Chapter 836 It Was A Feeling That He was Unable To Control
Long Xiao clenched his fists tightly as his gaze swept across the Danjue beauties standing in his courtyard. There was an unfathomable dark look in his eyes. When his subordinate noticed his expression and added it up with what Zhao Qian had just said, he quickly understood something. He asked with caution, “Liege, allow me to bring these beauties into your room…”
“There is no need. Just settle them down somewhere and get someone to prepare a bucket of ice water for me.” Long Xiao’s expression was cold as he entered the room after giving his orders.
His subordinate scratched his head in puzzlement. The Prince of Xiangyang had already ended up in such a situation. Why not enjoy these women instead of requesting a bucket of ice water?
This perplexed his subordinate greatly.
At the coaching inn.
Wanyan Jin was also feeling quite a bit of discomfort at the same time.
After seeing off Zhao Qian, his subordinate gulped as he stared at the Xiangyang beauties and asked, “Prince Jin, what should we do with all these beauties?”
Wanyan Jin shut his eyes as green veins popped up on the back of his hand which was clutching the window bar. An unnatural blush appeared on his originally pale face as he said hoarsely, “Take them away and settle them down somewhere. Get someone to prepare a bucket of ice water for me.”
His subordinate did not understand this.
These Cathay beauties were all so beautiful. They had an indescribable sort of feminine charm about them that Danjue women could not compare to.
He did not know how to describe it, but just by staring at those slender, thin waists was enough to incur a burning desire.
He was born in Danjue and had never seen a woman as delicate and gentle as them.
It was the fragile demeanor they possessed that could melt a man’s heart so much, one would be overcome by the urge to have them in his arms and administer tender, loving care.
However, Prince Jin did not even give them a look, which his subordinate felt was a huge waste.
By the looks of Prince Jin, he had clearly been spiked with some sort of aphrodisiac. However, there were so many beauties waiting for him to bed. Why would he not desire any of them, but chose to have ice water instead?
Even so, the subordinate had always understood Wanyan Jin’s ways. He did not dare go against Wanyan Jin’s wishes and quickly brought the beauties away with him.
Once his subordinate had left with the beauties, a chilling look appeared in Wanyan Jin’s eyes.
This was probably Lu Liangwei’s way of returning the favor of him offering the beauties as tribute.
An unfathomable emotion swirled in his eyes as he thought about what Zhao Qian had said to him.
A vague smile appeared on his face after a while.
This Empress of Great Shang seemed more interesting than he thought.
No wonder Long Yang had never been near a woman all these years, and only had eyes for Lu Liangwei.
The most interesting thing about this was that Lu Liangwei actually knew how to make poison.
He had always thought that she was nothing but a mere daughter of the Grand Duke Family, a girl who was nothing more than a pretty face.
He suddenly understood something when he remembered the last battle with Great Shang when the battle steeds were suddenly spooked. There was also the battle before that, when the Great Shang soldiers were acting weirdly, not to mention the time there was explosive smoke set off amidst the Danjue soldiers.
It seemed like those strange occurrences during the last two battles were most possibly Lu Liangwei’s doing.
The strongest Danjue cavalry had somehow lost the battle before the fight even began, which subsequently caused the other soldiers to be so scared they lost their drive for battle. This had resulted in Great Shang having an easy victory.
The main reason for him coming to Great Shang was to find out exactly what sort of talent there was to be found in the country.
All this proved that Lu Liangwei was no ordinary woman.
However, she was so young and only fifteen. Could she really have such capability?
If that was true, bringing her back to Danjue would benefit them greatly.
An indecipherable emotion passed through his eyes.
He did not have time to think about this any longer. His forehead now was covered in extensive and beady sweat and there was a flame burning all over his body.
It was a feeling that he was unable to control.
His subordinate soon returned carrying ice water.
Wanyan Jin’s eyes narrowed as he watched smoke rise from the chill of the ice water in the bathtub. He jumped in without hesitation.
