Chapter 341 Ten beauties in the early Ming Dynasty

“A woman that every man wants to have?” Liao Zhiyuan laughed without believing it. He felt that Xue Xiao was too exaggerated, so he shook his head to retort, “You have never seen a real beauty, so you would think she is one of them. One day, if you have the privilege of seeing the group of beautiful women in the Imperial Harem, you will know who real beauties are. No wonder all men in the world want to be the emperor.”

Duan Xiaolou had been immersed in killing, but he did not forget to take the opportunity to remind Liao Zhiyuan to pay attention to his words, “Bro, keep your words only here. If you leave this door, none of them will be allowed to utter! Take care of your mouth!”

Liao Zhiyuan curled his lips and turned his head to educate Xue Xiao, a man who was from Nihon and was more than ten years older than him. He said in a persuasive manner, “What are the standards of a beautiful lady? Smooth jade face, feather-liked eyebrows, water-liked skin, slim shoulders, slender waist, catkin-liked hands, shell-liked teeth, being profound in words, orchids-liked breaths. Her beauty won’t fade as her age grows. However, there are no more than ten people meeting the standards in the world. The rest can only be regarded as fireflies fighting a moon. They only rely on makeups to be beautiful. Don’t you know that even a beauty like Zhao Feiyan had to put on makeup to be alluring? In other words, an ordinary beautiful girl in the world... Well, they don’t deserve the name and their face even couldn’t compare to their bodies.”

Xue Xiao followed him to count the number with his fingers. However, all ten fingers were used up but Liao Zhiyuan’s elegant words had not been finished yet. However, the turn was too abrupt, switching from the great elegant to the most vulgar, which made Xue Xiao feel bored. After evaluating the words, Xue Xiao nodded and smiled, “Master Liao, the woman upstairs not only has everything you mentioned but even surpasses them. Is she a real beauty?”

“Really?” Liao Zhiyuan observed Xue Xiao’s expression to see if he was joking. “The top ten beauties in the world I said are all famous and married. Except for them, I don’t know any other women can be so beautiful.”

Xue Xiao sincerely remarked, “That girl is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. She is the eleventh one! I think she is only 15 or 16 years old. Maybe she was too young to be discovered by you before. Now she has grown up and is more beautiful than any other beautiful thing in the world. If you don’t believe me, after Du Yao and I taste her, you could be the next!” As he said, he waved to the people fighting in the field, “The house is going to fall apart! Don’t shake Du Yao and that girl down! You should take a rest and wait for them. Duan Xiaolou, you are the fourth. Jiang Pi, you are the fifth!”

In fact, Jiang Pi already wanted to give up, but Duan Xiaolou was like having taken the potent medicine newly developed by Dongchang Organization to improve his energy. He was getting stronger as the fight went. Jiang Pi seemed to be the enemy who cut off the head of Duan Xiaolou’s father on the battlefield. Duan Xiaolou wanted to kill him for revenge. Except for halberd in his right hand, he was even using the small dagger with his left hand to raid Jiang Pi’s mouth.

It turned out that Duan Xiaolou did not forget Liao Zhiyuan’s instigation about cutting off Jiang Pi’s tongue so that he could no longer talk nonsense in the future.

Jiang Pi was close to being cut several times, and his teeth almost couldn’t bite the sharp blade. When he looked down, he saw a woman’s face in the center of the dagger. In a quick glance, he found that she was He Danggui. It turned out that Duan Xiaolou was also using this kind of dagger. He turned against him because he said something bad about her. Duan Xiaolou seemed to want to kill him.

Jiang Pi was extremely annoyed and yelled at the sky, “Dammit. I swear as long as I can escape from here, I will go to Luo’s Mansion and tie up that chick surnamed He. She won’t come home unless be tortured by every means I know!”

Liao Zhiyuan, who was watching the battle aside, said with a smile, “This is a good way. Don’t forget to invite me to watch the whole process when you do it.”

Xue Xiao was transferred to the imperial guards from the army a year ago. He got acquainted with Liao Zhiyuan and others only two months ago. He didn’t know who this “chick surnamed He” was and what she had to do with this fight. However, Duan Xiaolou’s furious expression scared him and he didn’t dare to ask Liao Zhiyuan about the details. Xue Xiao’s lightness art was in the first place of the Hero List, but his kung fu was far weaker than other commanders of the Imperial guards.

Liao Zhiyuan noticed Xue Xiao’s curiosity, so he kindly explained to him, “The woman with surname He is a beautiful woman. Though her skin was not in a healthy color, she was the eleventh one among the top ten beauties in the early Ming Dynasty which was reviewed by me. More importantly, she has a deep mind and her heart is as cold as the black ice from a thousand years ago. Her tongue is like a sharp knife. She does not value money at all. There are a lot of men loving her, but none of them could marry her. In my opinion, the difficulty of sleeping with all ten beauties equals sleeping with her. Chasing her is really a blow to a man’s self-esteem. The best man in the world and the most sincere and affectionate motion are worth nothing to her.”

“Oh?” Xue Xiao was stunned. “There is such a woman in the world. It is really weird. Since she is so lonely and arrogant, why should men pursue her? They should go to another ten beautiful women. Besides, her skin is not healthy. I don’t like that kind of women. No matter how beautiful their faces are, I feel weird because of their skin.”

“That’s because you haven’t seen her. When you see her someday, maybe you will be attracted by her.” Liao Zhiyuan wanted to find a drink, but not even one jar was next to him. As for the counter over there, the delicious wine on the shelf had already flowed to the earth.

He sighed. Then he took two bananas and handed one to Xue Xiao. He said sullenly, “This is people’s nature. Duan Xiaolou used to be one of these men, and he deserves it. None of us could stop him. Now he has got out of that abyss and he doesn’t go to Luo’s Mansion after arriving in Yangzhou City. However, his behavior is quite violent since he got here. Last time, he fought with Gao Jue only because Gao Jue said, ‘I often see her but I don’t want to see her. She is very annoying.’ Of course, that ‘her’ refers to He Danggui. As a result, Duan Xiaolou took a knife and wanted to hit Gao Jue’s head with it.”

Xue Xiao ate half a banana with two bites and came to the conclusion, “Duan Xiaolou has not let it go. Maybe someday he will go to Luo’s Mansion again.” Liao Zhiyuan dared to say Duan Xiaolou deserved it, but Xue Xiao didn’t. Duan Xiaolou was not only murderous, but also eager to fight with others. He was also the marquis with the highest rank among the imperial guards. Everyone was willing to flatter him. Who else dared to say he “deserved it.” But, Xue Xiao thought in mind that fighting for a woman was indeed a childish behavior.

Xue Xiao looked at the crumbling wall of the inn and asked worriedly, “The house won’t collapse later, right? Shall we ask the people upstairs to go out for their safety? Our brothers are all having good dreams.”

“It’s okay, let them sleep.” Liao Zhiyuan smiled without worries. “This inn doesn’t look very strong, but its wooden wall shell is made of fine steel that has been refined three times. A hard knife won’t leave any marks. Years ago, when His Majesty came here with the troops, he lived in this dense steel fortress.” After eating a banana, he threw the peel into the battlefield like Xue Xiao did, adding challenges to their life and death fight.

Looking at the furious Duan Xiaolou, Liao Zhiyuan lay lazily on the animal skin chair and concluded, “The two are high, but the inn is tougher. Duan Xiaolou now is the second Gao Jue, who has lost his beloved wife, but he is more cold-blooded. All his attacks reveal the desperate killing intent without defending at all. He Danggui is a terrible woman. How did she turn Duan Xiaolou into this monster?”

“He Danggui?” Xue Xiao tilted his head, “This is the woman’s name? I may have heard this name somewhere. How old is she?”

Liao Zhiyuan yawned, “I don’t know, but she is not too young. She seemed to be rejuvenating from a thirty-year-old woman, but she has shrunk into a teenager’s appearance. Otherwise, how could she play with so many men? I don’t believe she was only fourteen.”

Xue Xiao was shocked by the weird words. He was still full of curiosity, “What has she done that makes you hate her?”

Liao Zhiyuan pointed to Duan Xiaolou who was on the battlefield. He squinted and yawned, “No need to look through the specific process. You should just look at the results. The results can explain everything. Hey! Those two pairs upstairs. Are you done? We are tired!”

Xue Xiao made a silent gesture and listened carefully. Amid the sound of weapon clashes, he could hear the joyous shouts between Song Fei and the young lady he planned to accept as long as he listened carefully. “Brother and sister” turned into “husband and wife”. “I don’t want it” became “I want more.” The loving sense was so strong as if they had been together for a long time, though they had met for the first time today. Whether Song Fei was willing to give out her concubine to Master Liao?

More than a dozen guest rooms were on the second floor with at least 18 people living in. All of them had great hearing ability, but their sleeping ability was even more amazing. The downstairs was noisy, but they could still sleep in this loud noise. Xue Xiao said in his mind that all of the imperial guards were weird people. Among them, Duan Xiaolou and Liao Zhiyuan were the weirdest ones. Gao Jue and Jiang Yi were in the middle. However, even the most gentle, harmless, rational and normal commander Lu Jiangbei was a little bit weird. In short, this place had gathered all kinds of weird people. Maybe they became weird, depressive, and maverick because they had helped the emperor do too many evil things.

Right now, Jiang Pi was suffering from several bloody injuries, but his brother Jiang Yi, whose kung fu ranked the top three in the imperial guards, could still sleep there. He even did not come out to check the situation. What the hell was this? Liao Zhiyuan moved his neck lazily while Duan Xiaolou was waving his weapon near to him. Besides, Jiang Pi was likely to die within 30 strokes. Incredibly, instead of the horror and despair of the dying people, he was wearing a self-sufficient, excited, and bloodthirsty look as if the blood was flowing from others’ bodies. This was so weird.

Xue Xiao listened to the movements on the second floor again but still could only hear the whispers of Song Fei and his woman. Du Yao and that girl should have made more sounds now, but their room was silent.

Liao Zhiyuan also heard the screaming of the woman under Song Fei, who was played in many ways, but he couldn’t tell whether she was crying or laughing. Liao Zhiyuan felt that his veins were almost broken because of the sounds. He stood up and stared at Xue Xiao, “Has Du Yao finished? I can’t wait for him anymore. Can I join them?”

Xue Xiao’s ears had almost touched the beam above, but he still couldn’t hear any sound. After a while, he touched his nose sullenly and said, “Master Liao, please be patient. Du Yao likes that girl very much. The girl seems to be made of water and white jade. I have begged him for a long time before he promised to let me try this girl after he finished his job. As for you, you have to go personally to beg him to show you his girl.”

“Ha!” Liao Zhiyuan laughed contemptuously, “Is she really an incredible beauty? Xue Xiao, you have piqued my interest. I have to see her!” He stood up as he said.

Xue Xiao hurriedly pushed him back to his seat and explained in a low voice, “I played a prank on him and I have put some philter on a nail which was stepped on by the anxious Du Yao. This kind of medicine is as fierce as a fire, and he won’t spare that girl without a couple of hours... Moreover, even you should follow the order.”

Liao Zhiyuan curled his lips, “I just want to take a look at the woman’s face. I didn’t say that I was going to rob you. You think she is a treasure, but I don’t think so.”

Xue Xiao waved his hand and smiled, “That is because you haven’t seen her yet. If you see her, you will do it.”

“Why? What kind of fairy is she?” Liao Zhiyuan’s curiosity was completely aroused. Regardless of Xue Xiao’s obstruction, he must go up and see her face. But at this moment, a shrill scream sounded from the second floor, “Ahhh!” The sound could even terrify ghosts, but it was a unique voice in an inn full of men. The scream sounded throughout the inn, and even Duan Xiaolou and Jiang Pi were slightly affected because they wanted to stop their fight.

“What’s wrong?” Liao Zhiyuan paused.

“I don’t know.” Xue Xiao guessed, “Maybe that girl has woken up. She was knocked out by Du Yao just now. After waking up, she found a big man was on her body. It makes sense to scream out.”
