If they had ever taken a boat out to sea once, they wouldn't think what people stir up counts as waves at all... Ouch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wind was fierce and the waves surged, suddenly tossing the small boat into mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person speaking gave a sharp cry, performed a swallow-like flip into the air, and then drifted down like a falling leaf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Miao beside her, however, sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you never heard the gossip about me in the Jianghu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person patted the water droplets off her chest; her palace-style dress was stretched tight, and the pat made her tremble, much like rippling water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Which gossip is the Lord referring to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it that you kill across the fields and skin people to drink with wine, or that you hold the Son of Heaven hostage and wield power for your own use, or that you are deep in schemes and vengeful?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh... I know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tilted her head and said to Li Miao with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are referring to the gossip that says you have countless confidantes, are a lecher among men, forcibly taking countless outstanding heroines into your chambers, and yet have no regard for affection, even abandoning the leader of the Ming Cult, eventually leading to the disaster in the capital... those rumors?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have naturally heard them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Miao's mouth twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you wear this palace dress, and when you could clearly use a 'thousand-catty drop' to suppress the rocking, you insist on flipping into mid-air in front of me... Was that intentional?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman was all smiles, nodding with utmost honesty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You might not know, but I am an old friend of Commander An. Among the Four Young Masters, we are the only two who are familiar with each other, and we have often corresponded by letter since he took office.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He knows my admiration for you very well. Come to think of it, I am extremely grateful that he recommended me to you, so how could I not seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Miao shook his head helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This last one of the \"Four Young Masters of Wine, Lust, Wealth, and Qi,\" the \"Wealth Young Master\" Lu Wushuang, was actually a woman... and a woman of peerless beauty at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, it wasn't that he didn't know about the \"Four Young Masters\"; he had naturally heard of the name and deeds of this last young master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Colorful Young Master,\" Lu Wushuang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Known in the Jianghu as the \"Money-Grubbing Young Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She came from the White-Clothed Assassins of the Blood Garment Tower, betrayed the sect to establish her own, and built an inn in the Shaanxi area, doing intelligence and assassin business. It was said that as long as the money was enough, anything could be done, but as long as there was no money, even one's own brother would be swept out the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this only explained her name \"Money-Grubbing Young Master,\" and did not explain how she got the name \"Colorful Young Master\"... It was very simple: this Young Master Lu loved beauties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ninety percent of the money she earned was used to build a massive palace city to house the beauties she had collected for her harem. The name \"Wushuang City\" was also renowned throughout the Jianghu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely because of this, and because Lu Wushuang always traveled in disguise, no one in the Jianghu actually knew she was a woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Li Miao silent, Lu Wushuang said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since the Lord knows my heart, and you are not a pedantic or conservative person, yet you still have concerns... Could it be that you think my reputation is bad?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You need not worry. How would Brother An send an impure woman to your side? I just like looking at beautiful women; I have never really done anything, and I have never even touched a man.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rather, I often talk about your deeds in my Wushuang City, and my sisters are all deeply infatuated with you... If you submit to me, the entire Wushuang City will be yours. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Miao shook his head and did not respond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Wushuang was also tactful; seeing that Li Miao did not want to pick up the topic, she naturally changed the subject.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are already approaching Japan. After this wave, we should be able to see the coastline. However, Japan is currently in internal chaos, and many bandits are plundering merchant ships along the coast. The direction we are heading is exactly a border area, so we will likely run into some trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, she turned her gaze to one side, giggled, and pointed with a fair, slender hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look, isn't it here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Miao had long since looked over there.\u003C\u002Fp>",825,"2026-06-17T21:41:17.211Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","1d78118b48b3c1943fc9995867664239bfc18656541d044ecec612597cf951f7","the-imperial-enforcer-with-an-eight-hour-workday-chapter-469","the-imperial-enforcer-with-an-eight-hour-workday-chapter-467",647,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-imperial-hound-on-an-eight-hour-shift-cover.jpg"]
