Chapter 341: Harem Of Three Thousand Beauties

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After a while, Xu Que changed his clothes and left the inn. He followed the manservant and got inside a horse-drawn carriage!

After driving past several streets, the carriage stopped abruptly in front of a rather remote mansion.

The mansion before him was situated at a rather remote location, but its furnishings and decorations seemed brand new.

It was actually a great coincidence as the Second Prince had previously wanted to keep some pit bulls in a mansion, and he had thus ordered for a mansion to be built. The mansion happened to have been completed by then and hence, the prince had decided to give it to Xu Que.

Outside the mansion, the Second Prince was present, along with his guards as well.

Behind him, there were 3,000 delicate and reserved-looking young women standing carefully to one side!

All these women wore somewhat tense and worried expressions. Xu Que was able to tell with just one glance that the Second Prince must have gathered these women from the people.

In order to fulfil the terms of the bet with Xu Que, the Second Prince had abused his authority and had forcefully gathered 3,000 women in a short time.

"Your Royal Highness, Young Master Xu is here!"

The manservant who was also the driver of the carriage got down and paid respects to the Second Prince!

"Hmph!"

The Second Prince responded indifferently. He was certainly not in a good mood and did not say a word.

He just wanted to quickly hand these things to Xu Que, tear the IOU up, make some sarcastic remarks, and finally go back to the Palace to make preparations for the Imperial Tombs Contest!

But would Xu Que let him off so easily?

This guy was here to create trouble for the Second Prince.

"Young Master Xu, we've arrived!"

As the manservant spoke, Xu Que pulled back the drape to look at his surroundings, leaning his body forward slightly.

He acted like someone of noble status, glancing at the Second Prince and his men nonchalantly then furrowing his eyebrows.

"You're giving me this shabby mansion? I don't want it. Take me back to the inn, I'm going back to sleep!" Xu Que released the drape and sat back inside the carriage.

It was obvious Xu Que had not looked at the mansion properly at all. He had only taken one quick glance and retreated back into the carriage.

The Second Prince frowned with a hint of anger. "Xu Que, don't be too much! This mansion was only built recently. How can it have anything to do with the word 'shabby'?"

Whiz!

Xu Que pulled open the drape and revealed his face to the Second Prince with a smirk. "Can't you even take a joke? Tsk, tsk, Second Fatty, you have no sense of humor!"

"I've completed all your requests. Where's the IOU?" said the Second Prince with an unhappy face, ignoring what Xu Que had said.

"Nah, it's not up to you to decide if you've completed my requests. In accordance with formalities, I will need to conduct a check!"

Xu Que hopped down from the horse-drawn carriage and strutted over to the Second Prince.

He looked at the large group of women behind the Second Prince.

"Ladies," he said, "is there a girl called 'San Qian' amongst you?"

Who is San Qian?

When the 3,000 women heard that, they looked at each other with confusion.

The Second Prince had not expected that either. He was stunned for a while, before his expression changed. He guessed what Xu Que was trying to do.

"Xu Que, you want to play word games with me? Isn't that too childish?"

The Second Prince looked gloomy.

Xu Que gave a laugh and took out the IOU. "Second Fatty, I'm not playing word games with you," he shook his head. "This paper here states the terms clearly! Hou Gong which means harem, Jia Li which means beauty or beauties, and San Qian!"

When he declared that, everyone's mouths twitched!

Isn't it clear enough that you're playing word games?

'San Qian' means 3,000. Therefore 'Jia Li San Qian' clearly means 3,000 beauties, is that not?

Who would have known that you are looking for a beauty with the name 'San Qian' instead? How in the world am I going to find her? the Second Prince cursed in his head.

"Atrocious!" retorted the Second Prince angrily. "Last night, you didn't specify clearly that you wanted a girl called 'San Qian'. This prince will not be held responsible for this!"

Xu Que shrugged his shoulders. "Fine, it is true that I didn't specify it clearly enough!"

"Eh?"

The Second Prince was taken aback with Xu Que's unexpected reply.

Everyone there was stunned too:

With that shameless character of his, will he really concede on this matter?

It can't be, right?

This is so totally not that guy's style!

...

"Since you've agreed, then it's settled!" said the Second Prince coldly. "The 3,000 beauties are here. If you don't believe me, you can count them personally yourself!"

"There is no need to count!"

Xu Que dismissed that by waving his hand magnanimously. However, the next moment, he pointed at the IOU. "But then again, although I did not specify clearly I wanted a beauty by the name of 'San Qian', gathering 3,000 beauties out of nowhere is not right of you either, alright?"

"What do you mean?" said the Second Prince who furrowed his eyebrows. "These women are the good-looking ones in the Imperial City. Are you still not satisfied with them?" He thought that Xu Que wanted to find fault with him by picking on the looks of the women!

Once again, Xu Que pointed at the words in the IOU. "The focus is the word 'harem'," said Xu Que seriously. "Do you dare to say that all these beautiful women are from the harem?"

Harem?

When everyone there heard that, their expressions changed so abruptly that they nearly coughed out blood!

Nobody would have thought that just these six simple Chinese characters could be played like that by Xu Que.

Earlier on, he had asked for a beauty by the name of 'San Qian' (which also means three thousand). Then luckily for the Second Prince, he had relented. But now he was claiming that the 3,000 beauties should be from the actual Royal Harem!

F*ck! Brother, are you going to start a rebellion or something?

The 3,000 beauties in the Royal Harem belonged to the Emperor. Are you saying you want to snatch the Emperor's women?

You dare to speak such words in front of the Second Prince? You're asking to get killed!

"Xu Que, you're audacious!" snapped the Second Prince with murderous intent!

Xu Que's words were enough to land himself punishment by death.

"Yo, yo, yo, don't be angry! If you're feeling bitter about this, you can bring your father here. In all regards, the IOU was not written by me."

Xu Que was grinning cheekily. He had nothing to fear!

The Second Prince had just been on the verge of ordering his men to apprehend Xu Que. When he heard that, he went pale and quickly gave up the idea.

Yes, the IOU had been written by himself.

If he went to his father, the Emperor, he would get punished.

If it was not for the fact that the heir would be chosen during this sensitive period of time, he would not have felt so bothered. To boot, he could not go to the Emperor now as it would greatly affect his image!

Therefore, the Second Prince could only swallow this up as he did not want the Emperor to know of such a scandal.

As the prince thought this, he started to get wary.

Gritting his teeth, he took a deep breath and stared at Xu Que coldly. "What do you want?"

"Not much. Everyone knows that I'm a handsome man with principles," said Xu Que, who behaved as if he was a generous man. "Since Your Royal Highness is unable to complete my requests, then you'll have to compensate me by bequeathing me all of your wealth. Then I'll be merciful and treat this as if it had never happened!"

Everyone's eyelids twitched.

What? All the Second Prince's wealth to you?

Godd*mn! You have a f*cking big appetite, don't you?

You're not afraid of dying?

However, the Second Prince appeared to be very calm. "All of my valuable items are inside this storage ring," said the prince with a faint smile. "Wealth is a worldly possession itself. Since you want it, I'll give it to you!"

With that, under the shocked gazes of the people around them, he removed the storage ring on his finger and flung it towards Xu Que.
