loudly, "Are all the people of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom cowards? Not a single one of them has come out to fight." "Don't be so hasty, you have to give them some time to prepare," a childish voice rang out, but no one answered.
Lu Feng cautiously surveyed his surroundings, his fingers already gripping his sword. Seeing their general's cautious demeanor, Lu Feng's army also gripped their swords, ready to fight at any moment. A moment later, a group of soldiers marched in orderly formation from afar. And leading them was... well, a... oh my god! Lu Feng and his men were all dumbfounded. What was going on here?
Lu Feng frowned slightly and said, "Please let your general come out and fight me, Lu Feng, in a fierce battle." No one from the opposing army responded to him. Lu Feng narrowed his eyes and was about to draw his sword when the childish voice rang out again.
Leading the procession was a one-year-old girl, whose beauty was so captivating that one couldn't help but fall in love with her. The little girl lay leisurely and languidly on the horse's back, occasionally stroking its head. The horse seemed to understand her words. She giggled, her voice as melodious as a babbling brook. "I am the Great General, the Crown Prince of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, Taiping."
(Wow, little Taiping is so cute! Hehe, I've fallen for someone else!)
Handsome Men Gather Chapter Seventy-Three God
"I am the Great General, the Crown Prince of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, Taiping." Lu Feng was slightly taken aback, his sword-like eyebrows furrowing, clearly disbelieving.
Little Taiping pouted slightly, patted the horse's back lightly with both hands, and with a light tap of her toes, she was on Lu Feng's horse in an instant. The horse neighed, and Little Taiping smiled brightly, reaching out to stroke its head. "Good boy." A miracle occurred; the horse, which had been trembling just moments before, now stood obediently on its feet. Little Taiping nodded in satisfaction, nestling her face against Lu Feng's chest. "You really are beautiful."
Lu Feng's lips twitched, a strange feeling stirring within him. He said coldly, "Beautiful?" Lu Feng looked down displeasedly at the little brat who had clung to him. "Kid, please have some self-respect." Little, little, little kid. Little Taiping looked at Lu Feng in disbelief, then grunted, "What? A kid can take over all the outer cities of your Purple Night Kingdom in one night? You really don't know what's good for you."
Lu Feng looked at Xiao Taiping with amusement, but when he touched those slightly translucent pink lips, his heart pounded wildly. What was wrong with him?
Lu Feng grunted awkwardly, "Taiping? She must be the Crown Prince of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom." Incredibly, although she was only one year old, she seemed like an adult her age. So intelligent, and the speed at which she flew onto his horse showed just how terrifying her skill was. Even he himself was impressed. Such a young age, yet…
Little Taiping was slightly taken aback and said, "Yes, how did you know?" She then nuzzled against Lu Feng's chest, causing Lu Feng's usually cold face to turn bright red. Even his neck was slightly red; he was so cute. The soldiers of the Purple Night Kingdom were completely bewildered. What was going on? Did their general have a pedophilic tendency? The thought sent chills down their spines.
Little Taiping nestled in Lu Feng's arms, covering his mouth and giggling. He hadn't expected to win over such a beauty so quickly. "Didn't you want me to have a competition with you?" Lu Feng smiled slightly, stunning all the soldiers. Even a big, icy general could laugh? Where did the sun rise today? "I lost." His words caused an uproar.
"General, how could you have lost without even having a match?" a soldier stepped forward and asked boldly. "General, you are a god of war, how could you possibly lose?"
Little Taiping, nestled in Lu Feng's arms, lazily looked at the soldier, her pink lips curving into a beautiful arc. She deliberately stuck out her delicate, translucent little tongue and said, "Your general is thinking of you. Tell me, is it better for your Purple Night Kingdom to be completely wiped out, or for you to submit to my Ice Sea?" Her question stunned the little soldier.
He pondered for a moment, then glared angrily at Xiao Taiping and said, "General Lu Feng is a war god, how could he lose to you? He's just a child, yet he dares to act so arrogantly here. I'll beat him to a pulp." His words caused the soldiers to burst into laughter.
Taiping squinted her eyes and slightly parted her transparent pink lips, revealing a white, shiny, pointed tooth in little Taiping's mouth.
A fragrant aroma wafted over, and Lu Feng was slightly taken aback. He looked down at Taiping's small face, her slightly parted pink lips, and her increasingly sharp teeth. What was that? A chilling aura quickly spread, silencing the soldiers who had been laughing loudly.
Little Taiping floated up slowly, her small body hovering in mid-air, a black tulip prominently displayed on her forehead, so noble.
A soft, pink lip parted slightly, and a giggle escaped Taiping's lips. "What a delicious soul! It's been so long since I've tasted one. An evil soul, haha, what an ugly man!" These words stunned the entire army of the Purple Night Kingdom. The soldiers of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, however, remained calm and composed, though the adoration in their eyes as they looked at Taiping betrayed them. In their hearts, Taiping was a god.
Taiping stretched out her small hand in the air and beckoned to the soldier. In the blink of an eye, the soldier, who had been frozen in fear, floated right in front of Taiping. The soldier stared at Taiping in terror, his legs trembling uncontrollably.
Taiping's pointed teeth peeked out slightly. Suddenly, she paused, touched her tiny teeth with her small hand, and said, "What is this? Wow, do I have vampire genes in my body?" Everyone present was extremely annoyed. What was she doing at such a tense moment?
Little Taiping was overjoyed and couldn't help but burst into laughter. 'I wonder if they drink human blood?' His clear phoenix eyes suddenly turned red, coldly staring at the soldier before him, and he slowly uttered icy words, 'Open the Gate of Destruction! Imprison this ant who insulted me, and let him taste endless happiness!' (Happiness? Good heavens, are you crazy? Endless happiness in hell? Kid, are you out of your mind?)
As soon as Xiao Taiping finished speaking, a sudden, chilling wind arose, and the soldiers of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom knelt down, shouting "God!" The soldiers of the Purple Night Kingdom also knelt down involuntarily, overwhelmed by the divine power.
A powerful pressure pounded on everyone's hearts as a magnificent door, adorned with blooming tulips, slowly appeared. The door opened, releasing a stench of blood that sucked the man who had mocked Taiping inside. Then, the grand and imposing door slammed shut behind it. All anyone heard was a soft "Ah..." before the door vanished.
Xiaoping, who had been floating in mid-air, returned to her original state, lost consciousness, and fell from the sky. Lu Feng anxiously tiptoed up and caught the petite figure, only then realizing that he could move again. His heart was shaken, and filled with deep affection, but he didn't know that he had been captured.
Daylight moves slowly, but night comes quickly. A white figure flashed by, soaring high into the sky. A woman in white appeared, her beauty almost unreal. She rode atop a pure white tiger and leaned down to ask, "Xiaoxue, can you find it?" Xiaoxue nodded, sniffed the air, and suddenly accelerated, running in one direction.
In the dimly lit prison, a beautifully dressed woman walked in with light, graceful steps. "Is it all done?" she asked coldly. A jailer-looking man fawned, "Your Majesty, rest assured, it's all taken care of." The woman smiled slightly and tried to give the jailer some silver, but he refused it, grabbed her hand, and said lewdly, "I don't want this." He then touched her face, saying, "I want you." The woman feigned shyness and said, "You rascal, why don't you go find a place?" The jailer grinned and hurriedly turned to find a place.
The woman stared menacingly at the jailer's retreating figure. Then she turned and walked back into the cell.
(Your recommendations, favorites, and comments will equal an extra chapter!)
Handsome Men Gathering Chapter Sixty-Four: Will You Be My Man?
Chapter Sixty-Four: Be My Man, Please? In the endless darkness, the sound of whipping echoed, adding a touch of harmony to the darkness.
A beautifully dressed woman, seeking favor, approached with shuffling steps, her shapely hips swaying as she said, "Yu Xun, long time no see." She entered the cell, her alluring gaze fixed on the man on the rack. Though he was now ravaged, his voluptuous figure and captivating face still drove men mad. She glanced at the two jailers holding whips and said, "Stop beating him, you may leave." The two jailers looked at her with difficulty and said, "Your Highness, the Emperor has ordered that these punishments are indispensable daily." Indeed, this woman was Liu Qin Yao.
Liu Qinyao frowned impatiently and said, "Can't you understand what I'm saying?" The two jailers were somewhat embarrassed. Even though Liu Qinyao was the current emperor's daughter, she was still someone else's used shoe—everyone knew that. General Lu had publicly humiliated Liu Qinyao by calling her a used shoe. We admire her so much!
A fierce glint flashed in Liu Qinyao's eyes as she asked, "What did your boss tell you?" Her words made the two jailers tremble, and they both knelt down. "We'll take our leave now," they said, then hurriedly got up and left. (What secret could they possibly have that made them so afraid? What cowards!)
Now, only Liu Qinyao and Zi Yeyuxun remained in the cold, dark prison. Liu Qinyao sighed softly, looking at Zi Yeyuxun with tenderness in her eyes. "No matter what, you are still my first man, Liu Qinyao. Yuxun, look at Yao'er, okay?" Liu Qinyao looked at Zi Yeyuxun expectantly.
On the rack, Zi Ye Yu Xun lay lifeless, bound to his seat. His head was bowed, obscuring his expression. If it weren't for his faint breathing, one would easily mistake him for a dead man.
Liu Qinyao nervously stepped forward, tucking Zi Yeyuxun's disheveled hair behind her ear to reveal her alluring face. Zi Yeyuxun, with her eyes closed, resembled a broken rag doll, completely at someone's mercy.
Liu Qinyao excitedly stroked Zi Ye Yuxun's face and said, "It's this face, it's this face that I can't forget. Yuxun, Yuxun." Liu Qinyao excitedly stroked Zi Ye Yuxun's face, "I've always, always dreamed of stroking you like this, selfishly possessing you, even in my dreams it's you. Yuxun, open your eyes, I want to see your eyes, those affectionate eyes."
The person on the rack remained unresponsive. A flash of malice crossed Liu Qinyao's eyes. Her small hand slid down Zi Ye Yuxun's neck, caressing her body, as she smiled at that alluring face. Slowly, she kissed those pale lips, saying, "Give me Yuxun, I want her." (What a shameless woman, oh my god, I can't take it anymore.)
