I'm the One They Call White Dragon in the Waves
It was just a fleeting glimpse.
Zhang Qingyan's eyes widened.
He stood there, stunned, as if he had lost his soul.
As the son of the Minister of the Ministry of War who frequented Brothels and roamed the Capital,
Zhang Qingyan has seen far too many handsome men and beautiful women.
Yet none of them could compare to even a fraction of the person opposite them.
That's a world of difference, a path between immortals and mortals.
This is just the appearance.
Not to mention the aloof and otherworldly air about the person in front of him.
Like the bright moon in the sky,
They are out of place in this world full of self-interest and filth.
Even when leaning back on a chair, with a casual posture and languid expression, it did not conceal his aloof and otherworldly temperament; on the contrary, it still exuded a unique and unrestrained charm.
Zhang Qingyan felt that she had truly broadened her horizons today.
No wonder such people can live in this magnificent palace, surrounded by palace eunuchs and top-notch imperial guards.
He is qualified.
No,
To be able to live there for him, to be able to serve him at all times,
This palace was the greatest honor for these eunuchs.
If I weren't the only son of the Zhang Household
Zhang Qingyan even wanted to cut herself off and then serve him closely all day long.
That shameless Lu Xiuyan keeps bragging about being the most handsome man in the Capital.
Zhang Qingyan really wanted to grab the other person by the ear and pull him over to take a good look.
What truly defines the most handsome man in the Capital?
Wrong,
What truly defines the most handsome man in the world?
"How dare you! You don't even kneel before Immortal!"
That refined yet cold voice rang in my ears again, but this time it carried an undeniable sternness.
What?
Immortal?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qingyan felt as if struck by lightning, her mind going blank.
No wonder she's so stunningly beautiful, no wonder she's so aloof and otherworldly.
It turned out that the person before me was actually Immortal.
"Thump..."
Zhang Qingyan knelt down immediately, without the slightest hesitation.
The humility of his attitude and the piety of his expression
He was even more respectful to him than to his own father.
"This humble one, Zhang Qingyan, pays homage to the Immortal. May the Immortal enjoy eternal bliss and live as long as the heavens. My admiration for the Immortal is like a surging river, endless and unstoppable, like the Yellow River overflowing its banks."
Gao Yunyi: "..."
Chief Eunuch: "..."
What a smooth-talking, obsequious brat!
Our judgment was correct; the Eastern Depot needs talent like this.
I don't know why,
From the first moment I saw Zhang Qingyan
Gao Yunyi admired him very much.
"I heard you're good at having fun?"
Gao Yunyi asked with a half-smile.
Upon hearing the Immortal's question,
Zhang Qingyan felt as if she were hearing celestial music, and instantly felt her entire being elevated.
It's as if it has been purified.
Cleanse your mind of all that yellow waste.
"I'm done playing! I'll never play again! I'll turn over a new leaf, repent, study hard, be filial to my parents, pass the imperial examinations, achieve military merit, bring glory to my ancestors, and make a name for myself."
Zhang Qingyan thought the Immortal was blaming him for the many dissolute things he had done in the past.
Then, weeping and wailing, he made a frantic vow.
They wanted to seek the forgiveness of the Immortals.
Gao Yunyi: "..."
No,
You have abandoned evil and turned to good, reformed your ways.
Then what use are you to me?
"Drag him out, beat him up first, then throw him away."
Gao Yunyi waved his hand gently.
What?
Zhang Qingyan was startled awake, her face filled with astonishment, and she hadn't even had time to wipe away her tears.
I have abandoned darkness and embraced light, and reformed myself.
The Immortal actually wants to punish me.
Wrong,
That's not what I meant by "Immortal".
Use your brain! You're usually so clever when you're fooling your parents.
Just as several eunuchs entered from outside the hall, intending to drag him out and beat him,
Suddenly, Zhang Qingyan had a flash of inspiration and understood everything.
"Etc."
Zhang Qingyan raised his hand to stop the surrounding eunuchs, then straightened his back and spoke in a righteous and awe-inspiring voice.
"That's right, I am the most famous playboy in the Capital, known as the White Dragon in the Waves."
"I know every Brothel, Gambling Den, and tavern in the Capital like the back of my hand."
He was proficient in everything from Gambling Den and betting in brothels to Brothel racing, cockfighting, falconry, and dog walking.
Gao Yunyi smiled.
This is exactly the kind of talent I've been looking for.
Why not be a proper playboy?
Why bother taking exams for official titles or striving for military achievements?
That's simply neglecting their proper duties.
The chief eunuch was also stunned.
Zhang Qingyan once again refreshed his understanding and worldview.
They actually talked about this kind of irresponsible thing with such confidence and righteous indignation.
That's absolutely shameless.
What a talent!!
"Immortal, I've finished speaking. Now you can do as you please, whether you want to fight or kill me."
Zhang Qingyan said, her neck stiff.
"I won't hit you, I won't kill you, you just need to do one thing."
Gao Yunyi looked at the other person with admiration in his eyes.
"Please speak, Immortal. As long as it is within my power, Zhang Qingyan will do it wholeheartedly, even at the cost of my life."
Zhang Qingyan's expression changed again; he knelt on the ground with a fawning and obsequious look.
He looked more like a eunuch than the palace attendants present.
"What you need to do is simple: just do what you usually do as usual, but today, you have to take me with you."
Gao Yunyi said with a smile.
What???
After hearing the Immortal's words,
Zhang Qingyan's scalp tingled instantly.
The Immortal actually asked me to take him to Brothels and Gambling Dens...
My dad will definitely beat me to death if he finds out.
Thinking about this,
Zhang Qingyan felt her whole body go limp; she was so frightened her soul seemed to have flown out of her body.
The chief eunuch standing nearby was in no better shape.
My legs went weak and my whole body trembled.
If His Majesty finds out that the Immortal went to Brothels Gambling Dens, can he still save his head?
I reckon all the eunuchs and guards in the entire Temporary Palace Villa will be executed along with their entire families.
Oh, Immortals!!
Please, please stop being so willful.
If you find the food in the villa unpalatable, I will replace it with a new batch of delicacies.
If you find the dancers' movements not alluring or graceful enough, your servant will arrange a new piece for you, shall we?
But before the chief eunuch could utter his words of dissuasion,
The Immortal's cold and indifferent eyes had already swept over.
Then,
The words that were about to be spoken were swallowed back down.
The chief eunuch suddenly awoke with a start.
He is a lackey.
A servant must obey his master's orders; whatever the master commands, the servant will do without the slightest disobedience.
This is the rule, and it's our duty.
"What, you can't do it?"
Gao Yunyi looked at Zhang Qingyan, who was now limp and lifeless below.
Upon hearing this,
Zhang Qingyan raised her face, which was filled with shock and panic. She wanted to refuse, but after seeing the Immortal's emotionless eyes,
The words of refusal that were in my heart could no longer be uttered.
"I... did..."
