Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 2037 - 2045: Ba Tulu’s Provocation (Part 2)

The attendant heard this, breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed, saying, "Yes, the Prince didn’t have any serious issues. Just a good sleep will be enough. Master Mu, please go ahead!"

Chong Wu turned around, seemingly about to take a step to leave. Taking advantage of a moment when the attendant was unprepared, he suddenly raised his palm to strike towards the couch.

For this strike, he only used ten percent of his power, the palm wind just barely able to open the bed curtains.

"Oh my, Master Mu, what are you doing?"

The attendant of Wanyan Chao cried out. At this moment, under the floating bed curtain, they saw ’Wanyan Chao’ lying on the couch on his side with his face towards the inside, completely still.

Chong Wu couldn’t see the face of the person on the couch, but he was certain that the person on the couch was definitely not Wanyan Chao, but someone impersonating him. If it were Wanyan Chao lying there, with his kungfu abilities, he wouldn’t possibly remain indifferent after receiving Chong Wu’s inner strength, unless he were truly terminally ill.

However, if he were terminally ill, the guard under his command would have already been in complete panic. How could they remain so calm and composed?

Therefore, he coldly snorted and reprimanded, "Bold slave, you dare to conceal it from this young master? Tell me, where exactly has the Prince gone?"

The attendant, seeing that they had been exposed, had no choice but to kneel down, crying with a mournful face, "Master Mu, this servant is also ordered to stand guard here. As to where the Prince has gone, this servant knows nothing at all..."

....

The best Qingyi Troupe theater building in the Capital of Great Jin was packed and bustling with people.

On the lavishly decorated stage with a background of opulence and splendor, an opera actress dressed as the Empress was singing with drunken subtlety. Those majestic and magnificent hall sceneries were exceedingly exquisite and resplendent, truly encapsulating: "Glazed bell, thick amber, small groove drops of real pearl red, cooking dragon cannon phoenix jade fat cry, embroidered curtains surround the fragrant breeze. Playing the dragon flute and beating the frog drum; bright tooth song, thin waist dance." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

However, no matter how beautiful the scenery was, it couldn’t compare in the slightest to the young man in the private room.

The young man appeared to be fifteen or sixteen, wearing Consort Yang’s golden double Xiao Haitang brocade silk dress, overlaid with a dark purple embroidered powder peony wide-sleeved feathered robe. At his waist was a water green colored waistband, and in his fair, jade-like hand, he held a half-open, half-closed small fragrant colored folding fan.

’He’ stood so flamboyantly in the most expensive private room on the second floor, looking down at the stage below.

No matter how elaborate the colors were, they all became mere accompaniment to this young man’s peerless beauty. ’He’ was dazzling, crystalline, and transcendent. But there was also an indescribable astonishment and bewitching allure in his brows, a heartbreaking beauty, simply harrowing.

Peerless elegance.

The audience below was stunned by this breathtakingly beautiful appearance, utterly devoid of any interest in watching the opera actors hum and sing onstage. Almost everyone turned their heads, lifting their gaze towards the direction of the private room. Amidst the swirling thoughts, that boy seemingly favored by Heaven and Earth, smiled faintly in the direction of the audience from behind the half-opened folding fan.

An essence lingered between his brows and eyes, making people unable to read, comprehend, or fully grasp it; compelling them to look again, and then again.

"Wanyan Chao, why do I feel they’re not watching the opera, but rather looking at me?"

Behind the folding fan, Mingzhu laughed a bit nervously. It was her first time disguising as a man to sneak out of the palace to play with Wanyan Chao, and she feared being discovered would lead Imperial Father and Imperial Mother to feel disappointed in her.

Wanyan Chao, who was pouring her tea, heard her words, quickly put down the teacup, joined her at the railing, saw the amazed gazes downstairs, and unwittingly pulled her back inside, saying, "Not all of them are looking at you! With you here, all the world’s things fade into insignificance, not to mention a play!"

Mingzhu, upon hearing this, immediately uneasily said, "We should leave, there are too many people here. If someone recognizes me and it reaches the ears of Imperial Father and Imperial Mother, they will surely be angry."
